Thanks for posting this. It reminded me that I wanted to buy the digital copy of Punch-Out. So I went and did it. I love that I don't have a Wii U and yet I can buy the eshop games anyways.Wait how did you but it if you don't own a Wii U?.
My biggest beef with the Wii Punch-Out is not that it isn't a good game. Its that it felt when I was playing it more like a $20-30 eShop game.Perfect now it's $10 this week and $20 any time after that
It was a brief moment of joy, followed by crushing dissapointment, followed by a salve of "Wait, I loved that game."Great way to boil my paragraph into a single sentence
I had the exact same reaction as James Jones when they Fire Emblem trailer started. I literally jumped off my seat and started dancing only for my jubilation to be muted when the 3DS screen popped up.I had a mixed reaction. I've been hoping that Intelligent Systems would release Advance Wars next so when I saw Fit Emblem it was a major let down. Then I realized I absolutely loved Awakening (the only FE game I've ever played) then I felt better, but I still wish it was AW
Still plays regulation DS games.Awesome that's what I was hoping to hear thanks
Actually, Leo13, it was just a joke. Basically a take on the theme music of Megas XLR. Remember that cartoon?Oh sorry man not only do I not remember that cartoon, I've never heard of it. How old is it? If it's an 80's thing then I was probably too young (born in'85)
They also didn't think it would sell on Wii, but they sold out twice and ended up selling more copies than Japan or EuropeIrony - the game NOA had to partner with someone else to agree to localize is now the sole New 3DS exclusive and thus carries the expectations of a system seller. So are NOA just a bunch of jackasses now eating crow or is this actually a really poor strategy? I mean the game SHOULD sell systems in a perfect world because it is so awesome but there is no accounting for people's tastes. NOA saw it as unsellable, NCL seems to see it as a killer app. I think it really falls in between. It's a truly exceptional game that's complicated enough that it wouldn't have mass appeal.
It's almost as if Japan and America are different markets that want different things, particularly from handhelds.
Yes, and what does America have to sell New 3DS's? That's my point. NCL has provided one exclusive game for the New 3DS launch for all regions and it's one that NOA feels their region didn't even want.
I have Breath of Fire 2 for the Wii virtual console. In my humble opinion it was extremely archaic for a 1994 RPG. The original cannot be more advanced so I would expect high difficulty, frustrating menus/experience gain/progression, unclear game concepts, SLOW battles, LOTS of game over screens, and LOTS of repetition. I did finish BoF2, but will probably never play it again. I love challenges, such as Etrian Odyssey (I have them all, and finished them all except for untold). I would put BoF2 in the same category as Final Fantasy I I I (the DS remake)...too outdated and unbalanced to be any fun.Thanks for the info sounds like something I don't want
For all intents and purposes, New 3DS is going to be treated like a regular 3DS.Zelda IS the color I wanted. I'm still kicking myself for not getting the fire emblem one and the Link Between Worlds ones
And Nintendo is smartly launching with Majora's Mask 3D and Monster Hunter 4. It got that part right so I don't see this being a botched launch by any measure. The absent AC adapter is kind of lame, but I have one. Nintendo solidified my decision for me by not offering the color I wanted.
Then why is every other region getting the game pre-loaded?I don't claim to know everything, but with all the currency fluctuations and the fact the Europe's game are usually more expensive I try not to compare our prices and value to Europe's or Japan's I just compare it to my other options here.
