@ThomasBW84 Just going through my eShop here and it looks like MGS is $20, not $30

Also, probably not too noteworthy, but Canada prices often differ from America. Fairune and League of Heroes for example are $0.50 more. At most, some retail releases like Pokemon are $5 more. I haven't really deciphered a pattern as to which games are a little more expensive and which aren't though.

Also, Meme Run for $5 is lol. May have gotten a few bites for curiosity at $2 like The Letter, but nobody is going to pay $5 for what looks like a free flash game from 1999 Newgrounds.

Oh wow, I was just thinking like 15 minutes ago that I wouldn't mind having Metal Gear Solid, but I'm digital only, so it was unavailable.

You can all thank me any time for my mystical wizard powers.

And for my next trick... Koei Tecmo and Namco Bandai need to follow suit. Samurai Warriors Chronicles, Dead or Alive Dimensions, Tales of the Abyss, and Tekken 3D are missing from the eShop for unfathomable reasons. Pls?

@Dipper723 Dragon Quest VII, Atelier Rorona, Tales of the Abyss, Disgaea, Resident Evil, Xenosaga I & II, Point Blank, Rhapsody, and Metal Gear Solid 3 were all originally exclusive to PS1/2/3 and later ported/remade for DS/3DS.

I liked the part where Capcom just announced DmC and DMC4 remastered for PS4/XB1 yesterday, Street Fighter V is confirmed as a PS4 exclusive, and yet here we are.

Poll is basically "did you pre-order online?" vs "did you go to a brick and mortar shop later in the week when you found time?"

Angry birds for $50 is still lol forever.

Just Phoenix Wight for me this week. Wonder how many FBI watchlists you'll end up on if you download "I Love My Little Boy/Girl."

Was one of my favorite games last year. Hope you Europeans enjoy it.

@Tops Brain fart moment. In my head, I quickly thought that there's 3 EO games coming, so 3 more to localize. Counted EMD in both confirmed and unconfirmed.

They also tweeted yesterday that the Wii U version may still hit NA eShop this month.

Darn, someone outbid my $24k. This would have looked great alongside my Lieutenant Dan action figure.

Yes! That's 2 down, 3 to go for announced 2015 Atlus titles in the West. So happy about this.

Well I finally found someone(thing) worse at Mario than me.

@baba_944 I'm guessing it was Pokemon RSE and Pokemon RFLG.

EDIT: Yup. And there were 3 if you count RS and Emerald separately.

It would be very puzzling indeed if they allowed this huge demand to just go untapped. I mean, you have people lining up waiting to throw money at Nintendo, for them to just say "no thanks" doesn't make sense.

I'm sure they'll restock as needed. As for amiibo, hopefully someone somewhere in the company will look at the financials, realize that Marth and Villager sold out in like 36 hours, and say "hmm, maybe there's a demand for these too."

Think the only real snuff was Shadow of Mordor over Bayonetta for Action Game of the Year. Everything else was well-deserved, IMO.

Yeah, not sure I could get behind 1500 coins for something that is literally designed to be torn apart and thrown in the garbage immediately upon receiving. And it might not even arrive in time for Christmas.

I bought both MH3 and RE:R on Wii U, and would buy both MH4 and RE:R2 on Wii U as well. I'm not interested in them on another platform. But Capcom doesn't need my money, and I don't need MH and RE. I can live without them.

I don't know if you can even call this a rumour. The source is literally just some anonymous poster on 4chan with a made up list.

4chan anons are notorious for making up bogus rumour "lists" like this surrounding something highly anticipated because, you know, it gets a reaction. They tend to be very strangely specific and based on information that nobody outside of Kyoto could possible know. There was a flood of conflicting rumour lists for both Nintendo's E3 showing and the Smash roster too.

Also, I will take this + EO5 and EOU2, plzokty.

This is timely. I just finished like half a dozen CN essays for VC and wrote "1st party releases are slow and often poor/unpopular games" for all of them.

@invictus4000 Nope, that was FE8, this is FE7.

This is handy! I always get my metric buttloads mixed up with my imperial buttloads. And if I remember my prefixes right, it goes deca -> hecta -> kilo -> mega -> giga -> tera -> butt, so a buttload is whole lotta loads!

I love it when a developer's comments is the exact thing that I want to hear.

Man, Canada is just way too big with huge open spaces in between major population centers. I want to go to this, but five cities and five dates in Canada and the nearest one to me is about 650km away!

This game is just the gift that keeps on giving. It may not be GOTY, but it may be my most satisfying gaming purchase of the year.

As Octane said, the chain launch is a gradual process. What would cause the most damage would be the nearly instant acceleration and then deceleration of Link. As the video said, 20Gs would cause serious and permanent damage... but then you hit the wall at 72km/h.

And you dead.

@3DSFlo No. It's a fantasy video game.

@daggdroppen "So why am i writing this?"

I dunno, but a lot of alcohol seems to have been involved.

I love how the banner for this article is some random pirate mural lol.

Dem legs on Link!

I almost feel like the score should be divided in half for not having multiplayer. It's missing half the game. Most of it, really. What fun is Mario Kart alone?

Suda51's games aren't really for me, but he is a very interesting developer and it would be great if he developed for Nintendo again some day. His fans would appreciate it, anyway.

That is OK.

Good God, kill it with fire.

These comments aren't nearly as harsh or scornful as the topic title suggests.

But it is weird for SCEA to talk up the Vita when Sony doesn't even support the Vita anymore. It would be like Reggie talking up the Wii, and it's pretty well blatantly wrong that any Sony product is servicing an audience that the Wii no longer has. Soccer moms are all playing the newest fad on their phone now, not on a PS4.

I keep waiting for a theme that isn't so... loud. There's just so much going on in all these pictures. You can barely even see the icons on the menu because the background themes are so overbearing.

For the same reason, I just keep going back to the simple gradient background with the ribbon on my PS3. Every theme I've tried, it just drowns out the text and icons and is a headache to look at.

@Gerbwmu Literally laughed out loud. I must be tired.

Atlus has been great about getting stuff to America before, so I hope that trend continues. Though this is Sega-Atlus now...

It's very important to make the distinction that he's talking about the resolution of the pixel art, not the output resolution of the game. Yes, it will look just fine at 1080p and beyond. Shovel Knight does, and its resolution is lower than 480p.

Gogglechu is actually one of my mains, but no colour on Earth repulses me quite as much as bright yellow.

Will local multiplayer work? Kind of a deal-breaker if it doesn't.

Why you post this while I'm at work. T_T

nintendolife pls

According to IGN, there are no review copies. They had to wait until street date and then buy their own. That might be just for NA though.

Legend has it that Konami once sent a cease & desist to a guy who dressed up as Simon Belmont for Comic Con.

Yeah, really not seeing how this would need to be licensed. It's like saying that writing a book about George Bush's presidency would need to be officially licensed by the Bush estate and/or the American government.

So this is like an on rails shooter sort of thing in the vein of Sin & Punishment?

Is that Geoff "Doritos Pope" Kneighley, the shill?

Ehhh...

@thebigN the Wii U hasn't sold at MRSP in the UK since like early 2013 anyway.
