Even though people are making fun of the 3DS, the holiday line up is crazy good in Japan

While I think the new add on was incredibly short sighted and in general fucking stupid on Nintendo's behalf, you have IMO hit the nail on the head. Software is in the end the most important factor in a system's success, and in that respect I very very happy with the 3DS for the next 6-12 months.

For the rest of the year alone, out of the games with European release dates announced I will get MK7, SM3DLand and Tales of the Abyss 3D, all on day 1.
