Re: Video: Christopher Lloyd Revives Doc Brown Role in New LEGO Dimensions Trailer

This is causing some serious internal dilemma, collecting Amiibo has become costly enough and they do very little in game. This looks set to be a really good, diverse experience with some of my most beloved franchises.....I mean Dr Who is just the icing on the blocky cake. Will definitely be taking the plunge on this one.

Oh if only Nintendo did a lego game.

I am a big Nintendo fan and regularly buy pretty much every game they churn out. I cant however understand why they don't just make their old VC titles available on IOS and Android....yes there are control challenges but if I can play GTA San Andreas I am sure I could play Metroid, Kid Icarus, Mario etc.

To put Nintendo into prespective.....Apple sold 74.5 Million I-Phones in a three month period to December 14...King...the folks behind Candry Crush, generated more revenue in 2014 that Nintendo.

I love my Wii U and my 3Ds but the Big N has to wake up, and selling old games for cheap on a 3DS isn't the way.

@zool
You are partly correct, kids have two main influences, parents and friends. My daughter loves Nintendo becuause I own a wii u and 3ds and we play all the time. She is excited for Smash U and the new Zelda. Her friend introduced her to Minecraft recently and she cant get enough of it.

One challenge which hasnt been mentioned is the ratio of male/female gamers. Making a massive assumption here but young boys dont want Yoshi or Kirby(to be honest I dont want these and i'm 27) they want lego batman, GTA, COD and all these other types of games which Nintendo doesnt create and has lost complete third party support for.

Metroid Prime Hunters was my first metroid experience, after this i've never been able to get into the 2D ones, I know there is a lot of love out there for 2d metroid but I wouldnt buy it, I would go and buy a 3ds metroid day 1.

Twilight princess I found a bit bland, The thing I love about Nintendo is they arent afraid to use a full colour palette and I want to see this in the next Zelda

Im hoping this E3 blows my mind just like when they revealed the 3ds.

Two wishes:
Metroid - I know everyone wants this
Zelda Wii U to look like the tech demo they did a couple of years ago, i love Wind Waker and its style but now is the time to drop the Zelda bomb everyone wants

I still remember opening my 3ds box, on day one, playing the AR games and face raiders and showing everyone I could how cool it was in 3d. Since then my original cosmo blue 3ds has had hundreds of hours of wonderful play time.This is my personal favourite ever console, after my N64.

Cannot wait for Super Smash Bros!

i can play pokemon stadium on my phone thanks to an emulator, so why cant I on my wii u. Where is Pokemon snap with gyro support.

Probably full of historic licensing issues but where is Turok, Goldeneye, Perfect Dark, Smash Bros,Diddy Kong Racing........

In terms of the gamecube, how about releasing double dash in the run up to MK8 and Melee in the run up to SSB WII U.

Nintendo are like a younger sibling, you love them but they piss you off so much!
