Go WiiU! GO! GO! ^O^

Probably someone at Amazon heard "Earthbound coming to WiiU" and rushed to add it to their list without checking what it actually was ^_^;

Of course I would love to be wrong and discover that a limited edition collection is coming to Europe

11th June... 4PM.... Okay, got it loud and clear!!!
Really can't wait for it ^O^

My 3DS became my best trip partner also thanks to the backward compatibility and once I'll got the WiiU I won't have problem connecting all the consoles as it will take easily the place of my Wii ^_^

Sure, more games come out, less you use such function, but it is a never ending thrill to have a keep growing collection of games you can keep using on your most recent console instead than need a continue switch to old systems (which is really uncomfy with home consoles).

I really don't understand Microsoft... apart what I already said, backward compatibility is also a great way for catch the attention to new customers that never owe a 360 and therefore could consider its whole library as "launch titles", why missing such a strong point? Cause it's backward to have backwards compatibility? It doesn't make sense to me @.@;

This remind me a collection of fanmade pics I saw sometime ago...
Each Pokeball was actually a house, for example the Master Ball was a mansion-like thing (with also a huge tv screen of course!) while the classic pokeball was a poor house with little-no comforts XD

Damn, I forgot about this presentation >.>;

Gonna check it just for keep myself informed, but COD and ultra-detailed bruisings are not really my deal ^_^;

I personally downloaded this game with Nintendo offer, else I was planning to skip it, but glad to hear it's selling well; especially since, now that I'm playing it, I can see clearly that it deserve some success ^_^

It won't be a masterpiece as some recent 3DS releases, but it's still a fun and very enjoyable game

Edgeworth come back sounds great, the battles in court between him and Phoenix were "legendary" XD Ages I hope to see them face each other again, maybe dual destiny will fullfill my wish

Shantae for DsiWare is a great game and I'm a fan of WayForward, can't wait to play the first adventure of our beloved morphing genie

A shame however that they are keeping the release date secret T.T

Great review, really describe well the game and say literally everything while spoilering nothing (which is really really important with games like this!).

A shame this game is so short or a luck in my case, I'm not really good dealing with spooky settings and this game know how to keep you in tension, not sure if I would have got to the end if it was longer XD

What a good news!

October is a bit far for say anything sure, but no doubt this game is on my wish list for now

Bah... I don't see why the hype...
... it only look so amazing afterall!!! X3

This game is on my "Do all you can for buy it day-one" list for a bit now and trailers like this just makes me wish July could come faster

Sounds like a great chance for replay a classic. I even skipped the DS collection chance, so I would surely be super interested if this 3D version will arrive in Europe ^O^

I prefered when Mario and DK used to be rivals with Mario personally chasing DK, it quite worries me that we will never see that again now that the title is not even Mario VS DK, but and DK...

On the bright sight is amazing how toys can make even old rivals friends and this games surely looks interesting, might pick it up in future if I will want a nice looking challanging puzzle game.

Oh come on! I was so hyped to play it this weekend >.<

Oh well... at least it's just a week of delay, not like there aren't games out there to play in the meanwhile XP

That trailer looks interesting for say the least O.O

I really liked the graphics and the gameplay concepts, althought the battles seemed so chaotic... but this wouldn't the first game I see whose gameplay is much harder to watch than to play XD

Hope the kickstarter will reach the 3DS goal and to hear again about this game here ^_^

Guild 02 is getting here faster than I hoped O.O;
And with Bloody vampire, Minis and much more neverthless!

If you can judge a month from its begin than May is gonna be great ^O^

Seems really a Guild 03 collection by the titles O.O

Can't wait to hear more! Level-5 is really getting unstoppable ^O^
(And I join everyone else in be super curious about "Earth Devastating B-rank Girlfriend" XP )

I like how the word inconsistency keep been repetead in the article cause that's how censorship always seemed to work everywhere and in everymedia.
It's really really hard to understand censorship when for every case where it was used you can easily find a similar case where it wasn't applied @O@;

The gold pack really feel like a cheat, but it all depends by the player's style.
Personally I spent HOURS grinding and doing extra battles for the pure love of it (I played 60 hours so far and still didn't complete the main story XD) and by playing like me you end soon with all the weapons falling apart and a couple of characters you just don't want to grind after how long you trained the others >O>;

Thanks to the gold pack I was able to fix the few "matters" and keep enjoying the game with my ultra-slow style X3

The other packs are okays; the extra dialogues in the scramble pack are funny (even if it's a shame to know about all this censorship around...) and fight against the legends in the champion pack can only be cool!
Althought... seriously, aren't the "legendary" heroes' models terribly bad designed? It's just combinations of the same few models with different colors and a pic with a name guarantee you that it's "Marth" or "Roy", I was expecting some more care since we are talking of the legends @.@;
The only thing no doubtly good about the champion pack are the amazing retro music, I just love to fight with them ^O^

Anyway I personally found this extra contenets just "nice", all the main elements in the game are way way better, but I guess I can't complain, a "nice" extra is always better than "no" extra at all ^_^

This "extreme" quality care is what made me love Nintendo in the first place, so glad they are keeping true to their philosophy even in such hard times!
And if waiting means we gonna have gems for WiiU as great as Luigi Mansion 2 and Fire Emblem Awakening are for the 3DS... then waiting never been so sweet ^O^

The trailers look very interesting, but for the whole time I was watching it I couldn't avoid to think this game would fit so well on the 3DS eshop more than the WiiU one >.>;

Nothing against short games as long as they are fun and feels great to play from start to end ^o^
Then again there is "short" and "too short"... for example Sonic Generation for 3DS is very fun, but last barely 2 hours, not even the time for get into it that it's already over @.@;

How to say... no matter short or long, but I want to actually realize I played the game while I see the credits rolls ^_^;

Well... not sure what to say about the scripts, mine are in italian and I found all the lines great till now, the translators really did a good job here ^O^

Not sure if I'm seeing the "original japanese characters", but whatever I'm reading it's great and raise a lot how fun the game is, so I can't complain ^_^

EDIT: I take all back, just checked the event myself and even the "great italian translation" sound dumb >.>;
Or they tried their best for cover a forced censorship or in Japan touching someone's hairs must be very very bad... I mean... a kid asking that lose all her innocence, really?!?! @o@;
I really hope is some sort of misunderstanding between different cultures, else it would be very ironic that they messed up a dialogue of a map based exactly on that, DIALOGUES! DX

This trailer do its job perfectly...
I was already interested, but now I want this game more than ever!!! @O@

Sounded strange that after Ocarina 3D we heard nothing about a Zelda for the 3DS and, my my, this just prove that with Nintendo even silence is really a good sign XD

For a moment the article's title scared me XD

E3 conference of Nintendo and Nintendo's directs, I always awaited them with the same excitement, so they are the same for me and I fully trust Nintendo decision ^O^

I just really really hope they will show a lot during the E3 time, no matter where. It doesn't sound like a good move to leave all the spotlights to Microsoft and Sony.

Can't wait for those directs, hope they will be manies and full of surprises ^_^

The news of a new news about Okami coming is already a great news itself ^O^

Can't wait to try the PKMN Mystery dungeon demo!
That game was out of my radar, but the new NOE promotion changed all ^O^

Okay, I swear I won't complain anymore about the weak star catalogue, these promotions are so amazing!

Thank you Nintendo of Europe ^O^

Great to know the game is going well!

I just can't stop to play it and glad to hear people are not letting this gem pass by unnoticed ^O^

All agree about the permadeath keeping players away, it did that to me for years honestly ^_^;

But not long ago I found Radiant Dawn for Wii and tried it for see if Awakening could be a game for me.
RD is such an hard game that my experience in TRPG was useless even in normal mode XD but once I accepted to learn slow in easy mode I loved it ^O^

Even the permadeath I realized how important they are! The battlefield is really dangerous and you are forced to ponder each move so carefully @.@; RD would be a completly different game without them!

So I will surely play awakening in classic mode with a normal difficulty, for me it's the perfect setting for have fun and be challanged without having a MAX level of frustration coming ^_^

Maybe I will also make in parallel a casual mode game just for be able to play more carefree when I want some easy-going game on the train and such, but my main game will be classic all the way

Bought my copy today at gamestop and got also the great artbook ^O^

Can't wait to start it, but I'm already playing other games right now... Oh well, meanwhile I have my copy ready and I doubt it will be left sealed for long XP

This was a great news indeed ^O^

Really hope they weren't kidding about them being avaiable "soon"!!!
Very very interested in Starship and Friday

Oh gosh, Nintendo is really serius about this being Luigi's year XD

I guess they are making up for having left the poor green plumber in Mario's shadow for too too long, but.. gosh... how much bad are they feeling about it? O.O;

Anyway nice looking 3DS XL and love how Nintendo took itself so so seriously over even the silliest intentions ^O^

@Five-seveN The Pikachu XL got in Europe even before US actually ^^

@Nintendojuenger Never liked that comment, I wasn't able to express my full opinion over this game for keep the post short. >.>;
Plus, now the review is out, it's very well detailed and I fully agree with it, so no point at all to keep around my comment that was only stealing all that space here for nothing XD

Played this game for few days and I can only fully agree with every single point of this review.

Still despite the game's lacks I keep find myself playing this game when I have some minutes to waste... How to say...a shame the game is just a shadow of what it could have been, but since it's playable some people could appreaciate it... few people... okay, maybe only me ^o^;

Nice news!

I got interested in the dsiware version since it kept pop up between the most sold games, but knowing it cost more than iOS and never get updated... it sounded a bad affair honestly ^_^;

But that's all in the past, when this new version will come out I will surely be very tempted to download it ^O^

Always great to hear that Nintendo is making its service better

Now however I will have to compile so many surveys...
I think I will claim my stars very very slowly @.@;

From the review it was clear the 6 was coming, it really sounded to fit the definition "a lazy sequel, it doesn't innovate but it doesn't really do anything wrong."

Personally anyway I didn't play much the first despite being a good game, so surely not interested in buy more of the same XD But I guess this will be an awesome game for those who just need more Dillon ^_^

I'm in as all the people who posted before me! ^O^

And if they will really bring it here in case there is enough interest... damn, never see so many "Please bring it here" comments in an article all at once XD What else you need Namco-Bandai?!?! >O<

5th July? Good good good, so many releases close to each other that I was exactly needing some time before the next buy! So much I have to play X3

Ack! Maybe 3 months won't even be enough @o@;

Really hope to hear about a limited edition for Europe too, chances are probably thin, but hoping cost nothing XP

@KnightRider666 Downloaded and already almost complete it, so I will be glad to share my impressions with everyone ^_^

I'm very sorry (or I guess very glad?) to say that I fully disagree with this review now that I played the game.
For be correct, many of the things the review said are true, but, with all the respect, really exaggerated.

The gameplay despite the apparent simplicity is really addictive and fun. Considering the game small size the variety of enemies is almost surprising and seeing the hero getting stronger and the witch’s magics more powerful gives a classic RPG thrills that help the overall experience.

I have to say that I absolutely disagree about the game feeling a chore and the witch system becoming useless in the latest stages.
It is true that the difficulty of the stages is… “unpredictable” for say it kindly. Easy stages and hard ones alternate with an unclear logic and grinding is necessary for going on; however the grinding the game ask is really minimum; the stages requires few tries for be beaten and keeping part of the gold and experience collected in the level even after a failure helps a lot in make all easier ^_^

In other words I personally always reached enough power for beat a stage before getting annoyed, quite the opposite the grinding was too fast for be able to lower the fun.

Regarding the witch I personally keep had to count on her magic till the end, having to take care of both her and the hero not only works, but is necessary for beat the stages. The only bad note I could say about the witch is that of her two spells only one really appear useful and able to allow some winning strategy.

Anyway I admit the game is undoubtly unpolished… apart the “unpredictable” difficulty mentioned before there are also other minor details that could annoy or frustrate the player.
A little example are the treasure chests. In normal games you are just happy to see them, but here… gosh… chests are more obstacles then prizes @o@ They can require many bumps for release their goodies and meanwhile they can act as walls, protecting enemies and blocking your path.

A bigger matter is the bouncing system, as said in the review too, when the hero bump against the enemy… well, here comes again an “unpredictable” aspect of the game, sometimes the bump is normal, sometimes the hero fly backward like hitting a spring and no logic appear to be behind it.

However the problems mentioned above are minor issues, the game is fully playable and perfect for little sessions of fun. It can also really drag you in as for example I played it till reaching the final stage when all I wanted was to just start to try it XD

And I would like also to add that getting to the end is super worthy, I won’t spoiler details, but the last stage (which is really giving me troubles @o@) is really the best one, challenging, interesting and makes even more worthy to face the whole adventure.

The only really turn down I can see is that the main story is really short, 4-5 hours are the time needed for complete it and, sure I said the game is fun, but it’s clear it will get repetitive soon with the extra modes, but considering the low price why refusing a sweet short experience? ^o^

I’m sorry for the very long comment, but I really feel this game here received a too harsh treatment >.<
I don’t say it’s a gem, but a 2… in my opinion this game could even deserve a 7 ^_^;

All my respect to Thomas and his review, I'm not posting this for the fun of disagree, just I'm seeing too many people ready to avoid this game only cause that "2" and I feel it's a real shame.
I doubt my comment will change much (and my bad english surely doesn't help >O>; ) but after the nice evening I had thanks to this game I owed to the witch and the hero a try ^^

[EDIT] Now that I see my comment posted...How much I wrote?!?! OoO Sorry everyone, hope I won't risk a ban cause of this XD;

Not sure... Really not sure... How to say... If they did this game surely they would have given a new image to the character O.O

But something is sure actually... Those trailers look awesomes!!!
For be only a "project in development" thing it looked amazing. I personally don't like FPS and still these videos catched my attention XD

On a side note, Megaman is having a really human-like anniversary.
As normal people by looking back he is not just seeing awesome things, but also mistakes and lost chances ^O^;;;

What a bad surprise... Thinking I bought today a e-shop card for download this O.O;

Still I think I will download it anyway, I really have a good feeling about this and last time I trusted more my feeling than a review I was right XP

No disrespect to the reviewer of course, it was surely a well written review and all the points were expressed clearly, but damn, sometimes I love to crush personally against walls for see if they are really that hard ^O^

Lots of people already said it, but I want to join!
Bring such idea in Europe Nintendo!!! >O<

It's not that huge deal, but it's a nice extra prize to choose ^O^
Sure, technically in Europe we have the cards with the points as prizes, too bad they are still the old ones working only for the DSi and Wii and the card of 1000 points (or 10 € if you prefer) cost 4000 stars which are around 800 coins at the change @O@;

Lovely how people around here asked "less Patcher" and you guys decided to even interview him XD

Anyway I can't avoid to disagree with almost everything he said >O>;
Then again he is the pro doing his job, I have no experience or knowledge for judge properly his opinion, but I can still do my job of fan and cheer for Nintendo to succed and prove everyone the NINTENDO POWER ^_^

Honestly I'm quite surprised that Disney let him go.
Not sure how things works, but couldn't they keep the guy and some of his co-workers after shutting down junction point?

Anyway I'm always glad when I hear about a big company working with talent and passion. Nowadays too many companies gives money such a priority that all the "heart" stuffs get completly ignored; I was afraid in the last years that Disney was slowly turning heartless too, but, luckily, it seems I was wrong... Ack! If it's someone who got fired saying so then it can only be true!

Nintendo always stated to be ready to help third parties and developpers making games.

Give a dev kit for free to a small developers with a great idea would just be a logical part of that offered "help".

Technically Nintendo even moved as publisher for some developers and in those case I doubt they had to pay the kit, right? XP
