Etrian Odyssey 2!!! Finally! If you’ve missed the first one in this series, make sure to get this one. It improves on everything and I highly recommend it to any hardcore RPG fans. And get it this week, it’s only 30$ and after this week it will be one of those title that’s impossible to find. Also, Mitch will be getting the new tamagotchi game. They still make them even though he’s the only one buying them.
Space Invaders Extreme
This looks like the one worth dollars.
Has anyone played / enjoyed etrian odyssey? Looks tempting, but also seems like it will be entirely obsolete when games like ASH and Dragon Quest come out for ds.

Actually, I’m totally looking forward to “Wacky Races”.

Corner Shop 3 looks pretty sweet, lots of improvements over the second title and tons of new features. I think these are some of the few games that can be carried on art direction alone… the first title was barely a game, but I still bought the sequel, and now I’m pumped for the third. Weird.

It’s definately Space Invaders Extreme week.
And… what’s up with WiiWare/VC sucking lately?

“ASH and Dragon Quest come out for ds”
Entrian Odyssey and Dragon Quest are both on the more “hardcore” end of the spectrum, but EO is really a super oldschool dungeon crawler… They are honestly extremely different in many ways. I don’t think anything is going to make it obsolete in the way, say, FFIV will make getting FFIII not as exciting.

Yo! Edgar
What about this game? “Black Sigil Blade of the Exiled”
Why wasn’t this game on the list?
The game is being released this month.
It’s like an old SNES rpg.
Which isn’t a bad thing.

I’ll pass on EO2. Edgar I’m afraid I must disagree with you on EO1. I was not a fan of it. At all. Both that and Luminous Arc were probably the worst RPGs I’ve played in a while.
I’m still saddened that Mistwalker and Namco/Bandai are withholding their DS RPGs from us. I love RPGs, the above dislike of EO notwithstanding, and I’ve been wanting ASH, Tales of the Tempest, and Tales of Innocence to come over for a while now. /sigh
