THENAMESNORM commented on Nintendo And SEGA Have Yet To Reveal Another E...:
I would love this to happen, there are some great ideas in Sonic & All Stars, but i prefer the execution of Mario Kart. Handled correctly, it would be epic. I'd personally love to see Nintendo & Sega Kart than Sonic and Mario Kart, but whatever transpires with Mario Kart U I'll accept anyway.

I agree with DKDonkeyKong, it's not very long until the next one, and there will be some fantastic games on show there.

I'd certainly be interested in buying it.

THENAMESNORM commented on Talking Point: The Wii U Virtual Console Has S...:
I think it will be around xmas time before we really see many "new" vc titles, and maybe next year before Gamecube games become available(which I'm convinced they will at some point) But I'm really excited about the possibility of GBA releases.

I have the WiiWare and PSN version, both are great!

For anyone unsure, It is investing. You give your money for something in return. It is not a donation.
Oh, and this game looks and sounds awesome!

I'd love for Wii ttitles to be available digitally, If they were reasonably priced of course!

THENAMESNORM commented on Feature: Robust DLC Ensures That Fire Emblem: ...:
DLC is optional. I love Fire Emblem games, and I'm always really sad when they are over, and want to replay them. Dlc for FE:A means that if I WANT a fix, I can get it easily! And the fact that it's not essential to get the most from the game actually suits me and most people - If you don't want it, don't get it! But I have it, and I don't regret it!
#9
THENAMESNORM commented on Video: The Many Control Schemes of Call Of Dut...:
Great video! I had already pre-ordered BO2 for my 360 before I pre-ordered my Wii U, but I'm still tempted to pick up the Wii U version as I'd love to play on the GamePad or Pro Controller. If only it were a little cheaper....
#10
THENAMESNORM commented on UK Retailer Asda Slashes Basic Wii U Bundle Pr...:
I always prefer to buy on day one, and admittedly I don't get the best price for it, but it allows me to get used to the hardware etc so there are no regrets from me, loved every minute of playing my Wii U so far.
#11

Great to see another top game getting a more competitive price point!
#12
THENAMESNORM commented on Hands On: Seeing The World in Wii U Panorama View:
I like the videos, however we all want this these things for less. I'm happy to have paid the price, but I feel there should have been a little more included. Call me crazy, but I tried this at a Wii U event pre-launch, and I'm sure it gave objectives like Wii Sports Resort jogging does(to spot certain things and test your memory) but I can't see any trace of it here. Did I just imagine it was there in the preview build? Or did it not make the final cut??

THENAMESNORM commented on Wii U and 3DS Online Connection Rates Exceed 80%:
Im in the UK and I always encourage others to go online. I cannot tell you the number of people - even just within the last week - that I have shocked by telling them that they can download old N64, NES, SNES and Mega Drive games from the virtual console! It really is incredible that so many people do not know one of it's major functions!
#14
THENAMESNORM commented on Miiverse Now Available In Your Browser:
This is great, just had a quick look and bookmarked it! Works great! Although I'd rather be able to create new posts, I can accept for now that it's not available - though I'm expecting this to be addressed soon!
#15
THENAMESNORM commented on One Of Shin'en's Forthcoming Wii U Titles Will...:
I thought FAST was a great WiiWare title, and would love to see a sequel. I'd still prefer to have a new F-Zero - and I believe Shinen would be an ideal developer for it given how good FAST was - but I'll take whatever's coming!
#16
THENAMESNORM commented on Talking Point: The Arrival of eShop Download C...:
While I love physical boxed and artwork, you cannot beat convenience of a download. And to be honest, I'm seriously considering LM2 at the moment based on the fact that the Game website has it discounted as a download code!
#17
THENAMESNORM commented on Airship Combat Title Guns Of Icarus Online Cou...:
This actually looks really good!
#18
THENAMESNORM commented on Wii U Virtual Console Will Arrive Shortly Afte...:
@rdenton85 Baloon Fight was released as 50hz at the start of the VC trial campaign, but both F-Zero and Punch Out have been 60hz versions - and most likely because of massive feedback from the Miiverse community!! Result! However going forward I do not know what the intentions are.
#19
THENAMESNORM commented on Wii U System Update Coming Next Week:
Launch day VC titles are still to be confirmed, but the previous 30p/30c releases will defo be there, as will Super Mario World(which seemed to take forever to come to the Wii VC!!) but I'm not that bothered if there's not a massive number of games of available from day 1, I'm more interested in a steady and consistent stream of games arriving for the service!
#20
THENAMESNORM commented on Believe, People - EarthBound Is Coming To The ...:
@Angelic_Lapras_King Too true, now all we need are plenty of people in the Fire Emblem Snes vc miiverse to tell them we want it localised!
#21
THENAMESNORM commented on Nintendo Direct: Watch The European 3DS Presen...:
brilliant presentation, and great to see that nintendo listened to everyone(myself included) that posted on MiiVerse to get Earthbound released everywhere else! It's just a shame they haven't listened about Fire Emblem!
#22
THENAMESNORM commented on Nintendo Direct: Watch The European 3DS Presen...:
@trossy998 that is probably the best shout ever!
#23
THENAMESNORM commented on Nintendo Direct: Watch The European 3DS Presen...:
I'm hoping of a firm release date for GBC zelda's, gba vc games and a huse sale for retail download software!
#24
THENAMESNORM commented on eShop Leaks Possible Date For Mario and Donkey...:
Can't wait for this. All the games in this series are fantastic, but there seems to be something extra special about this one!
#25
THENAMESNORM commented on BIT.TRIP Runner 2 Dashing To European Wii U eS...:
It's £9.99, not £10.79 as advertised, which is strange, but great news! Also, there's no EU community to accompany it! I can access the American one, but it doesn't recognise that I've played the game!
#26

Wait a minute - there's seems to be a glaring omission from the list! Soleil/Crusader of Centy!!

Brilliant! The little things make a big difference!
#28
THENAMESNORM commented on Next Level Games Has A "Top Secret" Title In D...:
It's most likely either Mario Strikers 3DS or U, or Luigi's Mansion for the Virtual console or an HD remake. And I would take any of those options!
#29
THENAMESNORM commented on Criterion: Support Need For Speed: Most Wanted...:
I've got the money in my eshop account so I can download it this friday, so I hope others show their support too!
#30
THENAMESNORM commented on Read The Thoughts of Monsters in Resident Evil...:
I - like many other's - feel that Wii remote & Nunchuck controls are essential for this title. Thus, I will be skipping it.
#31
THENAMESNORM commented on Nintendo Download: 21st March 2013 (Europe):
I agree, we should be able to choose more than one download! Punch Out!! Is a must for me again this week, but I selected Need for Speed Most Wanted U as I'm making it my first retail download! Plus Harmoknight demo. Its a great week, made even better by another 60hz VC game! Well done Nintendo of Europe for listening!

Sensational!
#33
THENAMESNORM commented on LEGO City Undercover: The Chase Begins Hitting...:
Looking forward to it, although I'm waiting for reviews before deciding on a purchase!
#34
THENAMESNORM commented on Dead Island: Riptide Is Skipping Wii U:
It's disappointing but nothing I can't live with.
#35
THENAMESNORM commented on Donkey Kong Country Returns 3D Swings Into a R...:
loved the wii game, but I hope this one has some extra stuff to make the double purchase worthwhile!
#36
THENAMESNORM commented on Fire Emblem: Awakening's US Sales Are The Best...:
I want the physical copy, but I have to be honest, I'm very tempted to go digital for this one. I love the box art etc but with the digital version I need never be without it! No more carrying the cartridge around!
#37
THENAMESNORM commented on Remake Request: Langrisser:
I'd certainly buy this whether it was released on the Wii U VC or a re-make. Hopefully someone is paying attention!
#38
THENAMESNORM commented on UK Supermarket Chain Asda Preparing a Bid for HMV:
Asda have been trying to increase their share in the entertainment sector for a while now and I think this would be great news! I really hope HMV come through this as there are so few places on the high street nowadays that have the sheer variety in electronic entertainment that they offered!
#39
THENAMESNORM commented on The Nintendo DS Celebrates its 8th Birthday in...:
I remember buying mine from Virgin Megastore in Glasgow, I got the DS with a Nintendo DS t-shirt, Super Mario 64 DS and WarioWate Touched! for £124.98! Ridiculous!
#40
THENAMESNORM commented on Resident Evil: The Mercenaries 3D Price Slashe...:
I already bought the game when it first came out, and although I haven't played it in a VERY long time, I don't have any regrets of the full price purchase! It's a great game, and I love the 3D effect in it too!
#41
THENAMESNORM commented on Review: Castlevania: Lords of Shadow - Mirror ...:
@KeeperBvK you know what? I always try and stay calm when I read comments like yours, however the time has come for someone to say - your comments are moronic.
I'm sure If you reviewed the game you'd give it a different score - and that's your opinion!! That's what a review is! However it doesn't matter how many time's it is said, clearly there are people like yourself who aren't quite able to grasp this. Everyone is entitled to their own opinion, and we can all disagree with it. But grow up, and take your hatred elsewhere please.

THENAMESNORM commented on Wii U System Update Adds "Stability Improvements":
As @Cornishlee stated, Spring has only JUST begun so there are still almost 3 months left for Nintendo to deliver their promised Spring update.
#43
THENAMESNORM commented on Hardware Classics: Nintendo Super Famicom:
It was only a few years ago that I was aware of the different look for the US Snes over the UK one, but I have always and will always love the UK/Jap design more!
#44
THENAMESNORM commented on Monster Hunter 3 Ultimate's 3DS Online Multipl...:
While I believe this function should have been in the game from Day One, it's nice to see it being added for launch. But I agree, perhaps not that many people will use it.
#45
THENAMESNORM commented on The Conduit Getting HD Remake For Mobile Tegra...:
I loved the Conduit, and would happily purchase it again from the Wii U eShop! So long as it's given a sensible price!
#46
THENAMESNORM commented on Rhythm Hunter: HarmoKnight's US Price Is Revealed:
The game looks great so the price is reasonable. I don't think there should be a limit on what companies charge, as long as it represents value, and they are sensible about it then that's fair enough! I'm hoping for £12.99 in the UK although I'm expecting £14.99.
#47
THENAMESNORM commented on "Emergency Maintenance" Planned For Nintendo O...:
Anyone who thinks that Miiverse is impossible on 3DS is sadly mistaken. Whether it comes or not, it IS possible.
#48
THENAMESNORM commented on The Legend of Zelda Oracle Titles Coming to Ja...:
I'll be getting both for sure!!
#49
THENAMESNORM commented on Future Wii U Need For Speed Titles Will Ship O...:
Great news, I have held back on getting this game for my 360 so I can get it for the Wii U and with all the positive statements Criterion are making it just vindicates my decision! I want to buy games from people who love the console!
#50
THENAMESNORM commented on Nintendo Download: 21st February 2013 (Europe):
Brilliant week! Two demo's, price cuts and a 60hz VC game(where the difference between 50hz and 60hz is more obvious) that's more like it Nintendo!
