This looks like it might be fun. Just wish I would have seen that it's not scheduled for an EU release before I read the review. (I always get my hopes up for games like this, and then they never make it to my region.)
This is a game I really wanted. But I didn't think it would ever come out here. They problem was getting your Miis to be able to read and speak English. Oh well.
I love the Lego games, but dang! I'm so behind on them. Lego Batman 2 last Summer, Lego Lord of the Rings at Christmas, and I'm currently working on Lego City Undercover. All these games are HUGE. There's just not enough hours in the day.
I've been living in England for nearly 11 years, and I have only ever bought 1 CD there and that is because I was near one on the day the CD was released. The shops just are over priced and unpleasant to shop in. Whenever I go in one, I wonder around for a bit, take a look at the video games, and walk back out empty handed. (And I used to spend HOURS shopping for music and video games.) HMV just never stores never made me want to stay and look around for a great bargin or rare find. I am very saddened for all the job loss, especially since there has been so much of it in my area lately. But I won't miss the shop itself.
I'd probably give that a go. I already order films from them, and they often sit around for a week or so before I actually get around to watching them. So this might be a good option.
Wow! Impressive!! I didn't read the whole review because I'm waiting to discover it for myself. But I'm happy that you guys gave it a 9/10 stars. I'm really looking forward to it now.
I'm getting kind of bummed out by all the spoilers of the game yet we still have no release date. I've had to stop watching the videos or looking at screen shots or else there will be nothing new to discover in the game at all.
I just love seeing that Toki Tori bird. To me he is the cutest gaming character. Long after I finished playing Toki Tori I still have him on my Wii's main screen just because he's so cute! He always makes me smile.
I would have loved this back in the mid-80s when I got into computing and programming. I used to spend days trying to do the simplist of drawings, and writing apps to do tasks for me. There was no-one to share my work with because I didn't know anyone else who had a computer. But I don't know if I'd have the time to do it now. I would really love to see what you guys could do though. And since software can be shared with QR codes, if this comes to the UK I might just get it to see what my friends have done with it.
They haven't had anything good in EU's Club Nintendo in a very long time. Those people complaining that we're getting something here that you're not getting in your region should stop and take a look at the junk available in EU. My friends in NA are always going on about the great things they picked up with their points. Yet my Nintnedo points are piling up because there's nothing worth getting with them. For a long time the only thing I ever picked up were Wii Point cards. In NA you guys talk about different levels of rewards, but they don't even do that here. So it's nice that we're finally offered something decent.
That'll put them in competition. Before the 3DS came out the prices kept dropping from store to store. I changed my mind 3 times about where I was going to buy mine. So that'll be good news for us. We can just keep watching to see how it goes.
In that case I'd rather buy the retail version as I'm keeping the shop open and keeping someone employed. And when I finish a game and find I will never play it again, I can sell it on (or even GIVE it away) so someone else can enjoy it.
That's pretty cool. It was neat checking the map to see what's available nearest to me. Not that I need it, but it's always fun checking Letter Box for messages and sending notes with snapshots of what I'm up to that day.
That was really nice! I just love these episodes we're getting. They are such a joy to watch. I've played each one a few times and would gladly pay for them if it meant we could keep them. Hopefully folks in other regions will get to see them, too.
I waited a year for Inchworm and it comes out on the heals of Colors 3DS, which I'd much rather have. Their loss as far as I'm concerned. They waited too long and I've lost interest. No-one I know in NA is still using it, so I won't be getting it - at least not any time soon.
What doesn't help is not really having a shop that stocks the games! I would have bought Mario Party 9 when I had money to burn, but Game didn't stock it. So instead I ended up buying an old DS game and a few computer games. When I finish playing those I'll get Mario Party though Amazon, and maybe by then there'll be a price drop.
I really wish more people would carry around their 3DS so I could get more actual Street Passes. At the rate we get new puzzles I'll never complete them.
@Portista - The message says: Hello! I'm Satoru Shibata from Nintendo of Europe. We'll present a new Nintendo Direct! on 21st April 1pm CET Please check EUR Ninteno Site. I hope that you'll enjoy it!! even if my English is not good ..... (then he drew a smiley face.)
FINALLY!! After all this time. I'd honestly given up on it. But no fair finally releasing here at such a higher cost and just after Colors 3DS. I'm waiting till payday to get Colors, so this one's gonna have to wait longer. @Morpheel - Though... after what you said, I might wait a lot longer. I didn't realize that you didn't get into it?
The Shaun the Sheep videos are brilliant. I watch all of them a couple of times knowing that they're only available for a week. I'd gladly buy them if it were an option to keep them. As for this weeks downloads I'm getting Colours! Glad it actually came out here.
Birmingham is a bit of a drive for me as well .... but oh! to be one of the first 3 in to get the free game! LOL... What a joke. I wouldn't mind going though just to see if I could get some Street Passes.
How sad I went there at the weekend to spend the last of my credit voucher and cashed in my loyality points. I figured it was coming, but even then it was quicker than I thought it would be.
