I did notice that some DS Lites had a different screen. My first Lite has a very clear touch screen, but something was wrong with it so I exchanged it. The new Lite had an obviously different touch screen, as I could see the touch layer as a very minor moire effect. I actually returned it in hopes of getting a screen like the first one, but no luck. I recall reading at the time that Nintendo updated the screen material to be more durable.

Even if only in digital format. Preferably in the same fashion the magazine had back in the 90s.
Maybe now Nintendo will acknowledge Metroid has a fanbase?

NP still had nearly 500k subs when it said it was ended.

"Nintendo Power enjoys a total monthly readership of 475,000, according to Future press materials."

I know there is a new unofficial magazine called Nintendo Force, but its more expensive and the fact its unofficial, doesnt give to as direct of information if Nintendo had ran it.

I don't know what the American version was like, but the UK's Official Nintendo Magazine sucks.

Just got the limited editions of Etrian Odyssey Untold & SMT Soul Hackers. Pretty excited. Will also be picking up LE of EOIV & Code of Princess.

Hoping Santa brings me New Super Mario 2, Batman Arkham Origins Black gate, & Zelda Link Between Worlds :) starting 2014 with a 3DS backlog!

Since my last post today found a great price on a new Etrian Odyssey IV limited edition (cheaper than the regular edition BINs listed).

Expand on the MiiVerse. Is that what the WiiU has?

Its escaping me, what was the 3DS app before when you went on adventures, spent coins, etc - MiiPlaza?

I am hoping they will bond our downloaded games with our Nintendo IDs in the near future. If they can give me that I will buy more downloadable games from them.
