I have a Windows phone so can't download the Miitomo app. I'm not sure how involved I can be with My Nintendo as a combined result of that and that I prefer physical copies of games.
I really need to play Splatoon again! I was really involved when it launched but haven't put it on in months. All these updates are really helping things stay fresh.
One of the finest platformers around, and a very important game as a whole. I haven't played it in years and don't have a N3DS but envy those who can play this on the go!
So she is being banned to keep the top players happy? "Causing an upset" is a poor reason. If a top 40 player defeats a top 10 player, why is it such a big deal? That comment makes it sound like something like that never happens.
@Donjoe The fact that they will deliver to Northern Ireland but not to the Republic is what bothers me most. Sure, they use GBP up North but as I said, they could at lest offer a paid shipping option for the Republic of Ireland.
I'm looking forward to "getting used to" the control scheme. I do wish the option was there to enjoy a classic setup but we'll just have to trust Nintendo with that omission.
Unbelievable. I checked my e-mail around 25 minutes after it was sent and by the time I was able to get online it was gone. I don't want to buy all three games separately. I seriously hope Nintendo decides to put out more of these due to demand.
If physical games won't be rewarded at all, then I guess I won't be earning many coins. That's a shame because I really liked Club Nintendo and the rewards scheme. I have a feeling that the rewards will be digital only, too :-/
I really want this game but can't justify spending €60 right now. I really hope the first prints with the Shadow Mewtwo card will hang around for a while though, otherwise I might just have to bite earlier than I want to.
If these options remain exactly that then there is absolutely no need for people to make a fuss. It's one thing for a game to implement hand-holding on a regular basis. It is an entirely different thing if a game offers help if so desired. Nintendo are giving players a choice.
You guys forgot to mention Dragon Quest VII! I know we weren't given a solid date, but there were a couple of minutes of footage on the Direct last night!
I hope this turns out good because it looks lovely.
On a slightly different note; am I the only one who is irked by Nintendo suggesting we use our fingers/hands on the touch screen. That's what the stylus is there for!
I hope this gets a physical release. I've been looking forward to this since it was announced as SMTxFE. No English dub pleases me too. If the game is set in Japan it makes perfect sense keeping the original language.
Cool Hopefully this means they'll pay a bit of attention to the fact that GAME don't operate in Ireland anymore so we have no way of attending in-store events here. I always have to have a UK based friend do a code-obtaining run for me.

Re: Corpse Party Looks Set to Bring Some Mature Horror to the 3DS
Never heard of this but it sounds interesting! I'm always up for a bit of survival horror! A physical release would be nice.

Re: Mighty No. 9's Release Date Remains A Mighty Mystery
The hype-train for this game derailed a while ago, it seems. I'd still like to play it but I'm not excited at all anymore.
Re: Preview: Preferring the Air in Star Fox Zero
I'm really looking forward to this!
Re: Soapbox: No, Star Fox Zero's Controls Are not Bad or Broken
I'm looking forward to "getting used to" the control scheme. I do wish the option was there to enjoy a classic setup but we'll just have to trust Nintendo with that omission.
Re: Nintendo of Europe Rolls Out Official Online Stores In More Countries
Still no option for The Republic of Ireland though. I'd be happy with the option to use the UK store and pay for shipping :-/
Re: Looks Like Nintendo's Familiar Red And White Branding Is Back For Good
Nice. The red and white looks sleek.

Re: Junichi Masuda Reassures Fans on New Pocket Monsters for Pokémon Sun and Moon
7.8/10 - Too many Pokémon.
Seriously though, I'm really looking forward to Sun/Moon I really hope they're full-on new adventures with a new region to boot.
Re: Akira Tago Passes Away at Age 90
I was only reading about him last night. How bizarre Rest in peace, Akira Tago.
Re: Smash 4 Receives Yet Another Patch
I wonder if they're really ironing out stability to get a final version ready for NX?

Re: Pokémon Creative Director Dies at Age 42
What a tragic accident May he rest in peace. Condolences to his family and friends, and especially to his daughter.

Re: Takashi Tezuka Began Development On Zelda: Link's Awakening Without Nintendo's Permission
This is arguably my favourite Zelda game. I absolutely adore it!

Re: Star Fox Zero Launching April 22nd on Wii U
I think I'll bite at that launch edition!

I hope this turns out good because it looks lovely.

Re: Kirby Is Taking A Trip To Planet Robobot This June
This looks excellent. I might have to finally get an amiibo reader for my 3DS.
Re: Video: New Azure Striker Gunvolt 2 Trailer Showcases Summer Release
Looks great! Was the first game download only or did it have a physical release too?
Re: Genei Ibun Roku #FE Is Now Called Tokyo Mirage Sessions #FE In The West, Arrives In June
I hope this gets a physical release. I've been looking forward to this since it was announced as SMTxFE. No English dub pleases me too. If the game is set in Japan it makes perfect sense keeping the original language.

Nice! Fire Emblem, Yo-Kai Watch, Dragon Quest, 2nd Nintendo Selects range for Europe being confirmed...I'm hoping for these things!
Re: Poll: The World Can't Get Enough Of Pokémon Yellow, But Which One Did You Buy?
I got Blue because it's the only one of the three I don't have physically
Re: Reminder: Mythical Pokémon Celebi Is Now Available to Download in Current-Gen Games
I got a Celebi for X and one for OR last night. I already had the Pokémon Bank one too, so I'm delighted to have three of my own!
Re: Nintendo of America Confirms New Wii U, 3DS and Wii Nintendo Selects Titles for 11th March
Great! I really hope this Selects range comes to Europe too. If so, I'll get both DK games, OoT 3D and Pikmin 3!

Re: Trademarks And Logos For The Next Pokémon Game Surface Online Ahead Of Tomorrow's Nintendo Direct
@Lizuka Yeah, I know that. My comment was in regards to spoilers in general nowadays.
Anyways, back on topic. I wonder if we'll see some new Pokémon today? New starters?
Re: Poll: Vote for Your Favourite Main Series Pokémon Games - 20th Anniversary Edition
I went with Yellow, Soul Silver and X.
Yellow was my first Pokémon game, I got it for my birthday in 2000 having borrowed my friend's copy of Red for a few years (he had Red and Blue).
Soul Silver is my favourite. 16 gyms and fantastic presentation. That game was a true adventure!
I voted for X because it's the one I played the most
Re: Trademarks And Logos For The Next Pokémon Game Surface Online Ahead Of Tomorrow's Nintendo Direct
Ugh....I'm pretty sick of the internet spoiling absolutely everything these days. I saw this early yesterday.
Re: Missingno is Still in the Virtual Console Releases of Pokémon
I'm glad they didn't remove it. It's Pokémon history!

Shin Megami Tensei IV is currently discounted from €19.99 to €9.99 in the EU e-shop too.
Re: Video: See the Contents of the Bravely Second End Layer Deluxe Collector's Edition in our Unboxing
I really wanted this edition but I couldn't justify the price at the time. I'll be happy enough with a physical copy of the game
Re: Fire Emblem Fates Becomes Fastest Selling Release in Franchise History in the US
It will be an absolute travesty if this game somehow doesn't end up getting released in Europe. I REALLY want a special edition copy.
Re: Nintendo Announces a Pokémon Direct to Get the Celebrations Started
Interesting! I'm expecting another announcement on the 27th to coincide with the official anniversary
Re: Yo-kai Watch Begins Its European Quest on 29th April
I've been looking forward to this game for ages I'll check out the anime too.
Re: Rising Star Games Is Bringing 3DS Action RPG Sadame To Europe This Month
Looks good! I'll be keeping my eye on this one.
Re: Here's How Much Of Your Wii U's Internal Memory Pokkén Tournament Will Gobble Up
But will the physical release require a large chunk of HD space to run smoothly too?
Re: Weirdness: See What Other Smash Fighters Would Look Like with Bayonetta's Proportions

Re: The Original Pokémon Starters Have Been Added as Costumes in Super Mario Maker
Brilliant! Can't wait to get these
Re: Mega Man Is Blasting His Way To Nintendo Badge Arcade
@CorruptPhoenix Maybe that's part of it. I have a standard 3DS XL. I guess it loads a lot faster on a New 3DS.
