Was excited for these games, but splitting them into 2 games for NA put a sour taste in my mouth and now I don't really feel like playing them. Maybe if I can find them cheaper some day.
I like the idea of a Shovel Knight Amiibo. Wouldn't mind seeing a Shield Knight amiibo, or a bad guy one from the game someday. Other people want Shantae, I'm not really interested in the series but she would make a decent amiibo. I can't think of very many indie titles that would have characters that would make a good amiibo though. I'd rather see them dig out some other known characters. Arthur from Ghosts and Goblins would be great for Smash and as an Amiibo. Geno would be a big seller I think.
I would love to play Kirby's Return to Dreamland, want to play it with my kids. I recently looked it up online and prices are surprisingly high for it.
@sWiTcHeRoO Why exactly doesn't K.Rool deserve to be in Smash? He clearly has a fan base. Was the lead antagonist for many DK games. Just cause you don't like him?
Well its 6:04 EST time, on Saturday may 16th, sitting in the Splatoon demo waiting for it to start. That will teach me to read the entire article. Now my kids are pissed cause they didn't get to watch me play again.
Was a lot of fun. I only got disconnected once during the second play session. I think this game is better without voice chat, I hope it stays that way.
Nintendo needs to come up with a way to make these games available on all future platforms. I feel like their VC goal should be to have every possible retro title available on as many of their platforms as possible.
@Randomname19 I've been waiting for Nintendo Kart for a while now. Take what they did with Smash Bros and do it in a Karting game. Some 3rd party support too. Megaman and Wily, Pacman and the ghosts, as 1 character with 4 color options like Yoshi and Shyguy. There is just so much they could do with Nintendo Kart. It would also be a good time to bring back character specific special items. Link could get a Hookshot, which when used on a person in front of him, propels him right behind that racer.
Nintendo could always give us the choice. Pick a file, choose your gender, type in your name. Its not like Nintendo uses CGI cutscenes for Zelda games anyways. Just switch the character models and voices. Would not be hard to add in 10 extra seconds of voice for a female link to grunt when she swings a sword and scream when she's falling.
I think its funny that Bowser came up with this huge plan to capture Peach and take over the Mushroom Kingdom, and 7 minutes after she was captured she was saved. I almost feel bad for the King of Koopas.
Picked this up at the Xbone midnight launch, The Hot-Air Hi-jinx mode is definitely the way to go when playing with friends. I've enjoyed most of the mini-games so far. There's usually a couple in these games I don't like, but for this installment I haven't had that problem so far.
10) Faxanadu 9) Trog 8) Super Mario Bros.2 (Doki Doki Panic) 7) Rad Racer 6) Super Mario Bros 3 5) Earthbound Zero (Mother 1) 4) Final Fantasy 3) Zelda II: the Adventures of Link 2) The Legend of Zelda 1) Final Fantasy III

Looking forward to My Nintendo being released, not looking forward to having to play Miitomo for Plat Points.
Re: Chromophore: The Two Brothers Faces Another Delay
I have been waiting for this game to hit the Wii U for a couple years now.

Reminds me of Rad Racer.

@Gridatttack Your right, 32GB is just awful. It's why I've stuck with physical.
Re: Here's Why SNES VC Games Can Only be Played on a New 3DS
If 3DS owners can't have SNES games, then neither should New 3DS owners.
Re: Feature: What We Expect from Nintendo Direct - 3rd March
SNES VC better not get released only for New 3DS.
Re: Review: Front Mission (SNES)
@TheWPCTraveler I loved Front Mission 3 on PS1, even bought it again to play on my Vita.
Re: Review: Front Mission (SNES)
@vitalemrecords all of those, plus if your in North America add Terranigma to that list.
Re: Review: Front Mission (SNES)
You guys are either getting paid by RetroN or subtly promoting the pirating of games.

Re: Site News: Welcome To The Brand New Nintendo Life!
Not liking it at all. Sure its good for phones, but I don't have one of those and it looks terrible on my Desktop.

Re: Feature: Time to Vote for Your Nintendo Life Game of the Year Awards 2015
I probably would have voted for XCX has I played it already. But I have to wait for X-Mas, so Mario Maker gets my vote.
Re: Talking Point: Super Mario Maker's Update Continues Nintendo's Focus on Major Games as Services
I hope the next Mario Kart gets turned into Nintendo Kart, if they launched it near the beginning of the NX they could support it with DLC for years.
Re: Best Buy Opens Pre-Orders for Falco's amiibo Release in North America
I wish they wouldn't put North America in the title, when its US only. Canada's amiibo situation is always different.
Re: Chromophore: The Two Brothers is Still Heading to Wii U, Developer Explains Delay
Been waiting a very long time for this, hope it actually gets released this time.
Re: Mario History: Super Mario Galaxy 2 - 2010
I personally think this is the greatest Mario platformer ever made.
Re: Nintendo Download: 3rd September (North America)
No Zero Mission, no StarTropics. Nothing to see here.
Re: Nintendo Download: 3rd September (Europe)
StarTropics 1 and 2! If only I wasn't stuck in North America.

Re: New Yoshi's Woolly World Video Shows Off Fluffy Cuteness and Confirms Splatoon amiibo Support
@pherret022 As much as I want this game too being in NA, I have a hard time complaining since Europe gets screwed on release dates so often.

Re: Weirdness: Someone's Made a Super Mario 64 HD Demo in Unity
Would love an HD remake of Mario 64 on the Wii U, or even a sequel. I just loved the castle hub and all its cool secrets. So great.
Re: Game Jam Tasks Developers With Creating A Zelda Title Starring A Female Link
Nintendo could always give us the choice. Pick a file, choose your gender, type in your name. Its not like Nintendo uses CGI cutscenes for Zelda games anyways.
Just switch the character models and voices. Would not be hard to add in 10 extra seconds of voice for a female link to grunt when she swings a sword and scream when she's falling.
Re: Here’s Why Axiom Verge is Not Initially Coming to Wii U
Looking forward to trying this on PS4 or Vita.
Re: Speedrunner Conquers Super Mario 64 in World Record Time, With No Stars
