WHAT!? I've been waiting to get Fire Emblem Awakening for less than $40 (which it should've been put on Nintendo Selects a LONG time ago) and there's a discount in My Nintendo in Europe but not North America?
Oh finally they actually put up the REAL Mario vs Donkey Kong on Virtual Console. Not that Mini Mario toys thing that's gotten really old and not interesting anymore.
Man quite a few are turned off for the price. Personally I believe an addictive puzzler crossover has the replay ability (especially with the online multiplayer) to justify the price of admission.
@StephenYap3 Same here. Puyo Puyo Chronicles looks so fun and what's keeping me from importing a copy (hooray for Homebrew's region lock bypass) is the fact that it's basically an RPG and playing one where you can't read anything doesn't sound very enjoyable even with a guide.
@PlywoodStick There's a big difference between EARNINGS AND WAGES. Women can't get paid less for doing the SAME job as men since that's illegal and the company practicing such would face legal trouble. Women on average earn less on average than men if you put all jobs together due to many different possible career paths.
@MisterKorman But the ads push these lies such as there being some status quo of women being worth less than men in the Audi commercial even though the wage gap has been proven to be nothing but a myth.
Well there's at least a fan translation of the first game that's making good progress. They already translated the demo and the first case is said to be finished "soon".
@HappyMaskedGuy They did that with Smash 4 in E3 2011 but then people expected a trailer for the game in E3 2012 despite development only starting after Kid Icarus Uprising was finished.
@BigKing $40 may seem a bit much but the price is worth it for the 3DS remake. The remake made many much needed improvements which has made it more accessible for first time players.
There's absolutely no need to redo any completed side quests (besides one or two exceptions) or dungeons because you keep any plot important items, masks and heart pieces when you reset. Completing as much as you can in a cycle isn't necessary but I myself find it satisfying to do so.
@BigKing Ever tried Majora's Mask? I'm not that big of a Zelda person myself but that was the only 3D Zelda game that I played all the way through 100% (5 times in fact) because I loved how it was structure so different focusing more on sidequests and I loved trying to squeeze as many tasks as possible in a 3 day cycle.
Ehh... I'm not that big of a fan of the series but I guess I'd buy Mother 3 anyway since I already have bought the first two games. The only Virtual Console confirmation I need is for Gamecube games.

Re: New My Nintendo Awards Are Now Live in North America
Frustration can't even describe how I feel about this.

Thousand Year Door doesn't need analog triggers right?
Re: Nintendo Download: 9th February (North America)
@sketchturner It's quite a challenge just to beat the game.

Re: Puyo Puyo Tetris Confirmed for April Release on Nintendo Switch
I'm hoping this sells well so Sega actually continues with localizing the series.

Re: Paper Mario: Color Splash and Pokémon Moon Shortlisted for Nickelodeon Kids' Choice Awards
As always the polls would be rigged by it's "other considerations" and the immature kids won't know what a game with actual substance is.
Re: Nintendo Outlines Pricing Range for Switch Online Service
Well I guess I was right about Nintendo reasonably pricing this.
Re: Talking Point: The Nintendo 3DS, A System That Still Has a Role to Play
Can't Nintendo finish with the 3DS support already? I really wanna hack my New 3DSXL.
Re: Talking Point: Important Features Yet to be Revealed for the Nintendo Switch
Why did Nintendo step away from analog triggers again?
Re: The Great Ace Attorney 2 on 3DS Gets a Flashy New Japanese Trailer
Well there's at least a fan translation of the first game that's making good progress. They already translated the demo and the first case is said to be finished "soon".
Re: Feature: 10 Intriguing Third-Party Nintendo Switch Games for Your Wishlist
What no Puyo Puyo Tetris?
Re: It's Nintendo Switch Petition Time, With Miiverse on the Agenda
Miiverse is already dead to me. Nintendo already killed it with that 30 post limit.
Re: New PlayStation Releases Push Evergreen 3DS Titles Down Charts in Japan
Why are people still buying the Vita?
Re: Breaking Down the Nintendo Switch Online Service Details
Nintendo better just reasonably price this service at this point.
Re: Nintendo Switch Won't Have Miiverse Or StreetPass
Nintnedo completely ruined Miiverse with it's daily posting limit and it angered me how they just ignored the backlash that occurred because of it.

Re: Nintendo NY Store Confirms A 'Limited Quantity of Pre-Orders' for Nintendo Switch on 13th January
Of course Nintendo is going to do this like always.
Re: Soapbox: The Nintendo Switch's Final Specs Don't Matter
Of course it matters. I wanna play Gamecube games on the Switch.
