I have a 3DS/DS - general discussion.

CPP added two buttons, so you had your L and R (The R on the CPP for the exact reason Banjo listed, unless you had freakily long fingers, you couldn't reach the standard R button) and the ZL and ZR triggers.

The NEW 3DS has the ZR and ZL inset a little past the R and L buttons, so they have the same buttons, so functionally, everything *should* be the same control wise on either CPP or NEW 3DS.

The NEW 3DS will have the better processing/loading times of course, and the fancy-schmancy new "super stable 3D" and NFC too, so with any luck we can touch off our Amiibos to get 1 rupee in Majora's Mask, like in Hyrule Warriors...

I just did a quick speed test of loading smash after reading your post and their is a good difference.
57 second from opening game to actually starting a fight on the old one vs 37 seconds on the new one.

Here's a good comparison video too:

Has the team decided on a particular control scheme? Additionally, has any consideration been given to the possibility of supporting the Circle Pad Pro?
We don’t want players to be disappointed by controls, so we’ll include several control schemes, you’ll be able to choose the one that best match your way of playing.
At VD Dev our preference goes for a stylus control, because you have a aiming precision like as a mouse.
We have read on various forums that players would appreciate a Circle Pad Pro control, requests from our fans are very important for us, so we are proud to announce you that we are working on the circle pad pro integration in the game.

They said they'd like to include CPP support back in October 2013.

In other news, American Club Nintendo folks seems to have already gotten their copies of Flipnote studio?

Anyone know how long gamestop will hold a pre order for? Don't think I'm gonna be here for the 13th.

Got my new microSD card delivered today. So ready to transfer everything over tomorrow.

I saw that and went wtf?
But then I remembered and all was right with the world...
Well, aside from watching the moon like a hawk for the next three days

Anime app is up on eshop, 3 episodes of a Kirby cartoon, Pokemon advance(the ruby/sapphire arc) and weird football anime, streaming is flawless so far.

I want to say 48 hours but I'm not sure. I've definitely pre-ordered a game and picked it up the day after release once.

Thanks, turns out I don't need to hold my pre order, I was just afraid I was gonna be away for the weekend :P

Click and collect for Majora's Mask just became available on the Smyths site for those interested!

Damn the lack of pay-out blood- and sperm- donation clinics near the Carrickmines Smyths.

It comes with club points too, I had thought they were discontinued.

What's causing the faster loading times? Newer and faster sd cards?

Faster processor inside the 'New' 3DS.

Ok, I wonder if there's any point in ordering a faster micro sd card or will it make much difference.

What 'class' is your micro sd?

chrislad · 13-02-2015 12:37PM

I didn't do a massive amount of research but I don't know if it will make a difference.

Of course, the newer 3DSs could be different.

readyletsgo · 13-02-2015 12:57PM

Just picked up my black n3ds in gamestop on Henry st there, Woohoo! so excited! it looks deadly, feels comfortable. The snes buttons really pop out in the black.

There was another dude picking up the MM N3DS while I was there, €270 or so, crazy amount, but man, it looked pretty sweet!

Class 10. Would there be a real world difference between a 20gb read/write sd card and 45 read/write speed sd card? Just saw chrislads video so there probably won't be.

I've ordered a N3DS so just trying to get the best sd card for it, not even sure why I've ordered one though because I barely used my 2ds. I blame everyone of these nintendo threads for convincing me :pac:

AlanS181824 · 13-02-2015 04:59PM

I am so happy Europe got both versions and the Majora's mask preinstalled with that bundle. Almost makes up for constantly paying more for our games doesn't it?

Also, joint EU/NA release? Thank you Nintendo!

wes · 13-02-2015 05:11PM

Got my new 3DS XL. Will be doing the transfers later. Which seem like they will be a pain. Why can't Nintendo have a proper process for this. Quite frankly the whole thing is just silly.

I was thinking the same thing I don't know if I should use them or hold them in case they do a promotion for buying a new console and a game and get another game free but I presume that wouldn't apply if you've alreDy registered the console.
I know it's ending soon anyway but no harm in keeping them for a while.

CastorTroy · 13-02-2015 10:31PM

Anyone planning on playing games they've already played with the new 3D head tracking to get that experience? May get back to 3D Land

iamtony · 13-02-2015 11:03PM

Anyone getting issues with the 3d in majora's mask I had to switch it off as I was seeing double or triple of everything at times. I think it might need to be calibrated or something.

FutureGuy · 13-02-2015 11:04PM

MicroSD. Motherfcukers. Off to sell my recently purchased 32 gb card now.

I have an Animal Crossing XL and I am too.

I love the music in this theme. Anyone know which Kirby it's from?

Finally I also have a code for the purple Zelda theme. Anyone want it?
