chakoo Posted September 10, 2018 Share Posted September 10, 2018 Hello to the dozen of us left... Anyways since the 3DS has cooled off a lot for most I though I would jump start the community thread again like we use to have on the handheld boards for those of us who wish to talk about 3DS stuff that might not warrant a full topic of it's own. There is still some decent life left in the 3DS with still a few notable titles on the way (Luigi's Mansion, Etrian Odyssey Nexus and Persona Q2). @GameDadGrant @CastlevaniaNut18 So anyways to kick off the thread, I would like to celebrate with showing off my 37th 3DS/1st n2DS.... It's amazing to look at in person. I was talking to GameDadGrant over PM about it since he also got one and we use to talk about n2ds LE in the old thread. Normally I don't open these but I couldn't help my self with this one. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Biggie Posted September 10, 2018 Share Posted September 10, 2018 As soon as a good sale on a 2DS happens I’m going to snag one. I still need to play Metroid and the new Wario Ware. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can see them doing a $100 n2ds this year like they did the $100 n3ds a while back. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CastlevaniaNut18 Posted September 10, 2018 Share Posted September 10, 2018 I've got Luigi's Mansion and Mario & Luigi preordered as of now. I'm sure I'll end up getting Persona Q2 at some point. Maybe at launch if there's a special edition. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GameDadGrant Posted September 12, 2018 Share Posted September 12, 2018 Has Persona Q 2 been announced for localization? I’m looking at downloading Dillon’s Dead Heat Breakers sometime soon. I wanna finish off Radiant Historia: Perfect Chronology first, though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
darkness35 Posted September 12, 2018 Share Posted September 12, 2018 HORRAY THE THREAD REVIVES ONCE MORE. I haven't been playing jack shit on my 3DS. Sucks, because I was starting Strange Journey and beat the first area boss.... only to not save because I thought a new quest after unlocking new area was going to be easy. OH boy I forgot the golden rule of SMT games. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chakoo Posted September 12, 2018 Author Share Posted September 12, 2018 =( I've been tempted to buy Yo-kai blasters this week but it's been slow to show up at retail stores in Canada. Only one who seems to have some stock in stores is EB and it's kind of sporadic (one close to work has done, one near the mall has red but now blue, only blue is further out of the city). =/ I might have to cave and just hit up amazon.ca for a copy. I know Yo-kai watch 1 & 2 were everywhere in Canada, and still is, but 2.5 wasn't and I feel this one might be harder to find in a few months. =/ In the mean time i've been playing my import copy i've had for a while. 20 minutes ago, GameDadGrant said: Has Persona Q 2 been announced for localization?

We're getting Etrian Odesy Nexus next year and that just hit japan a few weeks ago. Plus it's persona which sells. I liked the demo to Dillon's Dead Heat, I'm kind of angry that we didn't get a physical print but Europe and Japan did. =| 12 minutes ago, darkness35 said: OH boy I forgot the golden rule of SMT games.

GameDadGrant Posted September 12, 2018 Share Posted September 12, 2018 @chakoo Etrian Odyssey Nexus, eh? Wasn’t aware of that one. Nice! Good to see 3DS still getting support into 2019. I wonder what else is coming 2019, if anything? Maybe some more stuff was going to be announced/revealed in that Nintendo Direct that got canceled due to the typhoon?

Hurdyb1 Posted September 12, 2018 Share Posted September 12, 2018 I so don't need it but I so wanted to pull the trigger in a New Nintendo 3DS XLR recently but my 3DSxl is just fine. I just wanted the better 3ds functionality and the ability to get some of the SNES games. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GameDadGrant Posted September 13, 2018 Share Posted September 13, 2018 Nintendo Direct happening today. I don't know if it'll happen, but I'm hoping for some surprise 3DS announcements. Theatrhythm: Dragon Quest, anyone? Maybe ride on the hype of the recently released Dragon Quest XI? .....why oh why did they not just localize the 3DS version of that game? Uuuuuggghhhh..... By the way @chakoo what are your party plans if/when Persona Q 2 is announced for North America? I'm thinking toga party, personally.

CastlevaniaNut18 Posted September 13, 2018 Share Posted September 13, 2018 I'm excited about Kirby's Epic Yarn. I've had it on Wii for years, but I never got around to it. I'll definitely play it on a handheld. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chakoo Posted September 13, 2018 Author Share Posted September 13, 2018 Yay 3ds still has some life in 2019 even if it's mostly ports. Also I picked up Yo-kai Watch Blasters Blue Dog today (local gameshop got a copy). I was always curious how the 2.0 content was going to be rolled into the USA release but happy to see it's coming as DLC. Now all the more reason for others to grab the game since there will be tons of content. 3 minutes ago, CastlevaniaNut18 said: I'm excited about Kirby's Epic Yarn.

I know it's a port but I enjoyed Yoshi Epic Yarn on 3DS so i'll gladly pick this one up since I never got around to playing it on the Wii even though I had it.

CastlevaniaNut18 Posted September 13, 2018 Share Posted September 13, 2018 I'm also thinking I'll play Luigi's Mansion for my October game. I played the original a couple years ago for Halloween. It's a nice, short game. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’m not a fan of the black or white ones. Keep an eye out for black friday I say. Japan got a Minecraft Green system this year. Maybe we'll see it as a surprise system. If not, how about purple? (Hits september 28th) I also still see some retailers have the Zelda or Pikachu n2ds LE units in stock. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chakoo Posted September 17, 2018 Author Share Posted September 17, 2018 Just wanted to check in on Yo-kai Busters. I'm having fun replaying through the game in english. It's not mind blowing good but still much fun like a saturday morning cartoon. So consider giving it a shot sometime before the game becomes hard to pick up (It's nintendo published but I'm not seeing many copies up here in canada). On 9/15/2018 at 8:38 AM, GameDadGrant said: I may need that black and red unit. I’m thinking of importing. Nah it's too generic. If you really want a red unit the Pokeball one is still the best. And if you were to go for imports. The DQ Slime n2DS XL is very nice... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chakoo Posted September 28, 2018 Author Share Posted September 28, 2018 Another 2019 title was announced today, one that many were questioning if it would ever come stateside.

chakoo Posted September 29, 2018 Author Share Posted September 29, 2018 In prep for a business trip, I picked up a few more 3ds goodies. I got Code of Princess since it's $10 on eShop and then grabbed Culdcept Revolt LE off amazon since they're practically half off atm (It was $40 Cad). So hopefully I'll have tons of time on this trip to get through some of my games (taking a few others with me to finish off). Also Yo-Kai Busters expansion/update finally hit the eshop. Sadly you won't see it listed on the store, the only way I could get my system to realize it was there was to remove and put back in the cart on my system (then it let me know an update was available). =/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brian Posted September 29, 2018 Share Posted September 29, 2018 Jake Hunter Detective Story: Ghost of The Dusk just arrived in the mail.

chakoo Posted October 8, 2018 Author Share Posted October 8, 2018 Question, why did people find epic Mickey to be a good game on the 3ds in the past? I found a used copy for cheap and gave it a shot. The constant drawing and erasing is a bore. -.- ———— btw, I end up keeping to yokai blasters mostly on my trip. Still enjoying the heck out of this game.
