Former something....

Around the Network

I will finally be able to see this series. 



 

Cool, this brings my 3DS planned purchases up to three. Two of which are now Wii ports.



Awesome! I have Beat and Fate, and they are easily my 2 favorite WiiWare titles. I just never got around to getting the other ones, so now I'll just wait for this. With a good set of headphones, this will be awesome.



LISTEN TO THE FIRST WORLD PODCAST REAL GAMERS, REAL AWESOME

Chalk up another 3DS purchase!

I have Beat, and I loved the game. The soundtrack was fantastic, and made it worth it to get to Hyper Mode just so you could hear the music in its prime.

I always wanted to get the others, and now I can. In 3D. And I can play it anywhere. >:)
