Can you believe the Nintendo 3DS was released 8 years ago in 2011? I don’t like calling a game system ‘dead,’ because I feel a game console in only dead if you don’t play it. But the 3DS is certainly at the end of its retail life cycle, as Nintendo isn’t making any more games for it, focusing solely on the Switch now. So when a game console or handheld reaches that point in its life, I like to write a blog or two highlighting the best games for it (or at least the ones I really liked). So here are some blogs about the best games on the 3DS! There were SO many that I had to split it into two parts. The first part we’re going to go over my favorite downloadable games, along with some other features of the 3DS I really liked.
Nintendo... how could you? I thought what we had was special. Now you are off and flaunting your dastardly decisions in our faces. The gall! All bad sarcasm and jokes aside though... I'll miss miiverse.
So my computer conked out on me after 5 to 6 years of service. I guess that’s pretty good, but I do wish they’d last longer, especially considering how much you pay for them. So now I’m writing this blog on my new computer, getting all used to Windows 10 and new programs and such. You know how it goes. Hopefully this one will last me a long time, too. Anyway, I got a new batch of reviews I’ve written recently over at GamerDad.com. Please click on the links below and read my reviews and maybe even post a comment or two here or there if you can. I’d really appreciate it. You’ll understand why I titled this blog “Bouncy Ninja” in a moment.
I got my Club Nintendo item, a 3DS cart holder, recently. I think it was about three months to get here, but that's ok. It's pretty cool, but now that I think of it, I don't have much use for it yet because I've bought all my 3DS games on day one, or in the case, so I don't have any loose carts for it yet. I'm sure though, when I start picking up used games, that the loose carts will come, and now I have somewhere to put them. It's the size of a regular 3DS game case, so it'll fit nicely with my other games. Pic below:
Well good morning Pixlbit, how are you on this fine Monday morning? Currently it’s a bit breezy here in Southern California, and we have below normal temperatures, which is always a good thing. I mentioned to a friend how funny it is that in December we are wearing sweaters, and complaining about how cold it is outside, but the same temp in May, and we are roaming about in shorts and a t-shirt. I walked outside earlier this morning in basketball shorts, and a basketball jersey and wasn’t cold. Anyways I shook off that pesky weekend cold that hit me on Thursday and all the bad parts of it hit around Friday. By Sunday the only thing I could complain about was that I couldn’t breathe out of my nose. I passed the time playing a bunch of tablet games, and when I was feeling better I threw in a couple of console games.
So anyways I want to start this blog by congratulating Captain N for being chosen at random for my Club Nintendo giveaway prize. Enjoy your game! Thanks to everyone who participated! As in other news we have the sad conclusion of Kojima's departure from Silent Hills. Del Toro is gone, Norman Reddus is gone, and it is likely to be cancelled..or probably is. Konami stated they would try to continue without Kojima on board and now it appears as if they'll need to go back to the drawing board all together.
So last year I achieved Gold status and since none of the games interested me I gave someone a gift. So this year I'll do the same. I achieved gold status yet again, and once more the prizes don't very much interest me. I thought maybe Wario Ware or Superstar Saga, but I already have those. So here is a break down.
Good morning Pixlbit, how is your Monday? So far in Sunny SoCal it is a cool 63 degrees on this breezy start to the week. I think this is the first full week in April so it is time to take a look at what I did in March, as well as what I’ve been playing this past week. Sound fun? Good let’s get this party started!
Pixlbit Nation how are you doing on this Friday Morning? By the time you read this I will most likely be sitting in a movie theater watching the next installment of the Fast and the Furious Franchise*. Here’s to hoping a giant plane is dragging a bunch of cars that are dragging safes, while inside the plane there is a full on wrestling match going on. Why do I love this series? Its so over the top that it is freaking awesome. I mean the first one was an actual movie about street racing, and then it just goes nuts from there. This is the perfect popcorn flick. Anyways it is Friday, which means another Quick Hits With Chris. Today we shall be talking about Wrestlemania, along with other TV Shows I’ve been watching, and what’s going on with photography. Of course it wouldn’t be Friday without seeing what Fake Lego Lady had in stock at the Swapmeet, so sit back and get ready to shift at least a hundred times and live your life a quarter mile at a time!
So in the time between the last blog and this one I've managed to get my hands on Majora's Mask 3D and beat it. There's still a bunch of stuff I haven't done that I'll get to later, but right now I'm going back to playing some 3DS Smash and waiting patiently (ha) for the email confirmation for the CD offer from Club Nintendo. Also wondering how that Mewtwo offer is gonna work, hope I can give it to my bro as well without much of a hassle.
Hey Pixlbit. Sorry I've been kinda MIA. I figure everybody's got their hands full keeping up with BaD. I've also been trying to be more productive lately. By more productive I mean being a lazy bastard, watching a ton of Fist of the North Star and random movies on Netflix, and don't forget about playing some damn games.
Happy Thursday good people of the Pixlbit Empire, how are you doing? For some odd reason my body decided to wake up at 4:50am earlier this morning for now reason. When I decided to browse the Internets on the iPad the Internet was down and wasn’t running up until maybe 20 minutes ago when I reset the FiOS router. Everything is now good and I can continue to take part in Blog A Day. For today’s entry I’ve decided to take a small break in all the Playstation love and not show my original Playstation games and instead hold that for next week which I am calling BaDBonuses because I still have a couple of consoles I have yet to talk about.
Happy Friday Pixlbit! Another week is almost in the books and I am ready to hit the local music store this weekend (unless I get sidetracked by a nap.) So how has this week treated you good folks? Anything fun planned this weekend? I am currently trying to read through a bunch of blogs you good folks have posted so if my comments are a wee bit late, sorry. Anyways since it is Friday it is my favorite blog of the week, Quick Hits. Yes I watched a bunch of shows, bought some stuff, and other fun randoms. Let’s get started!

After Nintendo annoucened that it was shutting down their Club Nintendo Rewards system; they decided to actually put out a decent amount of quality games. However there are only two game that I'm really interested in as named in the title of this blog. Lately, I've been wanting to play Star Fox 64 again but everytime I would go into a store, I would keep forgetting to pick it up. As the retail version is probably cheaper than what it is right now on the E-Shop.
