Man, I was looking forward to that Pac-Man collection, especially in a portable digital format. Guess I'll hang on to my copy of "Pac-Man & Galaga Dimensions" for 3DS after all. The best thing that could come out of this is that they just release a Wii U version of "Pac-Man Vs." instead. Come on Nintendo, exploit that close working relationship with Namco a bit!!

Do the Pokemon download codes from that North American promotion expire any time soon? The only time limit is for actually registering the 3DS XL system and the qualifying game, right? Wanna make sure before I register and try to sell the code.

Man, SNES ports of Street Fighter games are the silliest thing to get on the VC, unless you really need to justify a custom-modded Wii U arcade stick I guess.

Is there any "official" statement regarding downtime on the Club Nintendo site? I have 3 surveys that expire tomorrow, and I'm wondering if I should keep trying to get them through or just wait til a particular time later today.

I'm interested in that Smash Soundtrack promotion. Is there any deadline for when you have to register the 3DS version of Smash? I'll probably be getting it, but not day one. (http://club2.nintendo.com/smash-promo/, for reference)

Jim Silly-Balls posted:There are so many missed opportunities on the 3ds. Any older fps, basically, older racing games, anything polygon based, can you imagine something like Descent on 3ds? Absolutely. Doom really holds up, and would be amazing with 3D. It even has sprite-based enemies (assuming PC version rather than Doom 64) so I can't imagine it would be too hard from a technical standpoint. Personally I'm also baffled as to why there haven't been more entries in the "3D Classics" line. Like, I got my 3DS relatively late, and just assumed I could buy a 3D version of Super Mario Bros. but nope.

Funny, I had just been thinking about how I have a bunch of 3DS game boxes still sitting at my parents' house, and how I would need to go over and get them the next time I needed Club Nintendo coins for something. Guess it's time to go ahead and register everything now that I have no reason to sit on these!

Does DLC for 3DS titles give you Club Nintendo coins? I'm petty sure Wii U DLC does. Particularly, I'm wondering about the coin rush DLC in NSMB2 and various songs in Theatrhythm Curtain Call. I wasn't in a rush, but I might as well buy stuff a little ahead of schedule if it'll get me some extra coins before the program's dead.

Man, I was going through some of my old DS game cases at my parents' house to see if there were any CN codes I left behind, and it's crazy how much paper they used to stuff in those things. Full game manual, that safety pamphlet, sometimes an ad for other games, Nintendo Power offer, the 3-4 page thing that actually had the CN code on it, and that ridiculous Nintendo Wi-Fi connection booklet that was like 30 pages. Now we either get a single slip of paper or nothing. I can certainly understand getting rid of all that crap... I miss color paper manuals though.

Woohoo, the last round of post-play surveys from my old unregistered games have pushed me over platinum. Now to decide if I want a shirt or a handful of games. Shirt's tempting me because it's a slick, clean design, without some obnoxious "Kick it old school!" text splashed over it (which I'd expect to find on the nearest Hot Topic equivalent). EDIT: I'm looking up coin values here, but it looks like only the registration surveys are being accounted for. Is there anywhere that lists the value for post-play surveys, or is that a fairly standardized thing (like X amount for any retail games, Y coins for VC games, etc)?

Did the 3DS version of Mighty Switch Force 1 get some extra free content after the Wii U version came out? Or was it the other way around? Or did they both get stuff and now they're even? Meanwhile, the Wii U version of 2 was basically a slapdash port of the 3DS version, right?

Oooh, good timing on that Paper Mario announcement. Just beat Mario RPG on SNES, and I had always intended to follow it up with my old CN reward of Paper Mario. I'll gladly upgrade that for $2. Torn on my Plat reward. I've been itching to play Tropical Freeze, but I'd need to buy a hard drive to get that. Then again it's probably in my best interests to do that at some point, since I'm bound to run out of space eventually. Even if I keep avoiding retail downloads, it's only a matter of time before all the patches, eShop titles, and VC games push me to capacity. The alternative is Mario Golf for 3DS, which I've always heard great things about and probably works well as an always-available portable title, but isn't especially urgent on the list of things I wanna play.

I wish Premium Plaza would let you hold more streepasses at the gate. The games are all designed around the 10-Mii limit though, so I suppose it'd be hard to figure that out.

It still strikes me as funny that Nintendo was the first company to release an HDMI-only console. The last company to use cartridges; notoriously behind the times when it comes to online features. Also the first to require (for 5.1 sound) a fancy receiver capable of accepting uncompressed surround audio channels, but I believe that's just because they didn't want to pay the fees for Dolby sound formats.

Augus posted:Link's Awakening is great but it isn't perfect. It has some stupid poo poo in it like having to read text every time you get near a rock without equipping the power bracelet, or having to climb up a mountain again because you made a wrong turn into a hole in the ground that flushes you down to the bottom, or one-way paus in dungeons that force you to take roundabout routes just to get back where you were (the final dungeon kinda sucks). It has a unique atmosphere though that makes the game really memorable

JustJeff88 posted:I'm going to mention this here because I didn't know about it, and maybe some of you don't either. Apparently they did a PC port of the three Castlevania games, Contra and Super contra for the NES onto the PC - I had no idea this existed until late last week. It's still fairly available second-hand, but it's not cheap. I just wanted to mention it in case anyone, like me, didn't know about it and might be interested. Anyway I recall a pamphlet included in TMNT that advertised the Amiga/MS-DOS versions of the Contra/Castlevania games you mentioned, along with Blades of Steel. I have no firsthand experience of them to offer but - thanks for reminding me!
