I was too hyped for Fallblox I didn't notice it....where is HarmoKnight?! :(
Also I wanted that Blacksmith game from guild 01 too.
 
So how much do you think the eShop versions of games that can be found at retail first or second hand for £15-£30 will be? I'm guessing £40 will be NOEs flawless tactic of putting a stop to the pesky second hand sales...I'd like to be wrong...

Shibata for king of England.

Been a great direct so far.
NoE is in Hesse, Germany. Administration and stuff in Frankfurt, everything else in Großostheim. Fun fact: Konami Europe is also in Frankfurt - because of Nintendo. They wanted to be close to their closest partner, back when they still were close partners.

Is this why Nintendo products typically sell pretty well in Germany? (Compared to other EU regions.)

Is it possible to have a summary added to the OP? Or was the white XL the only news? I forgot to watch this but did spot the thread about the white XL.

El Capitan Todd
Shibata winner once again.
Fire emblem in the second quarter is the only bad news.
But I really hope they'll go ahead with this policy of localizing a lot of things.
Now, go on with Code of princess and Etrian Oddissey! :)

A bit disapointed for no Bravely Default or Layton x Wright, but this also had great news, can't wait for Fallblox and the Level 5 e-shop games.

NoE have been consistently better than NoA on Wii as well. We got Pikmin 2 as well as Xenoblade etc.

In the end those were released in the US, too. From the top of my head, the only games the US actually missed are Another Code R (damn shame), Pandora's Tower, Project Zero 2 Wii and Disaster.
On the other hand we missed Trauma Team, Excitebots, Arc Rise Fantasia and Castle Shikigami 3, but I guess most of those would have never brought over by Nintendo anyway.

I remember "Großostheim" being the first area in the German version Secret Of Evermore for the SNES; and I remember seeing the Konami building when I went to Frankfurt earlier this summer. Next time I will crash into Shibata's office

Currently polling second in Australia's federal election (first in the Gold Coast), this feral may one day be your Bogan King.
AU$69.99 for Star Fox, Mario Kart, 3D Land, and Zelda. Fucking Nintendo.

What is LM about?

Edit:

Liberation Maiden (解放少女 Kaihō Shōjo?) is Goichi Suda's contribution to Guild01. In this shooter game, an invading country is stealing all of Japan's energy. The player controls Shoko,[10] a high school girl who became President of Japan after her father's assassination, as she enters the mech Kaihoki to fight back.[4] It features animated cutscenes created by Studio BONES.[11]
