This is a question I've been wondering about for a while. I understand that Nintendo will eventually stop making games for the original DS, so getting the 3DS will be imminent for me. I've asked a couple people, and they've said the 3DS is generally worth their money. What I don't understand is how $250 handheld with basically no difference other than the 3D graphics and camera is actually worth my money.
I'll just start a pros/cons list, and you can add your own. The point of this is, more or less, to help me decide whether I should get the 3DS, or wait it out.
Pros:
-Enhanced, 3D graphics. Ability to choose "how 3D" you want it.
-Most new games will be made for the 3DS, included the OoT remake.
-It has a dandy little analog stick.
-Has a camera.
-Apparently comes with an SD card (?).
Cons:
-Practically the same as the DS.
-Has a short battery life.
Although the list of "pros" outnumber my list of "cons," the fact that the 3DS is so similar to anything in the DS family pretty much turns me off.
So what do you think? Will you be a getting a 3DS? If so, why is it worth your money? If not, why aren't you getting one?
