Though it springs to mind that the screen may be a tad small for wordy games like that.

I wanna pick up a Micro sometime. I've got all the other GBAs so it'd be nice to add that one. I'd love the Mother 3 edition but they go for over £300 
If ever I'm rich Olly, and one day I will be, I will have Adriana Lima hand you over a signed one.
Jesus, 300 bucks is a bit insane.
A Victoria's Secret model and I'd pay more attention to the Gameboy
Yep. It seems most video game related things I want are really expensive
Yeah, used videogame stuff can get mad. I still want a copy of Suikoden 2 someday, even though I finished it multiple times via.... methods.
Looking at the micro on Youtube, even games like Pokemon seem clearly readable.

Yeah the screen is awesome.

I'd be all kinds of all over that neon pinky purple one, though the green one makes a strong case for itself.
Don't know if it's the same pink one you're on about but I've seen an online store that has an unboxed pre-owned one for £14.99.
How the hell? Used but decent condition ones are like £70 on Amazon.
It's got a few light marks, but yeah it's still a good price. I'll PM it to you incase you decide you want it
Cheers mate! That is indeed the pink I was on about too.
Animal Crossing arrived
I put a flower in my hair and I don't know how to remove it
Go to your items and hit the icon in the middle ("you") - one of those options lets you remove it.
Thanks
Don't though, it's gorgeous.
I've just got animal crossing. I want my money back from you lot if its shit!
It's not. It'll have you bewildered at the brilliance of it's mundaneness.
I want it...but I imagine I'll be waiting a little while before the 3DS gets emulated. Surely can't be any more than a year before a group of internet heroes does this, right?

It's a great game for the same reason why The Sims is a successful series - how can something as muindane as "life" be so entertaining?
It starts off too slowly, though.
Quick hints:
- At random, one of the rocks in your town contains a gem when hit with your shovel, and one contains multiple coins if you hit it frequently enough (kind of like those repeated coin blocks in Mario - the quicker you hit it, the more coins you get). You should dig a hole behind you before you hit it:
Then you can repeatedly bash the rock to get money without the recoil getting in the way. You get 8 money hits this way.
- Don't sell your fruit initially - plant it and let it grow
- You can stack fruit! Up to 9.

Should have got it while I was at the shops today.
Did get Yu-Gi-Oh 2009 though for a few bucks, haven't played one in years, still a fun game.

The first rock I tried after reading this had four coins in it
EDIT: Actually 11 in total.
And now a ruby
is anyone here over 20 going to buy the new Pokemon game? just making sure I'm not so weird for loving Pokemon.
I'm 24 and continue to enjoy them, so I'll be getting X or Y when they come out
Mid 20's and buying Pokemon x/y crew checking in
Finally getting a 3DS today!
Im getting Mario Kart 7, Mario 3D Land and Resident Evil for sure but im stuck between getting Monster Hunter, Fire Emblem or Kid Icarus!. I know Fire Emblem gets great reviews (and looks fantastic) but Monster Hunter looks like my sort of game, doing quests and hunting monsters while farming for gear I can see myself playing it for hours.
Anybody who's played Monster Hunter before can recommend the game or shall I just go with Fire Emblem? Also I know Animal Crossing is decent but none of my friends have a 3DS so is it still worth getting without much options of multi player?

You can play multiplayer for Animal Crossing even without your friends. Just need to exchange friend codes and you'll be able to invite people over to your village or visit others.
Can't say much about Monster Hunter as I've not played it, but Fire Emblemn is brilliant.
Decided to get Animal Crossing, Monster Hunter 3 and Fire Emblem. I'll also get Luigi's Mansion for free from the promotion they are running. These 4 will keep me busy but they have a great library now I still want about 6-7 other top games it really is an impressive little console.
You can repeat that every day, by the way... Easy money, especially early-on.The first rock I tried after reading this had four coins in it
EDIT: Actually 11 in total.
Cool, I'll be sure to continue hitting the rocks
I succumbed and bought Animal Crossing as well, so I'll be bothering you all in the next few days for your friend codes so that I can snoop around your towns

27, not buying X or Y.
Probably end up with both.
Fire Emblem is immense, one of the best games I've played in years.
I tried the Monster Hunter demo, didn't get on with it, I'm possibly too violent for it though, usually running in all guns blazing.
I got my first prize from a fortune cookie ticket. A kart from Mario Kart. Is it just decoration for my house or can I do something else with it?
Most of these things are just decorations, barring storage (i.e. fridges).
I'm going to try this tomorrow: http://www.gamefaqs.com/boards/997811-animal-crossing-new-leaf/66433408
That sounds good, I haven't unlocked the island so I'll have to wait
What are the 4 rooms in the museum? You have bugs, fish, fossils, and the other one?
Paintings. Someone will come by with a tent eventually and he will sell paintings - one a day. Unfortunately, it might be fake - but the museum takes the legitimate ones.
You might also get paintings from other villagers and Nookling Junction, although I haven't personally got any yet. I say "might" because you get weird stuff from villagers - I got my first bamboo shoot from one of them and that's meant to be really rare and difficult to obtain in a normal way...
Decorations!
If you like, this game isn't a very deep game. It's a game that you play for about 30 minutes every now and then (unless you are island farming for bells, which can take hours). It's mundane, but charming. It's about decorating your town and house - kind of like The Sims or Sim City (the good ones), in a way - utterly pointless, but adorable.
Or, in another way, it shouldn't be your only 3DS game. I don't think it's the best 3DS game out there, but it's one you don't play for hours and hours, days and days - this game will burn you out quickly if you try that (in fact, barring island farming, it's almost deliberate that you run out of things to do in an hour or so in the game - I think this is intentional).
