They need to start bringing some actual games out to play on it and I might start getting more inerested. Nice surprise though for the people that forked out for one at launch.

They also confirmed Super Mario Bros. 3D Land (bit of a terrible name but I dig for them sticking with the land name) and Mario Kart are going to be this year which should help the 3DS a lot.

Mario Kart was the point the DS finally became worth it for me, but then the DS didn't have Resident Evil The Mercenaries 3D.

edit: and now I get 2 Mario Karts! And Yoshi's Island.

Some good free games there, and yeah, 3DS needed its big 1st party games out sooner to be more successful, along with the lower price point.

I'm not too fussed, mind. I'll happily take the free games being offered, especially as they'll no doubt be worth £6-10 seperately thanks to Nintendo's rather iffy pricing structure on eShop games.

I'm excited to see what the other 10 games are an if they're as awesome as the ones already announced. What's even better is that I'm not even bothered about the 3DSs price since I only paid £150 for it :3

Super Mario 3D Land might have worked much nicer.

*looks at top of page* Oh, it is. Well then, is it still worth it (not counting the
free stuff) in your mind?
