These remind me of the dark days of the 3DS, when every gaming related site was basically asserting the system was dead. Anyone with even a single neuron that fired knew otherwise....

I don't think 3DS will have much of a problem with garnering 3rd party support, even a bit after its designated lifespan. Think about the DS, GBA, GBC, etc. before it, they all garnered pretty awesome 3rd party support. While yes, people mostly remember 3rd party games from the systems that precede the 3DS, there is still the fact that all of them are Nintendo Handhelds. After the GB proved that it was a serious contender for people's time, and that it could provide short, toy like experiences , Nintendo pretty much had the market in the palm of their hands (no pun intended) this has lured developers onto their devices. This is important to keep in mind because to this day, Nintendo have proven time and again that while it leads the way with it's systems, third party support is hardly lacking on their handhelds (think about games like TWEWY on DS, one of the more recent games that is a big one from 3rd parties I can think of).
While yes, Nintendo are ultimately the leaders, it is hard to truly assert that they are the only force behind the success of their platforms in general. Give 3DS some time, and there will be SERIOUS 3rd party offerings on the system.

I can't wait to play this game!

I just hope we get the Last Story, I will be participating because I plan on legally purchasing the game. I seriously doubt requesting something I want to BUY could be considered me being a spoiled brat.

ZOMG I can't wait for this game!

Lock and Chase...ah the memories of playing that on my older bro's GB...

Good for Europe
Hopefully NoA can follow suit.

Europeans, please buy this game!

This really can't be justified....

I'm sold on Wii U now...

HD remasters seems like a likely scenario. The sad thing is I will probably shell out for whatever remasters they do in fact come up with (especially if they are in collections, not unlike PS3 has).

um...this may sound like a strange question....Has anyone been able to do the post play surveys for the ambassador games yet?

ok....I guess it makes sense considering Link doesn't actually kill Ganondorf in OoT, they just seal him off. Meh, sounds cool, but one has to wonder if before Skyward Sword something else occurred that dealt with Link and whoever the foe may be. Considering some of the creatures on the "ground" know what humans are whilst others seemed to be puzzled by their existence seems to imply there was interaction between the groups before the events outlined in Skyward Sword. One could posit that these events are what lead to the split between the two worlds and created what was known as Skyloft in the game (SS). Surely there has to be some reason to tell this tale

So Link kills Ganondorf and this leads to Majora's Mask and TP then ultimately Four Swords adventures (that makes sense)...but Spirit Tracks is ultimately the result of....what? lol Is it Link going back in time before beating Ganondorf in OoT? Or is that what leads to Adventure of Link?

This game is awesome!!!!!!!!!!

Can't wait for the optimized on 3DS version of Zelda and the other ambassador games...

I'm not that excited about Wii U...but I wasn't that excited about DS and look how that turned out for everyone. Maybe everyone should check out any console I'm not excited for lol...

Nintendo did an awesome job of proving why it CAN provide some of the best customer service and products in the best way. While many posit that free NEW games could have been given in the place of at least the ambassador games, with the line up we ended up receiving, it seems like only haters would make such a ridiculous assertion. One has to realize that most companies wouldn't provide customers with those products if they weren't at least showing them some form of gratitude for their years of continued support. Of course, most cynics won't be convinced but there could be those that are willing to look at things from various perspectives that at least see the weight to the opines of fans....regardless, I personally am pretty impressed with what Nintendo have provided me.

The Resolution takes some getting used to (if you aren't viewing it in the native rez, if you do, the screen is kinda small) I hope they release these games to the public so that way I can get the hopefully better versions with more features....plus if they go public more people can play them.

Damn you Wayforward!

Congrats Aussies...this is the one time you guys get something before people from other regions. I hope you love your games lol.

I hope Nintendo sells these games to non ambassadors. I'll be sure to mention that in my post play surveys (of course I'm only one person, but maybe others will do so and request GBA games in general on the eShop, a lot of people would be willing to pay for them, I know I would).....

Awesome line up!

Yeah, this one's on my radar (seriously though, it is).

Would it be safe to assume it won't support the use of the circle pad pro?

Call me a fanboy, but honestly I'm okay with this if implemented properly in future iterations. Hopefully it won't get too stale though.

This game is awesome...

Oh this will be a naughty caprice!

Hopefully I'll get to play a good amount of those 3.5 mil online when I finally get MK7...

The fact that Nintendo are making HUGE strides toward rounding out their experiences with online and connectivity speaks volumes on the R&D and one hopes they can innovate the structure like they've done with other avenues (controls, specifically) in gaming. I can't wait to see what else they'll bring to the table.

Club Nintendo is still down for me....idk about anyone else.

I'm at around 700 coins...sweet!

Pushmo is friggin brilliant. Seriously, download it if you can!

Pushmo needs to get released in the US now!!!!!

Cool...hopefully the system will see more 3rd party support like it's predecessor. I'm not saying support is weak now, but it could use more.

I find it strange how the reviews seem to vary wildly. Some publications LOVE this game, others seem to almost hate it or find it mundane....I may fall into the former as I love the traditional Kirby games and haven't played one (a traditional Kirby game with what is now considered his trademark, the copy ability) in a while...I'll buy it as soon as I can.

It looks nice...but I've played this one and the deluge of games coming out this season makes me wary, I'll pick it up when it becomes cheaper. It's a great game but Mario (Kart, as well) and Zelda will be taking up a lot of my time.

I had Glover on N64 and loved it...I wish they would release the sequel lol.

DUUUUUDE! I can't wait for this game to be released.

They should make their games cheaper and allow developers to price content how they want to...the average consumer perceives value based on what competition is offering (and in many cases rightfully so). PS2 games on PSN are $10 US....

The conduit was good, but the thing is it's because developers are lazy (or we could look at the Metroid Prime Trilogy as a point of reference, those are great games).

I would love to play Skyrim on Wii U. I'm not buying Arkham City on 360 or PS3 because it will be released for the next Gen Nintendo console...

I realize my comment may sound slightly illogical (and it is) but I already own a 3DS (although until I see the redesign I guess my comment is pointless )

Damn, this one looks nice; if they release the redesign in white on US shores...I'm definitely picking it up.

I'm buying this....I've been waiting for this since I bought my 3DS.

Eh, regardless of what reviewer from Nintendo Life gave it a 6/10 I enjoy the game. The 3D is good and unobtrusive, while the mechanics are rock solid.

I think it's interesting they've got someone like Robin Williams (along with his daughter) as their spokespersons for Zelda. Considering he has a good amount of fans, this could open up the audience for Zelda.

I wish I had rhythm, this game looks enjoyable and goofy.

Another awesome WayForward game? Sign me up!
