Here are what I bought on the 17th at a large store that sells used items: * Wave Race (GB) * Geist (GCN) * MLB featuring Ken Griffey Jr. Game Boy Edition (GB) * Ken Griffey Jr.'s Slugfest (GBC) * Ken Griffey Jr. Presents MLB (N64) * Ken Griffey Jr.'s Slugfest (N64) * Pokémon Ruby * Pokémon Sapphire * Pokémon Emerald * Pokémon Fire Red * Pokémon Leaf Green On the same day (or probably early in the morning on the 18th), I also ordered my first Club Nintendo product that costs Coins: the reproduced and reissued version of the Game & Watch™: Ball. wow Either you must have spent a lot of money or it sells stuff for super-cheap! I would have to spend a fortune to get that at the local used video game store (which isn't that great IMHO) |

Newest purchase:
ファイアーエムブレム 新・紋章の謎 ~光と影の英雄~
Yep, that's the Japan-only Fire Emblem 12. I originally wanted to wait for the NA version, but then... you know what happened.
If they announce its localization in E3 I'm gonna.... well, nothing actually, unless if they decide to include non-Japanese-only features like they did with FE10.

Japan-only?  +  Anyway, I recently bought Kirby's Epic Yarn, and some of its music is addictive. This one below, found in the first world Grass Land, sounds like a part of a wedding ceremony where family relatives and friends take their seats before the bride arrives, or something heard on The Bachelor and The Bachelorette (I don't watch them, but my step-sister does). |

FE12 is likely going to be Japan only. No announcement whatsoever now, and the old DS is mostly dead. I've heard theories that IntSys is either too busy or feel too defeated (due to FE11 sales) to care about overseas players now, thus no localization.

For Nintendo products that I bought recently, I bought a Super Scope with the receiver and everything at a flea market recently this past weekend.

Yesterday, I finally bought Sin & Punishment: Star Successor, and two 3DS Point Cards. FE12 is likely going to be Japan only. No announcement whatsoever now, and the old DS is mostly dead. I've heard theories that IntSys is either too busy or feel too defeated (due to FE11 sales) to care about overseas players now, thus no localization. Probably because of the reasons wrote in several low-rated reviews of FE11 at GameFAQs. However, major critics like the ones behind Famitsu and other major video game magazines gave it positive ratings |

There's a load of sales on over here at the moment, so I picked up Wii Party, Big Brain Academy for Wii and Wii Play: Motion. I feel dirty...
Xenoblade Chronicles next month though! Bwahahaa!

I got Donkey Kong 94 on the Virtual Console a couple weeks ago and forgot to mention it here. A lot of people told me it was awesome without telling me why, and while that usually puts me off something, I figured at the very least it was another incarnation of Donkey Kong Arcade.
Ooooohohoho was I wrong. DK94 is awesome.

When I first played it, I also didn't realise it was going to be anything more than DK Arcade on Game Boy. Congratulations on experiencing it the way I experienced it in 1994! ;D

Does the 3DS version of Donkey Kong '94 include the arcade cabinet border from the Super Game Boy version, or any other SGB enhancements?

Excluding videos, the number of titles I downloaded to Nintendo 3DS in the past few weeks (including today) are: * Starship Defense (PAL: Starship Patrol / JPN: Star Ship Defender) * Alleyway * Radar Mission * Nintendo Video * Game & Watch Gallery 1 * Super Mario Land Fryguy64 was correct on the first game in the list, it is addictive. The music also sounds quite addictive, so I created my own music channel on YouTube on the day the Space Shuttle Atlantis made its final liftoff, while the first BGM I uploaded in the channel was the game's title screen theme, which was uploaded a few minutes after the final touchdown of Space Shuttle Atlantis. Here is my new music channel: www.youtube.com/user/1983parrotheadMUSICWhen I first played it, I also didn't realise it was going to be anything more than DK Arcade on Game Boy. Congratulations on experiencing it the way I experienced it in 1994! ;D Ditto. I also felt the same way, but I kind of knew that it would feature more than just stages from the original arcade version. Does the 3DS version of Donkey Kong '94 include the arcade cabinet border from the Super Game Boy version, or any other SGB enhancements? I highly doubt it. I downloaded another Super Game Boy compatible game Game & Watch Gallery 1, and it lacked its Super Game Boy features.  |

Got the new Rhythm Heaven. It's difficult.
For some reason I couldn't pass Monkey Watch even though it's one of the easiest minigames.

Nester - From what I've heard, 3DS Game Boy games do NOT feature Super Game Boy enhancements.

Recently purchased Tingle's Balloon Fight DS and For The Frog The Bell Tolls.
The other week I was lucky enough to find X on eBay, but I spent £39.99 on it, and feel like I got ripped off, seeing as they tend to go for a lot less on Yahoo Auctions Japan. It was boxed and had the instruction manual though (does anyone want me to upload any manual scans?) I completed it within a few days, but died on Mission 10 the first time for not realizing you had to have full health and can't otherwise survive the blast from the mothership. xD.

Star Fox 64 3D, bitches.  (Sheesh, even if getting hold of it took me most of the day, but at least I have it now) It definitely is an improvement over the original all around. you can't tell me what to do! Go be a Maddox wannabe on some other forum already. Christ... Listen bud, I likes you and all, but you really need to stop acting like a dick every time Parrothead posts anything. We get it. You don't like him. Stop trying to derail every thread he posts in. Some of us (me included) find him at best an insightful source of information and at worst tolerably odd. Whatever makes sense to you, Mr. "It's okay if DiU does this because fuck you". Whatever makes sense to you. |
