Cheap Deaths = Down on D-Pad.

Is it's manual as verbose as the other manuals (i.e. won't even explain half of the game)?

Smoke39 · « **Reply #653 on:** February 16, 2007, 10:46:57 PM »

It lists the items and explains the chambers a bit. Doesn't mention how the leveling up works.

Oh. My God. I hate when that happens. But everything in this game is cheap.

Thankfully this week we get the challenging, but not cheap, Donkey Kong Country to play.

Hudson put up some info about New Adventure Island on it's website.

Should be coming out Feb 19th. I never got to play this one, but I loved the first one!

Hudson

Oh Adventure Island, what a crazy game. I have 3 for the NES. One of those "borrow forever" type owns.

Hudson needs to get Milon's Secret Castle on there... I'd totally pay $5 for that.

KDR_11k · « **Reply #658 on:** February 17, 2007, 08:15:40 AM »

Aren't they planning to sell a remake of that on the DS?

Caterkiller · « **Reply #659 on:** February 18, 2007, 03:49:37 PM »

How are you guys finding out when games like DKC are coming out?

NWR_pap64 · « **Reply #660 on:** February 18, 2007, 03:52:07 PM »

I was just thinking, I think Nintendo should add a "best sellers/top 10 games" list on its store.

The welcome screen almost looks like a best sellers screen, so they could do that and list the best selling games of the week/month etc.

Would help a lot of people since chances are the best selling games are also some of the best ones.

Also, since its Monday, I'm guessing that Donkey Kong Country might be on today's update. Either that or Adventure Island.

Artimus · « **Reply #661 on:** February 18, 2007, 04:01:02 PM »

The whole store needs a redesign. I hate the shade of gray.

KDR_11k · « **Reply #662 on:** February 18, 2007, 07:43:56 PM »

Isn't it shades of white and light blue? Or depending on your "favourite color"?

I definately agree, the VC needs a better way of organizing games. At the moment it does look a bit "cheap" and thrown together.

KDR_11k · « **Reply #664 on:** February 18, 2007, 09:11:30 PM »

I think it'd be nice if they did something to make more games from the list fit onto the screen (and made the pages load faster!)

D_MaN87 · « **Reply #665 on:** February 19, 2007, 12:36:36 AM »

Nintendo has not updated the VC yet...hmm..

It's still a bit early. Try again in about 2 hours.

Artimus · « **Reply #668 on:** February 19, 2007, 04:17:56 AM »

Really strong week. DKC remains one of my favorite platformers of all time. I never got why some people insist on hating it (Miyamoto included, lmao).

Entroper · « **Reply #669 on:** February 19, 2007, 04:38:56 AM »

All of those titles are available EXCEPT DKC. I just checked the VC.

Caterkiller · « **Reply #670 on:** February 19, 2007, 04:44:42 AM »

Ok good, im not the only one, I just read the bored, got online and no Donkey Kong Country. Once again where are you guys getting the info that certain games are coming out?

Well 31 Flavas posted this link: http://press.nintendo.com/articles.jsp?id=11455

You would think a press release from Nintendo ought to be accurate. Maybe it will be available later today.

Ceric · « **Reply #672 on:** February 19, 2007, 05:04:12 AM »

Nah, they probably realized that that was 4 games and not 3. Which breaks there policy. In fact to keep with the stated policy we really should have a 2 2 3 3 cycle or some variation. (Either Perrin or Reggie said 10 games a month and 3 games a week in the same interview so take which one you want.)

KDR_11k · « **Reply #673 on:** February 19, 2007, 05:05:16 AM »

I wonder if Legend of Kage is any good?

ShyGuy · « **Reply #674 on:** February 19, 2007, 05:13:44 AM »

Oooh Streets. of Rage
