I'll be happy with that and some downloads, until I can pick up RE later on. There's not a lot of other retail releases that interests me right now. Luckily there are some good classics. Excitebike in 3D is 150 coins this month!

Where you getting that price? I actually liked both NSMB games, this one just looks like it's treading over the same old ground BUT WITH COINS>>>>>>.....>!>Q>

Fry's has this for $29.99 this upcoming week, featured in their ad. If not near a location, could try printing out the ad page and price-matching at BB or Walmart.

Best Buy also has an ongoing promotion whereby you get a $10 savings code for a qualifying $50+ store pick-up order.

I'm probably going to get it because I am an idiot, but watching the Giant Bomb QL is like, 'yeah this is ass'

Why does the Vita have to have no games ;(

Eager to watch if Nintendo's digital download program turns out to be the convoluted disaster that it already sounds like. Look new Mario game for download! Sure thing, what about the rest of your catalog and what hoops are third parties jumping through to partake of such a "simple" process?

You left out the part where the digital version is more expensive than the retail version. People just flat out need to stop supporting Nintendo.

[Mzo]

Why don't retail version have full install options, in case you want the physical media backup and the convenience of digital? I don't like how the industry treats two "versions" of the same damn game as completely separate.

They can get two sales from crazy people that way. Also they don't want to deal with the hassle of trying to prevent piracy (which is lame because there are ways to do this)

[FirstBlood]

Yeah, they're scared to death of piracy so even implementing a legit feature that reminds them of piracy is enough to scare them off.

It's really quite annoying.

[Rocca]

Can't wait for the XL tomorrow.

Just picked up my revised Nintendo handheld, which I had preordered at GameStop. Heh.

The screens are massive. The photos don't do it justice; you really have to see it in person.
