I only use to read them on the bus home after buying them. Once I got the game and could play it I didn't really care for them.
Gaming Nintendo 3DS vs PS Vita thread.

I've always been one of those people that jump into a game and press buttons to see what happens. I barely read the manuals unless there are some technical special moves like streetfighter or bayonetta.
Most modern games waste the first hour with a tutorial aspect built into the game anyway.
Yeah, those were the days!
But they can be great reads at times, but it's more that it's another thing lost. All digital is going to suck
All digital wont happen, I'm not going to accept it
That was part of the experience....
Why not? Your sex life is all digital.All digital wont happen, I'm not going to accept it
Sorry, I love you.
Harsh but fair.I'm not against digital for some stuff. For music, films and TV I'm perfectly fine with it, but for games I'm just not going to have it. I will never ever buy a digital game
Burn!
Really enjoying the 3DS. I've completed the first dungeon on Majoras Mask. Didn't have much time left after that dungeon though which fecked it up a bit for me really as I rushed it a bit but I got it done. 
Takes a bit of getting used to with the time limit but I've got my head around how to play it now with a certain song. Do you guys usually play with the 3D or not. I can't make my mind up if I like it or not but after a while my eyes go weird so I turn it off . I've got Super Mario bros 3 to remind me of the good old days and Donkey Kong 3D as well which seems really good so far although have played less of those.

I'm getting Super Street Fighter IV and Rooms, The Main Building Game as I already had Dead Or Alive and Professor Layton Miracle Mask.
Streetfighter on handheld didnt do it for me. But it was a good effort for the 3ds
Surprised how many of you are getting the new 3ds if I'm honest.
Need.
Feck me
I might well get the new 3DS, could give my sister my 3DSXL and be king big dick for a while.
be king big dick around your sister? ok.
I'll take being king big dick in anyway I can to be honest.
That 3DS plate is gorgeous.
I always have 3D on. Though I do have it at 50-75% usually depending on the game. As usual the Nintendo games are the ones that use the feature better, 3D land, Ocarina and especially Majora's are outstanding with it.Really enjoying the 3DS.

I considered it but then changed my mind. It doesnt get much use in my household
New 3DS is here, but charging.
Think I need a screwdriver to switch SD cards, annoying. Not sure about this nub, though the other new buttons seem great, will have to see in proper action.
Can't decide whether to transfer and make this my "main" DS, or stick with my 3DS XL for that and use this for portability and more 3D involved games.

Early impressions are good.
I don't know if it's possible(but I highly doubt it), but I'd love the ZL/R buttons to be usable/programmable for most games.
The nub is decent and useful, but nowhere near as handy as a proper 2nd stick like the Vita(oddly, when the Dual Shock first came out, I fecking hated it and the sticks, took me a long time to get on with them, now I almost couldn't do without).
I thought the screw access for the sd card would be annoying, but it was quick, I guess it would be more annoying if I didn't have like a bazillion screwdrivers within easy access.
The 3D is a massive improvement, didn't much like it on the regular 3DS.
The auto-brightness is annoying as feck, thankfully easily disabled.
Not too far into Majoras Mask, but so far looking like an incredible game(despite the short time, I'm fairly sure I'll like it more than Ocarina of Time). Definitely the prettiest game I have seen with the 3D. The time limit did annoy me a bit, at first, I'm getting used to it though, I like that they'll let you know what you'll loose by jumping back before you confirm it. Seems like it's a game I should slowly worm my way through, picking subquests and such, making many runs at the 3 days, rather than bombing through at any pace.

What's the auto-brightness? It adjusts depending on how much light is in the room you're in?
In theory yes. In practice it just flicks between bright and dark every 3 minutes.
Sounds good.Have you used it enough to know if the battery life is better?
Not really, tbh, but it's still showing full bars.
Ah, well that sounds promising anyway.
Can anyone remember in Majoras Mask if there are any masks that you can no longer get if you complete a certain part. I just don't wanna miss any!
I'm pretty sure no masks are missable.
This nub makes me want to re-try Monster Hunter 3.
I wish I had the nub I cant even get a circle pad ffs. Bloody 2ds. It's great otherwise too.
Yeah it's been a while, but I don't believe there's anything missable. The game certainly gives the impression there are though early on
I had one stupid moment in it so far.
That shitc**t monkey in the Deku Palace told me the magic bean salesman was in the "outer gardens", where as the two gardens are signposted as "inner gardens".
Spent 10 minutes trying to find another garden.

Just put in my new memory card (64GB). 477k blocks free
Nice. I've got 10 free blocks
Just started ALBW (by "just" I mean last night and have done the first dungeon). Enjoyable so far but agree about it being watered down a bit too much and seems too easy. Still, it is an excellent game though.
Yep. I think the dungeon design is a bit weak, mostly due to being able to get all weapons at once. Plus rupees are way too frequent.
Hopefully they've tightened it up for the Wii-U Zelda.
