I was so pumped to see Blaster Master announced. But then I didn't see it and... oh. 3DS. Okay.

Yeah that's one thing that's always bugged me about it. I really wish they'd combine the systems vc titles(and maybe some others that would be nice on either system...) as best as they could like how playstation and others are to some extent.....

I don't know but I wish they'd get all of the expensive titles from previous generations on there. Only of the few titles I'd be okay with purchasing digitally for myself...it's nice getting them cheap as vc stuff

Speaking of expensive titles, I have heard that Capcom was supposed to release a bunch of titles for the 3DS and Wii U (mostly Wii U) later on this year, but does anyone know exactly when they're coming out? Like a specific date?

I really hope soon. I'm still waiting on taito/Sqeenix to republish little samson because I refuse to support the market prices on that one(shantae at least got re-released so I might be able to try that one :? )

Little Samson is a pretty rad game.

Oh yeah, I snagged Wonderful 101 and ZombiU. And... am still playing Mario Kart. Also got the code for Pikmin 3, so I'll eventually get to try that.

I did get some time with W101, and it is pretty great so far. The controls are taking some getting used to, but considering what these guys have put out in the past, I am more than willing to become familiar with their game, even if it takes some time. The game is ridiculously charming though.

Yeah it looks like a decent game just not worth it for me at 300+ no matter how decent

Especially when it runs flawlessly on an emulator :wink:

Hopefully they stick it on the VC for ya though, it is definitely worth a playthrough.

Well I'd rather play it physically or on vc(though if the famicom version is english friendly I may go for that since that one is wayyyyyyy cheaper :shock:

Famicom version should be fine, its not a text-heavy game. So, there ya go, now you can play it! :)
