Bleh. Another poor week. It would have been nice to have some other discounts and content to coincide with the Miitomo and My Nintendo launch, and would have been a nice incentive too. Guess I’ll at least give that Pokken Tournament demo a try.
Not a great selection, however will be getting Mario Super Sluggers as missed out on that the first time round.
Boy these download list’s are depressing.
I wonder which stages and characters are featured in the Pokken Demo. Probably 6 characters and 4 stages
That seems like a lot for a fighting game demo, especially with the limited characters it already has.
Pokken DEMO!!! I’ve never been more excited for one of these articles!
Too bad they released the demo BEFORE Pokken Tournament released. They would have gotten my money for the full price of the game, not sure if the discount on Amazon is them paying what you didn’t to the company or if the company is actually in on the deal & only take a portion of the discount we paid to Amazon, if they did & I actually enjoyed what little the demo allowed me to experience. Oh well. I’ll be able to get the game for cheaper than 47 something bucks later on when it gets a price cut or Nintendo gives a better discount than 20%.
*20% so that’s the bright side to this.
