So much Gamestop hate.

Meanwhile the Australian equivalent, EB Games, is well known for their constant sales and good customer service, while JB Hi-Fi (our Best Buy) is rather stingy. They sold me a dud copy of Lego Indiana Jones and almost refused me a refund even when I showed them it didn't work. I had to complain.

I don't really do home consoles, but if I get this it's easily going to be an EB Games purchase for me.

At first I thought this was another one of those Cuusoo/Ideas sets and I'd be like 'stop reporting on this, this never confirms anything'. But then it was this, so now I'm interested.

Although can you blame me for getting it wrong? I've seen at least seven sites report on Lego Ideas sets being put into review, when in actual fact it means absolute zilch.

THE GOLF GUY WILL RISE! ALL HAIL THE GOLFER!

Huh...interesting.

@linkimaumi1 Oh. Sorry. Whoops. Didn't read all of the comments.

@linkimaumi1 Dude, just pay for the bundle. Get a paypal account or something, or ask a friend to pay for it. Don't be stingy. You can pay but a mere dollar for the game.

So, this Nano game seems interesting. Never heard of it, but hey that's the point of this right? Isn't it to allow you to discover games you've never heard of?

@linkimaumi1 Just pay for the bundle then.

Honestly I hope the 3DS still has time. I've gotta get the rest of the games I've missed, and honestly it's a classic example of the way a game looks not impacting how fun it is in so many cases.

Meh. Who cares.

Well, I bought the Female Inkling Amiibo without having the game. Guess I'll do the same for these.

There's no way that's the final price. The placeholder price for Fire Emblem Awakening's special edition was $200 and it dropped to $130. This will likely do the same.

And still nothing in Australia.

Huh. Cute. Might have to order through BBTS.

Called it. Now, did anyone rip the source code?

Will the DSIware games stay on the eshop?

EIGHT?! ARE YOU KIDDING ME AFTER THE TERRIBLE FIRST GAME?! Guys, April fools was days ago.

For those complaining about the whole DSI thing, a lot of people actually don't realise that you can save them to the SD card and then retrieve them later.

I know I sure as hell didn't realise it until I...embarrassingly...called up Nintendo.

@SanderEvers So does that mean they're mostly safe?

@WireWare Isn't there a way to replace the batteries?

Either way it probably won't drive the aftermarket prices TOO high, especially with the virtual console. I may want to find my old games though, and by that I mean find them in store because I lost them on a bus and need to replace most of them. The DS Transformers Games are a must, followed by the Lego games. Then I can look into other stuff like Chrono Trigger and Mario 64 DS. A lot of them will probably end up at Cash Converters in Australia for cheap; I got Mario Kart DS for $5!

Dammit! So many RPGs! I've still got to finish, BRAVELY DEFAULT, WHERE THE Fairy Flies.

@fafonio Yeah. We lost two great Nintendo content creators today.

@shaneoh AW HELL YEAH! Finally. I know its not as good as the other ones, but I want to have all three just to say I have.

@OneArmedGiant I don't know. I only hope.

@PtM Same, still waiting. We never even got the original in Australia due to out dubious rating system.

Dawwww. That Plague Night is adorable. Maybe I'll pick one up.

Suddenly company production decreases by 30% for the day.

Huh...something's up.

Oh no...

Oh no...

No no no no No No NO NO NO!! NO!!! NO!!!! NO!!!!! NO!!!!! NO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I'd give it a month or so until they end up at the local Daiso or something. Australia stocks Japanese sweets at certain stores regularly, to the point where almost everyone knows what Ramune is.

Huh...just downloaded it last night. Who new...

That ending with the red shell, that was perfect.

Seems a little bland. Hard to believe these are the only options for your in-game customisation.

@ImprobableToast YES FINALLY SOMEONE ELSE COMPLAINING!

Too bad I don't have a Wii U.

Wait, wasn't this supposed to come to the 3DS too?

Hm...looks like the graphics are good...maybe too good...hm?

Wait, February 26th? Damn, I haven't even completed the first one yet! What am I to do?

Looks good. Hope I enjoy it when I get it, because I get a lot of eshop games.

Something I like about this is the change in complexity in the robot designs. Dig's robots are simple and almost super-deformed, whereas here they are a lot more complex and humanoid. It shows an evolution throughout the Steamworld universe.

That bunny is evil

So $20 for Australians. Sounds okay.

So $20 for Australians. Sounds okay.

This is adorable.

Going to pick up the game, but I'm no Shulk. I'm not really feeling it.

Nightmares engaged

It was half price in Australia too. Xenoblade 3D was $35 instead of $60. Picked it up finally. Loving it.

@EonCow Lets just hope it doesn't get forgotten about, like Shantae 2. Still hoping the Director's Cut will come to Australia.

Seriously, I'd gladly give up Bravely Default's month-long head start and get it a little later if we actually got all these games.

@EonCow Wait is Binding of Isaac not coming to Australia? NOOOOO!

Damn. We don't get these sales in Australia.

@Stuffgamer1 Perhaps the games shown are.

@PinkSpider D-D-D-DOUBLE COMMENT DAMAGE!

But yeah. It would be awesome.
