This game is great, but I gave up at one part where I had to fight this large boss surrounded by mines to defend the native village. It killed my party in 3 turns. I want to get back to it, but I can't stand grinding.
Good to hear this is a good starting point. I've been wanting to play the Professor Layton games for a while, so I'll start now. London Life sounds great, too.
I'm hoping for Golden Sun, Either F-Zero, Advance Wars, Wario Land 4 and Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga. Unfortunately, I think Nintendo wants to stick with shorter, more playable/likeable franchises, so we may not get RPGs or Turn-Based Strategy games. I hope I'm wrong though.
Looks like I might need to skip the 3DS version. This looks like it has a lot more content. It seems like they're just releasing the games again to get more money.
This came too late. It seems like they are just trying to sell their old stock. There were virtually no decent $19.99 games for the Wii before now. I hope they get ahead with the 3DS.
@ballkirby1 It will be for 3D Classics, so most likely it is the original with 3D visuals. This is good news. I'm hoping they release more free games in the future, so we have more than two.
I've gotten 3 hits, not including my friends. I've brought it pretty much everywhere, but only turn wireless on when I'm at Malls or Wal-Mart or somewhere that might have streetpass users. I actually find myself wanting to go out more just to get more streetpass hits. I am kind of dissapointed that many people don't fill out their Mii information on Streetpass, it seems like they aren't using it themselves. They also have very few puzzle pieces. I don't like how Streetpass Quest wants you to pass people multiple times, though.
I am pretty dissapointed with SpotPass. wWith the charging cradle and notificatations, Nintendo seems to want users to keep their 3DS on all the time to recieve spotpass stuff. Why would we want to do this if we get nothing? So far, I haven't received anything at all since the notifications on day one and I think those were built in to the system.
I'd like to know why this game is apparently bad. When I tried it, it was great. I was considering getting it but I'll have to wait for a few reviews now. Without this or Lego Star Wars III, which is apparantly bad as well, I have no clue what to get as a second game. Maybe I'll wait and pick up something else...
Quite a few games that interest me there. I'm interested in Pilotwings, Nintendogs + Cats and LSW. Theres also the Sims, Steel Diver and Asphalt or Ridge Racer. Unfortunately, there are no titles I want for sure. I'll probably pick up only one game, and wait for some reviews.
I'll probably get the 3DS version of this, then. As well as the 3DS Lego Star Wars Clone Wars. But I'll stick with Wii for Lego Harry Potter Years 5-7. This is going to be expensive.
I haven't really played Cave Story much. I only have the WiiWare Demo. I would like to get ths but I'll have to see. I'd want the ability to play the with the original art instead of just the 3D. I still don't get why we have to pay to download/buy Cave Story on a console, but can get it for free online.
I liked Guitar Hero... I hope they make another in 15 years. I don't like it when developers make a new game in thier biggest franchise every year (CoD, Halo). Its good to explore new concepts. Nintendo is great at this. Imagine how boring it would be if they made a Mario game every year and never made anything else. I like how Nintendo has so many series to choose from when they make a new game. That makes retro revivals so great.

Re: Havok Physics and Animation to Power Wii U Games
This is great, but I disliked Super Smash Bros. Brawl's physics, so I hope SSB Wii U doesn't use Havok.
Re: Wow, CIRCLE Entertainment Really Likes DSiWare
Bookstore Dream reminds me of Game Dev Story. I hope it turns out like that.
Re: Atlus Reprints Radiant Historia, Due Next Month
This game is great, but I gave up at one part where I had to fight this large boss surrounded by mines to defend the native village. It killed my party in 3 turns. I want to get back to it, but I can't stand grinding.
Re: Review: GO Series: Undead Storm (DSiWare)
Would this still be good if I only played single player?
Re: Mario Party 2 Joins the Club Nintendo Rewards Gang
The games last all month, ending on the 29th.
Re: Iwata Hints at Upcoming Swapnote Update
I stopped using Swapnote less then a week after release. Mainly because nobody sent me notes. That's something Nintendo can't fix.
Re: Competition: Win escapeVektor: Chapter One [EU, NA and AUS]
I'm dissapointed that this is a Twitter contest. I would have liked to enter.
Re: Two New Characters Take To the Mario Kart 7 Grid
I couldn't care less about Honey Queen. I have no clue how Nintendo chose her over some other characters.
Re: Review: Professor Layton and the Last Specter (DS)
Good to hear this is a good starting point. I've been wanting to play the Professor Layton games for a while, so I'll start now. London Life sounds great, too.
Re: Limited Edition Zelda eShop Cards Confirmed for Europe
Don't import one. I'm pretty sure they won't work outside of the States.
Re: Limited Edition Zelda eShop Cards Confirmed for Europe
Meanwhile, we Canadians still don't have any eShop cards.
Re: Talking Point: The Role of the N64 on the 3DS
I think a lower price point would be a great way to encourage owners of the original to buy a remake, or at least accept it.
Re: de Blob Developer Blue Tongue Shuts Up Shop
Blue Tongue was a great studio that will be missed.
Re: Iwata: We Will Do Paid Download Content for Wii U and 3DS
I'm hoping for retro track DLC in Mario Kart 7.
Re: Talking Point: The GBA Games You Want on 3DS Virtual Console
I'm hoping for Golden Sun, Either F-Zero, Advance Wars, Wario Land 4 and Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga. Unfortunately, I think Nintendo wants to stick with shorter, more playable/likeable franchises, so we may not get RPGs or Turn-Based Strategy games. I hope I'm wrong though.
Re: BIT.TRIP SAGA Brightens Up 3DS on September 13th
Since this has no bonus content, I think I'll chose COMPLETE.
Re: Solatorobo Tracks Down a North American Publisher
I'm glad the DS is getting a new RPG, since the 3DS doesn't have any.
Re: Gaijin Games Details New Content in BIT.TRIP COMPLETE
Looks like I might need to skip the 3DS version. This looks like it has a lot more content. It seems like they're just releasing the games again to get more money.
Re: First BIT.TRIP SAGA Screens Incoming
The 3D image was cool, but I found the 3D pop-out stars distracting. I hope more developers show 3D images over the internet like this.
Re: Rumour: Nintendo to Launch "Wii Select" Budget Range
This came too late. It seems like they are just trying to sell their old stock. There were virtually no decent $19.99 games for the Wii before now. I hope they get ahead with the 3DS.
Re: eShop Will Launch with Free 3D Excitebike Game
@ballkirby1 It will be for 3D Classics, so most likely it is the original with 3D visuals.
This is good news. I'm hoping they release more free games in the future, so we have more than two.
Re: Nintendo Download: 25th April 2011 (North America)
This isn't a bad week for DSiWare, I'll be getting Inchworm and First Flight. But not until the eShop launches.
Re: Talking Point: StreetPass - Is Silent Communication the Future?
I think Nintendo needs to advertise this more to get the word out and so more people actually use this.

Re: Another Zelda Remake for 3DS?
I'd rather see this as a 3D Classic than it be remade.
Re: New Nintendo Console at E3?
I hope they announce a new console. I probably wouldn't get this for a while, though.
Re: Get Animated at Inchworm Animation's Impending Release
As moosa said, I'm worried about the resolution differences. Otherwise, I'll buy this.
Re: Features: Nintendo 3DS Launch Game Buyer's Guide
I need a new 3DS game. I'm waiting for Lego Pirates 3D. I'm very interested in Pilotwings, but I'll most likely wait for the price to drop.
Re: Sony CEO Refers to Nintendo Handhelds as "Babysitting Tools"
Why do people say stuff llike this? It is seemingly obvious the backlash he will recieve, and he will be proven wrong.
Re: Ubisoft's Petz Fantasy 3D Contains Lethal Levels of Cuteness
Does anyone seriously buy this junk? I cannot see them making a profit on this type of game.
Re: Get a Gold Blanka Figurine Via SpotPass Now

Re: Pac-Man & Galaga Dimensions Includes Modern Remakes
I have a feeling this will be low on content or terrible. I hope I'm wrong.
Re: Nintendo Download: 4th April 2011 (North America)
I wasn't going to get any more DSiWare until May with the update, but now I'm not sure...
Re: Win 1 of 3 Nintendo 3DS' & 4 Games with Ubisoft (UK)
Another launch promotion for the UK. Why am I not suprised?
Re: Asphalt 3D Launch Trailer Mirrors, Signals and Manoeuvres
@LEGEND MAROID NGamer gave it 65%. A french review gave it 5/10./

Re: Review: LEGO Star Wars III: The Clone Wars (Wii)
Will you guys have a review of the DS one up soon?
Re: Nintendo Likely to Retain Price Control in 3DS eShop
If developers could set the price of their games, they would set them at $1 to compete with the app store. Nintendo doesn't want this to happen.
Re: Review: Pilotwings Resort (3DS)
Off Topic Question:
Will you guys have either an Asphalt 3D or Lego Star Wars III review up by Sunday?
Re: Nintendo Download: 21st March 2011 (North America)
I'll probably get D-Tank on the 3DS eventually.
Re: Hands On: Nintendo 3DS
Great article. Are you going to do a hands on of the included applications? (Photos, Mii Maker, etc.)
Re: 3DS Arrives at Nintendo Life
Are there any issues with the buttons? I heard they weren't as crisp as the DSi's. Does the system feel fragile?
Re: DSiWare Users Going Back to BASIC with PetitComputer
I'll have to see if this comes with a tutorial.
Re: Nintendo Announces North American 3DS Games Line-Up
Quite a few games that interest me there. I'm interested in Pilotwings, Nintendogs + Cats and LSW. Theres also the Sims, Steel Diver and Asphalt or Ridge Racer. Unfortunately, there are no titles I want for sure. I'll probably pick up only one game, and wait for some reviews.
Re: 3DS Comes with Mario, Pikmin, Kirby, Link and Samus
I hope AR card support isn't dropped after launch.
Re: Nintendo Europe Stars Catalogue Gets Fans, Bags, Points
Lucky, I'd rather Nintendo Points cards then Game and Watches.
Re: Captain Jack Sparrow and Crew Jumping Ship to 3DS
I'll probably get the 3DS version of this, then. As well as the 3DS Lego Star Wars Clone Wars. But I'll stick with Wii for Lego Harry Potter Years 5-7. This is going to be expensive.
Re: Cave Story is Coming to 3DS in Full Retail Form

Re: Reggie Defends High Download, Retail Price Point
The way iPods/iPhones are treated as "Gaming Devices" is an insult to real gaming devices.
