[tolkir]

Well, people, this is, probably, my last Nintendo Downloads thread. I have a new job and no much time to play, navigate NeoGAF and make the thread.
With new console on the horizon, it will be many updates next months, it's better to leave it to someone else.

So, if someone wants to do the thread monthly, it can do it happily. PM or post here to be sure who is before January.
If nobody wants it, I'll try to do it but it will be very poor surely.

 

[PtM]

Again, a reminder for AU, DE, NZ: Adventure Bar Story and Mercenaries Saga 2 are out (today).

Good job, tolkir. God speed.

 

[Jo Shishido's Cheeks]

tolkir thanks a lot for all you've done for us

 

[Zonic]

Tis the season for......maybe some good Xmas sales, fa la la la la?

& props to tolkir for making these every month.

 

[foltzie1]

[Niraj]

Nintendo eShop on Nintendo 3DS

- Super Mario Maker for Nintendo 3DS – Get ready to play a near-infinite number of side-scrolling 2D Mario courses anytime, anywhere! Earn in-game medals in 100 built-in courses and access recommended courses from the Super Mario Maker game on the Wii U console. Plus, design courses and share them with other players via the StreetPass feature and local wireless. The Super Mario Maker for Nintendo 3DS game will be available on Dec. 2. Click here to watch the trailer.
- Swapdoodle – Just in case you missed it, the Swapdoodle game is now available. Swapdoodle is an easy way to write messages, draw 3D pictures and share them with your Nintendo 3DS friends. Swapping doodles is a snap thanks to stamps based on the icons of played games and your Mii character. You can also purchase in-game add-on packs that have doodle lessons of Nintendo characters!

Virtual Console on Wii U

- Advance Wars: Dual Strike – On the heels of its last defeat, the nefarious Black Hole Army has fallen under the control of a deadly new commanding officer. He has sent its new COs to attack the nations of Wars World once again, and it’s up to the allied armies of Orange Star, Blue Moon, Yellow Comet and Green Earth to put an end to Black Hole once and for all. In this classic Nintendo DS strategy game, players lead their new Commanding Officers to fend off the Black Hole Army’s latest invasion. With massive battles that sweep across both screens, the Advance Wars: Dual Strike game will change the face of dual-screen warfare forever.

[Thequietone]

Thank you, Tolkir.


Anyone else still not getting the upgrade price for Majora's Mask?

 

[bulletbill10]

Thanks Tolkir, and all the usual folks for posting the lists each week!

 

[Maiden Voyage]

I have a 30% off coupon which should I pick: Mario & Luigi Paper Jam or Kirby Triple Deluxe?

Have you played Mario and Luigi or Kirby games before and if so, which ones and how did you like them?

 

[Maiden Voyage]

Have you played Mario and Luigi or Kirby games before and if so, which ones and how did you like them?

No and Yes. Kirby games back in the NES and SNES era and one GBA game. Can't remember either.

I loved The paper mario game on the Wii(?).

I think I would truly enjoy both games just not sure which one to grab.

 

[Fewr]

Isn't Paper Jam already discounted as part of the cyber deal?
It's also -40% off I think (not sure at all)

 

[Ondore]

That's Dream Team (2013). Sounds like the My Nintendo birthday deal.

 

[Maiden Voyage]

I picked up Mario & Luigi. I'll wind up picking up Kirby at some point too.

 

[Fewr]

I pícked that too for my birthday discount. *high five*

 

[Aostia]

When are the Sonic deals expiring on EU WIIU?

 

[Ondore]

8 December.

 

[SMD]

Is Sonic Lost World worth getting?

 

[Pokemaniac]

Is Sonic Lost World worth getting?

Personally, I found it thoroughly underwhelming. The level design was pretty meh and the controls simply don't work well. Even compared to other Sonic games it's not very good.

I'm possibly not the best person to be rating this game, though. I tend to find Sonic kind of mediocre at best.

The only Sonic game I've enjoyed since 3&K is Generations, so...

 

[bulletbill10]

Nintendo Everything is saying that F-Zero X was updated on Wii U to improve the controls. For those of you that were holding off because of that, maybe time to rethink!

 

[PtM]

F-Zero X's deadzone got patched out a bit:

Majora's Mask discount price has finally been fixed! I received the upgrade discount price and I am currently downloading

Kind of pathetic that Miiverse had to explode for then to notice the problem...

I'm sorry, I did mean to get back to you sooner. I hope you'll enjoy both games. Kirby is a traditional Kirby platformer incredibly jazzed up and M&L is IMO a wonderful entry in that Mario RPG series. If your previous Paper Mario gaming was only Super Paper Mario on the Wii you may be surprised by the turn-based battles but I hope you enjoy them. The game is endlessly creative.

Oh, I forgot it was Paper Jam and not Dream Team. I did like Paper Jam a whole lot, though I preferred DT. So it's the one I'd recommend playing first of the two in that sense. Glad you're enjoying it and hope you continue to do so!

That reminds me, I still haven't finished the 2nd one yet...

 

[dno_1966]

I've just had a go on the updated F-Zero X and while it is vastly improved and at least playable now, it isn't quite as good as I remember it on the N64 controller. Still a fantastic game though.

I noticed Sin and Punishment is available too, off to download it now...

 

[maxcriden]

Selfishly cross-posting just in case anyone can help me out

WTB

I'm in the US, where this was never released. Is there a kind GAFer out there with a spare Club Nintendo Captain Toad Lamp willing to sell at sub-eBay prices? I'd like to get this for my wife as a gift but I don't think she would be keen on me spending those eBay prices. Thank you.
