Nintendo Download Updates – 20 Reasons why this week’s update sucks
This week’s eShop update sucks for Aussies. Complete filth it is.
Sure there’s a nice discount on Guacamelee!: Super Turbo Championship Edition, something even I’ve been waiting for and there’s a couple of interesting Virtual Console games but what really sucks is the games we’re not getting and the discounts as well.
Let’s take a look at this, here’s a list of games that are coming to the eShop in Europe this week. Look at it all, it’s marvelous isn’t it. So many games, so many games on sale.
But we’re getting only three. In fact we’re missing out on twenty games and/or offers. This isn’t Nintendo’s fault, this is thanks to the ongoing shittiness that is our classification system.
Now this usually happens every week, we miss out on something but never usually on this scale.
So here’s our update, all three items*
Wii U Virtual Console
Ufouria: THE SAGA (Sunsoft, NES VC) $6.50
Wii U eShop Downloads
Guacamelee!: Super Turbo Championship Edition – Now $12.40
3DS Virtual Console
Mighty Final Fight (NES VC, Capcom) $6.50
*It is possible some of these games not include may be released or classified before Thursday.
If this is the sacrifice we make to get the new 3DS before everyone else, so be it.
Aint eem mad, don’t really like any of those games in the top screenshot and I don’t buy VC roms.
I dig the tags haha
Still no word on:
Scram Kitty
Shovel Knight (though it has been classified)
.. and half a dozen other shop games Ive forgotten because they’ve been delayed so damn long.
Guy boot up the UK eShop can get scram there, scram isnt coming to aus eshop due to fees
create an uk nnid and then use it to access the uk eshop by changing region to UK
pretty simple
Thanks for the advice Nicholas. I didn’t realise quite how easy that would be.
– change region
– log out
– create new UK ID
– go to the shop
– buy with credit card
– download
– change region back
– log back in with usual ID
So I now have Scram Kitty!
