You shouldn't be able to take people's money on the basis of a Wii U port then cast the port into doubt once you've received their money. Kickstarter is so dodgy...

They seriously need to chill with these amiibo cards.

It was £8, not 20, on amazon and tesco. Monster hunter was also £8 at tesco, while Luigis mansion was £8.50 on both. So that explains all their sales bumps.

DLC: the Game.
Some seriously gross practices being undertaken by Nintendo here. Won't be buying.

@allav866 amiibo support has been confirmed already, and is identical to that of the Wii U version.

Nice Nintendo give this game a go if you haven't tried it!

Very happy for boxed collectors. I get why Nintendo blocks scanning in he box - many amino features are one time unlocks - but it's nice for certain collectors to be able to use amiibo in their own way.

Are those sensible nominations for best handheld game? Well I never...

So, it's 99seconds with awful graphics and fewer great tunes. Yawn.
If anyone is looking for a good multiplayer game, I'd definitely recommend 99seconds. It's dirt cheap, goes up to 5 players and is so simple anyone can play it. The single player mode is an addictive score chaser as well.

@MitchVogel I'll let them off the hook for MM3D; it is a remake after all, but this is a year which included the release of MH4U, Codename: STEAM, Steamworld Heist and several several excellent JRPGs on 3DS. Not a single nomination is a joke.

What the hell was "innovative" about Mario Maker? And how can there be no (ZERO) 3DS nominees for best handheld/phone game?
These video game awards are such populist trite.
(Having said that I still can't get my head round how Splatoon beat all this year's bland sequels in the shooter and multiplayer categories in The Video Game Awards.)

Gotta make Shovel Knight 64!

In other words, development for Splatoon NX begins in January.

Nice name drop of the excellent Rhythm Thief!
Hope this game comes to Europe soon

Decent sales for Rhythm Paradise! Pleeeeease localise!!!!

@King47 As evidenced by this article, supply appears to be lower than demand. This is a disservice to people who would like to buy the game for its regular price.

If NoA really didn't want to publish the game, they just shouldn't have. It is a disservice to fans to produce so very few copies. Really poor behaviour from the company tbh. Another publisher could have stepped in and printed enough copies to satisfy demand.

sigh just waiting for the inevitable win of an unnecessarily limited level editor over the best new idea Nintendo has had in over a decade.

That is a fair few discounts O.o
I'll be getting Minecraft and the last couple Curve Digital games I don't yet own. Plus a few other discounts if I can afford it.

Sad to see Konami do reasonably well. F*ck Konami.

Woop woop! But pricier than I imagined (that's more than the other versions isn't it? I got the ps3 edition disc for under £15) but still great to see!

I thought this looked good, will pick it up soon. Good review.

Big, big mistake to release Harvest December in one big, expensive chunk Circle. The main attraction of the series in Japan seemed to be its periodic cheap release of different parts.
I hope it still sells; we need more visual novels.

@KO-Cub They could make a good world for the game. Great.
It's not easy to go from making RPGs to FPS. Plus, Monolith are better doing their own, original thing than just making another sequel to a pre-established Nintendo franchise.

@Freeon-Leon I don't think they're suitably accomplished in the genre to create the next Metroid.

I'm assuming this will be £24.99 (like Chibi Robo), which isn't too bad. I may pick it up if it his £15.

Arkham knight is on the list? What populist tripe xD

In what way are amiibo selling for their RRP a Black Friday deal? Especially since they have ALWAYS gone for RRP on Nintendo's store...

How bloody miserable do you have to be to sue a children's cartoon over a parody? So glad he lost.

Woops, forgot to vote for Shovel Knight! I have the physical version anyway so it doesn't matter...

NINTENDO OF AMERICA SUCKS, EUROPE GETS EVERYTHING!!!11!11!1!

@brandonbwii Oh, that's nice to hear, thanks.

@Link41x I thought Blok Drop U was good. Too bad the dev released an unfinished game and then lied to us about his plans to finish it.

@Splatburst one day this has to happen!

The fact Wii Fit U is 15th ahead of Deus Ex, Mass Effect, Rayman Legends, Lego City, Darksiders 2 and so many other games sums up so much that is wrong with Nintendo gamers.

This studio has gone so downhill :/

I have a feeling this will sell better than the game...

Wow.
This alone is making me consider buying MHX, despite the fact I've barely touched 4...

I love Mario Tennis on the gameboy, found it so addictive as a kid. The only other one I've played is Power Tennis on the Wii, which was OK.

Interesting to note that the two games with RPG elements have a tiny proportion of the vote between them, despite Mario Tennis fans constantly whinging about the removal of RPG elements in modern MT games.

Are you sure this costs 700 points? I can't recall a DSiWare game ever costing that amount - normally it's 200, 500, 800 or 1,000+

Such a fantastic game.... still waiting for a Wii U VC release so I can play it again!

Remains to this day one of my favourite Zeldas, certainly my favourite handheld Zelda. This rendition of the overworld theme is brilliant.

But... I was under the impression that Notch invented voxels!!

Wii U version cancelled in 3...2...

So many women are unnable to have an avatar that represents them in-game? That's pretty sexist, Nintendo.

"Stone Shire (Finger Gun Games, €1.00 / £1.00...)"
Someone heard about Minecraft coming to Wii U

That Zelda tech demo all those E3s ago showed us what a realistic Zelda can look like on Wii U. This looks so poor in contrast.
Having said that, I need a version of this with button controls, so I guess I'll just buy it. I hate you, Nintendo -_-

Another swordfighter... and it's not even a character remotely linked with Nintendo. We got him yet we're almost certainly not getting Isaac. Yay.

Nintendo are such mugs for giving free publicity to third parties disinterested in their consoles. No Street Fighter for Wii U, just one Metal Gear game on Nintendo since GameCube (a remake on 3DS to boot), no proper Final Fantasy since 6...

@Geonjaha The crafting system breaks the PC version for me. It's so damn tedious having to constantly look up recipes!
Plus I can never get it to run at an acceptable frame rate on any PC I've had, though that's more my problem than the game's

@IceClimbers good point.
