I can't blame Nintendo for this, not because I'm a "Fanboy" or it hurts
my Spleen to say something negative about Nintendo. It's because there isn't
enough evidence out there, for me to take my Wii U outside, and burn it. All
there is, is two e-mails posted on Neogaf. One saying that 18+ games are only available between 11PM - 3AM, and another proclaiming it's due to German laws.
That's not enough for me to start screaming "Nintendo" in vain, or for me to start debating German laws. All we have at the moment are these two e-mails
and a bunch of theories.
Weren't they trying to get this released on the E-shop? Then I can see why Nintendo won't allow this game on the E-shop, because it's ran by Nintendo themselves.
If the Blinding of Isaac was going to be a retail game, maybe this story would be different.
I can't think of a better farewell to give the DS. The 3DS is still early in it's lifecyle, so we have a good few years, for a bunch of Pokemon games to hit the system. I just can't see why people would be losing sleep over this.
So let me get this straight...we're receiving an optional device, that could open up new doors for the 3DS, expanding the library, and bringing us potential games like MH3 to the system....yet people are blowing a gasket?
@12. TheAmazingRaccoon - They can do it for Marketing purposes. From the looks of it, Pokemon Tap! will be used to promote Pokemon: Best Wishes!, The Anime based on Pokemon: Black & White.
Here is a bit more Info from Mr. Konno, that wasn't said in the Article
"Having a business model that allows for the prices to be driven down that low, as a developer it’s kind of scary because we want to protect our content, and the only way we can justify creating good content is if it makes business sense. It’s more than a pricing issue, it’s a company value. We want to compete with ideas, we want to surprise our consumer base. That’s the battleground for us — are we surprising consumers?"
@Starlight - Well, the developers should make a game, worth that price. Nintendo must have some sort of guideline to what a Game should contain the make it that price.

Re: SUMO Digital Invites Fans To Campaign for Sonic Racing DLC Characters
So it can be from any Sega game, developed or published?. If that's the case, I'm very disappointed nobody has campaigned for Arnold Palmer.

Re: Nintendo Europe Dropped London Life to "Avoid Delays"
@XCWarrior - The Professor Layton series is VERY Popular in europe, to the point, some people would choose to receive London Life than Xenoblade.

Re: Professor Layton's Last Specter Out in October
Nintendo UK have confirmed London Life for the European Release http://www.officialnintendomagazine.co.uk/29935/professor-laytons-london-life-is-coming-to-europe/
In the end, it was just bad wording from the NOA press release
Re: Level-5 May Consider Wii U Professor Layton Ports
I think what Hino meant by porting, was the series, not the actual games.
But the idea of Professor Layton & The Curious Village in HD, does excite me.

@nlifegamer - Let's just say, there wasn't enough Wiis to go around.
Re: Nintendo Likely to Retain Price Control in 3DS eShop
@Mickeymac - I would rather pay 1200 points for Shantae than £1 for a Iphone game.
Re: Reggie: We're Not Interested in "Garage Developers"
It's quite simple what Reggie is getting at.
"We want games like Cave Story and Minecraft, not Cube Runner and All 54 Games"
