Xevious 3DS

Just heard about this. I think a lot of classic games have potential for 3D enhancement. Time Pilot comes to mind too. I don't have a 3DS and don't plan on buying one (eye strain) but it is still cool.

The eye strain part isn't really bad, at least for me. I haven't experienced it to any greater extent than with any other handheld LCD device, and of course you can shut off the 3D any time you like. The battery life's more of a menace in my experience - the Virtual Console emulation support for Game Boy and Game Boy Color games works extremely well (save states are included, which is nice) but it does suck the power

you would change your mind if you played street fighter on it



I’m convinced Mario is a hobo.
He wakes up everyday in the same clothes, runs around in sewers, and collects coins for a living.
At the end of the day, he uses the coins to buy mushrooms

On the demo 3DS I played on in a GAME shop, I was impressed and liked the 3D, but I had to have it set low for my eyes to register the 3D without leaving two images (if you get me)

Didn't know the 3DS had that support in it,

That's why there's that adjustment - the best image is at a different point for everyone. I like it a bit over half way.

I've never enjoyed the street fighter games. I've only played the demo Pilotwings Resort on the 3DS.

I'm looking for a good deal on a DS or DS light for my son's 6th birthday. I would get him a XL or DSi but they don't have the Gameboy Advance slot. I think he'd enjoy some of those games, plus you can get them cheap.

Anyone have one laying around they'd sell me?

Same reason I kept my DS Lite, despite buying a DSi very recently.
