The title's misleading it should be "The Latest Humble Bundle: For All the Nintendo Fans in US"

Before anyone else brings up region lock and whatnot, Nintendo did try to make this a world-wide offer.

You know they could have made the Wii U region free like PS4 and Xbox One but they didn't. At least they're starting to realise that region locking is bs and want to change from that backwards mentality that Nintendo has.

Well, you seem to care about it, because you posted in a thread about it.

They launched the system 2 1/2 years ago. What's done is done, so they are doing what they can with what they set long ago. As it is, there's probably a lot more that's required of them to have their systems go region-free than simply changing a few bytes in the system, and I don't mean with just an update to the system, but regarding things like business affairs.

Ha, like Nintendo will ever put their first party titles out for anything less than full retail price. They don't even like doing sales or price cuts. I guess having a failed project makes you greedy when it comes to the one thing still generating profit.
To be fair, I picked up Super Mario 3D Land for free during one of their offers. I immediately ttraded the code for a good game, but that's besides the point. :P

I'm hoping this is a sign of humble bundle supporting more platforms. I'd love to see support for more platforms in the future

Stealth Inc 2, Steamworld Dig, OlliOlli, and Guacamelee are all pretty good indie games, but they're all also available on non-Nintendo platforms. They've been very cheap on Steam for some time. It also annoys me that some of the games are only available on the WiiU while some are only available on the 3DS...seems to me they could have at least put together a list of games available on both. Most people probably only own one or the other, myself included.

Man, SM3DL is a really solid Mario game. If you like platformers at all you should have kept it, or buy it :)

Having played and beaten SM3DL, I can safely say it was boring, bland, and a waste of the little bit of cash I spent. It just felt so uninspired, like most Mario games anymore. Like Nintendo wanted to try, but didn't have the time, so instead what we got was a pseudo-3D Mario game almost devoid of challenge and length.

Edit: Whoops, I kinda got confused with Land and World here, but the comment can go for both games anyway ^^

I get why you find it boring, the game is too easy. It sounds like you should have stopped playing sooner if you disliked it as much as you say. Have you unlocked all of the secret worlds?

I also found Super Mario 3D Land to be one of the better Mario titles from the recent past, which is kinda the same game but different.

I went ahead and bought it. Some of the games I already have, so I'll probably give the extra codes to a couple of friends who can barely afford games, due to being stuck at terrible jobs. Some great 3DS games here, though a couple of bad ones as well, or at least what I'd consider bad. There's also some great games on the Wii U here, but I already have them on PC and they're probably a lot better on PC anyway. Either way, just with some of the 3DS games on there, I'd say it's worth $10.

It's a shame it's US only. I hope this pushes Nintendo a bit more to go region free.
