Oh Well, between the new Layton, CATRAP, and CC:R, I should be fine for a while.
@ImDiggerDan - If you're talking about that game you briefly mentioned in the DSiWare forums a while ago, didn't you say that should be out in December?
I'm officially gonna stop complaining about the "high" price of video games in the U.S. ... Except for DSiWare/eShop Downloads that cost more in the U.S. No excuses for that.
@tendoboy - What @TeeJay said. While a game may have been good back when it was new, it could age like crap with things like control schemes that have become outdated, that genre-redefining game that came after it, etc. That's why sites review VC games compared to modern games, as what was good and fun 10+ years ago may not be as fun or good now.
Back to today, I'll have to check out what people think of TwinBee, as that looks like all I may be getting this week.
Well, I would've preferred it to have a chargeable battery extension within it, but considering its low price and that there seems to be a fair amount of support for the thing, it'll be hard not to get. This is also great news for battery makers, obviously.
Wow. It better be really cheap or Nintendo better allow us to get one free with proof of purchase before some date. Oh, and along with the extra Circle Pad and shoulder buttons, it better have something to improve the 3DS's battery life in there ...
Eh, I would've preferred Punch-Out!! to the original Metroid, as Zero Mission would've made more sense to release, but I'm fine with the list. Well, all I can do at this point is hope the releases change between regions at this point, but overall I think it's a good list.
Not that the series isn't a cool idea, but 2 shooters? Really? According to Nintendo there's only 2 3D Classics left, and I don't want the only ones worth buying to be shooters.
"Iwata and right-hand man Shigeru Miyamoto are interested in adding on extra stages and new features, but aren't so keen on paying to unlock content already on the disc." I'm sold. Anyone else?
Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga would be awesome. Choice between FireRed & LeafGreen. WarioWare Twisted (Using the 3DS's built-in gyroscope, of course). Since we're already getting 4 Swords in September, Minish Cap would be nice to have. Mario Tennis: Power Tour because I really don't have another game that I can think of that I'd want from the GBA's library.

Re: EnjoyUp Announces Gaia's Moon for DSiWare
Eh, I'm not really big on EnjoyUp's games, so I may just let this one pass.
Re: Nintendo Download: 13th October 2011 (North America)
Catrap and FAST demo for me. And if Furry Legends is as bad as the trailer on the eShop, that's 2 years of waiting for disappointment for me.
Re: Guild 01 Is a 3DS Compilation by Japan's Brightest Lights
Please let this come to America ... I love awesome game compilations!
Re: Nintendo Download: 6th October 2011 (North America)
Horizon Riders Demo and maybe Side Pocket.
Re: Review: Bugs'N'Balls (DSiWare)
Wow. Was not expecting this game to be any good at all. Good review; I think I may need to check this one out.
Re: Zelda: Skyward Sword Bundle Costs $115 in Japan
@Oddy - Thank you so much for that >$1 difference you clarified for us all! [/sarcasm]

Re: Site News: Nintendo Life's eShop Appearance
Let's just hope we don't get swamped by newbies within this week ...
Also, I wouldn't call Pop+ Solo a must-have, but, besides that, that's easily 80% of the good eShop games there. Great list!
Re: Kid Icarus: Uprising Suffers Worldwide Delay
If this is the worst news to come out of the conference, I'm fine with it.
Re: 3DS Video Recording On the Way
Eh, I could work without the video recording, but the "new experiences" intrigue me ...
Re: 3DS Second Circle Pad Formally Announced
Well, I would've preferred it to have a chargeable battery extension within it, but considering its low price and that there seems to be a fair amount of support for the thing, it'll be hard not to get. This is also great news for battery makers, obviously.
Re: Four Swords Anniversary Edition Details Announced
Single-Player mode for this game? Now I have a reason to get it ...
Re: Super Mario 3D Land and Mario Kart 7 Release Dates Confirmed
Well, I'll get SM3DL day 1 and probably hold off on MK7 until Christmas ... or not
Re: Mario Tennis Smashing Onto 3DS
As long as those gyroscope controls can be disabled, I'm 100% sold already.
Re: Cut the Rope to Slice Up EU DSiWare on 22nd September
If this is a good port, it better come to NA soon ... I could use a new quick-play game.
Re: Nintendo Download: 8th September 2011 (North America)
Liight demo, maybe Dotman, and probably not Golf.
Re: Analogue Stick Add-On for 3DS Revealed
Wow. It better be really cheap or Nintendo better allow us to get one free with proof of purchase before some date. Oh, and along with the extra Circle Pad and shoulder buttons, it better have something to improve the 3DS's battery life in there ...
Re: Marvel at Kirby Mass Attack's Minigames
I am officially pumped for this game. Can't wait to get it!
Re: Nintendo Download: 1st September 2011 (North America)
Wow, I got those prediction right on that DSiWare thread ...
But still, nothing for me unless a hidden WiiWare demo appears.
Re: Intrinsic Pushes Amoebattle Back to 2012
I'm fine with that if it means I get a better game eventually ...
Re: Expect New Product Announcements at 3DS Conference
Not a 2nd Circle Pad, but hopefully some awesome game announcements (and release dates for upcoming awesome games).
Re: North American NES Ambassador Games Announced
Eh, would've replaced Metroid with a Zero Mission release on GBA and putting in Punch-Out!! in its place, but I'm fine with the rest.
Re: These Are The 10 NES Ambassador Games in Japan
Eh, I would've preferred Punch-Out!! to the original Metroid, as Zero Mission would've made more sense to release, but I'm fine with the list. Well, all I can do at this point is hope the releases change between regions at this point, but overall I think it's a good list.
Re: Tetris: Axis Swings By 3DS on 2nd October
Maybe.
Re: Professor Layton's Last Specter Out in October
F*** yeah I'm getting it. Day one is a definite possibilty.
Re: Nintendo Download: 25th August 2011 (North America)
Maybe Magical Whip and Gargoyle's Quest.
Re: NightSky Coming to 3DS eShop
Night Sky on the 3DS? Sounds good.
Re: Review: 3D Classics: Urban Champion (3DSWare)
Nice review, Phil. I think I'll pass, unless I get an OCD urge to have all 3D Classics.
Re: Nintendo Download: 18th August 2011 (North America)
I'll look into Blockado and the Nintendo Videos ... once my 3DS comes back from repairs.
Re: Capcom Sets Three Game Boy Games Onto 3DS VC
I'll be sure to check out all three, though I'll be sure to wait for the reviews.
Re: These 3DS Download Titles Are On Their Way This Year
W00t!
Re: Super Mario Land 2 and Metroid II Heading to 3DS Virtual Console
I'll get both for sure.
Re: Wii Budget Range Grows with Super Mario Galaxy and More
Probably Super Paper Mario and Punch-Out!!
Re: Review: Avenging Spirit (3DS Virtual Console / Game Boy)
When my 3DS returns, I'll get it ...
Re: Nintendo Download: 11th August 2011 (North America)
Maybe Crazy Hamster and/or Avenging Spirit ... or the perfect time to send in my 3DS to get fixed ...
Also, if the WiiWare game turns out to be pretty good, I may get that as well.
Re: de Blob Developer Blue Tongue Shuts Up Shop
I officially declare THQ to be the new Activision. After these guys and Kaos Studios, who's next?
Re: Rumour: Punch-Out!! and Three Marios Join Nintendo Selects
My post on the Nintendo Selects thread seems prophetic now...
And now I can get SPM and Punch-Out!! for cheap. w00t!
Re: 3DS Ambassador Titles Earn You Club Nintendo Coins Too
Have the giant AR card on back order, this should be sweet!
Re: Nintendo Won't Keep Miis Cooped Up in the Plaza
Out by the end of this calendar year? That'll be fine with me.
Re: Nintendo Download: 4th August 2011 (North America)
MARIO'S PICROSS IS HERE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!1!1!1!
So yeah, I'll be sure to get it, but that's about it for me this week.
Re: Twinbee is Your Next 3D Classic on 3DS
Not that the series isn't a cool idea, but 2 shooters? Really? According to Nintendo there's only 2 3D Classics left, and I don't want the only ones worth buying to be shooters.
Re: Iwata: We Will Do Paid Download Content for Wii U and 3DS
"Iwata and right-hand man Shigeru Miyamoto are interested in adding on extra stages and new features, but aren't so keen on paying to unlock content already on the disc." I'm sold. Anyone else?
Re: Rumour: Kirby's Amazing Mirror for 3DS GBA Virtual Console
Still want Twisted! and M&L:SS.
Re: Talking Point: The NES Games You Want on 3DS Virtual Console
Punch-Out!!
Wrecking Crew
That's all I'd really care to see.
Re: Talking Point: The GBA Games You Want on 3DS Virtual Console
Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga would be awesome.
Choice between FireRed & LeafGreen.
WarioWare Twisted (Using the 3DS's built-in gyroscope, of course).
Since we're already getting 4 Swords in September, Minish Cap would be nice to have.
Mario Tennis: Power Tour because I really don't have another game that I can think of that I'd want from the GBA's library.
Re: Nintendo Download: 28th July 2011 (North America)
Maybe Portable Shrine Wars, but that's about it. And no new VCH games in two weeks. At least I'll be an eShop Ambassador!!!
Re: Review: Pac-Man & Galaga Dimensions (3DS)
Decided a little while ago that it would be nice with a price drop ... and it looks like it still will be.
