Just the demo. However I'm guessing the stories won't be linked. Also, there's no free-roam in the first one. From my understanding it got pretty good reviews.
@FishieFish I knooow! This may sound wierd, but sometimes Nintendo's family-friendly image gets in the way, y'know?
I was so freakin' desperate for a shooter I considered buying Conduit 3DS... Before it got canned. Renegade Kid and VD-Dev are the only developer making a shooter on 3DS. :/
It has fantastic developer support, 1st, 2nd, and 3rd party, good indie support, but it needs more fleshing out with certain genres, all I get with a search "First-Person Shooter" using the advanced search feature on the eShop are those stupid rail shooters and a deer hunting game.
It says alot about a developer who makes a game, receives critical praise for it, but doesn't act all high and mighty. Could you see EA or Activison using emoticons? I don't think so. Developers with humanity are the best! I look forward to the sequel. Best eShop game this year.
Regardless, I mean, meh. They say they have a strong relationship with third-party devs? Okay, okay, and games are coming. But do they interest people? They need COD, Battlefield, GTA, Mass Effect, Final Fantasy, Mega Man, Resident Evil, and while some of these games are on WiiU, they're not nearly enough.
Wish I had one. I had the perfecf FE:A moment a while ago. I sliced Roy's back after a Luna attack ( Brave Sword ) and BAM! Sparks flew, Roy's hands were thrown upwards! It was glorious. It was straight down attack from Lon'qu.
I'm no programmer, but doesn't that depend on how much you use the Gamepad? For example, if you only use it for a map versus a map, weapon inventory, etc.?
Pssh, all this haters are the same people whining about developers overlook WiiU. And now that a PORT is PAYING ATTENTION TO THE GAMEPAD, you're all angry.
I've read some of his books, and I have Splinter Cell 3D. I heard about this yesterday and just couldn't believe it at first. The gaming industry's lost some great people recently. Rest in peace Mr. Clancy.
I'm surprised by the lack of 3DS screenshots. It's actually stupid. Sorry, it's true. And before I get swarmed by people saying 'Be grateful for these!' , no. I don't have a WiiU. If Nintendo wants my money they better show me why they should get it!
As I've asked before: are the maps and characters the same for versions? I don't mean graphics, I mean layout and selection. Someone please answer, I've asked this every SSB4 article.

Well, what I saw of the Direct was great, however I kept getting an error message RIGHT as Sonic was announced, must've been too much traffic. So thanks for this @ThomasBW84!
I was holding out for more news on Batman, though.

Hehe, thanks guys! Now I've definitely gotta get one.
Re: Review: AiRace Speed (3DS eShop)
@BulbasaurusRex Well, it seems like it was intended by the developers to a wholly different experience.
@TG1
Indeed. :/ Anyway, a 7's a solid score.

Re: Review: Pokémon X & Y (3DS)
Firstly, thanks to @superconsole for the review!
Now to over-hype!
I can't wait! I'm getting Y first, then X, it'll be my first Pokemon game( I know, I know ), and now I'm definitely freaking out over here!
Re: Parent Trap: Nintendo 2DS Family Stress Test
@rjejr Nah, it wasn't sarcasm. Huh, I heard it battery life sucked.

So a huge fan mob is running towards you, do you:
A: Stand still and get trampled
B: Apologize for trashing Pokemon and beg for your life
or
C: Hope all their doing is picking up pre-orders?
Tick tock man. >:]
Y will be my first Pokemon! So excited!
Re: Review: AiRace Speed (3DS eShop)
I don't get it.
The only fault( from my understanding) with the game is it's small, and limits the vehicle selection. So what?! It's five bucks.
I don't see how this warrants a 7. This game literally improved itself in every way over its predecessors. It seems like you're judging it as a demo.
I don't mean to discredit your opinion or offend you, but this review simply is confusing.
