Well by now I think its safe to say that every DSi owner has heard about THE biggest game to hit the DSiware shop is (according to Nintendo) sheduled for a 1st Quarter release. Thats this Monday if they are true to their word. With so many games missing their release dates, I was wondering if you think Nintendo will let us down again. Honestly with a game this big I think if we dont hear anything by Saturday, Monday will be a big FAIL on Nintendos part. However, the Monday after next(April/5) marks the 1 year anniverary for the US/EU Dsi release. That has me thinking about those two updates has the best chance for Shantae to finally get release.

So what do you guys think?
Will Nintey keep this date?

I doubt it, they might move the date till late April. Or at least, that's what I believe might happen.

If it doesn't come out Monday, I'm sure they will release it on April 5th. Since its a big title, I think they will release it on April 5 for a 1st year anniversary gift. But, thats just a guess. You'll never know for sure what Nintendo will pull out of their magic hat. I hope photo dojo and x-scape come out on April 5 too. That would be one great download week!

You know, developers aren't bonded to their release dates in any way. Wasn't this supposed to come out Q4 last year until it got bumped to here? WayForward is simply trying to make an amazing game, and I wouldn't mind waiting for an amazing platformer than just an ok one.

Exactly.

O.k. I see what mean about the game getting pushed back another Quarter. However do we every really know the real reasons for any game getting held up by Nintendo or the developer? Honestly I think the blame has a lot with Nintendo since they have the final say about when each game will be release. Their has to be someone in Nintedos office who is constantly coming up with reasons to hold off on these games. Streching out the big titles just long enough to keep everyone interested seems like what they are doing with these title. Maybe they are trying to buy time for some other reason...

They said on this week's Nintendo Week that it's going to be an episodic game (with 3 episodes).

We still have around 3 days for Nntendo to drop a press release about this title. They have been full of surprises lately so yea......

Well, since it's episodic maybe WayForward is pushing Risky's Revenge back so that all 3 can be released in quick sucession. You know, so that people don't have to re-learn how to play Shantae when the second and third titles come out and so that the titles can build off of the momentum of the others. I'm just wildly pitching ideas out there, I have no way of knowing what's going through WayForward's head.

Exactly.

According to Nintendo's WiiWare schedule, Cave Story was due out last year, as was NightSky and La Mulana.

I got the same impression from the mention on Nintendo Week, that it's not going to be out for a bit.

She-Ra is awesome. If you believe otherwise, you are clearly wrong.
Urban Champion is GLORIOUS.

Yea,me too. All this info about Shantae is driving me crazy. I have never played the game b4 but hearing about it makes me want to play it so bad. It would be good if Nintendo could give us a heads up about dsiware releases.( not even the Nintendo site tells you.) All it says is coming soon and the games still haven't came out yet!

Honestly, I kind like Mondays Mystery update. We are the only region that does that and its kinda cool.......
Except for when it comes to this Shantae game.

Fingers, Arms and Legs crossed that it finally drops. I REALLY want this game. This is the only reason Ive kept my DSi is for Shantae on DSiWare, as I was going to sell it and just keep my DS Lites, but I found out that day that Shantae was coming to DSiWare and man has it been a long wait.
