Knights of the Round remake please. Heck, just take on online multi and you can release all the beat em ups you want. That would be great fun on the Wii U!

@LzQuacker Why thank you. I think sports fans and Nintendo gamers would play it considering the popularity of American football.

@Forbsz They will make a page/story for the live stream.

@Kirk Ah, the classic, "If the game I want isn't shown, the whole Nintendo Direct stinks." Well the Nintendo games will appeal to the masses. And new games will be shown. Might be eshop games, but we will get surprise summer releases. Bank on it.

@Caryslan
"Battlefield 4 has the potential to dethrone Call of Duty, and the Wii U not getting it is a major blow."
HA! And maybe the Astros have a chance to dethrone the Rangers as the best baseball team in Texas! (Yeah that's a sports reference) And both games are utter crap to a free game called Team Fortress 2 on PC thats 5+ years old.

"Like it or not, there's a reason why EA is the largest third-party publisher and developer in the industry."
You do know they fired their CEO because of slumping sales, right? Being a million seller means nothing to a company like them. Ask Capcom, who sold 5+ million of RE6 and called that a failure.

"I love how people are just dismissing EA's lack of support as "no big deal" and "I don't care about their games." without any serious thoughts to the repercussions of what this means for overall third-party support"
Square Enix was not on Nintendo platforms for a decade, they survived. AND SE actually makes good games Nintendo people want to play.

" EA can get by on the PS3, PS4, Vita, Xbox 360, Next Xbox, and the PC."
Wait until they don't sell a million copies of their games thsi fall on PS4 and Next Xbox. You are going to see more support for PS360, because that's where the market base is. All 3 next gen consoles are going to suffer because the stock holders have too much power.

Dude, I'd rather have Indy developers on Wii U who have NEW IPS and not shoving out yearly installments of everything they make. And the games will be cheaper!

These sales are nothing compared to what we'll see in October when Pokemon X and Y come out. Hardware and software for 3DS is going to start flying off the shelves.

Amazing shots. Want this game, but still have 100s of hours to sink into MHTU for now. But will enjoy this when it comes out in 2014 hopefully in the US.

Fathers and mothers of gamers... SHAME ON YOU for not teaching your children how to play games! You made them grow used to tutorials, and look what has happened!

Society is falling apart, and this is another prime example. My child will learn how to play old school games the right way - by learning the controls from me, and figuring it out himself!

OK, kind of playing around. These posts are hilarous. Kids today are dumb.

@skjia This is a great point. Nintendo is trying to market.

This is really silly as a whole. I don't watch these things, besides once or twice when I to stuck in a game. There is no real money in it. Making a big deal over virtually nothing.

@MiNiStRy
I clearly didn't word my phrase well. I'm saying EA has 0 AAA titles. So if say the Wii U had 10 AAA titles coming out this year, no EA games coming out would still mean 10 AAA titles were coming to Wii U. I totally agree, EA makes total shovelware all the time.

Here's what I want, but I know it isn't going to happen:

They announce Nintendo All-Stars Football for North America. It will have more than 100 characters from many of Nintendo's franchises. It can get super arcadey, ala NFL Blitz but with Mario Strikers power ups, or it can go simulation - to fill the void of no Madden. And make sure to bring up EA, and mention that is game will have FREE DLC, and not nickel and dime you to death.

Or Star Fox. That would be swell. But we better get 5 games for the summer retail wise, and 2 or 3 for the eshop. We need games Nintendo. ASAP.

Darn, that knocked the potential number of AAA titles coming out this year down about 0. They don't make quality titles folk, we aren't missing anything. Especially nothing that will sell systems.

Basically Nintendo Life, I don't want to see another EA article on this website. They have abandoned Nintendo, and therefore anything they do from here on out is irrelevant to this site.

People need to stop stalking about Nintendo having a killer E3. They aren't really going to make any announcements at E3. All going to be Nintendo Directs. So we'll see what they have in store. 3DS will keep them making tons of money, and Wii U will be OK. Think DS/GCN era. Going to get interesting though.

Well that looks interesting. Never heard of it before, but that's worth a look on the eshop.

Though it's a big deal this isn't coming to Wii U, it's not a system seller. After all the first party titles come out this year, we will see wrestling next year.

I'm going to pick up this past year's version on PS3, because it has the Attitude Era stuff. The current wrestlers don't interest me nearly as much. Late 90s and early 00s were the peak of wrestling.

And with that, the 3DS will win the holiday, beating out PS4, Xbox Next and Wii U by a landslide.

Nothing to worry about. Stocks go up and down. Nintendo will be around for the long haul. I love puzzle games (and dragons), but they are a dime a dozen. This can't hold up long term. Heck, it's coming to 3DS. That tells you something right there - they want to actually make money on a platform that sells games for more than 0 cents.

Kind of cool, but you mark Mega Man's 25th birthday with a new game. Which this is not. But it is cool.

Of course PS4 and Xbox "Next" are going to struggle selling like Wii U. Developers know it too. Look at many of the PS4 launch titles. They aren't PS4 exclusives, most of them are available on a PS3.

Would you, as a gamer with a limited budget, upgrade to PS4 when you can still get the holiday titles on the PS3? Xbox is going to have the same problem, especially when both will be priced $500-$600. Wii U will not need a price drop, it's going to be the best value.

This generation is going to see a lot of flack from people for all three console makers.

I'd like to see a story going over the games released thanks to kickstarter and their review scores. I know each dev team is different, but I want to know if any of the games released from this end up being any good.

At $2, this might get enough attention to get people to buy and rate to warrant a sequel to hopefully fix the problems of this one, which don't sound awful by any means.

Might give this a try. The original looked fun, but just never picked it up.

More of the same old games. Want NEW OLD games please.

Great... hopefully it will be good.

I'll just keep saying it. When PS4 and Xbox next sell just like Wii U has in the beginning, devs will change their tune.

Or we'll just see constant support for 360 and PS3 and all of this gen will suffer.

Can't wait to see what developers say when PS4 and next Xbox sell just as well as Wii U. I'm starting to wonder if developers will just keep making games for PS3 and 360 and just ignore next gen at this point.

Will be this interesting to see this game above all the others and this kickstarter nonsense. If the game fails, or the Eternal Darkness sequel fails, that might be the demise of kickstarter.

No pressure guys

That is one heck of a rumor. Would love if someone could confirm or deny it. The system certainly runs quicker, but not sure about THAT much different.

That looks like boatloads of fun.

I will start off by saying "DLC is the DEVIL."

I do like how Nintendo is clearly making DLC after the game came out. Or at least they are hiding it well by not giving DLC out for weeks after the release. Doesn't feel like it's on the disc, or just cut from the game. It might, but at least they are hiding it well.

I know people will buy it, but I'm not. I will not buy DLC. Unless in cases of game of the year editions when it comes included. I want the whole game when I buy. I will not be nickeled and dimed to death. You people can be.

But Nintendo has to get this all solved, because it's important for the system. Because sadly most people don't seem to care about being nickel and dimed to death.

Some are pretty cool, some are weird.

Sadly, the Dragonair is cooler than Dragonite, What is up with that?!

@DarkCoolEdge Actually it doesn't. They ended up packing the game up and selling the full thing on retail. Which is what should have been done in the first place. I do plan on picking up Walking Dead eventually, but it will be for the whole thing for $5 during a Steam sale. Betting on Xmas for that to happen.

You mean Activision going years without trying new IPs is finally starting to catch up to them? About time. COD had to start falling apart from its mountain status eventually. Eventually people get tired of paying $60 a year + DLC for map packs. And Skylanders is way out of control. And well WOW should have started falling off the map a long time ago. MMOs with a monthly subscriber base is OVER. It's just OVER.

Try to get creative Activision. Or better yet, get N or get out.

Glad to hear MHTU is doing well. I know I'm getting plenty of play out of it. MH4 will be great as well, but I can wait since MHTU is very fresh right now.

Episodic gaming? I thought this nonsense went away a couple of years ago. No thanks.

Sounds like a challenging puzzle game, right up my alley. Will have to pick this up down the road for sure.

Why are they so afraid of making new Mega Man games? Makes absolutely no sense.

Doesn't look like it has a lot of action, but might be good for gamers who like exploring type games.

Amen. We need NEW OLD games.

If Nintendo wants things to sell, can't keep giving us the same games over and over.

EA isn't going to publish a game on a Nintendo system for a long tome. So this isn't Nintendo news.

Movie Tie in = shovelware. Nothing to see here people, move along.

How people can draw that well on Miiverse is amazing to me. But very fun to look at when I'm just sitting around on the couch.

Now $6k for a kickstarter I can live with. But for all these campaigns, these are games down the road. Would love more eshop games on the Wii U now.

If I could go to see this timeless classic, I would. 20 years, and Hollywood has yet to make another movie quite like Super Mario Bros!

Bah. More stuff we can already own on Wii VC.

NEW OLD games please!

33% of people say nothing? Really? All the sales, the free stuff. Nothing? Wow we got some picky people.

Does the Madden franchise sell Nintendo systems? No, it does not.

The series will be back on the Wii U next year ,when sales are up. Or better yet, they lose the exclusivity license, and another company will put a football game out on Wii U.

Or even better option, we get a Nintendo All-Stars football game with characters from all their franchise. It would sell better than a Madden game would on Wii U.

This is great news folks. us hardcore gamers will only see quality games on the good systems, and phones and tablets can get all the Imagine games, Cut the Rope and other crap.

@HeatBombastic Ah, you found an error. I meant to say "series." I've played 3 different Wario Ware games, but they are not for me.

Just before too many people get excited about this new Sonic title, I just want to remind you all about a little something.

You can all say your welcome now.

@Palom The headline is correct for AP style. Not that any gaming website follows AP style to a T, but in this case, that is correct.

And good for this guy. Hope he has the money to go through it. No company should be allowed to do what they did. If both companies go bankrupt, we won't be missing out on much.
