@ZenTurtle They don't, they're ripping them from a hacked Wii U.
Which is why I don't use an emulator to play GC/Wii games, you need to hack your Wii to make your own ISO's, because you can't run the discs on your computer.
I only recently found out about this game and I was quite interested. But now that I've seen some screenshots I am disappointed, I don't care for the artstyle. Though if I do end up getting this game I doubt these changes would affect me, I hardly ever play NG+.
@wazlon I haven't played any Mystery Dungeon games, but looked into it yesterday and none of the MD got great reviews, they all hover around the 60%. So if you like the MD games SMD only needs to score about the same to be just as good as the others...
I hope they'll reduce the price of the regular versions without the ugly Selects border along with these so I can take advantage of it too.
This does mean I can't order these games online anymore, because they'll lie about which version you'll get by often showing the orignal cover, but shipping the Selects(or equivalent) version.
I thought about pre-ordering this at a discount, but I decided to get another game because the screenshots made me think this was what this review confirms. Well made , but not very exciting.
@DarthNocturnal You can get the SNES game from Amazon(some exclusive retailer deal I believe) www.amazon.ca/Dragon-Ball-Extreme-Butoden-Nintendo/dp/B00X8X082G
I have a pre-order out, but I'm not sure I'll get any of the extra's. Never mind though, I'd rather save money with a cheap pre-order than pay a good amount more for the extra's at a retailer that does offer them.
@PinkSpider The racing should be the same as the Wii U version, and there should be more tracks too. I'm wondering if that's true or not. @Tisteg80 Obviously, Activision didn't do enough to make the distinction clear. Though the US Amazon lists the WiiU&other console version seperate from the Wii/3DS ones and there are fewer complaints there than on the UK one where all versions are on the same page, so Amazon is at fault here too.
My three choices are Project Zero 5, Rodea: TSS & Mario Tenis: US. As I don't know much about Mario Tennis yet, I'd normally put XCX above it, but I've yet to play the original XC. And I want to complete that game before I get XCX, but I doubt I'll play and finish XC this year as I have enough of an RPG backlog to keep me busy until next year. Those four games are also the only ones from that list I'll buy. I will get the physical version of Shovel Knight too, though I might get that on 3DS instead.
@ bezerker99: No, there are more games, but let's not mention those...
@DoomTurtle The physics are not 1 on 1 copies of the originals, so playing those games will not give you an exact feel for the physics. And a lot of items, enemies and other possibilities from those games are missing from SMM, so it will never feel truely like those games.
@DoctorOverbuild Not everything, you just need a tab for the main page, the login screen & the checkout. First do the login, if works through another Nintendo site that isn't facing problems, so it should send you back to the main page with an authentication URL, keep refreshing that until it logs you in(you'll stay logged it in even if the website doesn't respond for a while). Then you can click on an item on the mainpage and you'll get a loading icon, if it doesn't load within 20 seconds, press escape and click on it again(no refreshing required there), once it gets to the item page, click add to the basket until it goes back to the main page. Then refresh the checkout to see if the item has been added. If it has and you're done continue with the checkout (rightclick to new tab if possible) and refresh if it fails, the items will still be in your basket on the checkout page. The purchase succeeded page failed on me too, but I still got an e-mail with the code, so check your e-mail when you think you've made it.
@The_BAAD_Man Just keep trying to add that item while logged-in and open another tab with the checkout page. Even though it hangs, it can still add the item to your basket. That's how I eventually got my order.
@abe_hikura Same here, managed to grab a few more stars so hoping for a SNES game. I did find many games with outdated codes and games from 2015 without one.
People who've played the PS disc version always hate on it because of the loading times it introduced. I wonder if a SNES CD version would've been much better than that.
I already have little interest in multiplayer, and don't even know anyone else with a 3DS for local multiplayer, so this game will definitely not be finding it's way to my 3DS.
This should come to the West, but first they'll have to bring Devilish Brain Training to Europe(which might still be scheduled for a 2015 release according to some retailers).
Making a level in SMM is much easier than LBP and most levels very short and simple, so it's no suprise. But I don't see it reaching 8 million, because of the 10 uploaded levels limit and that levels that don't get stars will be deleted from the servers after a while to save on server space.
I have the same thing with Mario Golf as I have with Mario Tennis, the older entries look enticing and are cheaper, but I'd rather get the new games(World Tour & Ultra Smash).
Hopefully they'll release a well priced bundle with Mario Tennis: US with one of the remotes. I really want another Wiimote+, but they're too expensive.

Re: Feature: The Biggest 3DS Games of 2015 - Q4 Edition
@wazlon Putting the word Super in a title does make things better, so let's hope Chunsoft deliver on it. The recent Etrian MD did score 79.

Re: Feature: The Biggest 3DS Games of 2015 - Q4 Edition
Is Super Mystery Dungeon an action RPG? The trailer wasn't very clear.
So far I'm only getting DBZ: Extreme Butoden, as I've got enough (3)DS games now to last me the rest of the year.

Re: Review: Skylanders SuperChargers (Wii U)
Will there be a review of the Wii/3DS version? I'll probably buy this once the price drops, but I want to know if I should consider the other version.
Re: Feature: The Biggest Wii U Games of 2015 - Q4 Edition
@opeter No, it's an Action RPG.
