Honestly i hope the wii u doesnt sell too well and more third parties abandon ship. I love when Nintendo takes the reigs entirely and fills those genres that other parties left behind. The gamecube had my second favorite software lineup, next to dreamcast, because nintendo was super experimental and delivered on the goods. If the wii u fails to sell another single console it wont be the end of nintendo so it wouldn't matter anyway.

Perhaps the planet itself will spin? Also could gravity mechanic be in the sonic lost world level as well? There was something to the stage that they said theyd reveal at a later date?

Ive never encountered a shiny and ive played every gen with a combined 1000+ hours of playtime. I hav a masterball in X that I will save till the faithful encounter.

I so want a fire grass pokemon. Gourgeist was a missed opp. But a fire water will suffice.

One of my fav pinball titles. I never cared for the zens series. But id rather hav this on 3ds.

Im sort of hoping for an hd zelda game that resembles the original legend of zelda official art. Toon shaded and long orange haired green and brown wearing link!

Venusaur is a beast!

If every entry in mario or metroid or zelda was cookie cutter then id be screaming for new ip. However most games are fundamentally different in the way the player approaches the game so long live existing ip! I wished however they did a larger scale new ip. I liked dillon. Loved pushmo. Eh for sakurai. KI:U if youd count it was awesome. Never played harmoknights.

Also in amie if you pet arorus' ice patches your hand freezes.

Personally I enjoy the fact that as a gaymer there are little tidbits here and there that speak to my community. "I want to work for a handsome manager!" Sometimes its nice to be included.

i think the Zelda universe just needs to branch out. theres enough characters and interesting lore to support other genres. id like a sequel, at least in terms of gameplay, to adventure of link. or perhaps a turn based rpg. or a game starring and detailing ganondorfs upbringing in the gerudo desert and eventual corruption leading into OoT. Or even those DS tingle games. I thought this was going to be the case after crossbow training...

I wasnt pleased with legends delay. Multiplatform never bothered me but i already had my fall lineupp planned. Ubisofts lost sale went to capcom and their stelllar mh3u release. Maybe in january ill pick it up but if its cheaper secondhand ubisoft still wont technically get the sale. Its a shame because legends was the reason i day oned my wii u.

Gamebreaking bug reported with saving in lumiose city. Anyone heard? I downloaded and it didnt effect me on X.

I actually enjoy urban championship. Hav it as a 3d "classic"

@DiSTANToblivion hopefull they improve her standard attacks. Shes too weak.

Does this mean I can cut thrown pikmin in half?

I want the keychain pokemon as a keychain for my keys. Merchandise opportunity!

Its a nice gesture... but it wont convince me of purchasing any two tribes' titles in the future. I dont game on a pc. So their solution doesn't suit me at all and yes I only purchased the title for the level editor because I'm a sucker for games that allow you to create.

The only designs im not keen on are some of the evolutions introduced in gen IV for tangela. Nobopass and lickylicky being my least favorite. And luvdisc.

the small pool of new pokemon shouldn't be a surprise as when the game was announced GF mentioned they were only expecting to produce 50 new pokemon this generation... has the short term memory of the internet taken effect? also, with over 650, I won't spoil the final count, pokemon running around... the series is not lacking in diversity.

@CanisWolfred i dont use the forums here. Im referring to google yahoo search. If this is your first time exploring the internet then the lesson learned is stay out of forums the week leading up to a games release

To be fair you had to specifically look for the leaks to find them. If the game was spoiled for you then you shouldnt have been searching for the leaks. I spoiled the game for myself and im excited. Cannot wait..

The original mario os a must play. The first level is brilliant in how it teaches the player the ropes of what to expect without the literal tutorial everyone depends on now.

@rjejr same here. Really wanted the level editor. Was surprised when i purchased it that it wasnt included. Definately won't day one two tribes anymore unless what they promised and advertised makes it in.

The legend of zelda series hasnt made ganondorf out to be evil for the sake of evil. What little backstory we have of him paints a tragic figure. I do see the parallel between the real world struggles of middle eastern and western ideology but i find it to be more enlightening then offensive. As far as sexism goes they clearly overlooked the plethora of strong female characters represented in the game. And the arguement of animal abuse is laughable as the animals in the series DO have a symbiotic relationship with mankind. I don't remember any slaughterhouses in the series.

@Superconsole do HMs make a return and if so in what capacity?

are HMs back? and if so in what capacity? nothing is more annoying then having a super bad donkey pokemon only to have to find a PC to switch out with something that can cut a small twig blocking your path... or limiting your moveset to allow your flying pokemon the ability to fly.

Sonic looks like he has a giant moob on his chest. ol i was hoping for a classic sonic interpretation but this is good news! Altho smasg is centered around the games id love too see team rockets jesse and james alongside pokemon trainer to showcase nintendos reach outside games. And give us a pokemon villain.

They reveal fighters on the 12th of every month. Toom link was revealed with the release of wwhd in japan. So we'll be getting another in two weeks

@Austroid Maybe they are hokding back on a reveal for a virtual console release if fzero gx? Id wait for that. Itll be epic. ^_^

@Austroid toon links reveal was to coincide with wwhd's release. Given there was rampant speculation he wouldnt be in it other then a cameo on a 3ds stage. Falcon is to original of a smasher to not be in. Zelda too.

Yes toon link! I for one enjoyed the noncellshaded toon link design in brawl and am glad they kept it for smash wiiu3ds

Peach giving a wedgie! Shes jealous of trainer's regimine...

I dont cate if they make a sequel to the game. Just make a sequel to the soundtrack! Tho a game would rock too!

@ferthepoet preach!

@FishieFish id definately get it for gimmicky make it rain and no im not being sarcastic!

No. Its not a game for me. I just never got intp sandbox titles. I passed on Lego City as well. However I am a huge fan of the original top down 2dthe affair. But that was mostly so I could run pedestrians over. And hey fox news, never onc did doing so cause me to do so in real life.

Definately picking this up even tho i still own original tho i will point out that again AB trio had no mention of price tho the games were released only a short time ago for far cheaper then the wii u retail disc but here we have price mentioned, i live in us so 49.99, so we arent going for standards in reviews?

@DestinyMan they hinted at the titles having seperate releases with the 3ds giving them trouble with certain characters like ice climbers. I doubt they hold back the wii u version which desperately needs this title.

I thought they literally ripped the models of stages from the games they originate in. As in skyloft being the very model used in skyward sword. In brawl several of the trophies are from the actual games they appear in. Also peach is shocked in that last pic because of a curious placement of luigi's hand which the camera rightfully cuts off just enough to allude to what is going on. Mario must be pretty angry somewhere.

@Shadowkiller97 much better as a three dimensional design but i need bulbasaur.... arg!

@Archgamer some of us aren't into competitive battling its like adopting a dog. some turn out brilliant and others... not so much. but once we choose them we stick by them regardless of their stats and abilities. I love grass types even though they have the most weaknesses. And I always get a Jigglypuff on my team even though she's not the greatest battler by far simply because I have a soft spot for the singing puff ball.

@Peach64 i dont think price should change a review but i believe consistency is important. Cut the rope was marginally marked up but price was pointed out in the review. AB trio has a huge mark up but price was never mentioned. Consistency is all Im asking.

I think standards are in order. i'll point to the recent angry birds wii u review where price wasn't considered. typically, price shouldn't determine fun factor, but prior mobile to console releases did receive negative feedback due to increase in price, granted most are a more shallow experience than AB, related to the transition to console/handheld porting. now the review didn't bother me, AB just isn't something I care for, but at 10x the cost of the mobile versions might have been something to call out. Seeing as an eshop release would have remedied the pricepoint. But I don't review games, I just play them... so what do I know?

I was hoping for grass dark for chespin line with an emphasis on the hood his starter wears much like scraggy in terms of deaign but o well. Ive never been a fire fan but fenns evo looks cool with the detatched tail. I really like mewtwoY but i need a xerneas. Funny how varied everyone's opinions can be. Also trex looks awesome, the poodle pokemon i thought was an absol preve...

@Romeo they could just release mewtwoniteX or mewtwoniteY as a timed event down the road. And you were never able to catch em all using 1 version of a generation.

@YT-SutibunDatsW definately going with bulbasaur...

@DrKarl lol the controls were fine. I mostly use the gamepad seeing as its wii pointer and not the better wiimotion plus thats used for the other set up. I would have liked a little more customization with controls but they get the job done. There was just something about bathing enemies with pikmin using march that felt better for me then charge but i take bigger issue with the returning day cycle. Maybe we will get to fight for our lives at night if pikmin 4the ever comes about.

Alao i downloaded this so you can add 1 to that total

@arrowM i think he was referring to the march ability where you could send pikmin out via the cstick on the gc controller which wouldnt make him an idiot but someone like myself who enjoyed the older controlschemes mechanics.

The controls were fine for me but i felt the returning time constraint, while more generous then the first, puts a severe damper on exploration. Yes utilizing the various captains aids in what you can accomplish in a "day" but i would have loved to explore at my own pace and experiment with everything.
