Ridge Racer 3D review from GamingBits.com

Ridge Racer 3D offers a challenging arcade racing game that doesn’t stray from its long standing formula. It does break out in exciting stereoscopic 3D for this Nintendo 3DS release. As one of the few launch 3DS games offering a first-person perspective, Ridge Racer 3D employs a nice sense of depth on the tracks. Smoke, sparks, tail lights, confetti and helicopters come at you. Multiplayer games are limited to up to four-player local versus races (no online). Ridge Racer 3D offers a fun, addictive arcade drift-racing game. It’s a sparkling showcase 3D game on the Nintendo 3DS.

Unadvertised price drops on select 3DS games at Best Buy

Great news for those of you who just got a shiny new 3DSXL and are looking to expand your 3DS library. Several 3DS games have gotten price reductions/clearanced out at Best Buy and for those of you who can get to your local store to search for the titles this evening you can still take advantage of the B2G1 sales on all 3DS games. These games were all marked at a local store, did not appear to be a manager special and required no override at the register when purchasing them. That said, as is often the case for price drops like these, prices may vary depending based on different stores. These prices will likely be IN STORE ONLY.

Nintendo 3DS Launch: Better Than We Thought

Chris Buffa (Modojo): According to many, Nintendo's March 27 3DS launch was a huge disappointment. The system was overpriced at $249.99, consumers complained the glasses free 3D gave them headaches and a lack of compelling software (the absence of Mario the biggest sticking point) gave shoppers little reason to fork over their hard-earned dough.

BETTER than we thought? No. No. There is no excuse for it. Heck, the system is still crawling uphill and it has a long way to go before it is a must-have system.

The launch week was OK...

In Japan, they'd sold out their entire allocation in the first two days. It was the most successful Nintendo console launch ever in America and the UK.

The problem was the three months after that. Those good first week sales didn't last.

They sold 4 million first quarter - but 3.5 million of that was in the first week.
