Same here, I played Zen Pinball 3d a lot so it's definitely really cool to have 4 new tables to play with. Zen tables seem to always seem fresh and I can never tire of them
You know what's fun about this? North American gamers (and probably European too) will never get MH3G, and will probably never get MH4 either. Oh how I love Capcom
3DS a hit in japanNot doing so well in other regionsBest selling game on 3ds in Japan: monster hunterDifference between 3DS in Japan and other region: No monster hunter
What the capcom do you need a drawing or something
@grumblebuzzz Totally agree with that My 3DS has been gathering dust for the last few months, and I scarcely ever visit the eshop again for lack of anything good to download
Might try Kirby Block Ball, which looks pretty cool. I really, really, really hope they bring us Wario Land, Kirby's Dream Land 2 and Game & Watch 2 soon, seeing as those are big GB titles and the games of my childhood, and in the past few months it has looked like NOA deems that north american players enjoy Iphone apps more than Wario Land or Kirby classic games, which is a bummer
Funny things: In the last two months North American gamers have had only one GB VC game, and it's Maru's Mission (which in my book barely qualifies for a game at all)
Will probably get Colors though, this one looks pretty neat, and it would be cool if the pictures can be saved on 3DS cards and then send through swapnotes or something
>Implying one wouldn't pay more than 99 cents for Castlevania I or III, any NES Megaman, NES Zelda, Metroid I, Mario 1-2-3, Ninja Gaiden, Contra, Gradius, Ghost and Goblins, etc, etc
I wish Nintendo would stop being a bitch with North America for the VC. Hell, I mean we didn't even get Mario Land 3 yet, and for most titles Europe gets I have just given up hope of ever see them cross the sea
"Rhythm Heaven games are the kind whose sole purpose is to make you smile" I would say rhythm heaven for DS failed at making me smile, it did succeed however at making me rage and making me want to throw my DS across the room several times
I love how nintendo is slowly killing its games with win buttons
First Mario 3d land which rewards you with an invincibility suit for failing and now Fire Emblem that ditches the "try to keep your team alive" and goes for "meh just do whatever you can resurrect them" approach. Really, it seems that nowadays its obligatory for a game to be beatable by a 3 year old without effort.
When I was a kid, I would get stuck on bosses or levels of some games and be unable to get past them for months, and when I would finally beat it I would be really proud of myself. When replaying these games and getting to these segments I have chills of memories from my childhood and I'm like "oh damn it's this part". If any level of a game can be beaten in 5 minutes, then the game will not make an impression and not be memorable
Stop making non-casual games casual, it's not like Fire Emblem was this hardcore anyways, but at least keep the bit of difficulty that gave it a little edge and made it fun to play

Re: Nintendo Download: 9th August 2012 (North America)
I love how they pretended to be catching up to European VC for a few weeks and then went like "naaaah we were just messing with you"
Re: Review: Wario Land II (3DS eShop / Game Boy)
Am I the only one who thinks that Wario Land 2 was infinitely better than Wario Land 3?
It seems everyone is like "Yeah WL3 was the best"
Re: Review: Castlevania: The Adventure (3DS eShop / Game Boy)
So... am I the only one who didn't hate that game?

Re: Reggie Fils-Aime: Fanbase Demands Are 'Insatiable'
" 'Damnit Reggie, when you launch, you better launch with a Mario game.' So we launch with a Mario game, and they say, 'So what's more?' "
A new system with a Mario game is cool, a new system with a mario game and pretty much zero other games is not the way to go.

And Monster Hunter 3G
Re: Nintendo Denies 3DS Redesign, Wii U Price Revelation
3DS doesn't need a redesign, 3DS needs a more solid roster of games

I deeply hate you for this

Re: Review: Game & Watch Gallery 2 (3DS eShop)
Can't wait for in 2 years when it will be released in north america
Re: Nintendo Download: 19th April 2012 (Europe)
Looking at Europe VC, it seems it's been slowing down in the last few weeks. Does that mean NA will finally catch up, or is the eshop just dead?

Good thing, it seems NoA doesn't want my money anymore
Re: Nintendo Download: 5th April 2012 (Europe)
Hey look, a EU update that looks like then ones US get every week
Re: Nintendo Download: 22nd March 2012 (Europe)
Europe 3DS VC gets a new title each week. Meanwhile, in the USA, one new title every month (maybe)
Re: Review: Dragon Crystal (3DS Virtual Console / Game Gear)
It is the case, basically you want to kill all enemies on a floor and then move on to the next
Re: God of War NES Demake Released
Am I the only one who thinks this looks really amateur-ish and really not that meaty. It looks like one of those Game Maker games I did when I was 12
