@rjejr You feel like an idiot when you learn something new? That's sad.

@Shiryu If they bring in characters from other franchises I want it to be Nintendo franchises. There is already a Sonic kart racing game.

To the people saying that making a Let's Play is hard work—having read all of the comments here so far I have seen nothing that convinces me of that. An hour or so editing a video after playing the game is not a signifigant amount of time. That is nothing compared to the amount of time it takes to create an original video from scratch let alone editing one.

@Jese_1 I'm looking forward to Yarn Yoshi.

There are actually many female character disguises in LEGO City Undercover.

These figures are actually compatible with other LEGO things. I'm not a fan of them, but at least their hair fits on regular minifigs.

@theblackdragon You make a good point that my claim can not be backed up at this point by solid evidence. By the same token however, neither can the opposing view which so many people claim is backed up by scientific evidence.
@k8sMum The whole "the founding fathers were deists" thing is a relatively new interpretation. There's the quote where they said they were "led by providence"--while these days providence means luck it used to mean God. One of the founding fathers said that the constitution was written for a religious people.

I also agree with and support pretty much everything @TrueWiiMaster has said.

@C7_ :"Two people who have nothing to do with you getting married by both of their legal consent under the laws in which we allow marriage does not ruin lives any more than normal marriage would."

That's not strictly true. Children are most happy and successful when they grow up in a family with two married parents, one male and one female.

@moroboshi The CPU may be slower but it is way more efficient which more than makes up for that.

As far as I'm aware we never got the full picture from the die shots. Wasn't there around 30% that no one could figure out what it was for?

@Midnight3DS That's kind of irrevelent considering that Sony isn't involved with this.

I think this bug/feature will be removed entirely. It would probably take more effort than it is worth to put in an adoption mechanic for children, because regardless of your views on the subject, it is not physically possible for a same sex couple to have biological children.

@bizcuthammer Summer doesn't end until September. I'm pretty sure more big retail games will be here by then.

@Schprocket "Just to add some perspective, nobody has problems using the WiiMote in Skyward Sword and yet you could far easier fashoin a realistic looking blade-controller for that (and similar) stabby-games. I'll bet you'll find stabbings are more prevalent in the world than gun-shot deaths."

I don't hear about many sword related deaths happening these days. If it was common I think people would have a problem with it.

@bahooney That wasn't theft and it isn't anybody's right to play a game.

@Zaphod_Beeblebrox It looks like a Minecraft clone.

Back on topic, I don't really want any more DSiware—my 1000 blocks available for those went fast. I wish we could just boot them from the SD card.

@Damo I personally like the Kickstarter coverage on this site. I haven't donated to any of the ones featured here yet, but even if I never do it is nice to hear about them.

And if you don't like it it really isn't that difficult to just scroll past the article and click on something else.

@Yellowgerbil The other problem with those ratings is that you have to play the game for at least an hour before you can rate it. So if someone dislikes a game so much that they couldn't bring themself to play that long they can't let others know. It's probably better to have this system then letting you rate something without even booting it up, but it still has problems.

@ErnisDy Well, there's Nintendo Land and EA Playground.

@andreoni79 In addition to what @FiveDigitLP said, we also get 160 coins for registering a Wii U or 3DS.

@evanescent_hero Actually, "the cake is a lie" is written on the wall in one of Ratman's dens in the first Portal game.

The Nyancat guy has a good case because the character is original. Keyboardcat, maybe. I think that the lawsuit rests on the use of Nyancat.

And something that nobody seems to be grasping is that a copyright comes into existence the moment the work in question is created. Registering a copyright makes it easier to defend, but you can still defend your copyright provided that you can prove that your work existed before it was used by someone else.
Trademarks on the other hand become invalid if it moves from being a Proper noun to just a noun in public use. For example, Kleenex, shopvac, and even dumpster all used to be registered trademarks. All of those names became are now used to refer to anything that is in that same roduct category. However, when someone refers to Nyancat they don't mean A Nyancat, they mean THE Nyancat. I'm not sure about Keyboardcat. It does seem though like that would be something you could trademark, but I'm not so sure about copyright unless it was that SPECIFIC picture/video. I'm also unsure of if Trademark comes comes into existence the moment something is made. I don't think it does.

@Whirlpool Pulse sensors aren't exactly a new technology—I doubt accuracy was an issue.

@Onett I don't think they have since then, but before that Capcom also made the Oracle games.

@19Robb92 Not true. There are lots of great iOS games.

@SirQuincealot Kickstarter project creators don't get any money at all until and if the project reaches its goal. They never saw any of that 50k.

What's Downtown Nekketsu Kōshinkyoku Sore Yuke Dai Undōkai?

And why doesn't Nintendo just put all of the games on the Wii VC on the Wii U right off the bat?

Wow, there's at least one vote for everything. That seems rare.

There is one thing my iPod has over my 3DS in the controls department: multitouch.

@HeatBombastic It's relatively not really that much money for a movie.

@Zodiak13 You know you don't have to buy your child any toy he/she desires, right?

I'd actually prefer to have Wii U thought of as a "kiddie" console than have morally bankrupt developers like Rockstar develop for it.

@Wilford111 Well, they granted a license to the developer, but that's about it.

@Intrepid Saying something will be available "shortly" isn't really assuming a date. It's a fairly relative term, and when people have already been waiting so long, sometime this year could be seen as "shortly."

I personally can't stand the Dinosaur Office shorts. The voices are so grating. BearShark is decent, but I can't imagine a good game coming out of it.

"New Legend of Zelda: A Link to the Future 3D"—I don't know, it's a little wordy. Especially when you add a "the" in there.

People have been begging for a new top-down Zelda game for years (as if somehow PH and ST weren't) and now people are saying they don't want to pay full price for a retail size game?

I would also like to note that the footage shown is from an in development game and is liable to change. It says so right in front of the downloadable trailer on the eShop.

@Sonicfan11589 That's a dangerous promise. Anyone who has followed the game Star Command at all will know what I mean.

I just wish he weren't animating in Flash.

@DarkCoolEdge They said they weren't bringing the last Guild 01 game over because it is too dependent on Japanese pop culture that wouldn't make any sense in the west.

When a trailer/commercial has a VoiceOver like that, odds are it's crap.

@Ren Of course on the Xbox you have to pay over $100 a year for Xbox Live Gold to use Netflix.

@Raycon I suppose so. It was really late when I posted my previous comment and miscalculated this year as being Megaman's 25th instead of last year.

@idork99 There's a lot of new stuff!

@DerpSandwich Didn't you read the other comments? It does cost the same at retail.

There are still about 7 1/2 months left of the 25th anniversary. At the very least Capcom is doing more for this franchise's 25th than Nintendo did for Metroid's.

@ULTRA-64 Video Games aren't Sony's only source of income. They also have a large line of televisions, publish music, they have a movie studio, etc. They have a lot to fall back on.

@ninja89 A possibility for that occurance is that investors were unimpressed by the PS4 and concluded that Nintendo was a better investment. I have no idea if it's true, but it's a possibility.

Investors seem to be, as a whole, a fickle bunch. For example, after Apple reported record sales for the iPhone 5 their share price dropped signifigantly because despite record profits, they did not sell as many iPhone 5s as analysts predicted.

@Henmii Yes I'm sure that Pixar's upcoming projects including "The Good Dinosaur," a movie that takes place on an Earth where dinosaurs never went extinct, "The Inside Out," a movie about what happens inside a young girl's brain, and The Untitled Pixar Movie about Dia De Los Muertos" will be completely uninnovative and derivative. /sarcasm

And Pixar isn't responsible for Planes.

@Tasuki No, they are not the same thing. One of the provisions in the Disney Pixar merger was that Pixar got to stay their own studio seperate from the rest of Disney. And John Lasseter is CCO of pretty much all of Disney, not just the animation divisions.

The portion of the Nintendo audience that is me doesn't play the kind of games they make.
