Nintendo Download: 2nd April (North America)

Yoshi's Island Ds because I want to see how that works!

I will pick up Mario 64 asap, but I want to know the BOXBOY price...

@ThomasBW84
The DS and N64 VCs aren't updated on Europe.

I bought Super Mario 64 as soon as the direct was over. So many wonderful memories!

I bought SM64 last night. I'll pick up both the Shantae themes and BOXBOY! later too. Next few weeks seem to be pretty good for the eShop.

@ThomasBW84 No Etrian Mystery Dungeon? That falls in this week's I believe.

Nothing this week. I have 64 cents on my account.

Already picked up 64. I owned a PS1 during the time.

Still missing the GBA games that are already out in both JP and EU. No bueno.

Rottytops, because backlog.

@ThomasBW84 I figured but thanks for the reply. I just checked the Eshop and it does still say the 7th and available in the shop.

I'll get Mario 64. I've been waiting to play this on the gamepad, and with custom controls, its a must for me.

I wish i had a wii u, all these games an previous games are amazing and id buy n64 games if i had it plus i wonder if thepokemon ds series join the ds vc.

I wish Underground was a bit cheaper, but still getting it for the uniqueness of it.

Awesome. I got Mario 64 for $2.00 since I already had it on Wii VC!

@vitalemrecords
Me too. Not sure how it'll be having both screens viewed on the gamepad. Plus, how does it work for scenes and bosses that appear on both screens if you are playing it on the TV?

Where is.3ds virtual console

Well now you know why Nintendo took down that fan-made Super Mario 64 game. We finally got N64 support for Wii U VC.

Buying Super Mario 64 & psyscrolr for sure

I see no point in rebuying N64 or DS games, and not sure about anything else. My Wii U and 3DS are not on very often these days, so it's hard to say.

@ThomasBW84
I meant the EU download article which now is fully updated with the Wii U VCs. So never mind.

Mario 64. Best $2 I'll spend all week.

So, still no zero mission for NA?

nothing for me

Man, I wish I had known that The Angry Video Game Nerd Adventures was going to be added to the eShop like a month ago! Now I have no money on there.

Just Mario 64 for me. I was fortunate enough to have a code gifted to me a while back, so $2 is a no-brainer for me. Especially since the only other time I've bought is on launch day for $70

EDIT: I'll be picking up BOXBOY as well!

@ThomasBW84 - I think this game needs a lower sale price or a higher normal price. And job well done w/ all the ND coverage, looking forward to your opinion piece later.

Toys vs. Monsters (EnjoyUp Games, $2.99 from 5th April to 3rd May, normally $2.99)

AVGN is a good game - short and encouraging players to replay the game after finishing it to get a better score.

I guess Box Boy, at first I was "meh", but then realized it's made by Hal. Might get Super Mario 64 at some point, since I can nab it for $2.

I don't need to buy Mario 64. Again. And DS games aren't couch games for me.

I am looking forward to playing BoxBoy.

$0.00 off isn't much of a sale for Toys vs. Monsters.

Underground could be super cool so I'll keep my eyes on the reviews, but AVGN and Mario 64 for me

No option to show my love for Gravity Badgers. WTF.

Nothing for me. Not really interested in Overrated--er...SUPER Mario 64.

Actually just picked up a copy of the original Mario 64 cart for $35 last weekend since I lost mine years ago... so the timing wasn't the best, but it's not going to stop me from spending the $2 to upgrade from the Wii VC

I'm still waiting for the Citizens of Earth patch to fix the game freezing. No wonder there's a discount.

Atlus repeats constantly with the same games on sale. Except one. Persona Q

Voted for boxboy but it might be a while before I actually get it

Super Mario 64 for me. Because I have previously purchased it for the Wii Virtual Console, I'm definitely making the shift to Wii U for a mere $2.

I got SM64 immediately after the direct.

I'll definitely be downloading AVGN when I get home since I've been a fan since the first few videos, but honestly, they should have released it on Wii U when it still had a lot of hype. Long-time fans like me are still excited, sure, but the hype for the Wii U release isn't what it was in the build-up to the Steam release (at least not what I've seen; correct me if I'm mistaken about that).

@Eisenbolan that's becuse persona q is still very new. I'm sure it will go on sale in a few months if you don't think its worth the money now

Excave II will be my eventual buy. I liked the first one for what it is, and from what I've read, the second game improves upon the original in a lot of ways.

I already picked up a copy of Story of Seasons retail, so I voted for one of the 3DS temporary discounts (specifically European Conqueror 3D and The Legend of Dark Witch). I'll probably get Box Boy soon too.

@khaosklub I know right? It's very annoying how they rollout certain releases for games.

Get the legend of dark witch folks. U won't be disappointed. Oh and no 3ds vc update.. That one is disappointing..

Sixty-fouuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuurrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr!

I can't wait for DK 64

Has it been over a month since any VC on 3DS.

Kinda sucks.

Getting BOXBOY! for sure. I think Underground (given the eshop price) deserves a retail release, if at a budget price, or bundled with wiimotes etc.. It's a unique enough title (if limited) to deserve some shelf space.

Boxboy and may get Mario 64 to see how it has aged. And a Shantae theme to encourage more indies to do the same. Shovel Knight or Gunman Clive themes pls!

Already downloaded Mario 64; will probably download Yoshi's Island DS soon.

What's the file size on AVGN Adventures?

So, now we get NDS games once more, hopefully more than one this time around, also, N64 games, which is cool and all, but whatever happened to those Wii games? They started out great in January ... but since then?

Here is my only real problem with the VC support. When the wii was announced they had a game each week but when that was done they never did another one. The same will probably be true for N64 and DS. It should have continued support

I COULD NOT STOP playing Mario 64 last night! I don't know what came over me, as I've had the game on Wii mode forever. It still looks great, and VERY clean on the Gamepad /HDTV. I could not stop until I cleared the entire first area of the castle and got all three power ups. I can't wait to be able to use suspend points on games like Zelda OoT / MM, Starfox 64, and several others. Not because I'm a wimpy gamer, but to make certain glitches and favorite moments easily relivable!

Theres a lot of Wii games and GBA titles I wished they weren't holding back, but I'm about ready to take a break from MH4U and start Xenoblade next week anyway. As far as DS games, it's cool... but I really don't feel the need as they can still be acquired and played as they were meant to be on my N3DSXL. I actually wonder if DS games on Wii U will retain local play capabilities and whatnot. If this means I'll finally be able to play the DS Zelda games at a lower price, then sure.

AVGN Adventures for me. Mario 64 brought me back to the past, now its time to go even further. To the dark smelly depths of rainbow logo bliss.

Club Nintendo messed up and won't let me have my ULTIMATE NES REMIX. I was hoping to play that between ad designs at work today. No code in my email. Won't show up on the site in my orders. Won't let me click it again. Sigh. I was so looking forward to that too.

Toys vs. Monsters (EnjoyUp Games, $2.99 from 5th April to 3rd May, normally $2.99)

? That game's page says it's normally $3.99.

Anyway, great week!

Where's the 'I can't decide on what to get' option?

I'll buy virtual console once they announce its tied to an account and will transfer over to the Next home console without paying again!!!! I won't pay a 3rd time. Hopefully they're releasing so slow because this is their final virtual console base, meaning it will be set like this forever. I don't pay to transfer my music from one apple device to the new apple device.

Mario 64 for me. I never bought it on wii, so I'm looking forward to playing this again.Hope metroid arrives next week.

@Purple
Well, to be fair, it has had more work done on it and has a few extra features that weren't available on the wii.

You're not buying again. Just upgrading.

It's like you buy a lower quality version of a song then want the higher quality version for free... kinda

@andrew20 On the back burner, where else?

Are the N64 games rendered in a higher res? The polygons look less jagged than I thought they would on my 50" TV.

For the first time in months I can safely say that NA Wii U owners are missing out. We got 4 games in Europe! DK64 Mwhahahaha!

Another beat week. No AVGN for the 3DS?

Already have SM64 on the Wii and on the DS, so I'll just wait eagerly for DK64 in two weeks.

Won't be downloading Story of Seasons, got a physical copy

Marginally interested in Box Boy and Excave II. Wanna see if the latter is an improvement over the original.

I wish there was a discount or even free offer for the Shantae themes if you have the game, or like me, have all 3 games on your 3DS...

I really want Citizens of Earth but I'm so broke at the moment. I can't even afford to pay attention.....Had Had! An oldie but a goodie...well maybe not anymore. I may try and get that before the sale ends.

Patiently waits for Mario 64 and Yoshi's Island DS review.

Probably Tropical Freeze, Galaxy 2, or less likely New Leaf from the CN finale. I want Galaxy 2 in disc form.

Nothing for me this week. My time will be occupied by Ultimate NES Remix from CN, and Story of Seasons, which is arriving today in the mail. Plus I'm not going to have any funds for eShop cards for a while.

I am interested in BOXBOY! and Excave II. If later on there is a lull in retail games I'm interested in, I might pick those up.

Rottytops theme!!!? Ugh, right when I promised I'd never pay for a 3ds theme :3...

Nothing for me. I can spend $2 on mario 64, but I have so much homework. I am hating it.

@Captain_Gonru Nothing at all until at least September ?

he's gonna take you back to the past...

No AVGN for Europe?

really wish those VC games were both Wii U and 3DS, there is a total lack of new 3DS games coming, and still only the 1 game specifically made the new 3DS. Definitely feels like they have given up alot of the 3DS support even though that's what has been doing well for them.

Seems like it has been a few weeks since the 3DS Virtual Console has seen any additions…
(Though Donkey Kong Land was a pretty big announcement)

@Quorthon - Wow, you are underwhelmed and unhappy with [insert Nintendo game or decision here]?

Didn't see that coming.

Waiting for DK64.

stop crying.

@Action51 wow, you're happy and overjoyed with anything and everything Nintendo does?

Not surprised at all.

Cool week. Citizens of Earth and Yoshi's Island DS for me. I also might pick up Psyscolor depending on NL's review, that game looks pretty solid.

Will spend the $2 to upgrade Super Mario 64.

On a side note, new patches for both Pokemon XY and ORAS were released yesterday. I have no idea what they do, but as always they are required for online play.

Kinda sad that AVGN hasn't hit the 3DS yet. That's kinda what I'm waiting for.

Another week goes by of NA virtual console getting the shaft. If nintendo can't release virtual console games at parody with the UK in 2015 then nintendo is well ...... Not having parody with wii digital releases which we only have had 3 and n64 virtual console game where we only get Mario 64.... Ermmmm I want donkey kong 64 more, iv played Mario 64 a billion times.

I'm really starting to hate nintendo more and more.

@Nintenjoe64 I hope nintendo eu gets nuked.

I'm hoping for DK64, since I missed it first time around.

Mario 64 is one of the best games ever made, period. I hope the next 3D Mario platformer jumps back to the exploratory approach of that game and Sunshine, rather than the more linear approaches of the more recent games. Not that I don't love the recent ones, I just think it's time to revisit that idea. Or, you know, just HD remake Sunshine. I'd be happy with that.

@Quorthon If your 3DS/Wii U are not on often these days, then you are missing some quality stuff. Hopefully you've just got something else going on another platform, because I don't even have time these days to play the games I already have, let alone the new ones I want.
