The 3D Golf game on the eShop is worth a download, plays like Everybody's Golf series of games. But in 3D of course. Cheep too at £5.49. 3D Xevious looks weird, they have added the depth to the original game so that ground and sky targets are clearly defined.
It's a nicely built device. Feels as solidly constructed as the Wii and GBA SP, and original GB.
Battery life is laughable for a handheld.
It's like playing games in a lift. Too much muzak and plinky sounds everywhere.
The 3D is nice. However, the distance it has to be held for the effect to work properly is ludicrously small. I've not played a handheld that close to my face since I was seven and signicantly shorter than I am now. Playing it at a comfortable distance makes my eyes strain hard and dampens the effect. As such there's no way I'd buy one for use with any 3D games.
The analogue nub is superb. I prefer it to the sticks on a 360 or PS3 pad. They've done a brilliant job with it for old DS games too. Playing Mario Kart DS with the nub is vastly superior to playing with the dpad, even though the DS didn't have analogue input.
The most entertainment we had out of it was stress testing the Pokedex image recognition by pointing the DS at a monitor with loads of Pokemon markers on it...
Nice novelty, lets see what Nintendo can do next though.
Def buy one now. It shouldn't have been over £150 in the first place. Don't care if it's 6D or can turn into a real house. A handheld at handheld prices.
I've just got one today, ordered it online but don't know whether to open it/return it or sell it it was an impulse buy when I had to many beers the other evening :S lol
Thats true damn! I was all geared unto sell as I bought this for just £125.99 so might have a few quick, now looks like I may keep it now how do I break it to my other half
Any idea what they might be?
