The Etrian Odyssey 4 demo is out on the European eShop; it's limited to 3 starts (wtf?), limits the maximum level of your characters to 10, and has a few other things that are inaccessible. And I hear the savegame you create in the demo can be imported into the retail game?

That said, I won't be going back to the System Menu unless absolutely necessary, and am looking forward to August 30th very much

I checked the other demos I have (EU 3DS):

Theatrhythm Final Fantasy: 30 starts
Pokemon Mystery Dungeon - Infinity something something: 10 starts
Dead or Alive Dimensions: 30 starts
The Denpa Men: 30 starts
Rhythm Thief: 20 starts
Fire Emblem Awakening: 10 starts
Sonic All-Stars Racing Transformed: 15 starts
HarmoKnight: 10 starts
Project X Zone (both demos): 30 starts
Etrian Odyssey 4: 3 starts

...or that's what it looks like, as I've used up some allowed starts already.

I really don't get why something like EO4 - an RPG, with comparatively a lot of content in the demo, which even allows you to save your game - gets so few uses, while something like Project X Zone, where the demos allow you to play a single mission each without much else to do, gets thirty uses.

I've played each PXZ demo once, decided the game's pretty cool and that I want it someday down the line, and that's it - no need to play each mission countless times over.

Quick edit: Reached the end of the EO4 demo; when reaching the stairs down to B2F of the Lush Woodlands, I was told the demo is over, but that I'm free to keep exploring even though the story beyond this point isn't included in the demo, and was warped back to town.
