Personally I hate the Circle Pad Pro's aesthetic look, but it's so comfortable to hold ad functions extremely well in Resident Evil Revelations. I would have preferred one built into the console itself obviously, but the CCP really does do a great job!
Boxart is meh. Otherwise I'm really excited for this game. Might wait for some reviews though, it does seem to be causing some split decisions between the reviewers. Hope it turns out good though.
Excited for all except the bottom 3, plus you forgot KHDDD although I bet loads of people have probably already said that! Can't wait for 2012, tons of great games and the launch of the Wii U! I'm gonna need some money...
I'm really happy Xenoblade got second despite the fact that the Americans are yet to pay it. In my opinion it pretty much matches Skyward Sword overall, and is well deserving of it's 2nd place. Also, I was surprised that Super Mario 3D Land got 3DS game of the year. I thought it would be MK7.
Super Circuit is way better than this. The turning is just plain awful and the course design is unbelievably boring, the only difference between them being one is a slightly duller/bolder shade of grey than the other. I really thought this game was awful, the worst Ambassador game. Then again, I hated F-Zero GX for Gamecube, so maybe there's just something inside me that has an extreme hate for FZero in general.
I want Mighty Switch Force, but I'm staying away to save up for Vita. God, I'm finding avoiding MSF a massive difficulty, I have no idea how I'll cope when Resident Evil Revelations launches...
Great! The 3DS is really vastly improved from launch now! Great Software, E-Shop, Messaging System, 3D Video Recording, Improved Streetpass Plaza... The 3DS should have been like this from launch, and now it's undoubtedly a far improved system to what it was on March 25th!
Good. Get it out Late 2011, in time for Christmas and with some very good early support. Preferably a Mario or Zelda title at launch. Nintendo have to learn from the mistakes of the 3DS, they can't do that again. In the meantime, I can play my 3DS and Vita!
Awesome Review! I've had this since Thursday and it's a brilliant game! In the 3rd world and have played about 3 hours. The level design is really good and really gets you thinking. The difficulty level is just right, and the ability to create your own levels is great! It's obvious how good this is due to the fact that I actually stopped playing Skyward Sword and MK7 to play this instead!
I love the game, and have had it since launch. Just a shame that I've only played about 9 hours, due to the fact that Skyward Sword and MK7 are taking up most of my time. This and Cave Story 3D will be my two games to finish during the 2 and a half week Christmas Holiday!
Time might not be on his side, but I expect he's still got a good five - ten years with Nintendo. He's only 59, which isn't that much considering the average Japanese Man dies at about 85.
I've added all 3 codes, but at the moment I'm pretty awful! Can't wait to have some great races! My name is Thomas, and I'm currently third on the all items leaderboard!
With Mario Kart 7 on the way, 3DS is sure to surpass the original DS sales. Plus, Skyward Sword has gave the Wii a welcome boost near it's end. Well done Nintendo!

Re: Review: 3D Classics: Kid Icarus (3DSWare)
If only my code had came from Club Nintendo. And if only they'd respond to my Customer services messages rather than ignoring them as usual.
Re: Nintendo Working On New Zelda Game
Just make sure it's a proper Zelda, not PH or ST. Then I'll be happy!
Re: Rayman Origins 3DS Grabs Europe by the Globox on 16th March
Already bought the Wii verison, so I almost definitely won't be buying this, but nice to know Ubi are supporting 3DS with such a great game!
Re: Millions of Wii Games Pirated in 2011
Xenoblade!!! That game is epic, 10 hours in and its one of my favourite games of all time! ... Oh wait, it got pirated. Damn you Pirates!

Re: 3DS Hits 4 Million Console Sales in United States
Great News! Hopeing for some RPG's in the new year!
Re: Review: Nintendo Letter Box (3DSWare)
I would give it an 8, but good review! Definitely improves the 3DS in terms of communication methods in my opinion!
Re: Happy New Year from Nintendo Life!
Happy New Year! Time to eat some bacon.

Yay, I entered! Hope that I win. Just wondering, couldn't people just create duplicate accounts and enter several times?

Re: Review: Mighty Switch Force (3DSWare)
Hmmmm, I may pick this up later today then, even know I didn't like the look of the game much originally.
Re: 3DS to Hit 4 Million Sold in Japan Sooner Than Expected
Nice going! I'm always checking VGChartz for sales updates. Can't wait to see how sales go this week!
Re: Nintendo and Namco Team Up to Bring One Piece to Europe
Cool! May well pick this up too! Next year is definitely starting strongly, with Resi, Tekken and this all releasing on each subsequent week.
Re: Tekken 3D Prime Edition Punches Europe on 17th February
This may well be a launch day buy. The fact that it runs at 60FPS whilst in 3D and has a movie included on the cartridge are pretty amazing features.

Re: Nintendo Has These Wii Games Planned for Early 2012
So, the Wii lives until Q2, where Pandora's Tower will end the run. Then we'll just have to wait for Wii U

Re: Nintendo Takes Home Four Awards at Spike VGAs
@Aviator ? It won Best Wii Game, Best Motion Game, and the Video Game Hall of Fame Award. That's 3, right?
Re: Nintendo Takes Home Four Awards at Spike VGAs
So, Skyward Sword ruled the awards then.
Re: Miyamoto: "Eventually Nintendo Must Survive Without Me"
Time might not be on his side, but I expect he's still got a good five - ten years with Nintendo. He's only 59, which isn't that much considering the average Japanese Man dies at about 85.
Re: Japan Buys Half a Million Copies of Super Mario 3D Land
I wonder what MK7 sales will be like...

Re: UK Retail Reports Red 3DS Reaching Really Rare Rating
I'm not surprised! 967,268 3DS Consoles sold last week alone according to VGChartz.
Re: Join the Official Nintendo Life Mario Kart 7 Communities
I've added all 3 codes, but at the moment I'm pretty awful! Can't wait to have some great races! My name is Thomas, and I'm currently third on the all items leaderboard!
Re: 3DS Beats First Year DS Sales in Just 8 Months
Great to see the 3DS Sales picking up steam, and with Christmas coming up I can't wait to see the full 12 month sales figures for 3DS!
Re: Circle Pad Pro Hits Europe in January 2012
Looks like I'll be getting this bundle. The only bad thing is that I'll have to get rid off my Nyko Power Pak. Goodbye 10 hour gaming sessions.
Re: Mario and Skyward Sword Set Series Sales Records
With Mario Kart 7 on the way, 3DS is sure to surpass the original DS sales. Plus, Skyward Sword has gave the Wii a welcome boost near it's end. Well done Nintendo!
Re: Review: Mario Kart 7 (3DS)
Personally I'd give it a 10, but great review!
Re: Review: Sonic Generations (3DS)
I'll get it at Christmas. Until then I have SM3DL, Skyward Sword, Tales of The Abyss and Mario Kart 7 to keep me entertained!
Re: Nano Assault Delayed Until December 5th
I hope this gets mentioned for UK release soon enough.
