My life is like a battleground. By this, I mean there is always an ongoing war between owners of various consoles, and facts can suddenly seem confusing when everyone is questioning them. I've got a friendship-group that I'm trying to convince that the 3DS is awesome. The only problem is that I'm outnumbered around 3:1, and I have nothing to back up my points with. You know how hard it is to convince someone who doesn't want to listen, right? That's why I need your help. Below are a list of genuine quotations that I've had to defend myself against in the last week or so - relating both to the games and the sales potential of the 3DS. I've managed to hold my ground so far, but it's getting more difficult by the minute. How can I respond to these statements?

"PSP looks much better [graphically] than 3DS"

Empiracally false.

"3DS is for casuals; like the DS"

Lineup. Check it.

"Pilotwings is a minigame"

Options give game depth

"The 3DS line-up is almost completely made up of remakes"

Wait a year, could be a valid argument then if conditions haven't changed

"Steel Diver is a tech demo, and a bad one at that"

A: Opinions are like assholes, B: so-called "Tech Demos" drove Wii success over whatever console you happen to favor, so shove it.

"3D is a gimmick, and will fail like 3DTV"

Just like motion controls were a gimmick?

 

That's all I've got so far, but if I get hit by more, I'll report them here. Thanks for the assistance, comrades.

boom, roasted.
