No, it makes you an experienced RPGer.  It was the modern day equivalent of Mystic Quest on the SNES.

Did they announce a DS version?

So no Wii Hi Fi? LOL

As far as I'm concerned, the 3DS is next-gen to me!

After seeing that, I don't care for anything else right now! I want that! The game line-up for the 3DS has everything I always wanted in a handheld! And it's scary that this is just the beginning!

It's almost like what the PSP could've or should've been but never reached its potential, but ironically, will be met by the 3DS! LOL

Damn I can't wait for it! But like always, I'm going to wait at least six months before I get my 3DS since I have a aversion of picking up new systems at launch. But I may pick up the games while waiting!

I need to save some money now! Who knows how much it will be. I'm guessing $199, maybe even $299! YIKES! GASP

But holy crap, we can watch 3D movies on it! GASP Avatar on the 3DS! Mind blown!

Oh, and obviously there was no way the 3DS will be as powerful as the 360! That was crazy talk!

I speculated that it'll be about the range of a portable PS2 and GC. Hell, that's fine with me!

It would just be awkward to see the 3DS more powerful than the Wii. But since it can do HD, maybe it is! LOL!

An MGS was announced on 3DS, but the Mario Sunshine 2 is a joke (I really, really wish it wasn't, though!).

It was announced last E3.

I'm betting on a ton of PSP ports now in 3D.

In specs it probably is more powerful than wii. Remember that it has to render the picture twice over for the 3D effect.

Are there any specs on the 3DS cartridge? Or have they even confirmed it uses cartridges?

Don't know. Some guy on Gamespot is saying that it'll be download-only, which is probably bogus.

I'm guessing it'll be both, download and cart-based.

I'm most concerned with the battery power on this thing! The 3D feature will be like a virtual metroid sucking the life out of the system within minutes! I know you can turn that feature off but I'm not expecting a long-lasting battery with the system.

Hopefully we'll know soon.

Battery Problem: Not necessarily. There's STILL no moving parts inside and the DSiXL with its TWO HUGE screens has a MUCH better battery life than a DSi.

Battery tech is vastly improving.

It is cartridge based. You could see the cartridge slot on the back of the system --AND-- the schematics shown months ago for a "new" DS card was actually 3DS tech.

I have TWO very important questions:

(1) IS THERE A DATE FOR IT YET?

(2) IS NINTENDO DOING THEIR ROUNDTABLE THIS YEAR?

^^ Yeah. I know it'll be cart-based than how can it be backwards compatible? So of course it is!

But I won't be surprised if it had some sort of download feature that'll be much better than the DSiWare stuf, maybe like full DS games, GBA games, etc.

Damn, I CAN'T WAIT FOR THIS!!!

I'm sorry to askyou guys this, but my internet is sludge, and I can't get any game sites to load.

Did they not announce a date/ show Zelda Wii?

Or is the 3DS Ocarina the only Zelda news?
