cool thanks



Do you think its impossible to transfer saves or is Nintendo just being lazy?

After SudokuHax, Nintendo now encrypts/signs the saves using the key that is unique to each DSi/3DS unit (just like they do with the games themselves) so they cannot be tampered with after being exported to the SD card. Therefore, they cannot be read by a different system.

While there are some ways saves could be transferred (aka: the DSi could upload the decrypted save to a Nintendo server using a secure connection, and the 3DS would download it the same way), I don't think this will ever happen in order to prevent hackers from using the DSi as a trojan horse to hack the 3DS, if the DSi ever becomes fully compromised.

When do you guys think the 3DS to 3DS transfer will be available?

I think it's pretty ridiculous that it wasn't unlocked when the big update rolled in :\

And will it include Streetpass and Activity Log data? That's what I want to know...

Where did you hear that? Other than the D3 game and Witch's Cat I haven't heard any news on this weeks releases. Looks like I'm going to have to add more points on which classics they are.

Probably when there's enough reason to switch. Like new color lineup.

On the one hand, yay, it's the first Kirby, but on the other, it's a *tiny* game, A couple of hours at the very most. Pretty sure an experienced player could get through it in less than an hour.

KDL2, though, that's a pretty meaty affair.

Edit: Speedrun in just over 12 minutes: http://www.archive.org/details/KirbyDreamLand_1207

Yeah, Kirby's Dreamland is a very short game and I am only buying it for nostalgias sake since I played it to death back then. The sequel is really awesome though :)

When you do a DSi > 3DS transfer can you pick and choose what you want to move or does it have to be everything?
Click to expand...

You can, but you have to select an transfer every game individually then.

You just named an additional 2 more 3d apps that are being added this week(beyond everything else that is up there)

They finally added streaming videos for most (all?) retail games. Seems only Nintendo's are 3D: 3rd parties just dumped their youtube trailers there.

I didn't even realize that the Xevious 3D Classic was out in Japan, and they also have a Mega Man title on virtual console! Seriously, what gives with these release schedule discrepancies per territory? When the publishers are the same worldwide and the titles are without licensing issues (like the ones in question), what the hell is the hold up?

So arbitrary...

Yeah, the streams are pretty choppy for me. Only the Pokedex 3D thing ran smoothly. And yeah, it's pretty disappointing that all the third-party vids only run in 2D. Was hoping to get an idea of what Overclocked looks like in 3D.

As an aside, wasn't the original Devil Survivor rated M? It's been a while since I played it.

Doesn't Overclocked have its main gameplay on the bottom screen? No 3D I thought for that one...

NoJ, NoA, and NoE eShops have different people running them that decide what goes up.

Good to know, I'm thinking I'd like to keep Photo Dojo and Pictobits on my XL as Photo Dojo is best seen on a big screen and Pictobits is just downright easier to play on the bigger screen.

And it's arbitrary. There's no guarantee for any kind of parity and the Wii's shop is obviously the evidence for that. This is just an example, but technically right now there's no guarantee we'd ever see something like Xevious 3D here. They just do whatever.

The audio and video quality for streaming videos in the eshop is so bad is actually makes the games less appealing.

About Overclocked, that does kinds suck. Just another in a long list of "release window" low quality ports and rush jobs.

All right we got gargoyles quest here in Japan today for the nice price of 400 yen!

All is right with the world.


Also apparently vector racing is being ported to eshop with a release date this July(in Japan)

seems like NoA thinks were all still flat broke or something. even the Euro store shitted on us last week when they got Double Dragon.

Like this one guy on GameFAQs posted, they could release a strong title every week for at least the Gameboy for 2 years straight. dont know why they're sitting on their hands with this. press the button and let us throw our money at you.....

Going to buy Kirby and Zelda later this week.

I don't have any problem using a credit card, but does anyone know when the cards will be available in Europe?

What?! So, then what the heck is the purpose of even bringing it to 3DS?
Click to expand...
The game has voice acting now, due to the larger 3DS carts, and updated the 2D art and UI to make use of the higher resolution. Pretty much the same treatment a DS->PSP port would get (but easier to make since they still have two screens). With the bonus that 3DS carts cannot be pirated (games like Devil Survivor are the most affected).

The 3D videos are very compressed, yes, but the 2D ones are completely fine. Smooth framerate and I barely see any compression artifacts.

As far as I'm aware no word yet, but the local Gamestop said they'd heard nothing except that the eshop was out and the older points cards wouldn't function with it.

So...I doubt anytime soon.

If I own Kirby Superstar Ultra, then I have no need to buy Kirby's Dreamland, do I?

I actually agree with this, as after the amazing Kirby Superstar Ultra, Kirby's Dreamland is going to seem like a horrible game.
