    I'm curious to know how many people got a 3DS for Christmas this year!
    I went out with my 3DS yesterday for a walk about and got 3 streetpass hits. Thought there would be more people out after xmas day to test it out.

    So did you get one?
    What games did you get with it?


    I got mine last summer so 'atari jaguar' for me

    Got a lovely blue one with mario and zelda xmas morning! Haven't been out much, nowhere sufficiently populated for streetpass anyway


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 9,258 ✭✭✭MrVestek


    Yeah got a lovely blue one with Super Mario 3D Land... loving it so far. Much more impressed with it than I was when I saw it demoed in store a few months ago.

    Went out and bought Mario Kart and Sonic Generations for it earlier. Sonic Generations is awesom! Already played through the console version so having the extra levels to play through like Casino Night and Mushroom Hill is great.

    Only had one streetpass hit from some kid when I went to Smyths yesterday to buy the games, other than that I haven't been out with it much. Let's see how many hits I get when I go back to work next week :-)


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 2,836 ✭✭✭TanG411


    I got the black one with Mario Kart 7 and Super Mario 3D land from my family. Also got Rayman 3D bundled with it.

    Got my first Streetpass hit today in Cork city. I was delighted when I saw the green light. :D

    Got the kids a black and red with about 20 fgames.

    Kids now cranky and suffering sore necks, its GREAT!!!

    Got a red 3DS with Mario Land Christmas morning! Also got a cool Mario Statue - they were bundled in Game Stop. The 3D takes a while to get used to - but I've stopped going cross eyed at this stage. Mario Land is good but way too easy. I was going to buy Mario Kart in HMV St. Stephen's day, but I thought I wait and hold off on it for a few weeks - spread the enjoyment out a bit!

    Aww man, I have been putting off getting Sonic G for a while, just not sure, how does it look in 3d? Is Sonic too fast for it? Its completely different from the home console versions yes?

    Ah MK7, love that game! Got to play with my buddy locally last night, super fun! Online play is great too!

    I got mine a week before Christmas, cause thats when me and my lovely boyfriend exchanged gifts :) I got the red one and he put €30 on my e-shop. Just have pullblox so far, not sure what other titles are good.

    Santa brought me Super Mario Land, Mario Kart and Ocarina of time.

    Have only got 3 streetpass hits from strangers, haven't been out much though. Got loads from my boyfriend, 2 a day. Its great cause he is such a high level on streetpass quest now! NERDS

    question how long has he playing games, there's a difference between gaming geek and gaming nerd, a gaming nerd has playing games more casual playing and advance gamer, and knew games for long time consider him a gaming nerd

    while gaming geek is someone just casual play games all the time, not really advance gamer, hasnt been playing very long time, consider him a gaming geek

    general public may call him or her a gaming nerd but he went gaming convention, i gamer who casual play games all the time and call himself/herself a gaming nerd, then the gamers from the convention would laugh at him or her, they call him or her a geek because their eyes he or she just gaming geek

    Pretty much constantly since Centipede on the Atari 2600. Currently on PC, Wii, DS, 3DS, 360, PSP, PS3. Nerdy enough?

    No.
    Do you say "glaven"?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 208 ✭✭ThunderApple


    My sister got one and I got a couple of Paysafecard vouchers because "noone knows what I'd love to play" and a Kindle instead. My parents told I was too old for such a toy. Grrrrrrr. But it's okay, I'm going to buy it myself.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,483 ✭✭✭Ostrom


    Too old? I ripped mine open with gay abandon under the tree on christmas morning (I'm 27), after patiently waiting a month. And i hardly slept the night before with excitement.

    For anyone still looking, Gamestop in town has a fair few of the Zelda 3DS consoles left.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 10,469 ✭✭✭✭GTR63


    Got my 3DS at launch haven't got any of my Ambassator titles yet. Got Mario Land 3D and Mario Kart 7 for the Christmas enjoying them. I'm tentatively looking forward to Resi Evil Revelations in late January but dreading that circle pad add on that I think is bundled with it.
