Re: Some Club Nintendo Coin Values Will Change on 1st July

Seems fair to me. The values seems to have shifted from a "one-size-fits-all" approach to each system's games to a system based on the game's MSRP, rewarding those who purchase more expensive titles (like Wii Fit or Xenoblade Chronicles) who those who may exploit the system by loading up on cheap games whose price to coin ratio (that's what I'm calling it) is ridiculously high (Bird Mania 3D).

Re: Redesigned Wii U Tablet Controller Is Revealed

Keeping the Wii U branding is really dumb imo. I think part of the reason why the 3DS floundered at launch was because of its name. Average Joe consumers who don't follow the industry that closely thought it was a minor upgrade from the DS line (like a new DSi), so they decided to hold off on purchasing what they thought was a $250 upgrade and not a new console here to stay, and that hampered sales. The name better change at E3.
