A demo for Pyramids is coming to the eShop this Thursday in Europe

25 Comments

Nintendo of Europe has revealed that there will be a demo for Pyramids on the eShop this Thursday. This makes it the first eShop game to get a free demo. And, while there’s no word yet on whether other regions will also get the demo, it’ll probably happen soon enough. You can check after the break for a trailer of the game.

    Will you fix the mistake?

    Speaking of eShop games, is it just me or is there Zombie Slayer Diox ads floating around the Internet?

  • Izetta

    I wish I would have got this demo before I brought this game. It is not like it’s bad but it is not my cup of tea if you know what I mean.

      Same here. The game is interesting but it’s bar is set high from the start with nearly no chance to work your way up to it. I just can’t manage to et further in the game, it’s that hard. Definitly aimed at hardcore platform/puzzle gamers.

    • Zed

      Totally agree. I’ve been sitting at level four ever since I got it, the day it released. Like japzone said, it’s not my cup of tea. Plus, with Pushmo out, whatever part of my that loves to puzzle is sated for quite some time to come.

    What about Revelations, Mario and Sonic, Nintendogs, Crush, and MGS 3D? Weren’t those all free demos?

      All of those demos listed are available in the US I think. IDK if there gonna be ever removed though.

      Those aren’t eshop games

    this is a joke, the games worth the purchase without a demo. Plus real people have already purchased it.

    • TheGZeus

      This post is just terribly, horribly stupid.
      “this is a joke” You’re complaining that something FREE exists?
      “Plus real people have already purchased it.” What does that even mean? If you haven’t purchased it, you’re not a real person? Are you saying that since real people have played it, you can just ask them if it’s worth it? Even then, wouldn’t you rather try it yourself?

      I have the full version of this game, but it’s pretty sweet that’s there a free demo for everyone else.

      Plus in these days; I probably wouldn’t purchase Pyramids, because of all the other 3D/60 fps/7.1 Surround Sound games currently available, and same goes for Mighty Switch Force as well as Pyramids.

      SHABLAGOO!

    • tob2007

      People already got Nintendogs, and they released a demo for that.

    This Looks better than Anubis II

    Hmm it seemed ok but like Izetta said, it wasnt that great.

    blah. the eshop video was good enough. just give us some new metroid or pikmin on the 3ds then im good. like thats ever going to happen.

    • http://nintendo3dsblog.com/photos-of-a-kid-icarus-uprising-float-in-japan Kaizar

      Pikman is only on Home Console Nintendo Systems.

      But 3D TVs cost $500 last year, and will be cheaper later this year and even cheaper next Year (just like HD TVs in this point of their life spam).

      And there’s sure to be a Pikman 4 for Wii U, when Nintendo sees enough people owning a 3D TV to make 3D First Party games, which will probably be this year or next year.

      But there will be Metroid for both 3DS & Wii U.

      P.S. 3D HD TVs will be really cheap in 2014 or 2015, maybe as low as $50 (at least on Black Friday).

      WE THE BEST! FOREVER!

      actually there was talk of pikmin coming to 3ds be patient k

    • http://hybrilynx.net/ Hybrilynx

      pikmin was perfect for the 3ds. ever since i saw the pikmin in 3d, i was like holy shhh. becuz pikmin is such a simple game, it probably is possible to have pikmin with the same graphics as the picture in the streetpass plaza. and that would have been the game.

      as far as 3d tvs goes, i didnt even buy a 3ds for the 3d. i dont know why anyone would.
