What are some good logic-based puzzle game downloads? I have already played through the Picross E series and all the NIkoli releases, as well as Mario Picross, but I would love more like these. I find that the 3DS is fantastic for the puzzle games. Tappingo is meh, since it hardly ever has anything difficult, and although I have played through the Layton series other than the xAA one, I am looking for straight puzzle games, or at least minimal story. vvv Yeah, it is decent. I was really annoyed by the 15 tutorial levels that aren't skippable, but it is fun. I don't have Crashmo, yet. Is it more fun?

Crashmo doesn't gently caress around, it's a lot better than Pushmo in that respect. Glow Artisan on DSiWare is one I really liked. Nintendo published a ton of puzzle games on DSiWare and I didn't play most of them, but Snapdots (a version of the old GBA game Guru Logi Champ) is pretty good. Mole Mania might be a bit more action-y than you'd like, but it's a fun VC game in the Sokoban/Adventures of Lolo mould and was made by the same team that made DK94. Tappingo 2 is coming out this week, incidentally. I get the impression it's pretty much just a level pack, though.

If you're lookin' more for a simple, formulaic puzzler, then I may recommend Art of Balance: Touch (although there's a superior version which is supposedly going to be out very soon on the Wii U, if you've got one of those). If you'd like a bit of an adventure-y platformer, Fluidity: Spin Cycle is really nice.

I haven't seen it mentioned here, but I just noticed an announcement on the PAL eShop that the DSiWare title Go! Go! Kokopolo! Harmonious Forest Revenge is being removed from the eShop after today. So if you really want it, now is your last chance.

Despite being more Layton, LvW is still my favorite Ace Attorney since Trials and Tribulations.

Layton x AA is way more of an AA game than a Layton game and I don't think it'd be a good first impression for anyone who hasn't played a Layton game, honestly.

I remember getting Link 'n' Launch via one of those monthly Club Nintendo game rewards and it's really fun. Then again I'll play almost any puzzle game that remotely resembles Pipe Dream.

Glow Artisan as mentioned before is a fantastic game. Snapdots https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7EM8pEQhQkk Less logic based games. Going to link to reviews as there really arent videos that do these titles justice.

Sadly when transferring these titles to a new system you will lose your save data. As a digital only consumer I am dreading that day I trade in my XL for a New 3DS. SD card incompatibility alone is going to be a big issue. Is the wireless pc backup a feature or a step to an actual account system?

Are downloaded games tied to a user account? Like if I get a game on my 3DS and there happens to be a Wii version, do I get both versions? Or are they considered totally different games?

univbee posted:Totally different, you have to buy everything twice, including Virtual Console games. So let's say I've got a regular Wii and a 3DS and I want to play the "best" versions available for every Zelda game possible given those two consoles. What should I get on each? I saw that Zelda 1 and 2, and Oracle of Seasons/Ages are on 3DS, but am I better off getting any of them for the Wii? I've got Ocarina of Time 3D, Phantom Hourglass DS, and A Link Between Worlds 3DS. I played Ocarina on N64, and I played Link to the Past (repeatedly) on SNES, but haven't played any other Zelda games and want to get caught up on what I've been missing. If there's a dedicated Zelda series thread then I didn't see it and I'll totally take my question there.

Typically, AA consists of half courtroom and half investigation. This game is slightly more than half investigation, only it's presented as a Layton game and occasionally there are puzzles. If you think of it that way, it's ALL Ace Attorney!

The only decisions you need to make are Twilight Princess on Gamecube or Wii (Wii), and OoT on N64 or 3DS (3DS). It really doesn't matter what emulator you choose to play the other games in because its gonna be the same wherever.

I didn't mind the motion controls in Skyward Sword, but it was designed around them.RMZXAnarchy posted:You forgot LttP on SNES or GBA (SNES). Also they changed that puzzle in the Ice Palace and made it a non-puzzle, basically. But you do get to keep the shovel.

Why not just wait a month, keep your Wii, and buy a WiiU with the money you saved during said month instead of trading in your Wii? You don't have to get rid of your old nintendo console. And the WiiU isn't just a "upgraded games" machine - it's a legitimate console with great first party games, fairly decent indie support, and pretty graphics. I mean, do what you want, but embrace the hoarder in you and keep your Wii

I can't imagine you'd get much for the Wii anyway, plus you'll probably want to keep the controllers around for the Wii U. I keep a Gamecube with a Game Boy Player hooked up to it around for all my GCN/GBA gaming needs because that's how I roll.

PaletteSwappedNinja posted:Wii U has the best version of Aliens Colonial Marines, by far. I'll see if I can budget for a Wii U, I'm already trying to budget for an Xbox One. Wolfenstein The New Order was fun on my 360, but I really need to play it The Way It Was Meant To Be Played (i.e., without bad loading times and pop-in low-res textures and poo poo). And believe me, I'm not against hanging onto old consoles. I've still got my N64 hooked up to my TV, and I've got an SNES kicking around (but I'm really in favor of phasing the SNES out if I can Virtual Console the games on it that I care about). poo poo, I even have a classic first-edition "white brick" Game Boy that I've kept just to say I have one. The Wii really felt like a legitimate replacement for the Gamecube - since it could play GC games and supported GC controllers, I had no reason to have a Gamecube if I got a Wii. I still have my classic Xbox since there's a ton of games on it that I like, and the Xbox360's backwards compatibility was garbage. I might have to look into what the Wii U has to offer and see if there's anything else that tempts me. Getting a 3DS recently has really reminded me how much I enjoy Nintendo's first-party games, and how the bulk of my best childhood gaming memories were on Nintendo consoles. I love my Xbox and Xbox360, but I think I'll always be a Nintendo kid deep down inside. Xenomrph fucked around with this message at 06:46 on Sep 1, 2014 |

But then how will I play the Master Chief Collection? Honest to god I'm not trying to start a PS4/XBone console war in the Nintendo thread. But a Black Friday sale/bundle is a drat good idea, I can't believe I didn't think of that. Also my sister gave me a 16gb SD card that she had kicking around, so I just went hog-wild in the Nintendo eShop a little bit.

PAL update (week of September 4):quote:WII U eSHOP NOE is gonna be doing different Zelda sales every week in the lead-up to Hyrule Warriors, and you'll also be able to get a discount on the eShop version of Hyrule Warriors at launch if you own digital versions of any other Zelda game. EDIT: here's the full Zelda sale list https://pbs.twimg.com/media/Bwb0654IQAARTDY.jpg:orig Cubemen 2 is notable for the fact that it has cross-platform online multiplayer and level sharing with the PC/iOS versions, but I haven't bothered to even look at it so I don't know if it's actually worth caring about. 3DS dudes, note the sales on Sayonara Umihara Kawase and Code of Princess: neither game has been on sale before in PAL-land, and one of 'em is worth owning! CV3 and Gargoyle's Quest 2 are both great, and Gargoyle's Quest 2 has never been re-released until now, as far as I know. PaletteSwappedNinja fucked around with this message at 09:51 on Sep 1, 2014 |
