There's a world-e screenshot in the press kit so I guess so.

Wow, I can't believe OoT is now $20 permanently. I thought it was only going to be a temporary thing. Now I don't have to buy it ASAP! :D

On Super Mario 3D world is Rosalina DLC or an unlockable?

Is AC4 Black Flag? And is it any good on the Wii U?

They even changed the ROM to make it so they could fit all 38 courses at once.

She's unlockable. I think you get her for "beating" the game (World Bowser, which is like beating the standard Mario story portion of the game.)

Nah she's a level or two into the post-game bonus levels. Not far in but you don't get her immediately

AC4 is Black Flag, but I have no idea how the Wii U port is.

It has around the same average on GameRankings and Metacritic as the PS3 and 360 versions (all hover around 87% / 4.5 out of 5 stars), so very good apparently.

Black Flag runs fine and look fine on WiiU. mostly 30fps with a few dips here or there when you do those bar fights for some reason, but it's perfectly playable.

Anyone know if those permanent price drops will be heading to Europe? That's pretty awesome.

I bought all those Mario Advances and SNES N3DS games. I'm a sucker for an introductory deal.

Europe's getting different Wii U Selects in April: NSMBU+Luigi U, DKC Tropical Freeze, Wind Waker HD, Lego City Undercover, Wii Party U.

They already got some discounted 3DS games a few months ago: Ocarina 3D, Starfox 3D, some other stuff.

Great. I need a reason to try Tropical Freeze and £cheap may be it.

I need an external hard drive though so not so cheap.

OoT3D is definitely not discounted - it's still £30 in the UK, instead of the £15.99 that the Select stuff goes for.

I think our esteemed OP got confused between the Zelda games. The one that is part of the select line in Europe is Link Between Worlds, not OOT.

Oops!

Anyway, two bits of news from Two Tribes:

-RIVE will be released in September

-RIVE will be Two Tribes' final game; they'll still exist and will continue licensing ports and such but they're done making new games: http://twotribes.com/message/rive-is-our-final-game/

We got Link Between Worlds, not OoT. Ocarina did go back into production though.

FWIW the Assassin's Creed series is also on sale on PS3/PS4 this week, including Black Flag for $10, and it seems like those are the versions to buy if you have the option

Ebay has a deal that lasts until 7PM Pacific tonight. $20 off any order that's a minimum of $100. So you can put a $50 eshop card in your cart, change it to x2, then apply the code for the $20 savings at checkout, but only if you use PayPal.

http://m.ebay.com/itm/Nintendo-Nintendo-eShop-Prepaid-Card-50-/321932575884?nav=SEARCH

Code is: CMADNESS10

But wait, there's more! You can also make a second order and use code: CMADNESS20

So that's a pretty sure thing that My Nintendo would also release that day, right? I really want to get FE: Fates but I keep thinking I might as well wait 'till I can get reward points out of it.

Yeah, My Nintendo and Miitomo should launch simultaneously.

Remember, you can sign up for a Nintendo Account right now, and if you pre-register for Miitomo before release you'll get some extra platinum points for My Nintendo: https://my.nintendo.com/pre_registrations/miitomo?language=en-US

("pre-registering" is basically just signing up to a mailing list)

Preregistration in My Nintendo only works for people eligible for Miitomo at the moment. It will probably open for lesser nations on launch.

Arc System Works just announced a new visual novel game for 3DS eShop - the title translates to something like "~CHASE~ Cold Case Division" and it's being made by several former members of Cing, the studio that made Hotel Dusk, Another Code/Trace Memory and Last Window, among other games: http://www.arcsystemworks.jp/chase_tooikioku/

lol Just got my card blocked because I tried to buy two things in a row on the eShop and Nintendo's online stuff is all registered in Germany. I wouldn't have had to if it had crazy things like a shopping basket or some way of adding money in between £20 and freaking £50 in one go.
