Box of Bunnies posted:A handful of the Sega 3d classics are 55% off in PALand so I picked up Streets of Rage and OutRun and am thinking about Fantasy Zone 2. You should definitely pick up Fantasy Zone 2 since it's one of the most impressive entries in that M2 series. They basically redid the game as if it was an arcade release of the time and not just on Master System.

It's been posted about in a few threads already, but Nintendo have announced that Miiverse is shutting down in November. There are some key knock-on effects, though... http://www.bbc.com/news/technology-41082918 quote:While games will still work after 8 November, some key features will disappear. I wonder will there be a patch released for Tipping Stars, or will they just not give a crap?

No one bought tipping stars. Anyone who did almost certainly isn't playing it right now

I can't imagine it would be a step down from Miiverse, whatever it ends up being.

Yeah, but it probably still leaves Wii U players in the lurch, which sucks considering PS3 and 360 still have fully supported infrastructure.

Even if a more accurate post would have been "more people bought 360s/PS3s than Wii Us" it's an odd comparison to make. The number of console buyers, when purchases of all 3 are in the millions, is a strange metric to use as the criteria for continuing or discontinuing online services.

It has reached end-of-life status in a first-party manner. Surely you understood this and are just being pedantic. Did you think that the 3DS had sprouted legs and was gracefully completing a circuit of a racecourse?

DId Jivjov just get tricked into accidentally criticizing Nintendo for discontinuing Miiverse by leaping to the Wii U's defense when someone said it sold badly?

Did jivjov just get his pedantic poo poo refuted by a Reggie quote? Although of course end-of-life does not actually mean dead, I think you'll find, etc.

Yeah it is sad. What I am curious about is Mario Maker since it's the only thing not getting completely obliterated. They said you can share levels but no longer comment on them? Would the old comments still exist? I've had a moronic idea for a quiz level that I've never botheted making but it needs comments to work

Sudden Javelin posted:Yeah it is sad. Seems like you won't since they're completely shutting down Miiverse and you won't be able to view old comments either. The site mentions that Mario Maker will get an update so it can function without it. I understand why Nintendo is shutting it down but it feels a bit too soon. They really should have extended it's life until the 3DS was as dead as Wii U.

I think it's perfectly reasonable to be entitled to your own emotions. Realtalk: the only part of miiverse's shutdown that I take issue with is Tipping Stars' workshop being uncompleteable now.
