and this is why i wont be buying a wiiU... no customer service.
regretting even buying a 3DS and looks like i wont be getting rid of my wii for a looooong time. regretting spending a single dime on the wii VC... attn: companies, you never want your customers to regret spending their hard earned money on your product. it will and should back fire on you
seriously. only 1 thumbstick on the 3ds and no ID account system???... im sorry big N this is not being a "cool" rebel, its being poor at customer service.. stuck in the 80's are we??
it's not that reviewers give different scores on different opinions, its that in this case IGN and NL are sooo drastically different, it leads to confusion. i had to check again bc i thought i rem IGN giving it a 2... for example, its easy when every review on rotten tomatoes says 20.. bc then most likely it IS a 20... its those 50-60 ratings that generally mean worth watching at least once, or the all 90's that mean must watch.. unless its an artsy flick... then its hype
so here my friends is where my friend math comes to the rescue: in the name of averages- 4.7+8= 12.7 divided by the 2 scores= 6.35
Why why why all these Nes games on the 3ds when there's a huge library of gameboy/color/advance games to release!! Plus maybe a few game gear, tg-16, neo pocket color, and maybe just maybe one day... Virtual boy and lynx
Xd375 not entirely true. Still waiting for ps1 support on vita and last I checked you had to buy both console versions of neo geo games (metal slug for ex)
I went with metroid, but I think a missed opportunity for a rewards program would of been exclusive games similar to ambassadors or at the very least a chance to download a game months before its in the store
Or if it's cards, if they were AR cards that unlocked something in game
normally i try to keep my console games on consoles and portables on portables, but having zelda on the go = very tempting! why why why can't we transfer saves from zelda wii to zelda 3ds!!!!!!!?????? argh!!!! )(YES i know its not like its a long hard game that i havnt beaten hundreds of times, but i still don't want to have to keep up with two separate "quests")
I never had any DS versions so I never got to learn my lesson of waiting for a bigger screen. Maybe I'll get it eventually if I can sell the regular one, but still can't figure out why they never put a second thumb on either model, especially when the wiiU will... You could use it as a second controller!
If they're going to the trouble to release a circle pad adapter for both models, why not just go ahead and doi it right the first time and make a 3ds with it built in?? Sheesh freaking dumb Nintendo...
wish this had gotten a 3 or an 8..it would've made a decision easier. I wasn't going to get it but better review than I thought. part of me thinks if you don't buy enough they wont release anymore! argh!!
finally! ! of course there is still stuff to complain about! why did it take so long? why do they insist on diff schedules for regions?? what is this.. 1985?
speaking of... its 2012, if they want us to buy console games on a portable, then we should expect to have cloud saves or some sort of data transfer! why would anyone want to have two separate zelda games going on!
Also someone mentioned super game boy? That would be cool if they brought the ability to play eshop and 3ds games on a tv via either a connection from 3ds to wii/wiiU or even wireless... You would still need to buy Bo systems so they wouldn't be canabalizing sales of either?
Yes this is probably the best way for any company to rid themselves of the used game market and wouldn't be surprised if this becomes the future
I don't mind buying downloads, but they better be tied to my account and not a console, and be re-downloadable for whatever reason as well as options for expandable storage.
I have no plans for a wiiU if I can't transfer the VC games I have on both wii and 3ds
They do sell these like baseball cards right? Go to a store and buy a pack of cards with cards ranging from Random upgrades, characters, and "dlc" type content? Complete with limited edition 1 of 1 on card cut pieces of classic Nintendo game cartridges and autographs.... Just like in sports cards... Lol
i still love playing this game. but it brings up a concern. i want to buy it for the 3ds, but having already gotten it on the wii VC, i really don't want to have to keep up with TWO separate games going on!! nintendo where is the cloud saves/ cross platform save transfer system that sony uses! its desperately needed if you're going to start offering the same titles on both systems!! even if we have to physically attach the 3ds up to the wii to do it or worse a sd to sd card transfer over a computer, its at least something!

Re: First Impressions: New Super Mario Bros. 2
It does seem to fit wario more and kinda bummer it isnt a new super wario game. He did start on a portable after all!!!
Re: Feature: GameCube - GBA Connectivity and Wii U
wow i didn't know about the pac-man one.. that sounds very cool and a great way to do connectivity!
Re: Nintendo Download: 19th July 2012 (Europe)
it would be very uncool if NA just got the original GB version while everyone else got color!!
actually, in dream world nintendo would release all these gameboy games as color with an option to toggle to their original b&w selves...
and will we ever see virtual boy wario in the 3ds vc shop!! come on nintendo!!

Re: Castlevania: The Adventure
I just noticed the release dates for this game back in 89- same day for us/uk... Nowadays... Not so much... Simpler times indeed
Re: Feature: Wario is Missing?
And yes bring back donkey kong and wario as enemies teamed up with bowser and co!!
@22 how about "New super wario brothers"
Re: Feature: Wario is Missing?
This would've been an awesome way to make a new wario land game!!
Re: Talking Point: 3DS XL - Why Now?
I never had any DS versions so I never got to learn my lesson of waiting for a bigger screen.

Re: Review: Sonic Labyrinth (3DS eShop / Game Gear)
The problem with these eshop games isn't that they aren't focusing on new games, it's that they're focusing on releasing the wrong non-classic games
Re: Europe Gets Rayman Origins 3DS Demo This Week
I've bought it on 360 and vita- deffinately awesome and fun, and the music is crazy!
Re: Nintendo Download: 17th May 2012 (Europe)
Also someone mentioned super game boy? That would be cool if they brought the ability to play eshop and 3ds games on a tv via either a connection from 3ds to wii/wiiU or even wireless... You would still need to buy Bo systems so they wouldn't be canabalizing sales of either?
Re: Nintendo Download: 17th May 2012 (Europe)
Rayman is different from Mario. This game feels more like old school sonic, in that it gets going so fast, timing of jumps is critical to avoid traps.
Re: Kirby's Dream Land 2 Reaches Europe Next Week
Apparently Nintendo thinks Europe is in NA and NA is in Europe??? Because it seems Europe wants all the games NA has, and vice versa...
Simple solution... release them all at the same freakin time!!!
Re: Review: Game & Watch Gallery 2 (3DS eShop)
Wouldn't mind seeing a release of the Zelda watch game and it's modern remake! maybe the smb3 one as well!
Re: Tumblepop Set to Suck on 3DS Virtual Console Soon
How can this be a classics priority over soooo many others!!!
Re: Game & Watch Gallery 2
How about the watch games!!? I remember having Zelda and SMB3!!!

Re: Nintendo Download: 3rd May 2012 (Europe)
Dang it, I did it again....
you can have your vvvvvvvvwhatevvvvvver.... I'd rather get all the VC/eshop classics that Nintendo seems to think the NoA doesn't want...
Re: PEGI Rates Rayman for 3DS Virtual Console
Sigh... Every time I see some exciting news for the eshop, Im soon reminded it's not for the NoA...
Re: 'Majority' of Nintendo Games to be Released Digitally
Yes this is probably the best way for any company to rid themselves of the used game market and wouldn't be surprised if this becomes the future
I don't mind buying downloads, but they better be tied to my account and not a console, and be re-downloadable for whatever reason as well as options for expandable storage.
I have no plans for a wiiU if I can't transfer the VC games I have on both wii and 3ds
Re: VVVVVV Set to Flip Into Europe on 10th May
I'd rather have some wario, kid Icarus and Plenty other gameboy and gear VC titles
Re: Talking Point: Could AR Games Drive eShop Sales?
They do sell these like baseball cards right? Go to a store and buy a pack of cards with cards ranging from Random upgrades, characters, and "dlc" type content?

Re: Talking Point: What New Super Mario Bros. 2 Means for 3DS and Nintendo
Kind of glad this will be out. I wasn't looking forward to any of the other titles on the horizon for the 3ds.
Im still waiting for more portable classics to be released on eshop...
Re: Review: The Legend of Zelda (3DS eShop / NES)
