Fatal Frame digital only,.. Sigh.
I'm still buying it but it sucks.

I have already bought many $40 Amiibo thanks to Nintendo's anti-consumer retailer exclusive garbage. The $40 price tag on the mega Amiibo is Nintendo's MSRP, but eBay scalpers are going to set the real price.

But there's going to be a much bigger online uproar of Fatal Frame than Devil's Third. That's what doesn't make sense.
They should just have Xseed release it like Devil's Third was planned to.

Xenoblade X, so close, yet so far. Didn't NoA say it was getting a CE/LE or something? Still don't know jack about that.

Devil's Third gets a retail release but Fatal Frame doesn't, kinda surprising. Sucks this wasn't presented in a Direct. I hope they aren't done with them.

I agree. It's ridiculous.
Nintendo could have done the things right.

Europe is getting a Limited Edition retail release with posters, artbooks and all that stuff^^ But I guess Nintendo US doesn't care

Ask me about the GAF Notebook
I hope Triforce Heroes is decent because that 3ds lineup is abysmal if it isn't good.

Star Fox Zero at $60, a few people aren't going to be happy about that.
it's incredible how few games the Wii U has, and how I'm gonna buy practically all of them LOL
great to see dates for EU too, so now my purchase schedule is:
Super Mario Maker: September
Fatal Frame limited edition: October
Star fox, Mario Tennis: November
Xeno limited edition: December
still on the fence for Animal crossing amiibo: if it's "free to download", and so the retail version at a SRP around 39 bucks, I could buy it, considering the two amiibos and the 3 cards in the bundle.
I'm on the fence for the other "toy-to-life" games too, probably waiting for them to drop the price, but I'm probably going to buy Infinity, Supercharger and Lego too.
Plus, the 3DS games (Zelda, Chibi Robot)...my wallet!

I'm not impressed by the EU 3DS line-up at all. As if Pokémon SMD's unreasonable delay wasn't enough, Yo-Kai Watch doesn't seem to have moved up to Holidays 2015 like in NA. I may pickup Tri Force Heroes, and I'm mildly interested in Zip-Lash, but I think I'll wait for the reviews.

I don't see how they're going to justify that price. I think it's going to get savaged in reviews (which it should be). Even Yoshi, like Tropical Freeze is priced at $50.
As for Devil's Third as much as I'm interested I won't buy at launch since its price and release date spell deep discount. I was hoping for a $40 launch price.
don't overlook LBX, releasing if few weeks.
I'd have bought Yokai day one, if released, now we have to wait a little longer...
It's a shame how people will base a game's price off of early footage and basically no details.
It's progress. A couple of years ago we would have had to start some social media campaign to get them to acknowledge it.

I'm surprised Star Fox is $60.

I guess the game isn't completely free then?
Isabelle and Digby were the only AC amiibo I kind of wanted, might get in on this...

Sucks that FF5 isn't getting a retail release, but I'm just glad this one is coming out here period. Day 1.

Fatal Frame being free-to-start is perfect for me. I was on the fence about the game (never played a FF game before), but it will be a lot easier to decide after playing the first chapter.
That's partly why people are weary about the game. It supposedly comes out very soon, but we haven't seen much of it and we don't know the release date.

Explain.
Well, it's better than digital-only, in any case. However, limited edition-only also means that NoE will just print one limited print-run and after that it's digital-only. But, yeah, hopefully there will be enough copies, so that everyone interested in the game will be able to buy one without big problems.
They're just going to review the graphics, apparently.
I agree with the people saying that it's crazy that Devil's Third gets a physical release but not Fatal Frame.
It's just that Nintendo has done nothing to alleviate our concerns yet. No online multi doesn't help, either.

So Mario Tennis will be delayed to 2016 then?
Also wow, that is such a weak holiday line-up. ~Sigh~

Maybe if they were immensely incompetent reviewers that shouldn't be working in a professional setting...
why you say that?
unfortunately, we still don't know the price, but that quote just say that the game is slated for '15 release, and that at retail it will be bundled with 2 amiibos and 3 cards.
I still hope for a 40 price tag (15 + 15 + 5 more or less, + 5 for packaging/disc)

Uh, how is Wii U's holiday lineup "weak"? Even without Zelda, it's pretty solid.
It's the rest of 2015 that's been a barren wasteland, outside of Splatoon. People rag on MS for putting too much emphasis on the holidays but man, Nintendo has been so much worse this generation.

How the hell did fatal frame get regulated to wahoo, but Devils Third managed a retail release after everything it's been through? Oh well.
I'm guessing they're either waiting for Super Mario Maker to release or there is/was supposed to be a Nintendo Direct this month. Either way, it's too early to criticize the price of a game that people barely know about. I understand the worry though.
I made my up about Directs. Happy to be proven wrong, btw.
Oh no. We'll get a 1 minute Direct where they announce the release date for Animal Crossing: amiibo festival and you'll love every second of it.
Probably still too soon to do a Direct. I think they'll come back early next year.

Yeah, I should have said fall and winter line-ups. It is one game a month for the Wii U and 3DS. Only Yokai Watch I think will get sales.
Specially when PS4 is getting Persona 5 and Disgaea 5 this year.
They're probably still trying to work out a new style of Direct since Iwata's passing.
No? Already has a release date in Europe and will probably get one for NA soon. Amiibo Festival doesn't have one either.
