Hm, not on Vita. Not sure about PC (although I didn't have a great time with that version, the controls weren't as responsive, I thought).

OlliOlli is great, happy that more people will get to play it.

I swear I heard freezing issues for that. Must be confusing myself with another game.

I played it pretty late (like, two months ago) so it was probably patched in the meantime and we're both right.

FE7 is great. Proof:

Just picked up Gunvolt since its on sale. Really damn good.

The only thing that bothers me is that gathering materials is a bit too up to chance. The Challenge rewards offset that a little bit.

Spent 250+ hours on this game on GBA. Will abuse the heck out of save states in Arenas, as that's where most of my time was spent on the GBA version but can do it now without the risk of losing 3 hours work!!!!!

That board/card game looks interesting. I'd imagine they might have expansion DLC most likely, if not just normal IAP stuff.

Ah yes, just did an interview with World of Keflings dev Ninjabee, I have to pass along some sad news for PAL owners, it seems like localization is in jeopardy in between the usual ratings shenanigans and the quote "dismal" sales of Keflings in North America.

I'm sure it would have done better if they didn't delay it a zillion times and bothered to promote it a little more, but them's the breaks.

Agreed, turned out they started development before Wii U launch and things got delayed as they added touchscreen features and revamped art. Also, they put the game only the sideline a few times due to contract work (like Disney Infinity).

Ninjabee worked on Disney Infinity? I thought that was Ninja Theory.

So hyped for Toad tomorrow.

Miss that Coming Soon section, though.

Some odds for VC releases by the end of the year:

DKC 3:1
Metroid ZM 12:1
Pop'n Twinbee: Rainbow Bell Adventures 75:1 :'(

Fine, I'll download the Sonic Boom demo.

Least the free Famicom theme deal will last a whole year. Maybe I'll get lucky and someone will give theirs away who doesn't want it.

I don't know how you release a port like Keflings both this late and this janky. The game is fun and all but holy hell it's unpolished for a port that's seen some two years worth of delays. And then they priced it at $15!

Please report in if you can glitch in the Sonic Boom demo. I wouldn't be surprised if they just disabled Knuckles in it

Attack on Titan Attacks.

So do we know if the free theme with physical games is from after registering it on Club Nintendo, or do you get it as a separate code?

I assume there's no need to ask if this game is good, or even if it's a good deal.
I just want to know where in the series this is. I know they don't have story, but I got confused with sequels, remakes and the rest.

EO IV is the latest mainline title in the series that's been released. EO:Untold is a remake of the first game that came out after EO IV. EO:Untold 2 is a remake of the second game but that has yet to arrive in NA.

From what I got out of the interview it seems like they treated the port like a side project and just got tired of working on it and just decided to release the thing.

Logged onto the 3DS eshop to grab NES Remix today and while I clearly didn't realize it isn't available until tomorrow I also didn't realize it was going to be $34.99 (CDN). What makes this entry worth nearly twice what the previous entries coat?! Nintendo's pricing just seems out of whack this week (Commander Toad as well).

It's a "Best of" the first two NES Remix games. Essentially NES Remix 1+2 is a better deal for the gaming content, but the 3DS has 1) leaderboards, 2) less lesser franchises, and 3) portability.

It's a compilation of both games. Minus all the games nobody cares about anyway. Plus new stuff (Speed Mario Bros) and Famicom Remix (harder) challenges.
