I was horrible in 1987 and the years haven't been kind. I like Twinbee, but not the NES version. I'd say NO.

I feel bad because it is the one 3D Classics game I won't have and therefore won't have a complete set but I can't pull the trigger...yuck.

I don't mind the NES version of Twinbee though. I know it's not perfect, but I remember enjoying it as a kid.

It's the only 150 3DS option that I have any interest in, and that's how many coins I have left. But I could always add more coins too, but nothing is really jumping out at me.

Well, you just answered your own question then. :p

If you enjoyed it enough at the time, then go for it man, I would. Seems like a no brainer. I assume you already have Urban Champion? LOL

I haven't been able to enter the site at all, it still shows me the "Sorry!" Message. It never loaded in mobile, and it hasn't loaded up ever since I got home.

I'll be honest with you. I actually kind of enjoyed the 3D Classics version of it. I wouldn't pay for it mind you, but, for free? As someone who never owned it back in the day...it wasn't quite as bad I thought it would be. Unfortunately it is too damn easy and after a while it starts to get boring. Just a sucker for classic Nintendo I guess.

That said I am going to be grabbing Xevious. Have never been a huge fan, but I imagine the 3D effect will be fantastic with the air/land aiming and gameplay. Been waiting for it to show up again, so here is my chance. Plus I have pretty much everything else. :p

Was hoping they would throw that NES Donkey Kong with cement factory hack up there....

I'm not a hardcore UC hater, I remember having fun putzing around with it at my friends house, but I also remember how shallow the experience is. I kinda feel bad for it. XD

I can't understand how Nintendo keeps standing by the shoddy NES port. It would be like if The Matrix Bluray was built using a 4:3 VHS copy. I wish Nintendo would release a good version of Donkey Kong. The only legit version Nintendo released was the port (emulation?) of the arcade version that Rare put in DK 64. Why does Nintendo hate the real Donkey Kong? Is it just that they hate all arcade games now?

Oh, if I had paid $30-40 for it back in 1987? I'd be livid....just like I was when I bought Star Voyager or Karnov. :D

Shallow is the PERFECT describer for it too.

All this talk does is make me very sad we never got more of these 3D Classics now. ;(

Rumor has it that they don't own the rights to the arcade version of their own game. Crazy, I know.

At the end of the day, the NES version of Donkey Kong is a piece of crap otherwise...but I would have liked to have had this release just for the novelty of it.

Yeah, full price Urban Champion would be a bit hard to swallow. My friend got it in a bundle with a ton of other games though, so I doubt his parents payed much of anything for it.

The actual 3D aspects of the 3D Classics never really appealed to me much, but I just wish Nintendo was more proactive about getting more retro titles available, 1st and 3rd party.

Sticker Star or Star Fox 3D guys?
Click to expand...

I just downloaded Star Fox today and played Sticker Stars in the past.

STAR FOX. FOR THE LOVE THAT IS GOOD GAMEPLAY STAR FOX. I got rid of Sticker Stars so fast, it was terribly design, and the whole system of getting stickers was annoying. The game could had been a million times more fun, but it isn't. Nintendo really Ff'd up this game.

Star Fox is good right now, I say go with it.


But for anyone who wants to get Paper Mario. DON'T. Unless your some seriously Paper Mario fan, even then! Don't get it.

Hopefully, it won't take long. I registered a lot of codes last week and I don't want to miss any post-play surveys. :(

I keep making it in and then getting booted! First time in a while I made it to the rewards page. Click on something, booted back out :/

I just know that by the time we get in everything will be gone like the messenger bag, the LoZ 3DS XL pouch, the game case... Pretty much all that will be left are posters and the cooking hand game.

Twinbee 3D, YES/NO???

Is this the 3D Classics one? It's really fun and addictive. The one with the bells, right? I don't even like top-down shooters usually but I think it's a lot of fun.

So many of my unused codes were invalid. Thanks exploiters.
Click to expand...

Could be that, or it might just be the site being wonky with all the traffic. Same codes I've tried at different times today have given me different results (i.e. no result one time, coins the next), so it might be worth trying again when the site's working better.

Ugh don't know whether to get the 3DS game case or the Animal Crossing playing cards...

The 3ds game case would actually be used but the cards are so nice looking....

After 2 hours of trying to get on, I finally did! I got Kid Icarus: Uprising. Chrome on Mac seemed to have the best luck at getting signed in.

It would be great if I could wake up tomorrow morning and get all my CN business done without any issues.

Considering how bad things have been all day, I'm not even sure that's a realistic expectation.

Anyone who was able to order anything today is a damned wizard or something because I haven't even gotten close.

Finally was able to get my order though. Got the messenger bag. Made sure I printed out the confirmation just in case, even though the coins did deduct.

Got 255 coins left. Not sure what to use them on.

This poster pulses with an appeal so broad the typical restraints of our societies fall by the wayside.
I haven't even been able to get the site to load, let alone sign in. Luckily none of the physical rewards are really interesting to me anyway. MAYBE I'll get the calendar, but if they run out of them, I won't be too bummed.

Awesome, sounds like a good reason enough to get Star Fox then :)

I guess I won't ever get that poster :/

Does anyone know if there's a really high-res version of Shulk's poster around so I can print it myself someday?
