Hmm....I'll be getting that Koopa Shell for my Daisy amiibo to ride on and ? Block thing for display. Otherwise, they are just 10x worse than amiibos. I wonder if they have all the toys...
@yoshinatsu Nintendo is the one to blame, they actively avoided updating their system firmware to avoid piracy and are now completely abandoning development on ANYTHING Wii U based. Mario Party on 3DS had TWO entries, for the first time in handheld history.
This is a real shame, as it's the worst last few years a console has ever had.
@World I feel like Rio 2016 is a game that SEGA wants you to learn the ins and outs of, and keep you engaged for a long time. Sadly many didn't see it because of it's party like nature.
@Trikeboy I think alternative costumes should be restricted to just different costumes of the character. Like, put someone like Daisy in her own slot, and make a Sunshine Peach costume.
@DavCubeLP Oh, it's because Rosalina and Diddy Kong have the same NFC chips as the Smash version. So even very old games will support them if they did with the Smash one.
@Mitch_Dyer Nintendo's amiibo site is seriously inaccurate.
They list Mario and Link as being imcompatible with games such as Planet Robobot, when they obviously are. Nintendo JP is a MUCH better source, and Super Mario Maker is NOT listed.
I'm just going to say that there is an obvious anti-sports game bias going on at the Nintendo world. Despite the massive glaring and gameplay based flaws this game title has, you still forgive it because it is "Paper Mario", and Paper Mario is the BEST. Meanwhile, you don't hesitate to use the full 1-10 point scale for a game like Mario and Sonic at the Olympics, so you give a brutally harsh 5/10 score whilst stating false info about the game.
It has a better cast of characters, actual good gameplay and strategy to it and doesn't pander to Toads and memes. Oh, I and played both games.
The Wii U, whilst being a failure commercially, was a console that introduced Nintendo to the modern era of HD graphics and downloadable content, not to mention post launch support. It also toys with the idea of handheld/console interconnectivity and the NFC chip brought us a whole line of Nintendo toys in the form of amiibo! I'll miss her so much...
Honestly, this console should of lasted a few more years. I feel that no one would really trust Nintendo now thanks to the lack of third party support and constant droughts. Heck, nothing has been done about the piracy problem the Wii U is currently having now!
Also, why wasn't this masterpiece mentioned @ThomasBW84?
Remove vote-to-kick function in Mini Games. The host can kick players only in the Lobby. Disable small, floating and oddly shaped skins in public Tumble games. Fix for Battle mini game showdown playing Tumble mini game showdown sound. Fixed a bug where last player to die in Tumble would get stuck respawning. Fix for being able to unlock Hunger Pain achievement by killing yourself while starving. Fix for crash if a client wins the match and then quits the game.
Think about it, that system doesn't have a golf game or a baseball game, and the console allows for much easier local and online multiplayer than the 3DS does.
Wait...this game has online? And Mario and Sonic at the Olympics doesn't???
Wait, how comes this slow, plodding game gets an 8 whilst Mario and Sonic gets a scathing 5/10? I just don't get it. Beach Volleyball had a lot of depth.

Re: First Impressions: Back on Track with Mario Kart 8 Deluxe
I hope they add a Daisy amiibo Mii costume, but no new courses seems like a real bummer.

Re: Review: Super Mario Maker for Nintendo 3DS (3DS)
What???? 9/10 for a gimped Mario maker port whilst you aren't afraid to slam games like Mario and Sonic Rio because they are party games?
Re: Feature: Super Mario Maker FAQs - The Key Differences between the Wii U and 3DS Versions
@SamuFinland Nintendo in 2016
Re: Feature: Super Mario Maker FAQs - The Key Differences between the Wii U and 3DS Versions
They should have fixed that bug where the Daisy amiibo doesn't work.
Re: Random: Here's a Theory on the Rather Short NES Mini Controller Cables
@ReshiramZekrom OR! They could have made it a Wii U/3DS release.
Re: Random: Here's a Theory on the Rather Short NES Mini Controller Cables

Classic 2016 Nintendo

Re: Talking Point: What We'd Like To See In Super Smash Bros. For Nintendo Switch
It's nice to see people here supporting Daisy in Smash .
Re: Rumour: Nintendo Switch Release Date and Key Games Outlined
@SuperBaconKid The IR port on the Joycon could be used for pointing, and IR feels smoooothh.
Re: Talking Point: What We'd Like To See In Super Smash Bros. For Nintendo Switch
@Mega_Yarn_Poochy No she is not. Maybe in her debut, sure. But a lot has changed in 20 years.
Re: Talking Point: What We'd Like To See In Super Smash Bros. For Nintendo Switch
@Mega_Yarn_Poochy I agree. Clones suck. Who says Daisy has to be one?
Re: Talking Point: What We'd Like To See In Super Smash Bros. For Nintendo Switch
What I want to see
(As a separate character of course.)
Re: Feature: Reflecting on Four Years of the Wii U
In my eyes, the Wii U only had one major release that I bought in 2016....and it was Mario and Sonic at the Rio Olympics!!!!
I spent hours chasing my high score in Archery as Princess Daisy! This title is super underrated, Nintendo Life even gave it a scathing 5/10!!!!
Re: Rumour: Super Mario And Rabbids Crossover In Development For Nintendo Switch
Will Princess Daisy be a party member?

Re: ​Talking Point: Ports vs. Sequels On The Nintendo Switch
Fixed this article for you.
Re: Reminder: Super Mario Series Wave 2 amiibo Hit North America This Week
Now that my Daisy amiibo broke because of an unfortunate accident, I have to get a new one.
Re: Reminder: Super Mario Series Wave 2 amiibo Hit North America This Week
@Grumblevolcano I'm just goong to say that neither game was ready for that Daisy amiibo sass.
Waluigi DOES work in Mario Maker though.
Re: Reminder: Super Mario Series Wave 2 amiibo Hit North America This Week
I have Princess Daisy! And...you know, Rosalina, Boo and Wario.
Here's a picture.

Re: Random: Paper Mario: Color Splash Has an Iffy Issue in its Battle System
This isn't a glitch. This was actually intentional with Kamek.
Once, he turned all my cards into Jump...whilst I faced Spike enemies. Truly terrible design.
Re: Review: Paper Mario: Color Splash (Wii U)
Daisy is unhappy with this review. Not only because she isn't in the game...
Re: Review: Paper Mario: Color Splash (Wii U)
@readyletsgo Not a score lower than 7...I smell bribery.

Awesome! Glad to see that Princess Daisy plays the main character Rey!
Not surprising, as the real actor is called Daisy Ridley, ha!

Re: Talking Point: The Inevitability of Super Mario Run, Nintendo's Ace for the Mobile Market
It will be an ace if they introduce character IAP for people like me to keep grinding...
C'mon Nintendo...I would deposit hundreds for Daisy...
Re: Yoshi's Woolly World Will Soften Up Your 3DS In 2017, Poochy amiibo Also Incoming
@rjejr Smells like a cash grab to me. I hope the Wii U version will be updated to add compatibility to it. Or even....a DAISY YOSHI COSTUME OMG!
Here's Citrus Yoshi for reference.
Re: Mario Sports Superstars Is A Collection Of Five Games In One
Should have been on Wii U.
Think about it, that system doesn't have a golf game or a baseball game, and the console allows for much easier local and online multiplayer than the 3DS does.
Wait...this game has online? And Mario and Sonic at the Olympics doesn't???
Re: Rumour: Detachable NX Controllers Will Offer Wii-Like Motion Control And Advanced Force Feedback
@Piersen They're probably sacrificing power AND battery life for this.
Re: Mario Makes an Appearance in the Rio Olympics Closing Ceremony
This was actually pretty fun to watch!
Still, I rate it a 5/10. It's missing something...

Re: Monster Boy's Gamescom 2016 Trailer Looks Amazing, Nintendo Release Confirmed
Why hold it back for NX when the Wii U is perfectly capable?
Re: Review: Metroid Prime: Blast Ball (3DS)
The amiibo costume variety sucks. Only Mario, Luigi, Peach, Rosalina, Bowser and Bowser Jr?
Re: Feature: Ten Ideal Launch Year Nintendo NX Games
"As one of the slickest and most impressive Wii U games on a technical level"
Err, that title either goes to Mario Kart 8, Mario Party 10 or Mario and Sonic Rio 2016.
Oh, and I'm only in if THIS gal makes it to Smash Bros NX! Pls Nintendo.
Re: Sources Suggest That Pokémon and Mario Will Arrive on Nintendo NX in First Six Months
@Alundra-1998 Doubt that it will even hit 1080p with THESE specs. Maybe 1366x768?
I suuuree hope the new Mario game has Daisy in it! I've been eyeing a 3DS so I can play Daisy Golf, Daisy Kart 7 (4?) and Daisy Party Star Rush.
Re: Weirdness: Shadow the Hedgehog is Rather Foul-Mouthed in Mario & Sonic at the Rio Olympics
@KickButt_Gaming I know! She's very athletic.
Re: Poll: The Nintendo NX - Where Do You Stand on the Future of Nintendo?
This better have Daisy playable in the new Smash Bros game. Otherwise I'm staying away from it.
Re: Weirdness: Shadow the Hedgehog is Rather Foul-Mouthed in Mario & Sonic at the Rio Olympics
Glad this game is getting attention! It's really good.
Well...is this 7+ material to you guys?
