Don't release awesome games here... who needs ya?

Finally broke down and ordered Last Window on the 19th - it arrived today. Super fast shipping on that sucker. Ordered from DVD.CO.UK, if anyone's looking for it.

Anywhoo... can't wait to have some time to sit down and play it.

I have to order overseas to get the games I love
Nintendo, Forget YooooOooOooou

The fact that we asked, begged and waited wasn't enough
Nintendo, Forget You. & Forget NOA too

If I was richer.....

Oh yeah, well we are the only region to get Excitebots: Trick Racing. Sigh, it's not the same though.

I'd take Excitebots over the whole European exclusive Wii library, and the only reason it's close for me is New Play Control Pikmin 2 (which I imported).

I'm still waiting for Captain Rainbow. I guess I could import it, but I can't read Japanese so what would be the point?

We played it at E3 09. I'm not sure reading Japanese would help...

I'm sure in his homeless shelter for cast-off Nintendo hardware he has a Euro/modded Wii somewhere.

That one game looks like Hotel Dusk? Did it have a sequel that I never heard about?

ymeegod · « **Reply #10 on:** March 04, 2011, 10:18:59 PM »

Sigh, I looked it up and Last Window is the sequel to the cult hit Hotel Dusk.

Great, and the US isn't getting it? The DS is regional free right so you wouldn't have to hack the console to play UK games.

Yup - region free and plays like a charm.
Got my copy from DVD.CO.UK and it shipped super-fast.

UB is a spammer?!

UncleBob · « **Reply #13 on:** March 29, 2011, 02:35:08 PM »

Not sure I can blame Nintendo for this one, but I will anyway...

Wheee! Damn shame I have to go to work. Tempted to call in sick.

UncleBob · « **Reply #14 on:** March 30, 2011, 03:23:45 AM »

Okay - watched this tonight.

If you're a fan of the Professor Layton games, GET THIS MOVIE. Well worth the price of admission (To SPAM again, $19.17, shipped from DVD.CO.UK - my new favorite site for importing from the UK).

Unwound Future is still my favorite in the series, but this one is good.

I need to invest in the Professor Layton soundtracks... they're just so expensive though.

KDR_11k · « **Reply #15 on:** March 30, 2011, 02:26:03 PM »

I watched that on TV.

UncleBob · « **Reply #16 on:** May 04, 2011, 01:08:40 AM »

Finally, about two months later, finished playing Last Window. Great game. Another Code R is *okay*, but never really drew me in... in fact, I still haven't finished it.

This was pretty awesome. Some great puzzles, including one I spent what seemed like forever on until I figured it out (and it's something that's been re-used from previous titles... but the way it's used here is pretty awesome).

Can't figure out why NoA didn't release this one here in the states. I picked up Again the other day... looking forward to starting it, but I just don't have the time to sit down and play long-story games like I used to.

Great when your finished sell it to me

Ignore the price shown, when you add it to your cart, it's cheaper.

~$30.50, shipped.

I got the game for 15€ out of a bargain bin, my mother is currently playing it.
