Attention EuroGAF !
Seems like Code of Princess is coming March 28, for 29€.
I just received a mail from the developper.

All these games coming out on my birthday... LM2 is getting priority though (if I can rip myself out of MonHun)
And Easter's only a few days away :D

January 1,2013. So almost 3 months ago. This stuff should be released worldwide on the same day. No excuses.

It can't be released worldwide every time much like everything else as everything needs to be re-rated and different ratings boards take different amounts of time.

Oh gosh, really? What is it with the 28th having ALL THE THINGS.

3 months of nearly nothing, then, just on 3DS we get Harmoknight, Luigis Mansion 2, Code of Princess, Shin Megami Tensei Devil Survivor and the Fire Emblem demo on the same day. I wish this lot could have been spaced out a bit more...

Edit: Darn. Shouldn't wait several minutes before clicking to send my reply. Uh, yeah, what Mpl90 said.

Ha ha! Make sure you've completed Monster Hunter by then! Ridiculous.

No MH for me for now. Today Ninokuni should be at my home, and then I'll buy only Luigi (and download the FE demo, obviously)for this month. I'll wait for Harmoknight and Code of Princess, I have to. :(

Luigi is at the top of my list. I'm sure MH will come down in price soon enough, so I can wait for that (althoughh I might buy it on Wii U first). Harmoknight is fucking awesome, but it seems like a contender for a sale eventually, likewise Code of Princess,
who am I kidding, I'll buy Harmoknight immediately
. But when Fire Emblem hits, eeeeeverything else will take a back seat.
 
Its seriously stupid how Nintendo space these things out.

Imagine if we had cool stuff every week instead of nothing nothing nothing EVERYTHING nothing and so forth.

Probably just publishers assuming that Nintendo will start advertising the 3DS a lot more for Luigi's Mansion and trying to piggyback along.

Japan got it like 2 months ago.

So Zen Pinball doesn't even come with one free table?

Is there much difference between the tables? Wondering which ones I should buy.

Is this from rating boards? It's hard to look at that list and not think Nintendo is incompetent. I want all of the bolded. How I wish Nintendo had a system like Sony for retro games.

Also WTH is the Space Harrier 3D port?

It's a combination of stuff released in Japan/Europe, and stuff from the rating boards. Almost all of it is actually out in Japan though.

We do have some of it scheduled for US release (the Mega Mans, Harvest Moon/River King, the Oracle games), but a lot of it is just up in the air. And I can't believe we haven't gotten a single new GG game in a year.

I don't know what else Sega's been up to, but releasing a bunch of Game Gear titles should be a no-brainer. They've already got the emulator. So write some manuals, run them through QA and get them on the store already.

You can't be serious. Nintendo can release whatever they want worldwide simultaneously (or at least within the same week) if they chose to do so and make the proper preparations to do so, just like every other company. A NES rom from 20+ years ago is no exception.

New? NoA put up a trailer for the VC release of Castlevania.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ENSDrPpFp-Y

Finally. Of course, Nintendo botched the timing of this like they botch seemingly everything these days. Should have come out as a free download code if you picked up Mirror of Fate. I don't really understand it, but the VC has never really been used as a promotional tool for new games like it should have.

Oh well, I'll get this for sure. Love having great NES games on my 3DS. I just want more. And SNES. And GBA.
