IMO the series went completely downhill with the arrival of Gen 6. Excessive Gen 1 pandering, awful story and characters which are even more noticeable given that Gen 5 had the absolute best, consistently shoving in pointless gimmicks that are forgotten in the next games (Mega Evolutions, Z Crystals, Alolan Forms). The series is just a shadow of its former self, to me Gen 5 was the best and last set of Pokemon games, everything after is just mediocre.
Regardless, Q1 2016 is looking amazing for RPG fans in Europe : Bravely Second, Etrian Odyssey 2, Stella Glow, Yokai Watch, Fire Emblem Fates, Legend of Legacy, Final Fantasy Explorers, what a great lineup!
I'm not sure what chance we had of getting Pokemon Art Academy. It's the only item that's listed as "up to 5 per customer", so I'm guessing some schmuck bought like 50 of them to sell, and Nintendo had to introduce a limit after that.
A new game, oh please. I didn't even expect Capcom to acknowledge his anniversary, let alone give us a new game. That's way too much to expect from Capcom.

Re: Nintendo Download: 20th October (Europe)
So glad that we're finally getting Rhythm Paradise. Getting the physical edition (take that NA ) and the Ringside theme.

Re: Rhythm Paradise Megamix Demo Arrives in Europe Today
@BensonUii It's actually £24.99 on the eShop.
So mad that they cut off the Ringside game after the practice session. Was looking forward to that one the most.

Re: Hurrah, Miitomo Is Now Available In The West
Damn, my country isn't available as one of the residence options. Is there a downside to choosing UK instead?

When a list of specific numbers and percentages is given, surely a written article is much better suited no?
Re: Video: Bravely Second Jobs Trailer Features Deadly Desserts And Catmancery
It actually only shows 9, leaving out the Tomahawk (of course), Kaiser and Kitsune classes
Re: Nintendo Download: 7th January (Europe)
Finally the Legend of Legacy demo comes to Europe, looking forward to it.
Re: Bravely Second End Layer Is Coming To Europe In February
@tealicious Ah, that's a shame :/
Regardless, Q1 2016 is looking amazing for RPG fans in Europe : Bravely Second, Etrian Odyssey 2, Stella Glow, Yokai Watch, Fire Emblem Fates, Legend of Legacy, Final Fantasy Explorers, what a great lineup!
Re: Bravely Second End Layer Is Coming To Europe In February
@Jordie Agreed. Odd that they changed the composers for this one.
Re: Nintendo UK's 24 Days Of Christmas Promotion Offers Up Some Festive Discounts
I'm not sure what chance we had of getting Pokemon Art Academy. It's the only item that's listed as "up to 5 per customer", so I'm guessing some schmuck bought like 50 of them to sell, and Nintendo had to introduce a limit after that.
Re: Review: The Legend of Legacy (3DS)
@LztheQuack It comes out in February
Re: Rumour: The eShop is Opening Up in More European Countries Soon
Will this mean we can finally use streetpass without changing our region to UK?
Re: Review: Stella Glow (3DS)
What a glowing review!

I'll see myself out....
Re: Feature: What We Expect from Nintendo Direct - 12th November
I can't believe nobody has mentioned Pikmin 4, especially since Miyamoto confirmed it was almost complete a few months ago
Re: Review: Rodea the Sky Soldier (Wii U)
Hearing good things about the Wii version. Might keep that and sell the WiiU version separately. I'll play both and see I guess.
Re: Electronic Super Joy Will Aim to Make Wii U Owners Happy on 5th November
Adore this game on PC, not sure if I'd buy it again on WiiU. But those who don't have it should definitely give it a go.
Re: Review: Chibi-Robo!: Zip Lash (3DS)
Had a feeling this would be mediocre, glad I didn't pre-order
Re: Reminder: Club Nintendo Closes in Europe on 30th September
Is the stars catalog working for anyone? Nothing shows up on my page, I need to spend my last 6000 stars :x
Re: Dragon Quest VIII and 3DS Overtaken by Metal Gear Solid V and PS4 in Japan
To be fair, Dragon Quest sold about 600,000 in it's first week.

@JaxonH I assumed his comment was verging on the animal rights movement, my bad xD

@opeter I genuinely hope you're joking
Re: From Soy Sauce Hopes to Bring Touhou Super Smash Battles to Wii U
Hey, if Meme Run got released, I don't see how any other game could find problems bypassing the apparently non-existent QA of Nintendo.
Re: The 3DS Proves to Be a Popular Music Player in Japan
Nah, the quality is fine, the volume's the issue for me. It's so quiet :/
I've probably clocked in over 300 hours on the 3DS sound app, mainly because you can change the pitch of your songs, it's a really nifty feature
Edit : Just checked my activity log, it's actually 431 hours xp

Re: Aqua Blue 3DS Discontinuation Only Affects Japan
I might buy one soon and leave it sealed. The price for a sealed one will soar one it gets discontinued.
