I read that Metroid: Zero Mission's due out this week. That'll please Zero, I think. It's even named for him.

It is indeed but it's for wii U's Virtual console which might make you go but I personally love seeing that pixel-y goodness on my TV.

(side note: gamepad D-pad > 3ds D-pad)

This Week

Mario vs. Donkey Kong: Tipping Stars £17.99 (Both Versions)
Navy Commander £8.99

This week does see two games that might interest some

Excave & Adventure Bar Story both are RPG's, someone was asking for more of those and there both under £4.50 and both scored a 7/10 on NLife.

Adventure Bar Story might get downloaded (but not Excave), but it's far from a day one purchase. I'm also hoping to get Rune Factory 4, if only to stop andyman calling me a 'poo' (modesty prevents me from typing the actual word the rapscallion used ).

Andy, I am appalled! How dare you call an admin. a dung? (Again, modesty.) Hang your head in shame, young man!

In the good sir's defence, he said "BOWEL MOVEMENTS", so he was referring to more than one forumite. I felt the brunt of it, is all I'm saying.

...That means he called me a faeces too! :affraid:

Just splashed out £2.39 on a "puzzle ARPG" called Fairune, looked reasonable enough. Claims to have "simple controls & addicting (UGH) puzzle designs".

We shall see!

For £2.39 you can't really go wrong.

@Zero Why Adventure Bar but not Excave, just curious. I'm not buying either at the moment as I've got loads to play on the 3DS which I've not touched for ages.

Excave sounds more like a straight forward dungeon crawler, which lessens my interest. Adventure Bar Story sounds quirky and that increases my interest. It'll be Rune Factory 4 first, though. I will not be referred to as 'excrement' again.

RF4 is the 3DS game I am playing at the moment over MM3D & MH4U as I did get it for review quite a while ago, the hour or so I have played does seem decent enough so far but I've just not gone back to it as been to much on the PS4 to play at the moment.

Everyone should have it, so nobody should have to be any version of the word

I hope you've learned your lesson, Mr. Man949 - if you insult people on the Internet, they do what you want! Er...

Stuff this week

Pokémon Rumble World FREE
Quell Memento £3.19
My Pet School 3D £24.99, GOTY right here

There is some discounts most noticeable are
WRC FIA World Rally Championship: The Official Game for £16.99 which Fronk has brought up before but it's 2p less on Amazon
The Keep for £5.49 which Nintendo Life gave a 8/10, it's a very oldschool first person dungeon crawler
Swords & Soldiers 3D down to £5.59, I saw in the direct number 2

I'll need to check out Pokemon Rumble... but it is another F2P Pokemon game and I'm probably going to end up hating myself for playing it.

I've tried a bit of PRW, it's okay

A bit of a stealth release with Fullbox which is F2P.

Poor Fullblox. Its torturous predecessors mean that I don't give a stuff about it... even when it's free. Clearly someone enjoys it, though, and it's the kind of pricing model I'd like to see used more often. A few levels for free, and more for a one-off payment.

I think NLife gave it a 9/10 that I will download when I touch my 3DS but is poor fullbox like you said about it just coming out.

I haven't given the wii U version enough of a crack so no need for me to get this.

It looks like a fairly good way to do F2P. Shame I don't like the franchise. "Torturous" from ZJ is the right word.

Bump!

There's a decent wee sale on at the minute with most games £2 or under, it ends on the 2nd July.

Bike Rider DX2 released in Europe next week. Hi Cap.

Really looking forward to this one, although I'm not going to buy any games this month.

DoPo alert! After what feels like a bit of a lull in releases for the series, we'll finally have Picross e6 on Thursday! I'm really hoping that the series gets up to at least e17.

Any takers?

I've still not finished with Tappingo 2 having not played much on the handheld front lately (Marvel Unlimited has stolen the coveted spot of train entertainment), but I'll definitely be picking it up sooner rather than later as I've exhausted the rest of them.
