Re: Nintendo Download: 14th February 2013 (Europe)

What's the purpose of re-reviewing Castlevania for the 3DS eShop? That's very thorough of NL but shouldn't the original review still apply?

ps. I think you should add the ability to select multiple options in the poll. Obviously a free title will skew results massively.

Re: How Many Levels of Breakout Is Enough?

Homer_Simpson

This actually looks...ok. Much better than I was expecting with that name. And it looks like the levels are actually unique, rather than randomised like those in AlphaBounce. Still not enough to persuade me to get it, but it at least looks like a fair amount of effort was put into this.

Re: Site News: Nintendo Life's eShop Appearance

Homer_Simpson

Great work guys! Fantastic to see nlife getting the recognition it deserves, I've been following you guys since before the vc-reviews days (You were called vc-archives, right?). I'll buy Gargoyle's Quest now because of this. Keep up the great work!

Re: NES Ambassador Games Available in Europe Now

Homer_Simpson

I've been able to download them in Australia. For some reason they appeared on the 2nd page of the 'Titles You've Downloaded' tab. Nintendo really needs a better way of distributing these so everyone they're available to knows about them.

Re: Guides: 3DS eShop Update FAQ

Homer_Simpson

You will need to find the product within the eShop, follow the process as if to purchase and you will notice that the download button now says ‘Re-Download’

Or in the settings section of the eShop, there is a button which takes you to all the games you have bought.

Re: More Details on Pokedex 3D Come into Focus

Homer_Simpson

How are we meant to get these 'AR markers?' Does Nintendo expect us to buy then? I hope not, but not really sure that would work anyway cause there isn't anything stopping anyone from just posting an image of the code on the Internet.

Re: Nintendo Download: 16th May 2011 (North America)

Is the DS version of Chrono Trigger notably better/ worse than the original? My local games store is selling it for cheap, only about twice the price it'll cost me to download, and I've always preferred having physical copies of games. Which should I go for?

Re: Podcast: Episode 17 - E3 Roundup!

Homer_Simpson

Yeah, and it was the most interesting part of the podcast. It was more of an interview than a discussion though, what I'm suggesting is to get several NL staff and users to participate in a structured discussion of recent Nintendo news. I've had experience running podcasts before, if you get the right mix of people it can make for a really entertaining listen.
This is just a suggestion though of course, you guys are doing a fantastic job as is but I can't help but think a disussion section could really add to the podcast..

Re: Podcast: Episode 17 - E3 Roundup!

Homer_Simpson

Any chance you guys could cut the music when you're talking? I find it to be very distracting. Also, you're doing a great job but I think a non-scripted discussion section could make the podcast more interesting. Get a couple of NL staff and a couple of members and then just run through a list of discussion points, I think that'd work great. And all you need to do it is Skype....

Re: Face Pilot: Fly With Your Nintendo DSi Camera!

Homer_Simpson

It's actually very decent. The handheld play works a lot better than the table top play, and while it's not perfect, under the right conditions it does a very good job. There's also a nice sense of progression, with a very Mario 64 esque way of doing things (a few different objectives for each level, completing enough unlocks another level). Overall, better than I thought.
Also I'm pretty sure the Island level is a very basic
representation of Wuhu island, which I think is awesome.

Re: PilotWings Resort

Homer_Simpson

Hmm...mixed feelings about this. I've been waiting ages for a new PilotWings game, but this is just set on the Wii fit/ Wii Sports Resort island, which you could already fly over in WSR. Ehh..

Re: Nintendo Download: 11th June 2010 (Europe)

Homer_Simpson

Argggh, Tales in a Box didn't come out in Australia. I even loaded up 1000 points this morning to get it! Definitely should've checked if it had actually come out here first, lesson learned.
I wonder if there's any chance of it coming to Australia in the future..

Re: Punch-Out!! Gets Date Down Under

Homer_Simpson

It's about time, damnit. I think this year has been NOAustralia's weakest year for releasing games in a long time...for a while there we were getting nearly all games at the same time as the UK, some even before. It's dissapointing.

Re: Review: Grand Slam Tennis (Wii)

Homer_Simpson

I hated this the first couple of times I played it, then I realised you have to centre the remote after every shot. Now I absolutely love it, probably the best tennis game I've ever played. It definitely does have its faults though, so a sequel could be even better.
