I think it's kind of weird that we haven't seen TLoZ:MM3D yet.. Sounds like a easy port considering they can just use the same engine as in OOT3D and let Grezzo develop it.
I find it weird that they haven't announced any playable antagonists yet.. I really hope they make some characters like Zant, Ganondorf, Skullkid, Yuga, Byrne, Chancellor Cole, Vaati, Ghirahim & Demise playable.
I'm hoping for a cool Limited Edition bundle or something. CoOp sound neat as well, I'm going to try to get a friend over and play it that way all the way through. Even a so-so game can get extremely fun if you're playing it multiplayer
@SphericalCrusher I've been trying to figure that out as well.
I think I'll actually play through the first one again just to get a re-cap on the story. It's been quite a while since I played the first game. It'll be a quick playthrough though, I will definitely be eager to play Bayonetta 2
@Wouwter
It is not like this is the first time this has happened though. In Pikmin you find batteries labeled "Duracell" and designed as a replica of their batteries (which is not optional to the game).
@gatorboi352 Isn't Child of Light a poor example since it runs in the UbiArt engine that was used for Rayman Legends, which does run in 1080p on the WiiU?
@SanderEvers For convenience. Same reason YouTube or FaceBook has one. It's bothersome to have to use the web browser to enter it. It would also manage to grab more peoples attention. I doubt even 2% of phone users know about Miiverse, having it appear on the store would make it more noticeable. Especially since its free.
I'm not saying they should scrap the web app. It's good for computers & stuff. But not having a downloadable app is a bummer to me. I've stopped using it on my phone.
That's far from the only country in the world you know.. Here E3 is only mentioned in gaming focused magazines or tech focused magazines. Not saying it's a small even, but still.
@Superiorspider You're proving your own point wrong.. People may as well expect all of that. No one is arguing the games will be out the week after E3. Release dates and expectations don't correlate.
I didn't think their E3 Direct last year was on par with any of their conferences. On the other hand, it was their first try and a lot can definitely be improved upon. Looking forward to seeing how they construct it this year.
Hopefully it won't disappoint. I personally know it won't though. I mean.. ZeldaU. Home console Zelda's are pretty much the definition of met expectations for me.

Re: Poll: Is Online Co-Op a Major Miss in Hyrule Warriors, or is Local Multiplayer Enough?
Re: Target Blast Mini-Game Blows Up on Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS
Sounds fun, I hope we get more new mini games.
Re: You Won't Be Able To Cross Swords Online In Hyrule Warriors
Well.. That sucks.
Re: Nintendo and Koei Tecmo Hosting Fatal Frame Broadcast on 17th July in Japan
Cool. I really hope the GamePad is used as the camera, it's so perfect!
Re: Captain Falcon, Lucina and Robin All Join The Super Smash Bros. Roster
Two new characters? Awesome
It's also nice to see a electric character that isn't a pokémon Loved the video!
Re: Rayman Trophy Revealed For Super Smash Bros. On Wii U And 3DS
Rayman being in would make me so freaking happy!
I've wanted him since SSBB!
Re: Fi Confirmed For Hyrule Warriors Along With Skyward Sword Costumes For Link And Zelda
I find it weird that they haven't announced any playable antagonists yet.. I really hope they make some characters like Zant, Ganondorf, Skullkid, Yuga, Byrne, Chancellor Cole, Vaati, Ghirahim & Demise playable.
Re: Tomonubu Itagaki Thinks Gamers Will Buy A Wii U Just For Devil’s Third
Hah, no way. This will be a nice addition to the WiiU library, but in no way a system seller.
Re: Fi Confirmed For Hyrule Warriors Along With Skyward Sword Costumes For Link And Zelda
Cool, need to see a trailer of Fi's fighting style before I can tell if this is good or 'meh' news.
Re: First Impressions: Hyrule Warriors Is Zelda, But Not As We Know It
@FlaygletheBagel
Agreed.
I really hope they manage to lock the framerate at 30fps in the final product.. Seems kind of unlikely though, since its releasing so soon..
Re: First Impressions: Hyrule Warriors Is Zelda, But Not As We Know It
I'll probably get it just because it Zelda..
I'm hoping for a cool Limited Edition bundle or something. CoOp sound neat as well, I'm going to try to get a friend over and play it that way all the way through. Even a so-so game can get extremely fun if you're playing it multiplayer

Re: Report Suggests Bayonetta 2 Will Come With Original Bayonetta on a Separate Disc in North America
Sweet!
Was hoping this would be the case!
Re: Hacker Claims to Demonstrate an Exploit to Mod a Wii U System and Mario Kart 8
That's pretty cool. I love how giddy they get when they make it work
Definitely seems like something they did/wanted to try to do just for fun.
Re: Talking Point: Mii, Myself and I - The Arguments For and Against Miis in Super Smash Bros.
It's a shame they're not useable online.
Re: E3 2014: Hyrule Warriors Not Part of Zelda Timeline, More Like an Avengers Spin-Off
Got pretty obvious to me once they showed of Imp Midna & Wolf as a playable character.
Re: E3 2014: Nintendo Rolls Out New Kirby Game Trailer For Wii U
I love the DS one, best Kirby game I've played. Definitely looking forward to this! Love the visuals as well!
Re: Satoru Iwata Won't Attend E3 For Health-Related Reasons
Won't make a difference since everything will be pre-recorded. Hope he gets well soon though.
Re: Wii U System Update 5.0.0 Now Live, Adds Quick Start Menu And GamePad Notifications
Love updates that contain features I didn't know I wanted.
I'd love it if we could get folders at some point though..
Re: Meet Sticks, The New Member of Sonic Boom's "Core Ensemble"
That is a very annoying voice for her character. Unfortunate.
Re: Mario Kart 8 DLC Confirmed for Japan With Free Mercedes Car
@Wouwter
It was the only IRL hint in the game. Take a guess.
It didn't look bad, but out of place. Just like this.

Re: Mario Kart 8 DLC Confirmed for Japan With Free Mercedes Car
I find that hilarious. It looks sooooo weird, haha.
Re: 3DS Tops Japanese Hardware Chart as Wii U Secures Home Console Crown
Man.. The WiiU & Ps4 are just getting ignored over there. Sad to see them sell that low.
Re: Digital Foundry Pins Down Mario Kart 8's Resolution and Framerate
@memoryman3
Rayman Legends uses loads of 3D models though. What is the difference?
Re: Digital Foundry Pins Down Mario Kart 8's Resolution and Framerate
@gatorboi352
Isn't Child of Light a poor example since it runs in the UbiArt engine that was used for Rayman Legends, which does run in 1080p on the WiiU?
Re: Digital Foundry Pins Down Mario Kart 8's Resolution and Framerate
So the game is neither 1080p nor 60fps.
Not that it matters, but still. Kind of funny.
Re: The Wii U Version Of Super Smash Bros. Will Utilise The NFC Nintendo Figurine Platform
Ugh.. Please no..?
Re: Hyrule Warriors Screenshots and Gameplay Details Emerge
The artstyle for the characters is great. Link looks fantastic.
Re: PDP Confirms the GameCube-Inspired Wired Fight Pad For Wii and Wii U
Looks awful.
Re: Tecmo Koei Hopeful That Hyrule Warriors Will Tap Into Zelda Fanbase and Hit One Million Sales
I'll wait for reviews. If it's just a Samurai Warriors skin, I'll skip it.
I'm hoping they make something interesting with it.
Re: Nintendo Hosting Two Big Evening Presentations at E3
@Jetset
Yes..?
Nintendo owns 100% of Monolith Soft. It's a first party studio.
Re: Nintendo Hosting Two Big Evening Presentations at E3
Could be Monolith Soft's 3DS title, that looked very intriguing in concept art.
Re: Talking Point: For Better Or For Worse, The Wii U GamePad Is Here To Stay
I don't mind the GamePad. I just wish more games utilized it better. Wind Waker HD was great!
Ditching it would be incredibly stupid though. Would be better to ad a Pro Controller with the Console than ditch the GamePad.
Re: Video: Nintendo Shows Off The Wii U's Forthcoming Quick Boot Menu
@SilverArrow
Only difference I can see is that this was recorded in real-time. Shouldn't have taken them this long to make it work IMO.
Re: Video: Nintendo Shows Off The Wii U's Forthcoming Quick Boot Menu
Same video as last time?
This should have launched by now IMO. Been a long time coming.
Re: Nintendo Reveals 'Mario Kart TV' Web App in Financial Results Briefing
@SanderEvers
For convenience. Same reason YouTube or FaceBook has one. It's bothersome to have to use the web browser to enter it. It would also manage to grab more peoples attention.

Re: Satoru Iwata Announces 'Nintendo Figurine Platform' to Utilise NFC for Wii U and 3DS
I don't see how people find this desperate. The WiiU was built with NFC from the get-go, this has obviously been on the drawing board for a long time.
Re: Nintendo Reveals 'Mario Kart TV' Web App in Financial Results Briefing
Why just a Web app?
Both this and Miiverse would benefit from having an actual AppStore/AndroidStore app.
Re: Bayonetta 2 Listed for Summer Release in Japan
Cool. Hope we get a set release date for EU at E3.
Re: Satoru Iwata Announces 'Nintendo Figurine Platform' to Utilise NFC for Wii U and 3DS
Not a fan of having to buy figurines to play games.
Re: Here's a Video of The Temple of Time Made With Unreal Engine 4
Looks pretty awful considering what he was going for.
It looks more like an Egyptian themed temple rather than something medieval.
Re: Nintendo Lifts The Lid On Its Plans For E3 2014
@gatorboi352
I'm well aware. But you act as if that would matter for other countries. The importance of E3 over here is nowhere near as big.
Re: Nintendo Lifts The Lid On Its Plans For E3 2014
@gatorboi352
Where? In the US?
That's far from the only country in the world you know.. Here E3 is only mentioned in gaming focused magazines or tech focused magazines. Not saying it's a small even, but still.

Re: Capcom Unsheathes An Announcement Trailer For The New Ace Attorney Title
Very interesting direction. I like it.
Re: Nintendo Is Shutting Down Its Taiwan Subsidiary
That's not good. Sad for the people losing their jobs.
Re: Nintendo Shows Off New Courses for Mario Golf: World Tour
I love that RETRO's DKC series have brought new life to Donkey Kong in all of these franchises. First Mario Kart & now this. Lovely to see.
