I called Nintendo, they gave me a download code. I'm happy to wait for the physical version to arrive so I gave it to my house mate. I didn't get a code for a pack of amiibo cards though oh well.
I haven't received a download code I got an email saying it's been dispatched but yodel are telling me they're yet to collect it. I want to design homes, preferably in a happy manner.
It's not like Nintendo users have a huge selection of third party games to sink their teeth into. I might buy fewer indie games if that wasn't the case. Still, shovel Knight is a great game that deserves success on any platform.
I half expected the date to be Christmas 2017. I've got a physical copy on preorder for the Wii U and despite all the negative press, I'm really looking forward to it.
Electroplankton! I was so super excited for this game. I was sure it would never get a western release, so it became my first Japanese import. Of course, a year or two later it got an EU release. I've still got my jap copy which came with some super cool earphones.
I think Nintendo have got it wrong here. Their focus on serving cheese butties without HP sauce is laughable. Also, the donkey rides are too expensive and when was the last time you heard someone asking for a laser guided proctological exam? I thought not.
Why would a pre-development prototype have a rendered title screen? With what looks like double dash renders? I'm calling homebrew, impressive homebrew mind.
Also, am I the only one who thinks super circuit is awesome?
Nintendo are crap at a lot of things; online features, appealing to third party developers etc... But one thing they do better than most, is make fun games. As long as that doesn't change, they can do whatever they like with my favourite franchises like Metroid and F-Zero. I know I'll have fun playing Nintendo.

Re: Six More Retro SEGA 3DS HOME Themes Are on the Way
The old school sega fanboy in me wants all of these themes! As long as the European version goes by the more correct name, Megadrive!

Please tell me that isn't the most cheerful picture you could find.
Re: Pokémon Go is an AR Game Headed to iOS and Android, With Accompanying 'Plus' Device for the Wrist
Free to play killed it for me. Sell it for £10 or something, I might have been interested.

Re: Next Wave Of Super Smash Bros. amiibo Now Available For Pre-Order In The UK
I got all six. I hate myself.
Re: New Patent Sparks Talk of Potential NX Details
I think Nintendo have got it wrong here. Their focus on serving cheese butties without HP sauce is laughable. Also, the donkey rides are too expensive and when was the last time you heard someone asking for a laser guided proctological exam? I thought not.
Re: This Mario Kart XXL Game Boy Advance Prototype Looks... Interesting
Why would a pre-development prototype have a rendered title screen? With what looks like double dash renders? I'm calling homebrew, impressive homebrew mind.
Also, am I the only one who thinks super circuit is awesome?
Re: Mighty No. 9 Delayed Until Early 2016
Is it me, or does every story involving Keiji Inafune make him look more and more like the game dev equivilent of Vladimir Putin?
Still looking forward to playing it though.
Re: Feature: The Biggest 3DS Retail Games of 2015 - Summer Edition
So, I'm one of the very few people who thinks LBX looks pretty sweet? Bummer, no local multiplayer for me then.
Re: 3D Out Run, Thunder Blade And Fantasy Zone I & II Now Available On The eShop In Australia
3D Outrun is about the best thing ever. I've poured more than 50 hours into that game, so addictive.
Re: Shovel Knight is Coming to Retail
I think it's a Wii U purchase for me. I already have it on 3DS, but I've always pefered physical to download.
