Oh Fuck My Site just Crashed

quoth the server, 404

 

[Bizzyb]

Yeah they could have done a better job with the color of the slide pad...ugh

 

[Chet Rippo]

I don't see the ugly, where is the ugly? Telescopic stylus is a neat idea.

 

[Sadist]

Stylus is HUGE

 

[ConradCervantes]

Is Iwata saying anything yet, or did IGN forget they were doing a liveblog? Their page is still the same as it was prior to midnight here.

 

[trejo]

I'm gonna wait for the Lite version anyway.

 

[Brinbe]

Someone in that 3DS blog wrote "umbiliveble"

I am aghast.

this guys, I swear.

 

[Oli]

yeah, hoping the other colors (assuming they exist?) are more aesthetically pleasing...

The black one in the images looks fine. I hope they bring out a white one too. I love white handhelds for some reason ever since I bought a white GBA original.

 

[NewFresh]

Iwata must just be strutting around in his suit not talking

 

[Jade Knight 08]

3DS looks great to me. Now give me Zelda: OOT now!

 

[upandaway]

Lol at all the people guessing $250, no fucking way it's gonna be over $199.

I bet $149-179 with $199 as the absolute upper limit.

Yeah $200 seems plenty. I'm saying 200.

 

[Jackano]

The design is Ok for me. I wasn't expecting something too different.

PS: 7AM here in France, just wake up for the event. Welcome GAF!

 

[Gomu Gomu]

What the hell is up with IGN?

They aren't live blogging! :cries

[sevenchaos]

I predict $199. Has to be under 200 to really explode in the US.

$230 with pack-in game. Imaginary value is a staple of Nintendo.

 

[NomarTyme]

Cmon nintendo, I got work in morning.

Not my problem....

 

[Busaiku]

Lack of updates is killing me.

 

[idofriar1313]

Thank God for a thicker stylus, and that analog stick definitely looks white now. Probably an design choice.

 

[Rezbit]

All black version please!

 

[Jermzic]

The stylus looks nice.

 

[ILikeFeet]

i like the concave DPad

 

[Shadowlink]

14:12 -- Now on to Super Mario Collection!

 

[Father_Brain]

showing Paper Mario 3DS now, according to Famitsu (or not)

 

[cooljeanius]

3DSblog is dead (at least their main website... their liveblog is still working, thankfully)

 

[AranhaHunter]

IGN liveblog doesn't work and adriasang is getting hammered

 

[jj984jj]

This conference is boring. Didn't he take DSi out right away last time?

 

[friskykillface]

I thought that inside two-tone color wasn't going to be final. I don't like it.

someone pointed out that the 3D screen needs a black background so it can work, i didnt know that either

 

[ace harding: private eye]

Iwata must just be strutting around in his suit not talking

That would be a bad-ass conference.

I don't think IGN is actually "liveblogging," they just might update the page in chunks once info comes out.

 

[red shoe paul]

All black version please!

There is an all black version already pictured..

 

[Jocchan]

From andriasang:

14:12 -- Now on to Super Mario Collection!

14:11 -- Iwata says that the reason Black & White sold so well was because it reached these audiences.

14:11 -- "The people playing the new Pokemon game aren't just kids, but high school students and people in their 20s."

14:09 -- Of course, this was already revealed last week.

14:09 -- They reached 2.55 million sales in their first week -- a new record for the Japanese game industry.

14:09 -- Iwata is discussing sales of Pokemon Black & White.

14:07 -- He's wearing his usual suit and vest combo.

14:07 -- Iwata takes the stage.

14:07 -- Final 3DS design, according to Mark from 1up: http://yfrog.com/0p9esqj

14:06 -- The conference has started.

 

[lordoftherink]

I think it looks great, but then again, I've only ever owned an original DS.

It's not like anything has been announced yet though.

The CoverItLive isn't updating either. Are they not doing anything?!

 

[Kilgore Trout]

I thought that inside two-tone color wasn't going to be final. I don't like it.

Apparently around the top screen it needs to be black for the 3d effect to work. So if you don't want two colors there will only be black.

 

[Vic]

What with these non-3DS news??

 

[ColtraineGF]

Last Story.

January 27th.

Guess I'll check it out.

 

[cosmicblizzard]

Last Story Jan 27.

 

[Medalion]

New mARIO AND DONKEY KONG?

 

[Branduil]

:lol @ all the design haters. Fuck me guys, it's not as hideous as the DS Phat. That blue color is pretty disgusting though.

Of course it doesn't look as bad as the phat, but it's also not nearly as sleek as the DSi.

 

[BocoDragon]

I could give an F about higher aesthetic sensibilities at this point... the last few years have been an endless onslaught of new, sexy devices from Nintendo, Sony, Apple, etc, and the buzz is starting to wear off for me.

 

[jambo]

Iwata is now introducing some new Mario, Donkey Kong etc games. Last Story will launch Jan 27. Yet to talk 3DS.

 

[trejo]

What's happening? Is he just standing there?

Oh, games. OK.

 

[duckroll]

martyn_williams: Iwata is now introducing some new Mario, Donkey Kong etc games. Last Story will launch Jan 27. Yet to talk #3DS [via Twitter]

 

[shwimpy]

JUST RELEASE THE PRICE/DATE ALREADY SO I CAN MOVE ON WITH MY LIFE.

 

[Freezie KO]

I like the telescoping stylus.

Super Mario Collection? Don't they realize this Japanese conference is for Gaffers that don't live in Japan?

 

[JustAnotherOtaku]

Last Story Jan 27th!

 

[Ridli]

Curse these moon language tweets!

 

[Sadist]

No 3DS talk yet

 

[Shard]

Oh goodie, charts and graphs time.

 

[Ashodin]

Gotta get the filler out of the way before the meat people. How Nintendo operates sometimes.
