So I guess no one here's tried out Moon Chronicles? Back in my GBA days I chose the Pacman Collection over "Castlevania"

I'm playing Circle of the moon, how does the card system works? I have both Mercury and Salamander shouldn't I be able to use a special ability (Fire Whip)?

.TakaM posted:America's getting episodes 2, 3, and 4 simultaneously yes, but they have confirmed the full game will be contained in one download for PAL regions. link Oh, well there you go! I played the original DS game and didn't think much of it - it looked nice for a DS game but that's about the only compliment I could give it. The episodic thing they did with the 3DS version makes it even worse because the first episode contains barely any gameplay at all and I can't imagine many people are gonna wanna shell out for the rest.

The Kins posted:They're making way for the new 3DS iteration, SmileBASIC, that's coming out in the Spring. I guess they're trying to reduce the odds of people buying the old one and trying to run code for the old one? Are Petit Computer programs compatible with the new SmileBASIC?

A lot of the code is identical between versions but a lot of it isn't, and the only (official) way to move/edit the old games in the new program is to manually re-enter all your code. File sharing in SmileBASIC is done via an online server; you upload your games to the server and it generates a public key that you can share with people that'll let them download your stuff.

Kurtofan posted:Cool, thanks. While we're on the subject also bear in mind that each card is dropped only by one specific type of enemy, and the type of enemy that drops a given card has more to do with progressing through the game and less with any congruence between enemy and card. For example the Serpent card (ice modifier) is dropped by Earth Demons, as it's an early card in the list and the Earth Demon is an early-game enemy. If you have a gap in your card collection, the missing card is probably dropped by an enemy in the previous area.

Just downloaded Steel Diver and Rusty's Real Deal Baseball on my 3DS... already had Pokemon Bank... any other freebies I'm missing that hand out Club Nintendo coins (U.S. region)? And I forget, are there any games/apps like that on the Wii U eShop?

Yeah it's kind of weird and it certainly doesn't help that the drop rates are pretty drat low even by Castlevania standards. Also I just thought of an exception- there's at least one card I can think of that is in the middle of the card line but is in an early area, it's just hidden past a barrier you can only pass with a later item.

Hey goons, are there some problems with the eShop right now? I'm downloading Metroid Prime and the download is taking F-O-R-E-V-E-R. The console tells me the download will be done in 100 hours and in so far five and a half hours only ~5% of the game has been downloaded. I've checked the house's internet but on my laptop and my mom's tablet it works ok. Right now the only things using the internet are the Wii U and my laptop (and I'm just using the browser with two tabs open and no other downloads). I just want to play Metroid with my brother before I go back to uni on Tuesday

Anyway, I bought some eshop cash when I found out metroid prime was going to be in the shop but I didn't read the price and so I have some extra money for my Wii U/3DS. Anyone got any recommendations? I have a hard time judging which non-virtual console games would be cool.

Does DLC for 3DS titles give you Club Nintendo coins? I'm petty sure Wii U DLC does. Particularly, I'm wondering about the coin rush DLC in NSMB2 and various songs in Theatrhythm Curtain Call. I wasn't in a rush, but I might as well buy stuff a little ahead of schedule if it'll get me some extra coins before the program's dead.

Right now the only things using the internet are the Wii U and my laptop (and I'm just using the browser with two tabs open and no other downloads). As I found out, Metroid Prime Trilogy is HUGE. Slightly over 8 gigs. It's not the biggest thing on the eShop (off the top of my head Darksiders II was like 26GB and Smash 4 is 11GB) but it's still really big compared to, say, 3D World or MK8, which are somehow less than 2GB each. So if you've got a base-level Cable or (gasp) DSL connection, indie and Mario games would probably download in an few hours or so, while stuff like MPT or SSB4 is gonna take significantly longer. (Also If you think that's bad, I bought three PC games last year that were more than 50GB to download each. Thank goodness that Comcast hasn't established data caps proper yet, and as someone who now almost exclusively buys games digitally I hope they never do.)

I've got a midrange Comcast internet subscription that nets me 25-35Mbps (Comcast themselves quote 25Mbps on their site for my plan) depending on time of day and the server I'm downloading from, and as I remember Shadow of Modor took about 3-4 hours.

I see. I think our plan in Telnor is ~10Mbps, but Telnor is kind of poo poo anyway (seriously I think +20Mbps are on the expensive plans over here in Mexico). But now that you mention it, I'm pretty sure that I've gotten games from Steam that weigh more that Metroid that didn't take as long.
