@Lohengriehn: Starwing/fox is one I really want to see. It should be relatively easy to do and they could fix the framerate and draw distance a bit.

@Iz20XX: I know, the exchange rate I posted is the one the eShop operates with(in general) and is much more favourable to the US than the actual exchange rate. It should be only be 70p:$1 really. I still find the prices fair though.

Re: Review: Shinobi (3DS)

It honestly looks like a DS game. No joke. This game would be unacceptable as a PSP launch game and it's just a slap in the face in 2011 on the 3DS. I'm not even sure how it can be argued. Everything is low poly, with low res textures and tons of jaggies, no lighting(circle shadows) or any attempts to use the advances features of the Pica GPU. (correct me if I'm wrong) It's only 30fps as well.

At least it sounds like it nails the gameplay. It's a good jumping off point if they want to continue the franchise but with Gryptonite being purchased by Glu and the apparently poor production values they probably won't get the chance.

Did that sound overly mean/critical?

Re: Review: Pyramids (3DSWare)

This is a very fair review and I'd say it aligns well with my perspective on the game.

It is surprisingly addictive though. You feel you need to go back and beat the level!

Didn't expect any reviews for this pre-release so this is a nice surprise.

I am interested in this but I definitely cannot afford straight away. I might pick it up in early January.

EDIT: Also, country como breaka! =p

Yes James! He should be forced to run a death gauntlet as well! * twirls mustache *

Nah but really this should have been anticipated quite a while ago and they have paced the games out so there would be at least two games across all four services. I know I'd rather have no weeks with 2 DSiware titles and than weeks with 0 DSiware titles.
