I'm going to have to make an early recommendation for Little Inferno for the WiiU. It's a little pricy at 15 bucks, but it's an experience. The premise is pretty simple, you're given a fireplace and a catalog of stuff to burn. Everything thing you burn gets you more money than you started with to buy more stuff to burn. All the while you get letters from your neighbor, from Tomorrow Corp, and from The Weather Man. It's absolutely bizarre and like nothing else I've ever played.

It just adds a short scene during the ending. I dug it up on YouTube after I beat it last week, it's pretty underwhelming.

PaletteSwappedNinja posted:The dude who mentioned it said it was "a 25% sale for the next couple weeks", so I guess that confirms it. Weird that Atlus didn't bother mentioning it at all (or maybe they did and I wasn't paying attention). I'm sure if Atlus had said anything, there'd have been an email. They are relentless with their goddamn emails.

I don't know what to think about Nintendo putting up the digital versions of games two weeks before retail. I mean, it's obviously a ploy to make sure fanboys give them the money directly. It's also going to work on me! I am kind of grumpy that I can't get that bitchin' Zelda gamepad, though.

Sarchasm posted:Chris Kohler at Wired had a really good take on this: The digital version isn't two weeks early, the retail version is two weeks late. It's going to be on shelves when Nintendo gets the goods pressed, assembled, and shipped. Their first retail commitment that month is to the Wii U Zelda bundle, and everything else becomes secondary. It's more of an 'Oh, I expected to have to wait until October!' sort of thing. I'm just used to Nintendo doing inexplicable poo poo regarding the internet. I have no issues with it, just not sure what to make of them doing sensible things. I think I'd rather do digital anyway, since the disc version doesn't have any perks. Getting it two weeks earlier than expected is nice bonus, too. Fake edit: I still want that gamepad. Nintendo!

Man, I didn't even think of K.K. Slider. That would have been awesome. I'll take Isabel, though. Also, I like that Nintendo is doing something season pass-esque where they actually tell you what you're getting, instead of buying a pig in the a poke like most other companies do anymore.

I thought the reason Pokemon features lagged the way they did was that they developed stuff in parallel and it didn't cross pollinate?

Jakk posted:It looks like it will be a major PITA and cost more $$$ to mod a Wii U to run a generic GB emulator, build a retroPi or connect a GBA to a TV after doing some research. I think I opt for using a USB controller and emulator on a computer instead. I'm pretty sure there's a GBA emulator for the Homebrew Channel. Smash Stack still works on the virtual Wii menu.

They have a multi-billion dollar war chest. They don't need crowdfunding. Oh yeah, if you're a Gamer's Club Unlocked member, they sent out codes for an early demo of Bravely Second.

Early access and paid betas as things are bad enough, I don't think we need 'major publishers doing crowdfunding' added on. It's a terrible deal from a consumer perspective to have to pay money up front before a company will even consider a project.Rexroom posted:I'm going to be an unique snowflake and say try Legend of Legacy. Or at least the demo. I tried the demo and I didn't really get into it.

I have a copy of Clayfighter 63 1/3 Sculptor's Cut. Look like that game's running for like 400 in decent shape. Mine needs a bit of cleanup, since it has Blockbuster security stuff on it. The manual goes for even more.
