That will probably come into the May Update. I doubt though that 3DS will be capable for for an Adobe Flash Update, seeing that there is not really a mobile version specifically for the occasion.

Super Street Fighter dudette, it's proven the best game for 3DS so far.

Depends on what you're looking for, if you're looking for something that really shows off the 3d effect go Pilotwings. If you're looking for a solid fighter go for Street Fighter 4. I'm getting both because I loved Pilotwings 64 and I love Street Fighter
Ok I will look up info for the games thanks

If it's a port, it's not that exciting?
Yeah, also the graphics have been improved (new textures and models), and the touchscreen will be used for the menu. But otherwise, it's the same game. (still gonna get it though)
I am soooooo glad that they remade the face graphics on the character models! The originals were just plain terrible! Of course not for their time but for ours now. Can't wait to get it when it comes out.
Getting the cosmo black with Samurai Warriors Chronicles! I can't wait, I've been counting down the day. Is anyone else going to the midnight thing at gamestop?
Tried this out earlier tonight at the 3DS Preview Event in Toronto. As I expected, the 3D effect was nothing mindblowing–it was actually a distraction for a few of the games in my opinion when you're trying to find the "sweet spot"–but for some of the games it adds a nice subtle depth to the image. In the end though, it's just a gimmick; I don't play the games to look at special effects. The 3D isn't a horrible thing for all games, but it seems kind of silly how much it is being pushed, and how much they're charging for the hardware itself because of that.

The Demo isn't excellent, BeyCenter and I decided to go to the Midnight Release at Gamestop and the Clerk Manager guy actually let us "Hold" it. It looks awesome! It doesn't look as 3D as it was advertised and I see where your coming from. We are going back to Gamestop within MINUTES, so get ready to see the FIRST UNBOXING OF USA ON YOUTUBE! Also, the guy was nice enough to give us full receipts to cut the line! And, he let us buy the case even before midnight, it was not supposed to happen at all, but he was nice enough. The coolest thing was that he actually let us use the FULL version, not those demo ones... so again, I'll post my full review here.
can't expect much from release titles now a days. just wait til developers really start exploiting the 3d effects to the fullest. just think back to the release of the original DS. nothing really special or any games that fully utilized the potential of the touch screen or dual screen. now we have games that are innovative and fun to play!
for right now, 3d is just a nice bonus in games. but seriously all the software that come with the 3ds already. some of them look really fun.
I also went to same preview event as Kei, and I echo his feelings. I wasn't exactly blown away by the 3D, and it actually gave me a small headache. The most impressive use of it from the games I played was Super Street Fighter IV, but even then, I didn't feel like I was actually gaining anything important from that via just playing it in 2D.
I guess it's due to the disconnect of using a handheld compared to the 3D on a console, but I felt more immersed in the glasses 3D. I played a few PS3 games in 3D and annoyingly expensive glasses aside, I actually felt a lot more "in" the game than what I played there. It's a bit hard to explain, but I'd compare 3D on the PS3 as 3D in your face, where as 3DS is looking into a window 3D.
Got my 3ds at 12:20, but decided post about it now. In the end, I ended up getting street fighter, and it is amazing. I had street fighter on the ps3, but I like this version so much more. I also agree with what the past posters have said about the 3d. It doesn't really "pop out" as much as they made it look like it would. Maybe this just because these are the first games which might be like a test run for developers. I hope the 3d feature is developed upon in the future, as it is a great concept, but could have been implemented more.
I asked Nintendo if they would give me a 3DS via Twitter.
We got the 3DS at 11:58, SATURDAY....
It's amazing, I'll post a full review with BeyCenter, since he is the one who made this all possible. So, I did get SS4, with the Official 3DS Starter Kit.
I just picked it up and it's brilliant, only complaint is there is only one really nice color from launch and now everyone has the same color.
just picked up my black 3ds, didn't buy any games though. aha
planning to just continue playing pokemon and play the AR card games. :p
Going to Target to get Samurai Warriors Chronicles, since they didn't have it at my gamestop last night. My friend code is 2148-8140-4038. Street fighter anyone?
lol im not geting mine till easter our something but when i get street fighter prepare i know how to play a little juri.
Im going to pick up my copy I pre-ordered in a few minutes. Hopefully I will be able to get two games!
Well, for some reason, my Unboxing video made at 12:03, 3 mins after release, didn't upload. I know that it was the 1st EVER Unboxing of the U.S. version, but for some reason the computer died on me.S basically it is the firs unboxing ever of the U.S. Version, but wasn't uploaded. So anyways, the 3DS is not looking through a window, it's real 3D. I just wish though that t was more of a screen popper. 8/10 for now I give it.
Man there was at least 100 people at the Gamestop closest to me...
Actually they started 2 Mins early for he release.
If you went to Midnight Release, you get a free Magazine...
Yeah, the 3D is pretty sweet! I can't believe GameStop didn't take my DS Lite, it works perfectly fine >
Jeez loiuse. How long does this thing take to charge? Im giving it a full charge before i fire it up.

It takes 3 hours. Plus, when I got mine, it had like half charge straight out of the box.
im gonna wait till the ngp comes out then get the 3ds hopefully it will be cheaper
It takes a while because the 3D takes a lot of battery life. Meaning it needs a bigger battery. Or that's what I think...
