  1. I'm waiting to see a comparative review between Asphalt (Ubisoft) versus Ridge Racer (Namco Bandai)… I'm not a racing fan per se but I will want to have one of these two in my library.

    I wonder what makes nintendogs + cats that much better than nintendogs on the DS? Normally, a second version of a game has to do a lot more to get a decent grade…. nevermind the 95 it actually got!

    I'm calling it… Combat of Giants: Dinosaurs will be one of the first bargain bin titles this summer! lol

    I'm also happy to see that nothing received a failing grade… although at this point, 65 may be a passing grade with the inflated scores. Maybe the 3D is worth an extra 10 points at launch.

  2. I'm still not really impressed with the launch at all. I think it was rushed. Out of those games listed I would get Street Fighter and Layton. Kinda wish Nintendo released another first party title. I would have been happy with Star Fox, Zelda, Paper Mario, Kid Icarus, or even Mario Kart. Which I bet that they'll release the red 3DS with Mario Kart. Much like they did with the original DS.

    Oh and, Nintendo, PLEASE, give us F-Zero on this 3DS. That would be insanity in 3D!

  3. It's actually Samurai Warriors Chronicle. The Dynasty Warriors 3DS game has only been announced.
