You're Killing Me, Nintendo!

[pixelzomblina]

I've always been a Nintendo fan more than anything else, even despite owning all other systems and loving them greatly. However, Nintendo is really good at giving me gray hairs. D: They always come out with something absolutely wild, and sometimes they don't end up that bad. But I'm having so many doubts about this Expansion Slide Pad! Especially with the rumors claiming that a new exclusive 3DS will be revealed having the extra analog.

I recently got my issue of Game Informer and starting reading the news about how the 3DS is doing. I bought it brand new, and this price cut was such a heavy crush to my heart. What sounded even worse to me was that "the move sparked a drop in the company's stock price, a pay cut for Nintendo president and CEO Satoru Iwata and other executives..." All I can say is: Wow. I regret selling my DSi XL. Sure I own Ocarina of Time and who knows if Majora's Mask will ever go through (I even signed the petition), but I'm at the point of selling this cursed thing! I miss the little features that the DSi had that the 3DS got rid of! :/

As it says in the article, wasn't the fact that this new handheld played in 3D suppose to be the selling point? And if they really sell this rumored 3DS, will the price remain the same or just go back up to original pricing it started with? I mean, sure there's some great games coming out, but why aren't there some out even now? I mean, I waited FOREVER for Twilight Princess to come out on Gamecube: from when they announced it in High School til it's release during my college years ALONGSIDE the debut for the Wii. Great, now I had to get a new system too (good thing it played my GC games). Now how long has the Wii been out for this next Zelda installment? I wouldn't be surprised if it comes out WITH the Wii U as well!

Sorry, I'm just on a rant here. Nintendo you're breaking my heart. I have more to say, but I think I'll shut up now. ;3
