@thaKEAF, @TheGodling and @Young Bishop I noticed that sometimes I experience some ghosting while playing games (OOT and Super Mario 3d land). I don't know if I remember that with my old 3DS. It's like everything is normal 3d, but Navi or a window is doubled. Are you seeing this too? Is this normal behavior, or is my system just fukked up? It's weird cuz it's not the whole screen, it's just specific objects. No amount of moving the screen or my head can fix the object from "doubling." Other times everything is fine. I can't tell if it's just a side-effect of the 3d or if something else is up
Well, I just did a search and the "ghosting" was apparently a problem with the old 3ds xl too. Maybe I just didn't notice it before. Now that I see it, I can't stop seeing it though :mjcry:

Everybody is seeing it in OOT too. So, I guess my system is fine. I dunno...

Yeah, apparently it's bad in the games I was playing. Glad it's not just my system. I thought shyt was broken. Let me know if you see it though. I got a month to return it to gamestop and get a new one if my shyt really is fukked up. The ghosting is distracting as hell though. I don't know why I never noticed it on my old 3ds

The battery life on the new 3ds xl is about an hour better. I got to 4.5 hours with wifi on, full brightness, full 3d, etc. before I got to one bar. It was about 3.5 hours on my old system.

That's ridiculous, I just checked on Amazon.co.uk and the game is regularly priced there. Seems North America is fukked up.

But Kid Icarus is the best game the 3DS has to offer IMO, I got 100+ hours into that game and back when I played it heavily I was beasting online.

Man, I wanna play the game, but I'm not paying $95 for it. Nintendo NA always does this shyt; puts really good games out of print too early. I still can't believe Zelda: OOT is out of print. Of all games, they put that one out of print? :wtf:

Would you pay $60 for a game that lasts twelve hours? You probably do all the time. $100 is still ridiculous but KI:U is worth every penny you'll spend on it.

True. I just paid $48 for The Order, and that lasts only 5 hours :dead: Still, $100 is hard to swallow for a 3ds game. Might pull the trigger later though

Nah I haven't notice anything like that. Majora's Mask is the only game I have for now. I will let you know Cig if it happens to me. Also bruh you didn't get the 20 dollar one year insurance at GameStop?

Nah, I didn't get the insurance. I looked into the issue more. Apparently it's real common with OOT and those older 3ds games. I think my shyt is fine.

Others with the new 3ds were talking about how the ghosting was still there for them too with OOT.

I only saw it once with super Mario 3d land, but apparently it's common there too (another older game).

I'm not as worried anymore.
