Man you can tell this guy is obviously not a gamer and if he is he doesn't know crap about the industry or a gaming device of this magnitude.
He grew up on Halo? That alone tells you he's not a gamer, when someone says they grew up on something they are talking their childhood years to early teens. This guy did not look like a teenager. Halo came out in 2001, I was already 13 and I barely consider Halo to be what I grew up on. I say Mario or Sonic. This guy obviously wanted to target the non-Nintendo players in this review aiming instead at Microsoft fans or Sony fans.
Two of his biggest problem's the cartridge and the stylus. He talks about cartridges having not been used in ages, well guess what buddy the cartridge is alot like flash memory and flash memory (A form of cartridge) is still used today in many or most devices.
Stylus he's right not many devices use stylus these days. But anybody who plays games knows that the finger prints and damage to the screen done by your fingers is not good. Plus a stylus is far more accurate when playing video games. Your fingers are huge and require a larger screen to comfortably play. Sacraficing accuracy and screen quality doesn't make sense.
The battery life , absolutely its pretty bad that it has a 3-hour battery life but for the first 3D device and at an affordable price the battery life is understandable. So no arguments their.
The head aches and cross eyed effect, I wonder if he actually played the device and had those symptoms or just talked about them because he's heard some people have them? People here on VGChartz aren't complaining about head aches and cross eyed feelings. The device has been out in Japan for almost a month and Manuel and others have not complained about head aches or sick symptoms.
I find it funny that this guy thinks he's qualified to review a games console? I mean comparing a games console to a smart phone is just not logical the two devices may both play a form of game but the I-Phone is in no way a games device like Nintendo makes!
He was fairly negative I don't give his writing much credit!
