Thanks Nintendo for butchering Animal Crossing a game I once loved, and thanks for the fucking two dollar calculator and clock, which is on every goddamn cellphone already.
@NINTENDO_ZEALOT:That's not butchering so much as just a re-hash, which it is.
@Tidusx100:VC sucked at the very start too, plus Nintendo's really trying to keep DSiware limited to what folks make to avoid a shovelware flood, so I expect it to take more time to flesh out.
Still haven't spent my 1000 points that came with my DSi. I'm just waiting for something a little more than apps and pieces of already released retail games. How about some of the VC stuff or make it transferrable?
I just fucking love how Nintendo creates an enormous amount of special stuff, distributes it from time to time at first, and then stops entirely. So there you sit, with an unfinished collection, unless you happen to be one of the "hackers" or feel like trading with one. And as if it wasn't bad enough, they keep sending out useless messages now and then, only they don't attach anything of value, only common items or pieces clothing. It's as if they thought the games' online community and economy weren't fucked up beyond repair (from day one) already, so they decided to promote cheating by not fixing the problem. In fact, the Wii version clearly proves that the intended way of playing is to cheat. Even Wild World had some items that no one would get unless they spent all their time gathering money, and on Wii, the multiplied it with ten by adding more expensive stuff and making the already expensive stuff much, much more expensive. How am I supposed to motivate myself to play Wild World 1.1 if I know I won't ever complete my collection, when the game is centered on collecting different things? They had a great thing going at first, but then they kept screwing it up more and more, while at the same time not adding the improvements it really needed.
Can you beleive I have yet to proper play Animal Crossing? There just so many games im still finishing I have yet had to have any quality time to spend on this. Tragic, but true story... and it's stuff liek this that make me think im missing out on something special.
@Shiryu: Don't feel bad, I've never so much as touched it. I'm curious, but I have a strict Cute Limit. If I surpass it, I've been known to temporarily go batshit insane.
The last time it happened (The Sleeping Pikachu post on here triggered it), I found myself standing atop a car and yelling "WHY WON'T YOU BEARD!?" at my freshly shaven chin.
I guess that the price of a game really reflects it's sales. And maybe, just maybe, after the handful of AAA games all released the SAME WEEK drop to 40$ in a month, publishers will stop sabotaging themselves like this every year.
I'm sure that these games are great, and like the Price of Persia 40$ price drop, after LESS then a month of being out, it could have been avoided if they came out in the MANY dead weeks throughout the year. I mean, between the dipping economy and the sheer VOLUME of other titles being released, how surprising is it that a few of them got left behind and already get price cuts? And, RE5 coming in a couple months will probably sell like hot-cakes. Granted, that does have a long line of games behind it, but so do most of the games that got a drop.
Best Buy has World at War for 35 bucks on 360 for the rest of the week. I price matched it at Wal Mart and used my $25 gift card so I only paid 12 bucks for a brand new game I actually wanted. Hooray me!

@Ramza69:For $30 dollars now, it's as decent as you can get.

This isn't as addictive as Wild World was.

Might have to pick up the Wii one some day.
