    Where is that 12-minute hands-on vid you promised!

    Slowly getting there... slowly

    @PajamaSam: Do take note this is just the first year of the 3DS, when most launch games are likely to look... shit.

    @Hami83: Still, this is an achievement for a Nintendo System

    @hazelnut1112: its pretty much confimred that the release date is March, just no specific dat yet. thats goin to be announced like in an hour

    @Sigismond0: You are kind of right there but in the consumers point of view, unlocked devices get updates first than carrier branded phones of the same model.

    They should just leave updates alone to manufacturers.

    Downloaded on Nexus S, very nice!

    @PajamaSam: NIINTENDONO SRII DII ESS-AH

    I saw bananas.

    @vinod1978: Majority of the apps are cross-update compatible. There really isn't that much API differences for developers to take a long time developing on for multiple versions.

    @Greg Lloyd: I wasnt arguing about whats open and what isn't. I am just stating what should be done.

    Carriers should have ZERO interferance with updates, they are one contributing factor to all this stuff.

    @JoJack82: That reason doesn't work if you have a Nexus branded phone, or a phone from a manufacture that updates regularly.

    I don't think i'll wait 2 years just for another revised version. There are some games you just can't miss.

    Since the 3DS can handle real-time augumented reality, im pretty sure it already meets the hardware requirements to record 3D video.

    @enzo_man: Ironic that the 3DS has the biggest battery of them all, the 1300mah is quite big. Nintendo seems to be working real hard for the battery life.

    They'll be panicing by the time they reach letter K.
