Yeah, man, whenever a company doesn't use my ideas, it can only be because they're major fuckups.

That was announced before launch.I think the whole Konami buyout kinda destroyed any plans for TG-16 games.
They still seem to have an interest in Hudson's back catalog, though. Almost every Famicom title coming out on VC in Japan in the past few months has been a Hudson game.

Dammit whenever I try to go back to Wii U menu from Zen Pinball 2 it seems like my screen gets frozen or something

Didn't we get Kid Icarus 3D Classic with Uprising, or am I remembering wrongly?
I certainly got it for free in the run up to KIU, anyway.

I unfortunately cannot post new threads, what with being a Juniour member and I'm not sure where to post this...so I'll do it here!

Could be, but most likely not. Updates usually come internationally on the same day, so if it is on the NA/EU eShop, then it may be important.

Not actually that important
HOLY. FUCKIN. SHIT.
...they said it would NEVER happen, license blahblahblah..l and now THIS.
IT'S A GLORIOUS DAY

Classic 2D platformer? No gimmicks? Day one, most likely. Although it does look pretty ugly. I may wait to hear impressions.

Yes we did get it, at least in EU/UK, with preorders for KIU
Beat Sakura Samurai earlier today. What a great little game! Frustrating at times, but the gameplay was enjoyable and the atmosphere was warm and inviting. Had a fair bit of fun. I know I have so many retail games to go through, but I'm honestly enjoying eshop offerings more than retail at this point!

Loved that game. Hope we get a sequel like we are getting for Dillon's Rolling Western. 3DS eShop is a great platform for Nintendo to experiment with new franchises, and they've been doing a great job so far. Hope they can keep up that same momentum on the Wii U eShop.
3DS save data transfer tool out in Japan next Wednesday

Just from the cart to the digital copy wtf. I have some digital titles and I wanted to buy the retail version as well, but this bothers me much.

Once you go digital, they don't want to ever let you go back...
The MH3U save transfer is supposed to allow you to go back and forth between 3DS and Wii U, but this would seem to be a different process, then. It seems like there'd be no technical limitation preventing it, so it really must be just a "We don't want you going back to cartridge after digital."
Fake Edit:
Hmm. After thinking about this for a bit, there could be a legitimate (in Nintendo's logic) reason for this. You can back up your SD card, including the save for the digital release. Therefore, you could back up your SD card, transfer to cartridge, restore SD card, transfer to another cartridge, etc., etc. Maybe they're just trying to prevent save duping that would be possible since the digital save can already be backed up.
Is it possible to get the big system update on 3DS next week alongside with this transfer tool?
I know I might think too much......
And Japan got Luigi Mansion 2 street pass puzzle yesterday.

Wants the largest console games publisher to avoid Nintendo's platforms.
Game is a must-get for me.

Will support. Loved GH and this is the right price point.
Day one of course.
edit:
I just realized that with these my Nintendo system backlog is getting quite ridiculous. Lego and Luigi coming in as physical copies too. Just dl'ed MH - I need to quit my job or something...
The transfer tool took so long to make because it's a possible security risk: digital games saves are strongly encrypted and can't be tampered, but cartridge saves don't have such protection and can be modified with the correct tools. Nintendo needs to make sure the process doesn't become an attack vector. It also needs to be tested with all existing games (newer games will probably support the transfer by using a newer version of the SDK).
Correct, this prevents save duping, which would be a problem with online games.

This means one thing however. You can erase Mercenaries saves off the cartridge (take that Capcom). Only problem is you need a digital version to do so...or will it possibly let us transfer despite not owning (if its like copying a save off the SD card on the Wii, you can't do it unless you've played the game on that system).
Seems really unlikely. This is not a save archival tool; it's for people who want to dump their game cards and go digital.
Frankly, I'm kinda surprised this whole thing is desired in the first place. A save archival/backup tool would be more useful for me.
For people who bought games before digital was an option (or changed their mind on the digital option, after-the-fact), who want to go digital and keep their save. MK7 digital was the poster child for this early on, I think. A game that was cartridge-only on release, is a mainstay at 3DS meetups, and is now available in digital form. The timing also fits with the NOA CN digital promotion for download games for SM3DL/StarFox 64 (assuming the tool is coming this week for U.S., too), which were only cartridge, at first.
If you buy a bundle with a DD version of a game you already own, you can re-sell the cart and keep your save.
Sweet!
Hope this comes to NA soon as well, want to transfer my Starfox save to my free copy and then sell the cartridge. Nice.

Same content?
Europe too?
It's not the same content, it's not the same game. Really, it's only the card games or something. It says so in the description

Holy crap there's a shit load of stuff for PALand.
Stolen from that Go site said:
MERCENARIES AT 9.99?!?! WHAT O_O
That's a lot of games and in competitive prices. I would consider Heroes Of Ruin since the retail game is still expensive here.

Id be tempted to pick up both resi titles there. Ie run out of room on my sd card will need a much bigger one.
HarmoKnight, here we go!
Resident Evil Mercenaries for £9 is good, right? I've never seen it below a tenner even at retail.
EscapeVector is mine. Promised myself I would get it the moment a few quid was knocked off. Half price? It's mine.
Harmoknight demo hasn't completely won me over yet, might have to wait for a discount there as well.

I stand corrected. I thought we were talking about the DS/DSi Classic Games published by Nintendo.
