When watching, I can predict his pained non-metaphors before they happen, and when he's about to insert a sight gag. Also, whenever he reviews a game made by Nintendo or on a Nintendo platform, he spends less time reviewing the game and more hating on Nintendo themselves and everybody who has ever enjoyed their games even once in their lives. He bitches about people wanting sequels, but has been one of the lead people demanding HL2E3. He's also reviewed games without finishing the tutorials before (Valkyria Chronicles, Monster Hunter Tri).


I presume he hates Nintendo because of their absolutely disgusting treatment of the region over the years. Australia consistently get Nintendo games extremely late if ever at all. I can understand why he'd be pissed.

I found the 3D effect to be very cool, and it caused my eyes no discomfort after playing for about 8-10 minutes. I still wouldn't even consider spending $250 on it, but I think it's a pretty cool device. I'll probably get one whenever the price range is in the ~150 area and there are plenty of good games.


Same thing going on at my Gamestop, played it yesterday, I, however, was stunned with how terrific it looked. The 3D felt as natural as 2D gaming, if not more natural, and yet still was simply amazing to play with. The game was pretty fun too. Before, I was debating getting it, now I WILL have one at some point, sooner the better, hopefully after a price downgrade near the holidays though. I want to go back to my rather far away gamestop just to play that demo some more.

The store is OK, but it doesn't seem very organised. It's sorted via recent update by default, and you actually have to SEARCH to see the full list of DSiWare games. When you do get the full DSiWare list, it wont let you sort it alphabetically. It's better than before, but still needs work.

Excitebike is excitebike. The voxel look is kinda nice, and the 3d depth is pretty if pointless.

No netflix. I'm in UK, so i dont get it anyway, but pretty sure its not on the US store either.

Awesome! I really want a 3DS now. I was waiting to see what Sony was doing with their new handheld but I think that the 3DS is better for me.

So "ExciteBike" is a system seller for you? I mean, it's probably a $4 or $5 virtual console game, no?

Ive been wanting one, and i was stuck in bewteen getting a 3DS or the new PSP. After seeing the PSVita, I think that the 3DS is a better handheld. Games like Luigis mansion, Mariokart, Kid icarus, Starfox, Ocarina of time, Street fighter and a few others is a "system seller" for me.
