Woah Dave is surprisingly fun and addictive. It's the modern version of the SMA remake of Mario Bros. to me. I still have tons of achievements to get on it. I don't think I've made it to $2 yet even (in either mode).

Anyone interested in Tiny Galaxy impressions? Taking it for a spin now, asked what the embargo (if any) is(edit: no embargo, but I'm still playing). Also need to play around with High Strangeness some more.
Toki Tori 2+ is great. Highly recommend both Toki Toris (especially 2+) and everything by Wayforward. And Guacamelee and the Trines if you don't already have them (I've gotten Guacamelee in like 2 bundles and PS+ at this rate). Pretty great sale in general, though I have pretty much everything.

Is there any reason to not wait for this over the original release?
YOU GET TO PLAY AS A GIRL!!!!!
.....also something about a farming degree system & more events which now award points
The bachelor's are lamers and you can't play as a boy. Other than that, no, it's an improvement.

Wait, really? I thought the girl was an option, not a total replacement. Now I don't know what to do.

What is Ittle Dew and why does it always seem to be on sale?
Also, can anyone recommend a good external hard drive to use with the Wii U? I only download games that don't get retail versions so 250 GB or so is probably about all I need (if that). I can't purchase Giana Sisters because it requires over 4 gigs and I don't have enough room. I don't understand why I can't just buy it now and download it later, I have to delete stuff from my hard drive or I can't even purchase it. Why?

Ittle Dew is essentially a Zelda clone of sorts. I'm playing through it now and I think it's ok, but the difficulty ranges wildly and it's fairly short.

It's short because it's not a Zelda clone in the sense that it's a big adventure, it's a Zelda dungeon gameplay clone but the structure is more like a Binding of Isaac where it's all built around replayability.

To jump start my memory:
Out of the 2 Mighty Switch Force, the best one is the HD? Or the one to get out the two is this one. Correct?
Does anyone here have a 5 eShop code they are willing to sell for paypal?

I'd say that Ittle Dew is more like Goof Troop than Zelda.

The first one was completely redone in HD, the second only has HD character art.

I really like the water mechanic in MSF2, though.

im a bit confused then.
i thought it was one of this definitive things in regards to which game was better. It seems that i am wrong.
Shantae, although different, is a higher "quality" game than these Mighty Switch Force ones?
Also i' ll eco the comments (a hundred times if necessary) for people to buy Toki Tori 2. Really amazing game that doesn't get the appreciation it deserves. Toki and Mark of the Ninja are at the top of the summit as far as indi games are concerned from my view.
TheMoon

Yea I think Shantae might be better overall. At the very least it is the best Shantae game.
MSF 1 HD is the one they did more work on, like others said, with the redone art and stuff for a proper HD version whereas MSF2 on Wii U is just the same pixel art as on 3DS (same as Shantae).
MSF2 is a bit more complex and a tiny bit more puzzly with the added mechanics (those hidden optional babies and the water mechanics and more complicated lock-block setups) while MSF1 is a bit more focused on straight up platforming and occasional shooting.

They finally released Bike Rider DX2 in Europe?! Not sure how I missed that the first time I looked at the releases for this week.

Is Tiny Galaxy out in NA? Or does it come out next week?
Thequietone
Member
Is always on sale because it is a glitchy mess. I am still surprised the dev never patched it. I can't even beat the final boss because it keeps freezing....
Next week.
N64/DS are probably getting priority over NES/SNES/GBA stuff still mia. Plus NA still gets the most indie releases and that results in NOA holding back on VC.
Next gen Nintendo really needs to move VC to it's own dedicated day. Especially if they do the dripfeed rollout again (they will).
If WiiU was a hot item or has a lot of games, NoA will never bother releasing those 3 Wii games.
I hope region lock console will be phased out for NX or Nintendo allows multiple account login from different region for handheld and home console. I will buy games directly from Jpn eshop each time NoA has a drip feed release.

Which shows me they will have learned nothing and the NX will be even more of a bomb. Seriously Nintendo deserves to fail if they do this crap again.

Surely how they handle Virtual Console is a good indicator for how the entire platform will be handled and ultimately perform.
It can also be used to predict the weather.

NX VC is regular VC games without the stupid filter thing making everything darker.
But to cover the cost of developing this new 'feature' they have to charge again for Super Mario Bros. and Zelda 1 etc, also they'll each be released in once a month time frames starting 2017 onwards, please understand.
50hz only for PAL.

I wouldn't worry too much, PixalTheCat. The NX won't have any new games, it will just be Virtual Console, nothing more.
But can it predict the outcome of sporting events? Because if so, we might on to something big here.
TheMoon
Member
Nah, you need an almanac for that which has been acquired through time travel.
Killer Yakuza B
Member
See? Nintendo never learns! Peripherals are never successful. That almanac will be the 64DD all over again.
Now I want the NX to have a "mysterious" port in the bottom labeled EXT. I kinda miss those useless things.
TheMoon
Member
The Vita mystery ports probably were abandoned late in production because the Vita will look silly with two cables restricting game play and the Vita battery being difficult to be replaced/removed will get tons of complaints because the battery can no longer last more than 10 minutes after days of plugging the Vita to the TV.Oh yes, mysterious ports are cool.
So we've got the following for this Thursday in NA:
Wii U
Tiny Galaxy
3DS
I Am An Air Traffic Controller Hero Narita Airport
I Love My Dogs
And sadly...
/resets sign: "0 Weeks Without A GG Series Game"
GG Series VECTOR

So, no VC game for NA this week?
That stuff's just what's confirmed. It sounds like we're maybe getting that alternate GBA Harvest Moon this week.
Some of these are actually okay. I couldn't tell you which ones and I've forgotten pretty much all of them, but trust me, they're not all awful.
