@NerdyBoutKirby My mistake, I understand better now. I didn't get to play the original. I don't have a Switch, but this would look awesome on there I imagine.
Thanks for that. I guess it makes sense, its good they are making the effort for New 3DS as there aren't many exclusives for it. I might check it out in the future, I am new to Kirby and still have Triple Deluxe to try. I know I am a bit late ha
@Bunkerneath Seems crazy to me too, but guess they are going for a younger market for these. 3D effect is great on some games, I never get bored of it.
Shame they aren't doing a bit more with it, still use mine daily. I even bought 3 spare as I have no intention to get rid of them, and the amount of great games for it is crazy!
@RootsGenoa Shame about that. I read it does have 3D effect, but I guess they made some effort compared to a few 3DS games who didn't add 3D. Though I still have to play the others to see what they are like lol.
Its perhaps due to hackers its like this, but ironic as I have to hack my Wii U now to backup saves - the very thing they are trying to stop. If that even works. I also did the same with Wii, but I have never got to the point of pirating or grabbing free games.
Its not such a bad thing, I still have my Wii, and to be honest after owning a couple of Just Dance for Wii U, there isn't that massive a difference aside from graphics and online options. I probably would go for Wii version if it was cheaper. I am not a casual, just sometimes a laugh to dance like an idiot with a bunch of friends lol.
Very sad but guess its to be expected. More reason to pick up some Selects games and others. The only reason I got 3DS was for the 3D and it never was a gimmick for me - maybe on or two games were not brilliantly done. If it wasn't for the 3D I would have stopped at the DS for sure, I wanted something a little bit different and am still not disappointed with it. Shame the latest Layton game is not 3D though.
there are some gems on there, it is sad but kind of predictable. I still have a few Wii Ware games to go through. Bit hard to back up, all I ended up doing was transferring to Wii U, and have a spare to back up / transfer to when that one seems a bit twitchy.
@90sRetroGaming I don't have a Switch yet, but this might tempt me. That and LA Noire coming out too. Shame about no 3D, I have to admit I am a bit of a 3D nut lol.
I can agree with that, seems a little crazy. It usually forces me to spend them on 3DS themes, which I don't mind. But gold coins are annoying when they expire for sure.
I must be the only person who likes the new reward scheme. The only bad thing is the coins for discounts - but a few have been worth doing for games that don't go on sale ever.
@rjejr
Bang on right there, and I agree with the pricing issue between the two.
I have no plans to get a Switch, keep the 3DS games coming, I will still buy them as long as they are bringing them out. Its smart business from Nintendo, keep the masses happy, the Switch has years to go yet anyway. If there is no demand, then there would be no more 3DS games planned. Selfish as I sounds, I am happy - though maybe not my bank account ha
Was going to get this regardless, but definitely getting this!! SOLD!
I am so fricking SICK of people moaning about it being on the 3DS. Get over it! The Switch is doing MORE than okay, its okay to have more than one console you know? And its not as if the 3DS has a half-baked library of games to dip into.
I don't care if its seven years old, its hands down the best handheld I have had. I love the 3D aspect so I am glad they stuck with that in this game. Bring out more 3DS games, I will buy them if they are worth getting - simples. Props to Nintendo!!!
Hi there.
Maybe I am being thick lol. I don't have switch, but apparently you can use Paypal on browser version of eshop? But I went to settings, I can see 'shop menu' setting mentioning Paypal. But you can't edit. I guess you can't buy £20 of credit unless you have Switch?
Thanks to anybody who can help!!!
EDIT: I think only you can buy games with Paypal if you don't have enough credit already, and not add funds on eshop via the browser.
@SanderEvers I think SD card saves would be great that you could transfer, which should have been there on wii u. Guess the hackers spoilt this for the rest of us.
I know it will be great game, I have all the Layton games so far. I just enjoy the 3D effect, its the mean reason I got 3DS when it came out. If the other Layton games on 3DS didn't have it, I probably would have a different attitude. It might be I pick this up at some point, but maybe after a long time and when I have nothing else to play - which might be a long time as I have such a backlog of games to go through :-/
@NicolausCamp Its not strange at all. I have the other Layon 3DS games, the 3D effect is great and I wanted a similar experience. No excuse for them not to add it, some smaller developers add it into their games for the system.

Re: Rumour: Kirby's Extra Epic Yarn Will Apparently Be Exclusive To New Nintendo 3DS
@NerdyBoutKirby
Oh no, so they are not using 3D for Epic Yarn? Real shame as I will have to give it a miss, would have been great if they had added it.
Re: The European My Nintendo Store Is Now Offering A Selection Of Full 3DS Indies For Gold Points
Thanks Ninty, I used coins for Radiohammer and Noitu Love, got the other two.
Re: European Nintendo Online Stores Rebranded As 'My Nintendo' Stores, New Stock Incoming
I am happy with the rewards, but then again I don't have a Switch. Had a few free games for my Wii U / 3DS so far. Thanks Ninty!
Re: Review: WarioWare Gold (3DS)
@Rontanamo_Bay
Its crazy that it has no 3D effect, definitely a no buy for me too - unless its dirt cheap somewhere in the future or something.
Re: Nintendo Announces New 2DS XL Minecraft, Mario Kart 7 And Animal Crossing Consoles For Japan

Re: A New Animal Crossing-Themed 2DS XL Is Coming To Europe Next Month
Only 2DS XL? Good job I got two 3DS XL for spares, seems Ninty has killed them off now.
Re: Review: Dillon's Dead-Heat Breakers (3DS)
no mention of 3D effect like the other 2 games have?

Re: The Virtual Console Isn't Coming To Switch, Nintendo Confirms

Re: Grezzo Is Handling The Luigi’s Mansion Port For 3DS
stoked for this, and they are adding 3D effect so props to Grezzo for that! I don't get the hate, loads of people are enjoying 3DS still, get over it.
Re: Kimishima Says Nintendo Has Plans For The 3DS In 2019 And Beyond
can we have games using the 3D effect then? Maybe some more New 3DS stock as in UK can't seem to get hold of any.
Re: GameCube Classic Luigi's Mansion Rises From The Grave On 3DS This Year
Good news for 3DS owners! Recently re-bought Dark Mansion so this will be an insta buy for me!
Re: Soapbox: My Nintendo's Updated Rewards Scheme Is Anything But Rewarding
As a 3DS and Wii U owner, its been okay for me. I can see why Switch owners might not like it so much.
Re: Netflix Gets An Update, But Not On The Console You Were Perhaps Expecting
Still watch Netflix on Wii U, perhaps just security stuff update - oh well
Re: Kimishima Talks Nintendo’s 3DS Strategy Going Forward

Wow, glad they haven't forgot about us Wii U owners, will update later. Hope they added Wii Remote support
Re: Review: Apollo Justice: Ace Attorney (3DS eShop)
@RootsGenoa Right, I will definitely try one now I finished a few games lately. Thanks for the recommendation
Re: Review: Apollo Justice: Ace Attorney (3DS eShop)
@RootsGenoa Shame about that. I read it does have 3D effect, but I guess they made some effort compared to a few 3DS games who didn't add 3D. Though I still have to play the others to see what they are like lol.

strange way of releasing them. Will stick to my Wii U boxset

Re: Review: Xenoblade Chronicles 2 (Switch)
I wasn't going to get a Switch. Maybe I was wrong, am not sure.........lol
Xenoblade was one of my favourites on Wii, this looks amazing too.
Re: Reggie on Backing Up Your Saves with the Switch

Re: More UK Gamers Bought The Wii Version Of Just Dance 2018 Than Switch, Xbox One Or Wii U

I probably would go for Wii version if it was cheaper. I am not a casual, just sometimes a laugh to dance like an idiot with a bunch of friends lol.

Re: Talking Point: An Era Ends As Nintendo Continues to Ignore 3D on the 3DS
Very sad but guess its to be expected. More reason to pick up some Selects games and others.

Re: Three More 3DS Games Are Joining the European Nintendo Selects Range
@Jumpman I am tempted to rebuy it, should have kept it. The sweet spot thing with 3D was an issue, but definitely would be sorted on a New 3DS.
Re: Nintendo Has Announced the End of the Wii Shop Channel

Re: Video: Here's How The Switch And New 3DS Versions Of Fire Emblem Warriors Compare To Each Other
@90sRetroGaming
No 3D . Thanks for that, I was going to get for 3DS if it was. I don't have a Switch but would be best on there I think then.
