I hope for golden sun 4.
I mean did you see that end? It completely beat the first on the cliffhanger side but without the next episode even being announced. That's hard.

I want Animal Crossing to be a good sequel, to be released before the end of the year , and to be available on the eshop with a discount of some sort. That would just about do it for me.

Majora's Mask in superior glasses-less 3D, please.

C'mon, should be so simple having the same team as OoT3D recycle their new assets from that game much like how the originals recycled assets.

How do people expect there to be a redesigned 3ds with better battery life AND a second analog? Especially when the circle pad requires its own battery.

Two copies sold? That's not a bomb guys, stop trolling!!!
Many of you said lots of things I'd like to see at E3.
But you know what I want to see more?
The Western support Iwata talked about, the one which is "catching up" with Japan. I'm just too curious. Maybe, there will be an anticipation this week with the new Nintendo Power issue preview...

The problem is Western Support is not as serious as Japanese support. I mean devs supports, and not games.
Japanese devs take handheld more seriously than Western devs.

I know, and that's why Iwata's statement made me very curious for this E3, since according to his words, we'll see nice things from Western developers in the next future.

Yeah, but it depends. Iwata talked about quantity or quality ?
I mean, you can have a lot of western games... but are they good games ?

Since he said "Western support catching up with Japanese one", I think he meant in both directions, but especially in the latter one.

And by western support, he meant western games or western 3DS having more games (from Japanese and Western devs) ?
I hope E3 will be good for 3DS.

DreamRift is making a Mickey game and WayForward is making an Adventure Time game. Both being 2d games. I don't know what more you could ask for.

You've got a point !:p
Even if I have some doubt about Adventure Time, I'm not sure will have it in Europe...:(
But we need more games.

I'd prefer Ruby/Sapphire remakes, as R/B were remade on the GBA. This November is the tenth year anniversary release for Japan. So maybe Ninty will do the same that they did with G/S.
Who really cares about Gen 3? Remaking Kanto again in full 3D strikes me as something that would get bigger fan reaction.

There will not be a redesign. Did I miss something, what is wrong with the current 3DS? It's better than any of the cheap feeling DS models to me.
Really? The DSi XL looks and feels much more premium than the 3DS to me. I would love a 3DS XL of similar quality.

The 3DS, as it is, suffers from small, dim screens, very poor battery life, hinge issues, screen scratching, and a glossy finish which becomes messy very quickly.

That said, compared to the first iterations of the GBA and the DS, it's not too bad. It could definitely use a lot of work, though.

The glossy stuff is annoying, but I believe in Japan matte-coated devices are not seen as "premium" as glossy ones. But they'll definitely release matte revisions down the road, no doubt.

Also, it was necessary to make the 3DS look different from the DSi and XL. It already looks like another DS as is and it would be much worse if it were matte and didn't have the three-layered shell. I have a hard time imaging a revision that doesn't look like an existing DS model, unless they go for a more rounded/curved shell.
 
A Majora's Mask remake and a two-nub revision would make me buy a 3DS instantly. The latter may never happen, I fear.
I'm in the camp that doesn't really think a 2 nub revision is really all that necessary. Yes, there will be some games that might play better with 2 sticks (metal gear 3), but the vast majority of games will be made to work with 1 stick and the touch screen. It would definitely be nice to have of course, but i dont think that NOT having it should be a deal breaker for anyone.

As far as what id like to see, just more games!
 
- FF V remake with high SE internal team production values no more Matrix Software please.

- Next 3DS RE game: Claire and Jill as protagonists!

- Platinum game goodness: Viewtiful Joe spiritual succesor.

- Type 0 3DS enhanced port.

- More S-E goodness

- Original 3DS Zelda. But this time a good zelda game, I don't want the DS crap like games.

- A Galaxy Mario game, 3DS can do it.

- Lots of RPG.


3DS shop related annuncements.


- Nintendo stops being crappy and says they will do better efforts to fill the 3DS store with quality titles.

- Weekly deals.

- Lots of games from quality indie developers.




Yeah, I expect that none of this will happen....
