Oh sweet irony, the "hardcore gamers" aren't happy that Nintendo is getting an M rated exclusive? Too bad LMAO! 2014 is gonna be a good year for Nintendo, Wii U & 3DS!

Sounds like some one who saw Nintendo's adds on TV and went crazy, probably saw that Mario 3D World has gotten outstanding reviews all around and figured better do a 180 before it bites me, sort of like a tech site I'm familiar with * cough * CNET * cough *

Wii U systems are actually sold out this holiday in many of my local retailers here in PR like gamestop, toys r us and walmart, I think best buy has a few but left but they are really flying off the store shelves.

At first I didnt care much for the gamepad but after playing with it and using many of its features that has changed (still prefer the pro controller though), I know Nintendo said they would add a patch that allows two gamepads to play at a time, when that happens I suppose they plan on selling the gamepad as a seperate controller but how much would it cost?

Yeah im glad they are targeting the younger crowd, but when will they show people in there 20's-30's playing having a good time and all of a sudden there girlfriend/boyfriend shows up and takes over the TV, so they switch to the gamepad and keep gaming or they just get a bowl of popcorn and watch Netflix or Nintendo TVii to show off the Wii U as more than a gaming machine? All those are potential TV adds. Even showing what Miiverse is and how it works would be a step in the right direction

Wow... So many people saying wii u is doomed when a few months back they where the same people singing Nintendo's praises saying it will be like the 3DS when it turned around... I honestly love my Wii U & my 3DS XL and even though it might not look good for Nintendo's home console only time will tell who's right, I honestly plan on sticking with the Wii U/ 3DS combo this gen (Unless I find a dirt cheap PS4 or pick one up after a pretty heavy Price drop)

Reads title, grabs wallet from pocket, about to commence throwing money at screen, reads next line, puts wallet back in pocket, sighs & becomes sad
Thank you for ruining my dreams NintendoLife... Lol but seriously Capcom needs to hurry up and announce this for NA & EU

@ferthpoet , not sure but after explaining the Wii U she was very enthusiastic about about getting her son one

@SneakyStyle , I have read of this sort of thing happening before but never actually seen & heard of some one getting false info from an electronics department employee... It's sad

@GamerJunkie , the PS4 being "better" is really a preference thing, I'll admit the PS4 has some nice specs and features but to say you wouldn't recommend the Wii U over the PS4 & Xbox ONE means you probably haven't played Pikmin 3, Wonderful101, Super Luigi U or any of the 3rd party or indie games that have been released, and Just so you know I'm 25 and still find Nintendo games to be better quality and just better experiences than Sony and Microsoft and before you ask, yes I own a 360 and used to own a PS3 (sold it)

I was at Walmart today putting a few things on lay away, when all of a sudden I hear a mother asking an employee whats the difference between wii & wii u and the employee said that there is no difference between them... I stopped and said excuse me thats not true they are two different consoles, and proceeded to explain the differences between the two... So either employees in the electronic departments are very uninformed or this one in particular didn't want to sell a wii u... Nintendo NEEDS to get the message out more and more clearly what the Wii u is, evrn if it meand drawing it on a map as long as casuals and other non Nintendo gamers understand how awesome the wii u is and can be

Tingles theme lmao! XD

so much beauty

Dark realistic style is my favorite, fell in love with twilight princess the moment I turned on my Wii

@Dogpigfish, I wouldn't want Nintendo to turn all there franchises into shooters but they could use at least one exclusive shooter of there own, and Namco actually help Nintendo with the online modes for wii sports club which should drop soon to the e-shop, I just hope they keep trying to get support for more online features on there IP & even though a Naughty Dog or Bungie collaboration with Nintendo would be awesome I doubt it will ever happen but that metroid prime idea could be beyond epic if Retro studios and Bungie where to collaborate on that together

@twistedbee, thats very true, and I have said a few times that Nintendo needs a great online multiplayer FPS to go against COD, Battlefield, halo and all the other FPS. obviously Nintendo would need a top of the line IP to compete, in this case it could be Metroid Prime, all who played metroid prime hunters for the DS should have an idea of what it could be like, imagine it but on a much bigger scale (and better controls), customizable options for your weapons/armor for online matches, 1080p @ 60fps, different game modes, a rich campaign mode... a guy could dream right

It really is sad that so many people look down at the Wii U like if it wasn't a fully capable console, ever since I bought a Wii U I haven't touched my 360. I know Nintendo is still playing catch-up when it comes to online features but they ARE making progress and when sales pick up (and they will) you'll see that 3rd party developers are gonna be as enthusiastic about supporting the U as they where before it launched, but for now it is what it is

I thought they where good, made me laugh xD

Nintendo and online has a good sound to it, I know there main focus is still local multiplayer but I hope they really try going more online multiplayer this time around

Unless its a Twilight Princess, Metroid prime or F-Zero HD remake I would prefer a new game all together

@TreesenHauser, new wii? So you mean that gamepad thingy isn't a wii peripheral? O.o

Nintendo is probably trying to sell the bundles at a full retail price with the wiimote to justify it and will probably have a digital release later with the reduced price, just making an educated guess.

@sinalefa, yea your right about the wiimote even though almost every gamer has at least one lying around

Would of loved to own the orange one, too bad it probably wont make it to the US (hope I'm wrong)

Heeeeeelp!!! I'm throwing money at the screen but nothings happening!!!

Just signed up thanks for the heads up

I lost all respect for capcom long ago, they ruined the resident evil series turning it into a shooter and they literally abandoned mega man. Unless they finish mega man legends 3 & release it (not gonna happen) I would prefer they stay away from mighty no. 9

@NINTENCHIP, you clearly never played Metroid Prime Hunters for the original DS, that game had Local & online multiplayer and it worked fine (the touch screen controls where awkward but thats not the point) they need something similar but on a larger scale, Beautiful HD graphics output at 1080p running a smooth 60 fps, having TDM with different Hunters including Samus or creating your own as a customizable hunters (weapons, armor, etc.)... Yea a Game mode like THAT if implemented would definitely be a bad thing

I just want a FPS Metriod game (prime series or not) developed by retro with online multiplayer on par with Halo or COD (hopefully better), is that to much to ask?

Pre ordered, Pokemon Y, LOZ a link between worlds and COD ghosts for wii u, just bought W101 (awesome game, a wii u must have) and I'm probably picking up Lost World and Watch dogs... My poor wallet

Please bring back the prime series or have the next metroid done in that fashion with obvious new features, Nintendos own Heavy Story Driven FPS with online multiplayer running at 60fps... (Sigh) a guy can dream right?

@ScorpionMG, I agree wii u is a better name than xbox one but I'm sure they wont have a problem having people understand what it is because they have been marketing it like crazy, thats why I think Nintendo should goall out on there ads just because they have alot of software on the way

Educate the masses make it as clear as possible that the wii and wii u are two totally different machines

@ScorpionMG, They did have various events but little mass media exposure compared to other launches, thats why IMO there are still people ignorant enough to think that the wii u is just a wii periferal

@ScorpionMG, yeah I just wanted to make sure thats what reggie said, I never bought any wii fit titles but I might give this download version a try just because my cousin has the balance board collecting dust at his house so he'll probably let me borrow it.

And wii sport going online O.o
Mind = blown
It would seem nintendo is getting serious with online modes even if it is little by little

Let me get this straight... If I buy the wii fit meter for $20 the digital copy is free? O.o

I understand the gamepad should be the center of attention for the wii u but I honestly love playing with the pro controller more, to bad they didnt add a headset jack for those multiplayer games that have voice chat :/

@gaby_gabito, I was thinking the exact same thing. But there ARE a lot of characters from the Mario series as it is, so I really don't expect to see any other additions from that franchise except maybe Bowser jr.

@Nintendojoe64, I share your chain of thought, for this one I might need to be persuaded by Nintendo lifes review to consider replaying this one

Can't ever turn down trying an RPG definitely going on my wishlist

Nintendo is doomed thats why I'm hyped for the next gen Atari HD console its gonna be awesome -.-

Aaaaaaaaaawwwww Yeeeaaaahhhhh xD

I think its great in all honesty, certain aspects resemble the wii u game pad, like the L/R buttons on top and the home button, so all those going on crazy rants really need to relax and think about who this is aimed for because this is just an affordable solution to the 3DS excluding the 3D effect and the hinge that kids love to break. Also I know its hasn't been alot of compitition but the VITA had a price drop anounced so Nintendo is probably using this as an even more affordable and accessible price point to those without a 3DS or hand held console.

I really hate how IGN always trash talks Nintendo, yes the Wii U isn't in the best shape sales wise but if it where Microsoft or Sony in this situation I bet they would all be singing songs of hope instead of constantly trying to kick them down.

I have to admit that I haven't played a Sonic Game since the Dream Cast... But that will definitely change when Lost World is released.

Any word as to when we can pre order?

How about a DLC pack with new maps and the option of playing as Olimar and Louie, I would buy it instantly

HOLY $?!¥ that was bad @$&!!! Im not a PC gamer but for a Zelda game that looked that awsome I would probably get into it.

Really!? -.-
I bought a red 3DS XL a little over two months ago, I tried to wait until the black version hit NA but there where way to many games being released that I was interested in playing... Now I dont know if I should sell my current XL just to have it the color I wanted
