3-5 hours of Battery life? With a 1300 mAh battery and 2x Arm11 @233Mhz? Something doesn't compute. Maybe Pica200 is at 400Mhz?

 

[1-D_FTW]

Steel Diver and Pilotwings are drool.

[LiK]

Mii shit, get on with it!

 

[Medalion]

3DS = no sale from me.

The battery life is even shorter than the PSP's! i'll wait for the next iteration I guess.

Just like new laptops I spose. More horsepower.

Ami why so obnoxious today?

But the horses wont be used to run old DS games!

 

[InsaneZero]

Well now, that's the tradeoff for having your system be on wireless mode the ENTIRE TIME.

 

[Hours Left]

Okay, skip to Paper Mario now please.

 

[_Alkaline_]

Expensive AND crappy battery life? Is this Nintendo?

This is what I don't get. Battery life is one of those things you can always guarantee on Nintendo getting right. One of those fundamentals Nintendo 'gets' and others don't.

This is troubling.

 

[Jikagi]

Even with that bad battery, I'll still buy it.

Expensive AND crappy battery life? Is this Nintendo?

Fidelity always takes a huge toll on battery life. You guys wanted your awesome graphics, so there's gonna be a sacrifice.

 

[Jintor]

This is troubling.

This might be worth skipping the first iteration on.

 

[swerve]

in my head the sound of air rapidly escaping from a balloon is playing very loudly.

so disappointing to see nintendo ignore the fundamentals.

I agree. 5 hrs, fair enough. 3? Good job i never leave the house.

 

[gkryhewy]

Of course I'll still buy it. I mean, really.

 

[trinest]

Wait this is a platformer?

Yes.

As for the battery power it doesn't not make me get it at launch but its a big bummer.

Really now? ... :S

 

[Snakeyes]

I wonder if there will be a way to turn off wireless.

 

[Gravijah]

So the battery is shit. Yay.

 

[_Alkaline_]

But the horses wont be used to run old DS games!

Ponypower can get it up to 8 apparently though.

 

[I NEED SCISSORS]

So is that list the launch lineup (or thereabouts)? They are all listed as Spring so I can't tell.

It's pretty good if it is - past handhelds have done much worse.

 

[Medalion]

Is it just me, or do those two Comedy skit guys look like they have no idea what is going on and have no real interest in the preceedings?

 

[AceBandage]

A switch on the side of the system.

Yeeeeah wait a minute. That's gotta be toggle-able, right? I don't care about that shit, certainly not 24/7 anyway. If it's 3 - 5 hours with WiFi it's like 6-8 if you can turn it off.

 

[wwm0nkey]

Im honestly fine with this, I never play more than 3 hours on a portable outside my house and when I play it inside my house its usually plugged in when I play...also you know there will be extended batteries.

 

[meppi]

My my. Another GAF overreaction? Color me surprised.

 

[Celine]

On here. 3.5 hrs to charge. 3-5 hrs 3ds, 5-8 hrs ds games.

That... is shit.

:-(

 

[Kard8p3]

People are surprised by the battery life? It's what I was expecting based on what we knew about the system. I'm always to busy to play handhelds outside the house anyway so it won't be a problem for me.

 

[Gospel]

Damn it to hell, i knew something would go wrong I KNEW IT

 

[Rewrite]

Ugh, can we please move on from this Mii creation thing?

 

[Hours Left]

Look at the camera! >_<

 

[LiK]

this stream is boring the shit outta me....

 

[_Alkaline_]

JUST TAKE THE FUCKING PHOTO

 

[trinest]

So the battery is shit. Yay.

Yes but who thought there wouldn't be problems?

 

[WillyFive]

Is it just me, or do those two Comedy skit guys look like they have no idea what is going on and have no real interest in the preceedings?

That's probably the joke, because the audience is laughing and applauding.

 

[geeko]

CLEVER, mii maker.

 

[Dr.Palutena]

i wonder what all things they are considering when factoring that battery life, 5-8 for ds games is still unreasonable.

 

[Joe Shlabotnik]

holy shit that automatic Mii creator

 

[Chittagong]

3DS supports Toad Hair

My my. Another GAF overreaction? Color me surprised.

Where is the overreaction?

 

[Threi]

THATS RACIST D:

 

[ShinNL]

Mii'ing people is gonna be hilarious.

 

[Stumpokapow]

My my. Another GAF overreaction? Why color me surprised.

my my another shitty "30,000 people must all have the same opinion because i saw some guy say something" generalization? why color me surprised

 

[Poyunch]

Oh so I didn't miss anything. I saw all this new media and freaked out. :lol

 

[Tricky I Shadow]

CLEVER, mii maker.

It’s very impressive......

 

[pirata]

Wait, facial recognition?
