Yeah, but Xenoblade is awesome in its own rights!

Nintendo DSi and DSi XL getting a price cut!

Two of Nintendo’s top-selling video game systems are getting attractive new prices. Effective May 20, the suggested retail price for the larger Nintendo DSi XL will be $129.99 and the suggested retail price for Nintendo DSi will be $99.99.

Both the Nintendo DSi and Nintendo DSi XL systems come pre-loaded with a variety of fun software, including Flipnote Studio, Nintendo DSi Camera and Nintendo DSi Sound. Nintendo DSi XL comes with additional pre-installed games and applications, including Brain Age Express: Arts & Letters, Brain Age Express: Math and Photo Clock.

The Nintendo DS family has more than 2,000 different packaged and downloadable games for veteran and new players of all tastes. These include timeless Mario games like New Super Mario Bros. and Mario vs. Donkey Kong: Minis March Again!, puzzling adventures like Professor Layton and the Last Specter and Dr. Mario Express, fun software like Photo Dojo and Shantae: Risky’s Revenge, the gray matter-stimulating Brain Age: Train Your Brain in Minutes a Day! and Brain Age 2: More Training in Minutes a Day! and upcoming games like Pokémon Conquest, which is available June 18.

The new suggested retail prices provide an even greater incentive to pick up the systems, and provide an easy option for parents who want to introduce younger kids to their first portable games.

With graduations looming, Father’s Day approaching and the start of the summer travel season imminent, the new suggested retail prices appeal to all kinds of shoppers.

So this means that there are two Wii U games announced today? This Cloudberry Kingdom thing looks interesting, and I'll keep an eye on that Avengers game too.

Shame Earth Seeker wasn't published by Nintendo. Then at least NoE would be translating it. At this point, there's virtually no chance it'll ever see release out of Japan. Would love to play it. Looks so imaginative.

Here's hoping the price drop combined with Pokemon gives the DS that one last boost!

Yeah, go 3DS!

I've played about a half hour of it (don't ask).  Wish I could understand it.  Google translate?  Dude, it's a JRPG.  You'll be sick of typing in stuff to translate within minutes.   

I guess you could skip dialogue and just do inventory/fight screens... Just enough to play. How would that work though?  How do you even imput Japanese characters into Google translate?

I now automatically hate them.

Damn, 3DS is gonna kill in Japan. Apparently Nintendo wanted to end in that region as quick as posible. Now, to conquest the western markets
