Krusty's Super Fun House is easily one of the better Simpsons games--it's not actually good, mind you, but most others are simply terrible.

Actually been considering making a Krusty's Fun House clone for the Wii U, could be good with the stylus controls. That'd be after my first game is out, mind. (Just need a bit of money now to make that happen.. :( )

Also odd that we have theme news before the PR.

I want Mario & Wario to come out on the VC using stylus control

Not quite the PR we're used to, but it'll have to do for now:

New Nintendo 3DS and New Nintendo 3DS XL: The latest additions to the Nintendo 3DS family feature new control options, face-tracking 3D technology, built-in amiibo functionality, and enhanced processing power. New Nintendo 3DS is compact and light, with a screen 1.2 times bigger than the original Nintendo 3DS and has the option of extra customisation using replaceable cover plates. New Nintendo 3DS XL boasts a luxury look and a 4.88 inch screen for even more dynamic and immersive gameplay. A free update will also be released on 10th February for Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS that will enable amiibo from the Super Smash Bros. Collection to be used with the new systems.

The Legend of Zelda: Majora's Mask 3D: The handheld remake of the beloved, dark and twisted Nintendo 64 game launches exclusively for Nintendo 3DS family of systems.

New Nintendo 3DS XL Majora's Mask 3D Edition*: A limited edition hardware bundle that includes a copy of The Legend of Zelda: Majora's Mask 3D and a New Nintendo 3DS XL system covered in artwork inspired by the game.

The Legend of Zelda: Majora's Mask 3D Special Edition: A limited edition software offering which includes a copy of the game in its standalone packaging, a specially-designed SteelBookTM, a pin badge and a double-sided poster.

Monster Hunter 4 Ultimate: As players explore the world of Monster Hunter 4 Ultimate, they will face off against many ferocious enemies with up to three other friends locally or, for the first time on Nintendo 3DS, online using a wireless broadband Internet connection. Ahead of launch day fans should check out Nintendo eShop and get their hands on the demo, to brush up their skills ready for the battle ahead.

New Nintendo 3DS XL Monster Hunter 4 Ultimate Edition: A limited edition hardware bundle that includes a copy of Monster Hunter 4 Ultimate and a New Nintendo 3DS XL system with an iconic emblem from the game on its cover.

IronFall: Invasion: A three-year project by independent developers VD-DEV, IronFall: Invasion brings fast-paced single-player and six-person local & online multiplayer shooting action, with the gameplay perfectly suited for using the C Stick of New Nintendo 3DS and New Nintendo 3DS XL.

Kirby Fighters Deluxe: Based on the popular battle mode in Kirby: Triple Deluxe, this standalone 4-player battle action game contains expanded gameplay, new arenas and the ability to play as a team.

Dedede's Drum Dash Deluxe: Bounce to the beat of catchy Kirby tunes playing as Kirby's long-time rival King Dedede. This standalone rhythm action game includes content not found in Kirby: Triple Deluxe including all-new stages and new obstacles.

Ace Combat Assault Horizon Legacy +: Play as the legendary pilot Phoenix and control fighter jets that exist in real-life. The game includes compatibility with the New Nintendo 3DS system's C Stick and ZR/ZL buttons for total control, while certain amiibo unlock aircraft skins themed after characters like Captain Falcon, Samus, Bowser and more.

Nintendo Anime Channel: A new video-on-demand service offering fans the chance to stream anime series from the likes of Pokémon, Kirby, and Inazuma Eleven, with new content being added regularly. Access to the service is granted simply by downloading a free application from Nintendo eShop.

New Themes for Nintendo 3DS HOME Menu: Fans looking to spruce up their HOME Menu with a new theme are in luck! New Basic and Simple Colour Set themes can be downloaded for free from the Theme Shop which can be accessed through the HOME Menu settings on your Nintendo 3DS system. Those purchasing either The Legend of Zelda: Majora's Mask 3D, Monster Hunter 4 Ultimate or Ace Combat Assault Horizon Legacy+ will receive a free bonus theme download if purchased from Nintendo eShop, with additional themes available for purchase.

It's a PR about the launch of the New Nintendo 3DS, not the usual eShop PR. So it's not surprising it's missing stuff.

Not sure when it'll come, though.
 
Hope that is a special PR and NOE have not turned into NOA with shitty PRs that don't mention prices or half of the games.

I was on the 3DS eShop today and the sales section is looking bleak and also, on the 5th a Majora's Mask 3d trailer download went up on the eShop. Dedede's Drum Dash Deluxe is €7 (same for Kirby Fighters).

Rayman 3d is a surprisingly good port. Why have I been hearing it's shit for so long? The current $7.50 eShop price is great.
It really got shat upon at launch because it had performance issues. A firmware update resolved that for this and a few other games (including Bit.Trip Runner). Can't remember which firmware it was though.

I need these. NEED.

Fans looking to spruce up their HOME Menu with a new theme are in luck! New Basic and Simple Colour Set themes can be downloaded for free from the Theme Shop which can be accessed through the HOME Menu settings on your Nintendo 3DS system.
Did EU not already have the Basic Red, Blue, Yellow, Pink, and Black themes or are these presumably new ones?

Those purchasing either The Legend of Zelda: Majora's Mask 3D, Monster Hunter 4 Ultimate or Ace Combat Assault Horizon Legacy+ will receive a free bonus theme download if purchased from Nintendo eShop, with additional themes available for purchase.
If this is offered by NA I really hope people who bought the MH4U n3DS aren't left out.
 
Saw the trailer for Blek. Looks neat. Has anyone played it on an iPad or simliar? I'm thinking about buying it.

I played it on my phone and didn't enjoy it very much. The early levels were fine and the idea is neat, but I kind of hit a wall with levels wanting me to do more complicated patterns but never really teaching me how.

I paid only 0.99 and didn't really bother to give it another chance after that since it's a phone game, so this is not a comprehensive review or anything.

If all DLC came tied to $13 figurines, I'd consider all DLC to be free
...what the hell am i looking at ? This looks so bad :-/

Come on, not even funny as a joke. :/

Stop being such a Debbie Downer TheMoon! :) Nothing wrong with hoping for a Terranigma release even if it's near imposible for it to happen.

Besides you're getting to the top spot of my wall of shame that I'll make when the game gets announced... bwahahaha

Is this RRH game for Wii U? :eek:

Now I understand why Steins;Gate and Clannad aren't released on Wii U.

They can't compete against Red Riding Hood.

Yes. Already out in NA, out this week in Europe.

Now I understand why Steins;Gate and Clannad aren't released on Wii U.

They can't compete against Red Riding Hood.

I was talking with a friend this past weekend and he was showing me some absurd apps/games for android (one like a "Pang" clone but with some spanish politicians) and the revenues that these apps generated... and damn, It was good money! :eek:

Maybe I'll get into this and make a "Terranigma: Believe version" just to make TheMoon upset ;)

This is a good question. This isn't much of an answer though:

Games do need more space than they take up to install. However, the eShop should list the space needed for installation in this case. Part of me also wonders if Nintendo use hard drive manufacturers gigabytes (this is why a 1tb drive has something like 934gb of space) somewhere along the line.
 
I haven't played it. But I hear the DS version, that came out a year after DS launched, is much much better. Which is why you hear bad things about it. But again, I only played the DS version, which I thought was good, and haven't tried the 3DS version.

The DS version is a port of the Ps1 version of the game, while the 3DS version is a port of the Dreamcast version. The 3DS game got shat on near launch because of some frame rate hiccups. (They're both 60, I believe, but the 3DS version had some slowdown issues) Which may now be resolved?

Thanks!

Though looking back, nothing on this page or previous ones say IronFall comes out Friday.

The PR is at the top of the page. Though to be fair it's not explicit in that it says all the mentioned things are out on N3DS launch day.

This bit is missing from the PR post:

FRIDAY 13TH - UNLUCKY FOR SOME BUT NOT FOR NINTENDO HANDHELD FANS WITH NEW CONSOLES, BUNDLES, GAMES & FREE THEMES LAUNCHING

Avalanche of new releases include New Nintendo 3DS and New Nintendo 3DS XL systems, The Legend of Zelda: Majora's Mask 3D, Monster Hunter 4 Ultimate, plus more!

9th February 2015 - While Friday 13th is considered by many to be a day shrouded in superstition and misfortune, Nintendo is aiming to overturn this notion and bring good fortune to European handheld gaming fans this coming Friday, #Nintendo3DSDay, with a slew of new hardware and software releases.

At a time when the Nintendo 3DS family of systems has now sold over 50 million hardware units globally, the latest additions to the family, New Nintendo 3DS and New Nintendo 3DS XL, make their European debut on Friday 13th alongside two major software releases - The Legend of Zelda: Majora's Mask 3D and Capcom(r)'s Monster Hunter 4 Ultimate. Both titles are playable on all Nintendo 3DS systems, but feature added functionality when experienced on New Nintendo 3DS and New Nintendo 3DS XL, such as super-stable 3D and enhanced camera controls using the C Stick. Two limited edition hardware bundles, New Nintendo 3DS XL Majora's Mask 3D Edition and New Nintendo 3DS XL Monster Hunter 4 Ultimate Edition** will also launch on Friday to celebrate these highly-anticipated titles.

Meanwhile, exclusively on Nintendo eShop, IronFall: Invasion, an intense single-player and six-person local & online multiplayer action-shooter from three talented developers launches alongside familiar faces in Kirby Fighters Deluxe and Dedede's Drum Dash Deluxe. In addition, a free video-on-demand streaming service named Nintendo Anime Channel becomes available for download from Nintendo eShop, with anime series from the likes of Kirby, Pokémon, and Inazuma Eleven.

Laurent Fischer, Managing Director, European Marketing & PR at Nintendo of Europe, commented: "We are delighted to be releasing such an extensive Nintendo 3DS hardware and software line-up, and hope this offering demonstrates our commitment to providing the best and most varied gameplay experiences possible for handheld gaming fans."

I remember that title. Was kinda fun.

My favorite Simpson game will always be The Simpsons: Hit & Run for GCN. Now that was a great open-world game! Fun to just drive randomly and mess around too.

Turns out I could buy the n3DS next week with an new 32GB SD-card and charging station but without a new game. Wouldn't need it but SMT IV in proper 3D, faceplates and the coloured buttons are starting to convince me.
Help me, NintenGAF!

If you care about the Sega 3D Classics, we're getting 3D Fantasy Zone this week.

Edit: OOH, you mean part of the Atlus sale, not "outside" of the Atlus sale. I misread your post. Let me grab my 3DS & see, but I feel like it'll be the usual games.

Yeah, just checked & can confirm the above. It's the usual suspects being 50% off.

Most of those will hit $10 EVENTUALLY.
