Nintendo 3DS

I bought the Nintendo 3DS.

It's awesome.

At first I didn't buy any games with it, but the 3D effect is so awesome that I wanted a game that could do it. I ended up buying Ridge Racer 3D, Nintendogs + cats, and Super Street Fighter IV 3D.

SSFIV is my favorite. It handles really well and the online part is pretty easy to get into as well. Ridge Racer is a great game, though, too. The 3D is shown off really well, and it's also a good game for seeing how awesome the analog is.

Don't let haters fool you - the battery life isn't as bad as they make it out to be.

I leave mine on standby with wifi on at work for about 8 hours a day and still have enough power to play 3D games for about four hours. If I play regular DS games, it's even longer than that. If I don't leave it on standby and I turn off the wifi, it's also longer than four hours.

It's not quite as much battery life as the DS, but it's also more powerful, so anyone expecting identical battery life is a moron.

I'm really excited for Dead or Alive Dimensions and Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time 3D. DoA comes out in May and Zelda comes out June.

In the meantime I still have a backlog of DS games. ^_^
