Damn, that's a shame to hear. That was my most anticipated first party 3DS title. Well, there's still plenty of time to tweak the controls and whatnot.

Because you weren't playing it. It's a showy game. It looks cool, but playing it is another story. You'd probably be better of with Starfox. Similar gameplay, but it doesn't pretend it's not a shooter on rails.

Hajimemashite, simply: Nice to meet you.

Basically, if a US General was to go up to their translator and ask: How do I say "Hello" in Japanese? They would get that as an answer xD
I don't know much about the US military but I'm told that it's the USS Ronald Reagan...?

There seems to be information available about the relief effort by the US of A here.

Ronald Reagan is CVN-76. Maybe the number can be changed.
The pictured boat has a 73. I'm assuming that's the CVN number.

I've always found these kind of military pictures amusing hell, a friend got bored and made his ships spell out something stupid once but what America is doing is cute~

That's the USS George Washington, right?

Something that, itself, screws into the 3DS's screw holes, but provides a mechanism for a spring latch cover?

Not to say that the DSL didn't have a convenient third-party approach to batteries; there was one somewhere that actually came with a proper hinge-lock cover to replace the regular one.

Seeing that the whole back plate of the 3DS needs to be removed, it might be possible to see a replacement backplate with battery door?

As in, replace the whole back with a bracket and latch of its own?

Yeah, and not to mention that if you REALLY wanted that battery life you could carry both batteries for like 9-10 hours total. Sure since you'd need a screwdriver it wouldn't be THAT convenient, but the option is there.

You could pick up some low profile thumb screws.

My concern with multiple batteries would be the life of the batteries given they would be charged at odd intervals and one might be neglected for months or days.

And the batt itself is only 20USD.
That's a pretty good price.

Nyko's been good with well-thought-out peripheral concepts, IMHO, but I wonder.  $50 extra for double battery and a dock that actually fits it?   Unfortunate.  I'm going to see how the 3DS's battery flies with me before investing, that's for sure.  I got used to my PSP, but then I don't take it out of the house often due to lacking a case.



Minor point, but I'm glad somebody actually took a moment to address 3DS backwards compatibility controls, from engadget:
"...if you prefer you can now use the analog stick in classic DS games -- without the use of its analogue sensitivity, naturally."

Many thanks.  As a matter of comfort I prefer to keep my thumbs high for primary control.  Though, using an analogue stick as a "joystick" for a game whose primary drawback is lack of analogue control (Super Mario 64 DS), will probably feel a bit weird.

If the battery hooks directly to the 3DS's battery slot thingy, then I assume the 3DS's charging port would work to charge it. The Voltage isn't any different, just the mAh

Now you're playing with (double battery) power! (Cubed3)



Thoughts?

I love it!

Would have been nice if they designed it to fit in the Nintendo Dock.
I don't like the contacts and it seems it doesn't lock into place.

The probably could have saved some production cost forming it to fit in the 3DS Dock and just using a cord.

And then you changed his name here to the name he doesn't like.

I saw those too. I unfortunately made the mistake as passing them off for random junk. I was changing multiple things at once and thus messed up the graphics and backgrounds to the opening stage and the ice stage. So when I saw those other stages, I thought it was due to the game showing random crap because of my tinkering. I'm glad you pointed it out though as I probably wouldn't have gone back to them. Thanks!  It would have been sweet if those stages were more complete.  óVó


That's just there as a place holder. Capcom does this a lot as I've seen similar stuff in unfinished builds of their other games.

Henger83 said the same thing.

Maybe you guys are twins or something.

That's great for Netflix movies.

But doesn't answer any questions about TV-Out.

But they already announced 3D How to Train Your Dragon for the system didn't they?

Not for Netflix, specifically.

With PS3, 3DS, and PC support, I wonder if Netflix will ever start doing stereoscopic movies for Watch Now.
