Hey Sava, since the 3DS can play DS games, here is something for you:

Don't get it. I have it and it's ****ing horrible. It barely functions on the DS.

I appreciate the suggestion.

Day three of 3DS.

It's awesome.

I wish my PC games were in 3D.

Told you you wouldn't regret it.

Regret is for pussies

If you're completely ignorant of video game history, this might make sense. The Legend of Zelda broke new ground. There had never been a game like that before. There were games like Ultima, but they tended to be overly serious and hard. Zelda had a huge world to explore, full of little secrets, and it was just hard enough to make it fun, without forcing you to keep track of food and ridiculous **** like that.

Zelda II was worse, but I give them credit for trying something new. They could have just made a palette swapped cash-in sequel, like the Japanese Super Mario Bros. 2, but instead they tried to show us Hyrule from a whole new dimension. Too bad it sucked. I'd rather play Faxanadu.

I think it's a generational thing. If you weren't exposed to the seismic shift from games like Pitfall and Pac-Man to The Legend of Zelda, it's harder to appreciate what it was like to see it for the first time.

This.

And also, I think stuff seems so much cooler when we are younger. We tend to look back on that stuff with rose-tinted goggles. I'm noticing it with the younger generation too. Pokemon just seems so stupid. But I understand it maybe seeming cool because one liked it as a child.

Heck, I missed out on Power Rangers by just a year or two. I was 13 and remember thinking that shit was stupid. But at 10 or 11? I maybe woulda liked it.

I say this all despite still loving the TMNT and 80's GI Joe.

Power Rangers was awesome when I was a kid. Seeing it today, I barf. TMNT is still good though. But TMNT 2003 is much better.

[Sava]

But TMNT 2003 is much better.

don't make me destroy you

Don't get me wrong, the old one is great. But the new one has a more mature feel, better character developments and stories and is closer to the original comic. The rebooted 2012 series is horrible though.

At least you have some sense.
