All in all, we'll probably get the GAME BOY COLOR version of Game & Watch Gallery 2 in North America. But the one thing that bugs me is that why was it revamped for GBC to begin with instead of us getting the same version as Japan did on the original GAME BOY? Still, despite all that, I can't wait until this game comes over here.
Heck, I wonder why Nintendo NEVER bothered to make a Mario anime for this day and age. Ones that would be animated but waayyyy different than the old small Mario anime movies in Japan from years past back in the days of the NES / Famicom era.
I been wondering the very same thing with Wario Land: Super Mario Land 3 myself. I don't think it's that they gave up on support for the GAME BOY. It's more like they're being lazy and just focusing more on trying to give people some NES games out to the gamers out there who missed out on being 3DS Ambassadors. It's annoying really I know, but I have a feeling it's coming within the next few weeks hopefully.

I feel the same way you do man. Kid Icarus: Of Myths And Monsters is a game I never played and am waiting to see if NOA is smart enough to pay attention to it's North America audience and release the dam game here finally. With patience, it should be coming around the same time as Wario Land: Super Mario Land 3 comes out. I'm just surprised tbh that no one has squawked about the absence of The Legend Of Zelda: Oracle Of Seasons & The Legend Of Zelda: Oracle Of Ages yet.
Been a real long time since I played Sonic The Hedgehog: Triple Trouble. Can't wait to play that gem of a game again today. Not really too excited about Dragon Crystal, but am willing to try it out. Shinobi is one game that really sparks a lot of interest from me seeing as how I only played very little of it on a friend's old Game Gear when I was a little kid. Never owned it so it will be fun to finally play this game the whole way through. To anyone else out there, don't criticize these games a lot. TRUE! They may look like they ain't worth the time to some of you but I assure you, games like Sonic and Shinobi are well worth checking out.
Cape Mario would have been nice to see imo, I will say that. Just don't get why Miyamoto would shoot a choice like that down? :/ All in all, there is another choice people do forget that could have been maybe fun to see. Bunny Mario from Super Mario Land 2: 6 Golden Coins. Imagine how funny it would be to see Mario with the rabbit ears again as he slowly descends down to the ground once again. Pure genius imo.
Heh. I could have figured a game like Kid Icarus: Uprising was gonna get a 10 from somewhere. Just never expected Famitsu to give them the first 10. Then again, it's only natural for the game to get such a high mark in it's review seeing as how Sakurai and his team were the ones who were behind this game's development. Plus, add in the point that this is the first Kid Icarus game in awhile since Kid Icarus: Of Myths And Monsters back on GAME BOY and the original on NES. Then it should be completely understandable to me.
@ThomasBW84 Well, if this game is anything like what Samurai Sword Destiny was like when it came out on the eShop , then I would really find myself enjoying this title without putting it down for awhile.
I loved Samurai Shodown and Samurai Shodown III on Wii VC. I skipped over Samurai Shodown II only cause of the reason I like III a bit better but then again, that's just me. I would love to see if Samurai Shodown IV pops up over here in the US, but I highly doubt that would happen with the way how NOA handles their marketing on the Wii Shop Channel due to the fact that rarely any good games have come out for the Wii VC except Strider which hit back on 2/16/2012. I didn't play that game yet but hope to soon. Besides all that, I would greatly love to play another Samurai Shodown game like Samurai Shodown IV sometime in the future if NOA releases this game here.
The more I look at Zombie Slayer Diox , the more it reminds me of a game like Donkey Konga back from the Gamecube era which to me is good. Only instead of using bongos for this, I think it may work with using the stylus to move to the beat in all the little directional arrows that appear on screen. That I like, and am looking forward to a day 1 purchase with this game.
Only good games I see on the list is Metroid [ NES ] & Strider for the GENESIS. Besides, to all that are complaining about no GAME GEAR games not being on the list, just remember one thing. If they're coming to the US on 3/15/2012 and Japan on 3/14/2012 , then why would they not be coming to the UK also. It would have to be a global release for a new portable to pop up onto the list in the eShop imo.

Re: Free Kid Icarus: Uprising Cards Fly Onto North American Club Nintendo
Already put in an order for these AR Cards about an hour ago. Can't wait to see how the game's story is once this game surfaces.
