The gameplay footage reminds me a bit of Monster Hunter 4. I'm not too big a fan of this input lag-based fighting strategy, you know, where everything has a wind-up and cooldown of at least two seconds and that's exactly how you as a player gets punished or how you punish the game's enemies. Nevertheless, looks cool.

Everyone was boasting around me how INCREDIBLE Monster Hunter 4 was, I bought it, it's alright. It's nothing I see myself getting addicted to, but it's fun. I guess I'm not feeling it as much. Xenoblade looks incredible honestly, especially the new one coming for 3DS next month (well not new but a port of the wii version.)

Man, the deadline for the Club Nintendo Coin redeem is coming close and I'm nowhere near 250. Looks like I'm not getting the Doc Brown Punch Out download code.

There's supposed to be a download for Flipnote Studio 3D that I really want/badly need. For USA Nintendo users, it's available until the new Club Nintendo program thingy becomes active. For Dutch users, it supposedly becomes available some time after. I find the discrepency between them disturbing, since I fear it may be a mistake on the Dutch Nintendo's part and it may cost me my Flipnote Studio. :c

For UK users, Flipnote Studio 3D will be avalible if they sign for new service that will replace Club Nintendo.

Yeah but that doesn't do me any good seeing as I'm a Dutch user and not someone from the UK.

I find it werid since to my knowledge, EU Club Nintendo is identical to all countries.

EDIT: EU Club Nintendo offers now digital games download codes. Why didn't they do this in the past years and kept it US and Japanese exclusive :(

EDIT 2: Glad this was false rumor: http://www.gamnesia.com/news/iwata-says ... RBQKvzF98E

Monster Hunter 4 isn't an RPG.

If you're talking about Xenoblade it really is hardly much of an RPG, as you ARE in near full control during battles. That's more freedom than any Pokemon. (And honestly Pokemon has been a tad dull lately)

I was talking about Xenoblade. But all RPGs bore me eventually. There's something that gets me tired of them.

Just bought Donkey Kong Land yesterday and I'm really enjoying it. I'll get the Snes ones at later time.

I have Donkey Kong Land II on Gameboy, I remember picking up the cartridge for only $2 at a flea market, was an excellent deal.

I remember seeing a boxed TurboGrafx in a local flea market a few months back. If I had more chances to wander around flea markets I would scavenge for gaming goods.

How much was that in Euro's? I almost snagged a turbografx, those things aren't easy to come by.

Nintendo is teaming up with Playboy to promote Splatoon? I can understand why they did this with Bayonetta 2 but Splatoon? Jesus.
