Me too. Though I hope the game is not as "tiny" as the trailer suggests. =]

I kind of agree with Peek-a-boo. 4 Euro is not much for 1-2 hours well made content. I mean even full retail games tend to last only 10 hours or less sometimes. In your Scoring Police the only argument for giving this a 4 instead of a 5 at least is "Repetitiveness". I won't argue with you about this since I haven't even played the game, but I find a 4 pretty harsh for a game that tries to do something unique and -regarding the review- does so pretty successfully, except from short lenght and backtracking.
Maybe I try it, but my backlog. =/

@GammaPhonic Basically he wears the same face in every picture online. ^^
But I actually have the impression that he is indeed smiling in these. Like when you smile, but also think you should look serious.

@CB85: I got the same impression. He seems to be a pretty solid choice. He has experience in a lot of fields. I don't think it is bad for him not being a developer. After all he got two "sidekicks" that fill that gap.
But I also find it rather curious that they chose someone that old (I mean, in Germany one would retire at that age). So I also got the impression that they are basically buying time. But maybe we will be surprised seeing this guy leading Nintendo until he's 105.
I find it a bit superficial to think he isn't a nice guy just based on this one picture of him not smiling.

@Tsurii: Why do you get bothered by additional features that you don't have to use in the game if you don't want?

@nintendozero: I didn't see anyone complaining, just stating what they are going to buy.
It's rather questionable, if the download-survey should be a general what-are-you-going-to-buy-survey rather than a digital only survey.

Getting Etrian Mystery Dungeon physically at some point and keeping an eye on The Swindle and Star Sky. I am not the type of person to have too much fun playing Super Mario Maker, but I sure look forward seeing people play the heck out of it on Youtube. =]
Unfortunately I neither like building levels nor am I good at Jump'n'Runs.

@AlexOlney Awesome. Only thing missing is some totally unidentifiable picture of something disgusting-looking.

They sure push out a lot of spinoffs and they all look great.
I want them all!
But right now I am actually interested the most in that palico-village-sim, because I love that artstyle. I look forward to MHX too.
This one seems the least unique in terms of design and gameplay so far, but I like turn based RPGs and Monster Hunter, so there is no reason not to get it for me (except it being not localised).
I love that the story takes a different perspective on the whole monsterslayingaction.

@Discipledoctor Why did you hate Dual Destinies? I played the demo and didn't really like it (found it boring). Later I bought the Trilogy on sale and liked the game a lot. I thought I might buy Dual Destinies when the next sale is on, since I have a different perspective on the series now.

This looks rather nice with the dark mythic appeal!
But I would have loved The Great Ace Attorney to be localised too.
Well, maybe they change their minds sometime.

@CTMike I agree.
Though I never played a game of the series I always found the design sympathetic. I would love to see an animated movie for it and I think you could make a great one about Mega Man.
I cannot judge whether those companies can make a good movie, but I sure hope so.

@crimsontadpoles I'm with you. It looks alright and interesting, but I am not that interested and never expected it to be a game that becomes that hyped at all.

I might even get this, though I was not really into Animal Crossing New Leaf.
I found the main game too boring, since it was basically just grinding (catching bugs in hourlong sessions to pay Nook to expand the house to grind again to pay Nook to expand the house to ....). There was not much to explore and the things one could do seemed pretty limited to me, though I spend like even 50 hours on the game. I like how charming the world is and the design of the characters though! I just wished there was more to do and less fees to pay.
I think I would be quite happy with this game though I usually like to be challenged. But playing Sims homedesigning always was the most fun part of the game, so I think I will like it anyway.

Did this ever get a EU release? Probably not I guess?

Um....I vor 8950 stars...I can get this or the Toad lamp. I like this a little more, but with 1950 stars left I probably cannot get anything else interesting. Always hoped for the ALBW-soundtrack to return. If it dies, I couldn't afford it, but probably it doesn't and I lose 500 stars by the end of August...

2 coasters for 400 Euro...if you think about it it gets even worse.....O.o

I'm so annoyed by this. I thought this was a set of maybe 10 or 8 of those containing all the designs. Even if I had to decide for one design and got like 10 of them I would be glad to get them, but seriously? You get 2 of these in a design of your choice? For the same price as a soundtrack?
Whats their actual worth? Like 20cents? O.o
I was reaaally looking forward to these since they have somehow an actual use and look rather neat. =/

And I even hoped for them to release this month since I got 500stars that will expire by the end of this month and I have no clue on what to use them. I so hoped the Link Between Worlds soundtrack would return too, but it does not look like it. I got about 9000 stars and don't know what to get. The Toadlamp is cool, but also small and kind of useless.
I'm not really interested in the MK8 soundtrack, unfortunately...
Argh.

This game was my first Mario game. It made me learn that I am really bad with Jump'n'runs. I loved it since I got it with my GBA, but never got past the first level of World 1. I think the difficulty steps up way to fast from level 1 to level 2. I hardly managed to fly to the other side of that canyon with that magic carpet. The few times I did, I got almost killed shortly afterwards when trying to get that key out of the vase. O.o
I tried it a few years ago again and found it slightly easier, but still failed to proceed any further in that level.
I was about 12 when I got that game.
But still I love the general design of the game. I would love Mario to explore new territories like this one did (in a way...).

So.....Americans have been complaining that Yoshi's Woolly World arrives 3 Months late for them, huh?
Seriously, I am pretty disappointed that Europe hardly gets a game at all this year. =/
Otherwise I am looking forward to Fire Emblem, Etrian Odyssey, Zelda, Yokai Watch and Pokemon Mystery Dungeon.

Shantae and Guacamelee!

Ah, okay, thank you! Don't freak me out like that.

@Samuel-Flutter Hm? Club Nintendo is shutting down tomorrow? Did I miss something? What exactly is supposed to be closed? It is closed in september, isn't it? Most of the rewards announced one or two months ago haven't even been released.

@russellohh Hmmm, well I do not really consider it platforming, when you basically just have to walk towards a gap in the floor to jump over it. As a jump'n'run hater I actually love that there is hardly any platforming involved in Zelda games.

@Grumblevolcano Oh you get to transform back right afterwards? That gives me the will to try this again. I kinda dropped the game after I realised the mess I was in. ^^

@Sanicranfast
Okay, well, I skipped a lot of the sidequests, which I regretted immediately after I had to fight Phantom Ganondorf in the forest temple with only 5 or 6 hearts. Since I lost my fairies before and didn't get a refill, it was a short battle indeed.
But I did not realise, that I could not do them anymore when I was adult, though this should have been pretty obvious.

@MadAdam81 How is the platforming annoying if there actually isn't really any? You cannot even jump.
I am only halfway in, but cannot remember any fetch quest so far or at least no lenghty ones? What are you referring too.
I thought the game was overrated too, but when I started playing I felt the magic! Maybe it still is overrated, but I love it a lot. I am a huge sucker for the Zelda characters and design.

Google translate produces the following "translation":
"O'clock tomorrow June 13 11 am, new weapon "Sharp marker" is added. It's fast shooter of the bullets of roses with less fire. ATK's low, but quite useful if Aim for tightly basis. Sub "Kyubanbomu", Special's "Bum Rush"."

In German it even describes the gun as decorated with roses. ^^

@KomrathDE
You can still add stars via the codes in the game cases.

I contacted Nintendo because I wanted to know if this was battery powered or what and if it was more a nightlight or a proper lamp.
Unfortunately they couldn't tell me.
Would guess it's battery powered and a nightlight, judging by its really small size?

I think the shelf-space-problem retailers are having is the most serious issue in at least Germany. Gamestops usually are very small and electrical retailers have a lot other products to claim the shelf-space they have.
Discovered slightly irritated that my local store apparently stopped ordering enough of each new amiibo. They have two relatively small areas to keep them and there seems to be not much more room to have much more than two of each of the new wave. Will look for Daraen later on in another store.

Didn't have any problems in Germany. Where in Europe is this a problem anyway? Thought only the US had that much of an issue.
Will go to the store this evening and get a Daraen. Usually they sell them even the day before already at my local Saturn.
Some German Let's player even bought them on Tuesday in a store and made an Unboxing for some.

@Grumblevolcano
It was Mario Party 10 and as already mentioned I could register it.
So obviously it still works with this game at least in Europe.

Just for being completely certain:
I can still register retail games via the Club Nintendo codes until 30th September, right?
Was a little shocked when I coudn't register Mario Party a week ago, but this probably was due to site maintainance since it worked again yesterday.

Still holding out to see some items return. Would get the Link between Worlds CD and the Mario Kart Shirt if nothing better pops up and those two return. Was too hesitant before.

Are you sure about the price?
It was a special offer in the first few days when it did indeed cost 4,99.
Now it is already its normal price of 19,99 which is rather extreme.

I thought about buying this, but was a little hesitant.
I went with Boxboy instead which I did not regret so far.

Apparently I am very lucky to live in Dresden. Our major electronic stores and even Toys'r'Us do seem to have enough of the toys.
At least Lucario and Rosalina were in stock, though I did not see Metaknight.
For getting Pikachu, Samus and Toon-Link I just had to go to the store anyways and I do not expect having to preorder figures of the waves to come.

@hybridseed
Thanks a lot! <3

Still hoping for a EU-code too. =/

I would love to have an EU-code.
Somehow I never get an e-mail from Nintendo for those distributions.

Thank you really much if you have a spare one for me.

Hm...
I got Monster Hunter 3 Ultimate on my 3DS, but was allways annoyed by the not-functioning onlinemode. At the moment I live in a flat, where it is really not quite possible to connect via lan cable.
When Monster Hunter 4 was announced I was hoping it would come to Wii U and that I could buy the new version instead.
Now this really is a difficult decision. The offer is tempting, the price is nice, my backlog enormous...so many other things to do and play.....aaaargh!

Wondering whether to pick this or Pokemon Link Battle?

Loved Attack of the Friday Monsters for its original and innocent appeal! Though the end did not really satisfy me. Same thing with Weapon Shop de Omasse. You might need new Screen Protectors afterwards, by the way. ;–] Did not really play Starship Damrey so far but it seems quite great. Got surprisingly addicted to Inazuma Eleven, since I like the idea of non-fantasy-rpgs. Though I am not really into football. Only Level 5 game I did not really enjoy was Crimson Shroud, since it felt quite dry with it´s boardgame-appeal.

I don't have much of a clue of the Mario games in general, so I hope I won't get flamed for asking this, but can someone around here tell me if (i would expect so) there is a conceptual difference to distinguish Mario Land from Mario World from Marion Bros. titles? What is it?

Am I the only one who hates Toadette?
Of all the Mario Kart Characters she annoys me the most.
I mean come on: Her plaits are rows of mushrooms. ^^

@ Gustoff rjejr ist probably more right than I am about the amount of blocks. I jut remembered something about 1000 and something containing a 4. ;-]

@Gustoff : I think it was about 1400 blocks or something like that.

I suck at getting back on the stage.
Thought I managed this quite okay in Brawl, but this seems to be quite a bit faster!

I really miss the kickstarter updates. =/ Why haven't there been any recently? I know some people were complaining that posting them every week was too often, but I was always looking forward to them. Maybe every two weeks? Or did they just stop because there are not many interesting titles around at the moment? I'd be so glad to have them back. =]

Thank you really much Hardline, but unfortunately someone stole the code from me and the other one was used aswell. Thank you very much for trying anyways!

Still hoping for a EU Code. =/
[email protected]

Could it even matter what part of Europe a code is from? Also regarding the language the Miis speak?

@Bisylizzie Read some minutes ago Australia is indeed part of the EU region.

Nice idea making an own topic for this purpose.
I'm already waiting hopefully and nervously for an EU code to appear. ;-]
