Just picked up every AA game released in the US last week, even Investigations. They cost about $130 between them all. The original three cost me $60, so this is a steal people. If this one ever goes on sale I'll be sure to grab it, but $30 for three games I have recently played through is a bit much. If I had never played, I'd jump on this immediately... because this is 60 HOURS of gameplay people.
@Tsurii897 Alright. Thanks. :3 With my Wii U sitting in my living room I'd probably have to play this offscreen, seeing as my parents do not approve of violent games. >_> ...cannot wait for college.
This is how hacking should be done if it is to be done at all, I feel. Showing off parts of the game we couldn't otherwise see and customization. So long as it is not on online play, it is pretty cool. Although I admit, if I was to play online and suddenly be in Ice Thwomp Ruins one time, I wouldn't mind.
Chrom, Ike and Marth are all male swordsman. Lucina is a female. That is why she got in, for gender variety. I'm sure he feels like women would prefer to play as a woman, and in the process, decided Lucina needed balance for some reason. There you go. I really want this to happen with Dark Pit.
I mean, one play coin is reasonable. You can play ten times a day, which most people certainly do not do every single day, compared to only five which some people maxed on. " However, keep in mind that this is limited to Friends who own the Premium Version of the game." Why is everything going to the Premium version? I understand, they want your money. But this is getting less and less free to play every update.
@DankyKong While it isn't a terrible reward, to get platinum that is the equivalent of spending $600, which comes out as maybe $300-$500 with extra coins depending on how savvy you are. You'd think for their biggest fans, they'd offer something besides games, or even a larger selection. I myself own most of these games and essentially have to pick something I don't really want. With a unique physical reward, I'm pretty much guaranteed not to own that, at least.
It is entirely possible to achieve Gold or even Plat with just a Wii and a DS. Why should Nintendo screw people like that over, who own neither supported system here? :/ On top, they are treating the competitive melee community far batter than us. It's pretty upsetting, they are playing literally one old game and they get special treatment. I will get the highest priced reward available, and not hold my breath for next year.
That commercial was glorious! I don't mind this DLC in my game, I mean you're all complaining over something free that probably will lead to more optional free things. >_>
@sinalefa I almost agreed, which would have been a first for me too. But I'd rather give a vote to Palutena this time.
The PacMan roulette being part of his taunt is kind of a let down. I was hooing you could continue it after the fruits/pretzel to get maybe something like an assist trophy to help you. Oh well, now I know I definitely won't play as PacMan, at least.
Still haven't had time to pick up the first one. And probably won't now, unless I like this one. I guess this is one final attempt to try and drive sales. Free to Play, I feel, will be good here. Maybe you can actually buy specific teammates if you don't have a plethora of WiFi hotspots near you; that'd be wonderful. I'd buy some when I'm playing at night and don't want to go outside.
@C-Olimar I'd assume you have to download it on the same NNID, but after that it would be playable on any account on that Wii U. I'm only part way through the 3DS version so far, however I agree that it does have a lot of strategy involved. Definietely seems better than most mobile games!
The game does a lot, but still needed more things to do... ad I partially agree with @Zach777, though I feel $30 and a little more content would have been best. As far as craziness goes in my town, well, let's just say Rosalina has had a lot of takers. At least half of my male population, to be exact. ._. But hey, she was won out by Reggie in the end, so it worked out well. I/My Mii has 3 100% friendship ratings as well... with Professor Layton, Phoenix Wright and Luigi. That was amazing! I gave Professor Oak a steampunk room the other day, and some nice beats-esque headphones. I actually found his favorite food on the first try! Speaking of food, I spent over $300 on meatballs, and gave them out to every person on the island. Let's just say that a certain bald bearded NL team member turns to stone when he eats them. On top of all this, I made a Ballad (I think) with Peach singing for Mario's love... then he appears from behind stage and hops over her bench to join her. Its pretty amusing. :3 Those are some of my best moments so far, and I hope to have many more before I grow bored!

$20? I think they missed a decimal place.
Re: Fret Not, Bravely Default's Agnes Oblige Will Return In Bravely Second
Putting Agnes in the game was certainly an 'Obligeation'.

Re: Japanese Video Site Niconico Live Streaming Hyrule Warriors Tomorrow
This game is certainly benefiting from this vigorous advertising, there is already a lot of hype for a game coming out next month in Japan only.
Unrelated to my previous thought, but will this game have offscreen play?

Re: Areal Passes Kickstarter Goal, Yet More Peculiarities and Questions Remain

@River3636 I'd go DK returns, it costs more. :3

@Phantom_R Same! I hate that.
I bet the update makes the game crash more online now. :3

The only one I need is Captain Falcon, thanks though. :3

Sadly, will not be happening in the US.

Goooooo Tomodachi Life!
Maybe it'll hit the top 10 eventually... probably not but I'd love to see it happen.
Re: Cross-Buy is Now a Thing on Nintendo Platforms
I love The Game Bakers now.
I'd love if this caught on in the VC first. That'd be amazing, honestly.

We have to remove 15% of the NL community, it seems. Or at least force them to buy Shovel Knight.
