Well, after the recent news, the 3DS fell from a 10/10 system to a turn a 9/10 system.

What does that tell us? Sure, an universal achievement system would be great, a longer battery life would be better, but that's what the 3DSi is for, right? the 3DS is still a great handheld, and it will be the first Nintendo handheld I defintely get on launch.

and btw: Region-locked games is nothing new. In fact, most systems are region-locked. the fact that the PS3 was region-free was the exception, not the other way around.

AFAIK every Nintendo Handheld was regionfree. Only Exception is the DSi. Some games (like Pokemon Black/White) are region locked on the DSi.

On Topic: Nice work Rol.

That is correct, but as handhelds get more and more complicated/advanced, it's bound to happen. They're becoming full-fledged consoles.

But the PS3 is the most complicated/advanced console available. And it's regionfree.

I would say complexity and regionfree are not corelated. There might be reasons to make the 3DS regionlocked. But I doubt it's because it is too complex/advanced.

Well, this round goes to you.
