liger05 Posted January 17, 2013 Posted January 17, 2013 What has happened to Scribblenauts 3DS? Slipped to Q2?
RedShell Posted January 17, 2013 Posted January 17, 2013 COME ON SHIBATA! GIVE US A 3DS LINEUP THAT LOOKS LIKE THAT!!!Hmm... I'd rather Shibata give us a lineup like that, plus this: Animal Crossing: New Leaf - January 25th HarmoKnight - February 8th Luigi’s Mansion 2 - February 22nd (or... whenever, except bloody March!)
Dcubed Posted January 17, 2013 Posted January 17, 2013 What has happened to Scribblenauts 3DS? Slipped to Q2? This is a US list. The game is already out on 3DS over there. We're all waiting for the equivalent EU list to come out now!
Agent Gibbs Posted January 17, 2013 Posted January 17, 2013 i'm thinking of getting a 3DS XL, what would you guys consider the better colour/variant? Red/Black, White or Pikachu Yellow?
canand Posted January 17, 2013 Posted January 17, 2013 i'm thinking of getting a 3DS XL, what would you guys consider the better colour/variant? Red/Black, White or Pikachu Yellow? Pikachu 3DS XL its great
Agent Gibbs Posted January 18, 2013 Posted January 18, 2013 Pikachu 3DS XL its great WELL by popular vote its a pikachu one picked one up in a sale at Granger games today for £159 brand spanking new :p
Ike Posted January 18, 2013 Posted January 18, 2013 That's a pretty good price for the Pikachu edition.
Agent Gibbs Posted January 19, 2013 Posted January 19, 2013 it was a very good deal, GAME wanted £189, Amazon and loads of others wanted £179, checked Grangers website and they wanted £168....fast forward to going to the store, they had a sale on and it was reduced further! thinking time was over at this point i HAD to have it. Its far better in person than the pictures do justice! CLub Pikachu 3DS XL FTW
Josh64 Posted January 19, 2013 Posted January 19, 2013 I'm starting to get desperate now, when on earth do Nintendo plan to put GBA games on the eShop!?
-Dem0- Posted January 19, 2013 Posted January 19, 2013 when on earth do Nintendo plan to put GBA games on the eShop!? They're waiting for "Operation Rainfall...VC Edition"
Retro_Link Posted January 19, 2013 Posted January 19, 2013 They're waiting for "Operation Rainfall...VC Edition"I think we can only hope in an effort to make up for the last couple of E3 Nintendo are holding stuff back and will announce both GBA and Gamecube eShop games at E3.
nekunando Posted January 19, 2013 Posted January 19, 2013 I think we can only hope in an effort to make up for the last couple of E3 Nintendo are holding stuff back and will announce both GBA and Gamecube eShop games at E3. I see no reason why they can't add DS and Wii games too.. that would be excellent
Hero-of-Time Posted January 19, 2013 Posted January 19, 2013 I'm starting to get desperate now, when on earth do Nintendo plan to put GBA games on the eShop!? It's things like this that make me wish the Vita was posing a threat to the handheld market. If it was it may have made Nintendo get their finger out in regards to such things. As it stands they have no real competition and take it easy.
RedShell Posted January 19, 2013 Posted January 19, 2013 I thought GBA games were going to be Ambassador exclusive? Either way Nintendo is being far too slack with the VC. How the hell they haven't got Virtual Boy games on there yet I'll never know.

How the hell they haven't got Virtual Boy games on there yet I'll never know. I lost my ambassador 3ds so lost all those games. Why no standard account system Nintendo. Snes games would be nice as well!!!
Dcubed Posted January 19, 2013 Posted January 19, 2013 Indeed they were They said that they had "no plans to release them commercially", that doesn't mean that will remain the case forever... That being said, the way that they're treating the VC is simply criminal. They could release 3-4 games a week and still not run out of games to release even 6-7 years from now!
Blade Posted January 19, 2013 Posted January 19, 2013 I just dont understand why they do not support the VC more. I honestly just dont get it. How does it work on the Playstation? Do Sony put up games regular?
Agent Gibbs Posted January 19, 2013 Posted January 19, 2013 (edited) They said the NES games were got were Ambasador only yet look whats on the e-shop Super Mario and Zelda, so i take it all to mean time limited And seriously 10 GBA games are the only ones that will ever grace a 3DS and only ambassador ones? No the games we got were "exclusives" and time limited at that. Why they haven't started churning games out i don't know, but atleast i now have all the wario land games, now lets churn out some pokemon (although i can see them coming in October for "some" reason), Zelda, Mario ADVANCE games etc etc! there are THOUSANDS of GB/GBC/GBA advance games to choose to release, not to mention NES and GAMEGEAR games. Nintendo are being typically lazy with releasing VC games and it needs to stop its actually shameful, the fact Retro thinks they'd wait for E3 to anounce more (and WiiU GC games...)says it all, because quite frankly its extremely likely they think its acceptable to actually do that. Meanwhile on the PSN games are being released much quicker and i use "quick" loosely but still faster by a factor of 10 compared to nintendo I just dont understand why they do not support the VC more. I honestly just dont get it. How does it work on the Playstation? Do Sony put up games regular? yes usually one or two classics per week, not to mention PS3 games, Vita Games, PSP games etc etc it really is shameful how bad nintendo are at this Edited January 19, 2013 by Agent Gibbs

The amount of money Nintendo is just leaving on the table must be crazy. They have the the biggest library but won't let me give them my money.
Captain Falcon Posted January 19, 2013 Posted January 19, 2013 The NES games were always going to the eShop and they announced that at the time of the Ambassador Program - it was pretty clear. 1.Beginning Sept. 1st, Nintendo 3DS Ambassadors will be able to download 10 NES™ Virtual Console™ games at no charge and before they are available in Nintendo eShop for the general public. These games, including Super Mario Bros.™, Donkey Kong Jr.™, Balloon Fight™, Ice Climber™ and The Legend of Zelda™, will be released as paid downloadable games, but Ambassadors can download them in advance of launch for free. Once the paid versions of the games are released in Nintendo eShop later in the year, the updated versions will be available to Ambassadors for download at no cost. 2. By the end of 2011, Nintendo will provide Ambassadors with 10 Game Boy Advance Virtual Console games. These include games like Yoshi’s Island™: Super Mario™ Advance 3, Mario Kart™: Super Circuit, Metroid™ Fusion, WarioWare™, Inc.: Minigame Mania and Mario vs. Donkey Kong™. These games will be available exclusively to Ambassadors, and Nintendo currently has no plans to make these 10 games available to the general public on Nintendo 3DS in the future. The "no plans" line is pretty much a get out clause meaning they can do whatever they want... but it sounds better than "we haven't made up our mind yet".
Josh64 Posted January 19, 2013 Posted January 19, 2013 Aah I was mistaken! I thought the GBA games were only time exclusive too. Still, it really is shocking the amount of effort the have put into the VC. As usual, they promise to make the online store a better experience yet provide us with barely any games, and over priced ones at that. I mean seriously, GB games should be no more than £1.50. But that's a whole other matter, they can charge what they want for now as long as they start putting some titles on there. I've been waiting for Donkey Kong Land for a year and a half now!
flameboy Posted January 21, 2013 Posted January 21, 2013 So how the hell does spot pass work?! I don't quite understand. I've got two street passes so far. I have no idea how though. All I've done with my 3DS since I got it was drive from where I live suburbia to the sticks to go to work...maybe I drove past other people in their cars who were playing... but I drive to work between 6am-7am how many other people are driving at that time of day with 3DS' in their bags?!
Grazza Posted January 21, 2013 Posted January 21, 2013 SpotPass is the blue light, and is sent from Nintendo over a Wi-Fi network. StreetPass is the green light and happens when two 3DSes have been fairly near each other. If it's not Iwata or someone, you must have StreetPassed a real person! (Are you sure it wasn't one of your neighbours when you were at home?)
