Angry Birds is the worst game I have ever played. Sooooooo boring. That's not to say iOS sucks, just that particular game. I think I'd rather pay £30 for any Zelda game than 69p for Angry Birds...

What if Angry Birds was a mini-game in a WarioWare type game?

Edgey, Gumshoe, Godot, Sissel, Larry, then Mia, Franziska, Maggie, Kay and Lynne.

I'm throwing my money at the screen but nothing happens!

App store / Google Play - 99.99% garbage.
3DSWare - 9.99% anti-grabage.

I wish all those so-called "Games" on the Smart Phone market would be forced to have an ERSB / PEGI (or the country equivalent) rating.
I could eat popcorn while the news reports on all these "games developers" are losing money and have been forced into bankruptcy.

Check out this spectacular review/article:

A Nintendo site.

Yep, utterly unbiased publication there. Exactly where I would go for information on whether 3DS is better than iOS.

Then don't go there. This is the classic definition of a logical fallacy though. The opinion may be valid or not regardless of the source. Obviously any writer has an opinion on a subject forms an opinion before writing the article. But yes its vastly different to the hordes of iOS sheep writing rwviews and they're much more 'valid"

Some game on eshop are getting quite expensive 8-10€ for a download game is a lot, much more than anyone used to steam would expect it to be for a small 2D or even 3D games.

Funny but in some way good thing I would spend much more money if they are cheaper

Hang on a sec. He didn't mention iOS. This was never about whether iOS is better than Eshop. This was just a kid making a point about if Eshop games are expensive. eShop games are expensive. I'm not saying expensive games ont the eshop are useless, but every now and then, you have to ask yourself if it's really worth paying 12 of your precious Euros on Shantae: Risky's Revenge, or 10 Euros on Dillon's Rolling Western. So let's try this again.

Is iOS better than Eshop?
(coughs) Woops
Is 8 Euro or more to much for an Eshop game?

Generally I am very happy with my eShop games, sure I have made a couple of mistakes and I suppose the problem with eShop games are you can't trade them in for something better. But I don't have a problem with the price I pay because I compare them more to a retail cart than an iOS / android app game.
If I did compare them to iOS/android then damn right I would think they were expensive, but as I compare them to cart games I feel I pay for what I get... like with the DSiware games that were chunks of a complete retail title I had to think... hmmmm, thats pretty much a third of whatever game, but its the bit that I like is it worth paying a third of the price or whatever... and yes I think it is. And some games I have played I have thought, yeah I would have paid more than this if it was a retail game and I would have bought it.
