Midnight Purple takes me back to my Gameboy Color.. Now if they would just make a purple "see through" 3DS.

 

[Matt Mortem]

I really like the purple color. I didn't think I would, but it really looks slick. The Black was just too bland and the other colors didn't do anything for me. I'm also surprised the 3D isn't driving my eyes buggy. Nintendo did a good job designing it.

 

[Travesty]

I prefer my black one. I don't need anything fancy, but the purple does look pretty cool, though.

I just want a silver 3DS.

 

[Matt Mortem]

I had an all white DS lite which was pretty cool, I would have bought an all white 3DS, but I have zero complaints with my purple one. Now I just have to wait to get some money to buy some games.

How does the red 3DS look? Is it a good looking system?

 

[Benstamania]

Red one looks decent. If I didn't have my LE Zelda 3DS I would go get a Midnight Purple one.

 

[Matt Mortem]

Red looked cheap to me for some reason. Maybe I'm just biased because I really like purple.

Hmmm. I've only seen the aqua blue in person and it was ok I guess. Red is my favorite color so I may end up getting that one but who knows...the purple color sounds really good.

 

[Matt Mortem]

The aqua blue looked the worst to me, by far.

Funny because I had first gotten that one, but then returned it for the purple one.

Good call. I love the look of the purple 3DS

 

[UltimateWebhead]

Wow. So far 3 for 3 on the purple. I'll have to check that one out.

Purple just screams old school game boy to me, lol. Like I said the only way they could make it better would be to make it see through purple. Too bad the CPP doesn't come in multiple colors.

Yeah, I was looking into the circle pad pro and realized it only comes in black. Oh well. At least there's an option to have a second analog nub.

 

[Benstamania]

Yeah, worth it IMHO. I wouldn't recommend playing RE without it.

 

[Duke]

I just played Mario Tennis Open & it's awesome!! Well worth it!!!

What are your favorite online multiplayer 3DS games?

 

[Benstamania]

Probably Mario Kart.. However, that's not very fair as it's the ONLY 3DS game I've ever played online. I hear it's kind of "broke" now though.

Here's a write up on Epic Mickey: Power of Illusion on 3DS.

Mine as of now: Mario Kart 7 & Mario Tennis Open.

 

[Matt Mortem]

How is the online on the 3DS? I tried going online with the Wii and it was a nightmare. Did Nintendo improve it at all for the 3DS?

 

[Duke]

In my opinion it's really good. Speaking of which, I'm hoping for a Mario Golf for the 3DS.

Broke? What does that mean exactly?

 

[Benstamania]

I've heard that the online portion of the game is, or was, hit hard by cheaters.

That sucks. I hate crap like that. One game I used to love to play, on my PSP, was Socom Fireteam Bravo. It had a great online multiplayer but was eventually run over by hackers and essentially made the game unplayable due to rooms constantly freezing, getting instantly killed once the match began, invisible guys running around the map killing you, etc. And then either Sony or Socom's developer just stopped caring and didn't do anything about the hacking. Why do people do that sh_t? It's so lame and completely ruins the experience for everyone else.
