^^They're gonna drop all the Sega 3D Classics at once and offer 'em as a discounted bundle so we can all get Altered Beast without having to feel like we paid money for Altered Beast.


Is there a list of all the 3D Classics Sega has made so far?

At $2 each I might just buy them all even tho I own them all on Steam and have played them a ton already. I really liked Edge.

US version of Cluclu land? I thought that game was famicom only except for being in animal crossing.

It was an NES launch title.

Clu Clu Land is a pretty fun launch game, though I don't know if it'll be worth $5 to most folks. Urban Champion is like one of the earliest fighting games. It's also not a good game, even back when it was new (I remember when it was new :negative: ).

That being said, I own physical copies of both for my NES, along with pretty much all of the games currently on the Wii U VC, so I wonder why I bother buying VC games in the first place.

Gives you a good reason to replay them!

NOE announced SMB3 but NOA has remained silent.

Of course if they don't release it on the 26th they won't be able to release it in 2013. But they probably know that.

I believe Nintendo can release things on the eshop whenever they want to.

I hope the Trine devs were telling the truth about devs being given full control over pricing their game and sale prices and all that. It kinda defeats the point if Nintendo can step in the way and say "no you can't do that".

Two Tribes are trying to do a sale where the more games of theirs you own, the better the price is. So that does require some kind of technical cooperation from NOA.

How's Gianna Sisters and Runner 2? I'm thinking of buying one of these today and Gianna Sisters looks more interesting to me but I figured I'd get some feedback first.

Gianna Sisters levels are long, slow and dull. It claims to be hard but everything is so slow that it's not. The only difficulty is that you can turn off all checkpoints, but the levels are so long that it's not interesting at all. And it wants you to collect a bunch of crap to unlock later levels, meaning you have to take your time and look around.


I absolutely love Runner 2, but I think you could look at videos of that game to know if you would like it or not. I know a lot of people thought the first game was too hard, but it's a wide variety of difficulty options (I always made it as tough as possible on myself, so I can't really speak for them)

Yeah, I do think a really fun game could be made out of Giana Sisters if levels were built make make you use the powers in more interesting ways.

Instead it's just a lot of slowly floating for a platform to grab 3 more gems out of 500 in the level.

I have this bad feeling in the back of my head that we'll get SMB3 the day NES Remix 2 comes out. Because I wouldn't put it past Nintendo to do that, I've never heard of this Renegade game, but apparently Nintendo thinks its important enough for a simultaneous 3DS/Wii U release.

Renegade was the first beat'em up that wasn't completely flat. Think Double Dragon as opposed to Altered Beast.

Even if Nintendo were to say at E3 "We promise 5 games a week on Virtual Console for the rest of time", I know that it would only last 2 weeks and they'd go back to one every other week immediately.

When you were a kid you read the manual. Kids these days don't. They aren't dumber than you were; they just grew in a world where manuals are irrelevant and their first instinct is to use the Internet instead of realizing the game comes with a manual.

There's still optional hidden puzzles, sorry.

What are some good logic-based puzzle game downloads? I have already played through the Picross E series and all the NIkoli releases, as well as Mario Picross, but I would love more like these. I find that the 3DS is fantastic for the puzzle games.

Tappingo is meh, since it hardly ever has anything difficult, and although I have played through the Layton series other than the xAA one, I am looking for straight puzzle games, or at least minimal story.

Do you have Pushmo????
