I don't know how well a demo would work for Little Inferno. It's an atmospheric, story-driven toy. It's worth that much.

It's not really a demoable game. It'd be like releasing a demo of Noby Noby Boy.

listen to the mad man
canada has no states
But I thought all games should be universally required to have demos full stop that's one of the things Nintendo was doing horribly wrong with the online.
Oh, I hope we get Mega Man 2 in the states relatively soon. I've been waiting for that.
It's due in the states this coming Thursday.
only the state of being awesome
It's permanent too.

Went down to $9.99 in the states.
I hope it's not like Puddle where it's in Europe for 2 months before it finally comes here. Honestly, I'm more interested in The Pinball Arcade but since Zen is first, I'm sure I'll pick up a few of those tables. Next week would be lovely but who knows. They say "very soon" like Toki Tori, which has been "very soon" since November. Shrugs.
So dumb.
Right now, before Rayman and Lego City hit and after the initial wave of titles, you've got a perfect opportunity to capture a huge swathe of the audience with a budget price.
I'm not huge into musou games but for £20, I would definitely have bought it to support the notion of eShop retail releases. Now it will be a bomb > pull support situation.

Not actually that important
Great price for the Sonic Racing game
I see 40? GREAT price?! :O Do games normally costs much more than that?! Never checked because although I'd like to go DD for online-centric games I always end up finding those games at close to half their RRP just a month after release.
Also I think Sonic Racing T has a lowered RRP, since the Limited Edition is on preorder on Amazon UK for £23.50
YES YES YES
Mega Man 2 on 3DS at 60Hz in EU finally!! :Q
What's special about that limited edition?
I have an odd question for everyone...
I just traded for an Unchained Blades eShop code for my 3DS... and the code works (just downloaded the game), but I am left with a question...
Does anyone know WHERE an eShop code for Unchained Blades could have come from? eShop codes aren't being sold anywhere at the moment, are they?
(Now I'm curious as to whether I'll get any Club Nintendo coins or not...)

The publisher gets a bunch of codes to hand out to reviewers and other promotional purposes. They're not allowed to sell them, but someone could have gotten a code in some kind of promotional give-away and decided to trade it. It's a limited amount though and I'm not really sure if you can get more.

How much are the tables in the Wii U version?
In US dollars, Zen Pinball 2's tables have been $2.50 and $3 a piece on Playstation platform.
I thought so... I was fairly sure it was impossible to buy download codes for eShop games at the moment.
I did get CN points, though!
That game was announced for release on the eShop for Thursday. Why two days later than the other versions, I haven't a clue.
Lame. When did the Cave go up?

Probably has something to do with time restrictions like other 18+ rated titles.
Basicly 1 day later and then at midnight, wich technicly makes it the next day.
Not for those in the UK though.
Am i still making sense?

It went up Tuesday the 24th, which would suggest that you should be taking your issues up with Tecmo-Koei.
Everything you mentioned has a Wii U version. They don't care about the 3DS anymore. :'(
$2.50 is too much for a pinball table now?
Some people can't recognize any form of DLC as being okay, unless it's free.
Exactly, the pricing is good. And the game also gives you the choice to buy whatever table you want.

Nintendo does midnight launches for their own games but I dunno about 3rd party stuff?

The Cave was out at Midnight
That was weird since The Cave isn't a retail game or anything. Just a regular old eShop game.

I love the age we live in with game prices, remember when Super Nintendo games pushed 60 bucks, I'm in Australia and I think some of them like Mario Allstars where near the $150 mark.
I've been waiting for someone to say Balloon flight is overpriced at .30c

Finished Witch's Cat with all platinum medals at 12 hours. Though if you don't care about the medals it will probably take half that.
If Nintendo really wanted to celebrate the Famicom/run a stealth Ambassador program they'd have given it away for free/given us a free pass for the entire future VC library.

listen to the mad man
I can make the case for that. Balloon Trip mode in Nintendoland is more enjoyable and more substantial than Balloon Flight, and 99% of the people buying Balloon Fight probably have Nintendoland, so they should play that instead.
I mean, I still bought Balloon Fight, but I think I'm aware that I'd rather play Nintendoland.
It's not overpriced per say, but I definitely paid 30 cents too much for that trash game.
And I'd rather play New Super Mario Bros. U than Nintendo Land. So what? They're different games.
I know why you've misunderstood but the Balloon Trip Breeze game in Nintendoland is a direct relation to Balloon Fight. If you wanted to, you could argue it's practically the same game.
And I would rather play Balloon Fight than nearly any Mario game. And I'd rather play Joust than its inferior Zynga-style ripoff (though Balloon Trip is awesome and pretty original).
Not only would I rather, but I actually have played them in those ratios: since Balloon Fight came out on the eReader, I've put more time into it than any Mario except 64 DS. And I've played Joust for more hours than any game in my life except for a few RPGs and Igavanias.
So, you know, diff'rent strokes.
Balloon Trip is only half of Balloon Fight. The better half, I admit.
