Moon Chronicles Lands on the 3DS eShop in North America on 15th May

Was not expecting another game for May. Oh well, there goes my wallet.

so europe won't see the game until everything is done? why??

All those together are way to expensive.

@kereke12
$15 is too expensive? With the option to pay less and just stop after the first $9? This game is not for you, then.

Okay, let's think for a second... When should I be able to get this game? I live in Europe, so... January 2015? Summer 2015? Or should we be absurdly optimistic: Winter 2014?

I really do like Renegade Kid, because Mutant Mudds (for which I'm waiting for an update) is probably the best game in 3DS' eShop. That said, I'm really disappointed for the fact that we Europeans have to wait half a year / 1 year more than Americans for one game. I don't even know if I should be excited or sad about this new trailer and other information we got today.

US Import download for me!

@6ch6ris6 They've said before that the european rating system is a pain in the butt. I'd think that's the reason.

I have to say the trailer kinda turned me off the game. Graphically, it's nothing special and the framerate looked a little shaky in some clips. I'd be lying if I said I was excited in the first place (I'm terrible at FPSes) but this combined with the news that Europe won't get it until a long time after America (as with Mutant Mudds Deluxe, which we didn't get at all) leaves me with a sour taste in my mouth.

At least there's Treasurenauts.

Uh the gameplay looks kinda sloppy.

Would have been nice if there was a demo.

I don't have a 3DS, but if I did, I would rather play FPS with graphics that don't remind me of the original doom.

For a remake of a mediocre game it is a bit too expensive. The only thing the original had going for it was a nice atmosphere and the remote control vehicle thing.

Sweet! Can't wait to give this a go. Poor man's Metroid Prime here I come!

I'll stick to my $10 Metroid Prime: Hunters, thanks.

Dumb question, but, is it in 3D?

Nice! Thanks Jools/Renegade Kid! I've never played the DS version so this is pretty cool and 15 bucks for the entire season isn't a bad deal after all I think this will be my first 3DS shooter. (if you don't count RE:R or Kid Icarus)

Scram Kitty, Kirby and Moon Chronicles next week Sorry wallet..

I will buy the first episode and decide from that whether I want to purchase additional episodes.

I will probably buy the first episode to try it out. It was ok on the DS, and with this more or less being the first FPS game out on the 3DS, aside from the RE games (I'm not counting the on rail shooter eShop games) I want to try it out.

I would be happy with a RARE re-release of the original Goldeneye 64 in 3D with online play, but that is never going to happen.

@IxnayontheCK Scan this QR code with your 3DS and see for yourself!

Is this one of those, "Where am I supposed to go" kind of games?

On my radar, I'll be looking for details on how well it plays.

This game was fantastic on DS, I'll happily play it again!

@PJR0cks I kinda like the original Doom xD what's funny is this trailer reminds me kinda of doom and then I was thinking "hey we need a Doom for 3ds" lol. thou I understand your point. I guess it's my "age" grafix mean nothing to me, playing from atari 2600 on.

@kereke12 $15 for 10 hours of gameplay? OH MY GOD BURN THE WITCHES!!

I can't get over the people complaining that this is too expensive. This could have just as easily been put on a cart and retailed for $40. Remake or not, its a full game, $15 is not expensive.

$15 IS very REASONABLE!!!!

Very cool to get a release date. Definitely my next 3DS eShop title.

Yeah I really don't have any desire to play First person shooters on my 3ds. I don't even like shooter's on my consoles with two analog sticks, shooters were meant for Pc's imo.

Really looking forward to Treasurenauts though.

@Zemus-DJ
well I started my gaming on Atari too, I was 3 or 4 back then, but I never got doom really, it just made me dazy, I hated first person shooters back then, until 1998 that I played Half Life and it suddenly changed my gaming world, and it started there and was followed by Unreal Tournament, counter strike and more recent games like COD, I just don't think I want to go back to those times you know, I guess I appreciate all that's been achieved in the genre. having said all that, Doom was one of the games that started it all, so no disrespect intended, and I know you aren't the only one that really liked that game.

@Liquid_ice Ya that sucks, but then again you guys got Professor Layton vs PW before us..

Cool. At $9, i'll try it out later this summer when i have more time and stuff. June is so packed for me that i'm not even sure how often i'll be able to play Mario Kart 8, let alone get to all the great eshop and VC games that have come out lately and arr coming soon. Too many games to play, not enough time or money.

awesome! i will be getting this for sure!

Might be getting this. My Circle Pad Pro hasn't gotten much use after I beat Resident Evil Revelations.

About time

@daveh30 Amen to that ! I'm happy that nintendolife called out the prices a LONG time ago too ! Some how they knew *wink *wink !!!!

@kyuubikid213 What did you think of R.E.R w/ the CPP? That game took me from Mario bros platfrom style to Real Life Pro-Pad radicalness/leved-up my gaming skills in a way no other hand held game had prior! Nano Assult EX is also really cool to play with the CPP !

Hey! it's...Quake 1?

Meh...not impressive. I don't just mean the graphics, but the art-style and design is quite bland. I don't want to shoot floating glowy-ball-things in dull corridors.

The level design is basic and ugly. Pass. Too many other better titles coming next week.

I cant wait. I got glitched out of the original so Ill finally be able to beat this thing. I just hope it plays well with the circle pad. Ideally we will have a lot of customizable controls/sensitivity sliders to make sure it does.

@tj3dsXL It's pretty great. It's a little weird because I hadn't played third person Resident Evil with dual analog control until then. Once I got used to it though, it worked out well. The walking animation can look a little funny at times if you start strafing, but otherwise, it's an enjoyable option to have that changes up the game a bit.

If you really want a shake up in Revelations, try using Gyro aim.

Finally a release date getting this on day one.

@kyuubikid213 OMG = so fluid !!! I def. have a new wrinkle in my brain...i had no idea this was an option, i gotta learn to truly "play" around with ALL the settings from now on ! Thank U

I hope the battery in my Circle Pad Pro still works.

@kereke12 As others have said, if you consider $15 is too much for a game then... This isn't the App Store. I wish all games, including retail packaged ones, were all $15!

Anyhow, I'm excited this is already here just about! I played some of it on DS but never got a chance to finish it (was a friend's cart and had to give it back lol). Plus, the Circle Pad ought to make controlling things a lot easier this time around and the updated graphics, 3D... Oh, man! Haha. And I'm cool with the pricing strategy: I don't mind paying for episodic releases.

Why didn't he mention the season pass?

@brandonbwii
1) Episodes 2-4 are considered to be the "first season" and are still in development.
2) Anyone wanting to play the game is required to pony up the cash for episode 1 (which is the remake of the original DS game). After episode 1, you'll be able to purchase a season pass for the remaining episodes when episode 2 drops.

This trailer makes me want to play this game. The gameplay looks very old school, which I love, and the music reminds me of Doom
Will buy this when/if it comes to Europe.

So let's summarize it. Renege Kid made slightly enhanced remake of DS game. Game, which is pretty mediocre and it's original version is 100% compatibile with 3DS system. They decided to release it only via eShop on the platform, which has no proper account system and all digital titles are bound to specific piece of hardware. And on top of that - episodic release. And they expected money for that... And my question is - are they nuts?!

I still have the DS cartridge, for which I payed more than double. Since we have to wait that much longer, I might just play through the DS game again, then maybe still get it. After all, I've been aching to see an FPS with stylus aiming, in 3D, since LAUNCH OF THE 3DS! DS shooters worked great, most of the time! And while Kid Icarus Uprising felt a bit weird on the controls, it was still an amazing game! Resident Evil had no touch aiming (although the variety of other options all worked great), and I gave up hoping to ever see a Dementium 3. Now with Cult County's future being unclear...

For this Texan studio Europe is once again no man’s land.

(っ-●益●)っ ,︵‿ USA = "1st" on the MOON once again this time !!! [̲̅$̲̅(̲̅ιοο̲̅)̲̅$̲̅]

@IxnayontheCK drum roll.......YES !!! Website says "Experience Renegade Kid's award-winning first-person shooter remastered in glorious 3D.". heres the link to that http://www.nintendo.com/games/detail/NwJOZhBCusbUSUTxOa6h08EoUF078hHA
My personal point of view is : Think StarShipDamery3ds or the Prometheus Movie style of sharp-crisp-cooler toned 3D !

@c1pher_c0mplet Its a poor deal considering the competition. Which is Ironfall for the 3DS. Borderlands 2 for the Vita (Which is only slightly more and still a port but of a much better game). Or say Doom Classic Complete on PSN. Moon was rubbish to start with. It is also not far off say Deus Ex : Human Revolution Directors Cut for the Wii U. They are all similar type of situations.

Ironfall certain looks a far better proposition (And $15 for that would be fine or more). http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Dg8hDlolN3U (Old demo).

(It is not the cost its the awful quality in relation to the cost associated with Renegade Kid).

this supports the CPP right? instant buy for me, can't wait.

alrigth!!! will definitely be buying it!!

Sweet, I think if I buy this , it'll be when all of them are out. Because this really is one game being released in stages, and a rather unique payment plan.

Is that music from the game? Or does anyone know what it is? That's worth the $9 alone, if its in the game.

.....punches wallet..... time to pay up again!
