I have the means to play every Zelda they released so think it's about time I went back and played them all, I've not even played half of them and feel I've missed out.

I really can't believe how poor I was, real bad luck and ended up with just 132 points. I feel ashamed and I'm now going to hide in the corner.

I'm in. Let's race

Nintendo is doooomed !!!!!!

Sorry but someone had to say it

@ULTRA-64 Nothing illegal about eating mushrooms !?!?

I used to be a pirate for quite a wile when I was younger but now I don't beleve in waiting around downloading massive files, much easer to go buy the bluray or game for the sake of a few quid. Makes me laugh as I still know people that will buy knock off games or movies for a fiver a pop yet the real thing is only a couple of quid more. If they want to cut piracy treat it like shoplifting, if your caught downloading/stealing no matter how petty you get arrested and cautioned, get caught again then get charged and go to court and risk going to jail. The crimes are the same at the end of the day.

Edit to add: they should also treat people who buy pirated media the same as people who handle stolen good as again it's the same crime

As others have said this is just a step away from what we want, this is why if there's an eShop game I can also get of PSN il go for the latter, not only wis their the chance it comes with cross play but I also feel like my purchase is more secure should anything happen to my console.

A discount would be nice but cross play would be more welcomed.

Tempted at the original Mario and Zelda games but not in a rush to buy them as I already have other ways of playing them

I too got the email this afternoon. I have no intrest in downloading this so here's the code for some one who does.

I've been putting of buying a tablet because of my gamepad, there's times when I'm watching tv ect il grab the gamepad to check the internet but it's no way a replacement for a 'real' tablet, it only does the basic things a tablet can do and if Nintendo promote it as something it's not then they will have more unhappy customers. Has whoever wrote this article ever used the gamepad? If they had they would realise this article is pointless

Looks like it might be time to grab Steamworld Dig, not that il get round to playing it yet as have a massive backlog

Only really interested in Another World, il wait for a review first then try decide what console to pick it up on. I'm only about 50 points off from my free £5 eShop credit as part of the premium promo so may put that towards it.

Looking good, plenty of stuff coming out that interest me for my Wii U, ok the 3DS maybe lacking slightly but that doesn't bother me as I have quite a large backlog of games to get through on it.

@eaglebob345 I think your missing the point about what I mean by superior, it's nothing to do with the amount of games it's what the console alone is offering, correct me if I'm wrong but I can't even play mp3s of a USB stick on my wii u let alone a movie. Now everybody shush!! I can't be bothered going round in circles anymore. I bought a wii u, then I bought a ps3 and realised the wii u was as bad as people had told me. Lesson learnt. End off

Like I've said before I only bought my wii u for the first party game and yes I haven't played all of them but it's nice to shake things up a bit. For an age I've been defending Nintendo and their games but after picking up a PS3 two weeks ago I'm finding it the far more superior console, this shouldn't be happening with consoles with a 6/7 year age gap.
Now I have to turn round to my mates and say that they was right from the start and Nintendo really are losing their 'game' so to speak.
(Please note I'm not saying Nintendo are doomed)

@Lopezdm how can you blame current wii u owners for not supporting the console because they don't pick up some games? They already showed the support when buying the console. What if after you getting your new PS4 games were coming out that was better on the 360

@Lopezdm yes I understand that about getting sales up, that's all good business at the end of the day but how can they expect people to buy the game when there's things missing, poor framerates or a lack of dlc? Does this mean I have to buy the poorer version of the game to guarantee more releases?
I'd be interested to know out of the people who own a Wii U an one of the other consoles what format they will be buying watchdogs on, it's looking like il be picking it up for my PS3 rather then my Wii U

@Lopezdm question is why should they buy them two games when their half arsed versions? I'm selling my copy of Arkham City before I even play it because I now have a ps3 and have read that that version is better then the one for Wii u

I really am starting to regret getting a Wii U now, ok the main reason I got it was for first party games but what am I to do in between releases? I should hav just got my PS3 and left the Wii U until it was in the bargen bin and I had plenty of software to pick up for it.

What is everyone's problem? If you don't like the game don't play it, if you don't agree with the mobile/smartphone game market and the casual gamers it has then move on and open your 3ds and carry on playing your games. Some people are treating it like a religion and will bash anyone that don't beleve the same as they do. If everyone liked the same things then we would live in a very stale world

Online play and ranking. Since the eshop isn't affected I'm not counting on them being related

Hope they pull out all the stops for the wii u, I'm really starting to think it was a poor decision to get one and think I'd have been better of picking up a ps3. I doubt Nintendo gave any surprises though it feels like their losing their touch

And this is Nintendo news because ........??!?

I need to resist getting any of these. Really need to get this backlog gone

@Sean_Aaron I have no problems with YouTube and the wii u browser it plays in 720p without a glitch, it's so good infact that I packed my PC away and put it in the loft (I only used my PC for the net/tube anyways)

I'm comin up to the last 1/4 of Dream Team Bros. On my 3DS and on my Wii U I've just got to 100% the last 4 worlds on NSMBU. At times when I need a break il be dropping in some Cloudberry Kingdom and KI:Uprising.
Hopefully I will have things wraped up this weekend so I can start Wind Waker HD next week.

Screw 3rd party's, do people seriously buy Nintendo consoles to play anything other then Nintendo games, I know that's all I buy them for and if a good 3rd party game comes along it's a bonus.
If your that bothered about 3rd party games buy a 2nd console and follow the sheep

Awsome. Even more to add to my 3ds list, shame the wii u doesn't have as strong as a line up err lined up

I think theirs enough decent games on the wii u to warrant buying one, the only thing stopping me ATM is the massive backlog of games I have for my 3ds.
As much as the big n try to denigh it the name really hasn't done the console any favors, this was backed up by a convo I heard in Argos the other day where one lad was explaining to his mate that it's a wii u not a wii on the demo stand in the corner

This would have been handy for me if I hadn't discovered Homepass, I just run that 2/3 times a week now for a hour or so and it fills all my games up nicely. BTW any one running homepass and has animal crossing have you seen the quality of the houses coming out of Japan? Gobsmacking!

I finished Link Between Worlds the other day and I've been spending the weekend getting all the things I've missed before I start Hero Mode, in between that I'l be on Donkey Kong Country Returns 3D

I'm holding of till the sales next year to hopefully pick up the NSMBU bundle cheaper, after that il be getting my mitts on Super Mario 3D World and Wind Waker HD.

TBH I only buy Nintendo consoles to play Nintendo games and the few decent 3rd party games, If (and thats a BIG If) someone like EA/Rockstar ect do release a game that interest me and I cant play it on a Nintendo console (GTA V) I just pick it up for my 2nd hand cheap hardly used dust collecting Xbox 360

I cant wait to get my hands on a Wii U next year and play the gem, everything about it looks amazing and the reviews all back that up too.

I've had my eye on these on eBay for a wile now, hope they come to the Euro Stars Catalogue as i have a few stars to use up

@Moshugan

Tonight I am going to try and finish the last 4 chapters on Kid Icarus Upriseing and once I got that out the way I'm going to make a start on DK Country, gonna play the original mode as I've already played through the Wii version to the last level but never finished the game so I'm up for the challenge again. Inbetween DK sessions I'm going to pick up some of the harder Coin Rush DLC for New Super Mario Bros. 2 and also finish of the last of Sonic Generations.
Basicly I'm going to have my head buried in my 3DS all weekend, Damb you Nintendo and your amazing games consoles.

@TreonsRealm you have some valid point, I think I will pick up the 3ds one. It has alot more pros then cons

I'm unsure If I should get this for my 3ds or wait til I get a wii u, hmmmm tough choice

I have a wii and a 360, the 360 never gets used as I don't like alot I the games on it, my wii has a massive backlog of games I want to play through but spend most of my time on my 3ds. A wii u is on the cards for me and il prob pick one up a couple of months before the wave of big releases come so I can play through a few of the decent games that are available for it currently.

@CrabGats
Lol I just realised what I put. If the have download capability for the wii then they could just use the eshop and single uses. I'm going bed

For demos on the 3ds couldn't they use download play from a wii or wii u, I'm almost certan that it can be done that way and then nintendo could just make them available for 24/48 hours

I've just got to get all the gems and a couple of Boo's from the last mansion on LM2 and il be putting it away for a bit, I'll then be getting back into Kid Iccrus Uprising and hopefully getting that out the way by Tuesday morning.

Got the 4GB card that came with my XL, it's got a hand full of eShop games 3 Virtual console games. The only retail game I have is Mario Kart 7 and that's because it came with the 3DS, I am getting my free game of the European off too. I want a 32GB card but I don't really 'need' to upgrade.

I'm really on the fence about this Lego game for the 3ds. I'm gonna pick it up to use towards my free game since I really didn't like mh3 or fire embalm demos

I have like a quid something left on my eshop balance so il prop put the difference to it and pick up marvel pinball for me this week, I think I need to get it out my head that space harrier 3d isn't coming to uk shores

thats good enough for me il pick this up when i get some more funds

The 3DS is deffo getting up then in my books, so many games I've got that need playing and so many i want to buy and so many i have pre-ordered. its gonna be a lazy summer of completing the backlog for me this year
