retroed Posted January 26, 2011 Share Posted January 26, 2011 I just pre-ordered SSFIV with ShopTo, as most of us here seem to be going for it and it will be good to try out the online. I'll order Pilot Wings at some point, or pick up in store. I've also pre-ordered Ocarina of Time with Zavvi for just over £25 using a 15% off code.

retroed Posted January 30, 2011 Share Posted January 30, 2011 Picture isn't working here for me, dude. Nor is one from the gaming purchases thread? I pre-ordered my 3DS at Gamestation yesterday, and cancelled with ShopTo. I know I'll be paying a bit more than I would have at ShopTo, but it's something I want to go and pick up for myself, and I have some credit to use. Also, after the wonky screen problem of my XL, I want it to be easy to exchange should the worst happen. Either way, pre-order GET. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pikman Posted January 30, 2011 Share Posted January 30, 2011 OH F..F...S... I don't know if I can resist with you all pre-ordering. If I'm not on here for a while you'll know why! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
retroed Posted January 30, 2011 Share Posted January 30, 2011 I got invited to a pre-launch event at HMV Bristol in mid-Feb. I'm not driving a 300 mile round trip to see it, though. I can wait. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

retroed Posted January 31, 2011 Share Posted January 31, 2011 And here's a comparison shot between N64 and 3DS. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stoobie Posted January 31, 2011 Share Posted January 31, 2011 Thats not the N64 version tho is it - that doesnt have the fuzzy filter effect that the N64 had. It makes it look really bad there Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
retroed Posted January 31, 2011 Share Posted January 31, 2011 I pinched the picture from GAF. Maybe it was taken with an emulator? Either way, the new version looks a lot more than just a lazy port. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stoobie Posted January 31, 2011 Share Posted January 31, 2011 Yeah I think it is an emulator version. The new version does look really nice tho. Maybe I can play OoT yet again Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
retroed Posted January 31, 2011 Share Posted January 31, 2011 I've only ever played a few hours of OoT, so it'll be a mostly new experience for me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hendo Posted January 31, 2011 Share Posted January 31, 2011 New bit of info on the friends list features and stuff. If you select Game Memo, your game will be displayed in its paused state on the top screen (you can either view one screen or both screens from the game on this top screen) and the Memo will appear on the Touch screen. This enables you to write notes - perhaps about a puzzle in the game - on the touch screen. Your memos can be saved to a SD card as an image.We know that Friend Codes are back for 3DS but Nintendo has added a Friend List this time which enables you to see which of your friends is online and what they're playing. You can block your current online status if you don't want your friends to know what you're playing. You'll know when one of your friends appears online as the 3DS's LED will flash orange. Finally, if you want to know about your latest SpotPass and StreetPass transfers, go to the Notification Applet. When you receive something new, the Applet's icon on the Home menu will change. Also the notification LED will flash when SpotPass and StreetPass transfers are made while your system is in Sleep mode. Still not ideal but they're getting closer.

Jimboxy Posted February 2, 2011 Share Posted February 2, 2011 Triple fist? Thats probably worth missing a 3DS event for. It must be like the Grand Canyon or something.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
