So guys.
Dr. Luigi or NES Remix?
Dr. Luigi or NES Remix?
The Wii U VC needs another "Earthbound." A game that gets everyone excited, or at least interested. Perhaps something niche? Perhaps an import?
So guys.

Not at home next to my Wii U at the moment, but checking Miiverse there is neither a Contar III nor a Super Probotector community online. What's going on?
So guys.

You just have to look closer. There's one.
Is it still an ok thing to complain about NOA or is that getting really old and doing nothing to help us?
So guys.

Is NES Remix content/value wise really worth $15? Looks fun but finding it hard to pull the trigger. Definitely not getting Dr. Luigi, total rip off.
Bought Gradius today despite my disapproval of NOA's tactics. I'm taking a shower and starting it up. Too many complainers about this game on Miiverse. Someone even had the nerve to call it a bad game.

That's been about the first day of any VC game released in the last few weeks. I know we all want Mario 3 (which, to be fair, was supposed to have released by now) and Zelda, but there's a point where the complaints get a hyperbolic.Bought Gradius today despite my disapproval of NOA's tactics.

YES. I was doubtful at first but I bought it thanks to the impressions in the GAF thread. It is fantastic.
It's a fun game. Not the best deal out there but unless you loathe NES games or this type of game structure (score attack, replaying stages to perfect your perfomance) definitely get it.
Yeah, I would say NES Remix is a case of NoA (not NoE!) missing the mark with "perceived value", because a lot of people are going to, at least at first, feel it's not worth $15. To some people, it won't be.
But rest assured there's a ton of content in there, so if you think it's the kind of game you will enjoy, then you'll get plenty value from it.
Looks like Europe is getting Legend of the Mystical Ninja (SNES) on Wii U VC next week. Is it any good?

Don't forget tax if your state has it.
Nope. No tax at the store, taxes are on the eShop if you enter in your zip code and you have sales tax in your area. Sucks I know.
Michigan seemed to go back and forth on that a bit over the years, but now it's the value of the card with no tax, and tax is charged to my eShop credit when I make a purchase.Well, I get charged tax at the store.

That really sucks because that means your $20 card isn't really worth $20 once it's redeemed. I would rather pay the tax at the store and get the full $20 credit on my account.
Eh, I'm not troubled by the notion of carrying a small balance to cover tax. When it finally comes time to empty the account at the end of the 3DS' life, I'll just use the option to charge whatever I'm missing and end up at zero.That really sucks because that means your $20 card isn't really worth $20 once it's redeemed.

Technically, yes, but for US residents in many states (including Michigan), one is legally obligated to pay sales tax.You can just input a zip code from a tax free area, that's what I did. I don't even live in the US but I have a US 3DS.

Nope. Any time you buy from the eShop and don't have enough credit, you can charge just enough to complete your purchase.I suppose that if I have $20 on my account and I need $21.36 then the extra $1.36 will come off of my card. I don't have to add another set amount like $10 just to pay the $1.36, right?

NES Gradus for $5, LoL!
Hugs my copy of Gradius V and Galaxies!
I don't think it's entirely not worth it. It's better than $5 for Urban Champion. Also, I think V is overrated! The levels are too long!
It actually got rated by the ESRB for PSN as a PS2 Classic & there was confirmation on here that it was happening. Why it hasn't happened yet, I don't know...You know, I wonder why Konami doesn't make V available on digital platforms.
V is still an amazing shooter than showcases how good Treasure is with the genre.I don't think it's entirely not worth it. It's better than $5 for Urban Champion. Also, I think V is overrated! The levels are too long!
So after sitting on it for months, I fiiiiinally went ahead and started SteamWorld Dig.
everyone was right!
I wish they would put out a demo, because the gameplay seems really unappealing to me based on the impressions and video footage I've seen. They need to put out a demo so I can understand what makes the game so good. Otherwise there's no chance that I'm ever going to buy it.
I'm one of the few on he board who doesn't like it. It is incredibly repetitive.
Has this game ever been on sale on eShop?
Don't think there have been any first-party eShop sales for retail titles. Want to say that they sometimes start off at a lower than MSRP price on eShop (am I misremembering here?), but once they're on the eShop at a price, they haven't moved, so far.
In many ways, digging in SWD is like an RPG grind. Grinding gets a bad rap, but there's a reason many people can find it enjoyable -- if it's paced well. SWD really nails the pacing, which makes it fun. Every so often you encounter little mini-challenges in the mine, which you need to tread carefully around to successfully create a path. Otherwise you could get stuck or end up with an annoying climb. You get better at this as you play, but the game also throws more interesting digging challenges at you, so you're kept on your toes. In addition to the digging itself, the upgrade cycle is quick so you're always getting new stuff to play with.
With that said, I think some people hate grinding no matter what, so they will probably get bored.
