Jealous.

Give this to me, Nintendo. I will pay good money.

I usually give Nintendo a pass on their weird decisions, but this one is too frustrating. Americans don't live in a bubble. We can see all the amazing faceplates and exclusives other regions are getting. And then to turn around and be like "nah, you guys don't need…

I'll probably end up getting the XL and trade it in whenever the regular model arrives, if ever. Not ideal, but...

Alright, but this means I can either go with the XL next month or wait indefinitely for the regular size. I wish a definite answer of "yes" or "no" were possible.

The XL's build quality was better and it was on sale. I'd go back to the original if it already had all the features of the new model, but it doesn't. That's the point...

This is disappointing. I was really excited to go back to the compact size of the original 3DS. The faceplates were just a bonus. Oh well.

I'll be pretty sad if they only bring over the new XL and not the smaller model. I want faceplates... And something that more easily fits in my pocket.

No, this is... Whenever it comes out.

I like how SF4 and SF5 looks, but a cell-shaded SFA4? Yeah. I'd pay real good money for that.

I'm in the process of moving to a new apartment and convincing my wife that I need to keep my small Toshiba CRT TV, along with my box full of classic consoles...

One day I'll have a game room. One day...

Sounds like every puzzle game ever.

Yep. D-pad is limited strictly to taunts, unless you're playing with the Wii remote, obviously.

My only gripe with this game is that I can't use the d-pad for movement. Sometimes I just prefer it over analog. I also have a strange desire to play with my Wii arcade stick, but the stick is mapped to the d-pad so I'm out of luck there. But that's nitpicking, I guess.

Other than that, it's one of the best games I've…

私は今の日本だ。

Exactly.

Need more open-world games that don't revolve killing everything.
AKA I want Shenmue 3.
