Nintendo Downloads - September 2014

Know what's crazy? Even their pictures of NES from Wii U to 3DS shows the vast difference in the image quality of the emulation. Look how dark the Wii U NES is.

Good prices for those games though!

I would be upset over 3d World being $20 off, but I played it more than enough over the last month to get my money's worth out of it.

Guess I better start playing Tropical Freeze since I got it last night before it goes on sale too.

I like how you can see that NES games look bad on Wii U even from the icons :lol

Hoping Donkey Kong sale is Tropical Freeze and not just Returns 3D.
Also, Ike being listed for the Fire Emblem sale could still just be Awakening because of the DLC, right? (I don't think this is when Nintendo secretly springs Gamecube VC on us)

Coming weeks in picture form:

What's this? Someone else remembers Robotrek? :O

I'm European, I don't remember it. We never got the game but I've wanted to play and own it legally for years since I'm a big fan of Quintet's output. Physical copies are quite pricey...

Reminder that SMB2 on Wii U is currently a Club Nintendo reward until it gets switched out on Monday.

Also, Week 4 has Fox......but I can't think of any downloadable titles on the eShop featuring Fox....& I REALLY doubt it's hinting at Star Fox on SNES coming to the Wii U VC. & I don't think they'd discount Star Fox 64 on the Wii VC.

StarFox 64 3D on the 3DS eShop obviously. Don't get crazy.

I wonder if the other sales tie into VC releases for Fire Emblem GBA and Metroid Zero Mission.

Lol I just noticed that outside of this sale, a nearly two year old launch title (New Super Mario Bros U) is still priced at $59.99. Never change Nintendo. u_u

Considering Zero Suit Samus is featured on the sale separately from Samus, I think there's a good chance we might get Zero Mission.

*tries Tappingo 2* WTF, did they remove D-pad support? That was my preferred control scheme for the original. Now it's the circle pad, which feels awkward since it isn't as precise as the d-pad.

My physical copy can't hold a save file anymore, so I'm dying for a digital copy. D:

I hope that

a) Wario gets revealed as a veteran this month

and

b) Nintendo sneaks him into the fourth week of the sale

I just really want to buy Wario Lands 2-4, and a sale would be a great incentive to do so.

Not only do I remember Robotrek but I also remember Soul Blazer, Actraiser, Illusion of Gaia, Terranigma, E.V.O. the Search for Eden, Brain Lord, Mischief Makers and The Seventh Saga. If only Square Enix did.

I also remember a whole lot of Squaresoft, Taito and Quest games across various Nintendo platforms that Square Enix doesn't seem interested in letting me buy for some reason.

Wait so with FE7, was it just released during the sale at regular price, or did it come with a day 1 discount?

It had a day 1 discount. It made no sense as a release* but I shouldn't complain.

*-Marth is not in the game (the FE placement in general didn't, Awakening only in newcomers week would have worked) and it came out on veterans week. That didn't stop plenty of people asking on gamefaqs back in 2003 though...

Actually, if the tax rate really is 20% then you have to multiply by 1,25 (divide by 0,8) to get the correct price.
2,30€ *1,25 =2,875€.

Hmm...I may not be that big in economics, but wouldn't those taxes be 20% of the price before taxes (meaning *1.2) and not after taxes (=*1.25)?

So the Curtain Call demo bonus is that you'll get more characters at the start of the full version. & the two songs in the demo are Edgar & Sabin's Theme from 6 & J-E-N-O-V-A (AC Version) from Advent Children.

Well, I'm sold on Theatrhyhtm: Curtain Call after playing the demo.
Though I was probably going to buy it anyway.

I put 100s of hours into the first one and maxed out everything; I'm so excited for Curtain Call!

Pro tip: If you're going to play the hell out of CC, you might want to use a cotton swab instead of the stylus so you don't destroy the touch screen. It gets intense!

Ditto on all of that, although fixed the last part a bit :þ

Nintendo Canada tweeted out a link http://www.nintendo.com/en_CA/whatsnew/detail/MIleW7XhJNJBQ6Z0mwM-h8Pw-VyoNQm5 , which lists some of the games that are going to be on sale. It's missing a bunch from this week, so it's not comprehensive, but it tells us some of the games that'll be on sale. (Also, it says that games will be up to 40% off, but that's probably a price difference thing).
Week 2
Fire Emblem: Awakening (Nintendo 3DS)
The Legend of Zelda™: The Minish Cap (Wii U)
Sonic the Hedgehog (Nintendo 3DS)
Mega Man X (Wii U)


Week 3
Pokémon™ Battle Trozei (Nintendo 3DS)
Pokémon Rumble U (Wii U)
Metroid™ (Wii U)
Metroid™ (Nintendo 3DS)
Wii Fit™ U (Wii U)

Week 4
Animal Crossing™: New Leaf (Nintendo 3DS)
Pikmin™ 3 (Wii U)
Donkey Kong Country™: Tropical Freeze (Wii U)
PAC-MAN™ and the Ghostly Adventures (Wii U)
PAC-MAN™ and the Ghostly Adventures (Nintendo 3DS)

Nothing too surprising, although it's nice to confirm that Tropical Freeze will be on sale.

So, how is Pokémon Trozei anyway? I love Pokémon... and I love puzzle games... but somehow I never bothered with that.

I wonder if Sonic is the Game Gear or the 3D Classics Genesis version?

I was hoping Pilotwings Resort would make an appearance for Mii representation. I want to double dip digital on it but not for $40.

It's a lot improved over the DS game and a lot of fun, with plenty of content. The biggest issue I've run into that I'd like to see fixed is that once you gain a certain amount of skill you can essentially keep combos running forever, but that's pretty much only going to become an issue if you go completionist on the game like I did.
