Essentially, yes (or, at least, less limited). What's the benefit of it being limited other than to skyrocket the grey market prices? Shouldn't the goal being to give their diehard fans what they want?

I KNOW! I had my Best Buy pre-order canceled, so I'm all too familiar with the bungling of this launch. I don't understand why Nintendo hasn't announced a second run of these systems as a make-good to their fans who got completely screwed by scalpers.

The biggest disappointment for me was that the service really never worked the way I had imagined with streaming services. We only have broadcast TV, but then we also have Netflix, Hulu and Amazon Prime. I had thought that the TVii system would work as an overlay on those streaming services and then gradually gather…

I think I just got one on Best Buy! Said order confirmed!

The Japanese 3DSXL didn't come with one, but they added it back to the box for North America. I'm surprised they're not doing the same thing with this model!

I was able to launch the PS Store on my Vita last night, but it's non-functional once again. Even the website Store won't work. I wish Sony would be more transparent about the problem and the plan to fix!

So...did this just turn into a "negotiate with terrorists" situation? It seems like this sets a bad precedence for bored hackers looking to score a big payoff.

Bill Trinen confirmed that the plural of amiibo is amiibo. No "s."

Even the game's instruction-manual writers seem smitten with the guy...

Does Nintendo have, like, a dedicated hat development department?

Why are all these infographics so terrible looking?

This was actually a really helpful summary of what GG is. I've been confused as hell for days or weeks now (partially because I was trying to avoid reading about the whole mess for as long as possible in hopes it would blow over). But the stories of all the threats and general awfulness of the movement, especially…

These are some pretty repulsive pics! If possible, this sandwich seems more disgusting than the US Double Down. The "grey matter" patty is really clinching it for me.

I can't say I agree with the removal of inFamous: Second Son here, especially with so many cross-platform and cross-generation games. I get that the idea is to list the top games for this system regardless of other systems, but Second Son is a great game, a PS4 exclusive, and a next-gen-only graphical powerhouse.

I'm still confused why none of the 3DS redesigns seem to address the issue of having a raised bottom screen edge that can scratch the top screen. That was a major problem for me; I actually had to replace my first 3DS because the top screen had basically a full outline of the bottom screen etched into it. That said,…

Loved this article! It hit close to him literally because I went to Indiana University and now live in Indianapolis, not too far from Castleton Mall (I'm on Broad Ripple). I was a little younger when the N64 came out, but I remember it being the first system I ever preordered. I'll never forget sitting in the back of…

Ha! That's awesome. "We momentarily lost track of your face."

This seems cool, but I hope they patch the bugs. Wii U could be fun...or even Vita!
