Nintendo Download: 26th November (North America)

abysmal

@ThomasBW84
Any news on EU's deal for tomorrow?

NoA has reached new lows...

It does make me think though that my Smash Direct next week theory is correct.

Konami Krazy Racers FINALLY!
I've been waiting for this game on the VC for years!
I know there are better kart games out there, but the nostalgia factor for me (first game I got on my GBA along with Super Mario Advance) is too much!
Plus, for any old school Konami fans, this is a neat little package.

Another Cutie Pets game? Yes, please.

Some decent prices on digital retail

Dunno why anyone expected anything good to release. Nobody would want to release a game when so many games are on sale.

MH4U, W101 and RF4 are a steal at those prices.

Another week without Xenoblade Chronicles on Wii Virtual Console... sigh

Aw, a demo of 'I Love My Pony'. I was waiting for that. I'm sure that I'm NOT THE ONLY ONE.

Oh look, everything that has been on sale before... and almost all of them at the same or worse as they have been in the past. I guess it is better to look to the new releases for this week Oh wait.... they're garbage.

Nintendo is really trying hard not to get my money.

@MikeW
Yeah I'm excited for that one too. I guess I've never known anything about it. I had no idea there was a kart racer with Konami characters! Pretty cool.

Azure Striker Gunvolt for me. I pretty much wait on these kind of sales to pick up digital-only games.

@ikki5 Even with the discounts you can get a lot of these games cheaper at retail or used.

I already got most of the games I liked, so maybe I'll get the 3D Out Run.

I'm close from not supporting nintendo since they can't give us any good vc games anymore.while. everyone else is getting 2-3 a week.good games.we get maybe 1.games they been giving us are the same games as snes just the tba version.come on nintendo if you want me to buy the nx

Why aren't they mentioning the AVGN Game discount?

Heh, Had it not been for the sales a different tune would've been sung.

Speaking of tunes...... You'll thank me later for this.

Happy Thanksgiving!

@Captain_Toad The "v=" part of your link needs to be removed for the embed to work.

I guess it's finally time to pick up Retro City Rampage DX!
...off Steam for 2.49.

@Grumblevolcano Heh that and/or that the youtube link needs to be a space apart on the top AND bottom (I always keep forgetting to do that) Thanks you for the assistance, buddy.

Every week I wait to see if zero mission is in the thumbnail, and every week I am disappointed. This wait is unexplainable, Nintendo. Soon, it will be a year since you first released the game in Japan and over half a year since it was released in EU. Why hasn't it been released in NA yet?!

@Captain_Toad
Love that little tune!
Back in the day when games still had personality

Xenoblade Chronicles, please.

Nothing good as always. I at least recommend getting MH4U that cheap though.

$30 is still too much for Skylanders, but much better than $50 which made absolutely no sense. Though it does point out how absurd Animal Crossing:amiibo Festival not being on the store is. You don't even need a portal, the Game pad is built in, Nintendo made the game, and lots of amiibo are available in stores. Disney Infinite 3.0 is still available for $20 until sometime in Jan.

Activision does what Nintendon't.

@Captain_Toad Nooooo! You're making me want to buy a game from Konami!
Back to topic, I might buy Captain Toad or Shantae and the Pirate's Curse.

@9th_Sage
omg and I thought I was the only one hyped for that game!!

That's my personal GOTY!
THE HYPE IS REAL

I am laughing at how hilariously bad the new releases are. Nintendo is so evil

Konami Krazy Racers coming out today makes me wonder if Konami of America will put the SNES Twinbee games on the NA Wii U VC.

@Grumblevolcano It's Thanksgiving...we're gonna be spending more of our money on pies, cranberry sauce, turkey, potatoes, gravy, stuffing and decorations - maybe even plane tickets. Not to mention the fact that it's Black Friday tomorrow and people will either be buying clothes, shoes, fitness equipment, jewelry, musk/perfume, toys or more recent retail releases. Quit whining. Xenoblade X releases next Friday. You can wait one week for decent eShop releases.

Addendum:

_{If you wish to express an opinion do it without such vulgar language.}

Addendum 2:

To the censor this concerns,

You're such a hypocrite for letting other vulgar, inflammatory and offensive opinions slip through these comment threads all over the site. Happy Thanksgiving, jerk.

By the by, I formatted your edit properly for you. You're welcome.

RE 4 and animal crossing. Europe has them, so why can't we?

I'd really like Double Dragon 3 for my 3DS. Is that TOO much to ask?

@9th_Sage 😃

Most of the games on the list I already have. I did get Inazuma 11 and Dooors.

@kensredemption 'Wow...so many NA users are such whiny turds today...Happy Thanksgiving, arsenuggets.'

Whereas you are just a wee ray of sunshine. /facepalm.

All I wanted was a reduced priced ALBW to replace mine which was stolen. Y'know, a price break like the UK got. Ratz.

I picked up Kirby Return to Dreamland and Wonderful 101. Only played Kirby so far and I am so glad I picked it up. Classic Kirby goodness. Looking forward to playing some multiplayer with my kids! I do wish that you were not forced t use the Wii Remote - this would be much better with the gamepad pro. Can't wait to try Wonderful 101 (still downloading)

Rune Factory 4 for $20. Instant download.

And the price is the same in Canada. Bonus.

Man at this rate I almost want to make this into a game of if the next week can be worse than the next. Get bonus points for predicting bad releases

Those cyber sales would not convince anyone who may be on the fence to buy one of those games. Nintendo simply deserves to get their butts kicked this generation.

"A SNES Konami kart-racer."
The only racing game I recall Konami releasing on SNES was Biker Mice From Mars, and I don't see that coming to VC anytime soon.

Wow NOA!!! You're just like a knife in the ribs man!! 2 measly Wii u downloads today on a Holliday when people don't have work and wanna play some video games with the family!! It's unbelievable how out of touch you guys really are!! Would it have really killed you guys to squeeze out an extra vc game this week?? Decent cyber sales but some are repeats from last time and to add insult to injury Europe got 4 vc games today!! 4!!
AND 2 Zelda DS games and animal crossing wild world, wild gunman, GBA metroid, bayou billy, T16 games and many many others still missing from the NA eshop!! Either you guys need to lay off the lemon-aid or you just don't give a poo about YOUR BIGGEST MARKET!!! wake up!!!
My brother and I will now power up Star Wars battlefront on our ps4! Bye Reggie
PS: Animal crossing Wii u sucks!! Why the hell did you not stick with the classic formula we all know and love???? Ahhhhhh!!!!

_{We don't like profanity here. -Lz}

@kensredemption you act as if chronicles x will be the cure all to Nintendo's woes, mishaps and continuous fumbles with the Wii U and eshop! I'm sick and tired now of "waiting till next Thursday " they need to get their heads outta their Tingles!!! it's realllly frustrating!! enjoy your turkey!

@Yeahman I don't think that will happen... that's too big of a dream (Saying that for of off chance that it'll appear, because it happened when I commented about the lack of 3ds vc stuff.)
@joey302 Someone woke up on the wrong side of the bed.

These sales are so pathetic Some of these games are already years old and their retail prices have not gone down at all and this sale isn't even tempting at all. Its great that there are even sales, but come on Nintendo, this is just really sad.

@ikki5 its a holiday today, i was expecting nothing to be released today.

@Clockwerk nintendo expect full price for their games unless they are used.

Yeah! Finally I'll have Konami Crazy Racers! Also interested in Metroid Fusion and 3D Outrun. Probably Child of Light or others from the WiiU eshop. There's also a discount of AVN and Crimson Shroud... my wallet is crying

@Grumblevolcano
What Theory?

@joey302 that animal crossing game s not a mainstream game but just a side game like Mario party or the Mario sports games are not mainstream but just a side game, on another note thanksgiving is not a major holiday in Europe and i doubt its even a holiday in Europe since it took place in North America. They arn't out of touch with the times either considering most people would like to take time off and spend with their family instead of working during thanksgiving so be glad they even added stuff today.

@MrRaven1972 both are great games, luckily for me I had both games physically but if only they could make another game like Kirby and the amazing mirror but using that four player style like in return to dreamland.

@Gold_Ranger Basically I think the Smash Direct will be on the 3rd December. The logic goes in the form of:

• Direct in the afternoon UK time
• Cloud and a load of other content is set for release straight after the Direct (lets say about $60 in price)
• People are super hyped ready for The Game Awards (2-4am Friday UK time)
• Nintendo reveal some big stuff there (e.g. Zelda U name with proper trailer containing gameplay, Mother 3 localization)
• A very positive end to 2015 for Nintendo

The only thing that works against that theory is that Xenoblade Chronicles X comes out the following day and that setup would certainly kill sales potential as more would want to buy the Smash DLC over than XCX though maybe given their lack of promotion efforts, NoA wants XCX to sell terribly hence JRPGs can be ignored regarding localization of games.

Same sales weve seen before. Might get never alone

@kensredemption The NDF thanks you for your continued support.

Already snagged 3D Sonic and Boxboy. Not too tempted by many of the Wii U releases, though. Still considering Metroid on 3DS VC, Teslagrad, and Don't Starve. We'll see!

Garbage as usual for the 3DS, why do I even get my hopes up anymore??

I might pick up Steamworld Dig on the Wii U since it's on sale. Nothing else for me this week though.

@KnightRider666 We've got classic Pokemon coming to 3ds vc. Doesn't help the current situation but it's something.

@Stu13 was the first one fun? I've been debating getting it.

@MarioPhD teslagrand is fantastic and worth every penny

For feck's sake, getting Never Alone but all those VC games in Europe this week. Then again I have tons of games to finish before all other games die unless I am on the crapper using the 3DS to game instead because X is out next week... week.

Plus the Ward remastered is out as well and when ever that update for cube life comes before the end of the year.

@edgedino please stop defending Nintendo of America's blatant disregard for the North American market. This is clearly NOT just about today - they've been tanking it with the Wii u 3 years now both eshop & retail!
There's nothing you or anyone else can say to make me feel any different! Listen I love my Wii U but this is plain ridiculous!😡

@Captain_Toad nah I'm fine dude but cmon this is going on for 3 years now. Their losing Customers by the truckloads- I'm seeing it everywhere bro!! People coming in to GameStop dumping their Wii U's for a 4 or a xone. It's happening right before our eyes!

Games I want on the Wii U Virtual Console:

• Super Mario RPG (SNES)
• Star Fox (SNES)
• StarFox 64 (N64)
• Chrono Trigger (SNES)
• Metroid: Zero Mission (GBA)
• Chu Chu Rocker (GBA)

That is all.

Nintendo: "Happy hanksgiving, fans!!!" Craps on your pie and coyly smiles while watching you eat it

Good thing Microsoft wants my money, because Nintendo sure the heck doesn't.

Hey, Nintendo look at Microsoft to figure out what a sale is.

Didn't see it listed here, but the AVGN game was available for half off, so I got that. Weapon Shop de Omasse is on sale again too.

Just checked the eShop earlier, and Im not sure if I am going to be getting anything, though harvest moon tale of two towns is 9USD$ so might lean towards getting that and Inazuma Eleven

Happy Thanksgiving everbody! I'm not really affected by this bad download day, for tomorrow night I'll be seeing Grave Digger and Blind Guardian live!!!

Also, heres my special Mario Maker stage for today:
"THANKS" For Not "GIVING" Up! ♥♪
(73A4-0000-00FB-5CF5)

I just wish Nintendo of America would make the connection that poorly made mobile-turned-eShop games does not replace quality (or even poor quality) Virtual Console games. I really hope that for the NX that Nintendo goes to a Global release schedule for VC and takes it away from NoA.

@9th_Sage Anyone with good gaming tastes should be extremely happy to see that demo!

Nothing I want, and saving for smash DLC now.

YES. Just downloaded Konami Racers. Goemon pls.

@Dankykong
Just finished playing about 2 hours of Konami Racers and I have to say the game is even better than I remember it!
Tight controls, good graphics for a 2001 GBA game, and a lot of fan service!
Wish Konami had taken the series further and developed a home console racer game...

@Superryanworld: Oh yeah, I forgot about those. Can't remember when they're coming out though.

I love Nintendo, but they don't know how to price... How many people do you think are going to buy Hyrule Warriors this year? Not many. They need to drop the price, I want the game but not for $60!

A-Train for me

What a ridiculous spread of "deals." Can someone please explain to them what that term actually means?

No 3ds themes for download? 0/5

Fire Emblem: Awakening? Good price....but without dlc's?
For 2,5 year old game? Without online multiplayer?
Monster Hunter 4 have good price.
Luigis Mansion: Dark Moon still expensive? Because it have online multiplayer...
Also shame that not in Europe.

I think the MH4U is cheaper as a discount than a used copy which I'm seeing is at least $30... I HAD to take the plunge on MH4U at long last

Coming off Steam's Autumn sale, these Cyber Deals just brings me to tears.
