Wait, that thing about the demo being for platinum members only is real? I thought it was just someone in this thread making a joke. What the gently caress, Nintendo :psyduck:

Its a week-long exclusive period before the demo is out for everyone next week.

I forgot about Mega Man and Bass! I hope that if we get it its the SNES version though...I had a great time with an english patched ROM of it. The GBA version is just so tiny...


Lousigod, I've always been p.cool with you...My housemate and my wife have claims on 2 of my codes, but you can have my 3rd.

Well hey thanks, hopefully I'm sent one too but it sounds like they're random. What makes you think you're getting 3 codes?

Every email that goes out has 4 codes, one for you and 3 for friends. You get on the list by having Platinum status last year, which I did (with coins to spare)

Hyrule Warriors will have a "Challenge Mode" that comes with a patch shortly after release.

Edit: Challenge mode is a series of goals in succession. His current goal is kill 500 enemies in 15 minutes.

Edit2: It's 5 minutes, not 15.

Yeah, 500 enemies in 15 minutes would be a joke for a Musou game unless this is a really terrible one. Hell, 5 minutes is also not even remotely a challenge.

I think there are a bunch of people who can create trailing images. I know some who could do this as if they were just going out for a stroll.
The game looks so drat smooth, this looks like it runs even better than the 360 version of the first game.

So you ordered on Monday, paid for overnight shipping and it's now going to be Friday and still not there? Yea I would definitely call and at the very least have them refund your shipping, Nintendo customer service is pretty good for the most part so maybe they will do something extra on top.

I called, the lady I talked to was pretty cool about it. She said processing orders takes some time, but that long was pretty unusual. She offered to refund my shipping costs, which is cool of them.

Did anyone actually get their codes for the Smash demo yet?

I love this hype. I have no intention of buying Smash for 3DS, middling-at-best intention of buying it for Wii U, yet here I am F5'ing my email while watching a quartet of dorks play a video game live.

edit: according to a number of Nintendo-working uncles, if you meet all three requirements (platinum as of "last year," registered a 3DS to your Club Nintendo account, and have opted in to receive e-mail from Nintendo,) you will get four codes for the unlimited use demo within 48 hours.

So this Fantasy Life thing is a retool of the MMO they were going to make for the original xbox, right? True Fantasy Live Online or whatever? I wanted that game fairly bad at the time.

Megaman 7 sucks, Mega holds his buster out when he charges which looks really stupid. The end boss is unfairly hard. The bosses are dumb and the level design is garbage. The music isn't even good. It is a bad game.

Just one more thing!
To me the biggest problem with Mega Man 7 is that they wanted things to be more cartoonish and detailed, which is a good idea but in order to accomplish that Mega Man now takes up a large part of the screen real estate compared to older games. It makes him feel huge and slow and it just feels less fun than the older games to me for that reason. If they had found a way not to have that problem I would have enjoyed the game more.

The music is great man. Though that's just my opinion, I was personally happy for 4 unique wily castle themes instead of one really boring one per dungeon like MM5 and 6 were guilty of.
Everything else, okay. Last boss is pretty tough considering the rest of the game is really easy.

I'm just glad all the SNES Megaman games are available now (though I'm away from my Wii U right now so I can't download it. :()
