Is there any reason to get F-Zero SNES instead of Maximum Velocity?

Because F-Zero SNES is better is almost every way?

I guess if you're coming into it with zero nostalgia and want the biggest bang for your buck, MV has more cars and more tracks. I still think F-Zero is better.

Oh hey, Nicalis just announced that Cave Story+ will finally be out on the 3DS eShop on May 1. Only took, what 18 months?

Speaking of, when did CS3D go crazy bonkers expensive? Guess I'm glad I got mine when I did.

Oh so they actually ship you poo poo? Awesome. I may try to hit platinum in that case. I thought it would just be lame "digital wallpaper" junk.

If you enjoy getting shipped 25 pins for filling out surveys, it's the way to go

Should add to your total as long as your 3DS is linked to your account.

Something else I saw on 1001 Spikes: the 3DS version is unique in that interactive/trap objects are more easily distinguishable than in the other versions, for reasons unknown. Compare the Wii U shot at the top to the 3DS shot at the bottom: the falling blocks are all a lighter tone than the other tiles, which makes them very easy to spot. Bug, or feature?



3DS is the baby version

More than happy to accept G&W as my Platinum reward for this year. It never seemed to dip much lower than the $29.99 MSRP which meant I was not going to buy it for some time... the perfect gift, one that I would not have bought myself but will appreciate nevertheless!

Man, I didn't even think of K.K. Slider. That would have been awesome. I'll take Isabel, though.

It just occurred to me that Booker and Copper in a crazy police car, Double Dash-style, would have been one of the best things ever.

How do I get Nintendo to pay me for all my good ideas?

What is your tolerance level for non-Square 16-bit RPGs? Because it has all the warts that come with games of that era (and then some).

Is there a good list of VC games that are available on both the original Wii store and the Wii U eShop? I have a buttload of Wii credit left over from 5~ years ago when Pepsi and Harmonix were giving out free Rock Band codes, but if you selected Wii as your platform you ended up just getting $2 in Wii credit. I'd like to maximize the amount of games that I could buy and then convert to Wii U VC games since playing on the pad is the best.

Does the eShop do good sales any more? I remember a few years back getting all the Guild series games for something like $2 each... now it looks like the same dumb Atlus games and shovelware garbage week in, week out.

Gotta Protectors isn't out in PAL-land and it sounds like they haven't even started the process of bringing it over, and if the NA version doesn't sell it'll take even longer (or it just won't happen).

It's a fairly lengthy game and they didn't send out review codes so I think all the reviewers are still playing it.

Unfortunately tower defense is gross and deserves to die, no matter how cool its aesthetic might be

I mean, the PS4 also had and has strong third-party support, and going by Wikipedia, it had at least two exclusive first-party launch games (Killzone and Knack), which puts it one ahead of the Switch. I'd say the PS4 doesn't need PS1 games nearly as much as the Switch needs VC.

Are you not counting Zelda as exclusive, because.... that'd be silly.
