Whonami?

The pachinko company that used to make video games.

Been a while I visited these threads. I'm eyeing for Battle Cats, probably gonna buy it and Pokemon Yellow if I feel like it.

Edit: Is there actually any way to add eshop funds through PC's? I see the option to enter my CC details, but the page ain't letting me do it. I don't really wanna bother with the 3DS eshop, I hate it and I lost my stylus.

 

[Ondore]

If you're buying something on the website, you should have an option to add eShop cards during checkout.

Is there anything worth its price in My Nintendo America? I have 110 gold coins

I've got 170 and I'm tempted to get the Luigi DLC for Super Mario Bros U. If I do, no doubt something better comes out next month.

Is our WSJ bud teasing what I think he's teasing?

When you say something is coming "real soon," then you think that would come in...

(poll)

a few days

a week

a month

Naaaaah.... maybe?

He's definitely not teasing anything for Nintendo Downloads.

Couldn't think of where to post it lol. Wasn't going to make a thread over an assumption.

Edit: And to clarify I'm hoping he's teasing the NX unveiling.

Terranigma for VC confirmed then ;D hahaha

 

[Robin64]

To be fair, it has been stated before that this is also a general Nintendo chatter thread.

 

[tolkir]

Nintendo Downloads leaks is going to be the new trend.

#NDLeaks Turbografx VC next week in Europe

The WSJ writer was talking about the Japanese launch of Pokemon Go, btw.

Where do you see that being what he meant? And that's tomorrow, not even "a few days" but just one (if taking that literally).

 

[TheMoon]

It's far more likely he was hinting at Go than NX-anything

I just redeemed this month to get NSLU, it's awesome! So worth the price! But you have to already own NSMU for this DLC add-on.

If you need more coins there are some $1 games that on sale on WiiU that'll give you coins right now. I spent $5 and got 80 coins!

as with most indies, you'll have a date a week before it releases at best^^

 

[laserlaser]

$1 games tempting but i already have most of em on steam (and never played). not sure about double dipping for coins

 

[omg_mjd]

The New 3DS solid color face plates aren't rare in Japan are they? I asked a friend from work to get me either the orange or teal one and I'd hate to impose if they're hard to find.

 

[frankie_baby]

Can we expect a new SNES VC game for 3DSXL?

 

[Ondore]

I think Wind-Up Knight might be taking its place since it's New 3DS exclusive, but I'm not positive on that.

If you don't know about it now, no.

The theme isn't available anywhere yet (not even in Japan), so no one will know until 6PM today when the theme shop updates.

Wait, I think it's this one.

Sonic Boom 100% off if you own The Cave.

God effin dammit. Sonic Transformed finally goes on sale, and it's only in the US! Rage!

20% off Genesis titles on the Wii U

[Plinko]

Curious as to the sale on Sonic Transformed. That would be great for multiplayer with the kids, but the last few "sales" of it have still been pretty expensive.

 

[maxcriden]

Sonic Boom 100% off if you own The Cave.

I guess I'd pretty much have to take it, then. The Cave is a really under-appreciated eShop game....

Yes.

This is EU-wide, btw. Everyone gets this.

 

[Robin64]

Out of nowhere, EU has Metroid Prime Blast Ball up. For free.

Apparently up on the US eShop too.

 

[Ondore]

Yep, and it's the full game including online (until the game launches).

 

[PixyJunket]

Gotta Protectors (Protect Me Knight 2) was delayed a week, it'll be coming out 07/28 now.

I hope this one doesn't fall under the radar.

Dang, I was wondering why it wasn't on the shop. At least it's just a week.

Yeah, deciphering their tweet, I guess it has something to do with the manual/documentation, I know I've heard in the past that Nintendo is pretty strict regarding this.
