I wonder if they give you the gears up front or do you have to earn them completing challenges like in the first game. Also what about Callie and Marie.
Nope, not tempted. It would be better if they didn't have games that were released at least 3 year ago. At this point most people already own and beat those games. I would of got the Pikmin dlcs but I live in NA (sitting on 100 expiring gold coins).
I'm still not ready to jump on the repeal MyNintendo (make ClubN great again) bandwagon, but there is so much they can do to make it better. Like more "free" dlcs and games when you use gold coins and selections from 2016 at least.
I for one am very Eggcited for this event (who can resist egg puns). Ever since the Thanksgiving event last year, I been preparing and hoping this will make a comeback someday.
With 20 Lucky Eggs, 14 Egg incubators (most saved from that incubator daily giveaway), and a whole lot of Pokémon to evolve, I may reach lvl35 months sooner than expected.
Looks interesting but I'm still planning to get the neon color joy-con when the local 4 player time comes, and to match colors with neon ones that came included with the switch.
I could use the battery pack grip to make holding the joy con easier separated when I play games like BotW, but it's not enough incentive for me to buy since I only run out of power in handheld mode
Part of me want to use my 100 gold coins expiring this month for Fire Emblem Fates: Birthright since I been procrastinating on getting it for over an year. But with Fire Emblem Echoes coming out next month, my interest is being swayed for the newer game.
Wish gold coins can be more useful towards the dlcs like with the Mario Kart 8 pack 2. At least it should be more useful than platinum coins since they are more valuable and still expires.
5 million is still pretty good, especially given the unfriendly weather around fall and winter. Also people general interest in certain things tend to fade after a while. Even if they release Gen 2 & 3 Pokemon last year, there would still be a drop since new games will come out and distract them from this one.
I still play daily mainly for the goal of reaching lvl 40 or at least 36 (currently 33). A goal that would take another year or two to reach.
I would love to get an bunny Camilla, not because of the bunny outfit (still a bonus) but because she the only flying unit I current know with range attacks. Makes for a more diverse team setup.
Edit: rereading my original comment I just had to change "pull" to "get". Made the post more creepy than it should be
@BAN lol. Funny part is I made a similar joke when I found out about it, only that the note 7 she wanted prior would of made a big blast on impact instead.
My friend drop her Samsung Galaxy 6 Edge less than 5 feet on a tile floor accidentally and the back crack, they literally use their switch as a frisbee and the only thing to come out is the kickstand which can be popped back in. Points for durability.
It was nice of them to show that part of the trick that is a gif, is a fake at the end of the video (7:36). There are those that would leave it as is.
This makes sense, I was wondering what was so special to warrant so much orbs and feathers. I only questioned it for like 10 seconds, don't want to look a gift horse in the mouth
Unless I walk into a store and buy it on impulse, I'll pass on the LE and download the game. These days I find collector's editions are only worth it if it have something I'll use more than once, like a carrying case.
"allowing players to seek assistance from spectral visages of Marth, Ike, Roy, Robin, Lucina and the upcoming Corrin amiibo." Happy to hear that Corrin haven't been forgotten.
Seem like the foxconn workers are going to be working more overtime on their 12 hour shifts. The sacrifice they make for the world, especially America will be forgotten.
If it was coming on Switch, I would have bought it within the 3 month. Since it’s not, I’ll just get it when the price drops to less than $13 on Steam, like I did with the Stick of Truth.
I have yet to scan in my wolf link, maybe I'll give it a try when I fight that Minotaur (forgot name atm).
Edit: just scanned it 13 hearts, though it would be more. Now I'm jealous of the people who got 20 hearts without playing Twilight Princess (allegedly).
Good guide. I really love how they don't limit you how many amiibo you can scan in per day. Besides the 10 LoZ themed amiibo, I can use the rest of my collection in one day and be useful. I wouldn't do that of course since scanning 75+ amiibo would be a cheat at that point.
Nice guide, can't wait until you guys cover the amiibo guide. Was able to get Sheik’s Mask from scanning Sheik, not on the first try though. Was a interesting surprise.
I been looking for a new rhythm game, so I'll give VOEZ a shot. Also Bomberman 64 since it my favorite Bomberman game and I haven't completed it back on the N64
I only read up the section on where it talk about what it does. I like the location/requirement to be part of the mystery. I know I already got a side quest from the lady near one of the horse stables asking to see the hero with the legendary sword, so that was my clue to find it and to a lesser point, the existence.
That is good to here. Interested to see how sales will continue when April 28th hits.
While I won’t deny Christmas is a good time for sales since it gives reason to spend, people tend to forget that late February is the time taxpayers (NA) start getting their refunds back. I know I used part of mines to pay for it.
Granted I know there are those that owe money, but chances are they are in a better financial state in general.
One of them must be the characters hack. Pretty much when you battling in the Arena, you can see some people using characters that is impossible to get without cheating like a level 40+10 Alfonse or like Srabbit said Takumi 40+10, sometimes more than one.
I know it's only natural for a game to be hacked by people, it's one of the reason why games like this have to be "always" online. I just hate it when it ruins other people's fun and the user of the hack justifies their actions like the creators of the game is the bad guy.
Got my Neon Switch around noon today (besybuy.com). Even with all the info and videos prior, I was still surprised how small the system and joy-con is. It feels weird but I'm slowly getting used to it.
I haven't played any of my games yet since I promised my girlfriend I wouldn't without her, so I just been navigating through the settings. I'm two hours away from breaking that promise
"We're trying to express that 'Switch' tactic so people see that it takes two people to get it done."
I laugh harder than I should've at this.
Yep that's one of the thing I love about New York, the passion. If I didn't pre order my Switch online (best buy) I would be on line for the wait as well. Granted if it's anything like with the Wii U launch, I'll join the long line 5 hours before midnight and get it close to 3am.
I’m just remembering with the Wii U, how people were saying that Nintendo shouldn’t include Nintendoland with the system because it adds to the cost of the system. This looks like a reverse scenario with the same buzzed reaction.
There is no winning with some, especially on the web.
I'm on the fence getting it. It's great to show off and play with my very casual level family and friends on a equal playing ground with the pick up and play (only one with gaming skills). It's just the $50 cost is holding me back a bit with the depth and replayability.
Ever since the Pokemon Bank update (+1,100 BP saved), I lost incentive play the battle tree. This will be a nice way to get back in the swing of the game since I mostly play to check in on the Poke Pelago currently.
Kind of weird that NL didn't report the results for the last global mission like they did for the other 2, especially since that was the first successful one.
This is finally time for me to get Shovel Knight. Even though I have the amiibo for almost a year, I've been holding out for when I have more time, a sale, and/or port on switch (that was later plan).
Seeing as I can get it now for $10 vs $25/$35 a week later, my choice become clear.
Well can't say I was looking forward to playing past gen games day one on a next gen console. More eager to play next gen games.
Happy about the shared wallet though, even if it was to be expected. I remembered being bummed about the Wii points not converting to the eshop with the Wii U.
Got my username set since this morning in 1-2-done (not hard to guess what name it is). I was wondering why this wasn't up sooner but it has been a busy news day for NL.
The way I see it is if you haven't bought a Wii U prior to Nintendo switch March announcement, you wouldn't buy it now. Why buy a current-gen when the next-gen it's just around the corner.
As for the NES Mini, Nostalgia is a hell of a drug, a drug that plagues the US (make gaming great again).
Anyways that's the game I'll download as soon as it drops. Kind of eager to use download play (or full play if good enough for them) to play with my 2 friends.
Kind of relieved that the worldwide launch celebration have been extended. After beating the story (normal), I mainly been grinding the Training Tower, knowing that the half stamina will soon end. Guess now I can focus on getting orbs.
Awesome news. I been playing solid since they fix the server issues they had over the summer. Caught 11,325 Pokémon since then. Now we get this huge update vs just the 2nd Gen Pokémon. Wonder how the Dynamics of the gyms will change.
@AlexSora89 In that case, both of you would have to be connected to the Internet, even if you're in the same room since the 3ds could only connect through either local connection or wifi Internet at one time.
@AlexSora89 With download play all player have to be in the same room. The one with the game host from the download play option by talking to the match master and the other 2 join from the download play app (3ds home menu).
If 2 people have the game and one don't, the one with the game (non host) can go to the match master and select join from the download play option.
Tbh this was one of the games I played with my friend to convince her to buy a New 3ds during black friday (was using my old 3ds xl). Then again she's not much of a gamer and she like to play co-op with friends, more so locally. I doubt this would sway him but worth a shot
Btw everybody have to have the same system update to play together. Learned that the troublesome way.
Seeing as I only have 1,455 feathers, I can really use the extra boost.
Only have 1 five star (Takumi). Even though I wish there was an easier way to unlock potentials for 4 to 5 stars, I can understand that it's not there to overshadow the orb summoning which is the main draw for powerful characters.
@AlexSora89 Sorry for the late reply, was taking a break from the web out of state.
From what I can remember you can talk to the match master after you have one friend joined online to recruit an random. Edit: Ok I double check it's in the game manual as well.
If I wasn't region locked to NA, I would join in to help. Lately I been playing locally with the download play.

Re: Nintendo Download: 27th April (North America)
Nothing for me this week.
I would get MK8D but maybe when they have a sale on it or more likely as a discount (gold coin) for MyNintendo more than a year from now.
Re: Super Mario Run Version 2.1.0 Is Now Live
I'm happy that they continue to update the game with new contents and features. Makes the $9.99 more worth it for me.
I still play miitomo regularly with friends, so seeing that work with Mario Run makes me hopeful that the Nintendo switch could also work with it.
Re: Japanese eShop Sale Celebrates Kirby's 25 Anniversary
I am hoping Kirby Planet Robobot will have a sale in NA, me and my friend will buy that in the quickness.
NOA tend to leave out the newer game at times and have the 2+ year old one that almost everyone played or own.
Re: Your Classic Splatoon amiibo Will be Supported in Splatoon 2

Re: My Nintendo Gets a Fresh Batch of Rewards
Nope, not tempted. It would be better if they didn't have games that were released at least 3 year ago. At this point most people already own and beat those games. I would of got the Pikmin dlcs but I live in NA (sitting on 100 expiring gold coins).

Re: Celebrate Spring With The Pokémon GO Eggstravaganza Event
I for one am very Eggcited for this event (who can resist egg puns). Ever since the Thanksgiving event last year, I been preparing and hoping this will make a comeback someday.

Re: These Neon Yellow Joy-Con Will Go Perfectly With ARMS
Looks interesting but I'm still planning to get the neon color joy-con when the local 4 player time comes, and to match colors with neon ones that came included with the switch.

Re: Be Quick And Pick Up A NES Classic Mini Or Nintendo Switch At Best Buy Today
