This is an absolutely FANTASTIC game. I would know, I own a SEGA Game Gear (yes, it works, believe you me!) and an original Cartridge of this game that's in excellent condition. Not that I like to brag... :B

No, but seriously, for those who haven't played this game before, BUY IT. You won't regret it. It's challenging, it looks & plays great, and most importantly, it's FUN.

@jon45030 There are no such thing as "HARDCORE GAMERS". That's just a stupud, irrelevant label that some idiot in the industry came up with to try to descrive a type of gamer that doesn't exist.

I'm not attacking you, mind you. I'm just sick of hearing all of this "hardcore gamer" garbage. You're either a gamer, or a casual gamer, or you're not one at all.

I've only played the 3DS Demo of Mutant Mudds, but the game looks and plays great ALREADY, and to have even further-improved visuals on the Wii U? I'd say that's freakin' great! I'd buy this for $9.99 without a doubt. But I don't own a Wii U.

So if it were to be released for the PlayStation 3, I'd be there in a jiffy. :B

Never in my life have I doubted Nintendo's ability to deliver. They've been a part of me my whoke life, and I'm pretty sure it'll always be that way.

DON'T UNDERESTIMATE NINTENDO!

I'm pretty sure I'll ALWAYS be a Pokémon an. I've been so since as far as I can remember.

My first game was Yellow, I think, and I played it on my Kiwi Game Boy Color. A relative of mine had Red & Blue, so I got to play 'em all.

The first Two Generations will always be my favorites, 'cause they're the ones I've played the most, especially as a kid. Lots of fond memories that reallu touch home.

I love Pokémon.

I haven't played this game on yeeaaaarrsss. Hopefully I'll find the GBA version in one of my swapmeet trips. I'd love to play this again.

@CaveDweller Sooner than later we'll see the Wii U prove all the doubters wrong.

No matter what you think of this guy for speaking his mind (jerk or not), he's shooing away potential customers and business partners for his company. Baaaaad business move sir, baaad. Hehehe. :B

@Rawk_Hawk It's, "I couldn't care less." You're welcome.

@gavn64 And that's all just a matter of opinion & on-screen character acting. Phil (Punk) doesn't think he's the best in actuality. I personally think he's great all-around, but I would give Bryan the edge when it comes to perfornance in the ring. I'm a huge fan of both though. :3

That said, I hope Wii U owners do get their WWE games. Even though most aren't fans.

SMAAAAART move, Nintendo. I look forward to this. If done right, it could spell success. :B

Stupid kid. Stupid cop. Stupid parents. Stupid argument. Sure, blame it on something that can't force you to pick up the blade and slash it on someone's throat.

I love reading most of the comments in the articles of this place! They're entertaining, and you people are awesome. I prefer buying big games at retail and downloading small eShop games. :3

By the way the review was going as I read it, I was thinking the game would recieve an 8. It sounds better than a 6 to me.

Well damn. If only I was a kid again. I'd be all over this. XD

I haven't noticed any improvements.

Don't worry, Europe! You'll get it before you know it!

It's too bad. With that team behind the game, I'm sure it wouldn't have disappointed.

No comment. Just kicking back and watchibg the fire burn and spread. :B

decisions to try to get what he wanted.

But R.O.B. seems to be saved, at least. I'd like to see a photo of when it's up for display.

Tsss, I'm jealous. I'd love to see that R.O.B. when I walked into a Best Buy store.

Wouldn't be surprised if the man/kid that started all of this got fired. Despite the fact that it seeims that the toy will be taken care of, he took through some unfavorable

Psh, bring on the specs talk. It's NEVER about the specs!

The PlayStation 4 will have all the power in the world an so will the next Xbox, but power has never been an equalizer in the gaming industry. We saw this with the Game Boy, which overcame the Game Gear & Atari Lynx. We saw this with the Wii, which outsold the 360 & PS3. We saw this with the DS, which sold more than twice as much as the PSP did, and we're seeing it RIGHT NOW with how the 3DS is selling better than iHop pancakes when the Vita is struggling to get a foothold.

Bring the talk of the power. 'Cause in the end, it doesn't matter to those who game.

Here's to hoping the title doesn't dissapoint. Sounds like Renegade Kid really put some effort behind the game. Good to hear.

So many complaints from so many picky people. :B

I got Kid Icarus! Downloading as I type this. I never got to play the original as a toddler (back when I had an NES) so it'll be great to be able to play it on the 3DS. And if Mutant Mudds teaches anything, it's that sprites look AWESOME with the 3D Effect! :B

What I got to play of Luigi's Mansion years ago I can't say entertained me.

However, for all.of those that are excited about Dark Moon, it doesn't sound like you'll be dissapointed! Hope the game is as enjoyable for you guys as it sounds to be.

Glad to see I'm not the only person who thought of "Doom"! Hahaha! This made me smile.

The swinging is awesome and so are the acrobatic maneuvers, but that's about it. This looks like any generic Spider-Man game before it.

Which blows donkey balls. He's one of my favorite heroes and he gets such poopy games.

That's awesome! Hope he's interviewed again sometime. (Even if chances are... well, extremely slim.)

I'd be happy with having other voice actors be interviewed too. :B

This guy is awesome! Wish I had that kind of creativity.

(Continued)
The Wii only sold more BECAUSE of the marketing to families & kids? Doesn't matter, it did better than the competition.

THE VITA was supposed to kick the 3DS to the curb according to the haters, and what happened? The complete opposite!

Nintendo's not going anywhere. The people who want them to don't knlw the reality of things.

2013 Will be a positive year for Nintendo and all of it's consoles, especially the 3DS.

I don't care how long or how many people say Nintendo will drop out of business, because they won't. It's what they are, and what they came from, and they would NOT go down without a fight.

The Wii is for kids? Wrong. It outsold the 360 & PS3.

The Wii only sold mkre because

*3DS. I'd buy it with no hesitation, and I'm thinking it'd probably turn out better than the mobile counterparts. :B

I have the PC version, but I think it would be AWESOME to have Wii U & 3DS versions of Minecraft!

I don't own a Wii U, but I do own a 3DA.

I was thinking the exact same thing that many people here in the Comments have thought so far. I don't think that Nintendo would only use this technology to make figurine-dependent games. I mean, really? IT'S NINTENDO! Nintendo, the company that's always looking for new ideas and trying to be unique.

Why can't you trust them to do something that's yet to be seen (or to be seen in a major scale) when they've got this technology in their hands? I'd say people should have more trust in them.

I know I would. (I don't own a Wii U.)

I've never played any of the four games in the series. If I saw this in a store, or at the local swapmeet, I'd consider it buying it, just to see if the series is something I'd become a fan of.

I can only imagine Minecraft on the Wii U. It'd be amazing!

Something else that people don't think much about is Minecraft, but on the 3DS! I'm pretty sure it'd work on the 3DS like a charm. So I say that if it eventually IS ported to the Wii U, that it should be ported to the 3DS as well.

Imagine, with the GamePad, you could have a map, and the items menu, all on that screen. The 3DS could do the same thing, but on it's bottom screen, and on both consoles you could select your items with the stylus.

Since playing it here on my PC, I've honestly thought that Minecraft would be a WONDER of a game on any of Nintendo's consoles. Even including the Wii.

Hoping it eventually does happen! :B

WHY? WHY THE SHOVELWARE?

We don't need this kind of garbage! Not when we've got a fresh new start in the Wii U!

There's people worried about the 3DS version being horrible and all that, but then I think that it's Nintendo developing as series they've always been in charge of and have made SURE that they're good game-wise...

To that, I'd say people should stop worrying. All three of the first games have been awesome. You'd think people wouldn't have so much distrust for Nintendo.

I just HOPE that, with 2K reportedly taking the WWE license and all that crap, that the WWE games have some big changes made to them with them in charge. It'd be nice to see someone that's NOT THQ try their hand at WWE's wrestling games.

However, despite the fact that THQ rings that bell of nostalgia, I can't say I'm sad to see it go. It actually makes me happy in some way. I wasn't fully satisfied with them as a company for a while.

Good riddance.

Wow... they're all fantastic! Words probably can't describe how awesome those cosplays look! And I don't even like cosplays all that much!

HAHA, YEEEAAAAH! Go Nintendo! :B

I wouldn't have bought it without reading the review. Not a big fan of pet sims. Especially not crappy ones like this.

I had never heard of the first game, or this one, until now. Certainly looks promising!

I have Reel Fishing: The Great Outdoors on the PSP. The onlu fishing game I've ever bought and one that's taught me not to buy any more.

I'd definitely skip this one.

I want both versions at launch!

If any console could do it, it's the Nintendo DS.

So happy for it! Even if the PlayStation 2 was my main console for many years.

Crash Bandicoot.

It makes me sad, looking back at the great games of the past that I spent so many countless hours playing as a toddler and a young boy.

Crash 1-3, Team Racing, Crash Bash on the PlayStation. (Still have Bash; the only one to survive. Still works.)

And then The Wrath of Cortex & Nitro Kart on the PS2.

Makes me sad looking back and wishing that some other development team took the reigns and brought the series back again to it's former glory.

I don't mean to get all nostalgic, or to look at things through rose-tinted glasses, but this is a series I truly do miss. I saw Mind Over Mutants when it was released, and I didn't like it at all.

Wish someone brought the Bandicoot name back.

I'm just blown away that the Wii and DS lines are still selling by the hundreds of thousands, even during the holiday seasons! And people say that these consoles are dead! Haha!

I'm sure the Wii U will sell a lot better a year from now. More games, and nothing more, will make the system sell well.

And the 3DS... Pokémon. X & Y. That is all that is needed. THEY'LL BE FLYIN' OFF SHELVES!
