- Madden NFL
- Super Street Fighter IV 3D

Also, Pilotwings.
Actually that is a sweet launch line-up
That's a pretty nice selection of launch titles there. WTF is Steeldiver?
At least the $250 US cost gives me hope for a £200 or less price point over here. A penny more and I'm not biting.
Nintendogs+Cats--Hell ill buy it
Steeldiver--?? What is it
Dead or Alive--meh.
Pro Evolution Soccer--lol sportz.
Madden NFL--lol sportz
SSF43D--FAP FAP FAP FAP
Asphalt 3D--racing. Meh.
Dinosaurs--we need more dinosaur games :(
Ridge Racer 3D--RIIIIIIIDGE RAAAACER!
Resident Evil: Mercs--FAP FAP FAP FAP
Lego SW III--wait, will this have online co-op?
Pilotwings Resort
DoA (for lulz)
Decent enough launch for me. Also gives me room to borrow a DS from a friend so I can transfer Pokemon from SS to Black/White and put my DSi toward the 3DS
I was hoping Ocarina of Time would be a launch title, it seems fitting that it would considering that Nintendo had Super Mario 64 DS ready at the launch of the original DS.
As for the launch list - enh. I thought it would be a lot more, and at this point, all I'm getting is RE. However, a few months in, there will be like 50 more titles, so I'm not worried :D
Nintendogs + Cats - Meh.
Steeldiver - Huh? They made that sub demo from the first DS into a game?
Dead or Alive - lol no.
Pro Evo - I'm not European.
Madden NFL - FOOTBALL! No.
Street Fighter - I'd rather play it on my 360 with my rather expensive TE fightsticks.
Asphalt 3D - Meh.
Combat of Giants - Eh.
Ridge Racer - Who really cares about Ridge Racer?
Resident Evil: The Mercenaries - Not worth buying as its own game.
Lego Star Wars III - If anything, I'd get a console version.
It's a decent line-up, but I don't see anything that really screams to me to buy a system right away. I'll be holding off until more games come out.
Still, there is Pilotwings and SSIV3D. Those should tide move.
There's not even nothing making me pick this up at launch, there's nothing I'd pick up for $10 at launch. Volume does not make up for a lack of a killer app, and Resident Evil: Super Walkaround Edition is the closest thing to that here.
.....But in all seriousness, Street Fighter launch title is awesome.
AND NO WHITE 3DS? Why, Nintendo? Why?
Heh, looks like I might just be playing on the Mii channel for a couple of months. >_>
Maybe a review will convince me to get one of these launch titles.
I was hoping either Ocarina of Time, starfox, or paper mario was going to be available at launch. I hope we don't have to wait long for good games
Fuck yes Nintendo 3DS
**foaming from the mouth**
That and PilotWings are going to be my first two titles.
I probably won't have enough money to purchase the thing until my birthday in June, so I'm kind of glad I lack interest in any of the launch titles and that lots more will be available by then.
