Is NoA okay, doesn't anyone know, have any data? They seem to REALLY be conservative with EVERYTHING now. Pretty soon it will be required to preorder almost ANYTHING that comes from them. It's also strange when there is clearly a problem they don't directly address their customers and treat us like children. I hate when I feel like I have no voice when I give them my money, if I don't give it to them they draw the wrong conclusion. It's a lose, lose.
It is pretty much proven that Nintendo wanted the 2DS to phase out the 3DS in NA.
After it got introduced, they stopped supplying 3DS SKUs to store.
I was hoping considering the 2DS sales have been bad that they would just go worldwide with 2 types of models and phase out 2DS in NA.
But nope!
I will take that over no localization honestly.They will call it the New 3DS Lite, and it will only ever get two sets of faceplates (plain black and plain blue) because NoA is just the worst.
Are we expecting Gamestop to ship them out in time to get it on Friday?
Can't wait to try out the New 3DS MH4 LE I ordered!
Guessing the odds gamestop will have some extra MH4 bundles in stock Friday are slim to none huh...
Yep, short stock confirmed it seems. Good luck to people who didn't pre-order!Arghh I figured Gamestop would have enough and I wasn't sure I wanted one so I didn't preorder. They got exactly as many as they had preordered.
Told me to check tomorrow in case they get more.
I think the standard shipping does come with tracking.
Also new LL dock is only in black for some reason. Regular stand comes in white, blue, and pink. No black regular stand.
If it helps, I really like my white standard dock.
Europe seems to be getting 2 of the docks according to GAME. So yeah US is probably not getting a single dock. Maybe Hori maybe will make one unless Nintendo has a patent on the design.Oh that's good because I would worry if its shipping out or not..glad that its region free so it will work for me..I have seen other colors on their site but its only for the New 3DS NOT the XL..if they sold it here in the US I would buy it but its not available here sucks
I get the feeling that BB I being open is a ruse. Like the Smash bundle debacleWhy is this thing such a bitch to order online in the US? Is it just Bestbuy with available preorders? Gross.
I really don't like the direction Nintendo is going with distribution, might forget this system altogether.

At worst. They put that there so they do not over promise. It's standard shipping from what I understand of it.
I don't understand NoA either. Welcome to our club!I don't get what NoA are doing anymore. I just want to play Pokemon X/Y or Omega Ruby/Alpha Sapphire.
Is there any actual proof of someone getting a 3DS early?
I don't understand NoA either. Welcome to our club!
Also most proof is mostly Europeans enjoying the early shipment. I don't think we seen a US proof of early shipment.
Really? New? Where?I still see DSi's on shelves.
Same here. My main reason for buying a N3DS is to play Pokemon.I don't get what NoA are doing anymore. I just want to play Pokemon X/Y or Omega Ruby/Alpha Sapphire.
If we were in rational land, you could walk in a store and buy a regular n3DS with no issue and pick up a cover plate because you like Pokémon:Same here. My main reason for buying a N3DS is to play Pokemon.
Yeah I decided to just wait. The only reason to really buy this thing is the 3D crap until there is actually compelling n3DS software. The only game I play now anyway is Pokemon and I would never play it with 3D on due to its atrocious framerates.I would probably avoid Best Buy at this point. They didn't seem to mind charging me but I haven't seen any updates besides "1 item(s) - Status Not Available."

Given how Pokemon has shit for 3D support and doesn't use the c-stick at all why not just buy anSame here. My main reason for buying a N3DS is to play Pokemon.
Had my red paid off since Jan 30th. I'm just so antsy, it's hard to think about anything but that.
It's not like Pokemon is the only 3DS game I want to play. I already have Professor Layton X Phoenix Wright and Fire Emblem Awakening just waiting on my shelf.Given how Pokemon has shit for 3D support and doesn't use the c-stick at all why not just buy an$80$75 refurbished 2DS instead of a $200 New 3DS XL whose New features you can't use with Pokemon.
I suppose in the future there could be a Pokemon game that needs a New 3DS or is otherwise enhanced by one but currently I don't see the appeal.
Sorry, it just reminds of a friend I have who purchased a 3DS to play Pokemon Black and hated it (won't pay for XY despite being interested). If he had got a DS Lite and Heart Gold instead he would have loved that and it would have been half the price too, plus would have had money left over to buy Black and Platinum .
Any good cheap micro sd cards that you guys recommend?

Sandisk has never done me wrong. I'm currently using this 32GB in my JP n3DS:

Class 10 cards make your games pop up on the home screen faster if that matters to you.In terms of SD card, you just want one that is reliable. Writing speed only really is used in Smash photos.
True, I have't noticed it too much.Class 10 cards make your games pop up on the home screen faster if that matters to you.
I bought the 16 gig version of that one yesterday.
That isn't true. Writing speed comes into play whenever anything is saved. My second 3DS (owner didn't format before pawning off) also came with a digital Kid Icarus Uprising (comparing with the one I have on my main 3DSXL) and a generic no brand Class 10 SDHC card. The game saves on every menu press (Sakurai ) and during idol toss. I see first hand that the copy played off the generic card takes a lot longer to move between menus and the idol toss screen hangs for longer.In terms of SD card, you just want one that is reliable.
