Evening Reading

Despite a pretty exhausting travel itinerary, I'm pretty excited for the quick trip to New York to finally get a chance to really play with a 3DS.

I'm very curious to see how the hardware holds up to closer inspection, with games to play, and whether it measures up to the to be announced (we hope) price.

    Thats just Quality of Service. Get a router that has that and turn it on for your games and/or turn http to lower priority or something. No guarantee it will be flawless but it may help.
