Was wondering if the the Nintendo 3DS due to price drops is now worth it? (even though it was worth it before the drop) because I have been wanting to get one for a long time but never had the money.

Hey everyone
You kinda answered your own question there. Yes it is worth it. There are a good amount of games coming out in the next few months, which is the main reason the 3DS "wasn't worth it" before.
I just got one recently b/c of the price drop and I think it's worth it somewhat. Wish I had more games though(the e-shop does have some nice games though). You should probably wait a bit for some better games to come out but in the end it's your choice.
-Everything you could get on DSi
-GB and GBC games
-Some 3D games, including some NES games in 3d (theres a free pokedex 3D ap)
-if you have a DSi you can transfer your games over
-Theres a Nintendo Video service which will let you view 3D videos on your 3DS (4 on your system at a time)
-You can download some trailers for upcoming games
- Netflix
Oh and Zelda Four Swords is going to be downloadable for free in September.
Is it worth it?
Doesn't nintendo only have 4 major titles? Pokémon, zelda, mario and metroid prime? Which are always the same game with a different skin, look, pokémon etc.
If you enjoy these games multiple times over then yes, it's very worth it. Also it's a new thing so expect lots of decent titles to hit it.
Also, re-reading this it sounded negative. I got one the, and I'm being super serious, minute it came out. and i've loved it since.
With BlazBlue, Cave Story, Shin Megami Tensei, Kingdom Hearts and Tales of the Abyss (and the mentioned Kid Icarus and Starfox) I think it could be a really nice chrismas present for myself. ^^
For now there is just Zelda (atleast for me) so I'll wait and play my old games instead.

Maybe when they finally release decent games for the 3DS it will be worth it, but right now the system is a total joke. The only great game for it is Ocarina and if you want to play Ocarina why wouldn't you bust out a 64 and play it on a huge tv screen instead of struggling to see it in the much, much smaller 3d screen of the 3DS?

It's worth it just based off of the new Kingdom Hearts game coming out for it.
I got mine for free, delivery driver left it on the doorstep without a signature. I didn't receive it and cancelled my order in protest. I would deffo say it's worth it just for all the awesome titles they are remaking specifically for the 3ds, some great games for when your out and about.
i saw some kinda shooting game for 3ds not to long ago looked like BF:BC with a diff name
Are the pokemon, megaman, super mario bro, sonic, metroid and zelda games on the nintendo market? If I were to buy a DS, it'd be for all of those.

I'm hoping it'll go down in price one more time and then I want it.
I'm so excited to play some new Nintendo games. I'd rather play them on the Wii (Wii U actually), but well... what can you do? I don't think we'll be able to pirate 3DS games. Or maybe we will, no idea.
Before people get butthurt, I had a DS of my own that I paid for, and paid a lot of games for it. The DS was then old, and broken, and I got the games on my computer so I could still play them.
