I know this is kind of dumb but a developer putting "epic" in the name of their game really puts me off. You can only get away with that if you're Kirby.

Still no SMB3 huh? Was Mighty Bomb Jack really worth releasing over that? Life force on the other hand, that's okay.

Between that and A Link to the Past still not being up, I really want to know what the gently caress is going on with the people in charge of the VC service. It wasn't this bad for the first few years with the Wii was it?

Aw man, Untold's the one on sale? For some reason I thought it and IV were both going on. I really should have snagged that while I had the chance, I really liked the demo for IV. Untold is a remake of the first EO, right? Does it have any quality of life improvements over IV, or should I go for IV if I want the best EO experience? There's no storyline continuity between them, is there?

EO4 was on sale but it ended a few days ago. Their sales never seem to sync with the regular schedule, so they're easy to lose track of.

It wasn't this bad for the first few years with the Wii was it? November 19, 2006 was when Wii Virtual Console launched. Link to the Past was January 22, 2007 and Super Mario Bros. 3 came November 5, 2007. It's what, 13 months? In 13 months of the Wii Virtual Console you had 10 N64 games, 43 Genesis games, 45 Turbo Grafix games and 8 Neo Geo games. That's not even including how many NES and SNES games because there is almost as many Genesis games released by then for the Wii as there are NES and SNES games released for the Wii U now.

PaletteSwappedNinja posted:(there are probably more NA sales than listed here, NOA is always leaving crap off the press release) Here's the stuff from the price drop category on the 3DS eShop. Only the one game was released. Pac-Man and the Ghostly Adventures $29.99 ($10 off) Phineas and Ferb: Quest for Cool Stuff $19.99 ($10 off) Hotel Transylvania $9.99 ($10 off) Cloudy with a chance of Meatballs 2 $19.99($10 off) Doodle Jump $14.99($15 off) Bomb Monkey $2.99 ($2 off) Darts Up 3D is $0.99 on that sale, I think a first for the system.

Does anyone remember Moon, Renegade Kid's kinda-Metroid-y FPS for DS? Well, they've acquired the rights to their game and are remaking it for the 3DS eShop as "Moon Chronicles": http://au.ign.com/articles/2014/01/24/mutant-mudd-dev-announces-moon-chronicles-for-3ds They're going with an episodic format: the first "season" will be a remake of the original game, delivered as a series of DLC "episodes", and if it does well they'll release a second "season" of all-new episodes. 60FPS 3D, Circle Pad Pro support, yada yada.

Edit: I should read threads And a general thing I've noticed: physical copies are about the same, if not more(!) than the eShop version. So goes the topsy-turvy world of the Nintendo 3DS... Mr_D fucked around with this message at 04:31 on Jan 27, 2014 |

PAL update (week of January 31):quote:WII U RETAIL DOWNLOADS I imagine anyone with a Wii U has at least one of those indie games, so now you have an incentive to try the others, I suppose. They're all good games, even Spin The Bottle. Also, a reminder that the Wii Fit U trial promotion ends on January 31, so if you were ever planning to try it out you'd better get cracking.

A particularly empty release schedule usually indicates they're gonna spring something on us via Nintendo Direct, so there's still hope.

irlZaphod posted:drat, I was hoping that something else would be taking its place. Honestly it's about drat time it came out. The Wii/3DS/(and now) Wii U VC is the only unaltered release outside the original FDS game and it's ridiculous that it took them almost a year and a half to "port" it from the Wii VC. I wanted to play it on a stationary console in the original difficulty and didn't want to buy anything on the Wii VC because gently caress that noise.

Oh yeah, I don't think I mentioned that... Spin The Bottle is getting an update on the 13th that'll add a bunch of new camera-based games, and it'll also be getting a price hike on the same day, so if you're at all interested in the game you should probably get it while it's on sale.

It's £40 on the 3DS and Wii U eShop, so 40% off would make that £24. In my opinion if you wanted a copy of this game you should go for the Wii U version.

When they slap the Ultimate onto the game's title, that's the version you get. And yeah, if you're gonna get MH3U you should get the Wii U version if you can.

 I was gonna get Rune Factory 4 this month, but that Monster Hunter offer is super tempting. Is it worth it on the 3DS? I feel like the screen might be cramped for some of those huge, gently caress-off boss fights.
