The best Nintendo on-line game ever by quite some way for me. I`ve retired for a while to play pocket football but I`ll be back. Great article Nintendolife for such an amazing game.
By the way.... Has anyone out there got better than my 64 winning streak?
NPFC is here!!! Pre-ordered a copy as present for my friends son for his Birthday and will be puchasing myself on Thursday with my credit left over from Christmas. Cool demos too, which I will be of course downloading.
Still think all these GBA games would be better suited to my 3DS.
I`m really excited about this game. Great review by the way NintendoLife. I really like the fact that you have to watch each game and can`t skip it. I shall be spending lots of time on it, I`m sure.
Been waiting for this game for quite sometime. I really do need something to take me away from SUB WARS, I`ve also been waiting on price details, so thanks NintendoLife for the news.
A lot of time (6 years) and effort has gone into making this game. Football sims over the years have got so detailed, they seems to have forgoten what these games are all about.
I have a good feeling about this from seeing the Jap release do well . Together, with the great reviews the game got there. I am very happy with the price and did expect it to be around this price.
I would expect a lot of time will be spent on this by me, when I get it next Thursday. A £10 for at least a few hundred hours of gameplay, sounds pretty good to me. A few of my mates are getting this too and can`t wait to swap players and play against them.
The update has made such a difference... Still getting a few error messages but it`s keeping my winning streak going, I`ve gone from level 46 to 48 in just a few hours.
@unrandomsam
You do start off the same, if you purchase the full game. There are such small differences in the subs untill you get higher up in level. I see the free to play thing as a demo really.
@unrandomsam
The subs in the PREMIUM version are just as good and get better as you progress through the levels. I`ve just un-locked the super cod and that`s way stronger than any additional purchased sub.
This was a great move by Nintendo and I purchased the full game a day after playing the free-play version. By the way, I`m not really a FPS fan and really didn`t think I would like this game.
Since the release, I`ve developed a serious addiction to the on-line play and have clocked up to level 36. However, this great game is made very frustrating by the serious lack of service from the ever so poor servers.
This made me crack up... Are sure sure???? I don`t see that in the game but I have never watched them shows. All I care about is BRAVELY SECOND and THIRD.
@IceRod Haha, I did mean in real life!!! A very brave choice too mess with them cats, you must have a very powerful Ice Rod... Or a very strached up face...
@unrandomsam FPS`s never did use two sticks, the thing is mechanics of certain types of games have moved on. I can`t imagine many people wanting to play a FPS like that anymore. DOOM is the best FPS ever, in my eyes.
I suppose the lack of FPS games on the 3DS, really comes from no second stick, until the release of the circle pro. Well, that and the number of countless FPS games on other consoles. I`m the only one that doesn`t like FPS games in my group of friends, but I`m the only one of us that owns a 3DS. However, I really can`t imagine them wanting to play this, not over their brand new gen FPS game.
It`s a real bold move by Renegade Kid to release this on the 3DS. Not only because how many 3DS users actually own a circle pad extension but also is the audience of the 3DS really interested in FPS games.
@daveh30 Wow… Wish I had a friend like that. That`s very nice of him to lend you his EU 3DS and brand new game that he`s just imported and bought. I would not dream of lending one of my mates this game especially as I know they don’t like JRPG`s. Your friend must have really liked it and probably wanted you to experience what he has.
@daveh30
Haha, you really make no sense. If you don`t like JRPG`s....... Then why would you play/buy the game in the first place?????? I don`t like puzzle or FPS games, so why would I bother to form an opinion about one or play one for that matter. Good to hear some people in Canada got the game way before anyone else in NoA, tho.
@unrandomsam
Mate, hope you are well? I have played over 140hrs of this great game. I really don`t remember wasting any of my time at any point. The SP drink is not pay to win, that`s not how it works man.
@daveh30 Haha, have you even played the game? This amazing game is far from dumb. Just have a look at some of the reviews for this game on the internet.
I`m a big fan of Shin`en and have most of their stuff. I hope the name lives up to the game. One of my favourite eshop titles is AiRace and that`s what I call fast.
@Savino Dam right... I owned a record shop upto about 2005 and lost a serious amount of money because of mp3 downloads. The sweet sound of vinyl is still the only choice for me brother and is prettty much all I play in a club. I do think people are starting to see the problems of using mp3 services tho.
Amazon in the Uk are a really great company. Only ever had great experiences from price - service. Keep stocking them Nintendo products Amazon and I shall keep buying them off you.
When kids grow up, they will buy a real console. A fruit phone/pad is like a modern day rattle these days. I really can`t see Sony offering many younger player/family games.
@Great_Gonzalez I`m as upset about RF4 as you. I sent emails to publishers like GHOSTLIGHT, asking if they would pick up the rights for the EU release, following a post I saw on here by the legend of @mch
Nintendo needs to be clever and take all the expensive second-hand games up for sale on sites like ebay and get them on the VC. There are some second-hand shops including GAME that are making serious margins on used DS titles. A good start would be Fire Emblem / Mario Kart / Mario Bros / Castlevania games / Phoenix Wright / Megaman ZX . The more rare and expensive DS titles the better. I spent at least a £100 on old DS game on ebay last year alone.
