Re: Nintendo President Tatsumi Kimishima Feels The 3DS Can "Continue In Its Own Form"

This is pretty standard for their handheld consoles. For the most part, Nintendo drop support and focus on the next thing, however the previous gen handheld usually has a bit more life to it and there's usually a bit of overlap between the two handhelds.

...and usually the last big hit for the handheld, a Pokemon game, appears after the release of the new device (Pokemon Crystal for GBC/GBA, Emerald for GBA/DS, Black 2 / White 2 for DS/3DS).

Re: Nintendo Is Interested In Bringing amiibo Support To Smartphones

I think this is an excellent idea. Amiibo have been a huge success among those who already own Nintendo consoles...imagine if they opened up to a whole new market! It's also a great opportunity to give some of their lesser-known IPs some great exposure. I can also see them being integrated well within a free-to-play environment.

Re: Metroid Prime: Federation Force is Coming Sooner Than Expected

I thought it looked fairly good and that's today's presentation would lift people's opinions on it...clearly I was wrong, as it's being down-voted massively on YouTube and receiving its fair share of negative comments on other news sites. I really don't get the unconditional hate for this game...

Re: Review: Rodea the Sky Soldier (Wii U)

Buizel

I really wanted to like this game, but after several attempts at the Wii U and 3DS at a number of events in the UK, I'd been completely put off =/
It appears the reviews aren't doing much to help...

Re: GAME Confirms Shovel Knight amiibo

Buizel

This all looks off to me. I've seen more convincing fake images, and a £5 deposit? Since when have GAME taken deposits for Amiibo?

EDIT: My mistake! Strange that GAME take deposits on Amiibo and not actual games!
