A little late, but yep. Saw this yesterday.

wtf is with that launch list you have up there? Maybe two of those games are accurate. I would tell you exactly if I wanted to compare them. I can for sure tell you that 90% of those titles are either slated for Fall to Winter 2011, into an unspecified period of 2012.

can we play regular DS games on this 3DS ?

You can. It's backwards compatible.

As far as i've seen, yes it does!

The 3DS supports both current DS cartridges and the 3DS cartridges

You can also run DSiware on it.

when is it released in Australia ?

It has been confirmed on March, with no date specified.

omg, sooo expensive. I guess I'll buy it in next 3-4 years :/

That isnt the real launch list...Kingdom Hearts 3D, MGS 3DS for example arent launch titles.

3DS is basicially REMAKING almost every game in to 3D on a hand held.

can I buy it online??or something like that??

Price'll be jacked up probably.

I'll probably wait for at least half a year before deciding to buy one. Even though I'm VERY tempted to buy one at release, there's not enough games to warrant an immediate buy. And besides, waiting longer means the price'll drop by a few bucks.

im trading im my dsi as it is no better than my dslite as the L and R buttons are broken and i wont have to wait long before an update for my scds2, ttdsi or ex4i comes out so i wont be waiting long

Same boat here, minus the trading. I have an old school phat DS that still works fine but I need an upgrade and I won't bother with getting the same handheld when the next one is coming out soon.

I got a tip for y'all.Wait for 3dslite/xl :DIt'll be cheaper by then and flash carts would of been perfected...

Nintendo said something about not making one for a while. It won't be like the DS and then, the DS Lite they said.It's the size it is for a reason.
