Cart only copy of Pilotwings Resort on the 3DS.

I really enjoyed that game - really relaxing, although one of the modes means finding stuff - I have all bar one and never been able to find it!

Q*Bert. Cute characters. Impressive for its time...but just plain fiddly, frustrating and no fun at all to actually play. There's a reason why it hardly ever gets remade or included in billions of compilations like the likes of Pacman, Galaga & Donkey Kong etc do. I love Q-Bert and the Gameboy vers...

I'm guessing that we won't see Super Mario 64 on any forthcoming Nintendo Online virtual console thing now?

And it's already the second biggest selling game of the year just on the pre-orders: https://www.ign.com/articles/super-mario-3d-all-stars-is-already-amazons-second-best-selling-game-of-2020 I'd be rather hoping that the takeaway for Nintendo is that lots of people will jump on a value compilation ...

I'd think it's easy to look at it as a glass half-empty in that we're getting a three game compilation that could easily have been four, five or even six games given that Galaxy 2 and 3D Land are being left out while 3D World gets its own release.

I've cancelled my preorder for the console and additional pad. I got an email from Amazon last night saying the release date of the extra pad and multitap is now 31st December 2020.

so I've decided to cancel it all and see if it comes out this year.

I wonder if thats just a place holder?

Doom 1, 2 and 3 in the nintendo eshop sale - change from a fiver - I couldn't help myself!

Argos is having a sale on 3DS games and there are some pretty good games to boot! https://www.argos.co.uk/search/3ds/opt/sort:price/ The likes of Warioware Gold, Fire Emblem Warriors, Metroid Prime Federation Forces and more for just £5.99, even the Yo-kai Watch games are under £4 each.
