LET'S ARGUE ABOUT VIDEO GAMES

The original gameboy was a testament to how powerful a marketing juggernaut Nintendo was in those days. You could have painted Nintendo on a dog turd and it would have sold a million units

It's his fault for giving you the receipt for the damn gameboy.

[Pentegarn]

Day after Christmas = no receipt required day, everyone knows that

[k0k0]

Yeah, return policies were so relaxed back then also. I'm sure my 11 year old self could probably cry his way to getting it returned.

So Nintendo's slashing the 3DS' price by $80 and the early adopters/idiots will be getting 20 free downloadable games for their trouble/idiocy. Some of them will be exclusive to those early adopters, though for how long, no one knows.

It's suddenly become easier for me to justify getting one of these, considering I don't even have a DS anymore.

[k0k0]

I'm one of the people who sees 3D as a fad/gimmick. Every time some new 3D technology comes out, every movie at the time gets made into 3D. Then it all but goes away for 10 years. No thanks, I'll wait for holograms, the true 3D.

[Fathom Zero]

I actually think that this is how 3D is going to be best accomplished, with the two off-set interlaced displays. It's already in TVs now and doesn't require stupid glasses. All you need is a camera in the TV to judge a person's position and adjust the display and BOOM - you got cheap, easy 3D.

I won't debate the fad nature of it with ya. It's already been done to death.

[k0k0]

I might be biased because 3D gives me a headache, even with the glasses kind. The 3D tv's now suck because of the small viewing angle, and your proposed version would suck because it's only fitting to one person. The coolest feature of the 3D televisions is the ability to play split screen multiplayer on the same tv without the split screen. I haven't done it so I don't know how if that would bother my eyes or not.

[Grislygus]

I actually want the 3ds to playportable street fighter REALLY bad, but since I wouldn't be caught dead with one in public, that kind of defeats the purpose of a handheld.


SUPER jealous of i-phone users playing street fighter with the virtual touchscreen arcade consoles displayed under the action

[Fathom Zero]

I've got the Street Fighter for the iPhone. It's tight.

[darkvare]

the volt version?

[Fathom Zero]

Naw, the regular Street Fighter IV.

[WhiteRat]

i just want to know if you can fuck the 3ds

[The Nun Eater]

Sounds like a horrible food item though. I bet you could probably find assburgers in Wal-Mart.

If you could, I probably wouldn't feel so bad about wasting $250 on mine. Especially with a $80 price cut in just a few more weeks.

I like your quote style. Also, you can fuck anything.

[k0k0]

I was wondering what was up with the quote he made too. A++

[The Nun Eater]

I was way to intoxicated to be on a forum. In my drunken blur I decided it would be easier to cut and copy than to press a simple button. Just goes to show you the good the comes from drinking.

[Grislygus]

Yeah, fantastic. Moving on immediately.

What the fuck is with the Kinect? I just got back from an all-nighter and this fucking guy brought his 360 and his Kinect, plugged them in, and kept trying to get other people to play. I didn't even know it existed, and I just googled it and found out that it's ONE HUNDRED AND FIFTY DOLLARS

Is everyone in America pretty much committed to going full retard at this point? I seriously would have been less irritated if someone has rented a goddamned karaoke machine

[Dr. Boogie]

I guess there are enough people out there who like Just Dance a whole lot.

I can't see myself buying one, if only because I don't have the required amount of space to set one up.


Did anyone take that guy up on his offer, or was it enough to see he had brought a Kinect to turn everyone against him?

[k0k0]

I wish the wii never came out because we'll be seeing a lot more of this kind of bullshit. I am tired of shaking a controller or trying to waggle something so that I can make someone on the screen do it. Give me a real controller and I can do that exact same thing but a lot easier and a lot faster. It doesn't put me in the game at all, it takes me out of it.

[Grislygus]

A few people did, but it was awkward and they eventually stopped because no one else went near it

[Fathom Zero]

I'm only about 4 feet away from it.

It's pretty cool, I guess. I liked playing with it more than the Wii.

Also, a new game from the guy who made Panzer Dragoon is coming to the Kinect, as is the new Steel Batallion and Suda 51's Kinect game, which is obviously going to kick ass. Child of Eden is already out.

So these games, pretty much.

[Zomboid]

Yay. You have to jump around to play. I sure hated being comfortable and relaxed while playing games.

[The Nun Eater]

It's Microsoft's way of keeping up with whats trendy without introducing a motion controller. I wish console producers would get back to upgrading core functions instead of constantly introducing the next gimmick to fatten there already overinflated pockets.
