That's understandable, this would be a terrible week to release. Hopefully Thorium Wars 2 does well, I remember liking the first one. I also liked the first Tappingo, so this will be a day one buy.
It's been a long time, nearly four years...and the crossover finally comes out tomorrow. It was announced before I started college and now I'm a senior, yet no less excited for it. COME ON LAYTON AND WRIGHT!!!
Also, Azure Striker is likely going to be a day-one and I'll look at the discounts as well. Super Acorns 3D is pretty good for anyone who's wondering.
Now wait a minute. The review states that there is no interaction in battle, but that's not quite true. There are two "slot-in" chips mapped to L and R that you can activate mid-battle when you feel that they're necessary, bringing a new layer of strategy. Should you pack a healing chip, or maybe a strong attack?
Please tell me I'm not the only one to have misunderstood the article title. I thought for a second that you meant the game takes place during the "beginning" of North America (whatever that means.)
Definitely getting Blazblue and likely will pick up Xtreme Sports one day. But for now, my wallet rests because next week will have PLxPWAA, Tappingo 2, and Azure Striker Gunvolt.
Well, I "visited" the Christ the Redeemer statue today. I didn't find anything, but even in low-quality pictures, the statue was breathtaking to look up at.
Ok, so the top right looks like the giant statue of Christ in Brazil. And the bottom left is definitely a big Arabic temple of some sort I think but not definitely.
Here's the week that I hope someone recognizes me and my calls for Battle Network on the VC. Best game ever, I will be caught in so much innocent nostalgia of the good days.
NA just doesn't get EU's deals, but man. I would be all over that Steel Diver promo if it were available. And Kirby. And Earthbound if I didn't have it already.
Personally, I do hope for the day when the creation of games (or any media!) that have teenage girls scantily clad and sexually depicted is illegal. Sure, I can't deny that anime girls aren't real girls, so no harm done to real girls. But if pedophiles play the game and act out their lust in the game, who's to say that they won't be encouraged to do so in real life? Of course, on the other hand, you could make the argument that pedophiles can use the game to act out and empty their desires virtually so it doesn't happen physically.
What I'd really like to see is the idea that "pedophile = evil" get destroyed and instead focus on offering resources to get pedophiles through those struggles. They're people too, and I'd like to believe that extending help to them without stigma could reduce the amount of child rape in the word. At the very least, it would get rid of the good people who slowly fall into the crime.
My absolute only complaint is that we didn't hear any sort of VC news. I was really hoping for an update on N64 or third party consoles. But you can't have it all, and I'm pumped for Captain Toad, Mario Maker, Mario vs DK, Zelda, Star Fox, Smash, amiibo, and many more titles..
Also Capcom made that awesome VC announcement and MMBN is finally coming!
I might pick up Collection, it seems like too good of a deal to pass by. But I'm gonna wait first because Capcom has the VC stream tonight, and hey, you never know...
FINALLY my long-awaited MMBN series is coming! This can't come soon enough! Hopefully we hear more about DS VC tomorrow, giving them a chance to show off Star Force at their Wednesday night event.
yeah, that's probably hoping for too much. The E3 bear doesn't help greedy kids like me.
Wii U -Paper Mario in the style of the first two -New Star Fox -Nintendoland 2 -Sudden N64 release along with confirmed of GC...jk, sudden GC release as well
3DS -Pokemon ORAS info -Game and Gallery 3 release. Totally illogical but Ninty plz
General -NFP info -Cross-buy discounts -Achievements plz
Wow, I had fun with Thorium Wars back in the day. I just may have to buy part 2 if it's good. Looks like they got rid of those freaking tank levels, too.
Forgot to say that this is either going to rock or suck. Last year, as someone already mentioned, Nintendo kept announcing stuff at Directs. This year, they haven't except for the Feburary one. So they may end up having a huge list of titles to finally show...or it may just be a few leading to massive sad. But hey, if they want to have a good show...just put MMBN3 on the VC and give Bill Trinen his chance to shine.

Wait, we're getting the Smash discounts as well? I was hoping we'd see them, glad it happened!

Re: Rumour: Unconfirmed Smash Bros. Footage Supposedly Shows Three New Characters
I want to call BS but I can't. If it's true, I suppose Duck Hunt Dog will be a cool addition and I'm excited to see Dark Pit in.

It's not much, but it can't be totally forgotten.

Re: Nintendo Download: 14th August (North America)
Megaman and Scram Kitty for me. I never played this Battle Network spin-off, so I'm excited to try it!
Re: Nintendo Download: 7th August (Europe)
Heck, if NA gets those discounts, I'll be all over Scram Kitty and Abyss.

Here's the list. Let it be know that I posted on GameFAQs and guessed all 4 correctly. I feel special.
Re: Nintendo Download: 31st July (North America)
Well, I can finally shut up because the greatest series in the world has finally landed on Wii U.
My bet for the August games are MM 5, 6, 7, and X3. Maybe Zero or Battle Chip Challenge.
But HOLY CRAP ITS FINALLY HEREEEEE
Gotta haul drywall with my grandpa and then it's time once again. What a glorious day.

I'm just excited to see that Challenges are for sure back. Hopefully he does another 3 sets of 120.
Re: Nintendo Download: 24th July (North America)
Although to be fair, I guess that we got Mega May before EU. That's pretty good.
Re: Nintendo Download: 24th July (North America)
Man, NA VC...I thought for sure that it was picking up in April, but boy was I wrong. Can't wait for Battle Network next week, though!
I'm still wanting Game and Watch Collection 3, DKL 1-3, Pokemon TCG and others for 3DS. Nintendo is sitting on so much cash!

Re: Miiverse Update Allows Screenshots As Favourite Posts and Additional Community Info
@allav866 I'm waiting on the same thing. It'd be nice to go back and view my posts for each individual game!
Re: Nintendo Download: 24th July (Europe)
@ModestFan93 Haha, I doubt that the Zero Collection will arrive considering that the individual GBA games are coming starting this year.
But man, I'd like to see ZX and Advent. Never had much of a chance with those two.
Re: Nintendo Download: 24th July (Europe)
Here's the week that I hope someone recognizes me and my calls for Battle Network on the VC. Best game ever, I will be caught in so much innocent nostalgia of the good days.

Re: Review: The Letter (Wii U eShop)
Yes, a 1/10! Don't get to read those very often. Thank you for suffering for us, kind NL writer.
@kurtasbestos Your first guess was right. For real. This game, man. This game.

Re: Nintendo Download: 10th July (North America)
So that One Piece game has a shared Wii U/3DS Miiverse community. Maybe it's nothing, and maybe it's something. Who can say?
Re: Review: Guacamelee! Super Turbo Championship Edition (Wii U eShop)
I clicked on this thinking the if it's not a 9/10 or 10/10 then I'd have to destroy the reviewer. Good thing I don't have to today.

Re: Nintendo 64 Titles Heading to the Wii U Virtual Console

It's not new, but at least it's been confirmed, even if it's been for over a year. One day, one day.
Re: Capcom Could Be Up For Sale After Shareholders Reject Anti-Takeover Plan
It would be nice to see Nintendo get them, but all we can do is watch the story unfold.
Re: Poll: What Did You Think of Nintendo's E3?

Re: Talking Point: What We Expect From Nintendo at E3 2014
I wouldn't be surprised to see an announcement for DS, but I hope that N64 ends up available for today. We'll see!
Re: Slew of Capcom Titles Announced for North American and European Virtual Consoles
FINALLY my long-awaited MMBN series is coming! This can't come soon enough! Hopefully we hear more about DS VC tomorrow, giving them a chance to show off Star Force at their Wednesday night event.

Re: E3 2014: Nintendo Reveals New eShop Games in Trailer Extravaganza
Wow, I had fun with Thorium Wars back in the day. I just may have to buy part 2 if it's good. Looks like they got rid of those freaking tank levels, too.
Re: Rumour: Mario Kart 8 DLC to Feature Expanded Roster and New Battle Modes
Between this and Mario Maker, the fake leaks have been good this year. But in 26 hours, they will be forgotten.
Also N64 VC plz
