EBGames has cave story 3DS set for release on November the 24th (here).
This clashes with both Super Mario 3D Land and Skyward Sword.

Originally I was interested in this, primarily because it was supposed to come out earlier this year when good games for the 3DS were hard to find. I feel it's somewhat missed the boat.

November, overall, is insane. I can't wait. I'll happily get... Gamesick? ... for all the awesomeness that November holds.

Anyway, here is a nice comprehensive video on many of the new features available in Mario Kart 7 (many of which I wasn't even aware), by David from 3DSBlog.



PALGN should totally make a Mario Kart online community thing.

Apologies for the double post, but this is definitely newsworthy.
Nintendo's Semi-Annual Financial Report has confirmed that the 3DS will support DLC and have Limited-Play Demo version of games (unsure whether this means retail as well as eShop games - but it seems it would support retail demos).

They also announced a web version of the eShop which will be accessible via PCs and smartphones, which, at first you wont be able to purchase items off, but will in the future.

There was also this interesting quote.
Quote:
We are also planning to launch the Wii U, which is the successor to the Wii, during the next fiscal year. We would like to show the final format of the Wii U at the E3 show next year. As we learned a bitter lesson with the launch of the Nintendo 3DS, we are trying to take every possible measure so that the Wii U will have a successful launch.

Anyone else importing Tales of the Abyss?

It's a reason to play 3DS again.

I can confirm Tetris 3DS is an awesome package, plenty of game modes, online leaderboards and multiplayer, AR modes and classic Tetris music. Also plays rather effectively (but not overly crazy) in 3D, and one cartridge can provide multiplayer support.

It was the first thing I did when I powered up the console the first time.

So many great 3DS games coming out over the next three weeks. Mario Land and Mario Kart are a given, but then there's Cave Story, Shinobi, Sonic Generations, Lego Harry Potter looks good and NFS: The Run will hopefully be better than Ridge Racer. And after all that, there's still a new Professor Layton for DS in december, Solatorobo too, and Kirby Mass Attack just came out.

Given the clamshell design, removable faceplate (I think) and the fact that screen protectors look like anus, I'd say no. Although a microfibre cloth to stick between the two screens would be a good investment. I know some of the launch models got scratched top screens simply by being closed with nothing in between the top and bottom half.

Has anyone found Cave Story? I can't find it anywhere, and according to EB, it isn't available through them at all.

$69 is incredibly pricey but from what I gather, it's something that is seriously limited in stock and no other stores, brick and mortar/online or otherwise will not sell.

I don't care, I need this game!

I wonder just how many copies of Tales of the Abyss actually get released in Australia?

Like 1000? Or more like 10000?

I'd say it's closer to 1000, since it's a Tales game.

Got my copy of Tales the other day from JB, really enjoying it so far, I don't often play RPG's so this is an interesting experience, but a nice change of pace.
