Blue_Blur

Got a blue 3DS the year it came out on my b-day. Loved it so much, that a couple years later, I upgraded to the 3DS XL (blue), and got an awesome Sonic case for it as well on my b-day. Glad to see the system still doing so well after all this time, and it's only getting stronger! (Badge arcade, 3DS themes, etc.) I've no interest in getting a "New" 3DS, since I don't use the 3D , but glad to see others enjoying it. So many great games on the 3DS; I've played hours of Mario Kart, Sonic, Animal Crossing, M&L... so many great memories! Happy 5th, 3DS!

I'll wait for the free download, but can't wait to try it! Looks really fun!

@Ogbert: Pretty sure April 28th is when you can download it without a code.

Sonic Advance 3, Sonic Battle, Mario Vs. Donkey Kong, and the Spyro GBA games are my favorites. I haven't played all the games listed in the article, but I choose Superstsar Saga, even though I've only played it on my Wii U.

That's awesome!

I would love to see a bucket that resembles a Slosher. Would actually consider buying that - might be useful as a real bucket!

I really hope this is fake!!!

I won't be downloading anything, but I will be getting Mario & Sonic tomorrow. Can't wait!

After looking at the Splattershot on Play-Aisa, I scrolled down and noticed a Judd plush... MUST HAVE! XD

Maybe someday they'll make a Slosher too... who knows, it might actually be useful as a bucket.

Luckily, none of my levels have been deleted. I'll admit that quite a few of my levels have low percentage rates, or aren't very popular, but I try to make them all fair. It's too bad that new levels are getting deleted and don't have a chance to earn stars... not fair at all! All levels deserve a chance to earn stars, (unless they're troll levels, imo). Well-made Mario levels take a long time to make, and people should get their level uploaded for at least a little while. Less than a week is definitely too short, let alone a couple of hours!

R.I.P. Mr. Medalle. I'm glad his daughter survived.

Nintendo is really pushing digital purchases... but I'm staying physical! Like others have said, I like physical because of the disc, box, and sometimes the bonuses that come with it. Club Nintendo might have not had the best rewards, but at least we got points/coins for every purchase! Hopefully physical games will count, but it's not looking like they will be. As of now, I'm disappointed with this new account system, but hopefully that'll change when more info about it is released.

I don't like snow, and I've never built a snowman, so... sandcastles for me!

I'm remaining optimistic, but I do wish the battle system was more "generic" like TTYD. I'm not a fan of looking back and forth between the TV and Gamepad, so I'm not liking the idea of a deck of cards. With the battle system set up like this, it also probably means no off TV play. That doesn't bother me much at all, but I know that's a big concern to some people.

I know Sticker Star wasn't that great, but I at least liked how it was semi-creative with all the different stickers. To me, Color Splash is Splatoon + De Blob. Even saving all the Toads from the houses is clearly De Blob! And Splatoon comes in with all the paint splashing everywhere. I usually expect Paper Mario games to be quite creative, but Color Splash isn't looking like it will be.

Besides those points though, I'm still excited for this game. Will it be TTYD? Of course not, but hey, it'll probably be better than Sticker Star!

Hoverboards! I love Sonic Riders!

Glad the United Kingdom is finally getting this update! The badge arcade is much more fun with free plays!

I'll try it, but probably won't use it much. At least I got the pre-register bonus for My Nintendo Account. Hopefully this will release worldwide on the same day.

Cute! I like Bulbasaur the most!

"...the right hand is sensed while the left hand holds the device."

Ah, the joys of being left-handed... hopefully it'll be able to sense the left hand too...

Actually, I hope this never becomes a thing! It would make things so much simpler!

After seeing this list, I realize that most of my favorite Mario games are spin-offs! XD

I chose:
1)Mario & Sonic - Mario and Sonic are my favorite series; It only makes sense!
2)Mario Kart - LOVE it so much!
3)M & L series - always a funny and enjoyable adventure.
Honorable mentions to Paper Mario, Mario Party, and the Mario Sports games.

Can't wait to see what it is! Hoping for something modern Sonic related.

Great video!
LOL at Sonic the Squidhog! XD

There's a website? lol XD

Sad to see this feature go, but at least it still works inside the game; at least I can still watch my awesome racing moments!

I wish Splatoon had to option of being able to save and re-watch matches like MKTV... re-watching those epic matches would be awesome! No website needed, though.

The direct wasn't bad at all... I thought it was really good, actually! I got what I wanted; Rio and Splatoon updates! I'm also interested in Paper Mario Color Splash, so I'll keep an eye on that as well. The Mini Mario and Friends amiibo challenge looks fun too! Also super glad that we're getting Rhythm Heaven!

Super cute!

Day one buy for me! Not sure if the 3DS limits which events characters can compete in like in the 3DS version of London... I hope not! Same goes for the Wii U version, but that version is much more likely to have all characters able to compete in everything.

I really want to see Shadow do Rhythmic Gymnastics in both games! XD

Glad to see the game got a great score! Twilight Princess is my favorite Zelda game, but I already have it on the Wii. I'm occupied with other games right now, so I wont' be getting this game for a while. I'll probably pick it up eventually, when the first price drop happens. To everyone who is getting it day one though, enjoy it!

It's sad to see just how much the 3DS version really limited the Wii U version. Especially with the Ice Climbers and various stages. I don't mind having a 3DS version available, but I wish they made the Wii U version different than the 3DS version, by letting the Wii U version go beyond the 3DS's capabilities. In my opinion, if the Wii U is capable of having a lot more power than the 3DS, then Wii U games should be allowed to use that extra power. And with the Wii U version getting Smash Tour instead of Smash Run, I think the Wii U version deserves an extra stage or something to make up for the loss.

Sweet, SoulSilver is my favorite Pokemon game! Caught my first shiny in SoulSilver, too.

@maukenboost: Agreed! I wonder why they got rid of them in the first place... no reason to remove them! If you have to watch the same intro into a Pokemon battle thousands of times, might as well make it a bit more interesting to watch with ball capsules.

My first Pokemon game was Emerald, but I was quite young when me and my brother played it, so I don't remember much about it at all.

SoulSilver remains my favorite for two reasons: I loved how your Pokemon followed behind you, and the ball capsules.

The other two I voted for were Black 2 and Alpha Sapphire.

Nice to see Mario & Sonic Rio doing quite well. Cant wait to get my copy! I also can't believe Splatoon is still in 11th! That's awesome!

@TheHeroOfTime333: Unleashed is my favorite game ever, so you're not alone! The night stages were really fun!

Whether Fire and Ice is coming soon or not, I'm glad they're taking their time with it. I'm getting it, and hopefully it will be just as good, if not better, than Shattered Crystal. I'm also super excited for Rio!

Congrats Team Blue! We did amazing! I'm happy Marie finally won a Splatfest in North America, even though I like Callie better.

Blue! I am Blue_Blur after all!

Guess I'm the only one who really liked Spirit Tracks! XD

1)Twilight Princess
2)Spirit Tracks
3)Ocarina of Time

Registered with no trouble. Thanks for the helpful guide!

That's awesome! XD

Go Luigi!

I have the 3DS XL with a Sonic case, so I'm content!

I love competitive games, like Splatoon, Mario Kart, Smash, etc., and I mostly focus on the online features in all of them. They're my favorite type of game! I'm not a fan of strategy games, though. So for being 17, I guess I'm above the average for liking competitive gaming, and below the average for liking strategy games.

I'm loving all the new playable characters; can't wait for this game!

LOVE the new design! Awesome how we get to score games now, too.

Yes! Never played Risky's Revenge, only Pirate's Curse, but loved it. Will definitely get this!

Haha! That's awesome! XD

Awesome! If this turns out to be true, hopefully the two amiibos will have Slosher and Splatling challenges. A new mini-game is awesome, too, but Squid Beats will probably remain my favorite. It's so much fun!

Yay! I love Professor E. Gadd!

I hope they add more DLC! A Callie and Marie amiibo would be awesome, but I'd also like to see an amiibo for Judd and maybe the shopkeepers. Go Splatoon!

Luigi's Mansion, Animal Crossing, and Mario Kart. Wouldn't mind a sequel to Splatoon either.

Already have Shantae, and that's the only game that interests me. If you're thinking about getting Shantae, you should! It's a fantastic game!

Ninjas for sure!

I hope this is true! As much as I loved reading about Luigi's Adventures in the TTYD, I would love it if he could travel with Mario!
