Forums - Nintendo - I'm not buying this 3D thing

I don't know Sean o.0? sorry if i sound like him. Ill go read some of his blogs so I sound more like me.... wait a min here Lol.

To Lord.  I dont see why you should be pissed off at them for doing exacly what they said they would from day  one.

You knew they would not support it.  So you bought a Wii to protest that?

 

To Rol. Looks like a Visual upgrade to me.

Actually, some did say this, and while I don't agree, those are not who I have the problem with.

It's those that went back on their word and support that I have the problem with, and/or those that lied to justify their lack of support.



A flashy-first game is awesome when it comes out. A great-first game is awesome forever.

Man, you are full of it. You are mad at the 3DS, because it's getting the third party support that the Wii could only dream of. Now you are trying to look for all sorts of excuses to justify that you are still playing the Wii with arguments like you have sex and therefore not the time for a 3DS. Get real, man. You can either be stubborn and keep playing your Wii games that came out years ago or you can purchase a shiny new 3DS that will introduce you to the magnificient world of 3D gaming.

Yeah.  I could pay for and play Ocarina of Time again and pretend that it wasn't supposedly 3D the first time.  Sorry I don't want to purchase this overpriced piece of equipment when I could make the down payment on a house instead.  I'll get all of the Shiny Golds in DKC Returns that you have given up on while you're flying around Wuhu Island.  I did that on Wii Sports Resort ages ago.   


I feel like you're purposefully missing the point. The 3DS can create environments in 3D, just like those good ole days. Notice that the word 3D is used a little bit differently now as actual depth is involved. It's hard to explain really because you have to see it to believe it. One day, go try out  a 3DS and you might understand what the "new" 3D is all about. I personally hate 3D in this manner, but it isn't annoying on the 3DS because it can be adjusted. However, I use it without the 3D most of the time. I turn it on and off during game to see what it looks like in 3D and back off to the normal screen. Both ways are really good and I'm glad that Ninty doesn't force you to keep the 3D mode on. Thankfully.


According to viper1 (from an older thread), some developers are working on games that require you to have the 3D on.

Well, let's hope that wont be the case... =_= Like I said, I usually flip the 3D on and off to see what things look like when they are on, and then turn it right back off. I might do this for those kind of "requiring" games. Let's see what happens.

Yeah I remember back in 06 or 07 that Kojima (Metal gear guy) said that he was interested in making a game on the wii because of it's control scheme. Where is that game? >.>

Well EA is the other big offender, and Epic for their BS about the Wii and other Nintendo systems. I would put Konami, but they don't seem to be doing that much even on the other systems. Same with THQ, which did complain about the sales of Deadly Creatures, but fessed up that they didn't give it any marketing. Plus their words about the 3DS indicate it's to make up for them screwing up on the Wii, not that they were holding out for a stronger system that Capcom seems to have done.

So it's mainly Capcom, EA, and Epic right now.

So i did go read Sean Maelstrom's blog since apparently we where students of his.

He dose have a explanation  of why 3rd party are total "assholes".

Its a Eliteism view point.  If you havent read it its long but intresting.



The 3D thing is indeed a marketing point which is why they are doing it.  I personally don't care for the 3D, I usually have the 3D slider down, but it doesn't make it a bad system.  The rest of the system is awesome.  I think they need some more heavy hitters in the software department, but it is awesome nonetheless.



@ Albion, I have read his blog, and know about that reason as well.

@ Shoelace, I don't have the problem with the 3D alone, but with how that and other features jacked up the price and dropped the battery life.
