    Why not sign up for a (free) account?

    Batman 3DS is $29.99, eh? Not a bad price. Wonder if the game's good?

    @Zero
    Same here, will get it as soon as I can though.

    I picked up an eShop card yesterday so I'm all set to download Phoenix Wright today. So excite.

    Is Batman really $10 less on the eShop? If that's not a typo, I might jump on that...

    Phoenix Wright is getting pretty good reviews as well. I mean, as good as the series ever gets. It seems to be one of those series that fans love more than reviewers.

    So Phoenix is out today? My wife will be rushing to Best Buy after work I guess!

    I sit alone and in tears waiting for my beloved Edgeworth 2... Why, Capcom? Why?*

    *Because I was one of the only three people to buy the first one over here, I know. I know...

    My little niece is obsessed with Monster High, I wonder if the game is pure shovelware or not.

    @rebonack

    I'm going off of what I read. It's likely $39.99, but I don't know for sure. Pac-Man and the Ghostly Adventures was also a curious one, so I left the price off (it's listed $20 cheaper at retail).

    @-JKR- Maybe they will release it digital-only someday if that works out for this game?

    Hmm, but it never got a translation did it? And these games have a bunch of dialog and players have to make decisions and solve things based on dialog and blah blah blah, so that would be a real job there.

    @-JKR-
    It's digital only, so unless she wants an eshop card, there's no point in that.

    Already got 40 bucks sitting in my 3DS eShop wallet. As soon as I get home, the download begins. And I finished Fire Emblem Awakening last night too, just in time!

    @-JKR- It would be nice to get Edgeworth 2, but I wasn't crazy about the first one. Courtroom drama just isn't the same without the courtroom!

    Oh man, I'm on the last chapter of FE, just been so distracted by Pokemon/Animal Crossing/Monster Hunter lately. Then I have SMTIV waiting... how will I find time for Phoenix?? 3DS killing it this year.

    @DeputyVanHalen

    Oh! I didn't realize! Huh. Well that solves that then! :)

    @nate38

    I just liked the characters in Edgeworth 1 better than any Phoenix game. Not sure why, he's not technically as likable as Phoenix. But he's my favorite character from that universe.

    Apparently both Sonic: Lost World games aren't all that great.

    Dat Sonic cycle.

    Miles Edgeworth is the best! The character I mean. What a G.

    Really want to get now but Amanda and I are finishing Apollo Justice first (we're on the third case). We might skip Miles Edgeworth and come back to it later. I don't think we should be missing anything story wise, right?

    The Wii U game is getting some mediocre reviews and I've seen some 9/10 reviews for it too. I haven't seen anything other than mediocre reviews for the 3DS game yet.

    @GameDadGrant

    The IGN review had a lot of "this isn't fast enough" in it, so maybe that impacts it a little. Still not looking at a gem, though.

    It is also worth noting that the Wii U version of RE: Revelations is 19.99 through 10-31, and the 3DS version (along with Mercenaries) is 9.99. I'll be triple dipping on Revelaitons this weekend!

    Oh, nice. I may pick up Revelations then! (for Wii U)

    @Deerock69

    Yeah, just read that. That's a steal for either version of Revelations (Mercs too, but it should have started at that price IMO).
