Amazon have finally put up firm pre-orders following the Direct for both this and Wonderful 101, I'm all over it like butter on toast

Also Dynamite Dux Happy happy memories...

Before the SNES and Megadrive, I had an Amiga, and it was one of the best games machine I've ever had.

Yeah, it was missing Mario and Sonic, and loads of the greats have been listed above. Special shout out to @MadAussieBloke tho for Moonstone, THAT GAMES IS TEH RULEZ!!!

Does anyone remember Wizball though, developed by Ocean? I LOVED that game...

Earthbound is in my top five of all time. Three is good, but not as good as two. I think three instalments are just fine.

I told NL about this two days ago!

I work in Cardiff Wales, and I would have thought streetpass hits would have been really infrequent, but walking around the city still yields regular hits.

Mine is essential for MH now. Fighting with the camera underwater is just too cumbersome.

Can someone confirm what this will prob mean to us europeans? In a comparative sense if anything.

Played the megadrive game and also had the master system version. Loved this game, the music was awesome.

Mad for it.

Tour de France, IN REVERSE!

@jukilum I wholeheartedly agree. And considering it's not fundamentally broken, I feel they've obliged in providing a decent service. Just because something isn't exceptional doesn't mean it isn't decent.

@belmont seriously dude? How busy are you that you can't take a few moments to do this? Yeah, it could be more streamlined, but you know what? They didn't have to include it, and I for am grateful.

Jebus, anyone else remember this and Jeapordy coming out on the N64?

In response to articleitself though, and very much in Regular Show style... "OOOOOOOOOOOOHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!"

@korgoth I had similar issues, I kept firing at 11 o'clock, despite being certain I was aiming dead ahead! Bit of practice and I'm nailing it now.

The price will be massive. At the end of the day it all comes down to the games. I own a PS3 and a 360 with a 70,000 gamerscore thats been collecting dust for a year because I'm tired of the Killzones, CODs, Halo's and Gear of Wars, its just a formula that gets repeated endlessly with sequels that just keep getting bigger and bigger that do little to further the core gameplay; I can't help but feel that with spiraling production costs the whole thing is going to implode.

You could argue Nintendo have been doing their repetitive formula forever, but I personally find the simplicity of their products more appealing. The prospects of Nintendo's future Wii U releases, even the ones that haven't even been announced have me more excited than the stuff on show last night. Graphically they're admittedly gorgeous, but they just don't interest me in the slightest.

anyone else getting a jumpy feed?

It's not a deal breaker but it would have been nice. As a father of four you have no idea how much of a godsend off screen play is for me...

Its something, as far as I'm concerned the fact that they've actually listened and responded in a positive manner is great IMO. And it also sounds fairly substantial so it should keep us entertained for a while, and best of all... ITS FREE!

My old man picked up a clone called the Good Boy from some London expo a good 20+ years ago, came with one of those cartridges that had about 200 games on. I've always wondered what happened to that...

Mansion 2 all the way, I'm super excited for that game, I've finished the first one at least 15 times, huge fan.

CARDIFF REPRESENT! Big fan of your work Rhod, super excited for your further stuff!

Got mine on Saturday and its beautiful. And it also doubles as a lethal weapon that could honestly be used to beat someone to death with.

I had to send back my Wii twice, once for a failed HDD and the other for a cooked GPU. They were incredibly helpful and super quick at getting my beloved console back, thumbs up from me.

Ever since playing the iOS release of Another World I've been pining for this game; I've still got my SNES cart. This is great news for me, hopefully they won't fudge it up.

Yeah, sounds alright to me. Ive got all my games on wii u, so if I want to upgrade for 99p I can live with that.

I've been playing exclusively with guns pretty much the whole game of Tri, which I'm blazing through at the mo in prep for Ultimate. I'm on 5 star missions now having just killed my first Lagiacrus, but I feel I may be being a bit short sighted by not beefing up on melee weapons, is it possible to play the game relying entirely on the bowgun?? Thoughts and criticism are welcome!

I've always been a bowgun guy. All the colour of the rainbow, @JayCeja are switch axes actually worth investing time and materials in then?

When I read IGN's review I cancelled my pre-order.. then I thought screw them, I've been excited for the game for a long timr, I'll make up my own mind. And I'm glad I did. Out of Mario, Nintendo Land and ZombiU, I've easily played this the most, the atmosphere and sense of dread it creates is phenomenal. Yeah, its not perfect. Its got its bugs and not everyone will be a fan, but I bloody love it.

I was gutted when this was delayed, I 100%'d Origins, and I'm nearly as proud of that as I am of my kids.

Hah, just found mine and its got a photo of a drunken classmate who'd just finished vomiting on a school trip to France. Happy memories indeed.

I really don't understand the hate from people on this. At launch my 360 RROD on me after 3 weeks, and again at launch my PS3 took FOREVER to update because of constant PSN network problems, and YLOD on me after 18 months. Even my Wii needed repair after a year because the graphics chip got cooked, but you know what? I still enjoyed them and didn't bloody whine. Console launches in this day and age are monumentally MASSIVE events. There will be problems in the vast majority of situations, deal with it. I still played my WiiU on launch day, I just had to wait a couple hours more, is this really that bigger deal? Is it too much to ask people for a little perspective?

Amazon is still showing both SKU's as being in stock, that's where I got mine from.

I havent stopped playing mine since Friday. Hell, I'm writing this from the gamepad right now whilst taking a break from Mario U.
Miiverse really is amazing though, got tons of yeahs from my pictures and friended lots of good people from all over, its genuinely brilliant. And I've yet to meet a total ass on there, that in itself is a modern day miracle in my opinion.

I did initially cancel my preorder until I read Edge's review which got me interested again. This review has only further cemented my belief that I've made the right decision, roll on next Friday...

Jebus, you've got Caerphilly, an armpit of a town tucked away on the edge of the Welsh valley, or less than 10 miles away, Cardiff bloody city, the capital of Wales! Where is the sense in that I ask you?!
