Fusion on eShop?

Postby Faybro » 08.11.11 1:06pm

How do I get Fusion on the eShop? Isn't it supposed to be available today? Yes, I am an ambassador (or so the news thing says).

No... Today was the threshold for people to register themselves as Ambassadors. Our games will start coming in September. Some NES games (I'm not sure if five or ten) will be available at September 1st, and the GBA games will be released sometime in October, November or December, though we don't know if they'll be released separately or all at once. Personally, I think I'd rather have one game a week between the beginning of September and the end of December, but I can't complain much.

Oh; I misunderstood it as Metroid Fusion being released early to ambassadors to celebrate the 25th anniversary.

It will be released early and free for us, but I don't think the game (and probably the whole GBA emulation engine for the 3DS) is ready for release yet. I think it's going to be one of the first few GBA games to be released, so don't worry.

Starting September 1st: NES games

Later this Year: GBA games

My guess is that they'll role them out 5 a month for the rest of the year (September, October, November, December)

Hmm... Would be nice if they had a November release to coincide with the 9th anniversary of the game's release :)

I admit I was a little confused, but Nintendo's news post never mentioned a release date. "When they're good 'n ready" is as good an answer as any :cool:

They should've released Fusion on 9/1. :evil: Although it would be nice if they changed the ledge grab to that in ZM. (the one in Fusion is horrible and ridiculous. :geemer: )

I'm not sure if this is true, but I believe the emulation process takes some time. Not to mention that they are doing this of several other games.
