Meh..... I've played the first two (yes, there is a first) on the PC.... And they were good games, but get somewhat repetitive near the end..... As a note to all Nintendo gamers (like my self) on the fence about this game, approach with caution. There isn't really any great platforming elements, and the puzzles, while challenging, are often frustrating and somewhat gimmicky. Still fun games, just not great.
Being a somewhat experience game programmer, it is hard enough with a full keyboard in front of you. Yes, some people will make use of this, but at the end of the day, they could be doing so much more in a more capable compiler....
Xenoblade, Skyrim, Final Fantasy 1, Final Fantasy Tactics Advanced, Portal 2, Civilization V, Chrono Trigger..... Yeah, pretty busy right now. Dang mothers day gotta get in the way though! Lol (just kidding of course)
I am by no means tired of Mario. Do I think that it would be nice to see Link and Samus getting the spotlight a little more often.... Of course. But at the end of the day, nothing sells quite like a Mario game....
This game was by no means bad, but it felt much more bland to me than Frontier. Farming isn't nearly as fun and combat isn't much better..... There are cooler dungeons though, so I guess you Europeans have that to look forward to if this ever goes your way (which it absolutely should).
The 3DS is going to sell 5 Billion units world wide. No not really, but sales still have a long way to go in the Video Game industry before they really become unbeatable.
Okay people, stop complaining about NOA. I would like to see you guys run such a giant company that has to deal with so many issues and still try to go out of their way just to provide us with stuff that we don't really need, just to keep us from going online and complaining about how we don't get this or that.
Wow. Great day to be a Wii owner. Last story and Xenoblade coming to US, Skyward Sword still on the horizon, and conduit 2 two weeks away! And this! Yahoooooooooo!
Hopefully this won't be like goldeneye. A lot of game modes that are only available online. I wish Activision would have put more effort into local multiplayer, as that is where the original game excelled.
twilights look was good, but it made it to realistic. It felt to reel. This looks good. Its like a totem in inception. it lets me know it isnt real life.

Re: Can't Afford a Holiday Trip? Go Vacation for Wii May Be the Answer
Horse Riding? Ok, I am getting it (I hate horses in real life, but most games with them in them are really fun).
Re: Review: BIT.TRIP COMPLETE (Wii)
Just got this. Get it over the 3DS version. This has so much more. This game is AMAZING!
Re: Talking Point: Nintendo Makes Bold Move with the 3DS

Re: North America, These eShop Games Await You Next Week
I hope I can find a wi fi hotspot so I can get the pokedex...
Re: 3DS Users Will Soon Have 25,000 Hotspots to Connect To
Thank god! My 3DS will be useless if I can't use the eshop (I live in the middle of a forest so their isn't much I can do for myself.)
Re: Nintendo Drops Wii to $149.99 and Launches Budget Games
I haven't played Animal Crossing yet, so I will probably pick that up, along with TP. I have been dying to play that again forever.
Re: Review: Tiger Woods PGA Tour 12: The Masters (Wii)
I kinda wish this wasn't 50 bucks. Nock this down to 40 and I am all in.
Re: Review: Conduit 2 (Wii)
If you judge this game only on it's story, sure, its a 5. But look farther into multiplayer, it is an 8.
Re: Talking Point: What You Want in a New Nintendo Home Console
Well, as much as I would like to see a mega awesome super console, I have a feeling it would cost somewhere in the 4 to 5 hundreds.

Re: Launching This Spring is Nintendo's Secretive Title, Pandora's Tower
And what is with the last story localization announcements? I have searched every gaming website i know of and nothing has come up?
Re: Launching This Spring is Nintendo's Secretive Title, Pandora's Tower
funny to hear people on other web sites debating whether this is a girl or not. Nintendo Life has the best images and the best editors.
Re: Sonic Colours Soundtrack Racing to iTunes
30 $? Didn't one of the first songs seem like a spin off of dancing with yourself?

Re: Launching This Spring is Nintendo's Secretive Title, Pandora's Tower
This seams like it might follow the path of Lost in Shadows. Not enough advertisement until the last minute, and the game not selling that well.
