For anyone who is interested, Radiant Historia: Perfect Chronology, Etrian Odyssey Nexus, Persona Q2 and SMT: Strange Journey are all currently on sale on the 3DS eShop.
Excellent news. I thought the first half of the game was thoroughly enjoyable, but as the difficulty increases during the late game the design flaws become incredibly irritating. These changes seem to address most of my personal criticisms and I'm really looking forward to playing through it again.
Pre-ordered Moon yesterday, haven't played a Pokémon game since Ruby on the GBA, but all the fantastic reviews have convinced me this is the time to jump back in.
@readyletsgo "Has anyone, ever, done one if these surveys?"
I did one for DJ Hero long before that was announced and pretty much everything that was in the survey was in the finished product. I get the impression that the game must have a least been at the prototype stage and that the survey was more about how to pitch the game to the public and not whether to make it in the first place. Personally I wasn't interested, but clearly others were.
Well that was absolutely, totally, completely and utterly fantastic. Played the demo with a huge grin on my face the whole way through and then played it again straight after I finished. I can't wait for the full thing now; still two weeks to go, arglebeh!!
Its desperately sad to see what little impact Bayonetta 2 is having in Japan. Hopefully when it is released in other territories it fairs significantly better.
People are far too sensitive, including this developer. It's just business; from Nintendo's perspective third-party games are a low priority because they usually sell poorly and therefore do not generate much in terms of licensing revenue, there just isn't enough profit when compared to their own first-party franchises. From the third-party puiblishers' perspective, their games don't usually sell as well on Nintendo consoles so the funds allocated for those versions are low, compromising game quality and damaging sales. Add in the weak Wii U sales performance and you have a vicious circle of Nintendo not commiting to third-party publishers and vice-versa; it has been this way since the N64 and will probably continue to be this way in future.

@MarioPhD The Wii U should have been called Super Wii. Just imagine Mario saying it.

Just bought FAST: Racing League on the Wii in preparation for this and have enjoyed what I've played so far. Hopefully this can be even better.

Re: Keep Your Eyes Peeled for this Orchestral Metroid Album
That sounds awesome. If the rest is up to the standard of the trailer than its a definite buy from me.
Re: Wii U Version Of Project CARS Drops To The Back Of The Starting Grid
Very disappointing news, was looking forward to this. Now I'm worried it might not get released at all.
@Damo Any chance you can contact Bandai Namco or Slightly Mad for a reason for this delay?
