Most likely will go with Star Wars KOTOR. Tried to play years ago, but never got around to finishing it. Now will be a nice chance to get back into it. I think I am in the minority that just could never get into tje GTA games and have tried to get into SMT also but just not my cup of tea either.
Considering I still have to finish Doom 2016 that I got on sale a month or so ago not right now. I will add it to my wishlist and wait for it to go on sale and then possibly consider getting it. Switch is the only option I have for playing it. However ai will not pay full price for a digital copy of it.
Probably shouldn’t buy anything new with still playing Xenoblade Chronicles. Nothing interstate on the list this week so might buy one of the many games on my wish list that are on sale
Was supposed to spend my weekend playing Xenoblade Chronicles. That was until I got an email from UPS saying my Best Buy order was delayed until Monday. So looks like I will dump a little more time into Trials of Mana and maybe some ACNH to start working my island to 4 stars.
@thugpipe I was about to purchase this but just saw your issue. Has it continued to be an issue? Is it something that makes it less enjoyable when playing on a Switch Lite? I ask because that is what I will primarily be playing it on.
I voted for I wouldn’t buy a second Switch ion principle. However we were a multi switch family before Animal Crossing came out so that became a non issue. My youngest son and I both already had our own Switch Lites. That left my oldest son and my daughter to have to share an island on our family Switch.
That has actually turned out to be a great thing. My oldest son spends so much time playing with his friends that it has allowed them to build the museum and shop in no time. That makes them both happy as now they can really enjoy focusing on the actual game now.
With my luck I was probably to late to the party when I completed the form earlier. I put in for Steamworld Quest. I have all the others, but have held off on this one because of the price tag. Hopefully they will give it a really good discount so that if I don’t get a code I could still consider getting it.
Animal Crossing like everyone else. Also need to get back into DQ XI and just downloaded Child of Light off my wish list. Also still trying to work through Tokyo Mirage Sessions and a few other eshop games that I have in my backlog
One question that I have (and may have been addressed elsewhere), but what happens to all the games that I already purchased on the eshop. Will I lose them if I switch o the new 3DS or will I be able to retrieve them? Would like to possibly be able to trade my old 3DS in towards the purchase of the new one, but not if I am going to lose games.
Already have Kirby and Super Metroid. Don't care about Brian Age and have Mario Kart 8 preordered so looks like I will pass on any off thee for myself. However I was happy to see Kirby as my son asked me to buy it for him this morning. So decided to give him a nice surprise when he got home from school. I agree with others I kind of hoped that there might be some new rewards or hell even get items back in stock. Mario shirt has been sold out in anything other than small size for almost 2 months.
Will pick up SMB3 for the 3DS. Already have it on the Mario 25th anniversary disk so not getting it on WiiU. Also definitely picking p Golden Sun. I can still remember playing it on my GBA. My add Bit Boy to my wishlist and see what reviews say and possibly pick it up in the future.
Well I was either going to pick this up or Rune Factory 4 depending on how the reviews for this were. With them being all over the place I think I may be going with Rune Factory for now and waiting for a price drop on Yoshi in the future.
I don't know what to think know. I had been on the fence about the game as many others were. I just don't understand how the reviews can be all over the place. I mean it would be one thing if there were consistent 5's, 6's across the board, but there are some sites going with 7, 7,9, 8, even 8.5. Now I have to decide whether to give into nostalgia or possibly look the spend that $40 on another game and maybe wait for a price drop.
Already set to pick up Bravely Default tomorrow. May also need to pick up RCR:DX. Never played the Wiiware or Xbox arcade versions so now this could be my chance
I'll say again what I said when I first heard about a 2DS. As a gamer I laughed at it. As the parent of a 5yr old boy who always wants to play dad's 3DS or his older brothers 3DS I like this option. He was rough with his ds lite and cracked the hinge so. Am hesitent to let him play either 3DS that is in our house. The design puts that worry to rest. Plus as far as only being 2D goes, he could care less. He would just get a thrill from being able to play the 3Ds games. This build isn't about being able to put it in your pocket to and go. This build in Ninty actually thnking strategically and addressing an concerns that parents had about younger kids playing the 3DS. It might not sell like hot cakes, but I can pretty much say that I know of at least one 2DS that will be getting purchased.
The gamer i n me looked at this and said what the hell are you thinking . The parent in me looked at this and went wow what a nice option for me younger son. My younger son tends to be rougher on things then my older son and managed to break the hinge on his ds. This model eliminates that worry. Also since he is only 5 he could care less about the 3d feature. He would be happy with the fact that he would be able to play the 3ds games that hid older brother and I already have. This will be getting serious consideration as a purchase for my son.
If it's true that they were all crushed then I guess it is a good thing that my copy of the game is still safe and sound up in my attic along with my other atari games
Will think about Groove Heaven, but probably wait til the review comes out. Picking up a physical copy of DK 3D tomorrow. May have to pick up a Kirby for my boys to play.
Own the Wii version and I love it. Unfortunately so do my 2 boys so I don't get to play it much. I will definitely be picking htis one up so hopefully I can get around to finishing it since i never seem to get a chance to finish the Wii version.
Might pickup Monstehr Hunter 3 or Lego City for 3DS since my b'day is tomorrow and add that to this list. Am unsure since it would be my first MH game and I am worried it might be a steep learning curve.
Looks like i may finally pick up Liberation Maiden. Have had it on my wish list since it was released. Guess now is the time to pick it up. May have to take another look at Aero Porter
Regardless of what the price is Order Up is a great game. I purchased it on day one and it is a great game. The length of the game and amount of content made it well worth the orginal price tag. At the sale price it is a down right steal. May have to grab Mahjong 3D. I am a casual Mahjong fan, but seem slike a great value at that price.
Almost picked up the original version this past weekend. Kind of gad I held off. Now just need to find the money for it since i spent my money on Castlevania this week.

Re: Image & Form Gives Away 2,000 SteamWorld Games, Codes Now Sent Out To Winners
Sadly it appears that my streak of bad luck continues. I do not appear to be one of the lucky one who got a code for Steamworld Quest.

Re: Image & Form Is Giving Away 1,000 SteamWorld Games To Give Back To The Community
