Until I hear differently, I'm assuming $5.99 / $6.59 Canadian for BoxBoy tomorrow.

(Please, someone correct me quickly.)

Alright, so here is the compilation of Natsume Virtual Console news, they have been focusing mainly on GBA games, 8 games planned, 3 games revealed, Pocky and Rocky with Becky and the Metabot GBA games confirmed for release, all GBC games that are going to come out have come out and the first GBA release happens in early June.

:( What about Kemco? I'm much more interested in NES/SNES stuff than GBA, fair or not. I already have Friends of Mineral Town and Pocky and Rocky w/ Becky on cartridge.

I'd tune into your podcast, don't get me wrong, but I'm at the office right now so I can't.

Why yes, we talked about Kemco, the alliance that seems to be going well, there may be some snags in the localization of future titles as stuff like Death Match Love Comedy or Togabito no Senritsu seems to be out of their ratings zone. That is to say they are a family friendly company and wish to remain so but more Kemco titles do sound like they are on the way.

I'm so psyched about this, though. I doubt I'll buy too many DS games (I have a large tower of DS games to the left of me), but N64 ones may need to be done

Lasts until April 16th IIRC.

It's a clever promotion, not buy one get one free/half price - I really don't care about Mario Kart DS and if you have a Wii U you should probably have Mario Kart 8, but if I'm buying DK64, Warioware Touched and SM64 anyway, why not download it for free?

Really expected Pokémon Rumble World to have amiibo card support, especially given it's F2P. Would be another source of income for it.

I'm really starting to think gambling laws in the US and EU are what's holding it back.
Click to expand...
But from what I gather it's no more gambling than actual crane machines and those seem to be everywhere and mostly directed at children. Or maybe stuff like Puzzle and Dragons, etc, as well. If it's because of gambling laws, then it's an incredibly stupid thing to happen.

Apologies if this is in the wrong thread.

I'm looking to give away my OG 3DS to someone, I have my Nintendo ID setup and I have one game digitally downloaded plus some retail games.

Is there a way to delete my NNID but still retain the downloaded game?

Nope. The game is tied to the NNID forever.

As someone who already has Binding of Isaac on all the other formats and have played hundreds of hours of it.... I'm still oddly excited to be able to play it again lol.

Having it on my N3DS XL which I take everywhere is gonna be so awesome.

I really love the game, collecting the Achievements on the Xbox One one will be fun and gamepad play while doing something else on the Wii U is awesome too.

I was really surprised by how good SM64 looked on my TV.

Other than scaling and being fed through HDMI as opposed to composite cables, have they made any changes?

A little, I HATED it at launch.

I respected it later for what it meant and what it did, but it's still a game where every level is an ice level, Mario is wearing shoes with oil on them and he punches enemies. Yeuch.

Fair enough. I'll admit it's tough to go back to after playing more recent 3D mario games like the Galaxies. Though nostalgia for 64 has me by the balls.

I disagree. The Galaxy games are bottom-tier Mario games for me as well.

To quote a ranking I did in another topic a bit ago, for the 3D games:
64 >>> 3D World >> 3D Land >>>>>>>>>> Sunshine >>> Galaxy 2 > Galaxy 1


(Yes, I know I just said Sunshine was the worst above :þ)
