This article now has me sold; I am getting LEGO City: Undercover as soon as I can!
I was in kindergarten or 1st grade when I got LEGO Island and boooyyyyy did I love that game!! I just wish I could go back and play it again. LEGOLand was another big one that I enjoyed as a kid, but it became too hard and I never beat it. I wish I could play that one again, too!!
It looks like my plan is to look into how I can play those two games while I get enough money for LC:U =P
I'm from Chicago but I'm at a physics conference in Baltimore. Initially, I thought the conference was going to be in Boston. Only once I had to buy my plane tickets did I realize it was in Baltimore hahah but now I SO wish it was in Boston. I definitely would have taken a day off from my science conference and gone on over to the video game conference lol
So this adapter is for Monster Hunter 3 G for the 3DS in Japan, which is a different game than Monster Hunter 3 Ultimate, which is coming stateside?
However, MH3U for the 3DS also doesn't have built in online multiplayer? And so there's no confirmation that MH3U will even use this technique at all, right? It may very well just have no online multiplayer whatsoever?
I've never played any of these games and my friends wants me to pick it up so we can play. He's getting both the Wii U and 3DS version, so would we be able to play together at all if I get the 3DS version? Another friend is considering the 3DS version. Could all three of us play coop together?
I go to school in Chicago and the local GameStop, Best Buy, and Target didn't have any copies. The next closest Target didn't have any, either. But one Target that is prettty far yet manageable had a few copies. I only had one class today and was off by 10am. I didn't get back to my dorm until 1:30pm, but the important part is that I had the game in hand =D it took them quite a while to actually find the game too hahah
For everyone who is suffering from the delay, try Target!!
I'd like to add that I would have just downloaded it to avoid this long adventure, but I plan on lending the game to my little sister once I've completed it, and I just can't do that with a downloaded version!
Disney isn't only for girls... Disney Pixar makes some of the best movies out there. I love all three Toy Stories, Monsters Inc, The Incredibles, Finding Nemo, and Up. Then there's Lilo and Stich and the Pirates movies. I also can't forget about Recess and Phil of the Future.
What takes the cake (when it comes to their tv shows)? Even Stevens =D
Back to the point, I'm not a girl for loving Disney lol they cater to a wide range of audiences.
Regarding this game, I'm kind of intrigued. I actually don't know anything about it, but based off of this article, I'm guessing you can buy the toys and then have them in the game. That'll provably be the reason why I most likely won't get this. That's just not for me.
On the PS3, content is locked to an account, but purchases are still available system-wide for any users to enjoy. It makes sense and I hope that Nintendo doesn't screw things up further by not including this feature if/when they update NNIDs.
Those numbers seem so surprising! It's not that they aren't warranted; you guys definitely deserve the high traffic and recognition! It's just that the site feels so welcoming and homely. I don't ever feel overwhelmed by the comments section or forums. I'll use IGN as an example. I never post there. Ever. And that's because I feel I won't even be heard. My voice just gets lost in all of the other mindless posts.
It's different here, though. For one, I'm typing a comment right now! I just feel much more comfortable here, even though this is a super busy site. It's awesome. We'll done NintendoLife!
Let me preface this question by stating that I'm not very good at economics. At all =P
So how does this hurt Nintendo? Don't they make all of their money by selling the system to retailers?
Ohhh, wait. I think I understand now. They were stolen on their way to the retailers, so Nintendo is now responsible for replacing those systems and getting them out to the retailers who bought them but didn't receive any.
@kyuubikid213 4.63 million units is such a precise prediction =P
And I seriously seriously doubt the Wii U will EVER drop to $150, Dauntless lol And if it ever does have a price cut, it will be so late in its life that there will certainly be more games than just Pikmin 3 for you to enjoy.
I just know that I'll definitely be one of those 5 million =D
Ahh the Internet... Where everyone argues their own opinions as if they were objective truths... I read about 50 comments before I just couldn't take it anymore =P With that being said, I personally enjoyed Nintendo's overall performance. I'm not looking for 5+ Wii U launch titles; at $65ish a piece, I'm only going to pick up one. Pikmin 3 looks great to me and I'm extremely excited to buy that alongside my Wii U!
Now nobody dare share an opinion that differs from mine!!!
We just want black because we're so used to Nintendo and white consoles. Just look at Sony. The Vita has only been available in black, and now that it's in white, everyone wants that one instead. But with that being said, I still want the black version =P
Let me preface this by stating that I don't know much about economics lol With that being said, I don't understand why video game companies are so exceptional. Selling used goods is common free market practice. Goods are produced. Goods are bought new. Some of these bought goods are sold. Some goods are bought used. It's present everywhere, for all goods. Cars and homes are sold used by the minute. Do the car manufacturers make money from the sold used car? No. Do the construction workers who built the home get money when the house is resold? No. So why are video game companies so exceptional? Why do they feel entitled to making money off of used sales, when nearly no one else in the market does?
@22 You can leave Spotpass on, in order to prevent MK7 Mii overload, turned off the option for joining by invitation (or something like that). That should fix it.
And I'll enjoy an e-reader app if it allows me to read my own .pdfs lol
Copenhagen interpreted everything wrong!! String Theory is proven correct!! hahah It appears that reality really does exists as a multiverse, with every single probability playing itself out in its own unique universe. It all makes sense. Nintendo is just utilizing the three major possibilities that resulted from Ocarina of Time, choosing one of those three universes to use as the setting for the games that chronologically follow. There must be a physicist or two working for Nintendo =P
Sounds neat! If Fire Emblem marks the start of the 3DS' DLC service here in the States, as well, it looks like it may be a while before we're able to purchase add-on content...
I can't waaaait to get this game! My sister has been the only one getting any use out of the Wii for a long while now. I'm excited to kick her off soon!
I remember that magnifying apparatus!! My older brother owned a gameboy and I occasionally played it. I was probably... around 5 years old, so I never really knew what the heck I was doing lol but I have a lot of fond memories trying to play Jurassic Park. I always used the magnifying device, too. Can you imagine if they made one of those for the 3DS? Hahahah
Woah, I wasn't the only one who played International Superstar Soccer 64?! I was with my mom at Hollywood Video (R.I.P) and we saw it used for like $3 so she got it for me. My cousin and I had soooo much fun playing it together. We would take breaks from our extensive elementary school schedules and have sleepovers every weekend to play it together lol I'm only a senior in high school now, but boy, this reminiscing sure makes me feel old!!
