Excitebots EU?!?!

Another good outing for the black and white blob.

I will join in saying I enjoyed Fun Fun Minigolf. Underrated IMO.

The demo was ok actually. Decentish in fact, Its just that the home console version is better and cheaper.

Ooh yeah

Apparantly this LEGO video game has significant differences to the others. Also, there's some rumours it has 50 unlockable DC characters. Insta-buy.

(The 3DS version isn't open world according to the Nintendo Gamer/ONM previews)

NO. Why? Money.

The more reliable twitter source (video game journos) suggest its also lined up for the Wii U and that it may be more than just a rumour

Wow. Early. Good. C'mon!

AoB is one of the best download games anywhere on any platform. It really is top notch. Couldn't be more of a insta-DL if it tried.

If you enlarge the image by clicking on it it looks nice. The main issue for me isn't too much what it likes like. I want it to work well. Analogue sticks are a step in the right direction.

7 or 8 out of 10 is still a good score and, for me, it sounds better than Mario Power Tennis. That game over-implemented the power shots making it unfair for all kinds of players. The GBA game sounds like the definative Mario Tennis game. A good addition to the 3DS library IMO, but maybe not for me in the long term.

Thanks for the review. The reliable reviewers have pretty much said the same things. More 2 or multiplayer than single player fulfilling game. Still in 2 minds about getting it. I tend to sell on such games after a few months of 2 player play. Having said that I still have Mario Strikers and Mario Sports Mix.

I liked the Demo. Good addition to 3DS library. The only problem for me is the slight smallness of the sprites and Rayman feels noticeable stiffer than the Wii version. There isn't that lovely, ultra-precise flopping of Rayman than makes u make some all in one movement maneouvres. Almost graceful in fact. Not going to trade in wii version for this though.

Cool

Its a nice idea but as some have indicated you can find DS classics on the net second hand for very cheap now. Would Nintendo really charge that cheap a price as a digital DL? Also, space issues?

The combat looks like a dream come true. Insta-buy but I too am wondering about the RPG element about. Main focus is on the combat. Probably a combat heavy and frequnet 3PG

Rabbids Party Legends. You heard it first! I think NL are pretty much spot on with their predictions. I also think we'll see all those games within the first 12 months of Wii U's life.

NL rated Zelda TP 7/10 (I'd give it a high 9) and rated Zelda SS 10/10 (agreed by score policy).

Fi isn't a substitute for Midna anyway. Its substitues for mr. "hey listen" !

The new art style is poor

Its much better than the wiiware version as its a lot more intuitive. That's important in a game like this. Its a lesser version of the Jewel Quest series and follows the same sort of game objectives. Presentation isn't as good as JQ and it sometimes a bit hard to make out which grid square remains to turn gold. Worth a DL if u don't have Jewel Quest and/or bejeweled on your handheld systems.

Awesome "re-make" of an all time great game. 9/10 all the way. Even if u had a passing interest in the original, you owe it to yourself to get this gem. A classic made even better? What's not to like?

I've played Rayman Origins to smithereens and its personally my favourite 2D platformer on the system, even surpassing the brilliant Nintendo IPs. However, may trade it in if the 3DS version is any good as the lad and I are done with co-op. Would love to experience it again on a 3D handheld. Please be good, please.

Thanks! Good! Woohoo!

Got the splendid Wii version but will give this demo a spin

Good week for me. 3 things to DL there including the demo. Already have RO on Wii put I'll check this 3DS version aat. Kirby's Dream Land 2 and Bird Mania will b mine too!

Wow, that was a interesting read I wasn't expecting that. I found it hard to imagine going from the GC and PS2 controller to a wiimote and nunchuck. Once I tried it though I was hooked right up till now (and beyond). Prefer it to old controller set up to my great surprise. Most importantly, it brought my family into gaming like never before. The ultimate social gaming experience. All time greats have appeared on this console and I've played more games on this console and the DS (each) than any other in history.

Really enjoyed playing those old N64, SNES, NES favourites on my Wii as well as DLoading 2or3 I missed out on back in the day.

Its a side scrolling fighting game from the makers of Guardian Heroes. Hopefully it'll get a Western release

Frak!

Rhythm Thief. Mario Strikers (re-visiting it with my oldest son). Some DL games eg. G+W Gallery 2, Alpha Bounce.

Being a casual Marvel fan from my youth I was surprised how good the film was. I will be monitoring this. Please don't frak up this licensed game

Its great as expected.

Its been on shopto.net's pre-order list for last couple of months curiously. Started a thread on the forums asking about it too. Thanks for the great news. Lego Batman 2 sounds like it could actually be brilliant as well. Huge fan of the video game franchise and , admittedly, LEGO itself!

Well that's a big disappointment. Still, doesn't completely rule out another Kid Icarus game, just not an Uprising 2. Why did he say 25 years though?!

Insta-DL. Some mags predict this would be released for the Wii U DL service as well.

The new 3DS game is awesome and this looks pretty cool. I do agree though, kind of looks GBA than SNES - which is cool anyway.

VVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVV !!!!!!!!

Mys son and I are fans of this series. Just bring the sequels and other iterations on, we'll insta-buy them

Wii Wheel with Super Hang On? Got to try that!

@LittleIrves - wow, that's exactly my feelings towards the Wii with identical Nintendo history to boot :0

9 games on their I'm interested in. No problem with names I just want quality games with reasonable innovation. Exciting IMO. Thid skepticism reminds me of the pre-Wii and pre-DS era

Yeah its still SEGA version of Nintendo's Diddy Kong Racing! Anyway, insta-buy unless its a disaster

Easily amongst the top 20 GB games

Used to own 1 to 3 back in the old days. The first outing was the best. If good, may get it

Yeah I downloaded it as I like the whole customise your own puzzle game idea. However, it is way undercooked. The reviewer is spot on in that with much more customisation optioons and styles it would have been really good. I actually hope they try again with all this in mind. What was there was decentish. Think a 6/10 for me

Still no Rhythm Thief or Spongebob Squigglepnats for the 3DS

So they release this for the 3DS and Tekken Tag Tournament 2 for the HD consoles. The 3DS game is quite decent but that isn't good from Namco Bandai IMHO

I like the looks of this
