I hear 3DS System Update is a lot of fun. An underrated gem if you will.
when are we getting mario land 3? ever? I hope their recent losses put their feet to the fire and get some VC games out there. People can't buy what you won't sell them.
Another week with no virtual console release on the eshop....this is really starting to bother me.
I don't think we're getting any other first party GB games until Kirby's Block Ball comes out. I'm pretty sure that was always the plan. It's what I've believed these last few months since Block Ball was the only VC game on the Q1 list. Yeah it missed the date, but at least eshop is saying coming soon now. Either next week or the week after if I read the eshop right.
Three months with no NA Game Boy Virtual Console releases, and a month without any Virtual Console releases on the eShop. It makes no sense, given the size of the library (even if it is mostly top heavy for AAA titles). Japan is receiving Wario Land 3, and has already had the two other Wario Lands, while we're waiting for the first to come.
because nintendo has somehow figured out that drip feeding releases and over pricing them leads to more revenue...
oh wait....
ah nintendo, if only I could make you read things and learn stuff.

The online feature in Super Street Fighter II is being quietly advertised! They should emphasize that more.
that's because the only reason its there is because it was in the original genesis title. via xband compatability.
Yeah sure we get a VC game on the Wii, but that is mostly dead to me now since i have all the VC Games i basicly wanted. So now i've basicly moved on to the 3DS and later the Wii U when a price drop happens.
As for this week's releases the only thing i got was the 3DS update and i did that late tuesday night.
I actually am pretty impressed with an online Street Fighter II... I know it was on the Genesis before, but still.. this is kind of exciting.
I'm not going to get it, but still exciting.
Yeah, if you had a Japanese 3DS, you'd realize a lot of shovelware has been dumped this year on their eshop in terms of 3d games (3dsware per se) with the exception Dillion's Rolling Western. Here in NA we've gotten Sakura Samurai (which came out last year in Japan), Ketzal's Corridors (also came out last year in Japan), Dillon's Rolling Western. And they haven't even gotten Mutant Mudds, VVVVVV, Zen Pinball or Colors 3D. I don't know if its a fair trade off that they have the better VC selection and we have the better 3DSWare library, but it doesn't mean we've gotten nothing at all.
