Yeah, Urban Champion is an odd choice. Was it popular in Japan or something? Maybe next we'll get like Donkey Kong Jr. Math or something.

What the hell is Nintendo doing anyway? sigh.
maybe cuz no one released the US eshop information? you cant announce something you have no information to. why dont you go look it up and announce it for us since it bothers you so much.

Calm down amigo. I didn't mean 'you' as in you personally or this site or this forum. I've tried many times to look it up. I'm either Googling poorly, or the information is simply not there. I wasn't blaming anyone except Nintendo and/or "the media". I think it's weird that no one lets us know what'll be coming out week to week.

Here's a bit of a silly question, but at what time does the eShop actually update? I'm on Central time, and I checked at mightnight and 1am (my time), and it was not yet updated. Will check again at 2am (in like five minutes).

Talking about the US eShop in my case, but I think it's a valid question for the European eShop as well. Inquiring minds want to know! I'm excited to see what the new releases are.

Aw, okay. Yeah, still not up as of 2am Central. You're probably right--it's probably noon!

So the E3 trailers on the US eShop are gone now? I was JUST about to get my 3DS...

This is as bad as the WiiWare demos...

I don't mean to be cynical, but you're not missing much. :/ I hate to be a downer when people are so excited about them, but... they're just trailers. Yes, they're in 3D and it's got kind of a "wow" factor, but....... I dunno. You just ain't missing much.

What blows my mind is that people have RATED the trailers. In order to rate something, you must spend 60 minutes or more "playing" it. How many times do you have to watch these trailers in order to be able to rate them?

If I could give you mine, I would. I'm hoping they'll be taken off my "downloads" screen since they're getting taken down.

US eShop update:
Nintendo Download - July 7, 2011

Very similar to the EU update, if not the same.

Okay that's it, I'm selling my 3DS.
One fan isn't gonna make a difference to them, but it will make a difference to me as I will no longer be wasting my money on disappointment.
I'm not waiting 5 months to get another decent game (OOT being the only one at the moment) and I'm certainly not wasting money on black and white Game Boy games and shovelware.

Don't be too hasty, mate! Nothing the shops like more than someone who sells systems and buys them back later. There will eventually be plenty of good games.

I feel you, though. I'm not sure what Nintendo thinks they're doing with the eShop, and, in my opinion, they ought to have waited until Zelda and the eShop were ready at least to launch the system, and they ought to have had some killer eShop stuff.

But, that's that. These companies are run by people who understand money, not games. I for one will admit I know nothing about business.

::Yawn:: If they're going to spoon feed us crap could they at least give us good GameBoy games like Mario Land 2? I used to have a classic GameBoy and I haven't even heard of some of the junk they're trying to sell back to us. I'd be excited for a Metroid title or more Kirby or Zelda games... or something good.

I think everyone should just chill. The E-shop has only been going for a month, and already we've had, mario, zelda, donkey kong and kirby. Not to mention 3D game trailers, a game and watch game plus a free 3D classic game.

Just be patient. We've got gargoyles story and mega man coming from Japan, a couple more 3D classics, plus Nintendo will probably release Kid Icarus on the gameboy the same time as the 3DS version comes out. Which will probably happen for other releases too.

I dont want EVERY gameboy game out at the same time, or i wouldn't know what to play!

The thing is though if I sell it now and buy another in a year or so, I'll probably make money anyway. The price isn't going to remain this high forever.

Lots of negativity about the eshop in here...I've been pleasantly surprised so far by the GB stuff as I didn't think there would be much on there to interest me and have been proved wrong so far.

Qix is awesome, a classic game with timeless gameplay that a lot of people will totally miss out on.

Anyone familiar with Fortified Zone? Looks interesting for the price but for all I know it could play like crap as I've never heard of it before. Kirby is interesting me as well, but I'm not particularly a fan of the NES version and it costs more than stuff like Qix and Fortified Zone.

Any when we'll see the first 3DSWare on the eShop? I'm kind of itching for Tetris. I've got the DSiWare one, but I'm paranoid if I leave a DS title on standby, I'll miss a streetpass/spotpass (even though I haven't gotten a single one yet).

Fortified Zone isn't the best game ever, but it's 'O-K'
Kirby's Dream Land is awesome if you like Kirby.

I used to have FZ on the classic gameboy. It was OK'ish (far from great) back then. So I'd not spend my money on it today - or at least read a review.

I'm looking forward to Gargoyle's Quest. I hope it will come to the EU eShop, because that's the one classic GB game I really think was far ahead of its time.

I think we'll be seeing these by November - Early 2012:

Super Mario Land 2
Super Mario Land 3
All the GameBoy Megamans
Shantae
Mario Tennis
Kid Icarus: Of Myths & Monsters
Metroid 2
LoZ Oracle of Ages
LoZ Oracle of Seasons
Sonic Triple Trouble
Sonic Drift 2
Columns
Shinobi
Dragon Crystal
Wario Land 2
Wario Land 3
Mario Golf
Tetris
Kirby's Dream Land 2


It will have good content soon enough.

That would be really nice. have they actually announced any of those? I know they did announce Columns and Dragon Crystal.

Man, I'd buy like half of those.

I'd really like Mario Golf, too, preferably the GBA version.

They announced all 5 GameGear games I listed -- the GameBoy & GameBoy Color games are guesses, but if it's like the Wii VC, it'll happen eventually.

I think that Kirby's Dream Land is currently the best Virtual Console game to be released on a Thursday.

For the love of god, please something other than gameboy games....
I know some are good, just like some zx spectrum and commodore 64 games are good - but I really would like to see something other than gameboy games to choose from.

Nintendo has said the the DSi version will not be coming to the eshop because there is no point in releasing the old version when they are making a new version for 3DS.

Mario Picross is awesome! Don't be a hater! I'd totally buy it. I hope it comes to the US eshop soon. Not a darn thing for me this week unless I buy Baseball on nostalgia value alone (or game and watch for that matter...

Actually, I think I remember having Game and Watch on Game Boy and really enjoying it. Guess I'll pick it up if it's the one I remember. Just glad there's SOMETHING that I want. Would like to have something to buy weekly! Hopefully Xevious, Picross, Golf and Gargoyle's Quest are on their way to the US soon. I wish they'd just give us a release list.

I bought most if not all eShop games ATM. If that stupid G&W thing comes to NA tomorrow I'll be pissed because I already got 3 of the games it offers for the DS system through the CN game(s) and watch games and one was downloaded form DSiWare. This may be the 1st eShop game I pass up.

EDIT: OMFG BASEBALL IS COMING TO MORROW!!! 2 ESHOP GAMES AGAIN!!! OMFG WOOT WOOT!!! CAN'T WAIT FOR BASEBALL IT >'S TENNIS ANY DAY.

I loved the Game & Watch Collection years ago... I'd probably pick it up just for the nostalgia.

I bought the Game and Watch Collection. It's a cool little set that I enjoyed as a kid. It'll be fun for short play sessions at the dentist or whatever since there are zero 3DSWare games at the moment.

I think the DSiWare game and watch games are totally different, but I don't know. I'm not really interested in them. As cool as some of the DSiWare stuff is, I hate how the system can't streetpass or anything in DS mode.

No idea, but chances are it's in that Game and Watch Collection on the Viritual Console (1997 Game Boy release). The only one I had was Mario's Cement Factory or something along those lines.

I am just taking a guess here but I think it was the Game and Watch version of Super Mario Bros. But it is not on any of the Game and Watch Gallerys and Collections or DSiWare.

They are decent but I suggest you to waait for a (possible?) 3DSWare Game&Watch compilation, in 3D. I dream of this since the beginning.

If you buy G & W Gallery you won't need to purchase "Manhole" since that's included in the Gallery game. Furthermore, with Gallery you get three other classic G & W games, namely "Fire", "Octopus" and "Oil Panic". A really good package, and the games come in both the original version and an updated. Good value for the price.

Of the rest of the G & W games you can obtain, personally I felt "Judge", "Flagman" and "Chef" were dull. "Donkey Kong Jr." is a must-have, while "Vermin", "Helmet" and "Mario's Cement Factory" all are fun in short bursts.

Just my 2.

You are right. The game is cancelled and the prototype version also.

But anyways at the least we know that Nintendo should release Game and Watch Gallery 2 and 3 because they are Gameboy and Gameboy Color games. It depends on if Nintendo wants to add Gameboy Advance games to get Game and Watch Galllery 4.

No one knows until they reveal it. Ports do not need the extra time to announce, as it takes about a few minutes and maybe a few extra to plop a VC game in. They have announced 3D versions of Xevious and that Fighting game sometime. They don't give out exact release dates, since Satoru Iwata is trying to get them to stop trying to rush up a game to meet deadlines.

I hope Xevious is coming to the US tomorrow too. At first I didn't want it, but now I really really want it. I have no idea how my mind ended up changing like that.

I still want Zelda and Metroid over everything else though. Especially Zelda, did I mention how much I love Zelda. GOD DAMNIT NINTENDO, LET ME GIVE YOU MY MONEY. O_O

Did they improve Xevious over the slightly outdated original (beyond the 3D graphics)? E.g. Multiplayer, powerups, new enemies, new music?

Agree with the 1st part, Disagree with the 2nd part. G&W is worth the purchase even if you have 3/4 games already from various sources. but if you have the GB version already, then not worth the price.

Im going to wait on the reviews for 3D Classics: Xevious before I buy it, that's if I buy it.

Let's Golf 2 3D by Gameloft is being released on the eShop next week, on Thursday (at least in Europe) for ?5.40, so I'm buying it, to encourage them to release their other games such as N.O.V.A 2 on the eShop too, and hopefully some new games too.

It's a shoot 'em up game.

does Hearts Spades Eucher really support online play? On my DSiXL it is not listed for online play, nore does my DSi's description list online play, yet my 3DS lists online play.

on a DSi theres a way to see what DSiWare has online play, not listed there by the way.

It is 3D compatible, and it's out in Europe (at least) now.

EDIT: Sorry about earlier. It seems that you're from the U.S., so you wouldn't be able to the see the 3D video on the eShop - unless it's there already?

he is referring to the golf game I think. I would like to know where the heck my NA NINTENDO VIDEO IS! Post on page 1 says it comes out today, however I cannot purchase it. It's strange that it says you half to be online to watch the videos any way. the 3D classic your talking about is available in the 3 Major regions ATM (AUS = UK according to Nintendo)

Added after 2 minutes:

It's out now, EXCLUDING NINTENDO VIDEO!!!

Just bought the 3D classic, and saw the DSiWare.

Added Nintendo Video to my wishlist.

I appreciate the fact that the 3D classics actually require a bit of work rather than just firing out roms, but ?5.50 or whatever it is for Xevious seems awfully expensive for such an antiquated game. It looks nice (well...some of it does), and I've only really played the game very briefly in arcades or as a demo at the start of a Ridge Racer game, but the price has put me off a little bit.

Just had a go on Xevious 3D - hardly the best scrolling shooter, but it's ok - overpriced I know, but I quite like it.
Am still slightly in shock, that we got something on the eshop that wasn't a 15 year old black and white gameboy game

It seems that Nintendo Video is not coming to North America this week. There is a icon that tells you about the service and possible College Humor videos but no release date has been confirmed.

Don't make fun of a game that you know nothing about. I love hamsters especially if it's Hamtaro. This game seams to be a Hamster puzzle game though. if DSiWare counts, then Petz Hamsterz or w/e is on the eShop lolol. Nintendogs + Cats owns that ubisht any day.

whats wrong with a few non core games that some one may want? even if it's just like 50k people than thats good enough for the dev provided they make a profit. also I want those VC games DAMN! japan gets 2 vc and 2 3DSWare!?!?!? WTH! I didn't even get 2 games this week! (thought that was the new normal for NA eShop, gess I was wrong)

In short:

+ it's fun,
+ it's a classic
+ the 3D works great (it's a great showcase for the 3D effect on the 3DS)

- repetitive
- music/sound is awful
- *severely* overpriced unless you're a big fan of the original

Successfully Learning German Year 5 (Tivola) - DSiWare, €5 or 500 DSi Points


I'm am going to assume it will be the same for the US shop channel, but I will probably be wrong.
You are wrong then. Baseball is already on the eShop in NA, so unless NoA wants to con a few people and get a lawlsute then...

The golf game is a posability, and some of the others. But I think none of the Successfully learning games are on the US DSiWare.

Also myDiary came out in the UK/AUS about 2-3 (or more) months B4 NA got it. just say'n

Holy crap, actual 3DSWare! They've not tried to sell it as a ?40 title!

Baseball still sucks but ah well. Actual games!

Why are they even still publishing DSIWare... it's all so awful.

Some of the DSiWare is really good. Granted nothing lately...

I hope the golf game is good and comes to NA! I can't find anything on the internet about what'll be in NA tomorrow.

I have the iPhone version of the golf game. It's decent but nothing more than that. If anything, it's a shameless and not very good ripoff of Hotshots Golf, which was one of the finest games on the PSP.

re: baseball in the UK--lol!! Didn't even think of that. Hilarious. Maybe they'll release an NFL game next. "Why isn't it selling??"

Thats probably good enough for me, as I love Hot Shots Golf! Kind of sad that the first 3DSWare game is something kinda rinky dink tho. Would have loved a Mario Golf RPG like the Game Boy Color version. (Or they could just release the Game Boy Color version and I'd be happy.)

Ah! So much for that then! I don't understand why they do that. There never seems to be rhyme or reason.

I wonder if that means NA will be getting a different 3DSWare game tomorrow?

there are no NES classics at all... there are Gameboy and Gameboy Color classics but not NES.

And there is a baseball game for the regular Gameboy in the e-shop for the US, but i'm not sure on what countries have what there.

In short:

+ it's fun,
+ it's a classic
+ the 3D works great (it's a great showcase for the 3D effect on the 3DS)

- repetitive
- music/sound is awful
- *severely* overpriced unless you're a big fan of the original
Took the words right out of my mouth. (litterly)

yeah, nobody ever seems to know what's going on ahead of time. I wish Nintendo would just give us a schedule, even just a few days ahead of time.

Regardless, I wonder if this golf game is good? I do love me some golf. And it's 3D and gimmicky yay.

Sort of annoyed not to get Picross.

Didn't end up getting Golf today because I ordered a new memory card instead in light of this free game news. I will buy the moment the new card arrives.

Hmm, the 2GB isn't going to be big enough? I figured it would be enough for me for a while. I don't mind buying a bigger card tho. I'd actually like it if the games (3DS stuff especially) were larger file sizes since it doesn't have to be crammed into the on-board memory like DSiWare sadly does.

It probably will be, but I figured if I upgrade now I won't have to worry about doing it later on in the 3DS's life

I can't confirm at all, but I'd be 90% sure they'd run the same as they do in Japan and NA. I think the only difference between territories is the lock-out as far as hardware itself goes. I think DS games were completely identical across territories (with exceptions of language and whatever other edits they made).

Could be wrong.

the lets golf game uses like 1540 blocks or something like that, and took longer than most other downloads to download. It's a nice game so far but the graphics are a B at the most.

The 3D is nice! I'm having a bit of trouble figuring out the nuances of the controls (no tutorial?), but it's not too different from Hot Shots or Mario Golf. I think it's okay for $6. I didn't figure it'd be as good as Hot Shots or Mario, but I wanted some golf, and it was shiny and new and 3D, and I don't really regret it. Maybe if it gets terrible reviews I'll think, "I wish I wouldn't have bought it."

It seems to take some of the worst elements of Hot Shots, like the way we "Americanize" the Japanese game (Hot Shots) and make it about as dorky as Extreme Wipeout Challenge or whatever that show is called that we stole from Japanese TV.

You'd think Nintendo would want to publish some 3DSWare.

DS games were different in PAL.I don't know if they run at 50hz or just some games run at 50hz but they were indeed different.
3DS games are identical though.

It's kind of lame that Nintendo doesn't put out a press release announcing what's coming for NA.

That said, wasn't that Game Boy Pac-Man pretty well received back in the day? I'd buy that for $3 or whatever.

Worrying that there isn't more 3DSWare and that the Virtual Console seems so sparse. Guess we'll have to see what NA gets. I'm still kind of wanting Golf and Picross. DEFINITELY wanting Gargoyle's Quest.

Nintendo is making The Rolling Western, and some other 3DS download game.

Also The golf game has an instruction booklet like all the other 3DS software downloads click on the golf icon to focus on it then look for the instructions button.

*IF* using DSiWare then the instructions will be inside the game somewhere.

you have to admit, releasing a black and white version of pacman is really stupid, i mean they could have released the nes/GBC version of pacman, but they decided to put the black and white version...and it's probably going to cost 5 dollars, and that's overpricing.
sure, most of the GB game son the eShop cost 5 to 7 dollars, but this is PACMAN we are talking about here, you can get it for 50 cents in COLOR.

...Black and white pacman? They decide to put THIS on the eshop right after Pacman & Galaga Dimensions came out?

I'm starting to think that the person that picks out these games is the same one that said the 3DS should be sold at $250. Fire them.

That would be a yes.
And if I were to pick, Id pick Xevious over this.
Why port over a LTTP which would sell, when you could change the sprites and music from one game and make money that way.

Hmmpf.

Japan gets all the games I'm interested in and the rest of the world gets the games I'm not.

It would have been nice if they'd done the Donkey Kong Game Boy game with a "Super Game Boy" option, too. I can't believe they didn't. I played that game a lot on my Game Boy Pocket back-when, but I also played it on my Super NES via the Super Game Boy, and it had a ton of enhancements.

Oh, Nintendo. So many odd decisions.

Sadly Nintendo ticked off the dolphins after a prototype of the gamecube was called "the dolphin" which illegaly uses the dolphins name.

Looks like a fun game, but one problem:



The boxart does not fit the game at all.

Nintendo, where is my Metroid II: Return of Samus, Super Mario Land 2: The Golden Coins and Wario Land? and Legend of Zelda: Oracle of Ages and Season, and Metal Gear Solid (also know as MGS: Ghost Babel), and Shantae GBC, and... oh god there's too many of them ;-;

I hope they release Serpent for the Virtual Console. Was a very addicting game for the GB. I still have it, but my GBA is not in the best of shape to play it sadly. :/

They need to release Mystical Ninja: Starring Goemon for the N64 for Wii's VC and need to focus on more GBC games cause while the GB was great for its time and all I dont think alot of ppl who got a 3DS got it to play GB games >.<

Why do we only have one GBC game in our VC list? What the hell are you doing Nintendo?! How about give us some games that, we ACTUALLY want.

I'm still waiting on:
R Type DX
Metal Gear Solid
Dragon Warrior III
Zelda Oracle series
Wario Land 3
Bionic Commando

And if you're gonna release some sports games, at least do the color ones...

Oooooo R-Type. I used to have that on my GB - totally forgot about that. Now I want that one.

But they're not going to give us R-Type, because it would be TOO FREAKING AWESOME! They insist on giving us the dross nobody bought back then either.



FFFFFUUUUUUUUUU!

Have there ever been theories as to why Nintendo puts out such crap for downloads? Are there problems with licensing keeping them from releasing good stuff when they want to and forcing stuff like Fortified Zone and Avenging Spirits out? With the strong start we got with Donkey Kong (even though it had no Super Game Boy mode) and Zelda DX, I thought they'd release stuff I cared about. Generally anything first-party is going to be superior to what we've gotten so far.

I want Dragon Warrior III really bad.

At least Europe gets to be disappointed ahead of time. NA never knows until the shop updates since Nintendo doesn't bother to give out a press release.

Pretty cool! This is all for Europe, though, right? I'm sure NA will catch up eventually. It's just odd they don't have a release schedule for NA the way they do for Europe. Maybe Nintendo thinks Europe cares more.

In my opinion, SML2 and Metroid will be 2 of the best games for the VC.

If I'm not mistaken, they didn't get those two games yet, just that they're getting them by the end of this year. Gargoyle's Quest will be released next week in Europe as well.

Also, how in the hell is Urban Champion's a 3D classic? Can anyone explain that one to me?

Aw, okay. Well NA should be getting them too then, I'd imagine.

I think Nintendo chooses games for "3D Classics" based upon their potential for 3D, not their gameplay value. Or a mix of both, I don't know. They make some incredibly bizarre decisions when it comes to the games they're putting out on the VC. I thought maybe they'd've learned from their mistakes on the Wii, but I dunno. Or maybe the Wii VC started out better than this?

This is really awesome. Mario Land 2 was one of my favorite Game Boy games, and I've always wanted to try out Metroid 2. I've always heard that Metroid 2 is considered the "Black Sheep" of the series, and even though I've seen gameplay of it, it's not the same as playing the real thing.
