Nintendo Life: When the 3DS was launched, it didn't even have an eShop to enjoy, and even after the online store arrived the pack-in 2GB SD card seemed perfectly adequate. With a mix of Game Boy Virtual Console titles, the odd 3D Classic and the first flashes of download-only titles from third parties, the number of blocks offered up by the included storage was enough for even the most enthusiastic of early adopters.
VGChartz's Evan Norris: "Is Ocarina of Time as legendary as I remembered it? For the most part, yes. In spite of a handful of missteps — a few obtuse puzzles, some tedious backtracking, and a clunky stealth sequence — I don't believe the last 23 years have been unkind to it. Ocarina remains a brilliant example of the medium, a landmark game that shaped the future of its own franchise and 3D gaming in general. After more than two decades it retains its inventive dungeon design, challenging puzzles, dynamic combat, wistful storyline, unforgettable music, and empowering open-air freedom. I feel confident calling it one of the greatest games of the fifth generation, even if I'm no longer prepared to list it among the five best games ever made."
Pure unadulterated fun. They don't make them like this anymore...especially not the triple A industry.
Back when video rental was a thing, I rented out Majoria's Mask, I never finished it though. I did buy the 3DS version before the eshop shutdown, so maybe one day I'll finally play through the whole thing, it's amazing how well these games hold up though. I briefly played Ocarina of Time for a while and it was really fun.
Game Rant participates in the Megaton Musashi World Cup, checking out the game a little bit beforehand and winning the first round match.
After being benched for 20 years, and returning only to be forsaken again despite being a splendid game, it's time Kid Icarus gets salvation.
I think they need to announce a new redesigned 3DS at E3....3DS Lite with the second circle pad and everything
I assume they mean what gets packed into the system? Makes sense considering that game sizes are getting larger and larger. I heard Donkey Kong Country Returns 3D has a massive file size.
That said the system itself is fine. I believe a firmware update made it compatible with 128GB SD cards. I may get one if my 32GB ever runs low.
What's the big deal? Buy a bigger SD card! I mean, Nintendo went with standard SD cards, so they are really cheap.
Standard 32 gb SD cards are around $25.
Ya, the SD cards are so cheap, there really isn't an issue.
I just picked up a 3ds and was thinking of going digital until I called customer service. Your downloaded titles are tied to the system, not an account. So if you delete your game, lose your system (it happens), or want to free up space for another, you cannot download it again. You have to call them and the tech said under special circumstances, they allow you to download it again. Until Nintendo goes the route Sony/Microsoft go, I am sticking to retail hard copies.
Grim, if you delete the game it's still available for redownload from the eShop but ONLY on that system
