I wil no longer be buying games from them in this country. Granted I can get games cheaper elsewhere but I like supporting the local economy as I can afford to do so.  However it is impossible to do if you keep cancelling games. The sad part is even gamecube days had better support of local software.

We barely get any games as it is but to fucking cancelled NG3RE which was already rates is a fucking joke. Just another game to go down this path here.

Next time I run into an ex ebgames employee who got fired for the lack of sales and ended up doing a life of crime and ended up in jail as somones bitch, I will blame you.

How is the eshop in Australia? Do you have most eshop games (indie and retail) that are on NA eshop right now?



Lolz. Nintendo really needs better branches.

It is the worst digital distribution store(s) i have ever seen. The Wii U store is missing a lot of content and the 3DS store is only just being fixed (previously if you tried to buy a lot of Nintendo's first party games you get a message - "This product is not for sale on the eShop. Please visit your local retailer to buy it ($59.99 RRP)".)



NoAus are pretty damn annoying, whats worse is that every game is at the rrp for like a year. if you put the name Mario on it, it will stay within $10 of the rrp all freaking gen. no kidding you the rrp has dropped between the Wii launch and WiiU launch (Thank Fuck, $99 is insane) however this means Super Mario Galaxy costs more than WiiU games, WTF. Digital distrobution as a whole is fucked here. A new game releases and will cost you $79 at EB or $69 at JB. psn, eshop or xbl... $89-99. HOW THE FUCK DOES THAT WORK

You're right though, many of Nintendo branches aren't really that good.



ozgameshop.com my friend. Cheapest games you can get in OZ. They are UK based, the games usually take 4-5 days to come in but you save money. I think you can still get ngre as well.



Nintendo only really cares for Japan and that is a fact.



As an Australian gamer, I stopped buying games locally a long time ago. The prices are daylight robbery and the amount of games we miss out on is shameful.

I get all my games from the UK; they're the same region, and just 60% of the price.

EB games can go to hell.



not to mention that Skyward sword is STILL 99$ at EB and twilight princess is 50$ PREOWNED (look it up for yourself if you don't believe me)
