Don't do it, Nintendo! Nintendo Week is already gone, how are we going to get first-hand news from Nintendo? Present company excluded, Nintendolife... (please don't hurt me!)
Legend of Zelda: Four Swords/Adventures. Even though it wasn't a DS game, it was the first to utilize dual screen gameplay. I had problems getting my friends to play because not everyone had the game, the link cable, and/or the time to play. The online function of the Wii U would be perfect for all these problems.
I know we aren't talking about 3rd party characters, but what about more actual Nintendo characters? Like Shulk from Xenoblade, the Pokemon trainers from Gold/Silver/Ruby/Sapphire, etc, the return of Mewtwo, and dare I say it, PROFESSOR LAYTON?!
My only concern is how many extra lives you'll accumulate. I already have 300+ on all my other NSMB games, and what with there being thousands of coins in each level, the game might be too easy with the hundreds of lives you collect.
This is EXACTLY what I've been saying this whole time! And shame on those of you who went from "where's the #@*% circle pad?!" to "well I suppose we don't need it anyway." Seriously, check my previous comments, I HAVE PROOF!
For crying out effing loud! Who the f*ck cares about a second circle pad?!! THERE'S ONLY THREE GAMES THAT USE IT! The rest of the time you won't even use it!
But...how does it charge without the AC adapter? Perhaps just the charging cradle? Also, they can't just add a second circle pad, it would still be missing the ZL/ZR buttons. Why does everyone think the circle pad pro is just an extra circle pad?!
I've heard rumors of GameCube games being available to download on the Wii U. Usually Nintendo shoots down untrue rumors faster than Duck Hunt and I haven't heard any denial regarding the GameCube downloads.
Let me point out that this is actually the first time Nintendo launched a home console with a Mario game since Super Mario 64 with the N64. I'm not counting Luigi's Mansion as a "Mario" game.
@BONHOMME-7HEURE Congratulations, sir! You are the first to acknowledge Mega Man! Shame on the rest of you for complaining about what they didn't release.
Despite Kirby having less prestige than Mario and LoZ, the franchise has a better anniversary event. Imagine what Nintendo will do for Pokemon's 20th anniversary!
Mario 64 was actually the last time Nintendo actually launched a console with Mario. Gamecube had Luigi's Mansion (doesn't count as a Mario game) and the Wii had Link as it's launch mascot.

Re: Nintendo Confirms Its Holiday Hits in North America
So, I'm guessing Pokemon Black/White 2 are the last games Nintendo's making for the DS?

I can't see anyone wearing "Sonic brand" clothing. Just let Sonic die peacefully.

Re: Talking Point: The Pros and Cons of 3DS XL
Why would they add the second circle pad? How many games actually USE the circle pad pro? Three?

Re: Mad Dog McCree
Why would ANYONE even consider a game affiliated with the CD-i? They might as well release Hotel Mario, Wand of Gamelon, and the Faces of Evil games!

Re: E3 2012: Pre-E3 Nintendo Direct Round Up
The Wii-U is to the Wii what the SNES is to the NES. It's the the Super Wii!
Re: E3 2012: Your First Look at Super Mario Bros. on Wii U
I hope the overworld map has as many branches as Super Mario World. As a matter of fact, this game should be called "New Super Mario World".

Re: Feature: Launching a Console Without Mario
Mario 64 was actually the last time Nintendo actually launched a console with Mario. Gamecube had Luigi's Mansion (doesn't count as a Mario game) and the Wii had Link as it's launch mascot.
Re: Talking Point: What Games Are You Playing This Weekend?
I just had a thought:
Could we see Shulk as a Super Smash Bros character?
