  1. A few thoughts. 1. The improved 3D is a VERY important upgrade. I don't really know what games you play, but any action type title is near worthless with 3D on as you have to keep the damned system nearly frozen dead center. Street Fighter, Starfox, etc.... forget it, I always start "seeing double" as I play every once in a while as the 3D effect just goes barely out of perfect center. Another thought is showing your friends the screen for a few seconds. Ever notice when you turn the system around to show the system, the first thing they do is jump back startled because the image is screwed up as you're not turning the device towards them perfectly centered to their face? Happens to my wife and my father all the time. It would be nice to be able to show off what's on screen in perfect 3D, even if I'm not aligned up with them perfectly when I turn the system away from my face and towards theirs. 2. The C stick is very important. Not for the 3DS... for it's successor. But it's nice to see that they included it here as it's now all but confirmed it'll be on the successor. That and 4 triggers are here now. 4 triggers is something not even the Vita has. I'll agree with you that they don't look to be in the best of positions, but if they're more for seldom use than action use (think bumpers on a controller instead of triggers, which are used all the time) I don't see a problem with the slight reach. Heck they did it on the Classic Controller on the Wii. So I like they've got the leg up on that, and finally have a portable with perfect 1:1 controls as their home consoles. The stick looks like it'll function just fine. It's not for precision work like moving your character, but simply for quick adjustments for a camera. You might not play games that use dual sticks, but it doesn't mean dual sticks aren't important to game play of many genres, FPS, TPS, and 3rd person adventure games especially. Also, the Wii Motion Plus has come in handy quite a bit. Heck, you can't play TLOZ SS without it... 4. The DSi had a faster processor, too. It doesn't necessarily mean you'll see a huge upgrade, and this late in the game, just like with the DSi, I doubt you'll see many games taking advantage of it. Much of that power will go towards it's eye tracking system that improves it's 3D functionality, I'm sure. 5. I agree. Your XL is more than safe, as the 3DS in general is not dead. Unless you NEED "new 3DS" games, like the GB Color or DSi software before it, you'll be more than content with your older model. This is no more important than those other two minor updates.
  2. FYI, I have the retail copy. Works on a US system. It is NOT one of the games that needs to be played on a Japanese system!
  3. Guys and gals, I have a controller that needs to be modded to work on another system by the same company. I think it should be possible, but I can't do this as I don't have the knowledge and know how. I'm willing to pay well for the job (and have the two controllers ready to ship). Please PM me for more details. Not something I want to blast out to everyone on the forums until it's done... Thanks.
  4. This is THE game I'm excited about for the year when it comes to my Xbox. Both PS4 and Xbox One honestly have been disappointing thus far. This beta however floored me. I can't WAIT to play this game, and I'm happy to say I got a limited edition. Might have to call in "sick" that day...
  5. Long and short, if you're 30 years old or older, you all know this is a half way system like they've done many times before. If your 3DS still works, keep truckin' till the successor is announced. Which in this day and age of portable technology, might not be as long as you think.
  6. While this might seem stupid to gamers, you have to understand ... They've probably gotten most 3ds owners to buy more than one 3ds. Can't say that about most systems. They sell a bajillion handhelds. Ever wonder why? Personally, I won't buy one. They released the dsi xl a half year before unveiling the 3ds. I wouldn't be surprised if at most this system gets a couple dozen exclusives. I think its their way of getting the 'Wii' powered handheld out of the way so their next handheld can be an HD system. That way they can make their cash from Wii ports, cash in, and move on. I don't ever fall for these half way points Nintendo offers. I didn't buy a GB color. I didn't buy a dsi. Neither will I buy this. For 119 bucks I got a jxd s7800b. I can play all my Nintendo games on the go plus have an infinitely more powerful piece of kit till Nintendo's real next gen portable. I'll be content till then.
  7. Hey man, not trying to be mean or anything but I'd rather pass on shipping it to Brazil. Didn't realize before where you were from. Ice only ever shipped three things to Brazil. Two times they were lost (aka stolen). The third it was destroyed. I don't have the best of luck with Brazil's post...
  8. Just trust me. There's a reason why its rare. The steering just feels....right.
  9. Literally a small handful of games that can't be played on an American system. To be honest, other than Swords and Sorcery, nothing really comes to mind that's really quality. I'll most likely NEVER use the Japan only function of this Japanese 3DO of mine, but I got it almost by accident, so now I'm +1 system. That's really all it is. As a HUGE 3DO lover, I'd have been more than happy with my American 3DO for the foreseeable future. You'd be A'OK with the American one, for sure.
  10. Ok guys and gals, a few things that have to go. Rare Dreamcast Agetec steering wheel. This is the "first party" wheel for the DC, used on games like Sega Rally 2 to make them not control like complete poo . Seriously, both Sega Rally 2 and Daytona USA feel completely different (for the better) with the wheel. Great shape! $30 Dreamcasts! Ok, I have an import Dreamcast with the Rev 0 internals and hallow shell instead of a modem (just like a Rev 0). Plays Japanese games only. Comes with controller and VMU, no power cord, but I'll include a VGA adapter! Fantastic shape! $35 Lastly, a Rev 0 American system. Comes with power, av cord and controller. Again, Rev 0 systems are rare (think kiosk/developer units) that have metal fans, heat sinks and heat pipes inside, plus a more reliable drive. The thing should NEVER break. Fantastic shape! $50 3DO American FZ-10 system. No controller, all cords included. I'll have a picture up later, but the thing is in immaculate shape. If I didn't have a Japanese system, I'd keep it. $45 I have 120 clear full thickness DVD cases. These have the clear "sleeve" for cover art. No different than any DVD case other than that they're clear. Use them to replace game cases, or make "modern" case art for older disc based games you no longer have cases to. I can sell them all, or in batches of smaller quantities. $15 for all 120. Serious deal! PNY 32 GB SDHC full size card class 10- $15 Lexar 16GB SDHC full size card class 6 - $10 Black Hori N64 controller in MINT condition. No rough joystick feel, perfectly smooth. Not a single scratch. Seriously guys, looks brand new. Black was a very rare color for the Hori controllers, hence the price. $70 My entire N64 collection. I'm honestly not entirely sure how to sell this. However, if you want to purchase all of them, I'll cut you a huge break on the price. I'd personally prefer this. Play them, sell them and profit off me, I could care less. Buying them all together would be $325 shipped (basically a few bucks a cart). If it doens't sell as a lot, I'll be putting their worth price next to every cart. U= American , J=Japan Super Smash Brothers (J) Bomberman 64 (2D traditional Bomberman, not the mediocre 3D games. Only released in Japan and VERY rare) (J) Stunt Racer 64 (VERY rare Blockbuster only release, one of the last 64 games every made) (U) 1080 Snowboarding (J) Pocket Monsters (pokemon) Stadium (J) Lamborghini Automobili (U) MRC Racing (J) Banjo Kazooie (U) Konami Soccer 3 (J) Mischief Makers (U) World Cup 98 France (J) Pokemon Puzzle League (U) Cruisn Exotica (U) Rally Challenge 2000 (U) Animal Crossing 64 (J) Wave Race Rumble Pack Edition (J) Top Gear Rally (U) Excitebike 64 (U) Mario Kart 64 (J) Top Gear Rally 2 (U) Pilotwings 64 (U) Star Wars Rogue Squadron (U) Wave Race (U) Super Robot Spirits (the 3D Gundam/Mech fighting game!

  11. Thanks bud. Its been sold. Thanks for the quick sale!
  12. No, sorry. Just the console. Nothing more. Nothing less. Plus it would increase the shipping costs to include much more.
  13. $25 for the console only. Great condition, might be good as a spare or something to tinker on if you're set on modding it (would be easy to make this a portable...). No cords or controllers.
  14. I'm thinking of getting it. I began getting interested when I saw a Neo Geo Pocket Color emulator on Android. That would be the cherry ontop of a great sundae that is all the systems it offers to emulate. I'm not normally a portable fan, but I genuinely enjoy all in one devices IN ADDITION to my real hardware. Simply put, it's the reason why I like the Wii U. When my wife is watching TV, I cant play games. So this would fix that issue. Do you recommend it? How is the build quality? Have you tested the NGPC emulator? How does the DC run? I've seen a few games work well. Also, how are the triggers? I see there are 4, but they look like they might be uncomfortable. Oh, and are the joysticks like the Vita's? Good sensitivity? Thanks!
  15. Is there a neo geo pc emulator for that android device you guys own? The JDX?
  16. To be fair springning I'm used to portables like the nomad so that is small
  17. Looking for the plastic cased Gals Fighters game for the Neo Geo PC. PM me if you have one available, complete and in good condition. Thanks.
  18. Nevermind. I don't want such a buggy heap. Got an import Spice cube instead.
  19. This model is RGB modable to my knowledge, as it's the early model. Other than that, not really. It's just a spare N64 without the region tabs.
  20. Huh.. that's an interesting little handheld. I'll have to look into that. Currently playing a few things, per usual: 3DO - Need for Speed, Creative Shock & Star Control II Xbox One - Nothing until Destiny haha N64 - Banjo Kazooie Neo Geo PC - Big Tournament Golf, Fatal Fury 1st Contact and Pac-Man
  21. Don't get a Duo. Unless it's capacitors have been changed, as well as it's laser. They're...poorly made. Pony up and get the Duo-R or Duo-RW (same system, different controller. Or do what I did and get an R system and buy the RW controller separately). You'll thank me later, I promise.
  22. Well, this ends in utter frustration. They tested the unit after I bought it... drive was broken. He claims it was working before he listed it. Q I got a couple years ago, arrived broken... disc drive, once again. Got my refund, found a guy on Craigslist. Looked great in pictures...asked for a video. In the video he sent me it was dented in the back, so bad it looks like it was dropped on the floor, scratched... and drive didn't work. (╯°□°)╯︵ ┻━┻ F*** it. Bought a new spice gc with matching gba player. Screw it.
