More like early Friday, February 18th, but who's counting?

Anyway, glad to know that there are some people who actually read this stuff! Thanks, guys!

For those who found the hands-on with the 3DS games to be a bit too overwhelming, however, there is now an alternative, as I have split up most of it into individual hands-on articles. These are largely the same content, but now in smaller, bite-size chunks (and with more pics per title).

So have a look, and find out what let me down about Nintendogs + Cats, what lifted my spirits in Pilotwings Resort, what is painfully disappointing about Kid Icarus: Uprising, and more.

From the Canada Nintendo Examiner:

Hands-on with Nintendo 3DS: Nintendogs + Cats

Hands-on with Nintendo 3DS: Pilotwings Resort

Hands-on with Nintendo 3DS: Super Street Fighter IV: 3D Edition

Hands-on with Nintendo 3DS: Kid Icarus: Uprising

Hands-on with Nintendo 3DS: The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time 3D

And from the conclusion of the article from which these came:

All in all, I really enjoyed my time with the system. A launch line-up has yet to be finalized, and so I don't know if I can say this is something gamers will want to have on Day 1. But even so, I firmly believe that over time, just as with the DS before it, the 3DS will definitely be a gaming device which will be worth owning.

And that's not just because of the highly-touted, eponymous 3D feature, either. It's simply fun.
