Earlier, I sold my soul to Nintendo by reserving a 3DS at Gamestop. Though the 50 dollar minimum practically set my wallet aflame, I feel good about being ahead of the game here. Its been a long time since I've had a great enough excitement in video games to even buy new material, much less reserve it. But its been many months since we all first layed eyes on the new portable system, and still not many of us know exactly what those graphics will look like. Its undeniable that the 3D effects are a major part of the hype and a big reason why myself and many others want to nab this jewel at launch.
I'm sure there are still some who haven't reserved their 3DS or maybe even made the decision to buy one. I can't imagine that here at Zelda Dungeon there would too many of those people though, with Ocarina of Time 3D just a few months separated from the system's launch date. So this thread pretty much goes out to the people who have already made the commitment, such as myself, and those who will for sure, with 100% certainty, be getting the system at or within the first month or so of launch. I did not reserve a game with the system today, mainly because I didn't want to spill the extra cash after laying down 50 bones all at once. I also don't see much of a point in reserving titles for the system as I feel all launch titles will be in abundance when the system hits. I mean, even though the 3DS is a hot topic, the simple fact that it isn't launching during the holidays gives me confidence that I will be able to get any of the offered launch titles shortly after picking up my system without the need to reserve. I originally had Metal Gear Solid 3 in mind, but found out that it had been pushed back. I'm thinking of Super Street Fighter 4 3D Edition, but I'm only a moderate SF fan and feel that I may be passing up the opportunity for something I might enjoy better...
So to those getting a 3DS at our shortly after launch, which game or games are you planning on definitely getting? And why would you rather have said launch titles instead of the some other choices?
