Yes, the article is only stating that the game is on it's way to the e-shop next month, but the link in the article goes to the NA e-shop update of last week, logic thinking: NA only.
You do know 8$ is only 5 British pounds right...? And yeah, it IS surprising, because alot of 3DSware costs less over here.. And it's not that I don't want to pay this much for it(I also bought Rolling Western, and will probably buy Mutant Mudds), it's just a bit unfair. We get the long wait AND a higher price..
Indeed, and if you compare it to the US price (only 8 dollars) it's crazy. We're waiting months for this game to get released, and when it finally does we are kind of double punished because of the price..
I'm starting to hate Nicalis.. maybe they just want us to ignore their games..
Is it the same purple as at E3 2010? It looks different, more ehm.. ugly? I loved the E3 purple one though.. If this ever comes to Europe and is the same as E3 2010, I'll consider getting one (:
The UK isn't a region.. Europe is the region, and UK is just a part of that... Nintendo UK doesn't exist.. it's Nintendo Europe.. and so it's just one country that performs badly, because in the others, France/Spain/Germany/Netherlands, Nintendo is doing just fine...
and by the way, it's only simple logic that Nintendo doesn't perform as well here, hardware wise, because most "gamers" only play FPS's and those games aren't available for the 3DS(yet..)
Animal Crossing, Rhythm Thief, NSMB2, Heroes of Ruin, FF Theathrythm, Kingdom Hearts DDD, Paper Mario, Luigi's Mansion, Fire Emblem(in Europe..) Mario Tennis... all 3DS exclusive and awesome... And outdated cardridges.. Nintendo is going to give you the option to choose whether you want your game digital or on a cardridge.. And I agree with you on the 3D part.. although it really boosts the 3DS graphics..
Only €10? For me it's worth €40.. and the demo doesn't feature anything of the story(which is actually logical because implementing a story in a demo is kind of impossible..) And the story, graphics, cutscreens and the harder minigames are what make this game more than worth full price..
I think it didn't get enough marketing.. Plus I heard that a lot of stores didn't have it in store before the weekend.. I understood it was only available online so I think that also caused this... Hopefully it will sell enough copies in the States.. unique game that deserves it... (:
Pay full price for e-shop funds.. WHAT? Everyone pays the same for E-shop funds.. and the unavailable content? Should've bought you're 3DS earlier on.. it's a gift from Nintendo..
BTW, I don't see what this has to do with this news.. These games are for non-ambassadors too..
Anyhow, On topic: Great to see more Game Gear games coming ^^ And Shining Force is just awesome! Day one purchase ^^
I think the price is a bit high, especially when you consider it doen't use many of the 3DS features...
But I think it's a bit disapointing a lot of 3DSWare developers/publishers focus on the US... I mean, I am waiting for over a year for Cave Story DSiware, and nog I have to wait 5 months for this. Yay.
The other Mighty games are 800 points because it was a big game. 16mb or something. Nintendo based the price of the DSiWare software on how big it was. Biggest size category, biggest price category...
I was hoping Wayforward would lower the price now they can, since 3DSWare doesn't have such strange rules.. (:
But I think Ninty is incredibly generous with free stuff this year, 23 free games, and another one on January 5th(Kid Icarus)... And of course Nintendo has marketing reasons for the free stuff, but still... free games! And if it means more people will use their 3DS online so we can get more quality 3DS e-shop games it's a plus-plus situation right?

@Johnnyb7
Rayman GBC doesn't have that much levels..
I think they mixed up the Rayman Origins and Rayman GBC descriptions..
But where that price is coming from.. the GBC game is $5, so maybe Rayman Origins will be released on the e-shop for $9,99?

Re: Nintendo Download: 31st May 2012 (Europe)
I'm getting Rayman for sure (:
I'm also interested in what Demo @Tate24 ...
Maybe Order Up!? But that's for the US only right?
Re: Order Up!! Demo On the Back Burner Until Next Week
@CureM
This was a retail title in Europe, so I don't think it will be less than $10...
Re: 3DS Nears 1 Million Units Sold in UK
Still, US is alot bigger than the UK, you can't really compare them.
What I WOULD like to know is how Europe as a whole compares to the US in terms of sales..
Re: Add These Dates and Times to Your E3 Schedule
3AM on a wednesday.. No thanks hahah..
Will be watching the E3 show though (:
Re: Rayman
I want this! Just because I don't have room for the DSiWare version.. it's on my SD card..
This was my first videogame ever.. Oh nostalgia..
Re: Nintendo Download: 17th May 2012 (Europe)
And there they are.. the complainers...
One week without new software on one of the services and it starts again. :S
Re: Art of Balance TOUCH!
Price is now confirmed. 7 euros it is.. don't know how much this is in GBP.. ^^
Re: Nintendo Japan Discontinues Aqua Blue 3DS
I don't care, as long as the purple one makes it over to Europe some day..
Re: Japanese Charts Bring Golden Results for Nintendo
@Nin-freak
Why is that sad? They can still be good games?
Re: VVVVVV
@Mardt
That is only on WiiWare and DsiWare..
on the 3DS e-shop the publishers are pricing the games as far as I know..
Re: Adventure Time on DS to be Released 'Late Fall'
@Firejonie
I think it's just the DS version, and ofcourse you'll be able to play that game on a 3DS console.. I never saw anything about a 3DS version..?

Re: New Heroes of Ruin Trailer Heads into Battle
The reviews so far all say "meh" so I will wait for a demo or something..
(or a great Nlife review ofc.. (: )
Re: Nintendo Download: 10th May 2012 (Europe)
Nicalis just wants us to ignore their games..
7,20 converted to American dollars is around 12 dollars. That is crazy..
and is Sonic Labyrinth really that bad? D:

Re: UK Charts Bring More of the Same for Nintendo
Come on guys, it's only one country.. I bet there are more countries in the world where Nintendo performs badly..
Re: Tumblepop Set to Suck on 3DS Virtual Console Soon
Is it Virtual Console leak day?
But ehm, more VC games are always welcome! (:
Re: Midnight Purple 3DS Hits North America on 20th May
Is it the same purple as at E3 2010? It looks different, more ehm.. ugly?
I loved the E3 purple one though.. If this ever comes to Europe and is the same as E3 2010, I'll consider getting one (:
Re: Brain Training 3DS Confirmed for Worldwide Release
Hopefully this will result in higher 3DS console sales.. (:
But ehm, It will have to be very different, because I own 2 other Brain Training games, one retail, one 3DSware..
Re: Game & Watch Gallery 2
Never played this one.. Will get if it gets good reviews.. (:
Re: VVVVVV Set to Flip Into Europe on 10th May
@BudrSbastig
If you look at VVVVVV price on Steam, then yes, it is
Re: VVVVVV Set to Flip Into Europe on 10th May
Any word on the price yet? (:
8 euros would be a bit much..
I hope it's 6 or 7.. ^^
Re: VVVVVV
Finally dated for EU! 10th May is the day it happens!

Re: First Impressions: ATV Wild Ride 3D
@Myx
Really? Obsolete?
Animal Crossing, Rhythm Thief, NSMB2, Heroes of Ruin, FF Theathrythm, Kingdom Hearts DDD, Paper Mario, Luigi's Mansion, Fire Emblem(in Europe..) Mario Tennis... all 3DS exclusive and awesome... And outdated cardridges.. Nintendo is going to give you the option to choose whether you want your game digital or on a cardridge.. And I agree with you on the 3D part.. although it really boosts the 3DS graphics..
Re: Nintendo Dominates UK's All-Time Top 10
@Burning_Spear
Probably discounts and promotions and stuff?
Re: Block Factory
Maybe I'll get it.. If it turns out alright and nothing interesting will be revealed in the press release for next week on monday ^^
Re: Organise Your Home Menu With New 3DS Update
More than 80 icon's on my homescreen, so if it isn't too ugly-looking I will definitely use this.. (:
Re: Kingdom Hearts 3D Dream Drops into Europe on 20th July
@hydeks
Nintendolife does also always post the US release date, I think they just accidentally missed this one.. No big deal..
Re: Europe, Your 3DS System Update Arrives 25th April

You can redownload those videos.. just go to your Downloaded Software list..
@nole001
I hope this means we get Nintendo Zone too... (:
Re: Interview: Ludosity - Alien Chaos 3D
2 3DS titles in 9 months? What other game do they mean..?

Re: Hi-Ya! It's Johnny Kung Fu Trailer Number Two
Looks pretty cool... (:
will the other UFO e-shop games ever come to Europe? 3DSware catalog is so empty here...
Re: Kid Icarus: Uprising Fails to Fly in UK Charts
It's only one country.. and could this have something to do with GAME not stocking it?
Re: XSEED Reveals Unchained Blades for 3DS eShop
@Kafei2006
Depends on where you live.. America, almost all countries in Europe, and Japan can buy e-shop cards...
Re: Nintendo Download: 22nd March 2012 (North America)
Stop with the complains! The 3DSware game looks fun.. and our downloads this week(europe) are a lot worse so...
Re: Nintendo Download: 16th February 2012 (Europe)
Good week? No 3DSware, no WiiWare, no VC... one good old game makes a good week? meh Ninty, meh.
Re: Unsheath Sakura Samurai: Art of the Sword on 2nd February
Alot of 3DSware for the US lately...
when is Europe gonna' get some? (this, Mutand mudds, VVVVVVV, that other samurai game..)
Re: Mutant Mudds Hits eShop on 26th January
Lucky USA... I hate the NoE submission requirements... a lot of games are released a lot later than in the USA. stupid manual's and such.. =(
Re: Interview: Mutant Mudds Reader Questions

Re: Nintendo Download: 22nd December 2011 (Europe)
I have another firmware update today? =O
otherwise I can't acces the e-shop.. what is going on?

So Great, a day one purchase for me (:
Re: Talking Point: Nintendo’s Year of Giving
@Nintyfan
They gave us 20 free ambassador games =P
But I think Ninty is incredibly generous with free stuff this year, 23 free games, and another one on January 5th(Kid Icarus)...
And of course Nintendo has marketing reasons for the free stuff, but still... free games! And if it means more people will use their 3DS online so we can get more quality 3DS e-shop games it's a plus-plus situation right?
Re: 3DS eShop Has All These Games Launching in Quarter 1
@James
I wasn't =P And yes, It is probably something like that..
But with Nintendo you'll never know...
Re: Nintendo Outs Jett Rocket Super Surf for 3DS eShop
The wiiware game looks interesting, I might buy it..
Re: Nintendo America Dates Upcoming 3DS Games
@JayArr
Hahaha so I am not the only one who thought that
Re: 3DS eShop Has All These Games Launching in Quarter 1
Sounds awesome, I hope Europe will get the same (:
Ooh by the way, Do any of you guy's know where the usual E-shop press release for Europe is? =O
Does it have anything to do with a possible ambassador games release? With the NES batch the press release came also three days late..?
