GBA games are up, only for Ambassadors of course.
Just noticed that here in the UK and probably europe, we have eurosport channel up.
If you have some pounds/euro/USD to spare, Pullbox/Pushmo is on eshop. Game is by Intelligent Systems/Nintendo.

Downloaded the GBA games. Metroid Fusion and LoZ: Minish Cap are two of my favourite games ever, so i'm happy to have a solid copy of them. All games look and sound pretty amazing. Great job Nintendo.

GBA Ambassador downloads are pretty sick. IMO, much better than the 10 GB which is pretty good list in its own but the GBA lineup has everything from Zelda to MarioKart to Wario to F-Zero to Fire Emblem to Metroid.

Do you guys think that these GBA games will be available for purchase next year? I'm thinking of getting a 3DS this winter, and some of those GBA games would be extra incentive to pick up a 3DS. I definitely want WarioWare and The Minish Cap (never played The Minish Cap and WarioWare is one of the best portable/handheld games ever). Also, will the 10 NES games they offered for free be available for purchase sometime?


I don't have a lot of money for gaming right now. If I get a 3DS, I won't have money for Batman AA and Batman AC for PS3 for awhile. But I'd get Super Mario 3D Land as my first title, and Link's Awakening DX as my first 3DS VC title (I never played through it, I hardly ever played it). Whaddya guys think? Should I get a 3DS sooner than later?

Games I'd like to get on the 3DS that are out now/will come out in the next few months:

Super Mario 3D Land
Tales of the Abyss
The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time
Mario Kart 7

When does the Fire Emblem game for 3DS hit N.A.?

As of now, Nintendo said they have no plans to release any GBA games into the shop. I don't know why, as it seems to work pretty darn well and would sell a lot, but there's probably some reasoning behind it. Anyways, it's not absolute either, so they might later on or something.

If you get a 3DS, I personally would recommend Mario Kart 7 over 3D Land. With 3D Land you'll probably beat the whole thing within a week and be left with almost nothing to do, but with Mario Kart you can go online and race with just about anyone whenever.

Not too sure about the Fire Emblem title, but it's not even out in Japan yet, so at the earliest it'd probably be around mid 2012.

I'll disagree with that. There's collecting all the coins and playing the special world levels, and there's loads of them. Totally worth anyone's money.

Not to mention that the game is plenty epic, and a must play for any Mario fan.

Yeah, don't get me wrong, it's fantastic. I honestly beat all the special world levels within 3 days and collected all the coins within the week; thought I'd have my say in what I felt to be a longer-term investment.

I'll get both Super Mario 3D Land and Mario Kart 7. I'll probably wait on Zelda OOT 3DS.

What is the full name of that Inami character, Paper Mario? She is cute.

That's a good idea if you can afford it.

That would be Mahiru Inami from Working!!, and the tag's a line from the show. Still, I agree completely with it.

'epic' is a useless metric for rating a game. Please explain your appreciation using a different choice of words.

I completely agree.
I haven't played Yoshi's Island for 15 years and replaying it is a great pleasure. I would have loved SNES games on eshop.

By the way new trailers appear :
Bravely Default :

Beyond the Labyrinth :

Bravely Default's video is gorgeous. I love this hand-drawn style for the town. It may be a little blurry but we've to wait to see it on 3DS screen.

Finally saw 3DS in action. Not bad. Don't see what the complaints were about concerning headaches.

Still want an American 3DS though.

Very much depends on the person, different people react differently to it just like with anything else.
For Instance I can handle it fine but my brother can't.

Just notice that andriasang has an article that si called "3DS Fire Emblem Kicks Off Nintendo Paid Download Content".
Personally I am not a big fan of DLCs, unless it is a real expansion to the main games, like the old expansion packs. Since no one is sure what kind of DLC it will be, I am not going to judge it for the time being. But hopefully it won't be stupid like buy gold for money or weapons.

By the way the letter box application is really neat, once you have further options unlocked.
