Swapnote is a surprising amount of fun. My friends and I send each other page after page of 3D notes and drawings. There are many new stationaries to unlock with play coins, voice and photo attachments, and official Nintendo employees even send us (and every other Swapnote user)notes.

And not one single 3D penis has been sent (yet. Let's be honest: It's just a matter of time).

@FatherChesz The benefit of the voice commands is that you don't have to stop shooting targets to use them. In terms of multitasking it is faster.

I enjoyed using the voice commands in dialog trees. I would say the answer in a tone that I felt represented the situation. It was like Mass Effect drama class.

It's odd, but I'm okay with third party publishers including an online pass to help them recoup used game sales and maintain servers fees.

However, when Sony, Microsoft, or Nintendo start doing it, I am not okay with it. With the 360, the Live gold cost is an obvious reason as to why, so I don't see MS ever having them. With Sony it feels like it conflicts with their whole "Play online for free" policy.

For more than half a year after the launch of the 3DS (a system I thoroughly enjoy) I told Nintendo, via the Club Nintendo surveys, that I couldn't imagine a game on the Eshop that would interest me enough to ever make a purchase.

It took a long time, but I own Freakyforms, Pushmo, and (soon) Sakura Samurai.

@EIranzer Not at all. There's absolutely no reason to assume that if they change the ratio of currency to MSP that that game prices would stay the same.

So upcoming Alan Wake: American Nightmare could cost 1500MSP ($15usd) under my proposal instead of 1200MSP under the current scale.

The only problem would be the point at which the rate changes. MS would either have to eat the conversion financially, or announce that all old MSP needs to be spent by date X.

Not good. Since MSP are not officially a currency, I usually pay less than the going cash rate for them. It's like I buy dollars at a discount.

Don't let a little math get in the way of excellent buys. A better compromise would be if they kept MSP and had them reflect a less obscure dollar amount. 2000 MSP for $20.00.

Bummer. I really like Gotham By Gaslight, primarily because Mignola is a god among men.

Please, Capcom, this is a must-have for Western shores.

P.S. For making me fight a Plesioth underwater I hate you (but the love will outweigh it if I get to play a domestic copy).

@Steve R I've dropped 200 hours into my psp copy, and other than not wanting to farm for some super rare weapon drops or play some of the five red skull rated vehicle missions I'm ready to jump right back in with some friends.

All the info you need. The process takes 1-3 hours depending on how much data you have already. I have played hundreds of games, have a ton of Rock Band dlc, and other dlc, so it took me 2 hours. It is probably advised to do a license transfer after.
