So anyone know if there are any positives to a 3DS Sonic Racing that outweigh the Wii U version?

I would have thought that the Wii U version would have better graphics while the 3DS version is on 3D and portable. lol talk about stating the obvious so sorry about that, but I don't know much else.

oh man, get excited. BEARSHARK IS COMING TOMORROW!!

No place is safe from BearShark. Not water. Not land. And now BearShark is even invading the third dimension. Starting Feb. 8, Nintendo is partnering with CollegeHumor.com to bring an original 3D animated program to Nintendo Video for the Nintendo 3DS system. BearShark is an animated series that follows a bear and shark tag-team as they cause hilarious mayhem over land and sea in their continued pursuit of a poor sap named Steve.

I wanted to buy and download Fist of the north star this afternoon to be able to play when my work is done... But that stupid "adult-game lock" is keeping me from it until tonight !

Danke schön, German laws. I hope that Nintendo soon having some office space in Switzerland will help lift that censorship for the rest of Europe...

They could at least put an age restriction, and identify the adults by their Nintendo ID. That's the point in charging a few cents for creating a kid NNID, to be able to separate the kids from the adults, no ?

Two copies sold? That's not a bomb guys, stop trolling!!!
3DS eShop is receiving lots of retail titles recently. Even brand new titles. That's something actually good. Maybe Europe is finally following the trend, with SASRT coming day and date with the retail version (no, wait, it's already available, even one day before the retail release:D )

I don't know if this is new, but I just downloaded directly the Fractured Soul demo and after the download finished, something was different: on the bottom screen there was a window titled "If you liked this game, you could like also" and Denpa Men & Heavy Fire listed. Something similar to Amazon, interesting...but I don't know if it's new or old. Mock at me if it's old. XD

Wants the largest console games publisher to avoid Nintendo's platforms.
Ok, this is getting beyond ridiculous at this point..

What's with the exclusion of Sonic All Stars Racing from the PL stores (both WiiU and 3DS), NOE?

Sonic Racing is even in today's Update Letter on the 3DS PL store, and yet Sonic Racing is nowhere to be found!

That's been there for some time now, I remember. Not really sure why I don't see it all the time, though.

Just picked up Mega Man 2.


I must own this fucking game on everything ever made in the history of everything. And I still love it.

I don't want to sound paranoid but the trailer for Mega Man 2 on the PAL eShop shows that the game has a tiny black border on the top of the screen. I noticed the same when playing Blaster Master NES and Ghosts 'N' Goblins (really noticeable). Don't NES games have the same vertical resolution as the 3DS (240 pixels) and would therefore completely fill up the screen vertically? Can anyone from the Americas confirm that this is how the games are supposed to look?
I have an XL, so it's more noticeable.
 
Well, I think the NES's internal renderer is 240 pixels, but didn't it tend to crop it to 224? I'm not particularly well-versed on the NES's specifications and limitations, admittedly.

Well, there's the obvious fact that it's a 3D portable version, and you can play with up to 7 other people via Download Play. It also has StreetPass challenges and features.

Dig Dug is coming to the 3DS eShop in North America next week at a price of $3.99. This is the first time a standard NES VC game has had a lower regular price than $4.99.

Doubly interesting is that Dig Dug NES was never released in the US, which typically would earn it an extra dollar "import tax."

I've only played the arcade version. How does the NES version compare with the arcade version? This & Donkey Kong were the two arcade games I played the most when I was growing up.
It's pretty good, actually! Maybe not 100% arcade accurate, but it's close, if I recall.
