is this gaf impressions or just general jp impressions cause i wouldn't trust the latter. if they stem from places like 2chan or amazon.jp, they're pretty much worthless. i suspect mobile games did a number on skewing expectations toward games over there

PictoParty pulled from this week's line-up due to last-minute bug. Will come in late January

Definitely buying Drill Dozer.
Legend of Legacy looks alright but with so many JRPGs coming in the coming months I might not have time for it. Still, will give the demo a chance.

They're actually put to a good, unique use in this game, though!

No need to confirm this. It'll come, this is as obvious as a Mario game coming WW.
Just a reminder, the EU Devil Survivor Overclocked sale ends tomorrow (Thursday), ~16.00 CET. Not 100% on the exact time it ends so don't wait until the last second. The game has a 65% discount; from £29.99 (34.99) to 11.99 / £9.99. This is only the second time it has been on sale and you will most likely have to wait another year if you miss it. The game is definitely worth its full price but everybody loves discounts, right?
If you have the slightest interest in an amazing SRPG with a turn based battle system, and an intriguing story that deals with demons, technology and survival, be sure to check it out. Also be sure download the patch (v1.1.) in case it's not applied automatically.
Sadly the game is not available in Australia so you can't buy it if you have an Aussie NNID. If you haven't created a NNID yet you can buy it by switching to any of the EU countries in the System Settings but beware! If you ever create an Aussie NNID you will not be able to redownload the game. However, you will still be able to play it as long as you don't delete it from your system. Also be sure to only add the exact amount of money needed as there's no currency sharing between different countries' eShops.

I'm still mad.
One more eShop game to come West this year, w/ Rhythm Heaven, Picross and Style Savvy (for NA). (yes, I know those are retail in JP but I'm not convinced they all will be here)

if RH and Style Savvy do come over, it will be in retail form. 100% sure on Style Savvy due to the target audience.
yeah, that one is likeliest to remain retail. especially since it already did in EU. I'm not convinced on RHTB+ or PC3D2 tho.

Eyrian Odyssey. I couldn't bring myself to finish BD, the second half was so unbelievably terrible.
Which one though?

People generally recommend to start with Untold or IV. If you never played one I personally would go with Untold.
Something really strange happened today. I bought Mario & Sonic 2012 3DS off eBay sometime last year (don't ask) and for some reason the game wouldn't work properly. My New 3DS refused to recognize the game card unless it was inserted in an extremely precise way and then held there/taped in, and even that method stopped working after one or two plays. I was too lazy to return it so I just decided to eat the cost and stick it on the shelf.
Fast forward to today, when I randomly decided to see if the game would work again. Surprise, it didn't. But then I put it into my brother's 2DS just to see what would happen, and what do you know, suddenly it works perfectly, no problems at all. The game is absolutely horrible so I'm still probably not going to play it anyway, but I'm really puzzled at why it works only in the 2DS considering every other cartridge I've owned works totally fine in my 3DS.

Hogan's Alley, Wild Gunman and Adventures of Bayou Billy tomorrow on NA VC.
Also, is it just the demo of SDK Spriter launching tomorrow, or the whole thing? (And was a price ever quoted?)

Those games aren't my cup of tea but I like that they are putting up 3 games tomorrow.
Hrm. Where the indies at? :'(
Oh, I know. Thank you, though. Just am hoping to see some good indies soon. VC has been pretty meh of late.
Oh hey, Future Day was only in 2015 NoA. . .
According to Nintendo.com, we're getting seven indie games tomorrow. None looks particularly interesting, though.
- Avoider (Wii U)
- SDK Spriter (Wii U)
- Tabletop Gallery (Wii U)
- Ocean Runner (3DS)
- My Pets (3DS)
- Discovery (Wii U)
- Bigley's Revenge (Wii U)
Note that Ocean Runner is listed as a Wii U game, despite the trailer clearly shows it's a 3DS game.
Whoa. Thanks for the info! That is a veritable deluge of games...unfortunately as you said none are too exciting. ;___;
The New Zealand eShop is regrettably missing Devil Survivor: Overclocked as well. Since I made an NNID recently, I can't change eShops and douple dip on it digitally. Ah well.
For those on the fence, buy this amazing SRPG. For that price, it is a no brainer.
I was also wondering if anyone knows why Hakuoki: Memories of the Shinsengumi was never released on the NZ eShop. It was curiously absent when I went to check it out because of the sale.
I second Etrian Odyssey as well. (Unless you really dislike dungeon crawlers or games with minimal story.) Either entry is good, and you can always try their respective demos to get a feel for the games if it is your first time playing them.
If you choose Untold, please choose Classic mode for your first playthrough. You'll enjoy the twist(s) much more.
I have had similar experiences with my firsthand longtime copy of Crush3D. Would only recognise if I didn't shove it too far in. This started to happen spontaneously.
I think it's Wiimote only. Maybe because of some platforms you use the Wiimote to control, based on a cursory Google search and cursory memory search.
I thought as much, I guess there was no point with the classic controller when it was only a few buttons game, shame
I'm going to try and go through stuff i've bought in sales and never played on my 3DS/Wii U this year, so far i've completed Gunman Clive and Attack of the Friday Monsters! A Tokyo Tale, I absolutely loved the latter

Nice.
That sucks but now that Nintendo supports the IARC rating system it should hopefully be a thing of the past.
NLife is giving away some codes for a Minecraft lookalike. You need to allow some tracking/advertising scripts to submit your email address, though, so I didn't.
Europe only, btw.

I'll be picking up the 3 VC games as I've had a weird craving for some Wild Gunman lately and the others hold some nostalgia value for me.
But, I was really hoping we'd get Wave Race 64 like Europe did last week.
Played some N64 & Gamecube 1080 over the weekend, any thoughts on Wave Race: Blue Storm? I never got around to picking it up.

Congrats on the 3DS! What games did you pick up?
As said above there weren't many amazing sales recently, at least for first party software.
I loved TFH but I played it exclusively in online MP. There, YMMV in terms of teams, but when you get a good or great team it feels amazing. The game definitely felt built around the online MP and teamwork. I've heard mixed things about SP, seems like people really like it or find it slow and cumbersome.

Sadly that gif will probably relevant for a long time. I've played that game so many times but I can't wait to buy it again.
Edit: No way they release this anywhere near Paper Jam.
Thank you
I didn't get any game yet, lol. Saw the Hyrule Gold Edition and just have to get it, it's too pretty.
I've been holding out on getting the 3DS for too long, there were tons of games for it that I want to get, but don't know where to start. So many good games!

The product page itself confirms Drill Dozer was translated in the various EU languages.
