This might be the ONLY reason I'm going to buy The Wonderful 101 in between the releases of Kingdom Hearts HD and GTA V is so that I support Platinum Games and there contribution to nintendo.
Ya see its audiences like this that Nintendo strives to please. Now if Nintendo had followed all the other gaming trends this would have never happened and all those disabled gamers benefiting from one armed gameplay, that wouldn't have happened either. Or what about that near sighted guy that finally got to see in 3 dimensions because of the 3DS. If you say Nintendo is a bad company, your lying to yourself.
I think it's kinda cute, I can see that there is a need for a device like this in the market. The ever so dying handheld industry needs to increase it's reach to everyone. Plus there's no longer an excuse for not having a "3DS" as people who didn't want to spend all that money and only want to play a few games could just get a 2DS instead.
Ooooo I like the planes stage. Speaking of which making a weekly screenshot feature was already done by IGN since the beginning. Get with the times mayne put together every screenshot before this week in another feature.
I've been looking forward to this game for a while, the summers almost over and they don't have a release date yet? Whack! We need more games like these out on the market!
I think the borders are pretty cool. It gives the game a cel-shaded look not unlike the first Sly Cooper game, also it give a unique, distinct style over it's big Wii U brother.
Nintendo needs its own exclusive ports. They also need to have multiple games ported. With PS3 you could buy the original Ratchet & Clank Trilogy for $20, same with Jak & Daxter and I'm pretty sure Sly Cooper as well. That's ALOT of bang for your buck. Nintendo can't just release one Gamecube title and call it a game they need multiple HD remakes while other companies need exclusive remakes that take advantage of the Gamepad.
Will Gamestop do this? Because I'll buy a starter pack and nothing more. I don't like gambling and as much as I want to take my chance with these(there $4 in the US) it's still ultimately a gamble. Maybe we'll be able to pick them eventually on Ebay and such.
I think it's time to go all digital. forever. That way we'll never have this problem. By now after all these years a digital license for Metroid Prime Trilogy would cost about $20 maybe even $30 at the most!
I refuse to buy anything off of iTunes if it was a CD it would have been a cool collectors item that I could have uploaded to iTunes. But if they put out more OST's I might have to give in. They iTunes for the older Mario music.
Oh and of course America's release date is (2013) like seriously they need to stop releasing games in Europe way before North America there's absolutely no reason to other than to have people from that continent think that they're finally getting "revenge" on America. Seriously just because we've had drastic release schedules in the past doesn't mean that they should switch it up. Just make it equal so its fair to everyone.
I think thats a pretty cool feature. You have to remember old school games are pretty rough. Wouldn't want to turn off a new audience for an old classic. Plus it adds replayability as well, you can easily do speed runs of the game in this mode.
Thanks a lot NoA I got excited for a second thinking that I would play the demo of a game that's been pushed back by 3 weeks despite releasing a similar version in other regions of the planet. Looks like I was wrong again.
I think they really messed up on MegaAmpharos, I mean it had potential to have a cool looking evolution and be an Electric/Light type Pokemon in a future generation and they randomly make it Electric/Dragon with a powdered wig? I mean c'mon I hope these "Mega" evolutions aren't going to be banned or usurp normal evolution. I sure as hell don't hope they "Mega" Pokemon overshadow the new Pokemon in the meta game and count as the 50 "new" ones we were supposedly getting. But hey if Pokemon generations become a yearly thing or even bi-yearly this could be a good thing.
I wanna get Duck Tales but at a $15 price tag should download it now or wait for a discount? I literally have soooo many other games to play that I feel like its foolish for me to download more.
First Turok was a classic the tone of the game and everything about it is just so primitive(no pun intended) that it should go down in gaming history as one of the first console FPS, obviously Goldeneye took the shine out of this game but at least it had pretty cool concept. The water areas were pretty cool too you swam and the screen shook all while a fitting tune was playing that's stuck in my head all to well. Deserves at least a 7 maybe an 8 in my book. Needed more Dinosaurs though so much potential with all the different kinds there are.
Had to work a 16 hour shift and I couldn't pick it up yesterday but I'm stoked for picking it up later on today. I wonder if I should stay up all night in anticipation ^_^
I honestly hope we get something better than that. I liked the figurines for Pokemon Heart Gold and Soul Silver but I pre-ordered mine and still didn't get one whereas my friends mom just bought him one and they gave one away to her. I hope they make the system easier as well as have some kick-donkey Xerneas and Yveltal figures.
Well no problem I mean at least we get special controls like in Arkham City(which I have yet to play) so looks like I'll be waiting on this one to be used and cheap before buying. No money to the greedy publisher who don't think its worth it to give a kickdonkey multiplayer mode to the Wii U which is just what the Wii U needs to jumpstart its online multiplayer popularity.
Ahhh great so now those people complaining about no new content get there end of the bargain. Due to how long a single play through could be Ima have to play the Master Quest first.
@SpinelessOyster Sudowoodo is a rock type and these appear to be grass as there in a forest and not a cave. Unless the "leaves" on there bodies are actually moss covered rocks its safe to say its a new Pokemon or perhaps even an evolutionary line.
I just signed it My Body Is Ready for the most interesting Smash Bros. character to date. Though I can't help but feel that the likes of these "random" characters like AC Villager and Wii Fit Trainer is making the new Smash Bros. seemed rushed and not taken seriously. That said I think it would still be a great idea to have Reggie as a character and be the last type of those somewhat goofy characters.
It really is just a handheld series, though there is potential in a Wii U version I'd rather have a classic style Paper Mario. Nothing like Super Paper Mario or Sticker Star
I'm trying to transition into digital only this gen.....But NOT for Nintendo, not with their policies the only digital retail I have is AC because it came with my special 3DS XL. Looks like my Xbox One will have all the non-physical love.
The Subspace Emissary was weird. I liked the story it was nice and epic and it had some surprising bosses from various Nintendo games(Rayquaza and Pokey) but ultimately something like Adventure Mode would be more suited towards single player. Just extend it and use every franchise as a side scrolling stage. That'd be a worthy switch.
Doesn't matter to me though of course I would prefer free. It would be nice to get storyline DLC maybe perhaps linking to Captain Olimar and/or Louie but it will probably end up being challenge mode missions and battle bingo levels.
Awww I am kind of ashamed that they took out White and Purple Pikmin and didn't add an actual "new" color but a big drawback(or should I say big relief) is the removal of caves which were notoriously difficult. I think these different styles of the trilogy should warrant a "Pikmin HD Combo" for $40 containing the first two games. Maybe they can even add a casual mode on the first Pikmin removing the 30 day time limit thus making this classic easier to actually beat. I admit I never finished either of the two games but hey I've waited 9 years for this and I ain't going to miss out on the Wii U's "real" launch title!
Looks I like I gotta break out the Zelda wiimote for this one. I think I might try out the Pro Controller for nostalgic purposes. I think what they really need to make is a Wii U Gamecube Controller. That would be perfect. I understand we have to give it up at some point but I really have some friends threatening to not convert to the new Smash Bros. if they can't use Gamecube controllers because those were what we grew up with for over 10 years since we were really young when the first one came out.
I'm so glad he got picked to come back. When Melee came out I was hoping that Olimar would be in the next Smash Bros. so naturally I chose him as my first fighter against my friends.........and lost. I like him but he just seemed to be too weak though he does have unique attacks. They definitely had to bring him back to advertise Pikmin 3 despite him not actually being a main character in that game. I hope he gets Rock and Winged Pikmin to use this time around.
Ya know I feel what this guy is saying completely, and that's the problem with Nintendo is that they just don't seem to get it but I feel like he's bashing on it to much. I know it looks exactly like on Gamecube but that's still not the point. It's only meant to hold us Zelda fans over for the real game. Kind of like how they brought Master Quest to America when Wind Waker was going to get released. Plus I remember hearing somewhere that the game would retail at $40, something that Game and Wario has tried and succeeded without a doubt, I was on vacation when it came out so when I went to Gamestop a week later I had got the last copy they had. It's already sold out after like a week which is unheard of for a Wii U game.

Re: Nintendo Download: 4th July (North America)
Sonic Drift 2 is actually quite good and possibly the only okay ripoff of the original Super Mario Kart.
