The Wiimote was used well in Zelda TP, Wii Sports and a handful of other games. The problem with the Wiimote was when they forced it in the dumbest possible ways. The UX was bad for the Wii Menu, Zelda SS and even Punch Out's main screen. Why do I have to point the remote at the screen to select options? There is a Dpad damnit!
All of the Wii VC titles should be on the Wii U VC by now. It is perplexing why this hasn't happened yet. The same goes for the 3DS VC which has been dead for quite some time now.
I know many want GC games on the VC but I would rather them release the other back catalog games first and then focus on GC and Wii releases.
Nintendo could help curb piracy if they released VC games more frequently. GBA games should be on the 3DS by now but they aren't and so some people who would have bought the, instead go out and pirate them.
Its disappointing that the VC service has been around for nearly 10 years and we are just now getting some big games. Nintendo needs to release more per week and more systems too. Where are the Sega games? Where are the SNES games on the 3DS? I have money to give Nintendo but they seem to not want it.
Region Locking means more control for Nintendo and less for consumers. I personally don't care that much about RL but I know there are people who are passionate about it.
The problem with Nintendo is that they hate EU/NA and focus all their efforts on Japan. Look at the VC for a good indication.
If they are releasing it that soon they should be hyping it now or by E3. Then again maybe Nintendo is trying a new approach by announcing a game and releasing it 3 months later.
The ability to have a backup in the cloud would be great for people who may lose their data. Also, think about cross platform saving. You have Chrono Trigger on the Wii U VC but you can keep playing on the 3DS VC.

20XX is underappreciated
Re: Community: Found A Great Game On Switch eShop? Send Us Your Recommendations
20XX is underrated. It is Mega Man X with Multiplayer and is Rouge Lite style game. Highly Recommend it.

This is the greatest hockey game of all time even after 17 years.

Its fun to watch some of these but I don't see the fun in playing them.

Hopefully they will fix this with the NX

Re: We Cannot Continue Without Winning, But It's Not As Simple As Moving Mario To Smartphones, Insists Iwata
Nintendo needs to stop piracy by giving people the option to purchase games legally on smart phones.
Re: Nintendo Download: 12th September (North America)
Nintendo's twitter announced Super Mario Bros but quickly deleted the tweet. Maybe it's coming next week.

Re: Club Nintendo Rewards Updated for May
Mario RPG is a great game but 200 points is ALOT to spend on it. Spend the $8 instead and save the 200 points for something more tangible.

Re: Smartphones And Tablets To Be "Primary Screen For Gamers" By 2017
If a handheld comes out with a D pad and physical buttons then Nintendo should worry.

Cmon Nintendo, get with the times!
Re: F-Zero Available To Download Now In North America
They need to allow offscreen play for all the games at once.
