"The only platform where freemium isn’t making a huge impact because the console holders, as I understand it, are scared of it." Is it my imagination, or is this not actually a sentence?
This game is totally worth 100 Club Nintendo coins. I've loved Picross since I discovered it a few months ago, and this is no exception. However, I am rather unimpressed with the soundtrack.
This is just speculation. Similar games will exist at some point, but EBGames hasn't had any special insider information. Considering the image used to make the box art is something from the release of DKCR, and can be found by a simple Google image search of "Donkey Kong and Diddy", I find this to be pure speculation.
That's very unfortunate. I told myself a while ago that if it turned out to not have the option of Classic play (meaning everyone moving individually), that I wouldn't be buying it, and I'll stick to that. Oh well.
Ah, yes. Smash Bros Dojo. I remember coming home from school and checking the Dojo to see if anything new had been revealed, every single day. Ah, memories.
I find that I do better playing Ocarina by ear than by sheet music. It only works if you have a good sense of pitch like I have. Also, this music is already everywhere on the internet. I find these to be pretty much superfluous.
How is the glitchyness reletive to 1-4? I remember that I began to loathe 1-4 because of its many game-breaking glitches (two of which prevented me from getting 100% on separate occasions). After near 100%ing 1-4 twice, but being prevented both times, I got kinda pissed. Is that fixed at all here?
IF this is true, which I very much doubt, the WiiU will be to the new consoles what the Wii was to the PS3 and 360: less powerful, but considerably more kick
Not to mention my previously stated point that Nintendo has a team (or teams) of fully trained lawyers, and we don't. I think that they know what they're talking about a lot more than we do.
I disagree, primeris. While yes, you buy a license to play the game, that doesn't mean you can treat the cartridge/disk however you want, and assume that Nintendo will provide you with a replacement. If you break your games, it's your own fault, and in no way can Nintendo be held liable. If you take a glance inside the instruction booklet of most games, there is a legal statement which is as follows: "Copying of any Nintendo game is illegal and is strictly prohibited by domestic and international intellectual property laws. 'Back-up' or 'archival' copies are not authorized and are not necessary to protect your software. Violators will be prosecuted."

I'm surprised that none of you fans have brought up Monster Hunter yet. I personally don't like the game, but I could see how it could work.

More like horribly embedded. =P

It looks great, if you're into that kinda game. I've never been a Fire Emblem guy, personally.

How is a [expletive] touch screen anything like the XBox360's control scheme? Seriously? This guy is full of [expletive].

Re: Kid Icarus 3D Anime Hits North America This Week
My 3DS decided to tell me about this at one in the morning, while I was trying to sleep. I was not happy.
Re: Indie Developer Phil Fish Says Japanese Games 'Suck'
What an idiot. It makes me laugh.
Re: This is Meloetta, Pokémon Number 648
"Leaked"? I knew about this back when Black/White were new. I also knew then about the purple Robot bug thing. You know, #649.
Re: Metroid
This will finally give me the motivation to finish memorizing this game. I'm kinda excited.
Re: Review: Super Mario Bros. (3DS eShop / NES)
2 USA and 3 are so much better. And the All-Stars version of each of them is better than the original version.
Re: Review: Mario Party 9 (Wii)
That's very unfortunate. I told myself a while ago that if it turned out to not have the option of Classic play (meaning everyone moving individually), that I wouldn't be buying it, and I'll stick to that. Oh well.

Re: Get Your Pokémon Sequels Teaser Trailer Here
I dunno. Unlike the way that most people around here seem, I'm kinda excited about these games. They could be pretty good.

Re: Review: Mario & Sonic at the London 2012 Olympic Games (3DS)
From the demo, I kinda like it. Not enough to warrant buying it, by any means, but I find it an enjoyable pick-up-and-play type game.

Re: Mario and Zelda Sheet Music Now Available
I find that I do better playing Ocarina by ear than by sheet music. It only works if you have a good sense of pitch like I have.
Also, this music is already everywhere on the internet. I find these to be pretty much superfluous.
Re: Review: LEGO Harry Potter: Years 5-7 (Wii)

I FREAKIN LOVE THIS GAME.

Re: Icon Games: "Nintendo's Policies Put Jobs at Risk"
Cry some more, Icon. If you made good games, maybe you wouldn't be a risk to the jobs of your employees.
Re: Nintendo Life Now Has a Google+ Page
It's a colour commonly known as red-orange. Also, it's a kind of ironic: I first saw this post on FaceBook.
Re: Nintendo Life Now Has a Google+ Page
I much prefer the Google Minus world. It's got lots of Bloopers.
Re: Rumour: Wii U Heading for E3 Face-Off with PS4 and Xbox 720
IF this is true, which I very much doubt, the WiiU will be to the new consoles what the Wii was to the PS3 and 360: less powerful, but considerably more kick
