Anyone have any info on the adapter hes using to play GBA games on N64 in the photo above?

"There’s no download content or microtransaction content developed specifically for Pokémon X and Y. We’ve not come up with any ideas on that yet. I like the idea that Pokémon can be enjoyed with just one piece of software. You buy the game and it can be enjoyed just with that one software that you buy. That’s a key point for Game Freak."

Im glad there are developers that still think this way. DLC and constant game patching are really starting to sour my gaming experiences as of late. constant paywall, nickle and dime tactics. then game companies get mad when no one buys that crap to begin with. People didnt have any problems throwing 60 bucks at a game 2 generations ago because they knew the game was stacked with content. now its like, let me wait as long as possible before I purchase this game because when I get home I gunna have to cough up another 30 to 60 bucks just to get the whole experience.

sorry,old man rant, gunna run out and pick up this game now.

maybe a demo?

It seems to me the iOS end of things is using all this negativity to try and get some nintendo quality to appear on its devices. Sorry, not gunna happen. I think alot of theses smart phone/tablet users thought that they were gunna get a real gaming experience on these devices thus getting rid of the need for a dedicated device.

my nephew has an ipod touch, he liked that thing for about a month, he soon realized all he could play was copycat junk and and simple one touch games. now all he does is check out 9gag, listen to music and saving his money for a 2ds and a copy of pokemonx/y.

as a gamer with big hands, the shoulder buttons on this thing look great. Seems to me that nintendo has made a butt load of cash from the original and xl series to even have given this the ok. I also like the kid friendly approach, my nephew broke his 3ds plug port sometime ago, the hinge and L trigger are next.

it seems that this generation will be locked, as in no past games trading up. kind of glad about that as B&W are broken. I really dont want to see the games online features flooded with shinies and perfect stat pokemon. that kind of ruined it for me.

had potential , a delay or 2 could have really helped this one

all these sega 3d classics are great but where the hell are all the nes and snes 3d classics at? geez ninty get it together.

its games like this that makes me wish nintendo would let more companies co-dev some of their less popular/mainstream games, give these guys the wave race license, some cash and a little dev help for the old nintendo magic and BAM! new game for the WiiU , even better make it a capable/solid eshop exclusive with lower then retail cost. highly unrealistic, I know , but it would be nice.

@MrWalkieTalkie im thinking they received a bucket of cash that said xbone on it.

@Wanderhope I agree , if they would have held back the last 2 months worth of NDs ,their E3 ND would have looked spectacular.

KACHOU-ON!!! WAH-SHING!! i love gamecenter cx.

if nintendo ip ever graced other platforms , itll raise the bar on quality so damn high nobody would ever buy any of the other crap ever put out by anyone else, drop pokemon on iOS and nobody would ever think of playing the endless imitators released on that platform ever again.

it might be a good way to kill the competition, but itll never happen.

its ok , but would rather see an anime adaptation first.

cant wait, and 12 bucks a year for full service is not braking the bank.

if this game can keep the stages flowing like the sonic rush series, insta-buy.

potentially the model to be used in the new smash bros?

@dungeonmaster11 alot of perspective here, i think quite a few devs are going through this without saying it , especially those indies using kickstarter. well said.

Im a fighting game fan, but a few more factors are hurting the wii u in this genre, like an affordable arcade stick, the only one I found was the tekken tag 2 stick @ 160 bucks! no thanks

@mariobro4 my favorite. lol

instead of running out there full steam with a AAA title,why arent devs takiing the eshop into account and making something cost effective and entertaining, all the while; getting creative juices flowing with the gamepad and getting revenue .

low risk investment, easy stepping stone to gamepad and wiiu achitecture, and puts them in the spot of developer that cares, increasing the chances that next game will sell even better.

nice, this game has a jak and daxter feel to it. I like that.

@HaNks lol. good one.

bring back spaceworld

looks like a solid project with a capable dev behind it.

if turns out anything like chinatown wars with its great touchscreen functions,id get it day 1.

@ I agree, they have become alot easier as of late, I hope they capture the challenge of alttp for this one.

starship damrey is has a pretty cool concept, friday monsters looks cool too.

that was pretty good nintendo, i dont even have a wallet anymore, just moths,lol

@SunnyShores
majora mask would be nice and maybe a video of a working Miiverse 3ds , feels like forever since it was first announced.

@SunnyShores
I feel you , but even a new game or 2 for the eshop with the "available now" line they like to use would make it worth while.

I hope they drop a megaton. Really dont wanna see a recap on already announced games.

always wanted to make one of those, but after seeing what that guy went through, id go crazy.

i like the concept, but wanna see him with a transforming mega buster not the megaman II cover gun style.

this is sad, I thought they only bought the starwars ip not LucasArts/Films completely. hope those guys move on to disney interactive/buena vista games, loved to see them help with future kingdom hearts games.shame.

@3DSLUIGI i agree. regardless which platform,this game looks good.

not a big kickstarter fan, but for localization of an already finished product, id go for that

@Lopezdm i agree, this is the key problem in the industry right now, budget stability. AAA games ( like tomb raider) are turning 3.4 million units in one months time with still very unsatisfactory profits. if nintendos approach with "lower tech" , which it really gives devs strong tech with the ability to really push old/cheaper engines in new ways, works , it can be very benefical.

@Ryo_Hazuki-san
if this app or something similar came out on WiiU , id run out an get one right now!

@Deathgaze Sony is not in good shape not to mention holding the record for most studios closed this past generation.

legendary axe II and splatterhouse

alot of overreactions to the MercurySteam castlevania going on here, people acting like they made superman64 for the 3ds or something. To me its a refreshing take on retro castlevania, especially after 7 games of metriod-vania.

i found the first one at a pawn shop, its an ok game. dont see myself buying the "sequel" at all.

The art direction is lacking, outside of that though its ok.

@undead_terror that was the best part, totally random

i think many of these publishers are thinking that wii owners that upgraded to Wii U didnt own a 360 or ps3, the thing is wii went coupled with most gamers that had one or the other. Simply, these ports are far too old and to pick them up at "new" prices when they can be gotten for a third or less of the price for the other consoles in this kind of economy is a no-brainer that itll lead to poor sales.

@Void i agree

oh yeah!

kinda hyped about this, inchworm animation is great, but a little clunky.
