Well, I didn't change anything, but all my games are suddenly working again! I guess complaining on the internet really does help!

Sooo I'm having a bit of an issue today... I can't connect to the internet in my 3DS or Wii U games (tried Pokémon Shuffle, Pokémon Rumble World, Badge Arcade, both Smash Bros. versions and Splatoon). But it shouldn't be a problem with my internet connection considering it works fine on everything else including accessing Miiverse, the internet browser and the eShop... And it's been like this for over 8 hours so I assume it's not a maintenance thing. I've tried deleting the connection and connecting again in the system settings, restarting my router, performing a system update on my consoles... and nothing's helping. I'm not getting any error messages beyond the "couldn't connect to the server, try again later" kind, either, and none of my friends are having problems... I just don't know what to do! I don't suppose anyone here has ever experienced this before...?

In the middle of Chapter 4 here, taking my time (~145 hours of playtime now, I think*) and loving every second of it. I think this might be my new favourite game of all time! (* Quite a bit of this time was definitely spent just obsessing over how adorable Tiki is... )

Anyone else having problems logging on with a Trainer Club account? I know there were some problems before but I thought they had been fixed.... I am 100% certain I've typed both the username and password correctly, but it says it's incorrect and after a couple of more tries to be sure (including trying to log in on pokemon.com as well to make sure it wasn't just a problem with the app) I'm locked out for 15 minutes. Great... Being locked out from my account on pokemon.com is pretty bad as well considering I need to get on there to get a TCG tournament sanctioned soon. :/ (Hopefully it's just because of the server issues, but it's a bit disconcerting when it says my password or username were incorrect instead of just giving me an error message...)

I also reached the end of the prologue last night, and I've loved literally every single second I've played so far! (Though I guess that was to be expected considering I'm prooobably one of the world's biggest fans of this game - even before I started playing, haha...) Even just pressing Debut (love it) on the main menu had me shaking with excitement... I don't think I've ever felt that way about starting a game before. Also, the launch trailer is awesome.

Yep, it's just four days away! I almost can't believe it's so close... And I just realized I forgot to post the E3 videos, so here you go: SPOILER WARNING as usual, of course - especially for the second video. EDIT: I even forgot to post the character trailers?! Let's fix that... Lucky you - the wait has been killing me... I've been counting the days for sooo many weeks ahahahaaaa...

I'm pretty sure this is the full list of games Nintendo showed, in the order they showed them. YouTube Live at E3 show: - Jotun: Valhalla Edition - Runbow Pocket - Axiom Verge - Severed Treehouse Day 1: - Pokémon Sun/Moon - The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild Treehouse Day 2: - Pokémon GO - Ever Oasis - BoxBoxBoy - Mario Party Star Rush - YO-KAI WATCH 2: Fleshy Souls/Bony Spirits - Monster Hunter Generations - Dragon Quest VII: Fragments of the Forgotten Past - Tokyo Mirage Sessions ♯FE - Paper Mario: Color Splash - Rhythm Paradise Megamix (And some more Zelda on Day 2 as well, of course.) I thought the Treehouse streams were much better than last year, actually. This year felt more organized and didn't have as many games shown multiple times, so every segment was interesting to watch.

I've played and loved all of the Paper Mario games, but Sticker Star is by far my favourite (so far).

Color Splash looks like everything I ever wanted from a Paper Mario game. It's so gorgeous and hilarious and even has PAPER KOOPALINGS!! <3 (Well, the Paper Koopalings alone basically guarantee that it'll be my favourite in the series... )

Yessss, it's Zygarde time! I guess the "secret" that the starters + Iwanko are hiding might be Synchro-related, then. Cause if we're getting Zygarde, surely Ash-Greninja must be in there as well... right?

...LEGO CITY UNDERCOVER?! (Please give me a Frank Honey minifig...) I'm so in. Totally aiming for a complete collection this year, too.

Kinda strange to add a "#MK8" to a tweet that has nothing to do with Mario Kart 8, then... But yeah, it could easily be nothing. I'd love to see more DLC, though. Callie and Marie would definitely be a perfect fit for the game, and given their popularity it would be an extremely easy way to boost Mario Kart sales as well. Plus, it would give me another chance to get Bowser Jr...

No matter what they originally had planned, I think we can all agree that they should've been faster to confirm that they had more to show. Could have saved us all from a lot of the doom and gloom the "Zelda-only" E3 announcement brought...

That's wonderful! Can we get Feathers McGraw next? He already has a cameo in Pokémon Sun/Moon, after all...

More TMS#FE footage on my birthday? What a wonderful present! Hoping for some Paper Mario too, and maybe some other surprises.

Another trailer, another bump.. This time we have Europe's story trailer, which thankfully doesn't have quite as major spoilers as NoA's "First Beats" video. We've almost only got three weeks to go now...! (I also edited in the Feel music video that Nintendo Germany uploaded last week in the previous post, for those that didn't catch it.) EDIT: And as we hit the three-week mark, here's the second episode of DJ MasterSeal's Now in Session! EDIT2: And Nintendo Germany posted another video, too! The music video for Kiria's "Reincarnation"!

Yesss, that's fantastic news! Guess I have to buy it now!

I'm absolutely terrible at MH games, but I'm definitely getting the amiibo if they reach Europe.

NoA has started a series of in-universe (well, kinda) trailers/starter's guide videos. Here's the first episode of Now in Session: I'm glad to see that the game will be getting quite a lot more marketing than I expected. Also, the wonderful intro video from the game was uploaded to Nintendo Germany's youtube channel: Just five weeks to go! Anyone else as hyped as me?! If that's even possible, that is... EDIT: Another video from Nintendo Germany, this time the music video for Tsubasa's "Feel"!

Hopefully Europe will get DMW2 this year, too. The first DMW is my favourite 3DS game, but having to wait six months after the US got it was torture...

Oh, absolutely. ~$10 worth of DLC, plus the CD, lyric cards, stickers and the 90-100 page artbook (assuming it's like the one Japan got - probably minus a few pages that were dedicated to Japan-only products) is definitely more than worth the £15 extra.

The description of the American Special Edition: "When the Wii U game launches on June 24, it will also launch with a one-of-a-kind special edition available at GameStop and Amazon.com. The special edition contains the Tokyo Mirage Sessions #FE game, a 5x8 color artbook, a six-song soundtrack CD featuring some of the game’s awesome music, six song cards and a sticker sheet at a suggested retail price of $79.99. The bundle will also contain DLC codes for all five sets of planned downloadable content. Releasing at launch, the five DLC packs contain additional quests or costumes, and will cost $1.99 each if purchased separately outside of the special edition." Considering the other contents are identical to our Fortissimo Edition, I'd assume it's the same for the DLC.

In the plane scene, his 3DS has several dust specks that are absent in the car scene, clearly suggesting that the 3DS in the car scene is brand new. He must obviously have bought another 3DS after arriving, specifically because of the region lock!

Definitely considering buying Minecraft again now. Is Europe getting a retail release?

Sure, it's all on the official Nintendo websites: - Norway - Sweden - Denmark - Finland
