@Xaessya You've found out there secret....Nintendo shall soon be at your door to put a black bag over your head to take you away to places unknown. It was nice knowing you.
Gotta say this game is fun. Toad Scramble adds an element of cutthroat playing to the mix that is only akin to monopoly (which always ends up a flipped over board in my house).
I wasn't interested in the game until I heard the file size...has me thinking there will be a bunch of content in the game. I've got to rethink things.
Its a good thing, everyone is on pins and needles trying to dredge up any information to be had about it. Every article, forum, or reddit discussion about it just adds more publicity. Same thing happened with Zelda: BotW people gave up on it, then Nintendo drops the mic at E3.
At this point its best to wait and see what will be what, instead of speculating endlessly over unknown, and seemingly known information.
@FX102A The DLC that is available in no way has anything to do with the core game being incomplete. Heist was solid before the DLC and much more so afterwards.
@SLIGEACH_EIRE it just truly sucks for those who don't have access to a retailer to buy it physically (sad that in 2017 this still an issue in some parts of the world).
EDIT: It depends on if you buying from the UK or Not, the UK is pretty much getting the same price as physical for the same price, just those in the EU who are going to pay extra, if the physical version there will be priced lower.
@Phil_Kavadias That's kinda like saying you don't like shooters, FIFA, Madden, or NFL games anymore. What's to hold on to? They are essentially the same games repeated over and over again.
@kamikazilucas Just be happy we're even getting the game, even two months later is GREAT for Europe, we have host of games that came out after 6 months at the least. I'm not going to complain about 2 months.
It would be stupid of them not support it despite its age. Its one of the best console, albeit a handheld, out there today. The sheer diversity of games it has already, not to mention the games that have yet to be localized that already look fantastic (Monster Hunter: Stories, Dragon Ball Fusion, etc.).
While the NX might be useful as a hybrid, most people won't take it that far to leave the house with it, since its price will likely be steep, most 3DS/2DS owners don't take their systems out though its one of the system's selling points, and on the cheaper side, in terms of costs.
Hoping we get those coveted Japanese games, coupled with how long localization can take, we could see 3DS support into 2018, however improbable.
I'm so conflicted. I want to buy the game. But I have so a massive backlog, and this game definitely won't help that with 100+ hours.
I still have to get through the last 2 Ace Attorneys, Fates (All of Them), RF4, Fantasy Life, XC, and XCX, not to mention Sun/Moon in November, lest not forget BotW. I need someone to talk me down

Re: Apollo Justice: Ace Attorney Makes the Jump from DS to Smart Devices
@Snargledon I literally stopped playing it because of not being able to track it down physically, and that the emulation just sucked.
Re: Monster Hunter Stories Takes Number One Spot in Japan, But Falls Well Short of Main Series Sales
@cyrus_zuo Dragonball Fusions did about the same numbers and we're still getting it localized. NEVER give up hope!

Re: Multiple Discount Options Coming with SteamWorld Heist on Wii U
This is very tempting with 33% being essentially 50% off the normal price. I just hope the HD is worth it.
