Thanks for the review Kris. I gave my 3DS's out to my grand kids over the weekend. The 3DS should give most people and families at least a shot at enjoying 3D games. 3D gaming at $250= more people 3D gaming overall. Agian thanks for your article Kris.

cheers everyone

Yeah, this game is really cool. If you have a 3DS you owe it to yourself to pick up the title. SF4 is also a must-have.
