Posted May 6, 2013 What is everyone most looking forward to on the eShop? I've got at least five must-haves incoming: 1. Shantae and the Pirate's Curse 2. Oracle of Ages 3. Oracle of Seasons 4. Mighty Switch Force 2 5. Shantae (original) Those are all Day 1 for me. Pretty much the same as my list. Just add Shovel Knight onto it for good measure I wish I had more GB/GBC games to look forward to, but sadly Nintendo don't want my money Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted May 6, 2013 Oh yeah, I did forget about Shovel Knight. Are there a lot of "big" GB/GBC games to release? (I genuinely don't know.) I'm hoping they get them all out and then give us the GBA. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted May 6, 2013 Don't get Fun! Fun! Minigolf Touch! anyone whatever you do...it's in the Shinen sale and it sucks....no content at all you will done within an hour and half. I've unlocked everything and apart from a hand full of holes I've got a hole in one on all of them. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted May 6, 2013 Aww, but 'fun' is in the title twice! And three exclamation points! If you can't trust exclamation points, then I don't want to live on this planet anymore. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted May 7, 2013 What is everyone most looking forward to on the eShop?Here's my 5 most anticipated eShop releases: 1. KORG M01D 2. Flipnote Studio 3D 3. Mighty Switch Force 2 4. Mario and Donkey Kong: Minis on the Move 5. Shantae and the Pirate's Curse Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted May 7, 2013 (edited) Oh wow! Bloody hell, how did I forget about Flipnote Studio 3D!? That's probably my number 1! Edit: A wild Denpa Men 2 trailer approaches! That English synthesis is much better than what Nintendo has used before with Animal Crossing! I wonder... Tomodachi Collection 2!?

Posted May 7, 2013 Starship Damrey is actually going to be released next week. We've been notified by Nintendo that "THE STARSHIP DAMREY from LEVEL-5 has now been moved to 16th May"; that's that, then. From a Sales & Marketing 101 perspective this is arguably a smart move, as Nintendo won't want a great many purchases focusing on Mario's latest shenanigans when there's a Guild02 offering arriving at the same time; rather like with the Level-5 predecessors from Guild01, we'd expect these releases to be given prime billing on the 3DS eShop. For those of us intrigued by The Starship Damrey's concept of a sci-fi setting, a protagonist with a loss of memory and a hands-off approach that leaves the player to figure everything out for themselves, we'll just need to wait one week longer. http://www.nintendolife.com/news/2013/05/the_starship_damreys_eu_release_is_forgotten_until_16th_may Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted May 7, 2013 A shame, but probably the right decision. M&DK would no doubt steal all of the spotlight for itself if it came out on the same day as Damrey (and I'm sure that PKMN Mystery Dungeon next week is not gonna be competing for the same audience for the most part, so it shouldn't have much of an effect on Damrey, if at all). A week's wait is not a big deal. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted May 8, 2013 So, SEGA are releasing a 3D version of Sonic the Hedgehog in Japan next week. Features: - 3D (obviously). - Button customization. - Save at any point. - Turn the spin dash on or off. - Stage Select (includes special stages and Final Zone) - Choose between Japanese and overseas versions. - CTR mode and bleeding options - Choose between Mega Drive or Mega Drive 2 sound. http://archives.sega.jp/3d/sonic/ They've apparently done similar with Super Hang-On 3D and Space Harrier 3D, but none have made it over here yet. I hope that changes. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted May 8, 2013 I really really hope SEGA start bringing their 3D Classics to Europe, I'd love to play Sonic 1 in 3D Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Posted May 17, 2013 Great to see Shining Force: Sword of Hajya coming to the 3DS! Not sure why this didn't appear in the UK Direct, but I assume it'll make it over here. Lovely music in that game and some of the best graphics on the system imo. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Posted May 17, 2013 The Zelda Oracle titles to be released with a small discount in NA. From Nintendolife: Same as in Japan. We'll probably get a similar discount on both games as well (wouldn't be surprised if they copied Japan's promotion, where you get a discount when you buy both games) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
