My birthday is getting close, and I'm gonna get the black 3DS.

Don't get the DS lite (it's close to cancellation, GameStop stopped accepting them) or the DSi (unless you're on a budget), the 3DS can do everything those can except play GBA games. The 3DS is compatible with all the DSi software (but i think not flipnote studio because a 3DS-specific one could be coming) and will have its own virtual console of GameBoy and GameBoy Color games. And the 3D is really worth it, I tried it. Just don't show it to kids that are 6 and under.

WHA - ?!?!

A VIRTUAL GAMEBOY CONSOLE?!?!?!?

IF I GET ONE, I CAN FINALLY ACTUALLY GET THAT COPY OF POKEMON RED FROM MY FRIEND AND BE ABLE TO USE IT OFF OF MY FRIENDS GAMEBOY!!!!!!!!!!!1111111111111

Er....sorry for the all-caps.

Sorry to disappoint you, but that just means there's an online store where you can download full GB/GBC games to the system  tongue


I'm taking a break from Scratch until 2.0 comes out. Any messages sent between then and now probably won't be read - sorry.

I already have a DS lite, but it's pink and I've had it for a long time. I've decided to start looking for a Dsi. (At least. I heard the 3ds is good, but doesn't it hurt your eyes?)

So where are some good websites that sell either the dsi or the 3ds for a little cheaper? I'm looking on ebay, but not much luck... sad
I need a new one, to narrow it down even more.

NOT GAMESTOP. They rip you off.

Yeah, the Gameboy app thing is cool. I WANT THE 3DS SOOOOOOO BADLY........IT'S LIKE MY LIFE NOW.

Oops. Lost my maturity and dignity there for a second.  hmm

Those AR games look AMAZING. Do they sell other cards you can collect?

Best Buy or Gamestop in maybe a couple months.

Eventually the price will go much lower, and you'll get the DSi for a bargain  wink

I LOOOOOOOOOOOOOOVE my DSi. I play it all the time. It's definitely worth the money  big_smile  The 3DS is... eh. I mean the 3D features are cool, but the system is weird.

Let's just say the 3DS is cool for 3D games, and DSi is good for everything else.

System is weird?

BETTER online stuff.
SYSTEM UPDATES to constantly improve.
3D games.
3DSWARE (coming soon)
EPIC games

Why is DSi so much better for everything else.

I just like it better, kay? I have my opinions.

Well, you can turn it back on. Like, if you want to keep playing but the 3D is giving you a headache at the moment.

That's the thing they want to improve (which is a 95% chance they can't) in the 3DS Lite, which is bound to be what they call it lol.

The 3DS is thick, so that made sense.
