News Fantasy Life Online Comes Out In English On iOS And Android Today
It's not Fantasy Life 2, but we'll take it!
After Level-5's wonderful cult classic Fantasy Life came out on 3DS, and blew us all away with its depth, heart, and charm, it was a little disappointing to find out that the sequel would be a mobile-only game called Fantasy Life Online. It was even more disappointing to find out that it was only destined...
Soapbox Playdate Sold Out In 20 Minutes - Is It Time For A New Nintendo Handheld?
The Game Boy... 2
Many of us at Nintendo Life have been patiently, excitedly waiting for the Playdate to go on sale, because we're suckers for bits of colourful plastic. Well, it did, and we missed it, because all 20,000 initial units (for the 2021 batch, at least) sold out in just 20 minutes. [Not all of us missed it! - smug Ed] It's hardly...
Feature Our Predictions For Nintendo's E3 2021 Direct
Switch Pro, BOTW2, and high, high hopes
It's been a long, weird year, but E3 is back after last year's COVID cancellation. It's still a digital event, as we're not out of the woods yet, but that means we'll be seeing all the big names on the (virtual) stage again. But will Nintendo give us everything we've hoped for, or will we be left a little...

The latest batch of My Nintendo game discounts for Europe has now gone live, giving players the usual chance to grab a handful of games at discounted prices.

Please come out for USA
Please come to the US!
This is one of the reasons I bought a 3DS. Pleeease make it happen Level-5!!
Oh dear, I'd really love to play this. Here's hoping to an international release!
Looking forward to this as well. Hoping it is released in the US.
PLEEZ COME OUT!
Wauw seems great!
Please come to europe, really, really, really looking forward to it!!
Oh god this game looks so fun I just love the art style! I really hope it comes to NA and the EU!!!
I would so buy this instead of Animal Crossing. I'm sold.
Same Idea, if this has online play then im sooo getting it
Looks like the expansion has multiplayer. Hope the expansion is included if it releases here.
I really want this game.
Bring it!
Why does this have a 2013 release date for USA and EU? As far as I know, localization for this game hasn't been announced yet.
Come on Japan send it here to USA so I can play. I want to be a blacksmith. This should have came out because I would play this more than animal crossing. Animal crossing was fun but no rpg action or fighting so it got really boring fast. It's an animal crossing, rune factory, and harvest moon put together that's what makes it so fun!
i hope this will come to europe 2013! please make this happen. this is a game im much more into than animal crossing. dont get me wrong. i have played around 40 hours of animal crossing but FL will probably be 100 + hours!! =)
Damm any news on Fantasy Life to US !!
Please bring it to the US !!!
Come to Us in europe! i´m hoping for a world wide release, just to be fair with you all
usa, usa, usa
Ugh this needs to come out in the U.S at least before they say anything about a sequel.
Something is really wrong if this game doesn't get ported to Europe and North America.
@Windy Agreed.
Any new news on this game coming to America ?
Fingers forever crossed until this game is in my hands.
WHEN!?
(2013 has already been and gone...)
WHERE IS IT!? I have waited so long for this amazing game where is it every time I play Animal Crossing New Leaf I feel like Fantasy life is mocking me!
Coming 2014!
At this point I'm about to give up all hope for this game.. but in the even it does ever come out I would drop everything im doing and get it.
I'm with you Tigus, I lost hope too.
But hej, maybe a sequel of the game can make it out of Japan.
If there will be one, who knows?
Lose hope for this one, but leave some for the rest
I'm still hoping ANY version to come to America, gods... I'd pay 2 times for this....
It's weird that no one has commented since E3.
This game caught my attention during E3, first time hearing about it
Wow, comments dating back to 2011... Glad I just heard about it at E3, or that would have been a long wait!
When I watched E3 and saw this game it really caught my attention. I'm glad it's getting a release, I can't wait to play it.
I would do free advertising for this game if asked ( already do on AC:NL's island ).
There goes my money.
Does anyone see or know of the Miiverse for this game in japan?
Just read the other info about the game , hope that it will be release in US
Can't wait to get this, love Level 5 and I love RPG series so this game will be my child for a while <3
I just got this, and I have to say I really like it!
I just got this, and I have to say I really like it!
I preordered this last month and can't wait till I get it next Friday. Though this is just one game I preordered recently. I also preordered HM: The Lost Valley, both Pokèmon Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire, and Story of Seasons. Even though I preorderd all of those I am anticipating this one the most (even if it is partially because I don't have anything to play right now). If anyone in America wants to watch some gameplay of this I recommend watching LinandKo's videos.
Tomorrow is the big day in the US! Got my "shipped" notification from Amazon this morning! SO EXCITED! 8D
@thehoppypoppy I know cant wait my copy shipped out yesterday and arrive tomorrow.
Here's a little question. Who else is getting the DLC tomorrow?
Getting mine off the eshop in less then 4 hours
Got the game yesterday and haven't stopped playing.
I have the digital version,and I LOVE IT!!I haven't stopped playing it since I bought it..I started as a Paladin,moved on to Wizard,and now am a Mercenary..I think it's so cool that you can "job hop" or you can stay with one life..I love everything about this game,and so far haven't seen anything I didn't like
Help. I've been switching live until I've mastered them all. I've made it to Legendary Wizard and would like to make my Woodcutter legend as well. I'm trying to complete some of the challenges I started before I left the woocutter life but they aren't registering. I have 2/3 elder sugar logs, have chopped several more, turned in the bounty, all as a woodcutter but the challenge is stuck on 2/3. Same thing for elder fir log challenge but when I tried the lava tree challenge, it registered. Any suggestions?
Hey! Does anyone want to do some multiplayer with me sometime?! My f.c. 4527-8433-6300
This game is fantastic, but I wish the online multiplayer wasn't region locked. I made a petition, if you all want to sign it. I really don't know why they region locked it, without that, the game would be perfect. This is the kind of game my Japanese friend and I would like to play together.
http://www.ipetitions.com/petition/fantasy-life-online-multiplayer-region-lock
Just picked up this game and so happy there is an RPG on the 3DS that is not complicated and so much fun to play and level up your skill
I know it's been YEARS but.. this game deserves a sequel!!!
Once I read this game is basically "Skyrim for 3DS" and since then I was thinking about trying it. And approximately a week ago I did so aaand... I am circa 30 hours in and it is really addicting!
Anyone still play this game? I played it a lot single player but don't have anyone else yo play it with.
I still play it
It's essentially a kid-friendly Skyrim, minus the ability to murder people.
