All of the other updates are just compatibility fixes due to games not launching properly from some SD Cards. This has been known for a while over on GameFAQs.

Can't go back to playing Revelations without it now. It controls perfectly with the Circle Pad Pro. I'm getting S ranks on the Raid missions on my first attempt.

Saw her on a video involving promoting Wii Fit outside somewhere once. She referred to the game as "The Wii Fit". I can't respect anyone who says that.

I've been enjoying it. I'm on level 8 with 40 minutes left. I'm sure I had this on GBC as a kid, but I don't think I got past the first or second level lol. I'd give it an 8.

I'll give it one extra week to appear in Europe. Any longer than that and they'll lose out on a purchase. Other companies manage simultaneous eShop releases in NA/EU, so this one should too.

You'd think that early January would be the best time to release the big guns, what with millions of new 3DS owners via Christmas.

If it isn't out here the same day then I won't be buying it.

Can't wait to get my Resi on. My girlfriend already has Cooking Mama 4 but I'll download the demo to show support for demos.

Trying to change my password leads to a page with a load of code and crap.

I've had it since it launched on GBA, and also the Ambassador version. I've always thought it was an okay game but never understood all the praise it gets. It's one of my least favourite Mario platformers. That doesn't mean I think it's a bad game though. I'd give it a 7.

I would get it, but I already have Tetris (Axis)...

I would have preferred Pokemon Emerald to Fire Emblem, but all good.

70'000 in a week is good for the UK.

Yup. Midnight launch. One of my favourite ever consoles. Largest home console game library I've ever owned.

I've made a Bob-ombs only community, but it's different to the Nintendo Life one, as it's Battle as opposed to VS. Inspired by the mode on Double Dash, it's Bob-omb Blast. Feel free to join or share:

Looks like I was the first to join all three. At least it says 0 players anyway :S

I want to get one just to try it out and to say I've got it (It's cheap afterall), but can't find anywhere online selling it.

Someone who works at Nintendo Life, PLEASE answer this for me:

When you do online battles, do they still alternate between Balloon Battle and Coin Runners?

I think he's saying that the game was boring during a specific time in development, but they got it fixed up for the final product.

I've played for over 15 hours, so by default the game is more than a 7/10 in my opinion.

Absolutely love Freakyforms. Was expecting it to be okay but it's far surpassed my expectations. As long as you don't mind creating things you'll enjoy it. I played it for three hours straight.

It's cool, but with limited editions like this I feel weird playing anything that isn't Zelda on it.

I've ordered both from Game.co.uk. Would appreciate some clarification as to whether I'll get them.

Freakyforms for me, and 3D Classics Kirby's Adventure next week

There used to be one in Coventry but they closed it down.

@61

Hotel Dusk
Another Code
Steel Diver
Endless Ocean
Disaster
etc

Mr Iwata's Japanese Training, Nintendinosaurs and Big Boob Academy.

Lovely box art, if I were rich I'd buy both just because they look pretty.

@rudydog13 It's from Tesco in the UK, I've had that cake on my birthday for three years in a row lol.

In Europe we have stars. My total stars earnt since registration is over 60'000, which I'm quite pleased with.

Downloaded TwinBee as I've had £5.20 in my account for a while. It's pretty fun. I like it more than Xevious in terms of gameplay and accessibility.

Killzone Liberation on PSP had online multiplayer patched in, along with medals to obtain in the single player. If the PSP could handle online mode DLC, the 3DS should be able to.

Personally though, I don't care about online. I prefer a good single player experience and/or story.

Some third party games I remember enjoying:

Lady Sia
Ecks vs Sever
Banjo Kazooie: Grunty's Revenge
Spyro: Season of Ice

Developers announcing games AFTER they appear on release schedules and have trailers on the eShop. Whatever next.

As long as it's reasonably priced, I'll download straight away. Anything £5.40 or below is fine.

I'm currently on level 9. I haven't found the game very hard, except for one type of enemy I have trouble with; those stupid blue magician things that hammer you with magic when they face you, who happen to be plentiful in level 9 .

Zelda II is frustratingly hard though.

I'd just like to point out that this Good Feel-developed Yoshi game rumour has surfaced before. I can't remember if it was before or after the 3DS was unveiled at E3 2010, but this exact rumour was being posted a lot last year.

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

If they reduce the price in Europe to account for the huge gap in releases then I'll get it. If not then Byebye.

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.

CORE blimey. When are these out in Europe?

Still waiting on Starwing, Yoshi's Island, DK64, Mario Party 1 and 3, etc.

@Raptor78, Couldn't have put it better myself!

This guy says they run at 60hz, I can't tell the difference personally. Do hz even apply to a handheld?

@ToadFan, Nope

This is the first ever week since the eShop launched that there hasn't been a Game Boy game/3D Classic.

Nintendo of Europe will probably announce our games in November or something. Maybe we'll have the Ambassador Tool by then!

Well as I said in the first comment. Not buying it.

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.

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.
