Not a bad list, but NES Open Tour Golf is atrocious. I downloaded it on Wii the night it was put on VC as an impulse buy and barely got 5 minutes play out of it before spending years regretting buying it.
I think I'll take the same attitude as Nintendo of Europe and say I'll buy it, but then not actually bother, just like they've done with the Ambassador Tool.
Other impressions have stated that the game does not run very well at all. I think most people will be buying the PS3 HD Collection which includes HD versions of this, MGS2 and Peace Walker for probably the same price.
I downloaded it like 5 minutes before this review was put up. I'm happy with my purchase, but dud I do the right thing choosing this over Kirbys Dreamland (for now)?
@Rift I'm just not digging the art style and enemy designs. To me it looks like they've just used leftover Brawl setpieces and slapped Pit into it all.
NoE have FINALLY confirmed we're getting 5 E3 trailers tomorrow and the other 5 next week. Also we get Xevious (3D Classics) and Marios Picross in July.
For anyone in the UK, I highly recommend you don't buy this game in a few months instore at GAME or Gamestation (New or Preowned). It'll have someone elses save file on and you'll never get rid of it because the staff like to play on stuff and still sell it as "New".
I bought a DS Lite brand new from Gamestation once. It had already been set up, and was covered in greasy fingerprints, and had the name Elliot on it. Of course I immediately returned it and the guy at the till; Elliot, gave me my refund. Heh.

Re: Rumour: Yoshi 3DS, Super Mario 3D Land Demo and More
Hopefully if the demo part is true, it'll go live DURING the conference. That'd be great.
This is Nintendo though so the demo would probably go up after the game is released
Re: MotoHeroz Races to North America on 15th September
If they reduce the price in Europe to account for the huge gap in releases then I'll get it. If not then Byebye.
Re: Dragon Quest X Requires Online Connection
I've personally never been a big fan of online gameplay, especially when you have to pay.
I'll gladly buy this if there are no subscriptions involved.
Re: BIT.TRIP COMPLETE and SAGA Trailer is Hard to BEAT
CORE blimey. When are these out in Europe?
Re: Nintendo Download: 8th September 2011 (Europe)
Still waiting on Starwing, Yoshi's Island, DK64, Mario Party 1 and 3, etc.
Re: Flame Red 3DS Heats Up Australia from 22nd September
@Raptor78, Couldn't have put it better myself!
Re: Nintendo Download: 1st September (Europe)
This guy says they run at 60hz, I can't tell the difference personally. Do hz even apply to a handheld?

Re: Nintendo Download: 1st September (Europe)
@ToadFan, Nope
This is the first ever week since the eShop launched that there hasn't been a Game Boy game/3D Classic.
Re: North American NES Ambassador Games Announced
Nintendo of Europe will probably announce our games in November or something. Maybe we'll have the Ambassador Tool by then!
Re: Professor Layton's London Life Won't Make It to Europe
Well as I said in the first comment. Not buying it.
Re: Professor Layton's London Life Will Make It to Europe
That's okay then. There was no way I was going to pay more for this game than Americans when it has "100 hours" less content than their version.
Re: These Are The 10 NES Ambassador Games in Japan
Not a bad list, but NES Open Tour Golf is atrocious. I downloaded it on Wii the night it was put on VC as an impulse buy and barely got 5 minutes play out of it before spending years regretting buying it.
Re: Europe Gets Zelda: Skyward Sword CD and Bundle Too
I think I'll take the same attitude as Nintendo of Europe and say I'll buy it, but then not actually bother, just like they've done with the Ambassador Tool.
Re: Inazuma Eleven Finally Makes it to UK Today
How is it for someone who has no interest in football/socka?
Re: New Wii Design Could Go As Low as £80
The Wii looks much better with the Wii logo horizontal.
Re: Let's Create! Pottery on DSiWare This Week
and time can do so much
Re: Let's Create! Pottery on DSiWare This Week
So I heard this game costs FOUR MILLION DOLLAS?
Re: Rumour: Nintendo Readying Big Announcement Next Month
It'll be Pokemon Chalk and Cheese versions for 3DS, out in Japan March 2012, and Europe and the US November 2014.
Re: Review: Xenoblade Chronicles (Wii)
Only RPG's I really like are the main Pokemon series and Paper Mario/Mario & Luigi.
Will I like this?
Note: I couldn't get into MH Tri at all. Is it anything like that?
Re: Talking Point: What Was the Best Super NES Game Ever?
Super Mario World or Super Metroid. Can't decide.
Re: Nintendo Download: 18th August 2011 (North America)
@Link79 I don't make sarcy comments based on what you spend your money on, so perhaps you could show the same courtesy.
Re: Nintendo Download: 18th August 2011 (North America)
I downloaded Urban Champion, and am finding it pretty fun. It's simple, and a good time waster.
Re: Nintendo DS Sales Figures Make Wii's Look Tiny
I have 100 DS games, not including DSiWare. I can't remember the exact number for Wii, but it's around 80 not including VC/WiiWare.
Re: Guillemot: "Assassin's Creed Wii U Won't Be Revelations"
I cringe when I see that guy. He's so ugly and has such an annoying voice.
Re: First Impressions: Metal Gear Solid: Snake Eater 3D
Other impressions have stated that the game does not run very well at all. I think most people will be buying the PS3 HD Collection which includes HD versions of this, MGS2 and Peace Walker for probably the same price.
Re: Review: Game & Watch Gallery (3DS Virtual Console / Game Boy)
It's out in Europe this Thursday for £2.70, along with Xevious (3D Classic) and some DSiWare.

Re: Review: Game & Watch Gallery (3DS Virtual Console / Game Boy)
Hopefully NoE will announce this as a Thursday release here tomorrow.
Is it still worth buying if you own all 9 DSiWare G&W games, as well as Game & Watch Gallery for Game Boy Advance?
Re: Nintendo Download: 14th July 2011 (Europe)
Is Mario's Picross worth getting for someone who owns Mario's Super Picross (VC), Picross DS and Picross 3D?
Re: Review: QIX (Game Boy)
I downloaded it like 5 minutes before this review was put up. I'm happy with my purchase, but dud I do the right thing choosing this over Kirbys Dreamland (for now)?
Re: Rumour: Kid Icarus: Uprising to Miss 2011 in Europe
@Rift I'm just not digging the art style and enemy designs. To me it looks like they've just used leftover Brawl setpieces and slapped Pit into it all.
Re: Rumour: Kid Icarus: Uprising to Miss 2011 in Europe
I don't mind. The game looks pretty generic anyway.
Re: 3D Classics Urban Champion Coming to Brawl on eShop Soon
It'll probably be on the EU eShop a month after the US and double the price. £15.10 or something dumb like that.
Re: European 3DS eShop Gets 3D Trailers Tomorrow
^ Got a source for that?
Re: European 3DS eShop Gets 3D Trailers Tomorrow
For making the effort of adding the trailers I'll be rewarding them by adding a tenner and downloading Kirbys Dreamland
Re: Wii Has a Barren Summer Ahead in Europe
Pretty sure Mario Party 9 is scheduled for 2012 unfortunately.
Re: European DS Fans, These Are Your Big Games of 2011
Was hoping Kirby Mass Attack would be dated.
Also, please localise Pokemon Typing
Re: European 3DS eShop Gets 3D Trailers Tomorrow
carina of Time! lol
Re: Nintendo Download: 30th June 2011 (Europe)
NoE have FINALLY confirmed we're getting 5 E3 trailers tomorrow and the other 5 next week. Also we get Xevious (3D Classics) and Marios Picross in July.
Re: Nintendo Download: 30th June 2011 (Europe)
Update's live. Still no E3 trailers. I won't be buying anything until they're up.
Re: Nintendo Download: 30th June 2011 (Europe)
@65 The UK eShop updates at 2pm UK time.
Re: Nintendo Download: 30th June 2011 (Europe)
I'd download Kirby if the price wasn't so pathetic. Even the lower Game Boy price point of £2.70 would have been too much for a game with 5 levels.
Re: Xenoblade Chronicles Bundle Pack is Beautiful
Lol rubbing it in a bit for the NAers
Re: RE Mercenaries 3D Save Data Will Not Die
For anyone in the UK, I highly recommend you don't buy this game in a few months instore at GAME or Gamestation (New or Preowned). It'll have someone elses save file on and you'll never get rid of it because the staff like to play on stuff and still sell it as "New".
I bought a DS Lite brand new from Gamestation once. It had already been set up, and was covered in greasy fingerprints, and had the name Elliot on it. Of course I immediately returned it and the guy at the till; Elliot, gave me my refund. Heh.
Re: Wii RPG Outrage Floods Official Nintendo Facebook
I agree with @19 Where's our ExciteBots, Mario Super Sluggers and Fatal Frame IV?
Those would hold me over until Skyward Sword. I was hoping Wii Play Motion would last me a while but I've got a Platinum Medal on all 12 games.
Re: Wii RPG Outrage Floods Official Nintendo Facebook
I don't drink tea and I hate people who do.
Re: Japanese Virtual Console list - July 2011
Looking forward to downloading G&W Gallery.
Re: Mystery Case Files Investigates Europe on 9th September
Why do they do this? Release nothing for months then release two games on the same day. Well I'll have to skip this now to get Starfox 64 3D
Re: Kirby Gets His Own TV Channel in Europe Tomorrow
I still can't grasp why it's free. Must be a catch. Maybe there's advertising shoved in there.
If not and it genuinely is free, then thanks NoE for doing something right for once.
Re: Kirby Gets His Own TV Channel in Europe Tomorrow
@Cipher, thanks bro.
Re: Kirby Gets His Own TV Channel in Europe Tomorrow
Is this for the UK too or mainland Europe only?
