So what's going on with you Move owners?

Anything cool you're playing? Anything new coming for it? Are you still happy with it? Awaiting new games or what? Anyone thinking about getting HOTD or the RE lightgun ports?

I have not played shit with it. LBP2 for like 2 days when the move pack came out. A demo here and there.

Am I happy with it... its there. When I play FPSs I am sure I will be happy. I have Killzone 3, Infamous 2 move update, and Dead Space Extraction to play on it. Bioshock will use it so that is great. As for exclusives, LOL what exclusives. Sony seems to ignore it and so do I.

I really enjoyed playing Resident Evil 5 with it....and that's basically all its been good for. To me, both Move and Kinect have been a complete joke thus far which is why I don't understand the hype at all. Most of the games that use either I have either no interest in, or they use it in a way that doesn't really add much.

Got my second batch of Vita games today! Fifa, Mrvl Vs Cap  , Lumines. Wow first off FIFA is brillant! Playing with the back touch screen  for shooting is very intutitive  just loved it. Mrvl Vs Cap 3  is freaking amazing glad I waited to get it on VITA.  And Lumines is well Lumines it was fun as usual but did not excite me all that much.  I can't wait to see what games coming later in the year are going to be like, ones that really take full advantage of Vita. What a great start.

Elements of what pachter said had some truth, other is just crazy.

+ Nintendo certainly widened the customer base for gaming, and certainly some of the people who were introduced to gaming by the Wii have moved on to more casual gaming. But they'll be back if the Wii U is priced in a friendly way.

+ Is Nintendo in disarray? They have to confront the second circle pad issue that's kind of floating out there at some time.  I would think they'd be in a hurry to get a revised copy of the 3DS out pretty soon so they can go back to making money with it (by reducing manufacturing costs), but if they have to include a second stick then that's not going to help with getting the costs lower -- so maybe they keep it as an optional extra.

As for the Wii U, hardly anything is known about how Nintendo is going to position and price it. So to say they are in disarray over that is not valid.

+ If Pachter thinks any console is ever going to retail at $600 again he is high.

The question was to all Move owners.

This is a real patent^ how is it going to work unless the Wii U screen has become multi touch?

Iwata said that they would be making a profit per each 3DS sold by April this year I think, or earlier. They must have done something technologically or worked out a component deal or something.

I think they will hold off on a 3DS lite announcement till at least early next year with a late 2013 release possible. It might include a second stick and a higher megapixel camera. Outside of that I don't see what improvements they can make other than lighter and slimmer. But IMO it's weight and width are fine, this is no DS Phat.

PSP has never had a second stick revision right?

The only reason I bring up the second stick revision is that Nintendo has produced it, so they must have seen a need for it. I guess they will wait and see how it goes with MonHun etc... and how the Vita does. They have plenty of time.

I wonder why Nintendo never implemented the second slider on the original 3DS design?  Surely they have thought about it. How much more would it have cost?

Anyone know the last time that Patcher made a big prediction that actually came true?  I just read that interview with him, and it may be one of the dumbest things I've seen in a while. Nintendo had to announce the pricepoint early?? Why?? The audience that Nintendo goes after wouldn't pay attention to any price announcements for something that won't launch for another year. Next thing you know he'll say Epic Mickey 2 will sell a million copies in Japan.

Hogwash! I'll have you know as a child I would take my Wiffle Ball bat and pretend it was a lightsaber by smashing flies into my dog's shit in the backyard! The force is STRONG with this one!

Yeah I think Nintendo screwed the pooch by not including a second analog slider for the 3DS. I'm expecting them to include it in a revision. They could also make some other improvements in 3DS revisions such as battery life, better cameras, better buttons for start/home/select as well as 3D and volume sliders, perhaps larger screens if they make an "XL" version, etc.

No sir, it did not.

Unless you kinda count the Vita as a PSP playing device, then no.

The only reason I bring up the second stick revision is that Nintendo has produced it, so they must have seen a need for it. I guess they will wait and see how it goes with MonHun etc... and how the Vita does. They have plenty of time.

I think a future version of Vita could include a 3D screen. No reason why it shouldn't, although you couldn't use the touch screen features with a game displaying in 3D. That's the trade off.
