In this completely silly run of bite-sized features, we're going to write a new version of '12 Days of Christmas' with a Nintendo twist that will, hopefully, be good enough to sing.
Two Koopa Troopas
The original line is "two turtle doves", so we've made liberal use of the fact that Koopa Troopa is clearly based on a turtle and, er, flies like a dove? It was the first idea that came into our heads that's also relatively easy to sing in that line. We're not too worried about logic, in this series.
So far, then, our song is as follows:
On the First day of Christmas my true love sent to me,
A big chair in a Pear Tree.On the Second day of Christmas my true love sent to me,
Two Koopa Troopas
and a big chair in a Pear Tree
Be sure to share your suggestions for additional lyrics in the comments below; a classic Christmas song will be born.

I probably would've went with Two Turtle Shells, or Green Turtle shells, just to keep the same amount of syllables. But never-the-less, still not bad. I had a chuckle when I saw the image.
What's tomorrow for three French hens? Cuccos? Or if you went with French... Glass Joe?
How about three ds(3ds)same number of syllables right?
Sylables and similar content is hard to do, but I still like my "2 Bayonettas" line. Because Wii U got 2 Bayonetta games at once. Which makes sense, but getting Bayonetta 1 many years later was a nice surprise, and basically free as well. And skins.
And a Wii U under the Christmas tree (close enough, sorry 3DS, maybe next year)
Three stylus pens? Three mushroom men? Three cute pikmin?
Three cuccos clucking c'mon!
3 triforce pieces! And when you get to 5 if it hasn't been suggested 5 golden coins.
3 French hens, huh?
3 Starmen! Y'know, from Earthbound and SSB3DS Smash Run?
3 shiny Star Coins...
It should have been 2 Denpa Men
Huh...
I recently go the "The wolf among us" from the humble bundle store. I got a steam key and a telltales game key. I only want the steam key, so the following is the telltale game key if any one wants it.

@Captain_Gonru - I'm saving that for Christmas 2015, 2014 is Wii U holiday's to shine w/ so many games already slated for 2015. Though my birthday is in July so I wouldn't object to a new 3DS XL then.
3 DS... CMON! That's the best I can come up with lol
Maybe,
3 new characters in super smash bros DLC.
Maybe long, but I know you would Sakurai
5th day better be Five Monado Arts :3
@Midayle thanks for that, I've been wanting to try it!
Heh heh, I made up a whole Spongebob version of this several years back.
It's so awesome how easy it is to rewrite the words!
@Spoony_Tech 6 golden coins (Mario Land 2)
"3 miiverse friends"
"3 angry cuccos" though surely
@ThomasBW84 Well, in the traditional song, the third thing is "three French hens". In the Pokémon series, the Kalos region is based on France, and it is home to a native bird Pokémon called Fletchling. So how about "Three Fletchling" as the third lyric?
3 rare download$
Maybe, "three sacred treasures" from Kid Icarus? Just a suggestion.
Can 10 be 'ten worst Pokemon' in reference to the recent NL article?
