Message from Sakurai about SSB - click view image to read it


Namco develops SSB? Is Project Sora then codeveloping it, or are they doing a different project?

oh lol...well too bad then. Won't really have the extra money for a 3ds this year. Already have way too many things to buy. Maybe they will sell it as DLC pack or something in the future. I wonder if they will have the dlc in the store for the whole year or just post and take it down once a day. I hope it's the former


I don't know how it is for Layton, but the extra-quests for Heroes of Ruin are a spot-pass-function - that means you get the quest of the day if you are in reach of a WLAN. It never shows up in the E-Shop in any way.

As great as this looks, fuck Nintendo for bringing it out so soon, and fuck them even more for stopping production of Aqua Blue 3DS's... I'd have bought an XL if they made an Aqua Blue one. Actually, no I wouldn't, because I'd have to wait for them to make a bigger circle pad pro too because this doesn't have a second analogue! ... again, fuck you Nintendo!


Aqua Blue is out of production just in Japan, in the rest of the world, we still can have a AquaBlue 3DS.so you can buy a normal Aqua blue 3DS  and a normal Circle pad pro. Ain't everything that bad

i want it!
how much do you think it will be in the UK?

I'd imagine £169, judging from prices elsewhere. 

Also, we're getting it before the Americans, 29th July :D

woah.. for that price i may bite... oh god! so many games this year!

Am I the only one who thinks that it's FRICKING HUGE!

And anyone seriously expecting a second nub is out of their mind. No game will ever require the second nub, so why make the system have it?


Kid Icarus needed one. Monster Hunter 4 needs one. Pretty much any serious game with a free form camera, IE not rails games.

And yes the size flies in the face of anyone who complained about the size of the vita, which _does_ fit in pockets. This one will too unless you are shorter than 5 feet tall.

Kid Icarus used the CPP for left-handed-option. Does not add anything. RE:R and MH3G use it - optional.

You're thinking I meant needed one as in would not work without one. What im really saying is that I tried KI and could not continue after more than 2 hours into the game because it was just so clunky and horrid. MH4 would be the same. After playing MHFU on my vita I refuse to ever go back to playing with the claw.

As far as I know, KI only puts the movement from the left nub to the right with CPP, so that you can use the stylus with the left hand.

How much it is needed for MH4 is speculation at this point.

Yeah, this was THE chance for Nintendo to include the 2nd analog stick. Bigger 3DS=more space for the stick! I guess they wanna earn some money in Japan by selling the 2nd analog stick to Monsta Hunta players.


That may be a reason, Nintendo sold a big amount of additional hardware for the Wii. Maybe they want to do that for 3DS too. But I also think, they wanted to make the XL an ooption to the small 3DS, not a revision. So if they had added the second nub to the XL, they should have done also a revision for the smaller 3DS.

Wow, Nintendo just will not stop kicking the early adopters.


oh well, that's tech for you.  noone complains when new ipods and iphones roll out every year.  It should be expected by now.  I bought a 3DS at launch and knew what I was getting so it is what it is.
