“Instead of spending months and months on these versions, he said, Heart Machine is throwing in the towel.

So, they didn’t keep this promise?? That sucks, if true.
Sharing the island life with my wife was one of my selling points. The choice of a second island for a second player would have been nice, but we wouldn’t have played that way.
I work retail and watching this thing’s popularity suddenly spike has been interesting. We barely sold any until like a month ago, and now there’s a massive shortage.
@kepsux Honestly Kid Icarus Uprising is one of my favorite games on 3DS. Maybe one of my favorite games ever. I found it so fun, charming, and hilarious from start to finish.
I even got really into collecting those useless AR trading cards, haha.
@NinChocolate I think the only proof is that the seller said so.
From a previous NL article: “ He's now ready to cash in this rare hardware and has already turned down an individual from Norway who offered $1.2 million for the system – so there's expected to be "some big money" splashed out at the upcoming auction on 27th February 2020.”
He could have just said any number. If he really turned down that much money, I bet he feels like crap now.

@roboshort IGN‘s got a lot of good staff. I bet this could be pretty cool.
Re: Random: Animal Crossing: New Horizons' Easter Bunny Really Doesn't Like His Job
I was so ready to dislike Zipper, but I’m loving this goofball.

@PanurgeJr
Here’s what I found on that:

Re: Nintendo To Remaster 'Most Of Super Mario’s 35-Year Catalogue' For Switch in 2020, New Report Says
Hooooly crap. Yes, please.
Re: Reminder: All Final Fantasy Games Reduced On Nintendo Switch, Sale Ends Today
@Nitwit13 We need an FF Tactics series collection on Switch. That would rule.
Re: Reminder: All Final Fantasy Games Reduced On Nintendo Switch, Sale Ends Today
Just got the Mana Collection for $20. Solid.
Re: Poll: Has Your Family Bought A Second Switch To Play Animal Crossing: New Horizons 'Properly'?
@johnvboy My thoughts exactly.
Re: Poll: Has Your Family Bought A Second Switch To Play Animal Crossing: New Horizons 'Properly'?
There should be a “no, we like it the way things are.”
My wife and I are very much enjoying our shared island, and I would hate to be on separate islands.
Re: Nintendo Download: 26th March (North America)
Weak week for new games, great week for sales.
I’m hooked on Animal Crossing and an actual new Vita release (Twin Breaker) anyways, so I’m good.
Re: Buying A Nintendo Switch Is Proving To Be Difficult In The US Right Now
The Target I work at is having the hardest time keeping them in stock. It’s wild!
Yesterday we received 10, and 9 of them sold within 30 minutes.
Re: Nintendo Remembers ARMS Exists, Announces Official Online Tournament
I love ARMs. I wish they did more with this game than they did.
Re: Devolver Digital's Pikuniku Is Just 99 Cents On The Switch eShop Right Now
@Pod You just named two of my favorite recent-ish indie titles. Minit and Gato Roboto are both so good!

Re: Guide: 8 Steps To Making Your Gaming Backlog A Thing Of The Past
@JayJ We don’t even know most of 2020’s game releases beyond the Summer yet. It’s a little early to proclaim that there’s nothing else for you.
Re: You Can Now Access Your Nintendo Switch eShop Wish List Online
@shani What browser doesn’t let you access the eShop? I know it works on Safari and Chrome just fine.
Re: Amazon Is Delaying Shipments Of Animal Crossing: New Horizons
Go digital or go to Target. Animal Crossing games are good to always have on hand though, so digital makes a lot of sense.
Re: Guide: 8 Steps To Making Your Gaming Backlog A Thing Of The Past
My backlog is hopelessly large, so I set myself little goals.
Last year’s goal was to beat more games than I purchased. I beat 20 and bought around 15 I think.
This year’s goal is to beat 4 games a month, while maintaining my “buy less games” mantra. On goal so far.
Re: Octopath Traveler Has Sold 2 Million Copies, Game Is 50% Off For A Limited Time
A lot of Square Enix games are on sale currently. I’m thinking about getting that Mana Collection at half off.
Re: Pixel-Art Boss Rush Game Eldest Souls Will Slay On Switch This Summer
Eldest Souls looks a whole lot like Titan Souls, but it doesn’t seem to be the same developer. Kinda weird.
Looks cool though. And I do like Titan Souls a lot, so I’m sure I’ll dig this too.
Re: Development Of New Smash Bros. Ultimate Fighters Could Be Impacted By Coronavirus
@NoTinderLife He’s only 49, but he is frequently sick. So he definitely should be prioritizing his health at the moment.
Re: Random: Fancy This Animal Crossing Water Bottle? That Will Be $10,932.64, Please
It was over $13k last time I checked. Yiiikes
Re: Ring Fit Adventure Is So Popular It Keeps Selling Out
I work retail and watching this thing’s popularity suddenly spike has been interesting. We barely sold any until like a month ago, and now there’s a massive shortage.
Re: Talking Point: What Are You Playing This Weekend? (March 14th)
Death Stranding (almost beat it! I’m loving it) and Murder By Numbers, mostly.
Re: Nintendo Download: 12th March (North America)
Holy crap, La Mulana 2 is finally here!
Re: Super Mario Lego Is A Thing That Is Happening
@tourjeff It’s probably Lego sets, not a game. Maybe both though.
Re: The First Animal Crossing: New Horizons Review Is In
@kepsux Honestly Kid Icarus Uprising is one of my favorite games on 3DS. Maybe one of my favorite games ever. I found it so fun, charming, and hilarious from start to finish.
I even got really into collecting those useless AR trading cards, haha.
Re: The First Animal Crossing: New Horizons Review Is In
@Dezzy 39/40. Almost perfect. Honestly I love FF13, but it takes an inexcusable amount of time to open up and let you explore.
Re: Review: Under Night In-Birth Exe:Late[cl-r] - One Of The Slickest And Most Accessible Fighters Ever Made
@Aerona At least both KH: 358/2 Days and VVVVVV mean something. This title just looks like gibberish to me.
Re: The Mystery Bidder Who Won The Nintendo PlayStation Has Been Revealed
@stevenw45 Or we would have been playing the Nintendo PlayStation 2 instead of GameCube. What a weird world it could have been.

Re: Review: Murder By Numbers - Ace Attorney Meets Picross In This Engaging Detective Adventure
@construx That dialogue “problem” is an intentional design choice used for comedic effect.
Re: Review: Murder By Numbers - Ace Attorney Meets Picross In This Engaging Detective Adventure
@harrystein It’s a visual novel. There’s a lot of story. It’s a very fun story so far too.
Re: Review: Murder By Numbers - Ace Attorney Meets Picross In This Engaging Detective Adventure
As a huge fan of Picross, Phoenix Wright, and good visual novels in general, this is exactly what I needed. I’m loving it so far.
I’m anxiously awaiting difficult puzzles, but I’m sure it’ll get to that point.
Re: Review: Murder By Numbers - Ace Attorney Meets Picross In This Engaging Detective Adventure
@CowCatcher The music is so good that I don’t even notice the lack of voice acting really.
Re: Feature: Best Castlevania Games On Nintendo Consoles
@jobvd This is a good list though!
Re: Prinny 1•2: Exploded and Reloaded Brings Two PSP Disgaea Spin-Offs To Switch This Fall
I don’t like Disgaea, but I LOVE the Prinny spin offs. This news rules.
Re: Nintendo Download: 5th March (North America)
@NotoriousWhiz Yeah, I could definitely use some more weeks of nothing that interests me to keep the ol’ backlog down.
I got Murder By Numbers today, so there’s another ~20 hours added to my backlog, haha.
Virtual Console would be rad though. The Switch could be the ultimate retro console if they just let it happen.
Re: Nintendo Download: 5th March (North America)
@T7Hokage017 It is not.
Re: Nintendo Download: 5th March (North America)
Murder By Numbers, finally! Gonna have to share my Switch with my wife for this one, haha.
Re: Reminder: Today's Your Last Chance To Grab Classic DOOM Games For £1.20 On Switch
I picked up the first two. Can’t beat that price!
Re: ARMS Graphic Novels Still Being Made, But With No Release Date Yet
I want a sequel. I looooove ARMS. Criminally underplayed game.
Re: Nintendo Download: 27th February (North America)
@jongred I just looked at Destructoid’s review, and it sounds great. They gave it a 9/10.
Re: Nintendo Download: 27th February (North America)
@Krambo42 I’m really excited to play Murder By Numbers. Picross with plot sounds really appealing to me.
Re: Shovel Knight Dig Won't Arrive Until 2021, Yacht Club Confirms
The whole presentation was fun looking games that won’t release for awhile. Everything looked great though!
Re: Yacht Club Games Reveals Shovel Knight Pocket Dungeon For Nintendo Switch
This looks awesome. All of these upcoming Yacht Club games are so far away though!
Re: Review: Mega Man Zero/ZX Legacy Collection - A Superb Selection Of Retro Classics
I already have the Zero Collection on DS....but the ZX games and being able to play it on my tv are both VERY tempting.
Re: Talking Point: What Are You Playing This Weekend? (February 22nd)
I kinda took a month off from playing Death Stranding, but this past week I got incredibly hooked on it. I think I'll mostly continue playing that.
Re: Nintendo Download: 20th February (North America)
@speedyboris Check now, it’s up.
Re: Nintendo Download: 20th February (North America)
@super08mario It’s up!
Re: Nintendo Download: 20th February (North America)
@Tandy255 I’d imagine the main draw would be that it’s localized. Not sure if they added anything else though.
