I have no regrets about upgrading to the N3DS. The faster loading and nfc support made it worthwhile. I do wish there were more exclusive games for it. Hopefully that official Unity support will help.
I'm tempted actually. The physical copy I have isn't in the greatest of shape, and as long as classic controller support will mean gamepad support as well it might be worth picking up
I wound up getting Breath of Fire too during this sale. I know the review was average but it's been on my list of SNES RPGs to try and I figured I might as well get it at a discount. Also picked up OctoDad. I have another couple days to decide if I want to get Elliot's Quest on sale as well now..
I'm going to grab vs excitebike. I have everything else that interests me and the discounts on the physically released games aren't enticing enough to switch to digital.
I'm glad jigglypuff is getting a restock, since that's the only Pokemon based Amiibo I don't have. Will probably end up grabbing the other amiibos too.
It will be interesting to see what unlocks the amiibos will do in star fox.
I will probably get zack and wiki, but it depends what games are part of the warm up to winter sale tomorrow. Unsure about sma4, I might pick it up eventually.
As far as he games go. I have fond memories of playing bayou billy at a friends house and I never got around to playing the other two. So I will probably end up getting all of them.
I will probably pick this up eventually, just going to wait for the update that has hit the other consoles first, plus I want to see what Nintendo related content they're adding to it
I'm surprised they didn't put this one out first actually. I have the physical copy but I would consider getting the eShop version and trade my physical copy in towards a new Wii U game (if nothing else to free up some space on my shelf)
As far as ones I would like to see in the NA eStore, Zack and Wiki, Okami, the RE remakes (since the Wii U didn't get the HD remakes) Warioware: Smooth Moves, Fortune Street, Pikmin 1 & 2 are the ones that come to mind.
I remember playing this at a friends house growing up. I wish this would come to NA (along with the rest of the Zapper based games) so I can take a trip down memory lane.
I may get this down the road. My fiancé enjoys animal crossing and board game style gameplay (Mario Party, Wii U Party, etc). There's always the potential for free DLC down the road too.
I have no problem seeing reviewers rating underwhelming games accordingly. Having said that, I also try and look at multiple reviews before I make a decision on them, since reviews are opinions and a great game for some reviewers could be underwhelming or bad to others. I still plan to get most of the games mentioned in this article eventually, but I think I will wait for either a sale or a price drop...
Here's hoping it was just an early announcement. Considering how Microsoft had been inbracing open source and opening their software on other platforms (MS Office on android or Apple devices for instance) it would make sense to put an open platform game like this on as many platforms ask possible.
I wouldn't be surprised if they expand the Wii eshop titles or HD remakes will be part of this. But eshop exclusives and Japanese localizations would be nice
I would be tempted by this. I enjoyed the force unleashed games on the Wii and considering they did those ports they might do well with their own game...
I've been hoping that capcom would put these on the Wii U VC, if nothing else as a compromise for Nintendo based fans not getting HD remakes...but I'm still hoping for Okami
I'm hoping that it will be the TG-16 version. @OorWullie that link does sound like a fantasy but it would be nice if iOS and Android Fit Meter was real

Re: Quality Of Life Device Not Fit To Be Sold As "A Nintendo Product" At The Moment, Says Kimishima
I was tempted by this actually. Hopefully this will pan out in the future, or maybe morph into a different product.
Re: Jools Watsham Wants to Know if You Want a Dementium III
I think I'll pass. I tried the remastered Dementium and it didn't appeal to me, so it's unlikely the sequels will...
Re: Miitomo to Include Photo Mode and Pre-Registration Will Bring 'Platinum' My Nintendo Point
I will definitely register, on day one if possible...
Re: Oddworld: New 'n' Tasty Has a Confirmed Wii U Release Date
I'm tempted, especially since there will be a discount. Here's hoping the Canadian price will be the same or comparable to the US price

Re: Resident Evil 4: Wii Edition is Shuffling Onto the North American Wii U eShop on 4th February

Re: Reminder: The Current-Gen Mew Special Distribution is Underway
I've picked up mine already. I haven't been playing as much lately but this is probably a good excuse to get back into it.
Re: The North American eShop Winter Warm-Up Sale Concludes With 15 More Discounts

Re: Wii Street U Service Being Discontinued In March, Leaving eShop This Month
It's a neat app but I haven't used it in almost a year, since I gave up on trying to find those stickers.
Re: The North American eShop Winter Warm-Up Sale Concludes With 15 More Discounts
I plan to pick up octodad, and maybe Elliot's quest. The rest I either have or don't find appealing.
Re: UK Pre-Orders Open for Pokkén Tournament Pro Pad and Bundles, But It's Incompatible With Other Games
I've got enough pro controllers that I'm not interested in this.

I'm not going to loose sleep over it.....
Re: Another 17 Games Get North American eShop Discounts in the Winter Warm-Up Sale
I'm going to grab vs excitebike. I have everything else that interests me and the discounts on the physically released games aren't enticing enough to switch to digital.
Re: Nintendo of America Confirms amiibo Support for Star Fox Zero, Details More Releases and Olympian Unlocks
I'm glad jigglypuff is getting a restock, since that's the only Pokemon based Amiibo I don't have. Will probably end up grabbing the other amiibos too.
It will be interesting to see what unlocks the amiibos will do in star fox.
Re: Zack & Wiki and Super Mario Advance 4 Look Set for Nintendo Download Update in North America
I will probably get zack and wiki, but it depends what games are part of the warm up to winter sale tomorrow. Unsure about sma4, I might pick it up eventually.
Re: Gunman Clive HD Collection Has Sold 9000 Copies But Has Still Made A Profit
I double dipped, but I will admit I waited until a sale came along before I did.
Re: Nintendo Download: 21st January (Europe)
Hopefully Mario Kart 64 comes to North America as well this week.
Re: Bigley's Revenge Has Been Removed From the eShop
If it was pulled due to incorrect self rating then it I hope if was due to an error filling out the form rather then an abuse of the system....
Re: Bayonetta 2 to Have a Standalone North American Release on 19th February
I've already got the dual pack but since the physical copies are hard to come buy this is at least something.
Re: 17 Games Get North American eShop Discounts in the Winter Warm-Up Sale
I will probably grab sin and punishment on the Wii U and Mighty Final Fight.
Re: The Princess Daisy Costume is Finally Coming to Super Mario Maker
I am looking forward to this. I enjoy unlocking costumes in Mario Maker....Having said that I wouldn't mind if there was an Amiibo for her...

This wasn't on the top of my VC wish list but I am glad it's coming

I've pre-ordered them. My fiance likes the animal crossing ones and I want Lucas, so we're both happy

Re: Get Ready for Light Gun Action in This Week's North American Nintendo Download Update
@Tasuki that would be me actually
As far as he games go. I have fond memories of playing bayou billy at a friends house and I never got around to playing the other two. So I will probably end up getting all of them.
Re: Nintendo Download: 31st December (Europe)
I keep hoping that NA will be getting the VC releases shortly after but that rarely seems to be the case
Re: Giveaway: Grab Yourself a Free Copy of Cube Life: Island Survival
I would like to give it a try, hopefully I win a copy

I will probably pick this up eventually, just going to wait for the update that has hit the other consoles first, plus I want to see what Nintendo related content they're adding to it
Re: Nintendo Download: 24th December (Europe)
If super Mario rpg comes to NA this week I plan to pick that up.

Re: Microsoft Gets Cute About Possible Rare Replay Release On Wii U
Even though I did jump on the twitter bandwagon this was the response I was expecting. To be honest I would even take these as separate VC titles.
Re: An ESRB Rating of Super Mario Galaxy for Wii U Has Been Spotted
I'm surprised they didn't put this one out first actually. I have the physical copy but I would consider getting the eShop version and trade my physical copy in towards a new Wii U game (if nothing else to free up some space on my shelf)
As far as ones I would like to see in the NA eStore, Zack and Wiki, Okami, the RE remakes (since the Wii U didn't get the HD remakes) Warioware: Smooth Moves, Fortune Street, Pikmin 1 & 2 are the ones that come to mind.
Re: Gone Home is No Longer on its Way to the Wii U eShop
It's to bad there isn't a Wii U version. It's not the end of the world though.
Re: Review: The Adventures of Bayou Billy (Wii U eShop / NES)
I remember playing this at a friends house growing up. I wish this would come to NA (along with the rest of the Zapper based games) so I can take a trip down memory lane.
Re: Pokémon Picross Launches on 3rd December in the West
I will probably wait until some of the reviews come out

Re: Etrian Odyssey Untold: The Millennium Girl is Currently a Bargain in North America
I'm tempted for that price. I will have to try the demo first fbough.

Here's hoping it was just an early announcement. Considering how Microsoft had been inbracing open source and opening their software on other platforms (MS Office on android or Apple devices for instance) it would make sense to put an open platform game like this on as many platforms ask possible.
Re: Minecraft Wii U Edition Has Been Rated By PEGI
If this is an accurate posting for a Wii U version I would be tempted to get it

Guess I know what I should download after work tonight.

Re: Nintendo Marks Back To The Future's 30th By Releasing Wild Gunman On The Virtual Console
