Are They Gone Yet? - Lance Icarus

Ahh, phew, okay. Looks like they've gone for now. With this brief window, lets talk video games.

The 3DS is definitely getting a pre-order from me. Yes, it's pretty gimmicky, but what is video games other than a series of gimmicks and trends we follow? Hopefully Nintendo has learned from it's past mistakes in 3D. I'm still getting migranes just thinking about that thing. Luckily the 3DS has the advantage of Kid Icarus: Uprising as a launch title. If you're not reserving that game with a 3DS preorder, then I have no idea why you're getting the thing.

It's groanworthy to see the Kinect and the Move because you know exactly why they're doing it, but you can't blame them either. Nintendo has had that "casual" motion control market share and it's only natural to want a piece of that delicious pie. It probably tastes like cherry or apple. OH! Maybe it tastes like THE COUGARS ARE BACK! AAAAAAAAAHHH!

RAAAWR!
