Hate having to tilt the 3DS to cross that bridge in
the demo. Please someone tell me you can turn
the gyro controls off

I don't understand why saga doesn't feature
a difficultly level that you can change when
complete does.

I really want bit trip saga for portability but I've
always found each game too hard.

I can't really justify buying bit trip complete as
I've already brought them individually on
wiiware.

I can also see bit trip saga disappearing at
retail like cave story 3d did only to re-appear
online at over inflated prices.

I'm put off by the price too and I think I'd
prefer the dx version.

I'm still tempted but that could be the nostalga
playing with my mind.

I've only heard good things about this game and
I've wanted to play this for years now (and axelay)
without having to buy a megadrive.

I'm sure I read it was a diificult game though.

The circle pad pro is being bundled with Resident
Revelations and is a zavvi exclusive for the very
decent price of £29.95

After zezzy posted that link to a pic of the circle pro
add-on I had to look on tube for an unboxing, whilst
over there I found this by Ign.

And you can pre order it with Resident Evil Revelations
over a zavvi (in the u.k.) for £29.95
http://www.zavvi.com/10580591.html

I've pre ordered it for that price but I'll cancel if it get
bad reviews

Its 2012 in less than 3 weeks and still no cave story.

Is it still coming out in the U.K.? Don't know how much
longer I can wait. I know I can buy cave story 3d but A)
it's more expensive and B) if I can download it it's one
less game I need to carry with me.

Please someone tell me its still heading for the dsi store/3ds eshop
In the U.K.

Corbie: could you tell me if the 3ds has a nice clicky d pad
like on the dsi consoles or is it soft and spongy like on the
ds lite console

Thanks

This is going to bomb at retail. Odd looking quirky games are much harder to market that other games that fit easily into a specicif genre group and gaming history tells us that its the more weird esoteric titles that get ignored in favour of easier to market franchises. This would be a perfect download at £10.50 but £20 plus for retail and I'll be passing on this until it turns up cheaper and then it will more than likely be pre-owned and the developers who have worked hard on this fantastic game on this will not recieve any money. It should be kept as ware wii. The publisher has really missed an opportunity here.

The report on ign says Mr Iwata said "you can directly download games to sd card" and not actually play them straight off an sd card and if this is true is changes nothing as you still have to keep swapping games around. Thought it was too good to be true.

Id be more interested in they put a better d pad on it rather than the spongy unresponsive one we have now on the ds lite.

Hope this comes to the uk sharpish will definately get it after seeing a very good review here and on ign.

Reasonable price for most of the DLC for once.

Isnt it about time the uk got gyrrostar or is it going to end up like the axelay scenario

Drizzt: and hopefully streets of rage 4

Can you play against bots whilst offline? (if your friends are not around)

When does the uk get gyrostar? (and axelay? not wiiware I know but still)

Give us the option to dowload the whole game for 1500 points and you can count me in on this one

Sounds great. Cant wait for this, now give us gyrrostar and Im sorted.

How many blocks does this game take up?

How much longer do we have to wait for this game in the uk?

How much longer does the uk have to wait for this.

If the game is being released in sections because of file size issues are you then meant to play stage 1 then delete it? then play stage 2 and then delete it? This method might work for strong bad but for a shooter this is completely unsuitable. If it takes approximately 250 blocks per pack the whole game could take up to a 1000 blocks. I dont see how this can be released before there is a storage solution and then what about the people who feel they dont need or want extra storage.

Agree with Adamant 100%. Give us castlevania straight up like it should be.

Buying one level might not enable you to make a judgement on the game. They should just be up front and say the game is either 1500 or 2000 points but they dont want to do that because it makes the game look expensive, which it is. I only have one wiiware game at the moment and at this rate I wont be getting a 2nd as the prices continue to creep up. They can take this game and shove it where the sun dont shine

Would anyone say that this is a hard game? Have not played a samurai showdown game before.

You can wait for retail games to come down in price and sell them on. 1000 points costs me £7 directly from the wii shop. Thats £35 for all the episodes with no chance for it to come down in price and not being able to sell it ever. At this price im out.

Same as ChocoDK for me. 800 points would seal the deal. I know there will be some people who think its only 200 points more (£1.40 if brought directly from the wii shop) and that I may be a cheapskate but at least for retail games if you remain uncertain or not convinced you can wait til the prices drops, not so with vc and wii games unless nintendo do a vc and wiiware sale which is EXTREMELY UNLIKELY.

Is there a review of this anywhere?

I had excitebike 64 (after waiting close to a year for it to come to the uk) and loved this game. There was so much to do in it. Sold it years ago though so would download it instanly if or when it gets released on the vc. Same applies for outrun and snes mariokart. I would like to know however if there is any issues with some snes games coming out on the vc for example games that used mode 7 or the super fx chip. (we still dont have starwing and I would love that game.

hope this gets released before too long. for 500 points I'm going to take a chance on this game. I just wish that other wiiware developers would consider a lower point cost because without having game demos I will be alot less likely to take a chance on them.

If they charge $100 that would work out at around £50 at the moment and think flash memory does cost alot more that HD based storage systems (not that I wont to be robbed by nintendo) wouldnt an update from nintendo allow the support of 2gig +

I really need a storage solution and would pay for one for sure. 4-8 gig would work well enough and although i expect it to a propriety based and expensive i think it would be worth it as most of my vc and wiiware titles go unplayed because i have to either download them again or move them back and forth to my sd card. Like some else has said though you will need to be able to play them from the storage system itself or it is not improvement over just buying a sd card (which i already have)

RE: link 79. I wont be able to play super smash bros brawl when it comes out as i only have 5-10 blocks left for save files and SSBB takes up over 120 blocks. It wouldnt make enough of a difference if i transfered all my game saves over to my sd card as most of my saves are around 1-2 blocks. Eledess takes up over 120 for its save file and that file cannot be copied to an sd card. It is far to much trouble moving all my corrosponding save files around and trying to keep track of them as well as moving around vc and wiiware games.

Now the only way i can make enough room for the SSBB save file is to delete the internet and nintendo channel save files which then means i cannot use the new nintendo channel as you have to have a save file for it.

I would also like to add the wii fit and mariokart channels but cant as i will have to move loads of games to my sd card and not everyone wants to keep doing this. The virtual console for me meant being able to pick up and play my favourite retro titles with ease and convinience.

If some people are happy moving stuff around or deleting it then fine, let them do that but give other people who are sick of doing this an option.

I know nintendo are not exactly desperate for my money these days but the point is they could have even more of my money if they sorted this out.

Now that its effecting my games saves shows what a ridiculous situation this is. I now cant use the features that nintendo have included in their own games and i have to choose between the nintendo channel (and its very large required save file) or SSBB and thats a choice i shouldnt have to make just because nintendo didnt put the time and thought into the storage system

does anyone know of this game has a tutorial mode like in the ds version. Thanks

The memory is a big issue for me but not only for games and channels but also for game saves. I only have about 20 blocks left so unless i delete the nintendo channel ( i have already deleted the internet save file) i wont have enough room for the super smash bros brawl save file ( which is over 120 blocks) also eledees takes up more than 120 blocks and that save file cannot be copied to an sd card ( i have tried). Moving games back and foward via sd or download is enough hassle without having to move around the corrosponding save file.
I wouldnt make enough of a difference if i even moved say all of my vc (and other games saves as most are only 1-2 blocks so I still wouldnt have enough room for the SSBB save file.

Nintendo need to fix the memory issue for channels and games saves or i simply wont be able to buy and play the games they want me to buy

I am really tempted to do what Django did to get hold of axelay however when I change the region setting of my wii to Australia it says it will delete the link between my wii shop account and my nintendo account (which I have linked up to change star points for wii points)
Is it possible to re-link them back together again?

Cant decide if to get this or star soldier R on wiiware. I do have blazing lasers and soldier blade and prefer soldier blade.

Has anyone else tried what Django has done. Can you do this in the u.k. ? could further updates stop the game working in the future?

Looks great. will get this as I already have blazing lasers and soldier blade, (also have the portable parodius game for psp.) would like to see the nemesis games released for the vc asthey are meant to be easier than the gradius games

I hope that something comes out of these comments. With only a handfull of blocks I will not be downloading wii ware stuff as i am sick and tired of copying and deleting games around (even though i have a very fast sd card. At the moment this kills off the spontaneity of playing anthing i like.

what a great game. does anybody have any idea or know any rumour as to when we get this in the uk, really sick of waiting

I decided to try out the sandisk extreme III 2 gig sd card after reading about it being really fast,(read and write speed of 20mb a sec) it copies nes games in around 15 seconds, snes, megadrive and turbografx games in 30-40 seconds and neo geo and n64 games in around a minute inc sin and punishment which is a really big game. Its still not the perfect solution but hopefully if enough people kick up a fuss things may change. new to the forum so hello to everyone
