I remember having to track down a copy of Survival kids on Half,com back in the day when buying stuff online was still a novelty. It's an amazing game and HOLY MOLLY It's an expensive cartridge now!
I am thoroughly disappointed.
-Too many ports
-Graphics on all the ports still look like butt compared to other systems.
-Too expensive
-Paid upgrades for Switch 1 games
-Paid tutorial game that should have been a pack-in
-Requires expensive MicroSD Express cards
-No Mario paint to show off mouse controls
-No DS/Wii U games Despite the fact that game sharing is using the same streaming tech as Wii U(It was in the Developer FAQ article.)
-I have no friends to use gamechat with.
-Didn't even confirm the price in the video.
They only good thing really was the new Donkey Kong game. I guess Kirby Air Riders is kinda of interesting. And the GameCube is nice,Especially seeing Chibi Robo, but I would have like to see Smash Bros Melee,Star Fox adventures and Star Fox Assault.
I'll just be sticking with my huge backlog of of unplayed games until some more interesting exclusives come out and suffer playing Pokemon ZA on Switch 1.
The end of the trailer says that you can opt in to using an online license setting to use the internet to start software. So it looks like the old method will still be an option.
But Since it says you use that 'Instead' you likely have to pick Virtual cards or the old way.
I played for 8 hours yesterday without spending any money and never ran out of things to do or felt like I had to grind to progress. Amazing for a "Free to play" game.
@Hinade The reviews on Amazon say that the campaign is practically broken because of the limits that the newest rule-set puts on Extra Deck monsters that weren't there in the older sets of cards.
It sounds like you would know if that is an exaggeration or not?
"The only people in the universe who have never seen Star Wars are the characters in Star Wars, and that's cause they lived them, it's cause they lived the Star Wars!"
I thought I didn't get one but then it turned out Gmail wasn't checking my MSN e-mail. So I'll send one to B3nd3r and post the other two here. NA codes BTW.
First off,What heavy makeup?I don't see any in the screen shots.No noticeable eyeshadow,and a simple nude looking lip,the dark lashes could be mascara but could just be naturally thick.It does look a bit like there could be some eyeliner but that could also just be the light.
Also so what if she wears a little makeup?A girl can't like to feel pretty just because she seems all tough? That kind of "feminist" crap of telling woman they should feel bad about themselves for doing things they like is just as damaging as anything actively anti-female.
Second, The two piece outfit is far less sexual to me.It's just sportswear.You can walk in any gym and see woman in the same outfit. I've never seen someone jogging down the street in a skin tight catsuit.
This is what make me really want the game. I think for most people who like Warriors games the RPG/Loot elements are what really hooks you into the games. Having three different ways to power up characters has me salivating.
And yeah,the combos are simple,and you do spend most of the games inputing the same buttons over and for you most effective combo.But the combat is simple so you can focus more on the over all battle.
The tactics of which Keeps to capture or enemies to take out first is where the real meat of the gameplay is.(That and grinding. And looking cool.And playing as all your favorite characters(That's what make all the spin off Warriors games better then the main series.))
I'm guessing there will be generic Miis to use online. Just like how you can't use any other customized characters online. I can't imagine them making characters you can't use online at all.
I think it would completely solve the Wii/Wii U problem if they just renamed it Wii Tuu (as in Wii 2) like it should have been named in the first place.
Flower and Journey are two of the best experiences ever made. The art,sound ,emotion and sense of exploration are superb and they still feel like you playing a game,which is something a lot of artsy/emotion driven game miss.
I have an 8GB card so no problem with downloading this but with other games I have on there it'll be pretty full afterwards so I'll be picking up a 32GB card soon. ( I only wish I could do the same for my Vita,CURSE YOU EXPENSIVE SONY MEMORY!!!)
@belmont It's because the Wii U didn't even exist when the 3DS game was made . You can't make a game function with something that you don't even know about.It's really surprising they could get it to work at all.
Oh boy it's Thursday! Time to find out what we can download Tuesday -_-''' Seriously, I think it's time Nintendo just switch to regular Tuesday updates.
Also I finally can't stop myself from buying Mudds !
Until they release some Nintendo Exclusive tables( Which I am confident will happen) I'll probably just stick with the PS3/Vita version because I already own some tables and it has cross-buy.
BLARG!! Why are MH3U and Punchout include in this weeks update when they are not released until next week! I got all exited thinking they had an early release only to have my dreams dashed to pieces.
Just the HarmoKnight Demo for me today. I just wish it was Tuesday already..
I happy to hear both these features are coming. The off-TV play almost makes me rethink buying the 3DS version but I'll buy it anyway just to support the series.
@edhe Actually I think the Online play is free in Japan for Ultimate because Nintendo is running the severs this time.But yeah it would be nice to play with Japan.
@SkywardLink98 If you enjoyed Tri Don't write off MH3U,it has 4 more weapon types,about 3 times as many monsters as Tri,A new companion,New Masks for your companions,tons of new and harder quests, A revamped Mutiplayer system that lets you bring Companions if you want.
It's pretty much a whole new game rather then just an expansion.

Make sure you get the update from the eShop,it's too large for the in game updater to complete so it will fail if you try to get it that way.

Re: Nintendo Download: 21st February 2013 (North America)
