Well, I went from being ridiculously uninterested to being pumper for this one. If the statement Circle released earlier is true, I can't wait for this one!
Wow, only $8? This is the cheapest game Nicalis has ever published on a Nintendo platform, no? Provided I get an eShop card for Christmas or my birthday, I'm definitely picking this up as a late Birthday present for myself.
It'll depend on the physics and replayability of the tables, no doubts there. I'll keep my eye on this one, but considering Teyon's track record isn't that great, I'll probably pass.
@Kriedler - If you go into DSiWare's Data Management, you can re-copy DSiWare titles to the SD card and keep a copy in the System Memory. If you delete the System Memory copy, THE COPY IN YOUR SD CARD MEMORY WILL HAVE THE SAME SAVE FILES IT DID WHEN YOU COPIED YOUR GAME TO THE SD CARD. So, at a later time, you can copy your SD card copy back to the System Memory and still have your previous save files.
It's a shame that there doesn't appear to be anything else on eShop downloads for the rest of the year ... but with a line-up like that, the new year can't come soon enough!
Getting this one for sure. I played through one or two of the Flash Shift games (I hope those are included in the 3DS game), so I'm looking forward to how it'll work with the same concept in 3D.
And now I'm considering removing Bejeweled 3 for the DS from my Christmas/birthday list ...
Anyway, Nintendo's gonna rebound. The Wii's got Skylanders, Just Dance 3 and Skyward Sword coming this holiday season, and those will sell like nobody's business, and with all the Nintendo Select titles they've re-launched and their games that still sell well years after their release, the Wii will be fine this holiday season. The 3DS has too much good stuff coming to not do well, and the DS library is in a similar situation to the Wii's. Nintendo should be more focused on pushing the Wii U next year than what's gonna occur this holiday season.
Probably Cut the Rope (which was supposed to come out two weeks ago but is just releasing now), maybe Balloon Kid (depending on the review and how close it is to Ambassador Balloon Fight), and perhaps Gnomz if it's good as a single-player game ... when I have eShop cash for the eShop stuff.

Re: Mario Tennis Opens Up with New Gameplay Video
Nice to see they're dropping realism in favor of pure fun. Me needs a pre-order now.
Re: Mario Tennis Open for North America on 20th May
I need to pre-order this and Kid Icarus ASAP.
Re: Dillon's Rolling Western Has Arrived in North America
All right, I'll go check out some impressions now. $10 is a little steep for something that didn't seem so hot in previews.
Re: Nintendo Download: 16th February 2012 (North America)
Being an Ambassador, I'll take the MGS demo (which I'm not that interested in) and grumble about not getting Wario Land this week.
Re: Bit Boy!! ARCADE for eShop is Halfway Done
I'll keep my eye on this one, but considering the first one was fairly mediocre, I won't be surprised if I'm passing on this one.
Re: Ace Mathician is Goodbye Galaxy's Next DSiWare Game
Well, I went from being ridiculously uninterested to being pumper for this one. If the statement Circle released earlier is true, I can't wait for this one!
Re: Analyst Claims eShop Made $11 Million in 2011
Hopefully Hyu Stone will get a Western release; it looks interesting from what I saw on 3DS-Screenshot.
Re: Nintendo Download: 9th February 2012 (North America)
Maybe Maru's Mission, but that's about it for me.
Re: Review: GO Series: Undead Storm (DSiWare)
Getting it soon, no doubt about that now.
Re: CRUSH3D Demo to Hit Europe's eShop This Week
This needs to come to NA; I'm on the fence about this one and a demo could make or break it for me.
Re: Nintendo Download: 2nd February 2012 (North America)
No demo? Oh well. I'll be picking up Sakura Samurai eventually, and I'll have to see how Undead Storm turns out ...
Re: Nintendo Download: 26th January 2012 (North America)
Maybe Mudds, definitely Flipper 2 and the M&S demo.
Re: DS Sales Hit 151m Consoles and 890m Games
Is that a representation of Xevious on that cake?
Re: Unsheath Sakura Samurai: Art of the Sword on 2nd February
Eh, I'm waiting for the review on this one, and even then it'll be between this and Mutant Mudds.
Re: Flipper 2 Rushes North America on 26th January
It's like Nintendo is trying to suck away all of my money with all of these awesome games...
Re: Mutant Mudds Hits eShop on 26th January
Hefty price; I think I'll be waiting for the review.
Re: Nintendo Download: 19th January 2012 (North America)
I could get everything for the 3DS ... but I'll wait for the reviews for most of them.
Re: Review: Gaia's Moon (DSiWare)
Saw a 1 Star rating for this on the eShop ... I may need IGN's review to fully determine whether or not this game is for me.
Re: North America Gets 3DS eShop Demo Tomorrow
Rayman Origins demo coming? All right!
Re: Review: Quick Fill Q (DSiWare)
Well, this review has convinced me not to spend the $2 on it. Not that I need more games ...
Re: Interview: Mutant Mudds Reader Questions
Question answered - Sweet!
Re: Nintendo Download: 5th January 2012 (North America)
Both DSiWare titles and that eShop one interest me ... but I think I'll be waiting on reviews for all of them before I take the plunge.
Re: Zen Pinball 3D Lights Up North America on 12th January
Maybe ... I'm not a pinball aficionado, and I have a bunch of games I already want from the eShop ... I'll see.
Re: Interviews: Goodbye Galaxy Games - Flipper 2: Flush the Goldfish
Can't wait for this (and the other game he teased) to come to NA!
Re: Trip World Visits Europe's 3DS Virtual Console on 5th January
Doesn't sound like that bad of a game to be the VCH's 1st import...
Re: Nintendo Download: 29th December 2011 (North America)
Currently $.58 short of getting VVVVVV on my 3DS. fml
Re: Renegade Kid Wants Your Mutant Mudds Questions
What other games are you developing/want to develop for the 3DS?
Re: eShop Meets Its Samurai Sword Destiny on 5th January
I'm detecting a slight amount of sarcasm in that first paragraph ...just a little.
Re: VVVVVV eShop Release Date Revealed for North America
Wow, only $8? This is the cheapest game Nicalis has ever published on a Nintendo platform, no? Provided I get an eShop card for Christmas or my birthday, I'm definitely picking this up as a late Birthday present for myself.
Re: Flip Out Over 101 Pinball World in January
It'll depend on the physics and replayability of the tables, no doubts there. I'll keep my eye on this one, but considering Teyon's track record isn't that great, I'll probably pass.
Re: 3 Heroes - Crystal Soul is CIRCLE's First Game of 2012

Re: Nintendo Download: 15th December 2011 (North America)
Maybe Blaster Master and Elite Forces, but me is waiting for me Ambassador games!
Re: 3DS eShop Has All These Games Launching in Quarter 1
It's a shame that there doesn't appear to be anything else on eShop downloads for the rest of the year ... but with a line-up like that, the new year can't come soon enough!
Re: Mario Party 9 and Rhythm Heaven Fever Release Dates Revealed
RHF for only $30? I'm sold.
Re: Flipper 2 Gets European Release Date
Online level sharing and NA release date ... ?
Re: Review: Lock 'N Chase (3DS Virtual Console / Game Boy)
Hmm, convincing review. I'll grab it (eventually) once it comes to NA.
Re: Nintendo Download: 8th December 2011 (North America)
Maybe Pushmo and the new CC, and if I can get my Wii connected back to the Internet, hells yeah I'm getting the MotoHeroz demo.
Re: Shifting World Flips 3DS Upside Down in 2012
Getting this one for sure. I played through one or two of the Flash Shift games (I hope those are included in the 3DS game), so I'm looking forward to how it'll work with the same concept in 3D.
Re: First 3D Classics: Kid Icarus Footage Flies In
Eh, KI doesn't really seem to be a game for me. Plus those sound effects and the game's difficulty would drive me bonkers.
Re: Here's a New Pushmo Trailer to Grab You
I'll keep my eye on this one ... I'm not completely convinced this'll be for me yet.
Re: Zen Pinball 3D is Pinging to Europe Next Week
Hopefully it'll come to NA soon as well ...
Re: Nintendo Download: 24th November 2011 (North America)
Maybe all 3 eShop games for me this week ... or perhaps none of them.
Re: New Mutant Mudds Trailer Released
That was awesome. Hope this comes sooner rather than later!
Re: Feature: The Most Bizarre Nintendo Life Search Results
"music that sounds like fireworks"
... The rest of Strawberry Jam by Animal Collective? sorry, the hipster in me had to
Re: Nintendo Download: 17th November 2011 (North America)
Maybe Kirby, but that's it for me; SM3DL is still working for me.

Re: Nintendo Download: 10th November 2011 (North America)
Interested in all 3 eShop downloads, but I'll be waiting for the reviews for all three of them before I purchase anything.
Re: Giana Sisters DS Sneaks Into North America
I'll echo tbd on this: about frickin' time! Well, I now have to go to Walmart.
Re: Freakyforms Come Alive on the eShop Next Week
Eh, not for me. Unless the gameplay is incredibly fun (and from what I've seen, it doesn't look that way), I'll be passing on it.
Re: Nintendo Download: 3rd November 2011 (North America)
Probably Cut the Rope (which was supposed to come out two weeks ago but is just releasing now), maybe Balloon Kid (depending on the review and how close it is to Ambassador Balloon Fight), and perhaps Gnomz if it's good as a single-player game ... when I have eShop cash for the eShop stuff.
