See, this is the shit Nintendo does that deserves condemnation. There's no good reason to not do this (while there *might* be a good reason they're not doing crossbuy, which i suspects has to do with the Wii U and 3DS shops being environments which are more disparate than we realize)


Nintendo of Europe actually proposed the idea, so it's not "Nintendo" but "Nintendo of America."  

It is still strange that NoA couldn't support it.

Nintendo of america has always had its head-analogue up its ass-analogue, it's nothing new.

Which is more of a reason to condemn Nintendo...

Get with the times Reggie, your branch of the company needs to act faster in implementing these things so you don't get bad press.

Satoru II rocks, Reggie sucks. Business as usual. V_V

But seriously, this NoE vs NoA situation is just strange. I don't understand it at all.
Oh well, I guess I'll take advantage of the promotion and show my support for NoE.



So NoE > NoA in this generation too. NoE already showed last generation, that they are the better Nintendo.
As an European, I am happy that this trend continues.

The reason, that the WiiU to 3DS crossbuy feature doesn't work, might be that the nintendo network ID on 3DS was integrated too late. Every online WiiU has a network ID. But not every online 3DS has one ...

They are getting there, just need to share-buy with another WiiU and here comes second WiiU purchase + fully digital.

God Nintendo should just have one platform. It's gotta happen next gen.



Try to ignore that this is a yucky mobile title. It's really fun.

Played both Squids and Squids Wild West on my iPhone last year. Fun games, plus this one gets an extra chapter.

Buy it. It will work great on the 3DS and/or the Gamepad.

Whats the price by the way? $10? $15?

I am guessing that would be around $15 in the US? Not terrible pricing, but definitely more pricey than it is on mobile devices. You can grab both Squid titles for $4 total these days.

Still two full games and exclusive content which basically adds a 3rd title, so it's worth checking out, but $10 would have been nicer, but that is the price you pay when you don't play these games on a tablet or phone, you get charged more.
