Every other DS has allowed you to. You don't have to put it on the cradle either - you can just use the cord.

Very uncertain. Probably not SFIV as I've never really got into the franchise and I know Adam will review it. Maybe just something like Professor Layton or whatever? Dunno. Maybe nothing.

Nothing could be a good choice. Only Japan is getting Layton, unfortunately. Honestly, it seems like the Ghost Recon games are the best choices if you're not after Street Fighter.

Yeah definitely. That's pretty much why they include that special dock? Let's you basically leave it on the charger and play it at your desk, if you like. Most games that'd work fine.

Well, at least you have one. I'm still waiting on mine. It should definitely arrive tomorrow though, as it reached NSW earlier today. How many people here have got one now?

Mine apparently still hasn't left singapore! It's been there all day! Hopefully the tracker just hasn't been updated or something.

Yeah, you'd hope that it would have travelled further than that by now. Hopefully it's just lazy updating on their part.

I'm pleasantly surprised at how much depth there is to FaceRaiders, the Mii Plaza Quest etc. Incentive to keep returning, that's for sure!

Definitely. Face Raiders is genius, and the Mii Plaza games are strangely addicting. Must carry 3DS everywhere! 2funny

Anyone see this?
http://www.facebook.com/event.php?eid=206232542720913&index=1

FB event, doing a streetpass thang in the city. Might just show up and have a walk around. Cool idea though.

I've heard about a few events like that being organised. Seems like a great idea, if there's one in Melbourne then I'll definitely join in.

About a dozen people f**ked over fishpond.com.au last week as they incorrectly listed the price of the 3ds at $159 and people demanded they get it at that price.

That law is dumb.

That law is fair and needed. If you advertise something at a certain price and then try and charge something else it's false advertising. If you walked into a supermarket and it advertised bananas at $1/kilo and you got to the checkout and they say it's $12/kilo, you have a right to be upset and to take action under the Competition and Consumer Act.

Fishpond would be pissed, sure, but who made the mistake here? Fishpond. Suck it up.

If it's deliberate, sure.. If its a legitimate mistake then no.. Whiney little bitches who think they are entitled to anything because a mistake is made need a good slapping.

Obv $159 for a 3DS was a mistake. That price for a DSi would be crazy.

I disagree. It's not fair to advertise something at one price and then refuse to honour your advertising. It doesn't matter if they made a mistake - under basic contract law they offered and you accepted, and refusing to honour the deal is a breach of contract. Maybe next time they won't make a mistake. And this is coming from someone who works in retail and customer service. As bloody annoying as it is to deal with, I wouldn't dream of changing it because it offers me the protection when I'm in their circumstances.

Zen, I reckon it will be. Obviously the DS has a bigger collection of games, some of them great. That's really the only thing the 3DS lacks. Again, battery life isn't perfect. But features like street pass are really cool, and they'll get better as time goes on.

What I love about the retail store I work at is customers pick something up and put it somewhere else, and then another customer picks it up thinking it's the price that it's been left at, and complains when you tell them differently. Stupid people =D
