I want to download RE: MERCS. I have a retail copy and want to transfer my save file to the download version so that I can always have it with me. However, will I be able to transfer the save file because the save file cannot be deleted from the retail version and I am worried that I will not be able to transfer it over. I must know before I re-purchase it digitally.
What happened to Spyro? I've never played a Skylanders game before, but wasn't he the main character in the first Skylanders game? Has Spyro finally been wiped off the face of the earth? Don't get me wrong though, I LOVE Spyro games, just not the recent ones...
@DarkCoolEdge @ToniK I agree that the price is higher than retail copies. But when this normally happens, I pretend that I'm paying the higher price than usual so that I may have the luxury of always having it with me on the 3DS. It makes me feel better. lol
As much as I would like to buy it to download it, I can't because the recent Ubisoft eShop sale left me with only enough extra money for Pokemon Y. But when I do have enough money; probably next year, I'll get it!
@One-Winged-Pit Aww, that stinks. Looks like I'm not going to get this then. I'll wait for the next bundle with Nintendoland and whatever releases at that time. Maybe a Pokken Fighters bundle with a Pokemon Wii U, Nintendoland, and a Pokken Fighters game? A guy can dream, right?
Why don't parents just lock the 3D using parental controls so that kids won't turn on the 3D? It's a simple solution so parents won't have to buy a 2DS if their kids already have 3DS's.
The only other Fire Emblem game I'm familiar with is The Sacred Stones for the GBA. Awakening is SO much better than the Sacred Stones. They're both the same genre, a tactical rpg. In Awakening, there's a casual mode where your characters will not die upon defeat. You can try the demo as well if you want to compare and contrast. The demo has 2 or 3 levels and you can choose between a couple levels of difficulty.
EDIT: I have 10 hours of gameplay on Fire Emblem the Sacred Stones and I have 50 hours on Fire Emblem Awakening. I could've had more for Awakening, but other games such as Luigi's Mansion Dark Moon, PMD: Gates to Infinity, and Animal Crossing have caught my attention.
I know, this deal is basically best for those that have already owned Fire Emblem and have been planning to get this game even before this deal was announced.
The reason people think this is because for people that bought Fire Emblem on release day, they only need to shell out $50 for SMT4, and in return, they get $30 eShop credit.
@Klinny Yeah, I contacted Nintendo support, now I'm just waiting for a response. My 3DS is registered already, I double checked just now. Now I'm just going to await for the response to triple check this. But thanks for the info anyways.
@OldMan-Tech
I didn't see any Fire Emblem Awakening registration. Also, there's only one 3DS registered even though my Fire Emblem 3DS is my second 3DS and it has been registered already. Guess who I'm contacting?
Nintendo support, away!
I don't remember if I did a survey for it, I'll have to check. I wasn't expecting a price drop for the digital version so I'm ok with $50, as for preorder bonuses, I won't be able to get the game until late July/early August, therefore, I unfortunately can't get any bonuses.
Darn, nothing for me again. Here's hoping we at least start getting GBA games as possible purchases in Club Nintendo for the 3DS, but I highly doubt that.
Wow, looking forward to Pikmin 3, Shin Megami+Fire Emblem, Yoshi Yarn, Wind Waker HD...well, pretty much everything except Bayonetta 2 and Wonderful 101. I still want to know more details on the two mentioned games first. First half of 2013 is mostly greatly anticipated 3DS games, but the second half(and maybe 2014 as well) is going to be mostly for WII u games. Wow, it's barely 2013 and we're already talking about 2014. It reminds me of this movie that was rumored for a release date of 2016. I'm don't remember which movie it was though.
@SkywardLink98 I have always believed that as well. I believe games should last as much as I pay. For instance, a $60 game should last 60 hours, a $20 game should last 20. A $5 eshop game should last 5 hours.
Pokemon Y FTW! As for the starters, they look cool! I don't know which starter I'll choose until I see their evolutions. I seriously wasn't expecting Pokemon X and Y, but I'm glad they were announced it. I literally thought the Pokemon Direct was going to be about the Pokemon Ruby and Sapphire remakes. X and Y is a much better announcement in my opinion. But I would like a Ruby remake nonetheless.
I can't wait for this! I'm probably going to get Pokemon Y....or maybe both...not sure which one but the Y legendary look epic. The starters look cool as well. Depending on the evolutions, depends on which I'm going to choose. I'm glad that Pokemon is FINALLY headed to the 3DS.
Aww...I really enjoyed Nintendo Power. I haven't bought an issue since October 2012, but I will definitely buy one since it is the final issue. I still can't believe they're shutting down. We can only blame the people that don't buy the issues...that includes me. I have only about 11 issues. I should've bought the issues monthly. Unfortunately, this is the second time a magazine I sort of read has been shut down, with the first being GAMENOW.
Oh alright, thanks Kaiser. I think I will buy the game but first I need Metal Gear Solid HD collection, Mario Kart 7, Super Mario 3D land, Star Fox 64 3D, a new PSP, an 8GB PSP memory stick, Twisted Metal PS3, Skyward Sword, a few $20 eShop cards, and I need to save up for the Wii U. X)
I've never play monopoly. However monopoly reminds me of the command board game from KHBBS. Is this game like the command board from KHBBS? or just plain monopoly with Mario and Dragon Quest players?
Fortune Street reminds me of the Command Board game from Kingdom Hearts Birth by Sleep. Is Fortune Street exactly like the command board game? If it is then I know what game I'm gonna get in December.
This game is awesome! I have played through this game a lot of times and each time I find it entertaining. Same with the first one. I sure hope a third sonic adventure gets released.
I greatly enjoyed Let's Golf 3D. I have played it for 17 hours so far and I am 53% done with career mode. Afterwards, I have challenge mode to complete and I also need to try to get all the achievements. It may not look like much content but Let's Golf 3D IS a long game. Crammed with content.
I wasn't sure of getting this game or not. I downloaded it and I enjoy it immensely. Worthy of the 800 price tag and if I was a critic, I'd give it an 8, possibly a 9. Speaking of which, did you know that you can slaughter the butterflies on the title screen by tapping them? Slaughter 300 and you unlock a very stylish clothing outfit for that devious wildcat, Kokopolo. The clothes are only viewable in the title screen as far as I know.
I can't wait until I buy myself a 3DS pre-paid card so I can buy Let's Golf 3D. IGN gave this game a 9/10. It has everything the iphone(or ipod, I can't remember which one it's on) has in it except for the online multiplayer but there is alternating multiplayer on a single 3DS.
This game has good graphics but where it lags is the framerate speed. I sure hope this game's framerate is increased to what it is supposed to be by launch time.
On the first trailer I saw of this(it was a few weeks ago) dsiware game, the hamster was all brown(no white at all) and the animations(I think this is the correct term) weren't very good. For example, the hamster would be flinged upwards into the air from the ground when the trampoline is used but in this newly updated trailer, the hamster looks like it's jumping on the trampoline to reach new heights.

Re: Register Shin Megami Tensei IV and Fire Emblem: Awakening and Receive $30 eShop Credit
I bought the Fire Emblem 3DS, which had Fire Emblem Awakening pre-installed. Does it count as me buying and registering Fire Emblem?
Also, will SMT4 be available on the eShop when it releases? I buy my games digitally only.

Re: Club Nintendo Rewards Updated for May
Pokedex 3D Pro should've been a free downloadable Club Nintendo reward for platinum members of 2013, or at least purchasable for 400 coins.

Yes, it would be cool. However, since it's $10, it'll probably be 300-400 coins.
