Nintendo 3DS

I bought the original grey DS about a month after the UK launch. It didn't come with a full game, but included the Metroid Prime Hunters (included MP) game, in a full UK retail case.

I'd vote for £249.99 - no game included as the UK RRP.

Nintendo have said it will launch at a similar price that the Wii launched at so i am expecting mo more than £200 which would also fit in with the Japanese price.

I do think we will have more than Nintendogs & Cats from Nintendo at launch. However Mario Kart seems to be a good way off from what has been said.

I'd go for either pilotwings or oot for a US and Euro launch release. Both of them sound like they're pretty much done and they'd both go down well in these territories.

In fact, a pack in oot bundle for £220 would be a great way to shift the new handheld and make people forget about the price...

@Wossy It's absolutely fine, I don't expect you to spill anything, it's nice to have a surprise. I have my fingers crossed for Metroid..

@darrenkerwin I think you're going to be pleased then...

->Open Spoiler<-

he's probably referring to the surprises, not specifically to metroid

[Tig]

if that is a reference to Metroid, I'm hoping it'll be a beautiful 2.5D platformer- not another first-person shooter using the "claw hand" control scheme.




Edit: Wossy has apparently tweeted 80+ times in the last ten hours.
when does he eat??

[gizmo1990]

Something tells me Nintendo aren't going to tell Jonathan Ross their top secret release schedule for their brand new console..

[abigsmurf]

Given he's presenting the EU 3DS announcement in Amsterdam I'd hope they'd tell him something about it or else it'll be a very slow show...

[Tig]

He certainly appears to know about unannounced stuff.

and that does look like a hint.

[parkinho]

Do we know what time Wednesday's conference will take place?

[Neon Ignition]

To be fair he didn't know Nintendogs, OoT and Mario Kart had been announced for 3DS to the unexpected revivals he refers too are most likely Pilotwings, Kid Icarus and Starfox. If Nintendo has any sense they'd give him queue cards for the event not software announcements, especially after his Fable 3 fiasco. My guess, he knows nothing

[Wil]

Seeing as Steel Diver's out on March 17th in Japan I guess we could be getting that at launch.
