First of all, I think VVVVVV is an awesome game, but you should not list it in a budget thread. It's heavily overpriced for the 2 hours it lasts, imho. I still love the game and have it on my 3DS and it looks and plays awesome, but I still think this game should be 5 bucks max.

It lasted me 4 hours but probably 1 hour just for that fucking "Vidi, Vici, Veni" part lol.

I have it both on 3DS and PC, and yeah, unless you really want to play it on the go, the PC is more attractive price-wise. I bought it for 1.49.

I think it fits well on the 3DS but I have a hard time recommending it for 8 or 9 $ or what it costs. And yes, I'm just that good that I beat the game pretty fast in one sitting.



Ongoing bet with think-man: He wins if MH4 releases in any shape or form on PSV in 2013, I win if it doesn't.

I bought Bookstore Dream for $2 (DSiWare) and played it for 5 hours already (finishes after 99 weeks or something like that).  I wish Kairosoft would release Video Game Dev Story on the eshop.

Colors! 3D 9/10 ($7)

The Denpa Men: They Came By Wave 9/10 ($10)

Mighty Switch Force! 9/10 ($6)

and the sequel to Pullblox/Pushmo that is coming out soon Fallblox/Crashmo (I believe in USA).



Around the Network

yeah sorry, i was at work, could really explain it
here they are

Samurai G
Heavy fire
Crazy chiken piraqtes
Abyss
Crazy kangaroo+
The lost town
SpeedX 3D
FUN FUN Minigolf
Golf 3D
Go series Undead storm
Tactical defense Glory days
Gaias moon

and the list goes on and on, plus all the VC games....



I got lets golf 3D for £1.75 which is a bargain, not a bad little game either.



Since Resident Evil The Mercenaries only has one save slot I wouldn't consider it a good used game bargain unless you buy it from someone that barely played the game.



Mighty Switch Force! is a really addicting game and very good visuals for the 3DS. It makes really good use of the 3D capability without making it look gimmicky!
