Well I'm still pissed that they won't bring the regular New 3DS and I complained a lot about not wanting an XL since I liked the portability of the regular but I have to admit that while playing MH3U I though it would be better on a bigger screen. Since I'm really looking forward to the new Monster Hunter game, tomorrow I'm trading in a DSi, two 360 games (BF4 and GTA V), two Nintendo Wii games (Mario Kart and New Super Mario), a lot of DS and 3DS games (from Nintendo). I'm hoping to have enough for MH4U and to pay a bit of a red New 3DS XL. We'll see but it could be cool. I could trade in MH3U since I'll have the fourth one but I think I'd miss it.
@Tristendo Don't sell it. The Majora's Mask and Monster Hunter bundle are all sold out everywhere. You'll have to get a regular XL black or red. Is that worth selling a collector's piece for?
Unless they release the regular New 3DS here in Canada, Nintendo lost me as a customer. I've no interest in the XL and I said from the start I wanted the colored buttons and faceplates. Really disappointed in them. I might still get Monster Hunter to support Capcom and thank them for releasing it but I'm not sure yet.
I hope US and Canada will get a chance to get this baby too. I'm sold anyway on the regular new 3DS but the Ambassador Edition looks pretty awesome. Can't wait to actually hold one and put it side by side with my original Ice blue 3DS.
@Gorlokk The trailer was showing the characters from story mode so yes there'll be a story mode. You still can play it in Classic mode like Untold 1. I was really turned off at first to have fixed characters for an Etrian game but after spending some time playing they kinda grew on me so I'm actually looking forward to see how characters will be in Untold 2.
A US/EU release is a no-brainer since the other games did good if I'm not mistaken (not sure about EU though). I think we should see it in April or May. So I'll have that and Majora's Mask to look forward to and maybe a New 3DS.
I wish they'd release the GBA and DS Castlevania games on 3DS also. I have PoR and OoE but I'd buy the other DS game and to be able to play the GBA ones would be cool since the screen of my Micro is... well...micro.
Not my cup of tea but I'm glad it's getting good reviews for the people who wants the game. The Wii U needs every strong title it can get. Now if they would only stop being stupid and localize the new Fatal Frame I'd be happy.
This is the game my 3DS was waiting for. Can't wait to pick it up. Now I'm sure they'll do since the others did well but if they'd confirm Etrian Odyssey Untold 2 for the US/EU I'd be a happy gamer. It's not by the same devs but still we need every 3DS games we can get.
Got the Zelda theme last night and it's really cool. I'm looking forward to the Animal Crossing themes they'll put out but I wish they'd make one for Etrian Odyssey.
@ben- @BrownGamer4 First of all Bayonetta is just a clone of Devil May Cry that I didn't really get into. Secondly of course it's mostly shooter nowadays but the online on the other console is just better. Destiny is something I really enjoy and there's Forza 5 and now Forza Horizon 2 that's got no competition in the racing genre. Plenty of sports games in you're into that and there's some RPG coming soon like Dragon Age Inquisition and the Witcher 3 that looks like major games to me. I just wrote my opinion, if it gets to you that much maybe you are a fanboy. Me I go where the games are and sadly they're not on the Wii U. I bought the thing for my wife so she'd play her Mario Kart which is fun but nothing spectacular. My 3DS though is king in the handheld department so Nintendo got me there. I just wish it would get more Japanese games like the Vita is getting.
Funny thing is.......I have an Wii U, Xbox One and this year I'll get a PS4 but I really don't care about your game so do whatever you want I got better..
It's sad cause I love Japanese games but I hate Japanese devs that won't sell overseas. There should be rules about this. You want to develop for a platform, fine you have to sell it everywhere.
The permadeath thing only means that you have to restart the level your on if you die as oppose to being able to save where you are in the regular mode.
Well I just got The Keep and I have to admit that I'm really surprised. It takes a little time to get into the controls: you move with the joystick and strafe with the "L" button. Everything else you use the stylus for. Once you're on the map mode you can activate buttons on the walls or pick up stuff by using the touchscreen making an icon appear on the upper screen and moving it. Dragging stuff to your inventory or quickslots. Attack are done the same way. This doesn't look like a game you'll rush through but instead have to take time to check your surroundings and plan your moves. Pretty much all the text has voice-over and the music and ambience noise are really fitting. The graphics are nice. Nothing shattering but pretty. There's a tutorial but you still have to figure some stuff on your own. So far I'm really liking it and the permadeath option could add a lot of replay value. I went that way cause I like a challenge and there's even 3 difficulty stings and you can make 3 profiles if more than one person is playing on the same 3DS so that's convenient. I'd recommend the game to anyone who like dungeon crawlers and likes to take it slow. I hope it'll get a good review but even if it doesn't I don't regret getting it.
I didn't think I was into that type of game but after all the time I've put in Animal Crossing: New Leaf, this one is on my most wanted list. I can't wait to try the different jobs and all the things you can do. I'm just sad that we get it in October here cause I would've asked my wife to get it for my Birthday on September 30th. Oh well it'll be a late birthday gift from myself then.
I have the original Ice blue 3DS. I wanted to upgrade for the XL one but after seeing the New 3DS I think I'll just get the regular one. I'm a sucker for customization and the cover plates are looking pretty cool. Plus the colored buttons are calling me. I like the packaging but I don't know why they think adults would want a boring package. I'm 37 and I like colors so why would I want a boring package.
Forget the 3D remakes, just put SNES games on the Eshop. I'd love to be able to play Equinox, Wyzardry V, Eye of the Beholder or plenty more titles. I can't believe they haven't put some effort there.
They lost my respect when they made us wait for Cult County and then decided to screw the 3DS version to put a next gen version (which they were not ready to deliver) on Kickstarter.
I got it for my MacBook Pro and on my 360. I could get it for Xbox One but I don't know. I'd like to get a portable version but if the 3DS is a downgraded port I'll pass and get it on the Vita. Maybe the Wii U version would have something cool with the tablet screen but I'm not sold on that.
Of all the games I've seen at E3 there's 2 that got my attention: The first one is Bloodborne since I'm a big Souls fan and the second is this one. I like the visuals and the isometric style. Looking at the trailer during the E3 show intrigued me and put a smile on my face. Can't wait to try it.
This is pointless. Seriously.....what's next, they're going to complain cause there's no transvestite character. Funny thing is I wouldn't be surprised to learn the person who wrote about the lack of characters of color is white. I'm white by the way, not that it makes any difference, but I've known people from many different ethnicities and never heard any of them complain about this fact.
Well I bought the Wii U to my wife for Mario Kart 8 which is pre-ordered and payed for so this is good news. Don't know which one to get between Pikmin 3 and The Wind Waker HD. I finished Wind Waker on Gamecube when I had it so while I liked it I think I should go with Pikmin 3. Mmmm what to choose.
Man I loved this game. First played it on the 2600 but bought the Gameboy color version as soon as it came out. I wish it would come out on the 3DS eshop.
Man I played that game so much on the NES. I rented it every now and then and enjoyed it like it was the first time. Playing this n the go will be cool so I'm definitely getting this.
Just got Unepic and it looks pretty sweet but if I try to play it on my TV, I'm missing the bottom of the screen. This only happens in this game so I know it's not my TV and there's no option to resize the picture. Maybe in a future update.
Any FPS would be cool but I'm really waiting for Cult County. A Dementium 3 would also be sweet. I just hope it's not a futuristic shooter. I want something creepy or maybe urban military would be nice.
Skimpy costumes or not I hate when they change things like that. They could at least give the option to have the original Japanese costume if you want them.
Nothing interesting but it's okay. I'll get my copy of Etrian Odyssey 5 tomorrow and I'm still on Diablo 3 on Hell(360) and GTA5 so I got enough at the moment.
I wasn't sure at first of the story mode but after trying the demo my mind was changed. The characters have all so much charm and add a lot to the game....and a Canadian inspired Raquna....Awesome! That's pretty funny, a Japanese game with a character inspired by my country is just plain cool. Can't wait to get my copy next week.
Wow I used to watch this show on tv when I was a kid. It was way before I learned English so of course it was in French. I hope they sell the French version in Canada.

NIIIICE! I've been waiting for this one. I just can't get enough of crawlers like this so it's a buy for me anyway. I hope it was worth the wait.
Re: Feature: Where Are The Super Nintendo 3D Classics?
