Kaepora_Gaebora Posted July 11, 2013 Posted July 11, 2013 Yeah thats an option, my brother kind if wants less hassle I think, just to gift it across to me. Though I guess the game code may be cheaper if history proves correct!
Ike Posted July 11, 2013 Posted July 11, 2013 Yeah, don't think there is a gift option yet, so it's the only way. It isn't that much of an extra hassle, really. Should be £29.99 for the code which I thought GAME would be selling already, they sold the AC ones early/preorders.
khilafah Posted July 11, 2013 Posted July 11, 2013 whats the deal with game download codes on new releases? will they have it up to buy at midnight and is it instant email delivery?
-Dem0- Posted July 11, 2013 Posted July 11, 2013 will they have it up to buy at midnight and is it instant email delivery? They're available early on release day don't know how early to be exact. After buying the game I got my code about a minute later in an email.
Ike Posted July 11, 2013 Posted July 11, 2013 DKCR went up midnight if that's any indication. You also get the code as soon as you complete the purchase as well as in a email.
-Dem0- Posted July 11, 2013 Posted July 11, 2013 You also get the code as soon as you complete the purchase as well as in a email. Doh! That's the 2nd time I forgot that :p You going for a download version on M&L?
Ike Posted July 11, 2013 Posted July 11, 2013 You going for a download version on M&L? Nah, went for physical this time. Although not sure why. Arrived today from Shopto.
-Dem0- Posted July 11, 2013 Posted July 11, 2013 Haha, I think you chose well. Although having said that I still have no reason for deciding on the box.
khilafah Posted July 11, 2013 Posted July 11, 2013 thanks for the updates guys. will look on game website @ midnight. If not up I will go with 3DS eshop.
-Dem0- Posted July 12, 2013 Posted July 12, 2013 So where the hell are the rest of the GBC games?! Not a priority at the moment
flameboy Posted July 12, 2013 Posted July 12, 2013 Not a priority at the moment Insane! Like I've said before down the years and through various house moves I've lost a lot of GBC and GBA carts! It's literally a license to print money if they went whole hog. Virtual Console is certainly not a priority for Nintendo these days!
Dcubed Posted July 12, 2013 Posted July 12, 2013 Shantae GBC is coming to the eShop next Thursday YES YES YES!!! GET HYPE!!!
Grazza Posted July 14, 2013 Posted July 14, 2013 Shantae for Smash? The others wouldn't stand a chance!
Londragon Posted July 15, 2013 Posted July 15, 2013 Really wanted to buy Kokuga the other day, until I found out it's over 13 quid!! Oh dear, will have to wait for a sale on that beauty.
Dcubed Posted July 15, 2013 Posted July 15, 2013 Really wanted to buy Kokuga the other day, until I found out it's over 13 quid!! Oh dear, will have to wait for a sale on that beauty. It's well worth the cash. It was a full price retail game in Japan and it's a really great game! It's much slower paced and methodological than you would expect a twin-stick shooter to be (which this isn't. You drive a tank and spin it round using the L/R buttons - works really well!) and makes for a more tactical experience all round. My only real complaint is that there doesn't seem to be much depth to the scoring system. You get points for every shot landed on an enemy (not just for destroying them), points for clearing out all the enemies in an area and a score multiplier for each card you use - but that's about it. Either way it's great fun though!

Dcubed Posted July 15, 2013 Posted July 15, 2013 I think we all know what game is the winner of this week...
Aneres11 Posted July 15, 2013 Posted July 15, 2013 I need to get on this Shantae action. Not played it yet but always wanted the DS download as I thought it looked brilliant. I'll download the GB game and then get the DS one. Is the GB version a good game then?
Grazza Posted July 16, 2013 Posted July 16, 2013 Is the GB version a good game then? I've not played it, but I'll do a review ASAP. The DSi game is absolutely brilliant and the 3rd is my most-anticipated 3DS title!
Aneres11 Posted July 16, 2013 Posted July 16, 2013 I've not played it, but I'll do a review ASAP. The DSi game is absolutely brilliant and the 3rd is my most-anticipated 3DS title! Yeah the DSi game always looked amazing but I just never got round to it. I'm looking forward to playing through them from the start though! I look forward to your review Grazza! : peace:
