Settle down now children, anyway Epic Mickey 2: Power of Illusions is coming to the 3DS as well as a rumour that Unchain Blades Rexx will be coming as well. Anyone interested in these? I never played the first Epic Mickey and most likely won't play this one.

Screw Epic Mickey. Gimme my JRPG.

It might just be me but has anyone else got a slightly loose hinge on there 3ds on the left hand side and that the top screen moves if you tilt the console towards youself?

I have this too. I just be VERY careful with my 3DS. It must have been because my mum who brought it home maybe dropped it once before I got it, but idk.

[Tyranitarquake]

Mine seems fine. I do look after it properly though. I've only dropped it once, by accident.

[richm88]

I have looked after it carefully and ive never banged it or dropped it,there was issues back with the ds lite hinges and maybe there is one with the 3ds ,how big or small the issue will be will become apperant as the consoles get older I would imagine, I just hope it doesnt become looser

It's not just you. Mine also has a really lose hinge. Both my niece's 3DS are fine. But I can literally feel the screen move if I cough or something. I plan to send it into Nintendo at some point because it's only a few months old but it's been like that since I opened it.

[Tyranitarquake]

I hope the broken hinge problem doesn't come up with the 3DS.

[ForeverFlame]

I'm meh over Epic Mickey. The original concept art made it look like Mickey Mouse meets Resident Evil, but it ended up being a typical Mickey game. I'm sure the sequel/whatever the 3DS version is will have good sales, but I'm not interested.

[richm88]

Mines not really loose I can just feel a bit of play in it.I wonder how long Nintendo take to fix it when you send it off,I dont want to be playin pokemon on my original ds for long, aslong as it dont get worse I can cope with it but I got a habit of keep checking how loose it is and will probly end up making it worse.
I noticed the plastic around the touch screen touches the top screen when its closed to as I can see marks of grease from it on the black, the circle pad also does it too and leaves a circle ring of grease from off it lol, dont know wether anyone else gets that too.
I did hear when the 3ds first came out that they recalled a load because of the rubber pads that stop the top screen touching the bottom screen were not thick enough and the plastic around the touch screen was scratching the top screen

Clean your 3Ds, I use the microfiber that came with the original DS Phat

Yeah, just do this and clean your 3DS regularly. With my micro fiber cloth, I cut it a little bit and now it fits in my 3DS even when I close it, so I don't have scratches, or at least they aren't that noticeable.

People cared about the first one?


Anyway, does anyone else's 3DS 'squeak' when you grip it. It's like I can kinda bend it, the body itself, no the top screen and it keep squeaking.

I love my 3DS, but I really wish that the screens were the same size and formatted to DS gameplay. It's nice and all, but the original DS will always be my friend, XD

Well, you can press start+select while a ds (or any other older games like virtual console ones) loads, and the resolution will be that of the original. You will just get emptiness surrounding the image, which bothers me more than the actual resolution difference ever would, but its an option nonetheless.

RUMOR: 3DS' next update will be so badass

If it does turn out to be true , I hope that they would get more fighting games like Street Fighter X Tekken out on the system sometime soon since that it would make me really love the 3DS more than the Vita. Though only good fighting games with DLC , a Facebook & Twitter apps , and a slight better internet browser are the only good things for me on the Vita right now. But hey , All of this info is just a magical super rumor until the bawss , Iwata or Reggie , himself confirms info for what they are doing with the next 3DS update.

Other than that , Seems like that it has also been leaked that Wario Land: Super Mario Land 3 is coming to the North American eShop's Virtual console soon. That is being since the recent Nintendo Power issue said that too in the content page as that Unchained Blade and that Epic Mickey 2 game for the 3DS also. Though I do hope that Kid Icarus: Of Myths and Monsters would come to the Virtual Console service soon in North America since that I want to complete my collection of having all the Kid Icarus games on my 3DS.

No just no.

I don't want Capcom release a game, where half the game is paid DLC on the 3DS.

[AuraChannelerChris]

You and me both. A Capcom fighting game is just screaming for paid DLC.

Then after you buy all the DLC, IN COMES THE ALPHA VERSION.

[Manene!]

I really wish Nintendo would do some apps for the 3DS. I know they're against the type of thing but it's what people want. I'm not asking for a fart button app or anything but Twitter, Facebook, Tumblr. It'd be nice. Because I do sometimes use my 3DS for that, if I have too.

As for the updates, I really hope some of it is true. The faster speed, for example. It's not too slow but it could be faster. I'd also love a fix for the "L" and "R" buttons while in the hope menu. I hate that the camera pops up whenever I click one of them on accident, which happens often. It'd much prefer to be able to move left and right.

I'm curious about what exactly "Game Preview" mode is. Like how exactly it will work. I also am excited for Nintendo Network and and PRAYING that it involves an accounts. And I hope that connects to the eShop.

[Hydrohs]

I doubt that any speed improvements they make would really be all that noticeable.
