3DS, one week later. My review.
It’s been one week since the 3DS was released to the masses. For 7 days now I have raided faces and turned my table into a shooting gallery, much to the curiosity of my cats. How do I feel about my Nintendo 3DS after one week? Click on to find out!
So many possibilities”¦
I’ll try to keep this post from turning into a nauseating flood of gushing praise; after all, nothing’s perfect and the 3DS has some problems we’re all aware of’some temporary, some probably permanent. In the past week, however, I’ve experienced more wonderment and surprise from this little handheld than I’ve ever gotten from my first days with any other gaming device...
Nintendo news round-up: To no one’s surprise, we won’t be seeing a Nintendo phone, toaster, or dishwasher anytime soon

Want a free Pokemon?
Still trying to catch them all? Yeah, so am I. Even though my DS now has a 3 in front of it, I can’t help but pop in my copy of Pokemon Black to continue my creature catching adventure. To gear up for the launch of the Pokemon Global Link (and perhaps as a sorry to fans for delaying it), Nintendo has announced that they will be giving away a free Eevee evolution Pokemon to all that play an o...
Help me choose my wife’s next DS game
My wife doesn’t play many games ’ maybe 2-3 per year, if that. When she does, she prefers the DS. Here are some of the games she’s most enjoyed in recent years: Picross 3D Bejeweled Tetris/Dr. Mario Sudoku Phoenix Wright (although her interest in that waned) As you can see, she likes puzzle games.
