I have no idea what the hell I just read, but it's a good reminder that Mega Man people are weird. In other news, some game called Monster Combine TD is coming to the EU eShop on Jan 15.  From Collavier Corporation, best known for, uh, nothing much really. 4 / £3.20 Saoshyant fucked around with this message at 13:19 on Jan 9, 2015 |

Slur posted:As much as I love Battle Network 2, I still don't see the reason of selling games made for portable systems on a non-portable systems; it seems counter-intuitive, especially at the overwhelming price of $8/game. Even then, players will be missing out on probably the greatest aspect of those games altogether: multiplayer. I cannot tell you how much fun I had playing against my friends in Battle Network 3 when I was younger. Because they are fun, well made games, and the fact that you can't leave the house with them doesn't change that.

I mostly play "portable" games at home anyway. I drive myself to work and MAYBE open up my 3DS on lunch break every now and then, but generally I'm in my room. Been really enjoying Fire Emblem 7.

PAL update (week of January 15):quote:WII U RETAIL DOWNLOADS Sega should be posting the first of the second set of 3D Classics developer interviews soon, so I won't bother going over what's included in 3D Afterburner, but it's a cool game and an excellent port and you need to buy it and all the others so they keep making more. As far as I know, Axelay was originally released for the Wii VC in the US and AU/NZ but skipped Europe for some reason, so it's cool to see you're finally getting it now. Demon's Crest, also cool and good. Tekken Tag 2 is a good port, Adventure Time IDK sucks on every platform, One Piece Unlimited was the good one I think? Noone in the world has ever played those Pacman games. EDIT: warning, Tekken's like 17GB or something. PaletteSwappedNinja fucked around with this message at 10:44 on Jan 12, 2015 |

Angry Birds Star Wars is really 40 Euros/30 Pounds? Because that sounds ridiculously expensive. I mean even Wal-Mart and Toys R Us are showing a 20 dollar price tag for the US.

Yep. There was a conversation a couple months ago about it. It seems wildly overpriced when you realize that the phone/tablet app costs $0.99.

poo poo, what are the odds that One Piece sale will come to the NA store as well? I see a lot of the same sales in both regions, but not always. I don't exactly need more games to play, but that's one I've been waiting on a price drop for. EDIT: Unlimited is the good one, yeah. I'm a fanboy and I won't even buy Romance Dawn.

Think that Tekken sale will hit NA too? I have the game on 360...but I honestly use my Wii U so much more that it'd be worth the re-buy (assuming there's no cut content).

Is there a way to have Nintendo (or someone else, I suppose) e-mail you every time a new game goes on sale, either on the Wii U eShop or 3DS? I do that already with GOG and some other sites, and I check my e-mail every morning as a matter of routine - it would be nice to be able to know regularly what's on offer. Also, as a response to a post I saw from last month, I bought Chronicles of Mystara on Steam about 2 seconds after Capcom brought it back out and I snapped up the Wii U version when it was on special around Christmas. I'm really sad that nobody is playing apparently any version, because that game is very replayable and incredibly fun with a few people. There was a thread and a bit of goon activity right after the PC version came out and we had a grand time, so if anyone is up for it (Wii U or PC), I am too. I'm great to play with because I know most of the secrets and I usually play  , so I hand out all of the buffs and heals... if I like you.

Hey guys, Persona Q is the first RPG I've really played since Chrono Trigger, and I was surprised by how much I liked it. I see all these Atlus games listed on sale at the eShop and I'm wondering if there's an opinion on which of the below I should dive into next? Or even which of the Devil Survivors and Etrian Odysseys is the best?  Thanks for any input!

There are demos for both EO Untold and EO4 in the eShop, and if you want something that plays similarly to Persona Q, that should be the first place you look.

ireladd posted:Hey guys, Out of that list, I'd definitely say Etrian Odyssey 4. Especially since you liked Persona Q. EO4 focuses less on story and characters in favor of customization, but if story and characters is what you liked about PQ then maybe If you're looking for something completely different though, check out Devil Survivor Overclocked it's also really good. Fun hybrid of strategy RPG/traditional JRPG. absolutely anything fucked around with this message at 02:39 on Jan 13, 2015 |

If you're looking for modern RPGs you should probably skip Devil Summoner because its a straight up port of a Sega Saturn game. Its not bad, it just feels really old. After playing Persona Q, SMT4 and EO will both be really familiar to you. SMT4 has the demon collection and fusion stuff and all the spell names will be the same, where EO is all about party composition and mapping dungeons. EO4 is a better game if you don't mind making your own blank slate characters or EOU if you want premade characters and a more traditional JRPG story. Devil Survivor is good too but its more of a strategy RPG with SMT battle mechanics. Also you should find a way to play Persona 4 somehow.

Waffleman_ posted:Why the hell did you play Persona Q without having played Persona 3 and/or 4? Because I'm a bad person who didn't see a number after the title and assumed it would function well enough as a standalone title/story. I was very wrong on that part. But still really enjoyed it once I accepted the backstory wouldn't make sense to me! Thanks for answering so fast, everyone. I'm going to download both EO demos when I get home to try them out. I think I'll likely buy EO4 and then work my way over to SMT4. From what's been described they sound like they'll scratch that same itch PQ did while pushing out my RPG interests further. Also just ordered Persona 4 for PS3 to atone for my ignorance. Thanks!

There's a Nintendo Direct on the way! https://twitter.com/NintendoAmerica/status/554850332719972352 Watch a new #NintendoDirectNA on 1/14 at 6 a.m PT w/ Mr. Iwata & crew, with a focus on spring '15 #3DS & #WiiU games. I've been waiting for this since Christmas, I guess they're going to announce the New 3ds date (which is apparently February 13th?), along with dates for Majora's Mask and Monster Hunter 4?

We're definitely going to get release info on New 3DS, Majora's Mask, and Woolly World. Extra things I am wishing for beyond that: stuff about both Xenoblade games, more platforms appearing on Virtual Console.

Dear Funtendo, Xenoblade 1 HD Wii U for preorders of XBC. Even if XBC is crap (unlikely) that kind of a bonus is worth 60 buckaroonies. Also that fuckin MH4U New 3ds XL better loving come to america.

If you have a good(ish) PC you can play Xenoblade in HD with Dolphin. It even has an HD texture pack to make the UI look not-awful at those resolutions. It looks pretty good.

ireladd posted:Hey guys, I played more of EO Untold than IV. The story and voiced characters helped me along through the game. That being said I have yet to finish an EO game or PQ because I got bored of the mapping at some point. Devil Survivor is an SRPG and probably better for people who played and liked Fire Emblem. There's a lot of endings so it's replayable too. SMTIV is a modern RPG with enemies represented on the map. Soul Hackers is a 90s RPG that does show its age at points. Encounters are random like in EO. Conception II is worth no more than  . It's a Visual Novel with a tacked on generic chosen one story and bland RPG dungeon. The Vita version has better graphical quality anyways.

You all convinced me to buy EO4 and SMT4 together. I know Atlus games go on sale all the time but it's nice knowing that once I finish EO4 I've got another great game waiting for me. After playing Persona Q I can see how mapping the dungeons could get boring/tedious for some, but for me it satisfied an aspect of my completionist tendency, knowing that I definitely didn't miss any corridors. Also was really happy the first time I died and it told me I could save the map I'd already drawn out to that point. Thanks again, everyone. I'm on a path now.
