I´m currently playing Aliens: Infestation on DS. Think its great so far, the only problem i´m having is keeping people alive when I encounter bosses, think I have lost about 6 soldiers.


Probably my favvorite Alien game since Alien vs Predator on PC (1999), it really captures the mood from the movies.

I enjoyed that game too. I managed to get to the last boss without losing a character (by which I mean, I reloaded when I lost a character). When I finally did let them die in facing the last boss it was really very satisfying, lol.

I can understand why people don´t like permadeath, but I have always liked it. For me it makes the game all the more exciting when you have to be more carful with your resources.


And in this particular game I think it lends greatly to the overall feel and suspense (allthough it´s not  real permadeath). In the movies the aliens are much stronger then the humans and there are going to be alot of casualties.

Nintendo Gaming / Re: 3DS Repair Question (Top Screen Scratch) - Data Concern

Losing data is still a risk, but don't think that requesting your fix gets "done right" is ungrateful.  The problems you listed don't sound reasonable to me, and I'd be quick to request a do over if the multiple spots of damage you mention leave you feeling at all bummed.

Just one opinion.  Obviously you'll have to make up your own mind.

Thanks, ejamer.  I appreciate the encouragement.  Nintendo was really nice about it, and that wobble is driving me nuts, so I am going to go ahead and send it to their HQ repair center in Washington.  I hope I keep the data through another repair process!  I'll let you know how it goes.

I also had my 3DS sent in for repair. They exchange my broken system for a new one and all the street pass data and data of what I had played was gone.

Does not bother me that much, rather have a functioning system. But I lost allot of street passes....

I'm sorry to hear you lost data!  That's a bummer.  Even when they swap to a new system, this shouldn't happen because the system transfer feature covers most things of importance.


Do you mind if I ask you: how recent was this? and which repair center handled it?


You're definitely right though: it's better to have a functioning system!

It was a couple of months ago. Sent it to Nintendo support here in Norway.
