I wasn't sold on Nintendoland after E3 but I must admit the Metroid themed game looks fun and uses the Gamepad the way I had always hoped!!

It'll be a good game for me to play with the younguns in the family, and it includes Balloon Fight, so I'm sold. I wanted the extra storage and download discount anyway. It could make for a good way to get people interested in franchises they haven't tried before.

I agree, the most recent event sold me on this game. It looks pretty fun.

I'm more hyped about the game than I was at E3. But have to admit certain decsions about the game has me less than excited about the game.

Are referring to the lack of online multiplayer?

Yep.

Other than that and lack of a starfox minigame I'm excited about the game.

There's still an F-Zero minigame, right? I didn't see it in that new trailer.

Starfox would've been cool(I reckon Retro studios are working on something big for starfox) but there is Zelda,Fzero,Metroid,Luigis Mansion, donkey Kong,Animal crossing and pikmin. phew

I thought Nintendo Land did have online multiplayer.

I've got to be honest, Nintendo Land is shaping up to be really good. My initial impression on it was that it wasn't all that great, but now that I've seen more, I'm pretty sure it will turn out pretty good.

some places are saying it does, while others are saying it doesn't.

THe game has a nintendo network componet so I would assume it has online play.

I can't wait to get this game. It actually looks good now.

It's probably just has something Miiverse-like. Like the random Miis popping up on the world map in the new Mario. Or something.

The translation specifically mentions "playing across the internet." That sounds like online play, but maybe the translator could clarify the context of that statement in the presentation since this hasn't been confirmed anywhere else to my knowledge. NSMBU has the network symbol, too, so the symbol alone might just mean MiiVerse.

Although it was kind of weak and forced at the E3 presentation, I think Nintendo Land is really shaping up to be something great. It looks like it will be a deeper experience than Wii Sports and with all the different attractions, I think it has some real potential.

+1

I think the Metroid Attraction has alot of depth. Makes me think alot of the games are gonna be like this. Cant wait to play NintendoLand.

I still think that Luigi Mansion mini game looks crap,a Star Fox mini game would've been better.

It's funny how this game is my most anticipated Wii U game. Never even thought of that when it was first shown in E3. I'm glad it's bundled with console.
DLC for this game would be awesome. They could make more minigames from other franchises like Kirby, Star Fox and Pokémon. I'd be really happy if they released Pokémon Snap kinda game as a DLC although full game with all Pokémon would be even better.

I find it quite amusing how much I'm looking forward to this game also. Will probably be blashemy to the so called "hardcore" crowd. But guess what? .... I don't care.
