About what this thing is all about.
PostedJune 4, 2012
The Nintendo 3DS is a very innovative system that definetely blows other portables out of the water. It is sleek, packed with features, and is gradually improving as time hustles along. However, battery life may be a problem, being that it can only take 5 hours maximum in one session on a full charge. Netflix, GBC games, NES games, 3DS-exclusive software, and even the DSiWare service are available on the unique Nintendo eShop. You can take pictures and record videos in 3DS Camera. You can record and edit sounds and listen to crystal-clear music in 3DS Sound. Have fun with new 3DS game card titles such as Super Mario 3D Land, Mario Kart 7, Pokemon Rumble Blast, and for the hardcore gamers, titles like Metal Gear Solid: Snake Eater 3D and Resident Evil: Revelations. There is really something for everyone on this little device, including the adults. If I bought this system for full price when it was $249.99 and I still don't regret it, you know this handheld has some potential. For the parents who care about their toddlers, the 3D feature should not be used for children under 6 years of age. There s a Parental Controls feature in the System Settings if you need it. Well, I'm out of stuff to say... You won't regret buying this!

This is a consle you want(even if you do not know it). It has good 3d graphics. It is portable(like you didn't know). It as good battery life. It as amazing controls. It has a rapidly growing library of good games( at the store and downloads). You can make the memory for what ever you want by using your own sd cards. It looks good even without the 3d on. Now I won't overlook the bad angle. Do not use the 3d in large doses. I use it only when I see somthing cool and think ''what would that look like''. The 3d does hurt your eyes.

good but there is one big flaw
PostedMay 26, 2012
this is game changing master peice and i can't even name some games needed for this cool system but there is one flaw the 3d can cause eye problems and head aches for those who started playing. but there is a way to pervent this if you have glasses for reading or other things wear them no matter what. wearing them kept me from going from the strong lenses to the strongest lenses known to man. there are some games i could recemend for this system like monster hunter,rune factroy, and metroid ( all three i want for this system the most).overall this system is cool but wear glasses and go through the head aches don't take medicine for them that's when your eyes are adjusting or getting weaker they stop after a few minutes or hours.

Great but it has very few entertaning games exept for Mario kart 7 and Legend of Zelda Ocarina of time.Also, as long as you don't play it for long periods of time on full 3d it wont hurt your eyes as bad.

When it first came out there wasnt too much I wanted until I started to see the old N64 games. The system works great and the 3D is pretty cool. The only downside about the system is that the battery runs out quickly if you use the 3D all the time. Its a great handheld system and a good buy for Nintendo lovers. Its a system fun fo all ages!
