I will wait until next year before even thinking about getting it at those prices!

@FluttershyGuy
We still have Official Nintendo Magazine in the UK. Nintendo Gamer was kind of a sister mag to them, but I personally preferred the un-biased reviews they gave.
It's a very sad day indeed

Noooo! I'm a subscriber!!!!
I cannot stand the official Nintendo Magazine, what am I going to read now!!

Joco84 commented on Nintendo Download: 23rd August 2012 (Europe):
All I ever see on the Vote Results is the vast majority going with "None for me this week".This cannot continue, Nintendo need to seriously up their game (pardon the pun).
It can't be that hard to get NES, SNES, GBA, N64 games onto the system. Heck, ROMs have been going round for years. Sort it out Ninty!

Why do we get shafted in the UK, it's on Amazon for over £22! That's nearly double what the US pay! FFS!!!

I think I would sh*t my pants if RS2 or Rebel Strike (RS3) came to 3DS. My favourite games in GC era!

Joco84 commented on Nintendo to Offer Triple Layer of Miiverse Mod...:
I reckon a forum model is good enough to stop people from offending others.
The ability for others to "report" offensive content or spoilers should be enough. I don't see the need for 30 minutes to review.

Joco84 commented on Gearbox: "Wii U is a Powerful, Powerful Machine":
WiiU launch game and a timed exclusive me thinks, with the PS3/360 versions out in 2013.

Joco84 commented on Review: Mario Tennis Open (3DS):
This was a day one for me, until I started reading reviews.
I've read 5 reviews now and all say the same thing; good but could be a lot better.
I'm disappointed and will probably give it a miss unfortunately.
Back to RE:Revelations and KI:Uprising I go!

Joco84 commented on Talking Point: DS Games Deserve Digital Distri...:
Good idea, but I've got just too many 3DS games to play at the moment, not to mention all the Ambassador games!
#15
Joco84 commented on Nintendo Download: 3rd May 2012 (North America):
Just as well I've got Kid Icarus, RE:Revelations, Ace Combat, Shinobi and RE:Mercenaries, Pullblox, Mighty Switch Force and Dillon's Rolling Western to finish!

Joco84 commented on Iwata Defends Identical Digital and Retail Prices:
I will not make a download purchase of a retail game, unless the price is at least 80% cheaper.
I'm all for getting a bargain, but I also like physical copies of games. If I'm not getting the incentive to change to download, they can kiss my rear!

Joco84 commented on Pre-Order Kingdom Hearts 3D, Get Free AR Cards:
already pre-ordered when it was £23.50 - can't wait!

Joco84 commented on Remixed Pilotwings Soundtrack Takes Flight:
Awesome, loved this game back in the day!

Joco84 commented on Nintendo Still Envisions Selling Retail Games ...:
providing they'd sell at a competitive price, I'd be happy to purchase some games digitally.
#20
Joco84 commented on The U.S. Sales Results are in for Nintendo:
I cannot get used to any of the control schemes in Kid Icarus: Uprising.
I have tried right-handed, left-handed, but still find the whole "move with the stylus" clunky and inaccurate - despite getting to chapter 10.
Once I complete the single player, I cannot see me playing it much more and will look at selling it on.

Joco84 commented on Feature: The Evolving Role of Swapnote:
I don't really find it useful - painfully slow and people use it to write pointless messages about their weekends!

Joco84 commented on Review: Nano Assault (3DS):
Saw this on the US Amazon store last month going for around £8, I think I'll wait for it to come down in price before making a purchase.

I wish we still had the old GamesMaster on our screens. Used to love it with Patrick Moore, Dominic Diamond and Dexter Flecther!

Joco84 commented on 3DS Celebrates First Birthday in Japan:
I play my 3DS every day, more than any other system I've played before.
Not that I'm complaining, but I've got too many games to play on it right now!
#34
Joco84 commented on Review: Dillon's Rolling Western (3DSWare):
I'm a bit hesitant due to being left-handed and not enjoying my time with Kid Icarus demo last year.
Might have to unfortunately give this one a miss, unless I play a demo of it first.

@Luigifan141 my thoughts exactly, the AR things seems a bit gimmicky

Picross DS and Picross 3D for DS were two of my favourite puzzle games - can't wait for the new one.
No VVVVVV, Sakura Samurai and Cave Story really annoys me though!!!

@Groovius mate, you've got VVVVVV, Sakura Samurai, Mutant Mudds and Cave Story - games that the UK/EUR zone are STILL waiting for.

"Also, buy a 3DS and software from the ground-floor GAME and you'll get a £10 eShop voucher, which isn't half bad."
No.... they'll only charge £40 more than online retailers would though!

Joco84 commented on Nicalis: "The eShop Has Turned Things Around f...:
I believe that Nintendo need to take the eShop further and make it more user friendly.
I know that they like to be different with their stuff, but it needs to be easier to search for new stuff and not confusing sections of games that come under categories such as "games that would be ideal while trapped inside a box".
They need to have simple sections like:
I dread each week going onto the eShop. I shouldn't feel that way, but I do unfortunately. They need to be able for people to find what they're looking for quicker - not searching random places for games they might enjoy.
