GB games have been the sole savior of the eShop, though they've been hit and miss recently.jluedtke said:I'm not sure why I bother checking this thread. Nothing but a bunch of shit releases every week.
mclem said:My hunch says Christmas.
Although that said, I hope it's not because I'm likely to be at my parents' and on crappy metred satellite internet at that point.

Wii | Virtual Console
- Super Street Fighter II (Capcom | Mega Drive | 600 Points) Upcoming (11/08)
It's worth noting that the VC release of SSFII is online-enabled.
Yup. Strider is getting the same treatment later this month. Sega is handling the modding.sonikokaruto said:WAT!?
Strider isn't online. It's just getting released.Brazil said:Yup. Strider is getting the same treatment later this month.
You're right. It just shows how much I know about Strider.lunchwithyuzo said:Strider isn't online. It's just getting released.
The only online VC games so far are Puyo Puyo (VCA), Puyo Puyo Tsuu (VCA) and Super Street Fighter II (MD). All from M2.
Hey, maybe they delay in the GG VC games is to implement online multiplayer? :3
BooJoh said:I'm guessing the GBA games will hit on December 22nd or 29th. By then everyone's gotten their Christmas shopping done, so the free games won't eat into sales of retail titles. Plus it fits into Nintendo's history of doing things at the very last minute.

Sinthetic said:I'm looking forward to Freaky Forms next week. It looks weird and fun.
Eh? I thought it was DSiWare. Either way, the past two Escape Trick games have been critical duds, and IIRC, one of them shocked me by only having two stars on the eShop.WiiRevolution1 said:It looks like a Escape Trick game for 3DSWare is coming on the 17th!
I think there's more to it. How much, I'm not sure. If anyone's seen a preview, that'd be very useful...WiiRevolution1 said:Don't think I'll get Freakyforms. If you could create levels sure but just creatures? i dunno...I need to see more videos first.
zigg said:I don't think I have time for it now, but I did watch the video and wishlisted it. It looks pretty cool. I haven't paid a lot of attention, though--is there a goal of making a creature that will make it through the level?
Well, they released the NES games all at once. It stands to reason the GBA game will come all at once too.WiiRevolution1 said:Wonder when they'll release GBA games...since they have not released them yet I'll assume they are gonna release them all at once. Dunno why I thought otherwise...
For the same reason I haven't had time to check out any of the Rytmiksblu said:Why didn't anybody tell me about Rytmik Retrobits?!!
Sure!Sinthetic said:I'm not entirely sure mate, I can send you a video of roughly 2 minutes of action if you like. It just appeals to my weird nature.
You didn't ask? But yeah, Rytmik is pretty awesome. Hope they'll do a 3DS version with more channels, effects, import/ export via SD and maybe even OSC support.blu said:Why didn't anybody tell me about Rytmik Retrobits?!!
This tracker is soo bought when I get to my XL tomorrow. I'm even tempted to get it right now on the 3ds but I know it will be hating myself later. Check out the sample tunes on the official site.zigg said:For the same reason I haven't had time to check out any of the Rytmiks
Holy munchkins! I had to stumble upon this awesome stuff by accidentally clicking on one of the promotional videos on the DE store. And by some cosmic luck I had my headphones on!

zigg said:Haha, while looking for info on Freakyforms I came across this, further proving my hypothesis that nobody at IGN knows how to have any fun at all:

That article is kinda funny. Also I may be wrong but I'm pretty sure the game does use 3d even though the gameplay is 2d so not "strictly 2d". Maybe writer was playing an early build.zigg said:Haha, while looking for info on Freakyforms I came across this, further proving my hypothesis that nobody at IGN knows how to have any fun at all:

Yup, that's coming this week, looking forward to it.RelentlessRolento said:yay! feakyforms this week... unless Im wrong >_<
Oni Link 666 said:That Samurai game, Nimble Sakura Warrior, is coming next week in Japan - http://www.nintendo.co.jp/3ds/eshop/jllj/index.html
also, black and white Bionic Commando - http://www.nintendo.co.jp/3ds/eshop/vc/rbdj/index.html
Yes. Yes it is.RelentlessRolento said:Is GB Bionic Commando any good? Been years since I played it
I'm with you.TheUnknownForce said:It seems, looking over the site, that the Nimble Sakura Warrior game will have three bosses, of which we have seen one. Hopefully the game is not too short. I think it could be a delightful game to play if it comes stateside.
@MUWANdo said:I think the recent NOA/NOE press releases listed it as early 2012, but I don't really remember.
The previous Capcom 3DS VC games both took a few months to be released internationally, but NOE did schedule Bionic Commando for a release this year, so hopefully it drops soon.
Cave Story DSiWare has been dated for Japan - November 22. Published by Asterizm (the same dudes who published La-Mulana WiiWare), 1000 Points. Still no word on a PAL release. Nicalis is fucking hopeless.
I can't understand why they have released Bomberman Hero, and not the superior Bomberman 64... it is annoying.EvilMario said:Speaking of Bomberman Hero, I notice the Wikipedia entry has Bomberman 64 as 'released' on Virtual Console. I checked all regions, and didn't see it on the Wiki list for games. Did it somehow release when I wasn't looking?
The GB and GBC Bionic Commando games are both outstanding, yes.RelentlessRolento said:Is GB Bionic Commando any good? Been years since I played it

Celine said:BTW is Space Ace any good on DSiware?
Price is a bit high.
