I strongly dislike Will Wheaton (obnoxious SJW who's even against internet anonymity), but I'd never ditch a game because of one voice actor being a self-righteous jerk in his private life.
"Majora's Mask already approaching 0.5 million in U.S and Europe"
Err, it seems to be well over 0.5 million there already, with sales over 0.3 million in the US and the European numbers being over 0.2 million.
It's funny to think about how these hyper-sensitive, politically correct Western game journos are really indulging in ethnocentrism when whining about Japanese fanservice games.
The Vita is a joke, a port- and indie-portable at most. Keep losing those billions Sony, and hope that your apologists in the gaming media remain loyal.
I actually own Ace Combat: Assault Horizon Legacy and it's really good, I'll wait and see whether this game will have enough new content to justify a purchase.
I'll stick with my Virtual Console version, and Bravely Default and its sequel are probably the only SE games I'll be willing to pay full price for these next few years.
These crybabies should just stop whining and get Wii Us already, right now the console is cheaper and has more worthwhile exclusives than their precious PS4s and Xbones.
The way they handled Xenoblade was just shameful. This was a masterpiece that they not only should have localized immediately, but aggressively promoted, not treated like some cult game to give GameStop a monopoly on. Hopefully the great reception Xenoblade got worldwide will ensure that Monolith Softs X gets treated right. At least so far they've been giving X a fair bit of attention in their Nintendo Directs.
"We've had to share some relatively grisly UK Wii U sales news today,"
No you didn't, you made the choice to do so in order to get clicks. Own up to it. Like many of the other so-called Nintendo fansites, you often seem outright masochistic.
I'm playing A Link Between Worlds (Super Mario 3D World is actually sold out were I live), I've already finished the game once, but now I'm playing through it again on Hero Mode.
Shame on you for ignoring The Wonderful 101, while including Wii U Party and a late port. Such a high quality third party exclusive deserves way better..
Great to see that Kid Icarus: Uprising finally makes it to eShop, it's a fantastic game, still my favorite original 3DS game!
Also, I found the stand completely pointless, I have no problems playing the game without it (actually, I prefer playing it without that stupid stand).
Kinda sad in a way, I frankly find Nintendo Land much more enjoyable than NSMBU, and it certainly shows off the versatility and potential of the Gamepad way better than Mario...on the other hand, it's good to see the Wii U sales being boosted.
The Wii is pretty much the reason I got back into gaming, so it will always have a place in my heart. Xenoblade, Brawl, Skyward Sword and Mario Galaxy 1 & 2 were absolute masterpieces!

Crap like this is why I always use adblock on your site.
Re: Mighty No. 9 Features on Wii U and 3DS Versions are Outlined
Lack of Miiverse support is pathetic. The game as a whole looks really underwhelming and disappointing, definitely not wasting my money on this one.
Re: Mario Kart 8 Passes Five Million Sales and eShop Download Numbers Continue to Rise
The Majora's Mask 3D numbers really impress me - a non-Pokemon remake selling more than 2 million copies in less than 2 months is pretty amazing.
Re: Mighty No. 9 Confirmed for September Release, Along With Physical Retail Version
Looks really underwhelming actually, I'm giving this a miss.
Re: Analyst Thinks Nintendo Is Already Winding Down Wii U Ahead Of Nintendo NX Launch
STOP giving idiots like this attention, you're just creating a self-fulfilling prophesy in terms of scaring people away from investing in the Wii U.
Re: Swedish Newspaper Questions The European Release Of Senran Kagura 2: Deep Crimson
SJWs/Radical Feminists don't want to take our games away, huh?
Re: Chrono Trigger Turns 20, but is Ultimately Timeless
A masterpiece. I only got to play it when the DS version was released (meaning I had zero nostalgia for it) and the game still blew me away.

Re: Gone Home Console Versions Are "Not Actively in Development Any Longer"
Critically acclaimed, sure, but you might want to ask whether those critics have any credibility:

Re: Video: YouTube's Gaming Historian Takes Offense At One Element Of Mario's Game Boy Past
I find hypersensitive, politically correct whining a lot more "problematic" than anything in those games.
Re: Poll: Which is the Best Super Smash Bros. Game?
My ranking:
1) Smash Wii U
2) Brawl
3) Smash 3DS
4) Melee
5) Smash 64
Re: Sony: PS Vita Is Better Than 3DS And The Wii Brand Is A "Shadow Of Its Former Self"
The Vita is a joke, a port- and indie-portable at most. Keep losing those billions Sony, and hope that your apologists in the gaming media remain loyal.
Re: The Nintendo Wii U Is Better Value For Money Than Xbox One Or PS4, Says Reggie
Reggie is obviously right here, too bad the corrupt gaming media establishment is basically trying to drive Nintendo out of the console business.

I actually own Ace Combat: Assault Horizon Legacy and it's really good, I'll wait and see whether this game will have enough new content to justify a purchase.
Re: Final Fantasy VI On Android Is Pricey and Looks Rather Peculiar
It looks hideous.
I'll stick with my Virtual Console version, and Bravely Default and its sequel are probably the only SE games I'll be willing to pay full price for these next few years.

Re: Feature: The Biggest Wii U Games of 2014
X looks absolutely amazing, definitely my most eagerly anticipated Wii U game!
Re: Game of the Year: Nintendo Life Readers' Awards 2013
Not a fan of the lack of Wonderful 101, but I'm at least happy Bravely Default got the recognition it deserves.
Re: Game of the Year: Nintendo Life's Staff Awards 2013
Very disappointing to see you ignore The Wonderful 101, that game was awesome and criminally overlooked.
Re: Feature: 12 Days of Christmas - Super Mario 3D World Captures Hearts
It really is a fantastic game, and completely outclasses Super Mario 3D Land.

Re: Industry Analyst Predicts Disappointing Outcome For Wii U Lifetime Sales
Some idiot says something stupid we've heard a hundred times before, yeah, totally newsworthy.
Re: Majora's Mask Appears Again, This Time as a New Smash Bros. Assist Trophy
Just make Majora's Mask 3D already, it's a complete no-brainer. In the long run, nobody likes a tease.

Re: Pokémon X & Y Bundles Land In North America Ahead Of The Holiday Season
Doesn't really seem worth it for an inferior version of the system that doesn't even come with a physical copy of the game...
Re: Monster Hunter 4 Has Shipped Over Four Million Units in Japan
Impressive, and it hasn't even gotten the holiday boost yet. At this pace, its lifetime skipments should easily exceed 5 million units in Japan.
Re: The Financial Post Thinks Wii U And 3DS Could Be The "Best Bets" This Christmas
"There's a lot of Nintendo-related doom and gloom floating around at the moment — some of which we feel it is our duty to report"
Yeah, because God forbid Nintendo fans go a day without hearing about how the Wii U is DOOOOMED!!
I feel it's my duty to keep Adblock enabled as long as this site acts like it has a duty to post crap like that.
Re: Former Sony Developer Feels The Wii U "Won't See Another Christmas"
Another Nintendo-bashing article you "had to" post, right? Pathetic.

Re: Review: Jett Rocket II - The Wrath of Taikai (3DS eShop)
7/10 sounds about right, it's a good eShop platformer, but hardly an amazing, original experience.
Re: Xenoblade Studio Monolith Soft Was Involved With Zelda: A Link Between Worlds
Those guys are amazing, X is actually my most eagerly anticipated game at the moment.
Re: Phoenix Wright: Ace Attorney - Dual Destinies DLC Priced and Dated
I'll definitely be downloading it when it arrives.
Re: Jett Rocket II: The Wrath of Taikai Available Now on the 3DS eShop
Looks great, I'll probably download it at some later point.
Re: System Update Will Allow You To Share eShop Balances Across Wii U And 3DS
But are your digital purchases now tied to the account, as opposed to the console? Because that's what people have really been waiting for.
Re: Nintendo Download: 7th November (North America)
Great to see that Kid Icarus: Uprising finally makes it to eShop, it's a fantastic game, still my favorite original 3DS game!

Re: Review: Phoenix Wright: Ace Attorney - Dual Destinies (3DS eShop)
Sound great, I downloaded the game yesterday!
Re: Readers Of EDGE Consider Ocarina Of Time And Mario 64 To Be The Best Games Of The Last 20 Years
Can't argue with Ocarina of Time at 1#, and I'm glad Majora's Mask made it on the list as well. Those two are my favorite games of all time!
That said, Xenoblade definitely would have deserved a top 10 spot as well.
Re: Nintendo Japan Confirms an End to Wii Production

Re: Rayman Legends And Splinter Cell Blacklist Both Sold Less Than Expected, Says Ubisoft

Re: Review: AiRace Speed (3DS eShop)
Really fun game, bought it last week and I'm glad I did. Great game if you like time trials and futuristic racers.
