It was quite fun little game and the hidden tutorial game section for the Federation Force was quite cool.
I had fun with it, would maybe play it even more if there were more variations than one arena and also if there was some tournament system and lots of different colours for teams etc.
Going to be buying it in one week when the European release finally appears. Quite dumb that they did not release it at the same time in America and Europe. 10 years of development and all.
There's now a new platinum points thing going on in gc.nintendo.de for Gamescom. 40 points up for grabs. Don't know if there is any secret mission this time like in E3.
@tuberbuba Never going to happen. Since Nicalis came in to mess the game's release, the original version was quietly removed and that was the Wii U version.
I'm so happy that I got the refund for the game in Kickstarter from the Greek dev. I heard not all have even received the promised refunds. Mine took also a few months. It really sucks as that game looked amazing.
I knew from the moment that Nicalis jumped in as the publisher that the game would go to dev hell.
Even though I don't like sequels in general, it would be amazing to have Red Steel 3 and Zombi 2 and one more Rayman game properly done as an exclusive by Michel Ancel.
I do. Never even heard of it before, but now I'm really interested about it. Read the review and some other details now that I know that such a game exists.
Shame that I already bought Earthbound Beginnings with normal price during summer.
Hana Samurai is however really interesting, I think this kind of deal is especially great and Nintendo should do more to promote their own obscure forgotten games that 3DS especially is filled with since 2011.
Hana Samurai is surprisingly now in Europe at least in My Nintendo with -30% discount with some platinum coins. Now that I finally have Zelda Picross redeemed, I think I will take this game's discount next.
Comcept is really doing nice work, it's been over a week since the European release of the game and I'm still missing my Ray and Retro Hero DLCs on my Wii U game. Comcept isn't replying to my mails, one guy from Mighty No 9 forums is and Humble Bundle is claiming I have the DLC already since my code in HB says game + DLC, but in the game I have no DLC anywhere. Also I can't even choose Maniac or any other mode since the game starts always on Normal difficulty.
I'm sure at this point at the dummies at Comcept sent a regular Wii U code to Humble Bundle and claimed it to be including the DLC.
@CrazedCavalier shows how much I've followed the project and I'm a KS backer!
Been burned a long time ago because of how horrible the project has been handled. Also annoys me that they give Sony's platforms cross platform purchase and not to Nintendo with Wii U and 3DS.
Ahahaha what the hell? Inafune has launch day DLC with Mighty Number 9. That guy is seriously one of the worst developers around. He has the guts to chop part of the game to DLC after years of delays.
Awesome that finally TMS#FE is here. I hope I get my limited edition that I pre-ordered, would be sad not to get it.
Quite a silent surprise to see The Devil's Third get a permanent discount, I think it should go still 10 euros even lower from that in order to get some new buyers.
A really big huge THANK YOU to the devs that this is coming as crossbuy. Nintendo themselves and all third parties should take note of that. Only a few indies are doing it right. Renegade kid and Drinkbox for example.
Kick & Fennick is ok, but way too late coming to Wii U. Got it already last year through Sony's PS+ rental service that lets you pay for renting games, I wish they would change that so you could actually own the games.
@tobibra Yes, I suppose in theory at least it should work. I have a European account. I have tried the logging during three last weeks and in two weeks I've got the double points. In one week I did not get it, so I'm not sure what triggers it.
@FubumblR I usually get that reward twice when I log into nintendo.com and nintendo.co.uk at the same time with my account. I've gotten several times 150 weekly points in total.
I received my money back from Antonis so I give points for his honesty in the end. I knew this project was going to be full of problems from the moment Tyrone Rodriguez and Nicalis entered as the publisher.
I backed the game as a PC and Wii U game on Kickstarter all those years ago. It was also supposed to come out on Linux, Mac, iOS and Android.
The thing that is weird is that last update on Kickstarter was in November 2015, Antonis wrote then that the development is ready and only bug fixing is left and optimizing. He also wrote that he has time for other projects now that the development is finishing and he even released a Street of Rage style game in Steam for PC on Early Access.
What happened then in the past seven months that lead to cancelling of all the versions promised originally in the Kickstarter? I hope Nlife will get the truth out.
I have actually forgotten when was the last time Nintendo actually did something useful with 3DS updates and brought new features?
The most weird part of these homebrew attacking stability updates are that they are even changing the whole version of the firmware even though the updates are just really tiny background updates to plug holes that enable homebrew.
No unique GamePad elements, no integration with Miiverse, nothing special to Nintendo or the Wii U.
That with the inclusion of the new not as good soundtrack as the original makes this not a must buy. Thankfully I have the PC version already since years ago.
Still fun to see it finally on the platform where it was supposed to be since the start. A Nintendo home console.
Seems incredible that they did not even add Miiverse to the game, wth?

Re: Video: New Metroid Prime: Federation Force Trailer Arrives, and It's Still Fighting Dislikes

Re: The Next Shin'en Game Will Be on Nintendo Platforms
Shin'en F-Zero on NX would blow my mind.
I also hope Wayforward would get in even more closer development with Nintendo on future NX stuff.
Re: Armikrog
Excellent that it is finally going to be released. I remember the Kickstarter campaign, but never backed the game.
I heard it is somewhat short, but that's completely ok for me as the price seems fine.
Re: Nintendo Download: 25th August (Europe)
Armikrog with that price seems really great. I've heard rumours that the game is quite short, but for that price it seems reasonable.
Phoenix Wright demo is also excellent news.
By the way, wasn't Retro Hero DLC supposed to be exclusive for backers of the Mighty No. 9 Kickstarter campaign?
Re: E3 2016: 60 Platinum Points Up For Grabs in Legend of Zelda My Nintendo Missions
There's now a new platinum points thing going on in gc.nintendo.de for Gamescom. 40 points up for grabs. Don't know if there is any secret mission this time like in E3.
Re: Sega Announces Puyo Puyo Chronicle For 3DS To Celebrate 25 Years Of Popping Blobs
This would be excellent in the western market.
I'm still amazed that we are getting the Sega 3D classics collection that includes Puyo Puyo 2.
Re: A Nicalis Sale is Live on the North American 3DS and Wii U eShops
@tuberbuba Never going to happen. Since Nicalis came in to mess the game's release, the original version was quietly removed and that was the Wii U version.

Re: Nintendo Download: 18th August (Europe)
@Tuulenpoika Never going to happen since Nicalis doesn't think Europe even exists.
We have never even received Ikachan or Grinsia.
Re: Nintendo Download: 11th August (Europe)
Mega Man Legacy Collection in discount is nice, also maybe it would be about time to get Hakuoki: Memories of the Shinsengumi?
Super Paper Mario is cool, but the VC is always quite a lot too pricy. Would maybe get it if the launch discounts were back for Wii VC.
Re: Reminder: Points Can't Be Added to the DSi Shop After 30th September
I wish Wayforward's Mighty Milky Way and Mighty Flip Champs were released as proper 3DS games. Would like to try those out, but not as DSi games.
Re: Ubisoft Has "Surprises" Yet to be Announced for Nintendo NX
Beyond Good & Evil 2 would be a dream.
Even though I don't like sequels in general, it would be amazing to have Red Steel 3 and Zombi 2 and one more Rayman game properly done as an exclusive by Michel Ancel.
Re: Nintendo Download: 4th August (Europe)
Zen Pinball is the only shining light of this week. But that's not for me.
Re: Renegade Kid Has Kindly Offered To Port Sonic Mania To Nintendo 3DS
I would rather have Renegade Kid release Moon Chronicles in Europe. Where is that game?!?
Re: Video: Check Out Some Intriguing Metroid Prime: Federation Force Footage
Graphically the game does not look that good, but the premise of the game and the overall feeling I get from the videos is really promising.
Very much waiting for this game to come, Blast Ball is a very good little game especially with N3DS controls.
@LegendOfPokemon How about Metroid Pinball.
Re: Miitomo Update to Version 1.4.0 Lets You Use That Annoying Candy To Win Game Tickets
I wonder will this ever be released properly in Europe? I guess Nintendo just doesn't care enough.
Re: Minecraft: Wii U Edition is Receiving Another Patch Soon
Would maybe get the game, if they would make use of the gamepad for inventory and crafting etc.
Re: Darksiders is Coming to Wii U
Excellent, I have it for PC already, but got to support this awesome company and will be buying Darksiders for sure when it comes for Wii U.
Re: Project Sonic 2017 Confirmed for Nintendo NX Release
It's beyond weird if Sonic Mania isn't coming to Nintendo platforms.
Re: Nintendo Download: 21st July (Europe)
Looks like it's demo download week.
Re: Two More Discounts Arrive on My Nintendo in Europe
@Warioware
I do. Never even heard of it before, but now I'm really interested about it. Read the review and some other details now that I know that such a game exists.

Re: Sakura Samurai: Art of the Sword
Now in My Nintendo platinum coins discount in Europe until 1st October 2016.

Hana Samurai is surprisingly now in Europe at least in My Nintendo with -30% discount with some platinum coins. Now that I finally have Zelda Picross redeemed, I think I will take this game's discount next.
Re: Aksys is Bringing Chase: Cold Case Investigations - Distant Memories to the 3DS This Year
Oh wow, it looks just as awesome as their previous games. Will be for sure bought if it comes to Europe.
Re: New Atlus and SEGA Publishing Deal is Great News For European Gamers
That is very good news.
I just hope we don't end up crying like an anime fan on prom night because of this.

Re: Renegade Kid Titles Are Going Cheap On The North American 3DS eShop
Hmm yeah, still waiting for Moon Chronicles to come to Europe.
@RenegadeJools didn't you write once that when the whole game with all the episodes is released in America, it would come to Europe?
Is there anything to expected on that front? Does the game still have a release date someday in the future for Europe?
I own pretty much all Regegade Kid games that have been released in Europe since you guys make great games.
Re: Nintendo Outlines Ambitious Plans For UK's Hyper Japan Festival 2016
What about Dragon Quest VIII?
Re: 7th Dragon III Code: VFD is Getting a Demo on the North American eShop
So is this again one of those games that will never see release in Europe?
Re: Sonic Team is Working on a New Sonic Game
My only hope is that the get rid of the absolutely stupid homing attack that has plagued and ruined the gameplay in several past Sonic games.
Musics hopefully are in style of Sonic 2 especially.

Re: E3 2016: Legend of Zelda 3DS HOME Theme and Miitomo My Nintendo Rewards Go Live
I wonder will they ever expand Miitomo to other countries?
One good point would've been now during E3, but nothing happened.
I bet the Pokemon Go release will be also some really crappy regional limited release only.
Re: E3 2016: BOXBOXBOY! is Coming to the 3DS eShop on 30th June
Excellent! I've been craving for the Euro release ever since it was announced for Japan!
Re: Feature: We Chat to Drinkbox Studios About SEVERED for Wii U and 3DS
A really big huge THANK YOU to the devs that this is coming as crossbuy. Nintendo themselves and all third parties should take note of that. Only a few indies are doing it right. Renegade kid and Drinkbox for example.
Re: Runbow Pocket and SEVERED Confirmed for the eShop
Awesome that Severed is crossbuy enabled. All 3DS & Wii U releases should be so by default, it really works well.
All of the games are close to must buys.
Re: Nintendo Download: 16th June (Europe)
Could the Boxboy theme perhaps hint that Europe and Americas is getting the Boxboy sequel soon?
Now that would be amazing if so.
Re: Video: The Stakes Are High in This Shin Megami Tensei IV: Apocalypse Story Trailer
I wonder will this ever come to Europe? Sega and Atlus really do suck.
Re: Poll: Are You Still a Miitomo Regular, or Has The Great Mii Q & A Lost Its Charm?
Still waiting for it to be released globally instead of small regional release like it is now.
Nordic countries are still waiting for Miitomo.
I've downloaded it separately, but no chance to connect my Nintendo Account to it.
Re: Nintendo Download: 2nd June (Europe)
Incredibly weak week for both 3DS and Wii U.
Kick & Fennick is ok, but way too late coming to Wii U. Got it already last year through Sony's PS+ rental service that lets you pay for renting games, I wish they would change that so you could actually own the games.
Re: Video: Touring Video Game Museum "Game On" Finishes Run In Japan, Heads to Norway Next
I visited the museum over ten years ago when it was in Helsinki in Finland.
That was a really great museum back then. Must be even more massive now.
Re: Nintendo Download: 26th May (Europe)
@Ballzilla wait for Thursday, otherwise you will have to pay full price.
Re: Nintendo Download: 26th May (Europe)
Holy crap, what are those sudden permanent Atlus discounts!?!
Re: My Nintendo Discount Applied to Miitomo Drop Game Tickets Reward
@tobibra Yes, I suppose in theory at least it should work. I have a European account. I have tried the logging during three last weeks and in two weeks I've got the double points. In one week I did not get it, so I'm not sure what triggers it.
Try it at least to find out.

Re: Nintendo Download: 12th May (Europe)
Shame that SMB is with the crappy new music instead of original soundtrack.
Capcom games again for sale, shame no new games from Capcom coming up. They should work on the Virtual Console to add more oldies.
