New things are fun!

So, last night was the launch of the Nintendo 3DS. I went to Game with my friend Mike for the midnight launch. We were entered into a raffle to win their 3DS for free, and surprisingly I won. So I got my 3DS for free as well as buying Street Fighter IV.

Mario in my hand!

So I’ve had a play on it, and yeah it’s good. It’s a shame all the internet features aren’t available yet, but then good things come to those who wait! I really enjoy playing with the Augmented Reality Cards, I’ve also gathered up some Play Coins already so I bought some bonuses on the game too. So clever how its done. I was actually surprised with the 3D. The depth slider works really well, as having it on the top setting, I feel, hurts my eyes after a while, so I’ve set mine just below the middle and its working fine. The pedometer works as good as always, today I totaled 6304 steps so that’s all good. 1000 steps is a full days worth of Play Coins so I did well there (only went to town and back!). That’s another thing, I like Street Fighter, I’ve never bought any of the games before, so this was my first and it’s got a lot of features on it, however as I got my free 3DS and had that extra £200 in the bank, I thought I’d get Nintendogs + Cats and an Accessories Pack too. Nintendogs is an excellent upgrade to the original DS, and walking around the house gathered up 63 steps which was equivalent to 6 free dog biscuits so there’s some pedometer action there. Unfortunately I haven’t met anyone on StreetPass yet, but it’s early days! Below is my QR code for my Mii if you wish to add me, and my friend code below!
