Another week with nothing for me digitally. But that also means another week of saving money towards the 10+ physical releases in September.
Some of those retail 'new releases' are just preorders for next month by the way. Gun Gun Pixies is September 6th and Dead by Daylight is September 24th.
So no prices or 3DS and Wii U games this time, huh?
If it's not physical, wait for a discount.
Proven by 25% off DmC.
There are no prices ☹️
I checked the 3DS eShop and there are some new (although samey) titles on a sale again, so I guess they just don't bother sending that info anymore?
No prices or descriptions for most of the games this week?
I'll definitely be getting Turok 2 as I never played it back in the day. It will need to wait until I'm finished playing the 3 Doom's though.
Feels like this is missing a lot of info this week...
To me turok 2 is a game I'll get at Xmas time like back in 1998. Might actually be on sale by then too. Gutted pillars of eternity hasn't got a physical...
This week's AGameAWeek (via PetitCom4 SmileBASIC) game will be a nice colourful shooter, Microbes.
Watch out for that, later tonight, if you've a Japanese copy of PetitCom4.
@clvr @deKay according to Nintendoeverything, 'Nintendo no longer appears to be putting out a comprehensive digital download report as was the case in the past. Prices are essentially gone as a result.'
I suspect compiling the list with individual prices will now have to be done manually; I suspect the Team will be a little too busy to do this every week unfortunately.
@Madden87 Haha, I see what you did there!! Turok 2 for me also this week, it will be great to play this basically 20 years on again...
@sikthvash thank you for clarifying! I wonder why NL didn’t tell us themselves though 🤷🏼♂️
I mean, if you don’t want grumpy commenters like myself to point it out, write at the top of the page that it’s not your fault 😄
Definitely buying Turok 2 physically from LimitedRunGames. I used to love that game back as a kid. Had some great times playing the multiplayer with friends.
Danmaku Unlimited 3 (£4.04) and Vasara Collection Pre-Order (£4.49) for me this week. TATE mode, Flip Grip compatible shmup fix = satisfied for cheap!
I also managed to somehow get a pre-order of Astral Chain Limited Edition on ShopTo earlier today, so I'm putting my wallet firmly away for a while!
Waiting for Fire Emblem to become available on CEX online to use up some of my stacked credit. Currently occupied with Mario Odyssey, Steamworld Heist (Stupendous game!) and BoTW Season Pass whilst all of that rolls around.
I never played any of the Turok games for the N64. I think it's time to correct that.
@Benjoo or they take out due some license issue or maybe not enough downloads and taking it down. Sometimes you need to be quick
Turok on sale for anyone? Can't see any discount on mine.
I want turok 1 &2 but I feel it’s a bit pricey considering you can buy it for £3 for n64. I’ll get them one day
@sandman89 yes but those are only playable on TV while on Switch you can play it undocked. lol. That's why Nintendo I guess makes abuse of it. They know people will go for this eventually
@sandman89 they will both half in price at some point and then it becomes a better deal, i'm going to buy the first one with 25% off and use some gold points to get it down to around £10. the controls alone will make this more enjoyable for me than the N64 version!
It’s Grave Keeper by Forever Entertainment, not Graveyard Keeper by tinybuild. The linked review is misleading
As thanks for keeping Nintendo afloat, 2DS owners should be knee-deep in sale items.
Awww. Got exited when I see Turok 2. Says on the store that release is tomorrow tho 😣
@Daftbomb. They are VERY different types of game, too. Grave Keeper is a rather simple twin stick shooter game with basic rpg elements and some truly awful translation for the instructions/dialogue.
didn't realize Pillars of Eternity was coming to Switch. I might have to check it out now...
This list is ass! Where are all the prices?!
@quinnyboy58 yes I might do the same
Shame Hamster is being dumped in the 'also released' pile - especially in the week X Multiply is released. It wasn't so long ago that there would be weeks when Hamster titles were the only things worth getting...
are they waiting until tomorrow to put turok 1 on sale then? as no discount showing for me
Will pick up Turok 2. Just noticed Sega Ages Space Harrier and Puyo Puyo release on 22/08
Nothing for me this week
Pillars of Eternity is an outstanding CRPG, but i'll wait until they add a touch controls scheme.
BLAZBLUE CENTRALFICTION Special Edition
Nice, I recommend everybody to download the demo. Might be the best fighting game on the system and the graphics are great.
@antdickens erm, dont know if its my browser or not, but the original price and discount price is not coming up on the eShop sales (well except 5 of them)
@Bunkerneath nope, that's correct - all that info was not included in the press release this week and we're not doing it manually - it would take forever!
Turok 2 - all day long!
lol people are gonna download Turok 2, remember that its garbage to play, and immediately put it down. Nostalgia is really dumb sometimes
