About 4 months after its release, the Nintendo 3DS is getting a price cut, from $250 to $170. I remember being excited for the handheld when it was first announced, but the launch lineup was not really interesting. The announcement, along with the news that people who logged in the Nintendo virtual shop using their 3DS before August 12 would be given 20 free downloadable games , made me take another look at the handheld. Certainly, 4 months after its initial release, the system must have some decent games? Not only, the selection of games is very limited, the 3DS still has some big problems that make it difficult to rationalize the decision to buy one.

This was just announced at the Nintendo Press conference at the E3. There will be a sequel to the wonderful Golden Sun series on the Nintendo DS. If you haven’t played the Golden Sun games on the Gameboy Advance, I strongly recommend you play them both.

Not much is known about the game yet, but it’s supposed to be released in Spring 2010.
