Kirby and The Amazing Mirror - review

A portion of a NWR review...

Kirby & The Amazing Mirror is a fun Metroidvania-esque ride, but it is not without its faults. The extra AI Kirbys don't always do what you want them to do, and the lack of the multiplayer option is disappointing. If you can get past this though, you get a game that plays well and is a unique take on the Kirby formula.

Circle says OFLC ratings process hinders their ability to release games in Australia

Honestly, if Australia rating system just like ESRB, simple, fast and free to use, we think there will have more eShop games released.

4 Corner Games talks I've Got to Run's potential EU release, NA pricing & release date

A portion of a Nintendo Life interview with 4 Corner Games' Syrenne McNulty...

NL: So far you've only confirmed a North American release — can you outline the reasons for this?

SM: Of course. I’m sorry to say that I’m effectively broke and can barely afford anything, let alone international ratings. The ESRB has a great system wherein, if your game is download-only, your age rating is free. The other ratings boards, however, aren’t so progressive. I’d love to release in Europe – I have great friends who live in Europe, and I know that some people over there are looking forward to the game. To the European audience: Thank you. I understand you're wanting the game out there. Short of a Kickstarter or IndieGoGo campaign for the game to get a European release, I have to rely on the game to sell well enough to both justify itself and cover at least most of the ratings. I’m exploring different ideas as far as releasing worldwide, including (and nobody wants to hear this) releasing only in PEGI territories, or seeking a publisher for a European and Japanese release.

NL: How important is the budget pricing in terms of driving sales for I've Got to Run!?

SM: Budget pricing is a necessity. As many are quick to point out, there are many (less featured) runners available for free on PC and mobile devices. For $2 players are getting a 60fps experience across two screens on a console, that’s been polished and has three modes, with Miiverse score sharing. I comfortably feel okay charging $2 for that. I would feel considerably less comfortable charging $5 to $10 for that. I have absolutely no clue what to expect for sales, but I’m hoping for the best – and I’m hoping that the price point I chose is low enough for an impulse buy. Maybe even with the Digital Deluxe Points from a game like Mario Kart 8?
I would like to take this opportunity to address the issue of the “disparity” between the United States price of $1.99 and the Canadian price of $2.19. I have heard things said, including in your own comments section, such as “another developer screws Canada”. As of the time of release, $2.19 CAD is between $1.99 and $2.00 in USD in the exchange rate – the same price. I don’t like seeing the higher number any more than anyone else, but I feel the game should be sold at $2 USD. If I release in Europe, the pricing structure will be similar if not identical.

NL: Is Q2 still the release target, or can you narrow it down?

SM: All I’m saying is Q2, sorry. I would have to fail Nintendo’s Lotcheck many times for it to slip into Q3, but I will narrow it down by saying that it’d be unreasonable to expect it in April. There are absolutely no guarantees, but I hope to have it out before Mario Kart 8 launches.

GrubberGamer's online deals - April 11th

Time to catch up on the latest pre-order discounts and bonuses - let's get started!

If you've been holding out for Lego The Hobbit on Wii U, a number of pre-order offers are still in place for the game's release April 22nd. Gamestop's bonus is perhaps the most notable, as your pre-order entitles you to an exclusive Good Morning Bilbo Baggins Lego mini-figure. These figures are apparently only available with a pre-order of the game, so it's definitely worth considering if you're a Lego collector, want a fine gift for a Lego fan, or are just looking for something to flip on Ebay to help offset the game's cost.

Amazon is offering a $10 store credit with Lego The Hobbit purchases & pre-orders, while Best Buy will knock ten bucks off your purchase when you buy both Lego The Hobbit and the recently released The Hobbit: Desolation of Smaug movie on Blu-Ray.

If you've been considering Mario Golf: World Tour for 3DS, both Amazon and Walmart are offering the title for $29.99 with pre-order. This is a savings of five or ten dollars, depending. (There's some contradiction as to the final MSRP - Amazon and Best Buy seem to think it's $39.99, but Gamestop is holding at $34.99.)

Conception II: Children of the Seven Stars releases for 3DS on April 15th, with the first printing set as a Special Edition with bonus CD soundtrack and box packaging. This edition isn't exclusive to any one retailer, but given the niche nature of the title and Best Buy having currently sold out of their initial allotment, you may want to pre-order the game sooner than later if you've been meaning to lock in a copy. It's still available via Amazon, Gamestop and Walmart.

Before I finish up, I'd like to mention a new feature I've added to the regular mega-deal list you'll find post-jump. Along with the usual game discounts for 3DS, Wii, Wii U and DS, you'll also find new pre-order comparison tables for 3DS and Wii U! I hope this'll come in handy when comparing pre-order offers amongst some of the more popular retailers - not only prices but bonuses as well. Hit the jump to check it out, and as always, thanks for reading!
