3DS eSHOP

The Beet Party: Beet Scratch (video) - €0.99 / £0.89

Why did I buy a 3DS again?

Oh hey, those of you who were tricked by Club Nintendo's shaky wording of the whole free games for 3DSxl thing and registered your 3dsxl without clicking on some banner, (Which I did cos I got an XL at launch) should send Nintendo an email about it within the next few days. They promised to send me a late code.

You know that typically we get screwed over with release dates (or releases in general, hi every Atlus game ever, also Petit Computer) a lot more than the US, right? Just because we're getting Mario & Luigi first and got some Tingle game that NA never got doesn't mean you guys have it worse.

We also never got Earthbound. Ever.

PAL update (week of May 1):


Note both the Mario Golf promotions for the month of May: there's a discount on the DLC bundle, and you can get a free copy of the GBC game if you buy the new game from the eShop.

Stick It To The Man is some sort of puzzle/adventure game... I'd never head of it, but it's been out on PC/PS3/Vita for a little while and the reviews are good.

Cave Story+ is the pixel version, not the polygonal 3D version.

Denpa Men 3 will be out next week, and as per the previous two games, you'll be able to transfer your demo data to the full game.

The press release doesn't say anything about CV2, so it's probably the PAL version.

If anyone remembers me from the last(?) version of the thread you'll know how happy I am that Cave Story is FINALLY coming out here (in pixelly form). :3: Is that out on Thursday or Friday?

I would do very very bad things for Nintendo World Cup on 3ds. I absolutely loved that game. Most of those games should come out actually, I loved them all.

Edit: wait poo poo, they almost all are already?

I've passed on a heap of vc games because my drive is full of xenoblade and smash dlc. But I dunno maybe losses like that are made up for by not including a 500gb in there for customers who aren't into that? It's just kind of crippled the console for me, especially when compared to my 3ds!

The 3DS that also requires external storage in the form of an SD card?

True but there are a few differences. SD cards are dirt cheap and I'm swimming in them, the Wiiu needs prope powered external storage and not just cheap thumb drives (which I'm also swimming in).
Could be a regional thing too but a decent hdd here is about as much as a game and I couldn't be arsed to splash out :v:

Yeah that's what I figured their approach was. It'll be interesting to see what they do with the NX because their downloadable stuff since the 3ds has been great.

I wonder, actually if you'll be able to reuse an external drive for NX without having to reformat

So just to be clear cos I heard it before but I'm not sure if its right. You buy a cart or download of one game and then you buy the other two parts from the DLC menu in game for the discount right? Or is it just part 3 that is in the dlc menu?

Also holy crap its finally almost out in Europe!

Both other routes will be purchasable in the in-game DLC menu. Note that you have to play to just past the route split to actually unlock the map location where you can do that, though.

They'll have to pivot to slots and penny pusher things then so.

There are so many things koei could do to make their warrior titles better (level design, ai, interface, grind, loving bullshit dlc) yet after a decade it's clear they are lazy, uninventive, and have lovely programmers

Have you played HW or FEW? If so, were your eyes open? The innovation in Musou games aren't in their main titles any more, but they are really improving with their tie-ins (Not loving Berserk though, that sucked balls)

Ikaruga is coming to the Eshop May 29th, $14.99. I like that they’re going to have a vertical screen mode or otherwise it would have been annoying to play portably.

I've tried to play pinball like that and it's too heavy to balance in your hands vertically. It might be ok to prop on a desk in front of you

I should say that's just one mode, there's a regular version of the game too, though the store entry makes it seem if you want any of the extra features you have to deal with that art, in Flashback, a game remembered primarily for its art

Along the same lines I think 60 quid for Diablo 3 is way too much. But it's been out on ps4 for a while and pc for ages so it'll keep until a sale or whatever.

I also have no idea if it runs ok on Switch yet

I started Undertale. I know I have the option of attacking enemies but why would I do that when I can just threaten the frog and then let it live?

I’m excited to play more of this bizarre game

Exactly.

I really should finish Undertale, I keep ending up in situations were I could play it but with no sound (in work, ahem), and music is such a huge part of the game that end up not playing it.
