Posted January 18, 2013 My god. That's too Japanese for me to not buy! *Looking that stuff up in the eShop right now! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted January 19, 2013 I finally beat Saturday of Week 3 on Tokyo Crash Mobs. The final stage was a piece of piss in comparison. Yep, Sunday of Week 3 is the last stage on Story Mode. Beating the game unlocks... The black notebook (which appears to be a tougher Story Mode). And the team option for Challenge Mode. Just over 5 hours playtime on my Activity Log, not too bad. And Challenge Mode will definitely add at least a few more hours, it's pretty addictive. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted January 21, 2013 My favourite eShop game is still Mighty Switch Force, but like I say to everyone, make sure you know what it is before you buy it. You need platforming skills, good reflexes and puzzle-solving skills. It has fantastic graphics and music, and I can't wait for more stuff from WayForward, personally. Yeah going to pick it up watched a few videos about it and loved the look of it. Wayforward are on of those developers that just go out there and create gorgeous looking games that aren't aiming at the mainstream. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Posted January 21, 2013 (edited) "Gunman Clive 3DS has outsold the iOS version" Very interesting read from the Dev himself. http://www.neogaf.com/forum/showthread.php?t=509260 Nice analysis. EDIT: Also NA will be getting Ikachan on 31/01/13 for $4.99. Guxt is supposedly to be released in NA before Q1 comes to a close... However, we've got another more pressing question that needs answering. Edited January 21, 2013 by -Dem0- Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Posted January 21, 2013 "Gunman Clive 3DS has outsold the iOS version" That is a genuinely impressive achievement, and proof gamers still value dedicated handhelds. Glad to see the eShop is prospering! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

However, we've got another more pressing question that needs answering. Yeah Gunman Clive looks pretty decent and the 3DS makes it's graphic style look pretty special. I'm not surprised though to be honest. Ios has so many games that things do get lost amongst the shuffle whilst Gunman Clive is relatively cheap on 3DS compared to a lot of stuff and there is less to buy on there.

Posted January 22, 2013 Keep forgetting about that, been meaning to pick it up for a while. I recall being able to access NintendoZone in a wetherspoons before with no verification etc, does anyone know why that was? Think I'll be jamming there after work so could do it while I'm there.

Posted January 22, 2013 So I downloaded Gunman Clive today... ...35 minutes later I finished Gunman Clive. Yeah, short game. Very short. But hey, you can't expect much for a couple of quid, and it is pretty good fun while it lasts. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

But hey, you can't expect much for a couple of quid, and it is pretty good fun while it lasts. I bought it earlier too, I guess 35 minutes is a bit short - but as you said it's like £2. What's that, £3.45ish an hour? Still better value than some retail! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Still better value than some retail!Yeah, and I'll get a little bit more playtime out of it. Have started a second playthrough on Hard difficulty, so that's at least another 35 mins. And perhaps there's an unlockable for finishing it on Hard? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Still really enjoyed it though, more than a hint of Megaman in it's mechanics. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Posted January 24, 2013 Picross E2 & Gunman Clive bought! Hovered over Crimson Shroud but decided to hold off until I clear some of my eShop backlog. I thought the trailer for Gunman Clive was quite amusing. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Posted January 26, 2013 There's an update available for Gunman Clive. Absolutely no idea what it does. I've considered Crimson Shroud but my next two purchases are going to be Denpa and Tokyo Crash Mobs (watched quick look on giant bomb yday so funny!)It was the humour and wackiness that initially attracted me to Tokyo Crash Mobs, but it's actually a really great, very challenging and highly addictive game. I'd recommend it to any fan of action puzzle games. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted January 26, 2013 There's an update available for Gunman Clive. Absolutely no idea what it does. It fixes a crash bug with the 2nd boss (before, the game would crash if you fought the 2nd boss with 3D turned on after about a minute or so) Oh BTW, the NSB update fixes a bug with a certain item of clothing. Got a notification about it Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Got a notification about it Yeah the Gunman Clive bug happened to me 3 times on that boss. It basically slows right down to 1/2 frames per second and then outright dies and stops moving. It was soooooo annoying. Cheers Redshell. I'm gonna polish off Mighty Switch Force then will pick up Tokyo Crash Mobs. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
