Nintendo 3DS

So I picked up one of these. It's nice, but I'm not sure if it's $250 nice. The stuff that comes bundled is a lot of fun and it's pretty cool taking 3D pictures (the 3D is pretty impressive, no glasses needed).

Too bad there's not a bunch of good first-party Nintendo titles to start with, but they'll come along eventually. I've played Ridge Racer and Ghost Recon ... they're OK.

It's awaiting game for me on this. It's too expensive right now and until some of the big games come out not worth it... I sure am tempted though.

That's always been the weak spot for Nintendo. I love their games, but the lack of top tier titles is extremely frustrating. I hope they solve this problem with the Wii successor.

At Kapow there was a couple of kids taking advantage of the 3D photos. There was a rather well endowed woman dressed in an extremely revealing rendition of the Black Cat's costume that they were taking photos of.

Well played guys, well played.

That sounds interesting ... I've just taken stupid pics around my office and even those look cool.

Never knew about the 3D photos feature.

All I know is that RE5.5 game looks pretty sweet. :P

I've been fiddling around more with the bundled in features, those are fun but I'm starting to get tired of them. I still haven't passed anyone else with a DS according to Street Pass, but I haven't been around many places where I was likely to.
