Looks like 3D is evolving into a mature game mechanic.

What stops you from owning both PS4 and 3DS? You can always get PS4 at a later date, when its gotten a better library =)

I figured he just loves everything 2D....

I think I've seen that reaction as well from him... And I gotta agree with him somewhat; Zelda has become very puzzle centric, while it used to be about action and adventure. But I think you have a point; it would seem as if the puzzles are contained to the dungeons and the over world has the enemies... (I'm thinking about the birds and the... blobs...)

A combination of irational fanboyism and the fact that I convinced all my friends to get one week one and the fact that I am flying to Japan in August/September

Dude! You really need to have that bolded part checked... I've heard that's really unhealthy!

If every product I sold for Sony would have gotten me an Euro... I would have like 50...
Also, Fanboyism is only unhealthy if you are not aware of it... let's see, I know that I am a fanboy of Sony, I know that I am a DotA 2 fanboy, I am a Zelda fanboy... ... ... welp, that is it...

Anyway, in regards to buying a 3DS > it mostly depends on how well the Vita fares up in my hands. Because I do not tend to play Handheld games while being on the move, they often get forgotten after some time, because it is so much more convinient to play a console at home on a big screen, rather than a handheld with a microscopic screen. (And this ridiculous statement is coming from a person that only uses two 23" screens(and a shitty Samsung 21" Screen, that I normally not use, because it is eyecancerous in regards to colours)).

On the other hand, Zelda is the only system seller for me, so if it fares up well enough, I will be happy to play it (and buy a 3DS) :D

Anyway, i think we are far too off-topic here, since we actually should be talking about Rol's reaction, but well, since I am Austrian, I might count myself in his place.

/me is off to ride his Kangaroo into the Alps

Well, Rol hasn't showed up here to express his thoughts on the matter, so a little derailing doesn't hurt ;)

How is it like being a fanboy? I'm mostly just a fan myself, or could it be that I'm deluding myself? Maybe I AM a fan boy?! How would I know???! Rol most definetly is a fan boy though! .... Maybe... I think... Is he? I don't know... =/

Ah, it is mostly like being a fan, only that you are allowed to hate on the competition and even more on your fanboyism-target. Don't know if rol is a fanboy or just Austrian, these two things are hard to distinguish sometimes... (I mean, Austrian tend to hate on everything and it's mom)

Yeaaaah... Rol DOES seem to be pretty hateful... Hating on the puzzles in Zelda, most of the Mario games, and he makes a lot of "XXX flopped, we need to talk about this"-threads that's just filled with a deep hatred for the game in question...

Man, being a fanboys sounds awesome :D but does that mean you have to love everything your company does?
