"It would be easy to score IRONFALL Invasion much higher if we were just looking at it's pretty fun online arena based gameplay - however, it's let down greatly by a sloppy campaign, which is a real shame." - Nintendo Feed
"After being removed from the 3DS eShop by Nintendo back in August, the free-to-play game IronFall: Invasion is available to download once again. The game was originally removed due to an exploit known as IRONHAX, which could be used by downloading homebrew files from your computer to an SD card, then by selecting a specific safe file created in IronFall: Invasion, creating access to homebrew software and region-free capabilities on the 3DS."
IronFall Invasion has hit the 3DS finally, but has it been worth the wait? Shawn Long checks out the game in his full review.
There's a lot of obvious flaws with this game, but considering it was made by 3 ppl, I'm impressed.
Good and fair review, it seems it was looked at as a handheld game, and not as a console game like many other reviews tend to do with this game and many other handheld games. The Vita has suffered tremendously with reviews like that on it's games, and as a hardcore handheld gamer, it annoys me greatly.
Yea it was hard....Impossible to play Perfect Dark without the Memory Upgrade on the N64, but that didn't stop it from being a great experience.
* 90% of people buying this game will be people who have the CPP or a New 3DS.
That being said, it's a solid effort for a FPS game on 3DS and definitely impressive considering how few people worked on it.
NLife:
IRONFALL Invasion was a notable arrival in Europe on 13th February, heavily promoted as the eShop accompaniment for the region's #Nintendo3DSDay social media campaign. Though pitched as a game to show off the New Nintendo 3DS, it supports all versions of Nintendo's portable hardware and breaks the typical eShop template - there aren't many third-person shooters on the store.
Now that the European release has settled on the storefront and the game is gearing up for a North American arrival, we caught up with developer VD-Dev's co-founder Fernando Velez. To learn more about how it came to be, the reactions from players so far and how it felt to appear so prominently in the most recent Nintendo Direct broadcast.
If I get a new job within the next few months, I'll purchase this alongside my New3DS just to give it a shot.
It seems to be getting a lot of mixed reviews.
