Great job here Brian, congrats!! keep it up!!! :)

I like that eshop Karting game, looks pretty good

hey! those release dates for 3DS games ar for Japan right?
i cant wait for Luigis, Paper Mario and Castelvania!!!!!!!!

I'm still getting surprised on how suprisingly deep and complex KI:U is.

i like the conduit for Wii because of the Wiimote aiming, thats why im not very interested on a 3DS iteration

also is that a DQX WiiU version pic?

really???
everytime i play a shooter with analogs i feel like its a step back in terms of gameplay experience

Me too. And to add to the problem, I can't play them with dual analogs, it's weird and imprecise, imo.

Still puzzles me how dual analog controls won the war against mouse for shooters. I swear that if I was allowed to play COD in Xbox live with a mouse I would be world champion - it's just that better!

Check out more screen comparisons here Hey vgcharterz! Lets make this next one happen!!! Operation Pika: The Movement to Get the Pikachu 3DS Localized 07. September 2012 by Dylan James Remember that snazzy Pikachu-themed 3DS XL announced for Japan last month?  The incredibly adorable one that put smiles on faces around the world?  The one that was announced only for Japan to the dismay of people who apparently have excess money to spend in the West? Well now there’s an operation to rally Nintendo into an international release.  Here’s the official description from the movement’s Facebook page:   “Nintendo is Bringing out a Pikachu 3DS XL in Japan and we Pokemon fans want it in Europe and America and Australia so this is for to get Nintendo Europe and Nintendo America and Nintendo Australia to bring it out.” Okay, so that’s not exactly proper English, but you get the point.  Speaking of Facebook, here are the links to Operation Pika’s social media outlets (Facebook, Twitter).  Both pages are well presented and have links to show support through liking or sharing or hash-tagging (whatever that Twitter madness is called) or what have you. So what are you waiting for?  Go show your support!  Unless you’re not inclined to do so.  But who are you kidding?  Of course you are. 6 Comments

I like how the cameras are pikachu's nips...

agree
although i must admit i have a love hate relationship with the mouse and keyboard setting

for me its Wiimote/Move etc.. > touch screen (ala DS) > M&K >>>> Dual analogs

E.X. Troopers looks good, even on 3DS. Can't wait to get my hands on this game.

Were you standing or sitting?   Arm out fully or resting on leg?  

I've come to learn that most people that hated Wii remote controls stood up when playing or pointed their entire arm at the screen.   Try resting your arm and point with just your wrist movements....the experience becomes far more enjoyable while mainataining superior pointing accuracy.

Try playing a FPS, like CoD, while sitting with your arm on your leg, a pillow or the edge of the couch or chair. 

I've found after a few hours of really getting used to the controls that it is by far superior to dual analogs.     This really holds up when playing a game that allows you to use the Wii remote or the Classic Controller Pro.  

My test is best noted when trying to play Link's Crossbow Training.   No way in any level of Dante's 9 circles of hell can you achieve the same level of points with diual analog that can be achieved with the Wii Remote.

I am reminded of the first time I tried analog control on the N64.   I found it a pain in the ass just trying to cross the damn bridge on the Bomb Om Battlefiled at first.   But once my thumb muscles had grown accustomed to using the analog stick, how could you go back to digital (with a few exceptions...like fighting games)?
