@MrPistachio You know that they're putting Snake Eater on the HD collection being released November, right?

@Alexisonfire What reactions?

Here there are complaints about camera control.

Noooo.

@Yuglyoshi
You are waiting to buy a 3DS until a 3DS remake of Metal Gear Solid 3: Snake Eater comes out? It would probably be best to buy the Metal Gear Solid HD collection when it comes out. If the other upcoming 3DS games are not of interest (Mario Kart, Star Fox, etc) than perhaps getting a 3DS wouldn't be best.

@Yuglyoshi
I'm in the same mindset in terms of 3DS purchase. If it's not coming out this year, then I'm fine with holding off until 2012. Or just putting that money into more PS VITA stuff.
Frankly, nothing else really interests me on the system. I'm not a fan of most of Nintendo's recent first-party offerings, and the only third party game I wanted was RE:M, but eff it.

@TheUnnamable
Really? When ever has a console/handheld had what could be unanimously termed an EXTRAORDINARY launch (esp. in recent memory)? The original DS had the same exact situation with underwhelming launch titles like Rayman DS, Bomberman DS, etc. and it went on to do extremely well. Same with the Vita; personally, I'm not excited for anything announced thus far for it including Uncharted: Golden Abyss (esp. compared to the next console Uncharted coming soon for PS3). But Vita like the 3DS I'm sure will have a lot of good games but they're likely not to be in overabundance sheer months after the Vita launches.

These things aren't popcorn machines: it's video game hardware and fantabulous games take time to code and create; people should keep their panties on. Plus, the 3DS has only been out since late March which only puts it on the North American market for about 4 months now. I'm actually enjoying this time of 3DS game shortage: allows me to concentrate on OoT (which I'm playing for the 1st time 'n loving it) and not create a huge backlog of stuff to play.

@C1ph3rDivyne
Launch sales were good, but overall sales are, IIRC, less then the Ds's initial sales rate.

People jus aren't snapping these things up left and right like you'd expect. I think it's alack of games combined with a lot of Vita hype, which overall is looking like the better system.

Nintendo needs to give people some solid, new reasons to buy the console, and so far, it's been a total phone in effort from them.

@C1ph3rDivyne I never said anything about having an amazing launch. Nintendo hasn't had good third party support since SNES and they keep lying and saying that they will. I bought OoT but don't care for it much since i beat it 8 times when it came out for N64.

What need is there to mention PSVita? There is no fanboyism here. The DS launch was bad as well but then prevailed. 3DS will do very well soon but the point I have is that they have to gather their act for this platform as well as their home consoles. You can't keep pushing the "hardcore" away and seeming unorganized with empty promises.

@mrantimatter Thank you. Someone reasonable. Ha.

@Anticrawl If those remakes are great games i don't mind,and i don't see why people should care either.A great game is a great game remake or not.

A lot of people don't see the need for $250 hardware to play games we already own and played.

@Ospov
Because ps1 games look terrible in HD. they would have had to remake the game ala the twin snakes to make it look reasonable on the ps3.

@mrantimatter

So why not just remake twin snakes in HD?

Again, as cipher said, the DS was in the same boat. Why people aren't picking it up today may be because the value people see of handheld games have dropped in recent years, due to Apple's demonspawn iPhone and Android's intrusion in the mobile game market, a problem the Vita as well will face. Price is no doubt a factor, since hardware and titles are so ungodly expensive these days, every purchase has to mean something to the consumer.

If Mario Kart, Super Mario, Luigis Mansion, Kid Icarus, and Starfox aren't new, solid reasons to buy a 3DS later this year, I dunno what is. All I see are people who think too far too fast, for a handheld that isn't even 6 months old.

Ugh, last time I reply on the Android app. The above comment was meant for mrantimatter.
