Saoshyant posted:Are you mistaking this with Super Luigi U, which is getting a standalone version alongside the download-only DLC? A VC game shouldn't be getting a physical release, especially one as niche as Earthbound. Don't get me wrong, I'm pretty sure they aren't doing one, but I wouldn't be unhappy if they did. http://wiiudaily.com/2013/05/earthbound-listed-on-amazon-uk-could-see-physical-release/ And I agree, the series is kinda niche, but Nintendo has been doing good with releases like that lately (Kirby comes to mind, which as popular as Kirby is, I'm sure if they did the same thing for Earthbound, it'd sell as many copies as the Kirby collection probably did.) So I think it's just a mistake listing, and we're likely just going to get the VC release, which is completely fine by me.

PaletteSwappedNinja posted:It's just one of those random inaccurate listings that goes up every so often, you see tons of 'em every year. Best case scenario, Amazon will start selling digital codes for eShop/VC stuff in the same manner as Gamestop, Best Buy, etc. Which makes sense, since they already do for some Wii stuff. http://goo.gl/Co7QU My guess is they just priced the code high like Amazon does with everything else when an MSRP hasn't been established to keep people from randomly buying something with no information, like how (I think) Wii U games were priced at nearly $100 online before the system came out.

You need to use a content manager program they made, so you can't just drag and drop things on and off the system. Even better is if your connection is out for any reason, you can't use the program.

I do usually check up on that stuff but I rarely post it because I figure it's not relevant. Off the top of my head, I think they got the first Famicom Tantei Club game and Mario Bros. this week, and they're getting SMB and... something else next week.

Mario Bros was one of my first videogames what with Nintendo not officially releasing their systems here in the very early 90's, Famiclones were absurdly common and my 20-in-1 cart had that game, along with Galaga, Galaxian, and Pacman to name a few. 15 years later, I bought one of the GBA Super Mario games just to have the old Mario Bros around and did it not disappoint. It's a rather simple formula, sure, but it requires a good bit of improvising strategies in later stages. And that's the reason I still like that thing -- it's not all twitch platforming but figuring out what floor to be on to evade the energy balls, the ultra fast enemies, or the frozen blocks, and still manage to get as many coins as possible. It's true to its arcade roots, which is why it's great for a portable system.

And there's no way the Japanese release is going to have English text, just like there wasn't a chance of that for ever other game that wasn't a GBA port. I'm surprised people still bother getting their hopes up for that. You should be happy they didn't just elect to skip it like Layton vs. GS or Gyakuten Kenji 2

So how long do you have to take the Post Play survey on eShop Downloads for coins? Want to get the Zelda Oracle games, but I reached Elite for the year. I don't NEED them immediately, but would love to take advantage of having the coins go towards 2014 and getting the sale.

It should say when they expire. The surveys for the Zeldas haven't popped up for me yet, but the DKCR survey says that it expires September 20.

Flipnote 3D info! I'm just gonna quote the whole thing, it's pretty straightforward:quote:Flipnote Studio™ 3D is coming to the Nintendo 3DS™ system in August 2013! Along with a brand new animation creation application in Flipnote Studio 3D, two communities will be launched where you can share your flipnote creations. Flipnote Gallery: Friends makes it easy for you to open a gallery and share with your Nintendo 3DS friends. In Flipnote Gallery: World, you can share your flipnotes with users from all over the world. Both communities will launch at the same time as the Flipnote Studio 3D software. tl;dr: you can share with friends for free, you can view the global gallery for free for a few hours each day, and you can pay a monthly sub to access the global gallery whenever you want.

I wonder why nobody talked about Monster Shooter yet. Nice twin-stick style shooter with tons of mobs to mow down. Good graphics and animations. It's based on missions/shop paradigm (like Really Big Sky or Jetpack Joyride). It's also available on Steam Greenlight too. http://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=93084468 gameface posted:I'm not so sure.

Thank you all. I just unexpectedly won an ebay auction I was expecting to lose, so it looks like if I buy anything on the eshop it'll be the two oracle games while they're on sale, but I'll pick it up later for sure.
