Scram Kitty is excellent. I don't get why more people aren't talking about it.
What baseball game are you talking about? The only one I can think of is Rusty's Real Deal Baseball, but that doesn't seem like what you're talking about.

Two strategy games in one week?
Hasn't been too bad at all. There's been a decent amount of stuff every week and the quality has been relatively high. Stick it to the Man, Abyss HD and Scram Kitty are all really good. Even Color Zen is pretty good. (Though it really should have been a $2 3DS game.)Is this one of the best months for Wii U eShop releases? This is even w/ the Armillo delay.
5/1 - Stick it to the Man
5/1 - Abyss
5/15 - Scram Kitty
5/15 - Color Zen (?)
5/22 - Swords & Soldiers HD
5/22 - Squids Odyssey
Not bad.
Finally beat Rage of the Gladiator. Fun game. Definitely worth 3.50 I got it for. Last boss was a complete joke though. Good punchout clone, but Punchout is still better.
I'm in love with Stick it to the Man. It managed to evaporated my bad mood from this morning's encounter with the new NN ToS.Is this one of the best months for Wii U eShop releases? This is even w/ the Armillo delay.
5/1 - Stick it to the Man
5/1 - Abyss
5/15 - Scram Kitty
5/15 - Color Zen (?)
5/22 - Swords & Soldiers HD
5/22 - Squids Odyssey
Not bad.
Fucking hell. Nintendo I hate you so much. I bought Punch Out again cause I never beat it on the Wii. I own it twice now, and as much as I hate myself for spending money again on it, Mike Tyson (Mr Dream, whatever) is going the fuck down.
3DS. Forgot to mention.You know that you can transfer VC games to your WiiU for free?

There will be more SNES games on WiiU? Right?
Right?
If they run out they'll need release those N64 games, eh? Eh?I recently made a list of all NES, SNES and GBA games, first party, that could come and couldn't depending on various reasons. We're actually running low on NES and SNES, and without third parties bringing their titles (aside from Konami and Namco), we'd run out soon enough.
If they run out they'll need release those N64 games, eh? Eh?
Within a discussion on another forum, I decided to list all first party NES, SNES & GBA titles that we don't have in Europe and it's a rather startling low amount. I've bolded ones that are likely/probable and listed potential reasons why we won't get others. It's somewhat interesting.

N64 and DS, yeah
Here's the list again (mostly talking EU. Some, like Mach Rider, have made it in the US)
I hope Nintendo will work with third parties to bring them to release their titles...
I want Hagane, I want FF6 and Secret of Mana (again, cause I want to play them on the gamepad), I want parodius, R-Type, hell, there are so much good SNES titles!
The hell with DS VC, I have a 3DS, I can play DS titles! Just release them on E-shop!
This was the usual monday morning "VC sucks"
DS titles can't work on the 3DS eShop.
We can download DSiware, why wouldn't it be possible to release retail DS titles on 3DS e-shop (not talking about VC here)?
I am not a techie so sorry if what I say makes no sense.
They have released as DSiWare (which I know is not the same).DS titles can't work on the 3DS eShop.
For one, the memory allocated on the 3DS hardware for DSi downloads is small, some DS games won't fit on it.
Second, the way the saves work would have to require massive recoding to get working on the 3DS.
It's really not as easy as people think with these things. It's not as simple as putting the file up on the eShop to download
They have released as DSiWare (which I know is not the same).
So, that Pokemon Link game... Is it any good? It's kind of expensive but it seems fun. I guess a sale would take a long time to happen too.
in what way? http://www.nintendo.co.jp/ds/dsiware/k56j/index.htmlDSiWare is different to retail DS games.
But the link I posted is for Coro Pata released just last month so they can work and I'm guessing not much work was involved by LukPlus as it's not exactly like it sold a million downloads.releasing them as native DS programs to run like DSiWare won't work
I'd have a look at the VC to get an idea of who is participating. Given Komani I'm really hoping for Mega Ma...oh wait that joke only works the other way round. Given Konami I'm really hoping for Ninja 5-O as it would be nice to have a way to buy this game that doesn't cost like $100.Oh my fucking god !
3rd parties are on the way !
Most people are positive. A few people however found it was not their cup of tea. It seems like the kind of game that once you "get it" you can keep the game almost perpetually (as in the difficulty peaks a bit early). It still has the occasional tricky stage (there is one that is allSo, that Pokemon Link game... Is it any good? It's kind of expensive but it seems fun.

It's 426 blocks (whatever that is).Speaking of which wasn't the Japanese release of Advance Wars Days of Ruin (Club Nintendo reward) 64 megabytes so most games would work.
It's 426 blocks (whatever that is).
Does it actually download to dsiware?That's 53.25 MB. It would cause your storage space to run out in one-two games.

Well that's certainly more than the 27MB you quoted. (I think it's 125MB).That's 53.25 MB. It would cause your storage space to run out in one-two games.
Yes. Coro Pata and Advance Wars are 100% DSiWare.Does it actually download to dsiware?
Well that's certainly more than the 27MB you quoted. (I think it's 125MB).
See my post above. They both are DSiWare so as I said earlier DS games CAN work as DSiWare.Do you have it? Is it stored as a 3DS game or as DSiWare? Because if it's the latter, then you would be limited to 128MB (1024 blocks of total open space for DSiWare), which is too little.
(By the way, for future reference: 1 Block = 1 Megabit, or 128 Kilobytes.)
