Nintendo 3DS - General Discussion

[Tealfox 17]

Umm i need some advice... I just noticed that a pixel on my 3DS top screen went dark. It that normal (probably not)? I mean, a pixel isn't much, but I don't want it to get any worse. Does anyone have any idea what could have caused it and how to prevent it from getting worse?

[DChiuch 5,773]

This happens with screens all the time. Not much you can do about it, however, it doesn't "spread" like you're worried about.

Problem Fixed: Get an new 3ds. Or you could just send it in too get fixed.

[Tealfox 17]

ok don't want to sound TOO over-react-y haha i just worked blood sweat n' tears to get the thing thanks for the info, i won't worry about it too much

[Rob 5,571]

Those darn pixels.

[rainbowdash64 194]

Ya it doesn't spread, and my advise would be to be overly careful with it. i've had a 3DS for months and haven't let a single living thing TOUCH IT other than myself out of extreme caution. (i'm not a jerk really, just over protective of it since i've had so many DS's break)

I think this the perfect time for you to pre-order a 3DS XL.

[XtotheV 4]

I do but only if they are good 3d graphics.

[DragonMaster 1,166]

I use it all the time, for every game except Tales of the Abyss ('cause it really doesn't even look that good in most of the game). The only time I get headaches from it is when I am playing really late at night. Actually, I get headaches more from watching 3D movies in the theater than I do playing games. After owning the thing for a year, I don't have any problems staying in the sweet spot, even with Kid Icarus (where I pretty much hold the system exclusively with my left, non-dominant, hand).

 

I love it, it gives me more immersion in games. It also creates the illusion of the screen being bigger (and actually shows more on the screen as well). I can see why some might not use it though, especially if it gives them headaches (though I've never had the problem myself).

Sometimes, like for example In KH3D I have it on during the cutscences. It hurts my eyes after a while though so most of the time I keep it off, it saves battery too.

[Tealfox 17]

What's weirder is that it's lighting up again............ strange, but yay

I guess machines do fix themselves. lol

[karasora 4]

Most of the time I leave it on. But I have to agree with most of the people here, it hurts my eyes after a bit. It helps though to put it halfway between 2D and 3D, so it's slightly 3D but not as extreme.

i would had gotten the XL but i dont have money nor a job, so i guess im stuck with waiting till Xmast for an XL.

[Kirie 3,489]

Get a new 3DS

[Rob 5,571]

Oh my.

[Arietomas 15]

I only use it for cut scenes in KH3D mainly because the screen gets blurry especially while fighting the bosses.

There's not those many good 3DS multiplayer games out there nor is there a lot.

Mario Kart 7 is one of the best but... i have Mario Kart Wii

Kid Icarus: Uprising looks very fun but.. the controls are janking and i don't have a stylus nor do i wanna buy the 3DS pro thingy

Mario tennis Open looks fun but... it's TENNIS

Kingdom Hearts is only Local which sucks and it's not like Kingdom Hearts Birth by Sleep multiplayer ._.

The only one that looks good and fun is NEW Super Mario Bros. 2! I have one question... WILL IT HAVE ONLINE CO-OP PLAY AND NOT LOCAL :DD

I would go to middle school and ask one of my friends if they bought KH 3D during summer...but KH 3D multiplayer really sucks

[Uncle Dolan 963]

NSMB2 is local-only.

[SquareSora 133]

i think the new Super mario Bros 2 will have multiplayer from what i saw somewhere. it was like a video but i forgot. >_<

 

NSMB2 is local-only.

 

REALLY?!?! but still multiplayer though.

[Gamerazor247 877]

NSMB2 is local-only.

 

;_; guess i have to go and buy Kid Icarus or MarioKart 7 Edited August 15, 2012 by gamerazor247

[SinHeartlessAngel 555]

Heroes of ruin ;o;

[KeybladeWielder_ 161]

Kid Icarus: Uprising is the best multiplayer game I have ever played in my life. It's controls aren't "janky" they just take some getting used to. The Circle Pad Pro is completely unecessary and is harder to use than the stylus in my opinion. Also I'm left handed but play right handed and I am still able to play relatively well.

 

Mario Tennis Open is an awesome game, I enjoy it imensely. The multiplayer is awesome fun, you can play a normal 1v1 or doubles and doubles co-op. Theres also Ring Shot Versus and Ring Shot co-op. And you can play Super Mario Bros on multiplayer too. All of these modes are such fun to play with friends. Thats what I did using only download and play with a friend. Street Pass capabilities on that game are fantastic. Not even gonna start on the online multiplayer, one word: sexy.

 

And the Kingdom Hearts multiplayer isn't bad. It is wicked fun. Getting portals off of friends and playing Flick Rush against them is very enjoyable. Theres not a greater feeling in the world than being better than your friend at Kingdom Hearts Flick Rush.

 

Just through playing the demo I would also recommend Heros of Ruin because the multiplayer, even with randoms, was very fun.

[King Riku 2,063]

Do any of you have the Rayman Origins demo downloaded onto your North American 3DS, and are able to put your SD card into your computer and copy files? Mine was randomly corrupted along with a few other things, but is the only one I wasn't able to replace, seeing as how it was taken out of the eShop. Which is where you come in! Do not worry people, I've done this with my Nintendogs+Cats Demo to assure it'll work.

Since I have downloaded the demo once before, the demo's icon remains a part of my system's memory even though it isn't visable on my menu an anymore(It is, in fact, in my favorite titles selection). As long as I can get another copy of this demo and put it back where it belongs on my SD card, I'll be able to play. This won't work unless you have downloaded the game before. I know what you hackers are thinking. Because I'm thinking it too. Awwww :'(

 

So, if anyone has all the qualifications, and are willing to take a few minutes to help, can you please send me a PM? I'll give you my instructions once you do.

 

 

If any mod feels this shouldn't be allowed, please go ahead and lock this. I honestly don't feel this harms anything, and I've seen people do it a lot on a few other sites, but I don't wish to anger anyone. Not that it should, but still.
