    Why not sign up for a (free) account?
     
    I'm honestly shocked to see REvelations up as a digital download. I mean, that's EXCELLENT, but still...surprising.

    Damn it. I might have to download Revalaitons now that I have the 3DS save swap tool. Raid mode is just as much fun as Mercenaries, and it looks better to boot.

    EDIT- That's going to be somewhere between a 3 and 4 GB download. That's a pretty big bite out of my 32 GB card. Oh, well.

    The demo totally sold me on HarmoKnight, it's on my Wanted list, for sure.

    I've never played Legend of the River King, anyone recommend it?

    Too bad there's no Wii U stuff this week, but I'm not complaining. I have plenty of games to play at the moment!

    Yeah, Monster Hunter 3 Ultimate, Need for Speed Most Wanted and Zen Pinball 2 should keep Wii U owners busy for a while. At least until REvelations drops sometime in May.

    And I hope there are a lot of Wii U owners out there playing Tekken Tag Tournament 2, but I doubt it.

    I think I'll add HarmoKnight to my backlog of eShop games-to-buy. Dillon sequel will be next.

    - Liberation Maiden
    - Crimson Shroud
    - Fluidity Spin Cycle
    - HarmoKnight *added*

    I really want to get Legend of the River King too. I remember reading about it in EGM back in the day and it sounded fun.

    Toki Tori 2 is coming next week and from what I've played at PAX, it's excellent. It's completely different from the first game, too, except for the character movement and the cuteness of it all.

    I'll post my impressions once they're up on NWR.

    That's good to hear, I gave up on the GBC game because of some design decisions and it became a bit repetitive. I'll give the sequel a look (hope there's a demo!).

    And here it is.

    And I didn't even mention that the whistling acts as the ocarina in OoT...

    I hope Toki Tori 2 hits the 3DS eventually, too! I should really play the Virtual Console game, I've heard good things about it.

    I asked the developer, it's not. It would require too much work, 3DS can't handle the game according to them.

    I never played a Toki Tori game but this one sounds good. Was there a mention of price? I imagine it's 15$?

    Probable $15 yeah. If it's truly 20 hours long then I think the price is appropriate. The game looks great and the design early in the game is pretty smart. If they managed to create puzzles varied enough for the length of the game, it will be a fucking achievement.

    Look forward to my review on April 4th, haha.

    Not 99 cents? Not buying.

    Okay maybe I will but probably not at launch...

    You could get a Wii U. It's a portable for your house!

    Hmm... I want to download HarmoKnight but I have way too many 3DS games on the back burner right now. Eventually it will be mine.

    EIDT: Grabbin' the demo!

    Apparently Resident Evil Revelations is only $20 on the eShop? Grab it now in case it's some glitch!

    @anon_mastermind
    Ha, I would assume that's the real price since it's a year old and is $20 at every retail chain.

    What blows my mind to smithereens is that games like Star Fox 64 are still $40.

    I was pleasantly surprised to find that Resident Evil Revelations is only $19.99 on the eShop. That probably the absolute best deal available on Nintendo's online digital download store. (and it pretty much makes The Mercenaries 3D COMPLETELY obsolete, lulz) If you don't already have this game, there's no excuse not to download now. (er, unless you have a small SD card, that is) Gotta get get!

    @ludist210

    Ha ha! I already have a portable for my house. It's called a 3DS.
