Honestly this was a very good week for games. Stick to the Man for me.

@BigH88 Just plan to take the day off, that's what I'm doing haha. Smash Fest here I come!

@Ryno UK though gets 10 options to pick from for their Mario Kart deal while the US has 4.

@SCAR392 Don't indies even get adverts from Nintendo on their YouTube channel?

Something tells me that the creator of Braid and Phil Fishy would just laugh if you asked for about the Wii U. Don't know, just get that vibe from them,

It just so happened that a lot of the games that I wanted to play were by Nintendo xD

Honest to god, I was a huge gamer during the 64 era and not once did I go, oh yeah that's Nintendo made game I'm going to buy that because it was made by Nintendo. I just bought games that I thought were fun like Bomberman 64. To be young again.

I believe it was supposed to be something like, 'OH yeah cuz those games are SOOOO new"

@BinaryFragger I believe he was trying to use sarcasm

@Yorumi ah, that I can agree with. As an aspiring developer myself I can safely say that I can agree that I do hate it when people just throw out games and how pretentious some of them can be. One of the few interviews I remember hearing from an indie that made me mad was from the creator of Braid, now don't get me wrong he's a great developer but I can not stand his pretentious attitude toward gaming as an art. Yes it is an art, don't be a jerk about it though.

@Yorumi hard to disagree with that too. However I'm huge platformer fan so I don't get sick of them haha, still excited for Hat in Time in fact. But yeah I could see the indy scene getting a lot smaller than it is. However, I feel like me personally will be integrated in it to it for awhile. I don't support everything game that someone screams indie, but when I see games like Hex Heroes with brilliant ideas or games that I want like Mighty No 9 I go ahead and try to support it.

I don't know if you'd think I'm part of this indy fad, but I do like helping indies that really have a lot of heart because yes it can be a hard ride making a game idea become reality. I don't think any of this really has to do what we were debating anymore, more of the fact that I needed to vent. I respect your opinions and they have given me a nice look at the other side.

Also about the Adelman thing, I just went to his Twitter and the last post he made on the 12th of October had nothing to do with Region Locking

@R_Champ Hmmm, I do agree that the current phase is huge and will probably water down after most see that the act of just making a game won't bring in money. I still don't think indies will go away especially when things like Steam exists and indies do rather well...well most of them anyways.

@Tobias95 Indian developer? Haha I know its a typo, but there's a difference between those.

@Yorumi you make some great points and I do agree with some, but I honestly don't find "Indies to be like punk" aka a fad. Indies are around because of the ease it is now to create games at home. To me that's like saying 3rd parties are a fad, I just don't get it. I also think Nintendo does a lot of things for benefits for indies, but they don't truly communicate them the best they can. Indies are important, but no you are right Nintendo shouldn't just roll over for them.

There definitely needs to be some communication with Nintendo to make the process easy for Nintendo. I don't think Nintendo should help pay for every indie out there, but they should think about helping a few that they have great interest in, hell they might even make it an exclusive.

I honestly have always liked this kind of idea

*hope isn't real

My bad

I don't know if I'm in the minority on this, but yeah I kind of agree with the whole being open thing. There are some aspects that should be kept remote, but advertising things like their Unity deal and just having someone that can talk to indies is crucial. I'd honestly hope that controversy on Twitter is real, it is important to have people like that even if it is on Twitter. I'd like to give Nintendo the benefit of the doubt on this one.

Day one for me

Child of Light for me.

Never tried it, but I remember hearing a lot of great things about it. Would love to give it a try on my Wii U.

I'm so happy to be a backer of this, it had a great little community and was a lot of fun to do a stream for Hex Heroes as well.

Hex Heroes is at $56,000 so that's good, I hope people donate before its too late....hey you if you haven't donated to Hex Heroes, go look into it!

@TwilightV I do love the stage show, but I completely agree. I don't know why reporters have to be so jaded about reveals. Even a little applause would be nice, I could only imagine if they would allow more fans to come in instead of mostly press. Every reveal would be like the Twilight Princess reveal haha.

Golden Sun baby!

There seriously needs to be something done about patent trolling, this is getting too ridiculous.

We can always hope for an update.

Honestly on TV they are barely advertising this as a game console, it seems to try and attract people who want to watch TV...kinda like the Xbox One did.

I'm actually a confirmed Catholic and to be fair my Church never really had a stance on that since half of the church is torn personally by the politics. Personally I say go for it, I think Same Sex marriage is a right people have...however in the game this was actually a game breaking glitch, so I don't think anyone should take offense to it (which I know none of you have I'm just saying in general). Should they make a patch so you could do so? Sure, why not.

I honestly just saw a fun game and plan on buying it. I really do hate politics it brings out the worst in people, but they are worth discussing.

@3dcaleb yeah I agree with that statement. I don't think they'd be the kind of people to torture their dog. Hopefully, he does love the attention.

Well I guess if the dog is comfortable, I wouldn't know. I've only ever had cats and he hates getting dressed up. However, there does seem to be a fair amount of hard work put into it, kudos for that.

I just don't want to see the number "2015" at all in this direct.

Sounds awesome, I will totally support this.

Own all except 8...

I can't tell what's real life and what isn't anymore!

Guys there are 50+ indie games coming, they're not going to post them all

Where do you guys find those prices?

@Phantom_R I have absolutely no problems with Red Shells since they can easily be blocked by bananas, green shells or making super sharp turns.

@Yorumi I honestly had no problems playing the Wii single player mode, I didn't get all the 3 Stars like I did on 7, but I did fairly well. I only ever had that occur to me once.

Just get rid of the cloud and you'll be gold. Honestly have never had a problem with Blue Shells....unless its at the very end of the race when I'm about to pass the finish line! The fact that the Spiney Shell is in instead of the Flying Blue Shell also makes me happy.

Had to vote for Persona Q, I'm hyped for Smash and Shovel Knight, but I never once in my life imagined getting Persona on Nintendo 3DS hahaha.

@Kaze_Memaryu I wouldn't call this extreme, it was probably one of the tamer jokes I heard to be honest, hell its not 'A Modest Proposal'. It just kind of had a high school bully feel to it. Its just kind of a meh joke too. But I admit its a joke even if it is a pretty meh joke it still is one, feelings are going to be hurt, it is April's Fools Day after all.

I can finally beat Top Gun while cooking a delicious pizza

"I'm an apple at heart" hahahaha classic. Can I change my vote to Mighty No. 9 haha?

This is the very definition of voting with your wallets. I voted for Bravely Default, and I regret nothing! Its freaking awesome.

I love One Piece, I'll gladly get this for my Wii U since I did enjoy Unlimited Adventure for the Wii

Advance Wars for me, never got to play it when it was out, and its too pricey for me in hard copy at least at my local store. Its also BS we get Advance Wars, but Japan gets Advance Wars 1 + 2 :I

Mother 3 would be amazing, all my money at the screen! That's my favorite in the series, even though it is very different story wise from the first two.

I've been watching Ace of Diamond, so now I want this more haha
