Managed to get all pikachu cosplay badges in all of my free plays today!

 

[JazzmanZ]

Try to grab them and then tell me how excited you are.

Least today had some bitchin new Gliscor badges

 

[Kolma]

Try to grab them and then tell me how excited you are.

Already did :3
With 15 plays got the animal crossing arcade badges and the Pikachu badges (along with my free play from Baito and free play from the practice badges)

 

[Aveyn Knight]

Nailed the Nikki and Ashley halloween panel.

Somehow Nikki got glued to the left side of my grabber and totally blitzed the panel on my first go.

Only Ashely remained in the aftermath, but she got stuck in one of the holes so I used up my remaining two free goes to pull her out.

Bonus theme this week in NA is Animal Crossing: Island Getaway.

How the FUCK can I get the moon in the Majora's mask panel? Fucking impossible....

Some tips: https://youtu.be/SB1dQjYmT-k?t=2m30s

I seem to remember clearing it out in one move during practice using a similar technique. Try to aim for Majora's mask and hope that it knocks off the Goron and Deku masks. Then pray that you hit the Moon on the way up and hope its rolling momentum is enough to push the remaining masks into the chute. I think I just got really lucky though, because I haven't able to replicate it.

 

[JoeM86]

Ack. I need to pay more attention to this thread for US stuff. Almost missed Pokémon Panels :/

This week, in Japan

Animal Crossing

Pokémon

Also a note from Baito
"By the way, this year it's 20 years since Pokemon was first released!" "To celebrate this 20th anniversary, we're going to do a Pokemon campaign month! We're planning on new releases in rapid succession!"

 

[JazzmanZ]

I really do hope they plan on doing all the Pokemon.

too bad the 3DS can't handle that many badges

There's currently 310 Pokémon badges including alt forms and weird seasonal badges

 

[Forkball]

I want the Pokemon sprites. Sprites always look better and take up most of the area in each block.

I got Octillery today. OH BOY.

Today in Europe's practice arcade, did the Bunny make a joke about Ridley being to big!? I went a bit to fast and I think he made that joke!

Goddamn that's amazing!

Edit: So this one has also happened!

We just need a crawling joke and we're good.

I don't remember the exact wording but yes!

 

[Schadenfreude]

Got all the Pikachu Cosplay badges today too. What theme would go really well with them?

 

[Effigenius]

Got all the Majora's mask badges today (the one with the moon and four main masks)

 

[illusionary]

Referring to today's offerings for Europe, that's the sort of practice catcher that we need to see more of! It's the one with Super Mario blocks stacked up between two ledges - and just jamming the catcher pretty much right down the middle with clear the lot (15 badges) if you're lucky! I messed up a couple of my tries slightly, but still cleared it twice over.

I only got one 'bonus' badge out of those, but that was still enough for five free plays and allowed me to complete two Mario sets from scratch with the 'live' catchers. It's just a shame that there were no Zelda badges to use them against today!

How may times did it take you to get the moon?

Somewhere in the Twitter/YouTube-verse, Etika is crying.

 

[rainking187]

I don't know how people are getting so many free plays, I average between 0-1 a day. I haven't seen one of the badges that give you three free plays in close to a month, and I haven't seen one of the ones that give you one free play in over a week.

 

[Shiggy]

Today's training stage was pretty easy, in each of the five rounds I got all. Of course, I didn't get any of the red bonuses - I never get those.

So today I had 8 free plays. Normally it's just 1 or 2.

Is this you?

 

[L.O.R.D]

Is this you?

61 dummy badges give you 6 free plays
And the red one in EU gives you 2 free plays.

But you can't get 61 dummy badges unless...

 

[TheMoon]

note how the final screen still has that one badge sticking to the corner there. so it wasn't even fully cleared.

15 badges
5 practice tries
5 x 15 = 75

so you'd had to have leftover dummy badges from the previous days.

Mine didn't have any bonus badges, btw. I guess that's random then if dude in the pic got 8 free plays with just 61 badges?

I love how he says "Ridley is too big!" in the practice catcher.

 

[Effigenius]

5. Once I got everything else, it rolled down.

 

[Linkstrikesback]

Today's Europe training stage was easy. Have the claw press down on the centre of the pile and every thing collapses. 7 free plays, never getting that in one go ever again.

 

[-shadow-]

I managed to get seven plays also, two of which were because of the bonus play. I messed up on one try and managed to get everything stuck in the gap. But still fifty practice badges is great!

"a" bonus play.

they have to be random because I got none and had two full clears.

 

[Anustart]

Managed to get 4 of the 5 punch out badges with my 1 free play. Not bad

 

[Oxx]

66 dummy badges. Feels good man.

Still not going to put any money in.

 

[maxcriden]

I got some cute frog/penguin Pokémon the other day. What were they? It was the bomb crane game with Piplup in it.

 

[Clov]

Are the servers down for anyone else right now? I need to get my daily badge catching in!

 

[WiiRevolution1]

Yes.

And I quit right before a dungeon in Majora's Mask, so if I go back, I may miss out on badges today but I wanna play MM. #firstworldproblems

Its been down for maintenance for almost two hours now. ._.

 

[JazzmanZ]

Yeah Nintendo put some of the cool Kirby badges locked in a final day, it's not like I wanted them or anything

Those are Shellos from Gen 4

Oh! awesome. They're cute. Thank you Jazz!

 

[JazzmanZ]

Todays American update has a free play and a bunch of new Zelda wind waker badges.

Wonder if we'll get those Fire emblem fates badges later this month.

 

[JoeM86]

[NOLA_Gaffer]

Oh fuck, do want those pixel badges.

 

[Putyouinmyoven]

Completed the set of SNES badges. Feels good.

 

[Zonic]

OH GOD MORE PIXEL BADGES. I need those GBA ones, being a 3DS Ambassador.

What are the other 2 GBA carts? I notice Super Mario Advance: SMB2 & I think next to it is Rhythm Tengoku.

 

[TheGreatMightyPoo]

I had to get Link's grandma or else she would look at me in my dreams like she did when he was leaving.

I think the yellow one is a NES Classic of Super Mario Bros. or something. Famicom Minis used both Yellow and Brown cartridges.

Unfortunately I'm out of free tries to check today

 

[Chopper]

GBA badges! Suh-weet!

 

[-shadow-]

Wow, these two are outright evil if you don't pay (and probably even if you do).

 

[pHand]

The red one is the Famicom Mini Super Mario Bros. The yellow one looks like Kid Icarus.

It's not the Super Mario Bros. Famicom Mini Cart. The one I bought looks more like the one on the far right.

The red one is the Famicom Mini Super Mario Bros. The yellow one looks like Kid Icarus.
