    Euro Gamestop showed the price to be 250 euro, so chances are it's gonna be 250$ in the states.

    Transformers toys aren't the only things being smuggled from Chinese factory lines. If we're luck, we might get a 3DS!

    [​IMG]


    What was figured out from inspecting the device and asking the smuggler.

    1-It has a 64 MB ram for games and a 32 MB one for the OS (Or it could be one 128 MB ram with 32 MB locked for the OS, though this is unlikely).
    2-It has a 1300 mAh battery.
    3-Currently manufactured colors are Black, Blue and Red.

    This version was snatched before the OS was installed so it only does nothing now.

    I'm a little worried for my Pocket in March, should that be the launch date, but yeah, I'm hoping for MK also, and Ocarina. I so want Ocarina. I was looking at one of the screenshots and it looked like you could see Kakariko modeled in 3D through the town gates, whereas in the original game, it was just a texture, so I'm hoping that some of those abysmal prerendered areas would be redone in 3D.

    note: it would also standout like an asshole in 3D if they stuck to those old backgrounds.

    the same way you get to see early DOTM prototype toys. Chinese factory worker shoves it down his pants and hopes he isn't caught.

    That's a truly ho-hum lineup to me. Not that I wouldn't want to see Street Fighter 4 in 3D, but having both versions on the console doesn't make it worth getting.

    I think that it'll be great to have a 3DS. But I don't think it'll be worth it.
    But at least now I can DO A BARREL ROLL! in 3D.
