Yeah, the NES games will be released early and the GBA games will probably be exclusive as Nintendo says they have no plans to release them to the general public.

It got dropped down to $170 on August 12th, and those who bought it before then at full launch price (not accounting for store deals) get 20 free download games.

I will also add that 10 of those games are more or less exclusive to this deal. I believe they're previous Game Boy games that there are no plans to release them to the 3DS store. I may have read that wrong.

It might be worth the higher price, even.

Fairly sure I've given up.
From what I gathered, they'd be NES Classics from the GBA and GBA games.

I think that's what I saw too... the NES Classics would be later available, but the other GBA games wouldn't. I could be wrong tho.

They said it, but I don't believe it.

Money potential is money potential. Look at the lack of backwards compatibility in most PS3s. PS2s are still selling at a nonzero clip...

More likely is an exclusive window.

And I already own most of the games. So I'm glad I waited. I would have been pissed otherwise...

At Costco in my area, they're already selling it for a discounted price (170$).

Though honestly, while this was the very thing I was waiting to happen before I bought one, I'm still going to wait. There aren't enough solid games that warrant my buying a 3DS. Though there are some upcoming ones that I either really want to get or have interested me.

So, yeah. Figured you guys might want a summary of what happened in the Japan 3DS conference.

Games announced that probably concern you: Fire Emblem (with 2 person battles? interesting), Monster Hunter Tri port, Mario Tennis, New RPG from Squeenix (Bravely Default, hilarious name).

New game footage: Luigi's Mansion 2, some secondhand footage of KH 3D Super Mario Land 3D, FF Theatrythmn (now has a grip on my wallet. They had to pull out my favorite scene out of any FF video game. They just HAD to go for the ballroom scene.) Mario Kart 7,

No mention of that odd second stick peripheral or a redesign.

Final thing, they just won Japan. Monster Hunter 4 is going to be on 3DS. IF that's exclusive, that's a system seller over there. The trailer looked very Shadow of the Colossus like. Might just get me to try the series.

Edit: Scratch the lack of second circle pad. Apparently was announced after conference. Cost 15-20 dollars, powered by single AAA battery. Will come with one battery.

Personal commentary: Not sure what to make of this. I'm assuming a redesign is in the works. If they come at me guns blazing like this, I may not be able to hold out for too much longer. I mean, Fire Emblem, Kingdom Hearts, Resident Evil, and Good People Die are just begging me to play them. Theatrythmn has potential based solely on the fantastic music in the series. And Bravely Default looks like a solid JRPG. Adding Super Mario 3D Land and Paper Mario to that list, along with Mario Tennis, Kart and Luigi's Mansion is just overkill. So, can I hold out another year and get the redesigned model, or should I take the plunge as soon as these beasts hit our shores.... And NoA better freaking localize Fire Emblem 3DS. I trust Aksys will do the right thing with Good People Die.

The fact it's on the 3DS makes alot of people happy, though.
