Nintendo Download: 12th September (Europe)

My €10 is safe for another week.

Was waiting for a discount on toki tori, so almost half price and a big update? No brainer for me!

@SilentHunter382 save it for Windwaker HD

Awesome! I've been wanting to play Toki Tori 2 again & now I have a great reason to Will look forward to the review of D&D too.

Toki is tempting, but I did just make my first eshop retail purchase in Rayman Origins so I don't think I can justify it right now.

3DS eshop is dead this week...

Another sad week for 3DS owners.

Is that hard to release ONE vc game each week? The Nintendo way...

Is it so hard to plan ahead so there is at least one 3DS VC release each week? Nintendo are actually idiots, I'm not asking for gba or snes games, I understand that they would eat away at sales of older VC titles and even new eshop releases atm but I just want at least a single game for the systems the VC is currently supporting GAH!!

Confused here, will people who have already purchased Toki Tori 2 get the update for free or is the "Plus" version totally separate and a new purchase required? Thanks,

I f I had a 3DS i would definetely get Sonic Generations

Wow awful 3DS week!

D&D for me... =)

Still waiting for Picross-e3.

A sad week for Europe, hope we get good stuff this week in NA.

Might update Super Mario Bros.

Oooh, want all of the Wii U items, but am currently saving up for a 3DS so nothing from me for a while...

Nothing at all. Bummer! Wake me when they realise Mario Bros Deluxe GBC then we will talk!

@Randomname19 And you would definitely be disappointed

What about that Epic Mickey Power of Illusion permanent discount announced last week? I was about to buy it and it was still 45€...

@ThomasBW84

Thanks for the clarification Thomas.

I'll upgrade my Wii SMB on to the Wii U this week.

Nothing for me this week. Super Mario Bros. isn't worth playing, and I'm not that interested in Dungeons and Dragons, but £19.99 is a decent price for Sonic Generations for anyone yet to get it. Why can't Nintendo release GBA, N64 or Gamecube games instead of all this NES crap?

Sonic Generations is £10 physical and fairly readily available.

I might get Mystara. And the Toki Tori 2 update I guess, even thought I feel pretty done with the game (which was great, btw).

Actually, after looking into D & D a bit more, it reminds of Golden Axe, which I enjoyed. Consider my curiosity piqued.

In starting to wonder if we'll ever see N64 games on the VC

Where is cave story + ???

@LavaTwilight So do I - its unique in that when you have played it too much there is still the Lost Levels. (Still not done the secret worlds on that).

@LavaTwilight The people who dont want to download smb are probably the same people who downloaded it for the 3ds...and the wii...and bought it for the snes...and nes...and played it to absolute death in the arcades. So I see their point.

I have SMB for NES, SNES (all-stars version), Wii (all-stars version), 3DS (NES version). That's enough for me.
I shall be playing something from my backlog instead.

@LavaTwilight im not telling you to be sick of the game mate. Its great that you enjoy a game that much. I personally have bought super mario world 4 times in my life,but I love that game. Im just saying most people wont share the view to repurchase something they already have on a diferent system

Ok if Toki Toris price falls below 9$ (what I have on my Wii Us wallet) on the U.S., I will rush towards it.

Still no SEGA 3D classics, ages since I bought anything on the e-shop. I pretty much just get get things on PSN these days, they have really good sales on there (got King of Fighters XIII for £5.99 at the weekend), and an account system makes it a better option for me.

Just reading this wondering why Sonic Generations is cheaper here than America on eShop.

I'm getting so bored with NES games. We get it, Nintendo. They exist. Like, there's no break from getting them on the 3DS to the Wii U. Totally boring.

Fantastic week! Holy wow! Toki Tori 2 is one of the best Indie games on the Wii U so this will give me an excuse to play it again. Plus, my copy of Mario will get update. And finally, my favourite Arcade game of all time finally comes to my preferred system!

@ThomasBW84 - I know the US get's its own post but can you please spill the beans on Toki Tori 2+ for the US? I've been waiting for the update before we buy it, and if it's at a discount that's even better. Actually I've been waiting for the editor, not the +. Does + include the editor? Do we have to wait until the review Thursday to find all this out? The suspense is killing me

@ThomasBW84 - Thank you kind sir.

I will update SMB from VC to eshop, also Toki Tori 2 looks like a good deal. I like these discounts as so far I've picked up Nano Assault and Trine 2 for a song. Happy Days!

Does anyone know if D&D has had all the bugs fixed?

Woohoo Super Mario Bros. on the Wii U!!! - Super Mario. Bros 3 is due out in a month or two - finally the whole quadrilogy of games on the Wii U - so awesome

Still no news on flipnote 3d

@RainbowGazelle SMB isn't worth playing?! Really? Wow. That's harsh. It's kind of a genre-defining classic. I respect you don't like it, but that doesn't mean it's not worth a go.

SMB is totally worth playing. Enjoy, Europe, when I finally get a 3DS XL I can join in on Nintendo Download excitement.

I'll possibly get D&D, and I'll also get the Toki Tori 2 update as well as I bought the game back at launch.

Don't think it's such a bad week in the grand scheme of things.

@RainbowGazelle I guess it depends if you can get past the first level or not?

Mario Bros & Toki Toki + since its on discount and havn't brought it yet. Still got to get Ducktales aswell.
After buying Toki Toki will have enough Premium reward points to earn £5 so thats something.

D&D is a must buy, easily two of the best, if not THE best arcade beat em ups ever. And it took them that long to release SMB again ? I never really noticed that it was still missing. Its Nintendos answer to "Doom runs on everything"

@RainbowGazelle All this NES crap ? I dont know about you but the NES has FAR more really good games than the N64 for instance, which doesnt mean that the N64s library is bad, no way. But SMB is still one of the best platformers you can get for that money.

Pass, on everything. If only super mario bros was in 3D,.

The D&D games are great if you haven't played them. Drop in play is a really nice feature too which matches the arcade yet for the 21st century. I've played the games a lot so not for me but still good.

Why is there always a litany of "awful week" comments on the weekly download update posts? It's a a slow drip of titles, what exactly are people expecting?

@SkywardCrowbar
It's a fair point, I prefer to be drip feed. Last week I got EOIV and now Im too busy with it to even think about anything else!

If Super Mario Bros. is set to come out in the US this week too, you can bet I'm updating it.

Diddly squat again for me this week.

Hopefully this Toki Tori 2 update also comes to the US this week. I started this game last week, yet I bought it a long time ago and left it there.

Needs more Megaman X. Where exactly is it?

@Einherjar I personally found it too hard and boring, but I suppose calling it crap is a bit harsh. I just don't get why it receives so much praise. I suppose, for the time it was great, but I wouldn't regard it as one of the best games ever made.
@Cohort Yeah, I've just about managed that. XD
@sleepinglion What I really meant was that Nintendo seem to be releasing the same stuff over and over again. I just want a bit of variety.

@RainbowGazelle Are you talking about D&D or SMB ? In both cases, i was talking about them beeing on top of their respective genre, so "hard and repetetive" would be genre defining tropes for arcade beat em ups These games were made to make you go bankrupt in the arcades. They are hard so that you spend money on extra continues. In case of SMB, i wouldnt call it neither hard nor boring. It is a bit bland when compared to future platformers, but for its time, it was a force to be reckoned with and really stood the test of time in that it is perfectly playable even to this day.
But either way, its a matter of opinion. I also find certain games / genres boring and bland that get praised to heaven by many other people

Fair enough. I was referring to SMB, but as you said I'm sure there are games I love that you hate.

What NES stuff is left that is the best version. (i.e not better on PC Engine)
or an inferior arcade port.

Crisis Force / RECCA / DuckTales (I&II) / Megaman (All of them) / Castlevania III / Super Mario Bros / Super Mario Bros - Lost Levels / Super Mario Bros 3 / Zelda 2 / Crystalis / Zanac / Gargoyles Quest 2

(GBC Crystalis is better but it is a NES game and I think I would get either version).

Think Master System - Power Strike 2 is better than any NES game.
