Louisgod posted:To confirm, which of the two Zelda games should I start first? The games run concurrently. The only thing that it changes is that you can carry over your rings from your other save (if I recall, it's been about 9 years since I played) and also get exclusive rings this way and it unlocks new content with references to the other game you played.

E: ^^ I have an ambassador 3DS that I got at launch. Probably going to get a New 3DS XL when it comes out because I've been wanting an XL model and hey upgrades Sir Unimaginative posted:DS games could only use CPU upgrades passively - and Wi-Fi upgrades not at all - unless they were DSi Enhanced. Wi-Fi is an optional library and I don't know about RAM but the DS was pretty drat low-level so it wouldn't surprise me if the developer, or at least their middleware people, had to do their own memory management. Yeah normal DS games used the normal libraries baked into the ROM which were WEP only. Which is sad because I'd have loved it back when I had a DSi if I could just leave my router on WPA mode all the time instead of having to drop to WEP to play my pokemon games online

Astro Nut posted:On Dragon Quest having connection issues, particularly perhaps that kind of thing ties into why the 'New 3DS' trailer gave a bit of emphasis to its faster download speed? After all, if the 3DS download speed has some kind of internal cap on it for whatever reason, not hard to see how that might screw over an MMO. "For whatever reason" is because its CPU can only download things so fast especially when it's doing other tasks such as running a game.

KingSlime posted:Weapon recommendations for mh3? I've tested the switch axe and the long sword and I enjoyed both. Of course, the sword and shield feels slick and classic. Then there's ranged weapons...ugb I don't want to commit to one type but I also dont want to add hours of grinding just to keep a few different weapon types up to date. I just started playing last week (and already have like 24 hours in it  ) and I settled on Gunlances. They're loving beautiful. I've been crafting different elements as far as I can currently take them in their trees so I can just swap out for certain monsters and beat their faces in way easier (same for armor resists).E: Just use whatever you like the most but what I've seen recommended you want power Phials (which most axes have anyway) since you do the most damage in blade mode anyway. Check up on the MH wiki people have created, it's really in depth! Haquer fucked around with this message at 11:20 on Sep 11, 2014 |

Awesome! posted:seriously though, it's $18 for the one they recommend on amazon. i think sticking it behind the back cover rather than giving it its own slot is more annoying. I've literally never removed my SD card after I slotted in my 16GB into my 3DS, so I'm not entirely sure why this is A Bad Thing? Also I still have like 4gb open on my card even after downloading Pokemon X (~2.7gb) and MH3U (~1.8gb) with tons of demos and movies. I might still get a 32gb card for the New 3DS XL I'm eyeballing when we finally hear a NoA announcement

homeless snail posted:You don't even need to grind in monster hunter until high rank either, some hosed up monhan opinions going on itt. Yeah seriously I went through low rank (the storyline section of the game, for those who haven't played) using the armor you get from the first monster and some weapons that I got the materials to make as I progressed without really grinding on anything. The only real grinding I've done is on Brachydios (high rank) but that's because 1) he's fun as gently caress to fight and 2) Dios weapons are fun as gently caress to use

KingSlime posted:Yeah I don't know what you all see in Kirby. I enjoy the games but for being a Nintendo franchise, Kirby is awfully plain and forgettable. Maybe it's targeted at much younger children, idk but Kirby games lack something to distinguish themselves from the masses of bland gaming experiences. At least the first Yoshi's Island is still awesome! So glad I have it as an ambassador game, since I boot it up every once in a while and play the hell out of it.

Getsuya posted:Man the Monster Hunter fanboys are seething hatred for the new one. They've got a bunch of really popular/serious 1 star reviews all over it. From a brief glance, apparently the monsters are too strong and fast and the knockdown now lasts longer so if you get hit it's very difficult to recover. Also since the monsters are faster there is no time to use any items or even to put your weapon away, so every fight has just become tank and spank. Yeah that sounds exactly like G Rank is supposed to be, so I'm not sure what they're whining about?
