Whoa whoa whoa whoa, let's not get crazy here. Square Enix, lol, are you nuts!

I dream big, lol.

Just let me replay Secret of Mana on the Gamepad goddamn!

 

[daydream]

I'm still interested in Zombie Panic in Wonderland DX impressions. Same for The Keep.

Paper Monsters Recut next week in Europe

 

[GulAtiCa]

I just want Soul Blazer VC.

You don't even know what you're missing by not also asking for Terranigma!

This is a quality release. Everyone should consider checking this out.

 

[sörine]

The entire trilogy should be on VC. Illusion of Gaia at least was probably in the works at one point since title data was found in the Wii VC emulator code.

Wow, did not know that. This hurts.

 

[sörine]

Wow, did not know that. This hurts.

Other unreleased games were found too. If think Lufia was another.

I feel sad now.

[jnWake]

Thanks for all the Castlevania replies! I guess I'll try Castlevania IV first and if I like it I'll try the NES ones (I and III). I'll also check out the GBA ones!

 

[terrisus]

lmao

rip in peace, Nintendo Download thread. Wii U 2014 got moved too.

Apparently discussion about games is no longer gaming-related.
Absurd.

So now we have a new thread in Gaming for each weekly PR? Huh, weird.

k guys I expect a bunch fof theads up this month

This seems like the best course of action.

 

[terrisus]

=(

 

[donny2112]

New thread for every weekly download PR may just give more visibility to the release slate each week, too. *shrugs*

 

[astrogamer]

At least we're getting the GBC one this month

A bit more work to keep up with, but I think this is probably the best idea.

Is that this month?

It's not anywhere near as good as the two SNES ones (and, even though its story is more related, I don't think as good as the GBA one either), but it's still a decent game.
I'll definitely be getting it.

Natsume said they're interested in Lufia II as well since they did the original localization. They won't do the first Lufia though since they had no involvement with it.

I personally hope they work out a deal for the Pocky & Rocky games.

Yeah, I know we would have to rely on Taito for Fortress of Doom (and Ruins of Lore), and, with them being part of Square-Enix now, that's probably not going to happen.
Alas.

I would definitely be thrilled with Rise of the Sinistrals though.

 

[Vanillalite]

Where art thou?!?!?!

 

[maxcriden]

Oh heeeere you guys are.

 

[GulAtiCa]

I uhh think we have a new contender for worst eShop game yet! A horrible flappy bird game that makes the original Flappy Bird look like an AAA game. Apparently it doesn't even have high scores. Oh, and it's not $0.99, or even edgy $1.99. It's $4.99!

Flapp & Zegeta

It's an OUYA port of this game..

Soo.. Who's hyped for this game?

 

[donny2112]

Well, I'm not into more work, so I hope this thread will still be the one-stop-shop for all the updates. Someone can just make the thread for the regular Gaming forum each week from the PR with the fancy formatting from this thread.

We do?

ETA:

Reading through the last couple pages, it appears there won't be a weekly thread, but rather the PR will continue to be discussed here, and any notable releases would get their own threads (if I understood correctly).

 

[lamaroo]

Thank god for subscriptions.

No, I usually wait until the Nintendo site updates to make sure I get everything
Edit: Looks like it already update. I forgot about Daylight Saving Time moving the update up an hour

 

[jholmes]

Heading to a Wii U Virtual Console near you (if you're in Japan!) next week: Crash 'n' the Boys: Street Challenge and Mega Man Battle Network 2.

Edit: Erm... maybe I shouldn't have taken so long to hammer this out :/

[GulAtiCa]

I almost forgot that Pier Solar launches Thursday. I so do not have time for all these games!

 

[Man God]

Beyond my normal purchases for the year that are locked in (Captain Toad, SSB Wii U) I'm going to reserve 150-200 dollars just to go crazy with eshop and VC games, especially those from companies that don't normally have sales just to get some last minute benefit from the DDP program. I'm not going to buy anything I wouldn't ever consider buying just to hit some arbitrary spending goal either but I will go slightly outside my comfort zone. I'm looking to dramatically curb game spending next year anyways so this will be a sort of last hurrah/buffing up the backlog. Should be fun.

 

[steveovig]

C'mon, Battle Network 2 soon for the States! By the time it comes, I'll be done with the original!

Other than the curbing of spending next year part, the same. I'm not planning on going heavy next year or something, just normal. EOY for DDP is going to be quite a thing.

 

[Man God]

I say I'm going to curb it but...

Wii U has about 5 games I want retail plus who knows how many VC and eshop titles.

3DS has far fewer with confirmed dates but who knows when it is all said and done, probably looking at 10 titles here.

Plus Vita and very likely a PS4 at the end of the year. I'm weak! Thankfully this is practically my only hobby that costs money.

So maybe we can have now Aostia's thread about indie games reopened or recreated in the Community?

I co-sign this!

 

[GulAtiCa]

I would love this!

 

[Vanillalite]

Put me in the camp of hating moving stuff to Community. You'll get like 50% less traffic if not more for threads like this or the screenshot thread. Totally blows IMO.

 

[Chrom]

Chiming in to say that I like this idea. I think GAF's new approach to how threads can be indexed on Gaming and Gaming Community can allow for this.

 

[Colonel Mustard]

Just do it.

I think we should vote on...maybe the top 20 eShop games?

 

[TheMoon]

I would love this!

u bias!

Never say never. Square Enix actually went through the trouble of getting Lufia 1 a new esrb rating for Wii a couple years back so they're at least aware of it.

Now if only we could get SE on Virtual Console at all now.

That would be sooooo good. How do they not see the money in this. Especially since they're already supporting VC in Japan.

 

[maxcriden]

Just do it.

Sounds really complicated, unless you have an idea of how to streamline it. I'm for voting, I just wouldn't know how to organize something like that.

Probably just some kind of joke to go along with the mangling that was Curse of the Sinistrals. >.>

 

[TheMoon]

Sounds really complicated, unless you have an idea of how to streamline it. I'm for voting, I just wouldn't know how to organize something like that.

I'd suggest forgoing unnecessary restrictions like "top 20" and just going with recommendations separated into categories (action, rpg, strategy, platformer, weird, other)

No Harvest Moon reviews yet? I need to know if the game is ok.

 

[jholmes]

It's OK. The translation isn't, though. Go buy it anyway. It's the sort of game Off-TV play was made for.
