It'll be interesting to see how Nintendo approaches free-to-play. F2P can be very good, but if done incorrectly, be awful.

Makes enough sense to me. The Wii U not being able to run it is a pretty good excuse.

@TysonOfTime 'cept in TF2 those hat's drop if I'm correct. (Never played it, but most of my friends do)

NA got an update this morning, but I haven't checked the plaza yet.

Despite our mixed feelings for CoD (judging from the comments), this is actually quite the blow as even a slimmed down version of it was available for the Wii.

I missed E3 so I'm going off of what's floating around the internet, but since I haven't heard much new 3DS news I'm kinda disappointed.

I don't think the Wii U can really compete with the PS4 at $350, with a mere 32GB storage and little to no 3rd party support. I hate to be the one to crash the Wii U's party but at least for me, the PS4 offers much more value at the current price range.

Some pretty good games up there. Too bad I already own a 3DS... and live in America

@Rief True enough I suppose. Skylanders is for people that can afford to do this sort of thing or who have incredible self control so that limits the audience by a lot.

@DESS-M-8 In the US a Wii U + Wiimote + Game = roughly $450. Now, a PS4 will be $50 expensive sure, but it has 3rd party support, which makes it the better purchase in my mind for the extra $50.

I'd get the VC release if it was real (Don't own a Gameboy, sorry).

Sounds interesting for sure. The first game was pretty fun, and this seems to change enough up to warrant a new purchase.

@Rief Well, it's not entirely Activision's fault because when you need figures the prices are bound to be high.

True enough. Not sure if I can but two consoles (definitely not during the same time) but the PS4 is definitely the priority here. Sorry, Nintendo, but without 3rd parties I'd rather pay $50 and upgrade to a PS4.

Legally speaking, you never buy a game, just license it. At least that's what I've read in the back of game manuals.

Makes sense to me. It's not EA's job to build the Wii U up, it's their job to keep it up once it is.

Looks good. The 3DS version looks like it'll hold up against the Wii U version, so all my worries have been satisfied

They announced this already correct? No rumor here.

Physical for me. Can't beat having the case & cart, but if it's sold out I'll go digital.

@Araknie That sounds good. As long as we get some info on the announced 3DS games I'm good.

@Stark_Nebula That was the weirdest video I've ever seen...

When will it come to the 3DS... that's all I want to know >.<

Unfortunately for me, I cannot pick up the game until tomorrow

I'm interested in Swap Force... sounds like it could be interesting.
@rjejr Nice to see someone else who thinks Mario is a cash cow.

Iwata, I need you to come back! I only have 2 purple pieces for Fire Emblem: Awakening D:

3DS-Wii U cross platform play!

I'll be getting Animal Crossing physical.

Huh. Hope they find him. Those fans can be dangerous.

Can't help but laugh at the people blaming the devs/publisher. If no one buys it on the Wii U, no one get's it on the Wii U. It's how this stuff works.

Never played an AC game but I still plan on picking this up.

I hope the 3DS' announced games get some attention. With Pokemon releasing in october and Zelda releasing in the holiday season they need to give us some details :/

@Shiryu Well, 3G wasn't originally gonna have a Wii U version, but Capcom decided to do it later, so I'd bet it'll get one.

Why do they need to register a new system? All my friends who are gonna buy one already have one... and I'm in the US.

I almost want to congratulate them on building one. IMO the flashcart isn't really a problem, but the fact you can get roms is.

@beat It's not out to the fourth. I know, kind of annoying when that sort of thing happens.

@theblackdragon Lol, I like in a small town outside of Raleigh but I still manage to miss the events. Unfortunately for me Fayetville is an hour away

Hahahaha... "What's the point of having a woman if she doesn't take her clothes off at every opportunity" Played Other M, lol?

Certainly looks interesting. Not sure how I feel about the villains, though.

I'm waiting to judge the XboxOne 'till after E3. Every time on representative confirms something, another comes out and says the opposite.

@rcmadiax It's probably going to be in Japanese, so the time zones are the least of your issues (but it'll be 8AM here)

@expa0 ... Oh yes, I'm sure the last generation of people were much smarter about this on their first run of this game.

@bunnyking That'd be interesting... stamina added a level of difficulty to the game I liked. Without it I'll just end up holding the run button the whole time.

Another nail in the 3rd party coffin.

Alan Wake, Alan Wake's American Nightmare, and Guild Wars 2. Picked up the bundle for Alan Wake on humblebundle.com/weekly and I'm close to getting my next ascended in GW2 so I'll be going for that all weekend.

@demonta4 "fair" isn't the right word, but normal is :/

@MarioFanatic53 Yes they do. We have 0 information on LoZ 3D, and no information on Yoshi's Island. I'm not saying announcements, just information on previously announced titles. The 3DS has had a flurry of announcements but little information on those. The Wii U has a couple of announced titles too, but no information on them, and they both need attention. They aren't competing for conference time this year, so what's the problem with giving them both attention?

Lucky, lucky Europe...

@seronja The reason for DLC is there has been no proven market for it, so all of the devs/pubs are playing it safe until someone works up the nerve to do it. Lame I know, but I find it understandable.

@MarioFanatic53 ... Lol, wouldn't it be better if the Wii U and 3DS were amazing AT THE SAME TIME!?! I know, far to radical for our human mind to process, but with a good release schedule both consoles could shine at the same time. Now, you do realize that they haven't shown us anything about most of the games they've announced? The Wii U needs announcements, and the 3DS needs elaboration on previous announcements.
