Wow, just a Random Saturday? That's no way to celebrate a day! Just like that one random child's show told me, "nothing is random; everything is special in their own special way."
This E3 would have been a lot more exciting if they didn't tease Star Fox at last E3. That would have been the perfect way to get me started. However, Metroid Prime isn't exactly what I was looking for, and I felt that we already had enough Paper Mario and Legend of Zelda on the 3DS. Plus, neither Animal Crossing game is what I really want, but Home Decor looks fun to mess around with for 20 hours of gameplay tops. The sad part is that Home Decor, Yoshi's Whooly World, and Star Fox (the only games that REALLY interested me) were already revealed long before E3.
Spoiler Alert... couldn't you put something like "Two new mysterious characters unofficially confirmed for Smash Bros" instead? It ruins the surprise...
@Cypronia I wasn't going to buy it based on the review, but your comments and plans make me want to change my mind. I'll be delighted to play local multiplayer on this! Plus, the survival aspects seem thrilling.
This game has so much content that it is ridiculous for a $15 game. There is so much to explore and craft even without the RoG DLC. I love how you constantly have to stress about everything in the game: food, sanity, Winter, hounds, darkness... Food can spoil in the game and is really scarce to collect unlike any other sandbox game. Some may wonder why it's called "Don't Starve" since there are so many things other than hunger that could kill you. However, it's the main stress of trying to get the food that causes you to run into so many problems. This is a highly recommended game and possibly the most thrilling Indie game that I have ever played. 9/10 from me!
As useful as always; thank you! Do you know what music is playing during the "Out this week:" and "Reviews this week:"? It sounds like Pokemon music...
This is a Day 1 Purchase for me. I bought the PC BETA and managed to get 2 copies for $11. I'm glad to see a similar event for the Wii U. I was planning on buying this game for my friend anyway, so this is convenient.
Unfortunately, I have three AP exams to study for, so I couldn't play and still can't play until Thursday. This was the absolute worst weekend of the entire year that they had to do it.
It's harder than everyone thinks. I get e-mail alerts, texts, and constant posts when an amiibo is in stock. After using it for the month of April, I must say that, if you don't get to an amiibo within 10 minutes, then you are doomed. Walmart unexpectedly came out of nowhere last Friday at 3AM; yet, Robin and Lucina sold out within 30 minutes.
I have fought 3 Cherubis and 2 Carvanahs. I hate how they only have a base 5% capture rate. Even with a Lv6 Lucario, Lv1 Heracross, and Lv5 Scizor, I could just barely beat Carvanahs. (That doesn't mean that I caught him, though...)
lol Over 50% of the sample must play nothing but Smash Bros and MK8. Personally, I wouldn't mind as long as it doesn't get in the way. New characters for Smash Bros. are alright, but I think I'm settled for other DLC. (except for the Protoman custome which was awesome)
I bought Lost Levels and Siesta Fiesta for 3DS. I love these sales because, although they burn my money, they encourage me to buy the games that were rotting in my Wish List.
The Sorcery! franchise is the only set of games I have seen anyone purchase on mobile devices. I'm not including microtransactions. Personally, I wouldn't go to mobile for an RPG; it just doesn't work.
I didn't get a Lucarionite this time since I suck. However, I know possess Zaptos, Sceptile, Mega Ampharos, and Raikou. Apparently, EVERYONE is using these Pokemon, so I guess I will as well. Hopefully I will get Mega Blastoise then USE HIM TO BEAT BLAZIKEN!! Has anyone seriously beaten Blaziken before?
If the review geared toward an 8, then I would think about it. If it geared toward a 9, but I would add it to my "To Buy" list. If you gave it a perfect score, then I would buy it immediately.
GUYS! It is currently 6:30 AM. I went to bed at 1 AM. Apparentily, between the times of 1 AM and 6 AM, ToysRUs had Wave 4 amiibos in stock and sold out within those five hours of sleep I had. I want to cry... ;(
Aww, poor Europeans. They have so many choices to pick from: ranging from the standard models to Majora's Mask limited edition. Meanwhile, us lucky North Americans get to choose between red XL or black XL. How exciting!
Seeing the "Sheriff" character in my Subscription box by you guys really cleared up the character in Super Smash Bros. I can't believe that they put something that "out-there" in the game.

I can't wait to try this out. It looks so tempting!!
Re: Review: Attack on Titan: Humanity in Chains (3DS)
What a shame. I expected it to be like Monster Hunter but with titans. This is still cool, and I may consider this when the price goes down.

I'll think about it. I'll wait for at least a 40% discount.
