    200? Was it second hand?

    Tell us where so I may pine for a console I can't afford even at that price!

    It's a great price, at that money you couldn't pass it up.

    Ahem.
    Diehard Mother fans rejoice! The entire cult RPG series, known here in the states as EarthBound, is coming to the 3DS... in Japan. The game was announced in a somewhat brief Nintendo Direct held yesterday evening and the fan response is already overwhelmingly positive. The game will feature all three Mother titles, for the first time on one cartridge. The first two games have been released in the past as Mother 1+2 for the GBA, but this time Japanese gamers get the trifecta.

    Someone leaving the country on Thursday and was selling off a bunch of their stuff and taking first offer.

    I loathe the new controller! It pushes your hands into a weird diagonal angle.

    So...will someone explain to me why I saw Enda Kenny and Hulk Hogan in the same picture?

    Is there any reason why it began to pop up on everyone's feed yesterday? Earthbound Central and Kotaku reported it.

    I reckon it had something to do with the fact they were both in the same location, and somebody had a photographic device, acutely noticing the meeting of two high profile but comically mismatched individuals was a moment worth capturing and sharing on various social media platforms. Purely conjecture, mind.

    It could be another Nintendo third pillar like the DS which definitely would not replace the Gameboy line.

    And then did replace the Gameboy line!
    Poor GB Micro, died a death after the DS release.

    Whatever it is I'm hoping it will be backward compatible.
    I know this will result in another tablet based controller but I don't think that was a real deal breaker for potential customers.
    Anyway, it'll be next year before we find out.

    It really hurts to see the PS Vita port of La Mulana EX get savaged in reviews by people that just don't understand the game :rolleyes:
