Nintendo Download: 15th May (Europe)

100% nothing. Seems fitting!

Wow, smallest amount of downloads that I recall.

Scram Kitty and maybe Kirby..if I can afford it that is.

Scram Kitty and Kirby for sure.

Scram kitty and Kirby retail for me.

Fancy Kirby but will get retail - May wait a while as have backlog though and am addicted to Mario Golf at the moment

Meh, nothing for me for the 2nd(or 3rd) straight week.

It's the first time I saw only 5 games to vote for. And Nintendo Life is early to post the Nintendo Download article for EU today in a long time.

Wasn't the Wii U port of Swords & Soldiers supposed to be coming this week?

@Mahe They pushed it to the 22nd a few weeks back.

Conception seemed fun in the demo (despite the horrible dub still making me shiver >.<), but too many titles coming soon that I'm more interested into, sorry Atlus ^_^;

Can't wait to read the review of Scram Kitty, that game teased us for so long that it's impossible to not be curious about it XP

I'm absolutely getting SCRAM KITTY! The fantastic review it got in ONM, the launch trailer, the new gameplay video, just about everything seems to indicate that this is a really good indie title. Looking forward to the NL review and to actually be able to finally play that game!

If it's as fun as I remember from Eurogamer Expo last year, Scram Kitty will be an instant buy.

Scram Kitty looks so original and silly that I need to try it out!

Everybody just needs to get Scram Kitty I feel

@Mahe It's delayed, but REALLY cheap. Under £3 according to the eshop.

Mr Driller 2??!!?? I'd rather have an HD localised port of Mr. Driller Drill Land, but any driller is good driller. Scram Kitty is also a must!x

Scram kitty Indies are on a role at the moment xp I've bought an indie game each week for the last three weeks, looks to continue aswell with swords and soldiers and armillo on the horizon wonder where telsgrad has got to?

Terrible week again, such a small list. Where are the VC games Nintendo!?!

Sick of buying Indie games, either on Wii U 3DS or PS3/Vita and being very disappointed with most of them. I can not be the only one who thinks the Indie market is over flooded now...

MK8 can't come soon enough, and that'll be more of the same as far as I can see from clips.

Nothing but will but Kirby as a physical copy.

SCRAM kitty....SCRAM!!!

Scram Kitty for me. But I'll probably wait for a week or so before I buy it.

Am I the only one overexcited about Mr Driller ??! I don't care which version is this one, I want to replay this game for such a long time, by now !! I love rhis character, I love M. Driller !!

I'm still very happy with Cave Story (God, the game was worth the wait!) but of course Kirby is a must.

Nothing for me here but don't care......I'm way to bogged down with games at the moment and I havnt even picked up stick it to the man or child of light yet. No complaints here although it is worrying the vc supply is slowing....AGAIN!

I'm not in EU, but I'm pumped to see that third-party games are now on WII U GBA VC. Battle Network 3 could come any week now...

Mr. Driller 2 is the first 3rd party Wii U VC game

So am I the only person who's never heard of $25 - $30 game Fit Music for U?

I played the Conception demo this weekend and it bored me in 5 minutes. Dating sims are not for me.

@C-Olimar Yeah, at that price Swords & Soldiers is absolutely a great purchase even for a second time, supposing the port is good work and plays as well as the WiiWare version.

Happy we're getting more GBA VC titles but not interested in this particular one. I wish we got Wario Land 4 like NA got last week but I'm sure it'll eventually appear along with Mario Kart Super Circuit soon.

Fit Music for sure!

No price for conception 2? Other sources say €39.99/£31.99 (an unusual split). Makes me wonder if that was added into the press release (or redacted from it). Fit music is also lacking a description.

@rjejr Me neither. Apparently the download size is 11 gigabytes though which makes me wonder what exactly it contains.

More votes for an indie title than Kirby, a Nintendo published game? I see why the UK top 40 chart isn't in Nintendo's favor.

Heh, a paltry selection but it works.

So hyped about kirby on Friday~

I will be getting Scram Kitty first thing coming home this Thursday. Looking forward to your review.

Another excellent Wii U exclusive indie and it looks amazing.

@Starwolf_UK - "11 gigabytes"

Must be a lot of 5.1 music, I doubt a dancerise game is going to be graphically intensive. WW HD is only 2.6GB.

I'm guessing a 2 hours to DL $30 game nobody has ever heard of isn't going to sell very well. Though I know the EU and UK like those singing games a lot more than the US so maybe its one of those, probably wont even get a NA release.

I'm glad to see third-party GBA support for the Wii U VC.

I'll be too busy with Kirby 3DS (retail copy) to play Scram Kitty this week, but maybe eventually I will.

@BakaKnight Horrible dub?

Scram Kitty! Being waiting ages for that. And Kirby (retail) as well.

Still need to download UnEpic and Stick It To The Man when I've got a bit more cash too.

Nothing, another underwhelming week.
No discounts either, maybe too many people have been hanging on for them?

The Scram Kitty has been in my "hold your breath" -list. Fortunately it comes out at last; I have started to feel weak.

@Daemonite makes me wonder what will arrive to NA this week U_U

For everyone complaining; Have you tried Mr Driller2?

It's really a lot of fun and addictive.

Had mr driller on dreamcast! Good game! Bring on more third party wii u vc titles!

@ghasfarost We're also getting Scram Kitty and this puzzle game called Color Zen. Other than that, it's a mystery!

@Daemonite @Goginho @whodatninja @outburst Well that's just harsh. Scram Kitty looks AMAZING and is an exclusive to boot!!! Nothing my @®$€!

Eh, no Warioland 4 - was really hoping for that one. Guess I'll just get Scram Kitty this week then. I'll get Kirby physical - don't want to fill up my SD...

Two great games this week, sadly we're told there are no games on the Wii U and people just blindly believe it; but that's the story of gaming today, just as we were told that the end of Mass Effect 3 was terrible and it became the gospel truth, there's no subjectivity in gaming, everyone thinks the same. People complain that the Wii U has no games, you ask them what they've played and there's a dozen amazing games they've never touched.

It's a shame. Very much like pop music people wait to be told what to think, two very petulant industries.

I saw "Drill" and got excited for a moment as I thought you wrote "Drill Dozer".
They need that game on here soon.

@PvtOttobot Based on Nintendolife's description and the trailer, Scram Kitty looks terrible. Definitely won't be buying it.

In total, that's zero games worth my attention this week.

Nothing. But I am expecting Mario & Luigi Dream Team Bros (£17) and Ridge Racer 3D (£4) this week in the post.

Good to see more indie titles but it is another disappointing week for the Wii U VC. Their is too much of a focus now on games that are to be played on the game pad screen, it's become a real limiting factor on what's being released. It's as though Nintendo is trying to turn the Wii U into a handheld game system wether u like it or not.

@Mahe I can't wait 'till I actually do get it! We'll see what Nlife thinks shortly

Oooh! It's one of those weeks again! Two options:
1) Complain that the Wii U has no games
2) Shut up and buy the awesome exclusive Scram Kitty.

@dumedum Another ? It is basically the only Wii U exclusive indie that I know about.

Finally Scram kitty

@Mahe Scram Kitty is actually extremely fun and challenging! Much better than I was expecting. I can't say anymore due to the embargo, but just know that it's a highly polished game.

@unrandomsam Regarding "exclusives", there are games like "Spin the Bottle", "Block Drop U" and "Nano Assault Neo". A game like "Trine 2: Director's Cut" could perhaps also be called exclusive, but that game exists in other shapes on other platform. Personally, I think that the important thing is that the gameplay is adapted in a good way for the Wii U, regardless of if it's an exclusive or a port.

@Rukiafan: I expect much from Scram Kitty.

@unrandomsam there are plenty of exclusives coming (usually more console exclusives with PC releases) and some that were released in the past, like Chasing Aurora or Spin the Bottle etc.

Im not too sure about scram kitty, I will wait and see a few reviews first. For a console with all these indie titles confirmed. There still isnt many out, or any good ones

@markybbop Mighty Switch Force games are awesome. Also on 2DS/3DS though. Trine 2 Director's Cut should also count as indie, and the Wii U version with Wiimote controls and add-on stages is the best version. Nano Assault Neo is also good and exclusive, as is Spin the Bottle. And then there's Swords & Soldiers next week, which was great on WiiWare.

@markybbop FWIW, there's a 4-page review of Scram Kitty in the May issue of ONM (it got 90%, which is on the same ONM score level as Pikmin 3, Deus Ex, NFS: Most Wanted, Lego City: Undercover). And regarding good existing indies: have you tried Trine 2 or Stick it to the Man?

Wii U gamez.

Scram kitty and Mr driller for me, but been waiting for SK for a while now, it looks right up my alley (pun intended)

@dumedum I am not bothered about console exclusives. Maybe that will change if there are any I like enough. I have already got Stick it to the Man / Chronicles of Mystara / 99 Levels to Hell / Unepic / Toki Tori 2 / Ballpoint Universe / Blood of the Werewolf / Trine 2 (Much better at 60fps) / Gravity Badgers. Scram Kitty I will probably get for the Wii U presuming it stays exclusive at least until I get my Wii U.

(Not bothered paying for a console version of Shovel Knight because I know the quality will be there).

I didn't know that the Mr. Driller series is a spin-off of Dig Dug!

@GamerZack7 Yep, starting with Mr. Driller 2, Namco gave an entire back-story to how Mr. Driller, Dig Dug, and Baraduke are all linked.

Nothing for me this week.

@PrincessEevee9 Yes, horrible dub (or bad english's voices; maybe I used the word "dub" wrongly? ^^; ).
Anyway the voices in Conception sounded very annoyed, litterally, as the actors were annoyed by such job >o>; Maybe it's just me, but that's the impression I got and it almost killed my interest in the game >.<
"Almost" cause luckily the dungeon and the battles were so fun that they saved the demo and my interest in the game

@BakaKnight That's weird. The Voice Actors are some of their better choices recently. Thought honestly Atlus rarely screws the voice work over. Maybe you had a conflict with sound issues? The Voice Actors are amazing.
