Nah, that's the sticker they put on the box for the Canadian release.

The only time you're going to see that sticker in the states is if you ever shop at a Canadian owned store like 5 Below. I'm not sure if 5 Below is even outside of Michigan and Canada now that I think about it...

I'm working through the Oracle games on the VC myself, and I forgot how good they are. I remembered them being decent, but they're actually quite good. It's like a return to the golden age where Zelda games were really good and intelligently created. Somehow, I have a feeling they'll completely gently caress up Link to the Past 2 and I'll hate everything.

Oh, alright. I mean even if it was on the US box if it was just a sticker I wouldn't care so much. Though I wish the ugly white 3D Warning box would be a sticker too.

I blew it and missed the Target sale that just ended. Are there any sick deals coming up in the next month or should I just bite the bullet and get the Pop Tart Edition?

The Gateway 3DS now has a price $80/€65 For all that you get: The ability to pirate one retail game at a time No way to backup saves No homebrew gateway-3ds.com The skiddies are eating this device up because they think that the encryption was broken when in reality it is no more than a "make your own bootleg" kit.

First time I got to the final boss I had avoided encounters when I didn't feel like fighting and was pretty weak. I ran out of BP/FP whatever it was called and had to do normal attacks only Each attack only did 3-5 damage I was at it for a few hours no joke.  Then I found out they jacked her HP up in the US version for no goddamn reason and got all kinds of mad.

I thought the final boss of Partners in Time was an order of magnitude easier than the one from Superstar Saga. Am I crazy? Cackletta has kicked my rear end every time I played that game.

I'm generally a pansy when it comes to game difficulty, but I don't recall ever having a problem with Superstar Saga and Partners in Time. I haven't played Bowsers Inside Story yet though... I gotta get on that before the new one comes out.

I tend to enjoy playing games much later when they are out. Whenever the new Zelda comes out, it's supposed to be the greatest thing ever and everyone goes apeshit how it's the best thing since A Link to the Past and then 6 months later you find out in reality no one really liked Twilight Princess.

If you have a way to play it, Superstar Saga is the best one in the series, but Bowser's Inside Story is more readily available and a close second. Partners in Time isn't bad, but it falls way short of the other two.

Bowser's Inside Story is the best of the series. Superstar Saga is good but definitely flawed, and Partners in Time put me off enough that I haven't even finished it.

Superstar Saga is great but it has some serious flaws (like the disjointed broken Beanstar quest). I think BiS is my favorite too.

I've actually had better results with SNEmulDS than the DSTwo's special SNES emulator, which is pretty sad. Stuff is still pretty hosed up as far as layers and I dont think anything with Super FX works but you can play Zelda at least. And it runs as if it were a DS rom which means sleep mode works.

I guess I should adjust my answer. The microphone works... alright, on an actual DS (I have a DS Lite) where the microphone is on the hinge and is actually facing you. On the 3DS, the mic is on the bottom, oriented down, and it is absolutely impossible to get it to consistently register a complete, continuous breath. I can't play Spirit Tracks either for the same reason; no matter how I hold the drat thing, it doesn't work. And it didn't work that well on the DS Lite either. Just slightly better.

Whoever designed the sneezing minigame and decided it was ready to ship as is an absolute fucker. But other than that and the dumb Fawful Express boss (do it near perfectly or you're boned) I really love Bowser's Inside Story. Also yeah, the Partners in Time final boss isn't necessarily harder. It's just longer. (Also the fact that the Bros. Attacks are tied to items is duuuuumb and doesn't help at all.)

It has almost nothing to it. No side quests or areas. No fun. Nothing. I guess if you load your completed save there's an extra boss or something but who the gently caress would ever play that game after beating it?

Partners in Time kinda poo poo up Bowser's Inside Story too because the secret boss in BIS was just three regular Shroobs and the fight was lame as hell. Unrelated: I'm going to take my 3DS on a plane. All I'll need to do is hit the wireless switch to not have the thing get me killed, right? There isn't some kind of discrete "airplane mode" option in the actual OS options? RyokoTK fucked around with this message at 06:06 on Jun 4, 2013 |

Ugh, apparently the only way I'm going to get the Animal Crossing 3DS XL bundle is if I order it online but with shipping it'll make it cheaper to just buy a 3DS and the game (and miss out on the cool pattern). Anyone have any idea if it'll be in any stores or if I'm poop out of luck? Edit: Should I just find a Target and pick up a DS for 175 and buy the game separate? Does anyone know what kind of ink an artist should use to draw on a 3ds? If I get a plain 3DSXL I'd like to have someone draw something on it so it isn't so,... plain.
