I think at one point Professor Layton snaps and becomes the Riddler.

JUST BEAM IT DIRECTLY TO MY BRAIN!!!

Mario 64 was actually the last time Nintendo actually launched a console with Mario. Gamecube had Luigi's Mansion (doesn't count as a Mario game) and the Wii had Link as it's launch mascot.

I just had a thought:
Could we see Shulk as a Super Smash Bros character?

83 hours into Xenoblade. No end in sight. Loving every minute of it.

They should. That's something Sony would probably try to add to their PS Move.

We need Star Fox!
"Star Fox! Are you there?! Sony and Microsoft have declared war! They're releasing new consoles that block used games! Our army alone can't do the job. Hurry, Star Fox!"

Anyone else notice how often games are leaked by ratings boards?

AAAAAAAAAAWWWWWWWWWWWWWWEEEEEEEEEEESSSSSSSSSSSSOOOOOOOOOOOOMMMMMMMMMMMMMEEEEEEE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

So many games on the GameCube I spent sleepless nights playing:
Super Smash Bros Melee, Star Fox Adventures, Metroid Prime, Custom Robo, Wind Waker, Zelda Collector's Edition, Luigi's Mansion, etc.

I was dissapointed with MW3, but Treyarch's COD is head & shoulders above Infinity Ward's version. Zombie mode is insane!

9am! West side!

Hurry up and announce a price, Nintendo! And launch titles! And MORE ANNOUNCEMENTS!

Mother of God...connectivity between:
SSB (WiiU) & SSB (3DS)
Zelda HD & a future 3DS Zelda game (maybe even OoT 3D)
New Super Mario Bros. WiiU & New Super Mario Bros. 2 (3DS)
The possibilities are endless! DO IT NINTENDO! (I mean if that's OK...)

I hope there's more connectivity between the Wii U and the 3DS than there was between the Wii and DS (there was ONE game), hopefully more than Gamecube/GBA (of which there was plenty).

Looks like there's Anarchy In The UK.

I hope the rumor about Gamecube games being available for download is true

It's nice that they have both options instead of just one. But I agree with grumblebuzzz, it's not like Xenoblade Chronicles where the game will only be sold at an exclusive store, but at every major retailer. I really don't picture that big of a crowd that would want to download it.

Nintendo really should have different colored WiiU's at launch. Different colors gives buyers the notion that their unit is unique rather than just like everyone else's.

My scouter says Sony's next console will be OVER $9000! * breaks scouter *

EARTHBOUND! WE NEED EARTHBOUND!

They could sideline Mario for a while, maybe even Zelda, and work on resurrecting their other franchises; Star Fox, F-Zero, Custom Robo, Donkey Kong, even Metroid needs retribution after Other M. Then in a few years they could bring back Mario.

The game worked fine for me, the only problem I had was the Gust Bellows reticle kept getting out of sync with my remote, but a simple push of a button fixed it.

However, regarding all the people who complain the sword controls don't work, I KNOW they're swinging the remote like they're a freaking Jedi. The point of the game is PRECISION swings, not like this:

All Right...
America Rules...
Awesome Rabbits...
Augmented Reality...
Alien Rodents...
Assassin's Robe...

Honestly, I'd rather see A Link to the Past with Ocarina of Time gameplay/graphics.

@FyreeTSG I don't think Mario will go missing anytime soon.

Dang it, I'm American, so I guess I have to go all the way to the UK just to hear the wonderful news from Nintendo. Unfortunately, I don't speak any British.

Too bad there won't be a chapter on MEGA MAN LEGENDS 3, CAPCOM!!

@AceSpadeS I have that controller, those actually are turbo buttons. So there aren't L/R/Z buttons.

@thebluelight1 Super Mario Electric Boogaloo

@Angel792 PRODUCED by Nintendo.
Madworld-Sega, No More Heroes-Ubisoft, Resident Evil-Capcom, Conker Bad Fur Day-RARE.

Well, this is what always happens:
Nintendo announces a new Mario game, people say "Too much Mario!"
Nintendo doesn't announce a new Mario game, people say "Where's Mario!"
Nintendo will always make new Mario games. Deal with it.

$300 sounds perfect, considering the Wii sold quite well at $250. And the other consoles (X360/PS3) didn't start at $300 and they still sold. And some of you guys are willing to pay $400, that means you have and extra $100 for games, accessories, etc.

I'm sure Super Smash Bros. (Wii-U) will utilize the Wii-U's full power. Or a new Star Fox game to show just how powerful it can be.

SHHH... IT'S A SECRET TO EVERYBODY

Good luck beating Super Smash Bros Universe*, Ubisoft...

*SSBU is Reggie Fils-Aime's temporary name for the game.

Mobile games suck. Squirtle w/ Shades has spoken.

@Joshers744
Did NintendoLife just troll us?

"What Shall I Do?" I didn't know LeBron James was in this game.

@Blizzaga ALL THE COLORS IN ATOMIC!
Remember the DK64 Jungle Green N64?

Think about when they released the colored Game Boys (the Game Boy Pockets). That was actually intended to be a joke, but they were flying off the shelves. Multiple colors helps people think the console they're buying is more personal than those that are all the same color (like the Wii).

@Burning_Spear The store I work at sells blue, red, and black Wiis. It's a Kroger store, BTW.

It seems this time the white Pokemon is on the White cover and vice versa. Unlike B&W version 1, where Reshiram was in Pokemon Black and Zekrom in Pokemon White. What was up with that?

@Magic-Wind
Why not both?

PLEASE BE DONKEY KONG 64 3D!!!!

I would like to see a Super Metroid 3D remake.

I was hoping Punch-Out!! would be 3D...

A lawyer who fights trolls? Nintendo has the best laywer ever!
