I stand corrected. I brought it up, because I recalled you saying something about third party games not selling on the 3DS, because Nintendo fans are closeminded (or something along those lines). There was also something about being a huge Castlevania fan, but you didn't buy the game (at least that's how I remembered it). Well, and that would make you a scumbag. Huge Castlevania fan, not buying the 3DS game, then having the nerve to accuse other 3DS owners of not buying third party games when you yourself can't even be bothered to buy a game of a series that you are a huge fan of.

Although based on the evidence above I have to say two things:

1. Assuming that the UK uses the correct format for dates like the rest of Europe (DD/MM/YY), you ordered Castlevania one month after release, presumably because you waited for a discount. That voids your "huge Castlevania fan" claim.

2. Assuming that the picture shows your complete 3DS collection, Castlevania is the only third party game. That makes your months old statement of blaming other Nintendo fans for not buying third party software just as hypocritical as I thought it is back then. You are still a scumbag, Mike.

Yeah I had a wedding in 2013 (in another country, namely the US, with a further reception in the UK which pretty much made it 2 weddings to pay for) so my funds were massively diverted at that stage meaning I couldn't afford to buy it straight off the bat as my Feb wage paid for the minister to conduct the ceremony, so I bought it soon after my March wage was paid in. However I'd hardly call £26.86 for a £29.99 game a massive discount :p

I've owned about 30 or so 3DS titles and in 2011 I was really digging it. However the Vita is just a much better portable system so most of them got sold to fund superior handheld gaming experiences. 3rd party software on the 3DS is generally a joke. Though I do now have Senran Kagura Burst as well :p

As for my months old statement of blaming other Nintendo fans for not buying 3rd party software being the issue, I stand by it. I'm an old school Nintendo fan. They've massively fallen from grace and there is just no reason to have a Nintendo console as a primary format at the moment. GCN was my last Nintendo produced primary format. I buy multi platform 3rd party releases on my primary format. Simple logic.

*edit... the mightly Rol is quoting and calling me out on things *squeal!* [/starstruck]
