I was able to get on very late last night, but it was super sluggish and I couldn't get some game pages to fully load. Haven't tried today. And then this happens. I know it's a lot to handle and I'm super glad they are so popular right now that servers are crashing but if Pokemon is partly to blame for this, shouldn't they have seen it coming? Cause it's ya know...Pokemon? XD
@linktothepichu Yeah as Ronoh said, it sometimes takes a few minutes. Best luck I've had is at Starbucks since its pretty much mandatory that their WiFi work so people will come and use their laptops there. XD
It'd be nice if he could hack and see if there are any other areas in the game that are locked right now....that train station town is killing me. That train has got to go somewhere!
Yup, just like I thought! They cancelled all those extra charging cradles that were paid for with zero coins. So maybe the sales count is wrong and there are extra cradles, and maybe once the first wave of orders are sorted out then they might but them back up for redemption again?
Oooook. My account shows I'm getting not only my blue cradle but now three extra white cradles are listed in addition to the first white one I didn't want? O_o
Only two of them have coins used next to them though. I have a feeling these "extra cradles" will be fixed as they have zero coins used next to them.
Snagged a blue one! And somehow an order for a white one was placed too? Didn't do that myself though, the site sure was acting wonky though. Called Nintendo and they said they will cancel it and refund my coins. So maybe a lone white one will go back up the site one day. ;p

@TwoSmoove Oh I suppose what does one more handheld matter anyhow? I still got my GB Pocket, GB Color, GBA SP, in addition to the DS Lite and DSi. I could use the cash right now but at the same time having two 3DS might be useful down the line.
@Garios Good point, but I held on to my DS Lite and DSi for that. But then I suppose for the NEXT Pokemon game, it'll be on the 3DS eh? I'm just really starting to pile up the DSs...DSes? What is the plural of DS?
Used this as an excuse to upgrade to the 3DS XL. Got the red one yesterday. Promo pics don't do it justice, it's a great looking handheld! Not sure what to do with my old 3DS now though...

@Wonder_Mask Agreed. It is the thought that counts.
Re: Mega Man Board Game Hits Kickstarter
@Warruz Why not? DMP was able to publish English releases of several Tezuka manga because of Kickstarter. It wouldn't have been possible otherwise.
The game looks nice, but I'll check it out again once it hits retail. Hoping it has some reviews then and a lower MSRP.
