What exactly is Phoenix Wright? I’ve always heard about it… I do think it’s something that involves lawyers or court cases or something? But seriously, what is it?
It’s basically what you wrote…
Yeah, but I always hear people talking about how hyped they are for these games. Why would anyone be hyped for a game that’s just about court cases? There has to be something special about the games that I don’t know about. Hm…
It’s a text based game. There is no walking around or controlling your character, from what I heard.
And what is with these Eshop releases? This close to Christmas I would think Nintendo would start releasing some good classic games. I hope the Eshop doesn’t become a dumping ground for Iphone and spamware games. I think there has to be a point where Nintendo cuts off certain games from releasing. They have to maintain a small bit of quality for the Eshop, right?
Steel empire is quite good, not worth more than $15 being a fairly short game
Again the 3DS get A shit ton of content while the Wii U only got Shit .
Armillo is 50% off as well.
