So it's a remake of a demake of a reimagining of a N64 game? Ok.
They should've just remade Harvest Moon 64, while adding in the features and improvements of Back to Nature and Friends of Mineral Town.
@FTPinkRabbit
This has nothing to do with Natsume, it's Marvelous. It will most likely be called Story of Seasons overseas.

Animal characters in Sonic have toeless, flipper-like feet:

I guess removing their shoes would give them an advantage in swimming events?

What a pointless article and "study".
I guess this is where we share our hot opinions on the current debacle though, so here's mine: I would somewhat buy their excuse for not adding all Pokémon to the game, if the game in question didn't look like a Wii title at best and didn't use a ton of reused assets. As it stands, it seems like GameFreak are just trying to have their cake and eat it too.
There, I'm sure nobody else has shared this exact same stance, and I'm sure nobody would ignore it and pretend people are just hating because they're meanies.

@Chimaj You're not, I also didn't like it much. I thought the writing was rather weak and there was really no gameplay to speak of. A lot of people really liked it though, apparently.

Highlight of the Direct for me. Would've preferred they ported one of the first three games instead though, I just started 4 on 3DS...

@LoveEmpath

Cool, but I already got their DIY kit for an original Mega Drive controller, and that's working great for 2D games so far. I'd consider getting one of these if they release one with analog sticks, like they did with their SNES-like controllers.

Release dates for Baba is You and Untitled Goose Game please, thanks.

Would've been interested in Asterix XXL2 if it was at a much lower price...
And I'm still iffy about them skipping a remake of the first one and jumping straight to the second, though I get why they did it.

@Blizzia
I dunno, the trophies were always a highlight for me in Smash, since I love collecting stuff. I hope the spirity sticker things have little trivia texts, at least.

The official website says that some of the master trainers will have a "simple request for you" instead of wanting to battle. I'm guessing that would apply for Pokémon like Magikarp and Ditto, for which you'd have to catch a certain number of them or have Ditto transform into a specific number of Pokémon, or something along those lines.

Nothing in that quote suggests you need to battle them with the same Pokémon.

@Pete41608
Great Scott! A time traveller from the 90s!

@bratzdoll "JKR was still not on Twitter."
Don't remind me of the good times.

How come they didn't include Pikachu's amazing, groundbreaking Double Kick animation?

@Agramonte I still consider the Saturn and Mega Drive controllers the best and most comfortable for 2D games.
I've got one of these MD DIY things ordered, waiting for it to arrive. Hopefully, it will work as advertised.

This is one of the first games I remember seeing/playing as a kid. It was the arcade version and I was probably like 4. I might get this, I've explored my kid and early teens nostalgia enough, I need to try going even further back.

Wonder Boy is very tempting at that price, but I wanted the physical release.

I remember back in the early days when digital distribution was just looming over us, I was actually really for it, thinking it would result in lower prices of games for the end consumer. I was wrong and learned never to underestimate the greed of large corporations.

Your apartment seems pretty roomy actually. Maybe it just seems like it from the video.
@impurekind Well, if it was just a poster, NintendoLife probably wouldn't have made a video about it. I know I haven't heard about the game before now.

Honestly, Go has been boring me so much lately that I welcome ANY kind of variety. Be it just a pic change for IV evaluation.

Rune Factory 4 doesn't seem to be discounted... Mistake or it's just for mainland Europe and not UK?

@electrolite77 I think it's ok for that price. It definitely shows it was an afterthought version, and its not as good as the Rush games on DS, but I enjoyed it.
I might finally get the 3D editions of the first two Sonic games, although I've lost track of how many times I've rebought them now. Wish they made a 3D Sonic 3 & Knuckles or Sonic CD.

I'm calling my firstborn Mega Rayquaza and there's nothing anyone can do about it.

Spark looks rad, glad I trusted my instincts in choosing a team.
Is Blanche supposed to be a shemale or what? Candela looks alright.

First it was the green eyes, then it was the blue arms. I wonder what people would complain about next? His shoe size number? Shape of the nose? How much ketchup he puts on his chili dogs?

@Pikachupwnage Go away, Sigma.

@Moon I enjoyed Pokemon TCG a lot, enough to collect all the cards, and I'm also not into TCG games generally. The most I've played is Yu-Gi-Oh years ago, and only in video game form. I think it's worth it, especially at that price.
Got quite a lot of stuff off this sale. It came right on time for me too, as I just got my Wii U like a month ago. Along with the Humble Bundle games, I have a nice big pile of games to keep me busy now.

I'm still bitter that my purchase of Pulseman is tied to the Wii mode of the Wii U with no way to transfer it, but I guess that's really more Sega's fault for not supporting the Wii U VC. What bugs me more is that it seems other system VC games and WiiWare games would not be transferrable over to future systems. Oh well.
Here's hoping that we see a bigger improvement of the eShop moving onto the NX.

Uh, yeah, that's Kyle Hyde with black hair. Even if it's not him, it's basically the exact same design.
And the woman kinda looks like Ashley's mom.
I'll be keeping an eye on this, I honestly didn't expect to see these guys pop up again.

Was planning on getting one or two of the Pokémon rereleases, but at that price I could only justify it if they added online functionality or some other bells and whistles, or they had some sort of "buy 2 get 1 free" deal. I still have my Yellow cartridge anyway.
I'm surprised at the Megaman collection's low price, though. I'd consider it, since the only one I played through to the end was 9, but as someone already said the GC Anniversary Collection is better value.

Yeah, I can't really see them giving us the option of having games on several devices simultaneously. I'm guessing it'll be something like, you have to go online and uninstall a game to be able to install it on another device. Which would still be better than what we have now, but it would still suck if the system you have it downloaded on breaks or gets lost.
I'd love to be proven wrong, though.

It looks like your typical lazy mobile game, visual-wise. Gameplay seems like the regular Harvest Moon fare, though. The map seems really similar to the SNES one for some reason.
And for everyone that keeps repeating how this is not a "real" Harvest Moon, and how it's ruining the image of the franchise - it's not like the series had that clean of a track record in the first place. Plus, barely any of the original creators still work at Marvellous either. Yeah, it kinda sucks that Natsume is taking advantage of the situation, but that's business, what can you do.
Oh yeah, my favourite one will always be 64.

@paganSVK Well, that's good then, I guess we'll just have to wait. Now if only they allow us to switch regions once our eShops become available.

@CroRock The eShop doesn't seem to be available in the countries in question, at least not yet. Either the news was fake after all, or the date was changed. I suppose only time will tell.
Anyway, even if they do open it eventually, your Nintendo Network ID is tied to the country you registered in originally, so you'll have to make a completely new account to use your region's eShop. Unless they give us some option to change the account region in the future.

I completely forgot about this game, my big brother got it from somewhere way back when I was little. I only remember the questions in the game giving me trouble, as my English knowledge was extremely limited at the time.

@shigulicious Same, it was pretty great.
I wonder if AeternoBlade is good at that price.

I expect nothing, and I'm still let down.
Well, Xenoblade for 8.99 is pretty good, sadly I still haven't gotten around to getting a Wii U.

Wow, didn't think I'd see Bulgaria on the list there. I'd have thunk Nintendo wouldn't bother, seeing how small the console market is here, and what little there is is mostly taken by Sony.
I'm happy though, now I'll finally be able to change my 3DS to my actual region, instead of pretending to be a Brit.
