I guess it's better to say next year, be wrong and have it ship early than to say it'll release this year, be wrong and have it ship late. They probably just haven't decided those details just yet.

Well, the sooner I get one the better, I suppose.

Yeah, I don't really mind how long it takes, I mean sure the sooner the better but I hope they take their time with this console and make it amazing at launch as well as the games that will be out by launch.

Speaking of, I just heard that Sega plans on releasing yet another new Sonic title at launch (I think they said the same thing about the DS though and it was a over a year after launch before Sonic Rush did come out, but at least it was worth the wait). Link (scroll down a little bit) - these posts were made by Ian Flynn, writer of the Sonic comics, but he didn't cite any sources

Hmm wonder what they got in store for the 3DS? If it comes out this year it could very well be near the launch of Sonic 4 Episode 2(and maybe Episode 1) so maybe it'll be ported to that too? From what I hear the iPhone version of Episode 1 has a bonus level, which kinda ticks me off so I wouldn't mind seeing a 3DS version featuring that level. Could be a Sonic Rush 3(4 if you want to count Colors :P), but I'm sure DIMPS is too busy at the moment working on Colors, unless they have resources divided on both, same goes for Sonic Team. They both have resources on Sonic 4 AND Sonic Colors.

Sonic was on that list of announced 3DS games. Like with Sonic Rush, I doubt we'll see whatever it'll be at launch though.

Oh yeah, that makes me wonder about downloadable games on the 3DS? Nintendo had better get their act together this time with memory management, reasonable save space if they provide some in the system (has this already been announced?), shop account management, etc. The capability to take 3D pictures and watch 3D movies is great, and we got the addition of music playback with the DSi, so they should provide us with downloadable 3D movies and music. If they are going to have 3D movies, downloading or streaming them is the way to go; I don't think I'd buy movies on DS cards. And might we see a handheld VC this time around? Maybe part of the reason that we didn't get it on the DSi is they were thinking ahead to this. Oh well it'll probably be close to launch before we find out about such things

Nothing about a virtual handheld, but this might interest you! :P

Decent quality video of the 3DS at E3. I could sort of see the 3D on the NSMBW picture.

Can't wait. Anyone have predictions?

My guess is November 14th or 21st at a price of $150 US dollars to $200 US dollars(200 wouldn't surprise me)
