Not happening. Binding of Isaac 3D is a possibility though.

It's possible. Only reason the WiiWare version (you know, the one it was first announced for) didn't happen is size constraints. Some demos on the eShop right now are more than 330 megabytes. They could make it work.

Ah OK, I was just commenting on the technical reasons.
I've never played VVVVVV before but it does look interesting. Does the game not display in widescreen? How many hours of gameplay can one expect to get out of it? I recall someone talking about custom levels, is that using QR codes or something?
For reference I didn't purchase Mighty Switch Force because approx. 3 hours of gameplay is too short for me and I'm not very interested in speed runs.

So they don't want to release the same game every year like 2D Boy GRRRRRR? Might be good.

VVVVVV is a very short game, but also a very good one. Even if you don't like to replay games I would recommend the PC version, which is currently on sale on Steam.
Haven't they said as much?
Three hours? Who lied to you?

I guess if you took your time and died a bunch you could get three.

I would agree if it wasn't currently on sale on Steam and you were only comparing the regular prices (Steam = $4.99 vs eShop = $7.99). Saying all that, it's currently $1.24 on Steam and that difference is huge.
It took me about two hours, without going for par. I could probably get another couple hours out of it going for par, but that's not my bag.

Didn't one of the team meat guys say on twitter that nicalis was doing a port of VVVVVV and said something about them doing Isaac?
He didn't say they are doing it but he said... I'll look for the quote.
Blah can't find and and don't feel like going though their twitter so forget that quote I guess.
Anyways here is hope.
Mighty Switch Force took up almost 1/4th of the space on the provided 4GB SD card.
Stock card is only 2GB

Huh? GBA games were added a couple of weeks ago for Ambassadors.

This is ruined by me knowing your real opinion on the game
Also, I too want to know about importing PC levels, so I shot Nicalis a tweet about it. We'll see if they respond.

Thats a shame, I'm sure I read somewhere that after they canned the Wiiware version that they were going to look into a 3DS version down the road. Was really holding out for that, oh well looks like I'll need to go play the 360 or PC version then.
Like VVVVVV so far, the gameplay seems soo simple yet I can see myself getting hours of frustration out of it.
Did anyone report that the Jett Rocket 3ds eshop game is gonna be called Jett Rocket Super Surf? Maybe it will have some wifi water racing.

Awesome review, for all those worried about the asking price there seems to be a tonne of exclusive material in this version going off that review so hopefully should be able to get your monies worth out of it.
I don't know if anyone reported it here, but it was revealed a couple of weeks ago when Nintendo updated the 3DS future releases list.

Yeah, VVVVVV for 3DS is not just the original game.
It has 18 Player Levels: 10 from the PC update, and 8 exclusive levels to this version. According to the Destructoid Review, they range to 1/10 to 1/2 the length of the main game.
Add in Time Trials and whatnot, and the game has more content than it may appear.
And apparently if it sells well, they should be able to update it with a Level Editor and Importer. For now, it is still a great game as always!

How do you activate the modes? Do you have to finish the game first?
MatthewB92

Maybe. It's in the game mode options. When I enable it the screens are black.
Edit: I finished the game before checking so IDK if you have to beat it to unlock it.

Picked up Bionic Commando - almost bit on VVVVVV, still haven't played it, but can't justify it at that price when I can get it on Steam cheaper.

What did the Mario Land and Mario Land 2 updates do?
What updates?

I just got an update for each today when I checked in my Downloaded Titles list.
Doesn't seem to be a way to see patch notes and no noticeable changes.
I'm not seeing updates for either of them.

Speaking of which, Sakura Samurai seems to have an update for those who have it on JP 3DS's. No idea what it does, though.
Oh wow. This sounds amazing.
Wait, so you can't even import levels via SD slot like they said you'd be able to?

And? Verdict?

My guess is that implementing it was harder than it seemed. Perhaps Nintendo shot down the idea, and now they need to remake the level editor from scratch to allow importing to work out or something.
^^I don't doubt that for a second (and I particularly don't doubt that Nicalis found it tough, seeing as they struggle to port anything without screwing it up) but if it wasn't gonna be in the final product they should have said so before release, or just not mentioned it at all.
If you like the NES game you'll like the GB game. They look quite different but they play similarly.

Folders, Nintendo, FOLDERS!!!
I have 30+ icons on my 3DS, and it ain't pretty having no way to organize them without having to painstakingly drag them around everytime I get something new. :/

A little fluff between the ears never did any harm...
And another week without Hulu, so much for having it by the end of the year.
