Yeah, I think that was mentioned a week ago. Bayou Billy, I heard was seriously hard, but I think it also supported the Zapper & more new VC titles that weren't on the Wii.

I hope Drill Dozer keeps its rumble feature.

I never even thought about Drill Dozer rumble. I hope it does!

Speaking of the Zapper, I wonder if the Virtual Console light gun tech would work on Super Scope games, which as a group are definitely the better titles.

Ugh, I want it but $25 Canadian spacebucks is brutal. D:

I think it's absolutely worth it. Such a pleasant surprise.

It's a puzzle game with sci-fi elements "a la Portal". I'm really enjoying the attention for detail and the mysterious atmosphere. The mechanics are also fresh and original. I'm about 2/3 into it and so far it's one of my favourite experiences on eShop.

pro-tip for next time: punch story of seasons neogaf ot into google and it'll be the first thing that comes up^^

Whether or not he used the google search, he already said he couldn't find it and someone else already helped him by actually answering his question.

Protip: The google search doesn't always work as well as it should. I can think of more than a few OTs that didn't pull for me when using the SITE:NEOGAF.COM search. Not sure if it's browser related or maybe because certain threads don't get crawled or ranked on google as quickly as others, but not every OT pulls as the first result.

Cool, figured 3D Fantasy Zone II would come out next week. Sega seems to aim for the middle of the month with these.

Edit: Wonder what the "Super Spring Sale" will have.

& next week is Donkey Kong 64, a title that wasn't on the original VC because we all thought the Jetpac arcade game prevented Nintendo from re-releasing it due to it being owned by Rare, now owned by Microsoft.

& the week after THAT, we get Mario Kart DS.

........& THEN, the week after THAT WEEK, we get Paper Mario.

So each week this month, we're getting a DS or N64 game.

Yeah I didn't notice that, was referring to EU. Warioware Touched is a good one, as is Yoshi. Mario Kart DS was a weeeeeeird choice though. That means they don't mind releasing inferior versions, hope we get Animal Crossing: Wild World.

Just ASA this week because my memory card doesn't have room for Xenoblade 3D right now and I'm sitting it out until I finish another giant RPG.

Watch Dogs... well, it made it out of the fiscal year at full price. That's about three months longer than I expected.

I already have WarioWare Touched! with no reason to re-buy.

That said, I'm curious about DS Virtual Console impressions in general.

No N64 or DS games next week is no biggie (if that happens). We have Pandora's Tower to cover us, at 25% off too.

Lol. Thanks. I was hoping it would be one of the $7.99 DS releases. I'm a bit surprised.

Yeah, which makes me wonder what games actually will get knocked down to that price point.

Only DS game from Nintendo I can think of that is even simpler than TnG is, like, Electroplankton.
