Thanks so much, Julie! Of course, I'd be happy to exchange friend codes with you.
Do the Nintendo consoles allow to have a friend list that transfers over to other games as well (like what we used to have for the Disney online games)? Are there any other games that allow for online multiplayer mode that you (or anyone else) would recommend?
Oh yes, I read about the face-tracking feature for the new 3DS, it will be interesting to see how well it works.
It still seems like something out of a sci-fi novel to me, haha. Remember when touch screens seemed so unbelievable at first?
I've heard of Animal Crossing before but never really considered it, but now you've intrigued me. What about Fantasy Life, is that something quite different? I also enjoy turn-based RPG games, so I think Fire Emblem: Awakening will be on my wishlist as well.
I'll probably plan my purchase(s) for the start of July (my savings are a little on the low side atm), can't wait till then.
Keep those recommendations coming!
