I can't believe how bad the NA 3DS Downloads have been.

You would think Nintendo would have a team on it for expanding the service to SNES/64/GBA/DS games for quick, easy money. Maybe we'll hear more at E3, especially maybe some kind of plan for sharing your games between your Wii U and 3DS accounts.

Still no Assassin's Creed III at GameStop, either.

3DSware & DSi games haven't been that bad so far. But I guess people are more interested in old ass games.

It needs to be localized by a very small team and it's not done yet. This is the reality of the situation. If you want to whine about it, go whine to the guy who apparently isn't working hard enough for you.

I'm pissed that Kid Icarus 3D doesn't have New Game plus like the NES original. They strip you of all your items when you beat the game.

The 3D Classics version seems to be a strange amalgam of the Famicom and NES versions.

This particular piece is how the Famicom version behaved.

With this information I instantly feel better about no mutant mudds in Europe yet... oh wait.

I prefer to vent my frustration here.

Frustrated because localization takes time.

Maybe take a step back and reevaluate your life.

This week's EU update:

eShop: Block Factory
DSiWare: Inchworm Animation
WiiWare: 2 Fast 4 Gnomz

Since this is the last update of the month, that means La-Mulana (No surprise there) and Metal Slug 3 have been delayed.

I'm still too obsessed with Colors 3D to care about anything else for a while...

Effect · Apr 23, 2012

I'm actually glade SNES games aren't on the service. I'd be spending a LOT more money if that were the case. Out of all the systems I've own that was the one where I spent the most time with and have the most love for. It also is the system where the most games I wish I played when I was a kid came out on. The only reason I still haven't jumped on those games on the Wii Shop is because I didn't have the time in the past. Now I want to be sure I can at least transfer those games to the Wii U. Once they address that, hopefully at E3, I'm going right to the Wii Shop channel to buy a lot games along with a few Wii Ware games.

Get Inchworm Animation if you haven't already. There's a lot of overlap with Colors in terms of feature set but it also allows you to create very lengthy animations (including stop-motion stuff with the camera) and export 'em as GIFs. Looks fantastic on DSi XL, too.

Quite looking forward to Block Factory (as long as its reasonably priced)... I love those type of games...

I wish they'd import Goemon 2-4 on the SNES for VC. They're all better than the first game. Goemon 2 is my favorite of them all.

Well Nintendo is still trying to hire a "Digital Distribution Specialist" for the last few months haha.

I'm actually thinking of applying and I'll bring every game you guys could want on the eshop and VC! haha.

Yea it's annoying that our games from Wii shop aren't compatible with 3DS. Sony at least did it right with there setup.

BorkBork · Apr 24, 2012

Chopper said:

Few N64 titles were even released.
Almost no third party VC titles. (Ogre Battle and Cruising USA maybe?)
It's Konami.

Such a shame.

Robin64 · Apr 24, 2012

[obligatory moaning about how it's been 4 months since VVVVVV was released in America and Europe still lacks it]

But on a more serious note, I am really digging Colors! 3D. Sadly I absolutely suck at painting, especially digital painting. My first go, a house on a hill, looked absolutely childish. So I resigned myself to watching the paintings of other people instead. Some of those guys are *amazing*.

It's not. The Nintendo Direct video was referring to Kirby's Adventure, which still isn't out in Japan.

Robin64 · Apr 24, 2012

If you really want to play Kirby's Dreamland as a 3D Classic, just get to stage 6 in Rainbow Resort of Kirby's Aventure 3D Classic. Voila, instant Kirby's Dreamland 3D Classic.

Given that the page says that is already out and Kirby's Dream Land already exists as a Virtual Console game on the eShop, I'm going to say that's a mistake on the site.
Nintendo wouldn't have put it out on Virtual Console if they were going to do a 3D Classics version later, and they wouldn't have them both on the store at the same time.

I believe it had something to do with the game requiring a memory card to save not being emulated proper. Rayman 2 and Quest 64 weren't released for this same reason, I think.

Well that and the fact that they only released like ten N64 games anyway.

Well it is unlikely that you would think that you are being unreasonable

.

Thank you however for agreeing that it is just not worth pursuing it in this thread. The 'discussion' got quite unpleasant and personal and that's no good for any of us. Not least the pair of you who were banned over it. Besides, it doesn't make for a fun read when a thread is littered with complaint posts about x,y,z game being unreleased, whatever territory that is.

Perhaps we could all kiss [tongues optional] and make up and leave this all in the past where it belongs?

tl;dr: Will no-one think of the children?!!!

JavyOO7 · Apr 24, 2012

I played Mutant Mudds demo yesterday and it'll probably be the first eShop title I buy. Though now because of that title I want to get some titles that have caught my eye...

Pushmo
Mighty Switch Force
VVVVVVVVVV
Zen Pinball
Sakura Samurai
Dillion's Rolling Western

And I'm pretty sure there are some gems in DSi Ware land that I don't know about yet.

Pushmo and VVVVVV are the best options on that list, though I would get VVVVVV on Steam instead since it's cheaper there.

If we go by past firmware update timings, it would be up tomorrow morning (around 9AM) European time, so probably midnight for American people. Just speculation though.
