Arghhh, our crappy postal service were apparently unable to deliver my New 3DS Ambassador edition (I have no idea why), so it has been sent back to Germany.

Tried the MH demo again, when you guys said lock on I figured it was a traditional lock on that tracks, this doesn't, at the very least it rotates the camera, but I still find myself struggling with the controls and wrestling with the camera to much. Then again if it did have a tracking lock on then I figure that would remove "challenge" as I guess your character moving with the grace of a paraplegic elephant is par for the course for this series.

Actually when you learn the monster tells, you can dodge even if the camera isn't facing right at them. While camera controls have been an afterthought in the MH games (THE CLAW), they're not nearly as bad as you're making them out to be since you can just tap L at any time and the camera will center on the monster.

Yeah, it's really drat good especially when you get used to grabbing the essences without using the marker (don't use the loving marker).

I've been playing with the Charge Axe. I was pretty much all Long Sword all the time in 3G, but I really like the Charge Axe a lot. It's a lot less of a hassle to get into your "super mode" with it, and it seems like it's probably a little safer for other players around me :shobon:

It's also anime as gently caress, which I appreciate.

Have you ever played one of the monhun clones that have true lock on? It's actually way more of a hindrance than it is helpful

So, could I theoretically transfer things to my micro SD card, continue to use it in my Old 3DS XL with the SD adapter, then simply pull out the micro the day my New 3DS arrives, do a system transfer, and plug the card in?

It's pretty awesome in Toukiden, at least if you're using a bow or kusarigama.

There's no way for me to pick up a few extra coins to bump me over 350, is there?

I don't know if it's changed since CN is ending but games that you can redeem from it also give you survey coins.

Yeah but it doesn't have swappable faceplates, which seems like a huge thing people want, to accessorize their gaming system to match their Pokemon purse.

Awesome, it worked. Tricky part was trying to find a utility that would format the 64g card to FAT32 instead of exFAT. Fat32format.exe did the job perfectly.

Hey, I loving love Valkyria Chronicles and I approve of steampunk Valkyria. It's just more and more obvious that we'll probably never get another Advance Wars, and that this is meant to be the closest thing to a substitution.

So I haven't seen very many impressions on how well the 3D tracking works, which is the only reason I'd jump on the new system since it doesn't really offer much else. What's the verdict?

Seems like people who have been against 3D now say they keep it on almost all the time because it works so much better now.

Jun 22, 2004

The 3D tracking is suppose to be a significant improvement to the 3D mode. Nintendo found that a lot of people weren't able to use the 3D or were frustrated with how you had to hold your 3DS a certain way to get it to work properly. This fixes that issue.

GameStop might be getting extra shipments for the Majoras Mask n3DS cause they called me to ask if I wanted to switch over my preorder from one of the plain ones and after going to the store they processed it. Looks like you have to pay the whole thing off right away though.

I keep checking mine multiple times a day. It's a fun little mini-game, until I lose, anyway. I think I'm in the clear; I only ordered one, and it was within the first 15 minutes of them going up. The rumors of cancellations are supposedly coming from people who either ordered just before they sold out, or people who ordered multiple units.

That's why I am worry since when I ordered mine, it was actually showing it as sold out on the page, but since I was already in checkout it let me proceed.

It seems like MH4U and probably other games will take advantage of the beefed-up hardware to display better textures, also.

Better battery life, better speakers, faster processor that makes the UI, eShop and Web Browser run faster, built in NFC reader, and the right stick. If that isn't much to you...
