welcome to the club, TT games.

woot--hope US gets fast this week--first wiiware purchase in forever inc

game should run at 60fps imo, but 30 should still play fine and look smooth w/ 3d.

any information on an update that fixes the black-screen issue? Only had it happen a couple times but it'd be nice to know that it's understood to be a problem and being fixed...

Man that looks good... Hopefully the shooting action will be a little more solid and modernized this time around (Nanostray games were great, just not quite enough bullet density for my bullet-hell-ish tastes)

Pretty sure this is an autobuy though.

i don't need more reasons not to like this studio

@warioswoods - seriously.

There's a part of me that wants to see what they'd be capable of developing for PS3/360/PC...but at any rate, it's nice to have one consistently excellent, Nintendo-only third party.

All I need is turbo-pumped Chris and I'm satisfied.

/sigh - I own every version, yet I'm guaranteed to buy this one.

Why must I continue to spend my hard earned money on the same product? Why don't I have willpower? Why am I putting 1000 points on my Wii for the first time in a year while I'm typing this?

Be back in 15 or so hours.

damn that looks really, really good...

Wish I'd waited on SF4... Everyone's already seen it--this would be a lot more impressive to first-time 3DS checker-outers.

@billy, @majora - I'm somewhat active on Movemodo despite still not owning a move. Good community and good reviews--and (sorry NL) an even better layout/forum, despite the comparative lack of content.

i guess that explains the awe-inducing lack of content in the 40-dollar wannabe system-seller.

I don't see why there would be guaranteed lag--much more advanced flight sim/aerial battle games are easily doable these days on PC/360/PS3(when PSN's up ) and the 3DS wireless card is leagues ahead of what was in the regular DS...

...DAINJUH ZAAAOOON

@mickey - III really isn't any more linear than 2 was...it's just longer. There's more pre-boat and more post-boat. 1, however, was crazy non-linear....sure--going to certain areas before you were leveled enough to do so was suicide, but literally nothing except the final dungeon was off-limits to a level 1 character.

@jerry - what do you mean? The Wii's been getting PS2 games for years now!

@Rapenzie - you'd be surprised how often that's the case.

if the comparison between Club Nintendo Shops is any indication, the US May Update will contain 3 different versions of It's My Birthday, a virtual Watch Paint Dry app, a paid demo of Ninja Bread Man, and a virus.

nah nah, nah, nah, nah nah nah!

woohoo! cannot wait for this game--first 3DS game who's online functionality i'm gonna use a lot. Hopefully I'll be done w/ OoT before it comes out.

the cart sucked too...boo this game.

@Guardian - I was under the impression that uprising would be out sometime this summer with the rest of those "close to launch window" titles....but now it appears no one has any idea when it's releasing. Amazon's page says Dec 31, 2020, so I think it's safe to say we'll be getting it at least a little earlier than that

as usual, Nintendo seems oblivious to the fact that incorporating any amount of tilt control shatters any ability to utilize the 3d effect. Thanks guys.

so...is there a rationale behind this update/change/potential force-removal of coins? It seems like such a random, unprovoked move...

I used to type in BASIC games from magazines too! Ahhh...I miss Gorillas and CIA Agent. Well, not CIA Agent so much... (text-based adventure games were, are and will always be terrible )

what if im not buying it cause i already own it for GC? Is that principle?

@tbd - aaaahhh I love when people attempt to pigeonhole my responses to due personal bias.

he should've gotten a giant tattoo on his face that says "Notice me! I make stupid, impulsive decisions!" In fact--that should be the only tattoo legally available.

/facepalm

a couple years too late, but better than never

Give us Thunder Spirits! Or the Genesis Thunder Force games....those were Jaleco right?

And yeah...Rival Turf really isn't that bad, but given that Final Fight 3 is one of the best 2d beat em ups period and is already available, I dunno how much attention it will get...

i'm surprised so many people think 2 bucks a night is too expensive....I personally think 99 cents a night (given that's what movies cost) would be severely undervaluing the games in question. Games retail, new, for 60 bucks. Movies are what...20 in DVD form now? By that logic, they should be priced at a 3:1 ratio, not a 2:1 ratio.

Regardless I dunno if I'll actually make use of game rentals, as I'm mostly a buy person. If I did though, it'd be utilizing a service like this. Rent in the morning, play all day, take it back earlier than I got it the following morning. Not a bad way to spend a day off of work.

Good news! (cigarette juice)

2 bucks a night is legit. Way better than required-subscription or like 7 bucks for a couple days or w/e. Might find a list of 6-8 hour fun games and keep an eye out.

unfortunately tri-ace made resonance of fate which didn't do much for me Until that game, they were batting 1000. Gonna watch this one a bit more tentatively

dark spirits is still the best in series

No one has ever bought one of these games.

Don't correct me with facts. In my ideal mind-world, no one has ever bought one of these games.

man i might have to get one of these games...200 points is crazy-cheap and this review makes it sound like a lot of fun.

wait now it's a 40 dollar full retail title..?

I mean...it's a good game...but come on It's like 3 hours...

moon diver does look kinda awesome...I'll be keeping my eye out for this game for sure.

didn't really like MFC....will probably pass on this.

@warnerdan - you sure?

yeah motion controls are awful for 3ds with the 3d on....i can't even play pilotwings with the game completely stationary without getting double-screen all over the place any time i adjust my height. Buttons-only for me.

definitely not going anywhere near it at lauch. waiting a good 2 years before i adopt it this time

how are "completely original" and "combines Galaxy and Mario 64" even allowed to exist in the same article? Doesn't sound bad or anything...but if it were controlled in 4d with your feet and starred a French Guy named Croissant who worked at a nail salon and shot gummybears from a magic wand, I could see the originality claim holding merit.

I have this great idea! Totally original Castlevania game--it's gonna have a whip and play like a combination of Castlevania 3 and Rondo of Blood. Totally original.

one of my absolute favorite side-scrollers ever. X2 is definitely a more solid game though and is prob the best in the entire series (regular or X)

the couple super-guides i actually watched took super-boring playthroughs of the levels anyway....they really didn't spoil anything. Zelda super-guide, however.... I dunno--we'll see how it works I guess, and I suppose it'll be nice for the friggin' water temple's stupid-hidden keys (esp. on MQ mode)

Boss Rush you say?

Can't imagine a Zelda Boss Rush being all that engaging given that very little of the boss-fighting is very reflex-based and is all slow pattern memorization/execution. There also aren't any difficulty settings....still--the closer to Ys this series gets, the better imo.

I consider it a good addition.

I paid 74.99 for Megaman X, new, for SNES. How times have changed!
