Congrats on the N3DS. I was considering getting one but got an XB1 instead. Wanna see what Nintendo has planned with the thing before I take the plunge.
Mystery Gifts: Birthday Edition

Leveling up has its perks...
Howdy everyone, hope you've been well. Thanks again for the birthday wishes, I really appreciate it. I got some stuff for my bday and I thought it was about time I post another edition of mystery gifts. I've meant to post this earlier but I got a bit sidetracked with what I got. Anyway, here's the stuff I got:
I got an eShop card from my bros and a New 3DS XL! I never expected to get a new 3DS, let alone the N3DSXL but I got one now. Not sure what to spend the eShop card on, I've been thinking on spending it on all the Hyrule Warriors dlc, or wait till Nintendo puts up Metroid: Zero Mission up on the eShop. Hopefully they do put it up because I really want to try it.
Before I opened it up, I had to delete alot of my downloadable games since most of them didn't fit on the 4gb card that the XL comes with. It also took a long time that I had to leave it transfering my data overnight. There's 3 ways of transfering your stuff, one is wireless, the other is transfering all your stuff, but it'll take longer, and a lite transfer that transfer your info like NNID, eShop purchases and more, but your games would be deleted, but you could download them back afterwards and will allow you to recover your savefiles. I chose that one, it took less time but by the time it was at 20%, I was sleepy so I left it overnight, just had to make sure I plugged the recharger on both.
I also gave myself a promotion and decided to get myself this:
I got it because I loved it so much on the Wii, and I was a bit worried it might get scalpped and become rare. I know it's available in more places now, but you never know. I guess it's a birthday gift from me to me. As for first thoughts on it, the first thing people are complaining about it, is the textures. It doesn't bother me, all I care about is that I don't need a tv to play this now. As whether you should get this or not, if you have a Wii, then get that one. If you have a New 3DS, then this one is for you. Wii's are cheap now, a Wii mini is around 100 bucks, and a used copy of Xenoblade is around 40 bucks on Gamestop. That's around 140 bucks. On the New 3DS, since there isn't a smaller model, you're going to need to pay up 200 for the XL and an extra 40 for Xenoblade 3D. I guess it really winds down on your budget.
I also got Animal Crossing New Leaf as my Club Nintendo platinum reward. I skipped the one on the Wii but I'm having fun with this one. I think I got my mayor's permit now and had payed my 4th loan to that loan shark I mean Tom Nook.
I also started rewatching the original Pokemon anime and it's a nostalgic trip. I also decided to open my Sailor Moon dvd and watch some episodes despite already watching the first dubbed episodes on Hulu. Not sure why, but I just love this anime. I loved it as a kid and still do. Same with Pokemon.
Well that's everything for now. I will have an impressions post on the New 3DS XL soon-ish. Thanks for reading, later, and May the 4th be with You/Happy Cinco de Mayo.
