This is good news, Nintendo's lack of good content for gold coins, and their expiring in spite of that was going to leave a very sour taste in my mouth.
Platinum coins I'm fine with they are free and easy to get.
@MysticX I won't be an early adopter anyway. Unless that's the only way I can get my hands on Monster Hunter: Stories, then my hands are tied. I sure hope noone from Nintendo is reading this.
@Trinexx I imagine Yo-Kai Watch doing much better in Europe because we get the games much later. Most will be about finished, if not ready for change of pace, with Sun and Moon by Spring 2017.
@Oubie With the staggered releases Europe gets 3DS will go well into 2018, but probably only a handful of games. Unless they decided to release some of those Japanese only games they've been announcing lately (At least 4 big name games come to mind).
I'm glad I didn't buy Super Mario 3D World. Almost pulled the trigger 2 times last month, and once this month. Still on the fence with Captain Toad....wish it was two player
@TheNomad I've almost given up on it honestly. I want to use my gold coins, but they aren't giving me anything worth spending them on...even if I know they are going to poof after 6 months (1 month now).
"even though European gamers have had to wait a while as gamers in North America get" This fragment of the paragraph alone brings up all the sad memories I have as a gamer in Europe
Bethesda games belong on PC, everything else is an inferior port. Not the console's fault, mind you. I'd rather not see them on the NX just to stop the future cry's of "Inferior" later on down the line.
Ok that's the 3rd time I've seen Resident Evil Revelations on sale. How is the multiplayer feature? Is it download play or does my wife and I both need to buy the game?
I'm sure Nintendo hasn't abandoned it, its just that the have no clue what to do next with the series. I can only think they could do next is VR/AR, but that's a long way off.
With the look of all the design speculations its not making even want to bother with botw on that platform. I can't imagine playing it that way at all.
@CrazedCavalier I dunno. I'm with @Jeronan on this one. Yo-Kai Watch looks a lot better than the latest pokemon series. I never understood why they look so jagged, but Yo-Kai Watch looks a whole lot smoother.
@StevetheIcecube Ah ok, I not sure about the game. I haven't heard anything about it, but I know in the cartoon its there about every 5 or so episodes.
@PlaytendoGuy I felt the same way, but then it grew on me. The turn based system has been done to death. At least this one keeps me moving throughout the entire battle.
@crzysortagamer @BinaryFragger That both sucks, and sounds awesome. I always say I want a long game, then I end up never finishing them. I once stopped an rpg right before the last boss just cause I didn't have the drive to push through to the end of it.
@DekersHekers I hear you can wait since the the first game is somewhat retcond in the second one. Also the sequel is supposedly much better than the original.
@ShikabaneHime13 It should, I heard that it is way better than the first one. I personally like the different play style, and battle system compared pokemon, which hasn't hanged...ever.
@Jolt I'm with you on that, but I've heard that the 2nd and 3rd games are much better. Plus I think they retcon the first game in Yo-Kai Watch 2 anyway, so if you ever decided to give it another chance, know that you aren't missing anything.
Why all the hate? Its obviously aimed at kids. It'll sell some games, maybe even some hardware. The thing that people are failing to see is that NOA is finally got a fire under their butts to advertise. Should be welcomed, let their PR teams pop their cherry, they'll get better eventually.

Re: 3DS Nintendo Direct Confirmed for 1st September
Just give me Monster Hunter: Stories confirmation, that's all I really need.
Re: Video: Blue Toads Get Stealthy in Latest Paper Mario: Color Splash 'Rescue V' Show
The more I see of the game the more I like it, but then again this is from a guy who has never played a paper mario game.
P.S. If noone thought "Metal Geeear" when the ship came out, please leave.

@SLIGEACH_EIRE Pfft so what Nastrasligeach_eire. I won't give you all my money until you tell me what the NX is!
Re: Nintendo of America Unveils Nindies Summer Jam Promotion and a Tasty Sizzle Reel
@rjejr Likely because at this point most of us are saying: "F&@K clips, give me the game!" by now.
Feel free to replace "the game" with "a NX reveal" =)
Re: Nintendo Acquires Japanese Company JESNET To Gain Control Of Product Distribution
@Rukiafan7 You say that as if Nintendo cares about Sony.
Re: Nintendo eShop Selects Games Go Up for Pre-Order on the Official UK Store
I'm tempted to play Steamworld Heist on the big screen, but I'll wait to see its solo price on the eshop first.

Re: Yo-Kai Watch 2 Won't Be Spooking Europe Until Next Year
@Oubie That's my thinking. Only time will tell, cause there are still some great great games that have yet to come to this side of the world.

@Jingo_Unchained He is the site's old curmudgeon, and utterly harmless. You just might be taking him too seriously.
