0 Upvotes and 0 downvotes? I see you're playing reddit in challenge mode.

Edit: Just looked at your profile and wow, you always play in challenge mode yet have so much comment karma. You are a god amongst men.

isn't the DS getting outdated? also the games i want ex. Mario cart, star fox, zelda are all for the 3DS or most of them are

[–]Buridoof 0 points1 point ago

Sequel, slight graphical update, slight graphical update. They're not really worth upgrading for.

[–]kjp0701 0 points1 point ago

but isn't white 2 for the 3DS as well as Star fox? because i know you can't play 3DS games on a DS and nintendo arnt making DS games anymore

[–]Buridoof 0 points1 point ago

BW2 is for the DS. You can get Pokemon Dream Radar on the 3DS eShop which integrates with BW2 but that's about it. As for other DS games, there're still many good games being made for the DS.

That's sort of the problem, the majority of 1st party games for the 3DS are just remakes (Hardly, more like slight updates). The 3DS and the "remakes" are great for anyone who's never owned a DS or played the original games.

That's why it's not worth upgrading. If you have a DS keep it until the 3DS picks up speed. It's just my own opinion that the upgrade isn't worth it, especially if you trade in a DS at gamestop for it (considering they give you so little).

Download ROM.

I live in Europe and pre-ordered in June. But if I can play earlier, I'll still get the ROM.

[–]Reconical[S] 0 points1 point ago

i would get the American rom if i didn't ave a shit-ass laptop :3

[–]mynameisomar 1 point2 points ago

My DS broke and I have to wait until I can rationalize either A) getting a 3DS or B) buying another DS this late.

[–]jaynecobb01 0 points1 point ago

I'm not getting it until the 31st. and that is if amazon delivers on expected arrival date.

[–]ScaryNight 0 points1 point ago

not till january for me, but waiting isn't so bad.

You're going to be sneezing at your computer?

[–]ImALeaf 0 points1 point ago

I feel like a dick since I've bought black 2 twice and white once (I gave black to a friend)

[–]Malencius 2 points3 points ago

I'm getting my copy on the 19th as a birthday present, so I don't really mind the wait :D

[–]Reconical[S] 1 point2 points ago

Same :D
