So nintendo isn't manipulating stock to drive up demand, they are just incompetent. That's much better! I can tell you with absolutely no market research that my local target was going to sell more than 3 of them, which is all they got.
"How many should we send to each store?" idk like 6? Maybe 12? "Sure sounds good that way we can keep them stocked throughout the season because no way is more than 3 people gonna want this thing. "
I'm okay paying $10 for this I just don't think most people would. $0.99 would be better but maybe there is a lot of content. If it's not just procedural generation that could make it worth it to me.
Launching Switch without Zelda will hurt momentum of the system I think. On the other hand they are probably planning on sending 3 Switches to every store so I won't be able to get one any way.
Since they have this will we ever see another DS/3DS style game again? Will Nintendo release a successor to the 3DS? Some kind of clamshell portable device?
So it's a puzzle game but there is still turn based enemy encounters without any point due to the lack of an RPG leveling system. I've yet to be convinced this game won't be as bad as sticker star.
@CrazedCavalier if Europe ends up getting both on one cart for half the price you can bet its half a game. Also how do you know each set of unique assets that is left isn't half of what you typically be on a fire emblem cart? Well have to wait to see how this plays out but I plain don't like the idea of having two separate carts.
Seems like an insult to charge $50 for this. I'd rather buy tennis open at least it had some neat minigames. Or better year just play power tennis on gamecube.
Funny how a game that always looked bad ended up being bad. Wish enough would have just let NOA drop it like they wanted to. Better Fatal Frame makes it to retail than this steaming pile.
This game should have been canceled and Fatal Frame should be AT LEAST pre-order only or an online retailer exclusive. Really sad to me they don't see the value in release it as a disc based game. 16GB and you don't think it's suited for a disc? C'mon nintendo.
The amount of spelling errors on the kickstarter page are hilarious. This is like some kind of project from a 14 year old kid not a professional dev studio. Glad it's canceled.
Disappointed on a significant level. What they did to Metroid is something I won't quite get over. Until they announce an actual Metroid game with Samus.
@TruenoGT Yeah he was extremely rude and just made himself look like a jerk. Obviously Reggie was never going to be pro level and he's not a "fraud" because he isn't an expert at playing smash. It's was a fun idea but people like that (hungrybox) don't deserve that kind of opportunity.

Re: Poll: Did the 3DS Nintendo Direct Boost Your Hype for the Portable's Line-Up?
Pikmin 3DS is a great idea so that was nice to see. Hopefully we also are getting Pikmin 4 on NX at launch.
Re: Nintendo Producer Highlights How Paper Mario: Color Splash Improves on Sticker Star
Sounds terrible, even worse is that it's $60. Will wait to see reviews on this one.
Re: Poll: Nintendo Has Laid Out Its Legend of Zelda E3 Plans - Are They Enough?
What are they gonna do show us 12 hours of the game? Bad idea.

Re: Target Reservation Cards Re-Affirm Fire Emblem Fates as a Dual Release for North America
@SyFyTy Can you explain when both stories aren't on the same cart for $40 or even $50 without saying "Nintendo is greedy"
Re: Beenox Won't Be Working on Spider-Man Games Anymore
@Einherjar Yes I don't think he knows what games Platinum develops.

Re: Target Reservation Cards Re-Affirm Fire Emblem Fates as a Dual Release for North America
They should charge for $20 each one because it's only half a game. $25 is the highest I'd accept.

I'm getting the feeling that there is no significant single player modes. Hope I'm wrong.

Well..I really want the amiibo. I'll keep my pre-order just out of love for the gamecube game. I owe chibi robo that much.
Re: Super Meat Boy May Be Coming to the Wii U
Now that games can be larger than 40MB I'd say get it on the eShop

Didn't want to play this game anyway so I'm not that disappointed but it's still shitty to change gears like this.
