There's even a sweet cameo from Nintendo of America prez Reggie Fils-Aime! Okay, okay -- it's just his signature. But he totally wrote us a letter!

Ben is awkward around the ladies. It's OK though. Ben got a 3DS.

Did they let you keep the women?

I'm pretty sure Reggie claimed most of them.

So yeah, guys. Do us a favour and write a proper 3DS review this time. The previous one was disappointing at most. Nothing personal, I just found it lacking.

agreed. Not to take potshots at any physical disabilities or anything, but it seemed absolutely ridiculous to have 1 person, who can't view 3D images, review a 3D console. Might as well have someone colorblind review a gameboy color.

CURSE YOU JOYSTIQ! Watching all these unboxings make the wait even harder. But still, I can't pry my eyes away from these videos. I NEED THE 3DS!

My gosh...what has Nintendo done with the 3DS logo on the game boxes? What have they done???!!!

Yeah, at first I thought they had printed the label on upside down.

They're intentionally trying to not only damage our eyes in the virtual world, but in the real world as well.
Mr. Gilbert had to flip the case per about 4 times. I would've done the same thing.

Yeah you could tell from the video that upon first look, they got confused about the box orientation. I don't blame them. Why the hell did they make it look so awkward...?

I have no clue. It's pretty baffling. I mean, you'd think that upon designing the case, someone at Nintendo would object. Strange.

Seven GORGEOUS women show up to deliver your 3DS, and you actually waste seven minutes of video, showing off the unboxing of a game console that everyone is going to be able to unbox for themselves in the coming months.
And you wonder why videogamers are always stereotyped as basement dwelling virgins.

A GORGEOUS 3DS shows up and all you do is stare at seven girls that delivered it, and you actually waste seven minutes of video, showing off your terrible social skills and these womans that look about as good as any other girl I'll be passing by in public places in the coming months.
And you wonder why virgin videogamers are always stereotyped as being FOREVER ALONE.
Go to Google if you want to look at beautiful woman, this is Joystiq and not Playw/urmanstick.

Even if you aren't that old, that shouldn't be a reference you miss. They only show the movie like 50 times at Christmas.

Didn't think I'd be this excited for the launch (especially with the lack of high profile games), but a couple of weeks ago the hype just got me and I pre-ordered it with Pilot Wings Resort.

Only 3DSs can scan it. There was a code posted in an earlier article, and it lead to nothing but squares, question marks, and strange numbers on Android barcode scanners.

Gah! why do you blogger get nintendo hardware so early? you should have to wait 12 days like the rest of us! and 6 games that seems a little excessive.
