Re: Review: The Cave (Wii U eShop)

EaZy_T

I'm with the others that would rate this an 8.
I haven't experienced framerate issues in gameplay, just an occasional stutter on saves. As for backtracking, what about games like Zelda etc. that are almost wholly backtracing at times?

It's does need a setting for gamepad only though.

Re: Review: Cabela's Dangerous Hunts 2013 (Wii U)

This game sounds horrible... in a technical sense.
If it were an actual hunting simulation, then it would have been a lot better.

Just think of the beautiful locales that the Wii U could render, ones that you could appreciate because you don't "run and gun" like in this title.

I look at a hunting simulator the same way I would one for one depicting a sniper; not much action, mostly stalking and waiting for the right moment to shoot your target.

Re: Review: Air Battle Hockey 3D (3DS eShop)

I swear it advertised Download Play in the eShop (before it released), that was why I put it in my wishlist. Without that, no sale for me.

Edit: Was this a review of the cartridge version?
The eShop say "Nintendo 3DS Retail/Download" and "supports download play". Maybe there is a difference between the two.

Re: GameStop Sales of Wii U Are Reportedly "Slightly Disappointing"

EaZy_T

My friend was at a GameStop to buy a Wii U for her daughters for Xmas. The employee told her that it won't play any of their Wii games or sync the Wii peripherals/controllers. She didn't buy one (at least she bought a couple 3DS XLs). GS might need to put their employees on comission (to be able to make sure to make the company some money), then fanboys won't be able to wreck sales of consoles they are "too cool" for.

Re: Wii U And 3DS Firmware Updates Go Live

EaZy_T

I noticed the 3DS eShop was in maintenance for a few hours and then... a really short update when I connected. I'll have to D/L the Wii U update tomorrow and see if it helps with the freezing (I've only had it happen a couple times) and slow-ish OS load times.

Re: Outdoors Unleashed: Africa 3D Hits North American eShop This Week

EaZy_T

^wholly agree with MrAndrewJ.

I wasn't even going to buy this, but the over-the-top craziness of the posts here drove me to purchase it. Not a bad game for the price.

A call to peta is ridiculous, no animal are harmed in the execution of this eShop download. It's an arcade style shooting gallery game folks, not a trip to Africa to poach animals.

Re: Review: Dot Runner: Complete Edition (3DS eShop)

6/10 is just about right.
The controls take some time to get used to and you can't use the circle pad.
Decent graphics and fast gameplay.
Loads of levels.

I actually picked up some hints for playing the game from the review, I was really just playing on the top screen.

Re: Petit Computer

EaZy_T

Definitely fun to re-learn some of the commands I've forgotten after all these years. I found a couple of my old programs, but the POKE command don't work.
I wrote a dumb little number guessing game and have scanned a few off the Japanese site (some very good examples of what PetitCom can do there).

Re: Guide: 3DS XL System Transfer

"Time-limited add-on content and add-on content with a limited number of uses purchased on the target system will be lost."
Does this mean those cool little demos I've DLed will be lost? (I believe they were "purchased" although free)
I have a few more plays on them and seeing how they would look on a bigger screen might persuade me to buy the retail games.
