Not yet, no. On my to buy list though.

 

Doh!

I got a memory like a sieve. :heh:

 

*EDIT*

That be Wii U only though, so I guess this is still kind of useful. ::shrug:

As for games you missed... There's a lot... (including Dr Luigi which just came out today!)

 

One you should be on the lookout for within the next month or so is Sayonara Umihara Kawase (which is getting a US release on the eShop this month and an EU release shortly afterwards)

 

I made a post about it some time ago with details here

 

Other games you missed...

 

Shovel Knight (Wii U & 3DS exclusive), Rusty Pup (Wii U & 3DS only), Scram Kitty (Wii U exclusive), The 90s Arcade Racer (Wii U & PC only), Tengami (Wii U and iOS only), QUBE: Director's Cut (Wii U exclusive - original version was PC only), Oddworld: New & Tasty (multi-plat), Shantae: Half Genie Hero (multi-plat), 1000 Spikes (multi-plat), Mighty No 9 (multi-plat), Teslagrad (Wii U & PC only) and even more should be on everyone's shopping list!

 

Edit: Yeah I did just totally copy/paste my post from Ike's thread but like Retro Link said, a 3DS specific one would be nice (plus Umihara needs more appreciation anyway!)

There's room for both threads I think, Ike's thread has lots of videos in it for each title which serves to remind us why we are waiting for these great games whereas Red's thread is useful for keeping track of the releases being that it's purely text. :)

 

As long as neither of the threads get de-railed then I see no reason why we shouldn't have both. : peace:

Persona Q (3DS) is at least out in Japan in June this year, we might see it by the end of the year.

I was meant to do a 3DS thread but I never got round to it. I can still do one if people are interested?

There be a lot of eShop exclusives going on! :o

Sorry I forgot about your thread, Ike. :blush:

 

The idea for this was just to be able to quickly see what's coming up, to plan what I'm gonna get. :hehe:

 

Figure it'd be cool to also have a record of what was released (and when) for people to look back on as the year progresses too.

As I mentioned before I enjoyed your Wii U games in 2014 thread because it had videos in there which are useful to have in one place as it reminds everyone just why they are waiting for those games, it's nice that you have that bit of background information to go with them too, so yes I'd love to see a 3DS thread in similar vein. :D

Hmmm, looks like Professor Layton vs. Phoenix Wright: Ace Attorney and maybe Persona Q for me if it makes it out this year.

No worries. ;)Yours will probably get updated more anyway.

Let us not forget the awesomeness that is awaiting us:

 

 

Two Brothers also isn't on your list. Is that still coming to the WiiU?

No idea. :blank: Added to the ??? section though.

 

Also added Virtual Console releases to the list, which could potentially make things a bit messy (then again... considering the rate at which they release VC games... :heh:) but I'll be spoiler tagging each month that has past in order to keep this a bit tidier and easier to follow anyway. ;)

Updated the list with release date info from the ND.

That lack of blue titles... :nono:

 

 

My purchases are probably going to go something like this...

 

Feb:

Donkey Kong Country: Tropical Freeze

Senran Kagura Burst

 

March:

Nowt. :hmm:

Yoshi is looking way too similar to the SNES version, plus I'll be busy with DK and the booby game. :heh:

 

April:

Nintendo Pocket Football Club

and possibly NES Remix 2

 

May:

Mario Golf: World Tour

Mario Kart 8

 

Will save Kirby for a future drought. :hehe:

Shame we don't have concrete releases for this indie games, that could fill it up nicely. But I guess the submit and it's up as soon as they're ready... But it sounds like in the very near future we could get a couple per week

There are some games we know the month of, isn't it worth putting them in the months at least?

 

Shovel knight for both in march, pier Solar for Wii u April, ping 1.5 may, squids odyssey April (both )

 

due to the nature of submissions it's almost impossible to give confirmed release dates of indies

@RedShell Just an idea: wouldn't it be more convenient to have the Wii U eShop and VC both in one colour, and the 3DS ones in another? Like this:

 

February:

:

6th:

My Farm (Wii U)

NES Open Tournament Golf (Wii U)

 

13th:

Steel Diver: Sub Wars (3DS)

 

14th:

Inazuma Eleven 3: Team Ogre Attacks

The Lego Movie Videogame

The Lego Movie Videogame

 

 

20th:

Weapon Shop De Omasse (3DS)

Ice Hockey (Wii U)

Retro City Rampage: DX (3DS)

Kung Fu Rabbit (3DS)

Renegade (3DS)

 

21st:

Donkey Kong Country: Tropical Freeze

 

28th:

Senran Kagura Burst

 

Much more straightforward to my eye, at least...

Cheers for the suggestion @Ville, I've made that change to the list. icon14.gif

The problem is that when games only have the month of their release specified they tend to change, and I don't really want to be faffing around with having to constantly move titles on the list.

 

And as you mentioned, indie titles usually only get confirmed dates right before launch, so I've actually removed all of the eShop stuff from the ??? section, and left only the retail games.

 

Think this (and the change that Ville suggested) makes the list a bit cleaner and more straightforward. :cool:

I will obviously still add all of the eShop/VC titles, as and when they get confirmed release dates. :)

 

: peace:

 

*EDIT*

Added little countdown timers to retail games too! :hehe:
