I've never played a Shantae game. I should have bought the Wii U one before the DDP ended.



Seriously though, Shantae is a good game and you should buy it.

Shantae's fine, but it feels like pretty much all Wayforward games, a decent effort that's fun but not really worth going out of your way for.

Nintendo is planning new Wii U and 3DS Metroid games but they're in no state to actually show anything from them, so they must be even less along than Starfox.

I've said it a couple times but I'm like 80% sure these are for 2016, Metroid's 30th anniversary. They wouldn't do nothing for Metroid's 30th, would they? :(

I'm not going to judge you for spending 1400 dollars on digital games over the course of two years, but I would certainly recommend curtailing that spending in the future

Eh, over two years that was about 1% of my income. I'm ok with it. The only digital purchases I regret are probably Scribblenauts, The Cave and 1001 Spikes(which I actually like but doesn't have off screen mode, I don't need to take up the whole living room to play that game)

Keep in mind that club nintendo reward game codes would count towards the DDP, and so did poo poo like the free game that came with Mario Kart 8. So he likely spent less than that.

I got points for my Arkham Origins Free DLC, the MK8 Free Game, the 2013 Club Nitnendo Platinum Reward (Game and Wario), and all the free VC titles that I got with Club Nintendo Coins.

Still only accounts for like... $115 though.

So is DDP still good until April 2015? It says this on the main page. Not sure if it means we can only exchange points for code, and then an additional deadline for redeeming codes.

Ended the 31st, redeem games for codes by April, codes expire in June.

You can't earn points any more. The points you've already earned can be used to get codes until April, presumably so that people who don't pay attention still get 3 more months to stumble on it and find any codes they might have earned. After that point if you haven't activated your codes it's too late.

For everyone in this thread who's been activating and using codes all along, the promotion's over and you can go ahead and forget about it.

From the DDP page I got open now:

e: I guess the Euro console came out three months later. or a couple weeks.
ee: Actually is that saying you can only click the 'turn into a card' button till April, but purchases counting towards points is already gone? That's confusing.

Once I add the code to my eshop credit, there's no deadline on when I need to use that money, right? I've got ten dollars in eshop credit and am tempted to get shovel knight,but my backlog has already gotten ridiculous.

And I finally took everyone's suggestion and bought 3d world. Only played the first few levels but my lord, that is a pretty game.

Yeah, once it's in your eshop wallet, it's permanent up until Nintendo goes out of business.

Despite owning the cart, I bought Mother 2 on the VC. It's just easier than setting up my SNES just for that game. Bought it on tuesday, beat it earlier today. drat I love that game :3:.
