Nintendo Download: 31st October (North America)

I'm getting Super Castlevania IV and the AiRace Speed demo.

Nothing for me yet again...STILL waiting for SMB3.

Ah, I didn't see that demo. Well I guess that'll be it for me this week.

I'm still enjoying Pokemon, so I'm good.

ive been waiting to play castlevania on the gmepad!!!

looking forward to wii fit u as well but i need to get a balance board first

Haven't seen the zombiu discount in europe yet, this is supposed to be happening today right?

Nintendo is really spooking up the holiday with the scariest thing of all........ EXERCISE!

Finally, Lego Marvel gets a download. People on Miiverse have been asking for one since the U.S. release.

If you're a Marvel fan, or a Lego fan, do not miss this game. I've become hopelessly addicted to it. As a lover of all things Marvel, this is easily the best Marvel video game I've ever played. I completed the story, and I'm still unlocking characters and vehicles, and enjoying activities in the massive game world.

I can safely say, that this is currently my favorite game of the year.

I thought Toki Tori was going to be today?
I am disappoint.

Man, if that Arcade Classics game has to brag about being "playable" I'm terrified.

@SirGreatNose Good to hear. My son really wants this game, and I am trying to get past my "I won't buy anything Disney has its fingers in" stance. On another note, I am a huge DC fan, I only like Ghost Rider, Moon Knight and Captain America from Marvel. Everyone in the USA have a fun and safe Halloween.

@MrWalkieTalkie Its great that it comes out before Halloween night so that parents can work off all of the candy that they stole from their kids the next day. I believe the Wii Fit U trial lasts a month so it should be good for the Thanksgiving food too.

@SirGreatNose - have you played Lego City Undercover and how does it compare? Me and my 4 year old are having a blast with Lego City so I'm thinking maybe this would be a good present

Nothing for me.

Oh, and sorry. Just because something can be had for free doesn't mean the one you have to pay for is awful. It might be even better than the free thing.

Still no Sonic Lost World!?

@Gerbwmu
It's like Lego City with more of everything. Quite a few people on Miiverse are calling it the best Lego game yet.

@Sonic1994CD Sonic lost world has been released already. 2 days ago.

Too bad I couldn't pick two, as it's Super Castlevania IV and Wii Fit U for me. I just noticed Trine 2 is also on discount (9.99), but it may have already been and I just overlooked it.

@Gerbwmu yeah I am going to say it is a step above Undercover which was the best lego game until now. The offscreen co-op alone is worth it.

I am hoping with marvel hitting the eshop finally we can start getting dlc access, which we all know are really just on disc unlocks of characters but I do not care, I want Dark Phoenix

I'll just be enjoying the Wii VC version of Super Castlevania IV for now.

@SirGreatNose Does Lego Marvel have off-TV play on the gamepad?

Angry Bunnies? Really? What a load of rubbish.

Wii Fit U because I can get the Fit Meter for free on Amazon using my Gift Cards that i've been given... SO I GET THE FULL GAME FOR FREE!!

BTW do I have to sinc the meter with the game during the trial or can I do it after the trial? (ie: if Amazon are late delivering my fit meter and my trial period is up, can I still unlock the full game once the meter arrives?)

@MERG Yes it does

@antipop621 Thanks!

So no Toki Tori then?

Lego Marvel Super Heroes

Super Castlevania IV.. a time when Konami and Capcom used to make awesome games!

Wii Fit U & Super Castlevania! and possibly LEGO Marvel Superheroes if they do finally release it on the Wii U eShop!

@Philip_J_Reed: Guess that's the halloween trick on the NLife staff. I guess the treat will have to be Super Castlevania.

@everyone (else): I'll get the demos this week. I've got (probably more than) enough memory on my 3DS sd card. I may peruse the e-Shop, & d/l something, if I see anything I want that I can afford. I don't own a WU yet, but if I ever do, I definitely get physical copies of all my games, that can be purchased at retail.

Anyway, I digress. So, everyone God bless, enjoy your gaming, & stay safe this halloween.

Getting the Marvel game! My daughter has been asking for it as she loves LEGO and superheroes--she's going to be the Flash tonight so she go super fast and get as much candy as possible. She's a big fan of the LEGO City game as she likes making traffic jams with busses and what not.

@tebunker @SirGreatNose - Thanks for the info!

@mariobro4 I'm talking about the demo.

Super Casltevania IV!!!

Keep the VC games games coming Konami!

The wait for Mega Man continues...

Wii fit U is going to bomb. Ha ha ha. Look at that picture!

I just downloaded the lego demo on 3ds.

@Kirbybrawl how is it?!! I'm not at home yet...

Alright, another NES game for the 3DS VC! NA just needs 2 more 3DS NES VC games(River City Ransom & City Connection) to catch up to EU. I'm grabbing Milon's Secret Castle and both demos for the 3DS.

@Everybody: Don't forget to order your 3DS XL charging cradle from Club Nintendo today! They're available right now, get one before they are gone!

Still have my balance board, so will be downloading Wii Fit U!

@KnightRider666 Dang, too late :/

Do Cypronia seriously expect people to pay $9 for Angry Bunnies?

Angry bunnies is so expensive! the only thing that looks good is 3d arcade games, but I won't waste my money on it.

@X-Factor: Too late? They are still available.

Got Arcade classics 3D for free!

Today would have been a good day for Capcom to put a sale on Ghost 'n Goblins and Super Ghouls 'n Ghosts. Just saying'

STILL no Super Mario Bros. 3? What a joke.

Does anyone know how much space lego marvel takes up on wii u? Thanks

Just in case it wasn't clear I meant The download version

Nothing new for me this week. If I have the Wii U, I'll get Runner 2, but I don't.

Still waiting for Super Mario Bros. 3.

Power Rangers Megaforce?
I doubt it can be as good as the Megaforce that is in Space.

I didn't notice, so Milon is indeed the NES version and not the Game Boy?
Good choice, given a choice I guess we don't need the smaller resolution version to give us an extra challenge?

Already have the Fit Meter ordered from Amazon. Really glad to not have to keep the disc handy for this one.

@KnightRider666 When I logged in, it said currently unavailable

Super Castlevania IV IS the peak of the franchise!!! No opposition here. You need to go no further than the intro of Dracula returning from the grave, to the tune of creepy music, to know you're in for a treat!

I hope the Halloween attention on it reminds long-time gamers, and shows first-time players how great Castlevania can be, and could be again in the right hands!

@X-Factor: Wow, no f*cking way! I must have been in time by a mere 30 mins! They gotta have a second batch coming soon, keep an eye out.

I bought Milon's Secret Castle for $37 at Children's Palace on clearance (!!!) back in 1989. I still have it, and my NES is still hooked up to play. That game is awesome. Cute, charming, and even quite frustrating to play, though I still love it. I must have spent some 200+ hours playing that over the last couple decades. Definitely want it on my 3DS

I wish Wii U would get a Lego Marvel demo as well.

@KnightRider666 They are gone I overslept this morning and at 11am they were sold out I'm sad. Today will be bad for windy no charging cradle and I get to go to my doctor for blood work nooooooo........lol

@Philip_J_Reed By playable, I believe they mean the controls are a puzzle in itself, which causes the action of you shooting your 3ds. And all in one purchase!

I'll be paying my $1 to upgrade my Wii version of Super Castlevania IV to the Wii U version for sure. One of my favorite games of all time. I'm also curious about Milon's Secret Castle. I remember having it and liking it on NES when I was young. But I do also remember having some issues with it. But it has been so long I don't remember much more than that. So I'm interested in how it holds up. Enough to buy it? Probably not. If I don't remember it fondly as a classic, I don't see myself getting it.
I'll try out the demos though. And I'm tempted to get Runner 2 for that price. I love the demo and the first Runner game.

I really wish ZombiU would go on sale...

@gojiguy 41.99$ on eShop. Cheap at retail sotres and Amazon

I need a Balance Board and Fit Meter...
Anyone know where to get a cheap Balance Board??

Milons Secret Castle.

damn i didnt know TI had a balance board!

How many gb does lego marvel superheroes download take up on wii u?

I'll get my Wii Fit U game trial but I will need to order the fit meter and sinc before the 31 day of use, I'm happy with it and waiting for Wii Sport Club!!

@Darknyht same here!!

@Windy: They still had them at 1pm Eastern standard time, that's when I ordered both of mine? Are you Mountain or Pacific standard time? They sold out within an hour and a half. I can almost guarantee they will have a 2nd run for people who didn't have the chance to get it. If they don't, I'm sure a lot of people will complain. I'm lucky I woke up at little after 1pm considering I work over nites until 8am. Good luck with your blood work, and keep checking back daily on Club Nintendo to see if and when they become available again.

So many games, so few choices...where are the N64 and Gamecube games???

@SirGreatNose
So you're a fan of Lego Marvel Super Heroes... let me ask you something: The game looks good to me, but what turned me off is the "press A" to execute every action imaginable. I watched a substantial bit of gameplay footage and trailers, but I noticed the gameplay did not look challenging whatsoever, and again, almost everything you do in the game is accomplished through one button, or repeatedly mashing that button. Can you confirm or deny my presumptions for me?

@Cohort
I think both Konami and Capcom still have alot going for them tbh. I mean, Konami still does Metal Gear Solid (MGS4 was great, and MGS5 is looking even better) and Castlevania (Mirror of Fate was great imo, and from what I hear, the LoS series on PS are decent games).

And Capcom still has the one of the greatest franchises ever, Monster Hunter (MH3U is by far my favorite game of all time, and MH4 looks almost as good, maybe even just as good). They also have Resident Evil which, say what you will, but Revelations was fantastic on 3DS, and I'm anxious to see what they're going to do next.

I was getting tired of my old wii fit, so i'm excited to get my hands on the new one.

I'll be picking up Wii Fit U and Super Castlevania IV. I'm tempted by Lego Marvel but I think I'll buy it at retail.

@gojiguy
Zombi U is $17 at Target, so if they are selling it new for that price then other stores probably do as well.

Nothing for me for like the 7th week in a row.

What the heck? I voted angry bunnies and it shows zero percent. Did my vote even count?

Anyone in need of a balance board, I saw the local GameStop selling used ones for 19.99.

@JaxonH
I wouldn't call it challenging either, not that it detracts from the fun at all.

There are quite a few puzzles, some are head scratchers, most are not.

There is way more combat in this game than previous Lego games. Each character has two attacks, and two more if you hold those buttons down, and can jump, fly or shrink. The levels are really fun and represent the marvel universe like no other game before it. Including places not seen in games until now.

Exploring the open world collecting vehicles, characters, quests and activities give an obscene amount of value to the game. Just when you think you've seen everything, something might happen, like a Sentinel drops out of the sky to attack you.

No, your gaming skills won't be pushed to the limit, but if you're a fan of Marvel or Lego, your ship ( or Fantasticar ) has just come in.

The characters alone are worth the price of admission. Heck I was running around with Antman and Wasp... just because. Black Bolt is here for cripes sake! Archangel... the list is huge. Not even mentioning custom heroes.

Challenging, no. Fun, you betcha!

After Reading the comments I decided to download lego marvel superheroes, slooooooooow progress bar.

Wii Fit U! I'll be searching every store I can for that Fit Meter come tomorrow. I don't care about any trial, I need Wii Fit U!

Wait, so if I don't have a wii fit board, I shouldn't download the game, right? There is no way I can find a board. I just feel like Nintendo is really doing nothing to get the word out or explain anything, and I'm finally starting to get sick of it.

Fantastic month for NA!

I'll be getting both demos for 3DS. And hopefully Origins Blackgate soon.

@ThomasBW84

That pun for Angry Bunnies was pure brilliance!

Wii Fit U and AiRace Demo for me. Better than nothing, though Nintendo isnt making any money off me this week.

Guys, get Lego Marvel. I don't like any of the other Lego games, but my gosh this one is amazing!

D*mn eShop, way to let me down on my birthday. Oh well, at least Pokemon X is still keeping me busy ^_^

@JaxonH I didn't say that they weren't still relevant, they just don't make as many awesome games anymore, compare now to back in the day and there's no comparison really.

The fact that Capcom are in big trouble, kinda tells you all you need to know.

@Cohort Gotchya.

I have mixed feelings about Capcom. They were like Nintendo to me growing up, but they continually refuse to bring the good stuff to the region or console they should. And still waiting for a new side scrolling Mega Man... But MH3U redeems them for me. It's bittersweet :/

@JaxonH Capcom and Konami were two of my favourite companies like EVER. just feels like something's been lost along the way, MH is awesome but you could name multiple awesome Capcom games back then, same with Konami really..

It makes you realise how well Nintendo have done over the years to protect their franchises..

N64 games please. Comeon nintendo ! Im dying to play mario 64 on my gamepad

"available at retail in various colours from the same date as this download" I don't think we are getting various colors (at least in America) the only ones Ive seen are all black (standalone), and a white one advertised in the retail game box images.

really!? are you kidding me!? milons secret castle for 3DS virtual console!? this would have been the perfect opprotunity to add another castlevania game to the 3DS virtual console, instead we get the worst hudson soft game ever made!. who is the idiot that chose the games for 3ds virtual console anyway?!
