Unchained Blades (3DS)

SSBB (Wii)

This is just, the irony of this situation. It's hilarious really, that's just the gamer side of me talking not my Nintendo heart.

LOL on this whole XboxOne thing. Just Lol at all of it.

I think the data theory is the most plausible, though I feel the environment theory can be implemented as well, at least in the PC potentially.

The Wii U is in a slump. On the other hand, I think MS should give up trying to sell their consoles in Japan. I mean look at those 360 numbers, they are below pathetic. I thought you would sell more than that just by having your item in stores and just letting it sit there till someone comes along.

I think Xbox one is going to lose a lot of their audience, and I NEVER thought I would ever say that. Nintendo should really win the console war at this point, they're the only company offering something truly unique. Marketing and games and the big N will be fine. Can they do that? Time will tell, Nintendo is known from straying from obvious and logical decisions...

I look at the headlines, though I didn't know the reveal was today. Not too interested in Xbox and Im lazy.

I don't know if I'll get Rayman just because by the time it comes out now there will probably be something I want more.

Well this was a good laugh. EA of all companies. Isn't that in the dictionary for the epitome of maker of mass produced garbage?

Sometimes people get stuck, so what. I have Metroid NES and I have played all sorts of hard retro NES/SNES games. Megaman you name it. Metroid NES is fricking ridiculous, no map? I'm 18 by the way, my gaming diet is 50/50 on classic and modern.

This really sucks, they should have people marry whoever they want and fix the glitch so it is possible to just do it normally. Sadly, Japan isn't the most progressive place in the world on marriage, so this doesn't surprise me.

I don't like this new direction, not because its new. I've seen series I liked make big changes I was OK with. The problem is they lost the essence of Castlevania. It doesn't have the same feel. I wanted a new direction, but not like this. As for Mega Man, its a cheap blow and with Konami's franchises they shouldn't be talking (Bomberman anyone?). Capcom needs to actually MAKE a MM game first before they evolve the series though. I don't want these franchises going sour, or dying off all together.

Designs are SO much better than Gen 5 so far.

Had the GBA version along with PAC Man GBC as my first two games. Also have the Wii version. Know this game like the back of my hand and is by far the best 3d Mario game and the ultimate in platforming. It deserves a 10/10.

@Emaan
I second that, the sound is so iconic of my childhood.

Lets be honest, the ads are pretty atrocious. What Nintendo needs are adds that are cool. Mix the 90s ads with some modern commercial humor and cut down on the cheese. The thing is people don't even know this thing exists. "Core" gamers don't even have Nintendo on their radar. When they advertised Awakening and Luigi's mansion 2 guess what, people bought it. Amazing what can happen when people know your product exists. This is a total failure on Nintendo's part. Why they can't apply their own logic for 3ds games to the Wii U is beyond me. What's the point of releasing it early if your not going to push for it? Might as well have released at the same time as their competitors. I usually trust the big N, but I have to admit if they have a plan, I sure don't fricking see it.

So according to this guy the Wii U don't exist. That is real encouraging for investors a land non Nintendo fans. It's better to admit thing aren't that good and will get better than ignore the problem all together.

This one actually slightly more sinister than Mewtwo in a strange way. At least this is more interesting than Muk or luvdisc lol.

@Chrono_Cross Well you are just a ray of sunshine? I don't think video games need to "grow up". Video games need to just be video games. How video games approach serious subjects are different than movies. Now I do believe video games should have more freedom exploring certain issues like sexual relationships and such, but I don't feel comfortable with this grown up narrative. Video games are a unique medium that does things a certain way.

Great narratives in games have been around since SNES days. The thing is though that certain games focus on different things. An RPG will probably focus more on story than a run and gun. Nothing wrong with that, just a different approach. Games are an interactive medium that has GAMEPLAY at its core. Whether it's making decisions or fast reflexes, that's what sets games apart. I do feel that games should be treated more maturely, but I don't want to make some super long mature game just for the sake of being mature. That's what I'm afraid this guy is promoting judging by his language. Video games are different from movies we should remember that and not lose sight by making pretentious boring games in the name of "mature".

Eh, I can overlook my annoyance for Capcom this one time. This looks cool and other companies who aren't at fault, including Monolith, are involved.

The mobile will come. I'm waiting for Miiverse on the 3ds.

Already knew this was going to happen. Not surprised.

Unchained Blades

Partially agree, Nintendo needs to step up the support. This is especially true for Japanese devs since that should be sort of a given. Yet, anyone who says Zelda hasn't been exciting since Ocarina is going to have some things wrong. TP is WAY better than Ocarina. I'm sorry but the Zelda series has been progressing comfortably and is way better now and then because they are a series that makes REAL progress. That and I would also note that I really feel the big N should go more niche Japanese system. I don't know if the big N can really break into the big Western games since that's not their fanbase. These other gamers may not come to the big N no matter what. They should sell themselves as the Niche system because it is a large market and would be easy for them to do.

I love Luigi, he has a lot of personality. Mario is great but I think most Nintendo fans like Luigi better because they spent more time making Luigi a unique character. Plus, he's got Daisy, another plus. I wish Daisy would make a major appearance along with Luigi (a bit off topic).

Good, maybe SE will get it's act together. They have been really weak in the past few years. How about they get creative, something, ANYTHING better than what they've been doing. Start getting serious about making good games again instead of screwing around like you've been doing SE.

@SMEXIZELDAMAN Why do you think? To make more money and allow the games to have a longer life span on the new system rather than the dead system. I am glad this is happening. I hate the DS emulation on the 3DS and this will allow the Devil Survivor games to be played on the new hardware and survive longer.

Ok Square, all you have to do is announce it is being localized. Don't pull a TWEWY iOS, please...

Maybe Nintendo will become software only some day, but that will be a VERY long time from now do to unforeseen consequences. Sony and MS could drop out too, and Sony is in REAL danger this gen. To say the Big N will drop anytime soon is silly.

It's a collector's item. Other than that it is useless.

Don't make another 2d mario for a LONG time. Just give yourself some time to think OK?

People don't want this, they want Rayman on time. Thanks, anyway though. We are still mad at you.

This actually made my day. It so low and pathetic it honestly just made laugh. Man, I honestly ROFLing right now. Oh Sony, don't throw stones when your in a glass house.

Sex sells, notice how all their, assets, run at different sizes. They devs wouldn't do it if they A) didn't like it & B) knew it wouldn't sell more copies. I as much as any guy is a victim of such tactics. It works, whether you agree or not its right, because a lot of guys are just going to automatically be attracted. Heck, I came here and posted this comment.

@Peach64 @SCAR392 Hey I'm sure it will be a great game but its not my cup of tea. Nothing wrong with that. It's like saying Mario is not someone's cup of tea. I'm going to disagree but hey that's the persons taste, nothing wrong with that. I would be lying if I were to tell you I had any interest in this game. Tons of games are amazing that I don't like because they just don't fit me.

New IPs are certainly welcome but I feel they need to revive their old IPs first. Stuff like F-Zero. Pikimin 3 is coming out so all these people better buy it that want new IPs. Nintendo needs encouragement like they are getting from Kid Icarus and Fire Emblem. Lets vote with our wallets!

I love Luigi. The main series needs a break so I don't mind stuff like Dark moon coming out.

Not interested. Not really into the whole super violent gangsterish type thing. I guess more sales for the Wii U the better.

The launch sales are sub par but the announced fames show there is light at the end of the tunnel. A tunnel that wasn't that long to begin with.

JRPGs, JRPGs, Bravely Default, and more JRPGs. Did I mention JRPGs?

Well, I don't think this will happen but it's a lot better hearing this than the trolls constantly saying Nintendoomed all the time on here. Really ANYTHING positive is nice right now. People are overreacting.

You know it's bad when the devs are basically showing out in the publishers face. Ubisoft, just reverse this horrible decision (releasing this in the holiday season, better sell this now when there is no competition) and move on from this pitiful chapter in your history.

?...seems a little odd Nintendo couldn't find ONE spot in there somewhere. They had a pretty decent run this year. No RPG category? If they had that Xenoblade would HAVE to be in there somewhere. Oh well, let's be honest these awards only mean so much any, games, movies, and otherwise.

...we don't need more evee evolutions. What are they going to get up to 36 evolutions at some point?

@ArkOne77 Honestly those games are just good enough to dget wawy with those prices to be honest. Plus they were limited release.

Nintendo should have a stronger focus on Japanese games. I find Nintendo gamers are gamers who play Japanese games anyway. If the keep the Japanese games and JRPGs coming, could care less if they have any worth while Western releases personally speaking.

I am not too excited about Lords of Shadow 2 anyway and I'm a huge Castlevania fan. Not really missing much...

I am expecting good things from this studio. Very. Good. Things.
