Question: I've heard that some people receive an email with the Downloads of the week in Europe. How can I receive that?

I get those emails but they come in a day or two after the Thursday update and by then I already know what's new.

This game looks sweet as fuck!

 

[Svafnir]

I can't wait for the virtal console flood for Wii U. I really really really love playing them on the gamepad.

Ha ha, every time I do a club nintendo survey, I badger the hell out of them about the VC.

More likely a trickle than a flood.

Shh. If you say it too loudly, it'll come true. :/

Wii U fans who want more original content on the system, looks like a daily Kickstarter search is in order!

I always make sure to mention Super Mario RPG for Wii U VC asap

 

[zroid]

I always make sure to mention Super Mario RPG for Wii U VC asap

Perhaps the only game I would gladly pay full price for every single damn time it's released on any platform or service.

But I'll take the upgrade for $1.50, thanks.

 

[lamaroo]

Speaking of Club Nintendo, I linked my account on the Wii U over a week ago and none of the surveys are showing up for the games I bought.

Games you bought since linking, or games you bought earlier?

You have to link first to get the surveys. But you can ask Nintendo to add them in manually.

 

[Kevtones]

Lego City is $59.99 on my eShop

 

[Qurupeke]

According to serebii, Pokedex 3D Pro will go on sale from 21/3 until 4/4. 14.99€→11.99€

If this was a -50% sale I'd bought it...

Do you know if there will be more sales? I liked the free pokedex but it is nothing special compared to the pokedexes you can find online.

No sign of any future sales, but even if there are, they're unlikely to be reduced beyond this new price. The game is considered a top-quality digital strategy guide, afterall

This week in Europe:



Punch-Out!! (Nintendo) - €0.30/£0.30

This release is based on the US-NTSC version of the game running at 60Hz.

The long standing war. We won it, in the end, after years and years of battles.

 

[Glass Rebel]

Why in the name of god can't they release at least one VC game per week on 3DS...

Meh, Harmo Knight demo for me.

 

[KingSnake]

This week in Europe:

Nintendo eShop (Wii U)

... something ...

Finally! I am still thinking about MH3, but NFS MW U will be mine.

 

[Qurupeke]

Great week for both Wii U and 3DS!If I didn't buy MH3U, I'd totally buy ACIII and or ZombiU. But now I don't want to spend any more money... Also, Little Inferno for 5€ is quite the deal... And well, there's also Punch out, 60Hz of course. And HarmoKnight Demo, finally.

Great week, nothing like the one before!

 

[frankie_baby]

wow nice ubi sale, slightly tempted to download ac3 though the setting still puts me off it

 

[Morokh]

Harmoknight demo ! guess the game will follow shortly

I have a question about the cheap versions of retro games they started to put out with F-zero (Now Punch - Out) : Playable on the controller ?

Harmoknigt releases on 28 March.

 

[peanutbutterlatte]

Harmoknight demo should have been here last week, else that is an absolutely pathetic week. Get off your asses Nintendo of Europe.

Good god I can't wait until the end of March. Last 3DS game I bought and genuinely enjoyed was either Denpa Men or Crashmo. In retail side... probably Kid Icarus. Jesus.

 

[Robin64]

I have a question about the cheap versions of retro games they started to put out with F-zero (Now Punch - Out) : Playable on the controller ?

Yes, they run on both the TV screen and the Gamepad's screen.

Also, 60hz Punch-Out!! We won!

 

[Like the hat?]

I thought Lego city was supposed to be $50, not $60. Dumb.

 

[Nosgoroth]

This week in Europe:

Nintendo eShop (Wii U)

Punch-Out!! (Nintendo) - €0.30/£0.30
ZombiU (Ubisoft) - €34.99/£29.99 (Normal €69.99/£54.99, ends April 4th)

Nintendo eShop (3DS)

HarmoKnight Demo (Nintendo) - Free

Mine. Next week Luigi and, probably, Harmoknight full. Eck, that's around 90€ in games.

 

[GRW810]

HarmoKnight demo and Punch-Out for me. Disappointed we still haven't had the 3DS sale like NA had recently. I would snap up Mutant Mudds and Hana Samurai the moment there is a discount.

 

[Phife Dawg]

Everybody buy ZombiU!

Spoiler

And pray you're not being hit by a game ending glitch - still an awesome game though

Contemplating ACIII for off-TV but the AC performance on consoles is so bad. Is it better than II at least?

60 EUR MH will be hard to stomach but I'll get my money's worth and I want to have that title DD.

 

[Robin64]

I wonder, does Punch-Out!! have any form of scoring we could use for the high-scores thread? As far as I can remember, you either beat the opponent or don't. It doesn't display time like the SNES one, does it?

 

[Conrad Link]

Punch-Out!! (Nintendo) - €0.30/£0.30

This release is based on the US-NTSC version of the game running at 60Hz.

And so ends the war of getting our shit running at the correct speed. Nintendo foiled by their own creation! Miiverse ftw.

*salute* Congrats everyone, we can all play with pride now knowing we made a difference for future generations who prolly wont even know what the difference is and unknowing old gamers who think they're playing 'hyper' version of their fav classics.

Thanks for listening Nintendo.

HarmoKnight demo! Whoo.

dont speak too soon, wait for a text heavy multi language game

 

[iamaustrian]

IMO 50hz are way easier to stomache when it comes to act-adv like Zelda or even RPGs. so, no worries here

 

[frankie_baby]

definitely agree, just would be nice if they manage the language problem and get 60hz but i doubt it

 

[A Human Becoming]

Doesn't it still affect the music?

 

[lunchwithyuzo]

I'll take Mercury Stream "shovelware" over the crap we got with Judgement.

And yeah, your definition of shovelware does not match mine.

Fair enough. I'd still take The Adventure Rebirth, pretty much any Igavania or even that assy Dracula X 2.5Dmake over Mercury Shovelware's efforts.

 

[serplux]

Meh, Harmo Knight demo for me.

They are releasing one VC game a week in the US. :/ I'd like for it to be two.

It shows the time and round after each fight. You can check it out HERE.

Not for SNES games, but it does for every other platform.

Thanks for the reply Joe. That is too bad to hear, but yeah i know there goes a lot of work into these guides but there is just so much more info in the pokedexes online that i decided to skip the pokedex 3d.

loooool
*puts card back in the wallet*

 

[evilromero]

Really disappointed we're getting Punch-Out instead of some other VC game. I feel like between AC and the Wii, I've gotten my fill of PO. Definitely looking forward to SM in April though.

 

[Robin64]

Perfect, thanks!

Bought before linking, no big deal then.

Since I'm platinum I should stop earning coins until the next Club Nintendo year starts right, or have they changed that?

 

[serplux]

Seems like WayForward released a screen of Mighty Switch Force 2, possibly:

 

[vdlow]

So now we're going after... babies? lol Can't wait to see more. There's a lot of potential in Mighty Switch Force.

 

[lunchwithyuzo]

It's bullshit that Japan gets one more SNES game than us. I understand why they'd hold back on Earthbound, but why not something else? Even Super Punch-Out!! would be better.

 

[Like the hat?]

Probably doesn't mean a whole lot, but a Wonderful 101 trailer has been added to the "coming soon to Nintendo eshop" section on the wii u eshop. At least I don't remember seeing it there before.
Not a new trailer, btw.

 

[ShellyDeKiller]

I really really really want to go digital. Tired of swapping discs, but those ridiculous prices man....
With £120 I can only buy digitally NFS: Most Wanted U and MH3U. With discs, I can get Most Wanted, MH3U AND Lego City.

Fucking Nintendo, man.

At least give us the choice to install our games FFS!!

I won't even bother downloading it. I know I won't play it past 5 minutes :/

I actually never played NES Punch-Out, so...
