Around the Network

good list.



3DS is getting better support than DS. :P



Interesting list. Though it might be easier to look at if you put the DS and 3DS in different fonts/colors.



I never realized how much support was pledged for DS in 2004 and most of it wasn't seen till 2005. I hope that Nintendo and the other developers will be releasing these products this fall through next spring in other words fiscal 2010. I also noted many games on the DS got cancelled after they were announced I really hope that the third parties don't pull back any punches I wanna see all those games hit the beautiful 3DS!
