      1. @northernnarwhal i didnt know the game was avaliable for 3DS

        Friday, 06-Mar-15 00:00:19 UTC from web
        1. @mushi Yeah, Nicalis did a 3DS port with new graphics. It's pretty good, though I find the quaint nature of the original pixelated graphics to be especially striking.

          1. @northernnarwhal hm, i woul dpreffer playing on the 3Ds if i can when i have one again i might see if i get the game again

            1. @mushi If you still have a regular DS or a Wii it's available on both of those too.

              1. @northernnarwhal i have a wiiu, but it doesnt accept my credit card, so i might check if the DS does

                Friday, 06-Mar-15 00:09:45 UTC from web
                1. @mushi Can you buy Nintendo Points anywhere in Brazil?

                  Friday, 06-Mar-15 00:10:05 UTC from web
                  1. @northernnarwhal they dotn sell those in brazil

                    Friday, 06-Mar-15 00:10:46 UTC from web
                    1. @mushi Ahh, so you're stuck with your credit card then. I'm surprised your WiiU doesn't accept yours, my brother has used his credit card on his WiiU in the past.

                      Friday, 06-Mar-15 00:13:14 UTC from web
                      1. @northernnarwhal maybe it doesnt accept because it is set for USA, then it becomes international purchase, and if i format it and set it ot brazil i lose access to the e-store. But that is werid, i bought child of light with the credit card for wiiu onc

                        Friday, 06-Mar-15 00:14:47 UTC from web
                        1. @mushi *once

                          Friday, 06-Mar-15 00:15:15 UTC from web
                        2. @mushi Yeah, my brother just has it set to Canada and hasn't had any problems. Not sure why you lose access when you set it to Brazil.

                          Friday, 06-Mar-15 00:16:02 UTC from web
                          1. @northernnarwhal brazil doesnt have access to the wiiu E-store

                            Friday, 06-Mar-15 00:16:28 UTC from web
                            1. @mushi Oh, that sucks. Does it cost more to make an international purchase?

                              Friday, 06-Mar-15 00:17:59 UTC from web
                              1. @northernnarwhal The dollar is costing nearly R$3 right now, so it is pretty much the same price now for most of the games

                                Friday, 06-Mar-15 00:18:59 UTC from web
                                1. @mushi Worst case scenario, didn't you get the PC version of Cave Story?

                                  Friday, 06-Mar-15 00:20:14 UTC from web
                                  1. @northernnarwhal i had, but i lost it the last time i formated the laptop

                                    Friday, 06-Mar-15 00:21:02 UTC from web
                                    1. @mushi It and the translation patches for it are all still free if you want or if you can't get the game elsewhere.

                                      Friday, 06-Mar-15 00:26:21 UTC from web
                                      1. @northernnarwhal yeah, if it where cheap i'd preffer paying for it on one of my consoles, but now i'd need to pay R$60 for a 15 dollars game. meh, someday i might download the game again, maybe

                                        Friday, 06-Mar-15 00:28:20 UTC from web
                                        1. @mushi That's the spirit. How far in did you get when you first played it?

                                          Friday, 06-Mar-15 00:32:47 UTC from web
                                          1. @northernnarwhal not much far, i had just reached that mimiga city

                                            Friday, 06-Mar-15 00:33:37 UTC from web
                                            1. @mushi Did you get to the first battle with Balrog there?

                                              Friday, 06-Mar-15 00:35:19 UTC from MuSTArDroid
                                              1. @northernnarwhal i fought someone there, i do not remember who it was

                                                Friday, 06-Mar-15 00:36:35 UTC from web
                                                1. @mushi Did he look sort of like a blue box with big eyes?

                                                  Friday, 06-Mar-15 00:37:28 UTC from MuSTArDroid
                                                  1. @northernnarwhal i dont rememebr >_>

                                                    Friday, 06-Mar-15 00:38:13 UTC from web
                                                    1. @mushi Yeah, you weren't far at all into the game.

                                                      Friday, 06-Mar-15 00:40:29 UTC from MuSTArDroid
                                      2. @northernnarwhal Is the version on cavestory.org legal?

                                        Friday, 06-Mar-15 00:35:00 UTC from web
                                        1. @mrmattimation Yes, the version on that site as well as the translation patches on that site are all entirely legal. The original PC version of the game was released as freeware by the creator.

                                          Friday, 06-Mar-15 00:36:55 UTC from MuSTArDroid
                                          1. @northernnarwhal Neato.

                                            Friday, 06-Mar-15 00:37:14 UTC from web
                                            1. @mrmattimation Yeah, it's actually quite amazing to think that the guy spent around 4 years developing, designing, writing the story and music, as well as everything else all on his own and just releases it for free.

                                              Friday, 06-Mar-15 00:39:37 UTC from MuSTArDroid
                                              1. @northernnarwhal Stuff like that happens more often than you think. Particularly in the old Click communities, 90% of the stuff made there was freeware. (Granted, around 80% of it was junk, but there was some pretty legitimately good stuff.)

                                                Friday, 06-Mar-15 00:46:46 UTC from web
                                                1. @redenchilada True, though I'm not just impressed that it's freeware but more so that the guy put in 4 whole years and did everything for the game, then still released it as freeware. I seldom see games of Cave Story's size, scope, and quality released for free.

                                                  Friday, 06-Mar-15 00:51:34 UTC from MuSTArDroid
                                                  1. @northernnarwhal It's definitely on the higher end of quality for freeware games, yeah. On an unrelated note, have you ever played Knytt Stories?

                                                    Friday, 06-Mar-15 00:53:14 UTC from web
                                                    1. @redenchilada I haven't played that game in particular though I am familiar with Nifflas as a developer and have played as well as enjoyed some of their other works.

                                                      Friday, 06-Mar-15 00:56:02 UTC from MuSTArDroid
        2. @mushi Scratch that, Nicalis did the Wii and DS ports, Nippon Ichi did the 3DS port.

          Friday, 06-Mar-15 00:03:32 UTC from web
          1. @northernnarwhal Actually, scratch that. Nicalis developed the 3DS port, it's just that Nippon Ichi published it. Okay, that's right.

            Friday, 06-Mar-15 00:05:03 UTC from web
          2. @northernnarwhal hm, maybe i could check the version for DS

            Friday, 06-Mar-15 00:08:29 UTC from web
            1. @mushi It should be in the eshop as far as I know
