So with the 3DS having been out for a while in Japan a lot of people have done a lot of reviews on it. One thing that seems to stand out is that the battery seems to suck. Well that is when you compare it to the DS (you should never do that). From what I can tell most people are having problems squeezing out more than 4.5 hours before it dies. That is with the 3D OFF, the back light on SUPER LOW, and NO WIFI. With everything on I'm reading 2 hours at best.
Now with normal DS games we are looking the 5-8 hour range but that is last gen now so I don't think we should judge the 3ds on that.
So here's the question Does the poor battery life really matter to you? I know it really bothers me even though I am rarely that far from a plug. the key here for me is that when I am away from a plug I tend to want my brightness up all the way as I am normally outside.
What do you think? I'd love to read your comments
