Absolutely incredible display of skill, and you looked so cool throughout the whole run! Now, how many shirts didn't get taken from the event, so you can do a giveaway of them on here?

Ladies and Gentlemen, let 'em die!

So hyped! I've cleared my schedule, and my PC is ready for a week-long session of staying on constantly! Got my donation money ready; let's do this!

I dig the Shovel Knight one! Grabbed! Thank you for posting these.

Congratulations to whoever won this! This was a very nice thing for you to do, NLife. I mentioned in my submission that I wanted to win the Wii U for my partner so that I could use the money saved (I was going to buy her a Wii U anyway) to help my partner travel to see her Grandma before she passed away, but unfortunately she died a lot earlier than expected this morning.

Life is a series of surprises, good and bad, but this kindness that the people of this website has shown to help make someone have a great Christmas is very inspiring!

This is why I never shop at GAME, and neither should any gamer with any sense. Supermarkets, the internet and lesser known game stores are where you should spend your money. GAME charge £49.99 for every new Wii U game! No wonder they almost went out of business.

Am I the only one that is actually quite disappointed with the quality checking of these amiibos? One would assume that a product made by Nintendo would be of a very high standard, yet you have to really look at each figure that you buy to make sure it's not got dodgy eyes, a missing limb, paint defects, etc. The Disney Infinity figures are much higher quality, and the same should be expected of Nintendo. Don't get me wrong, I really enjoy my Samus and Mario amiibo, but I'm not particularly happy with the cheap quality.

I have 2 OR/AS demo codes here that I don't need. The majority of you have probably already got the demo, but for those still waiting, good luck.

Enjoy. Please be kind and say thanks once you've activated one. Have a great day, everyone!

@Umbreon Have you managed to get a code yet? I have 2 spares.

It looks beautiful, that's for sure, but I may be one of the few that actually prefers the old style of RSE. Then again, I'm not used to a 3D Pokemon, because I'm only an hour in to Pokemon Y.

The only issue I'm having with this demo is that I don't think I can turn the battle animations off. I've never liked having them on because it drags the battles out.

@DarkLeone you don't care if you get a code, but you signed up as soon as it opened, and you're still here waiting? You DO care.

Yes! I can't wait to play this game!

I haven't got a clue what I've just read about.

@SahashraLA I get the feeling you've commented on the wrong article?

That's a shame. It's been hard to find the magazine lately though, with most Supermarkets dropping it, and even WHSmith had very few copies. I used to read the magazines a lot, though I preferred NGamer (I may be slightly wrong on the name). I'll pick up a copy of the last issue for collection purposes though.

Just create a random account solely for entering competitions if you're too ashamed to show people what you're interested in.

Does anyone have the link to the YouTube video? I can't view Flash videos on my iPad. I thought most people used HTML5 these days.

EDIT: Ah, is the video from Twitch? That might explain it, and why I can't find a YouTube video of it. I'll have to jump to my PC then.

Capcom, here's an idea; go back to making games your fans actually care for than rehashing SF IV over and over, turning Resident Evil in to a train wreck, and ruining the Breath of Fire franchise, amongst other things. You'll find that you'll start making money again so that you need not try to file some pathetic lawsuit.

Tell you what, for that advice you can hire me. Then, I can throw it back in your face because I'm not one for sailing on a sinking ship.

Similar deal on the Zelda 3DS XL, with a NES Zelda shirt. I bought that one as though I'll buy that shirt, I already have a Wii U.

Yes, I got a code, thanks for the heads up! I've been wanting to try this out for some time.

There's no chocolate in it though.

Glad to hear he's OK, and I wish him a speedy recovery!

They must be announcing Majora's Mask 3D today, because I just went on Animal Crossing and bought a fortune cookie. What prize did I get? The mask of course!

Are wireless controllers really all that important to you all? How far do you sit away from the screen that a wired controller is an inconvenience? Stop being the pathetic "gamers" of the internet and moaning about trivial things. Grow up.

@Hortencio No, but at least I'm not whining like a little girl.

@ACK No worries, I just found it comical that you bought it all around to farming.

@Hortencio You don't have to read them.

@ACK - Do you have a thing for crops?

Yes! I love Harvest Moon! I'll be keeping an eye on this for sure!

If I recall, mine was sent out for delivery from Sheffield at 7am and got to me 3 hours later. I live in Mansfield.

EDIT: Yeah, received at the service centre at 3:33am, out for delivery at 7:27am and delivered at 9:55am.

Mine arrived at 10am this morning! I then got a text from them (which also left me wondering why Nintendo feels they can just give out my mobile number) to tell me it had been delivered.

I'm now currently wearing my Bullet Bill shirt, have put my Spiny Blue Shell and Red Shell key ring on my shelf, slotted the case in to my Wii U collection, and have played a few Grand Prix's on the game. It's excellent, and so gorgeous!

I'm going to pick this up soon, but not through the MK8 promotion, as the game retails for around £20 new. I'll be playing the smarter option for myself, and picking up Monster Hunter 3 Ultimate, as the game is still upwards of £30 pre-owned and I haven't played much of the original game on the Wii.

I received the same email as you guys, so fingers crossed!

I've received 2 emails from Nintendo today. One when I sent them a pretty angry email about them not dispatching until the last minute, where they said "it should arrive today or tomorrow", and another saying that it has been dispatched with an ETA for tomorrow. However, in the tracking, it says it's awaiting collection.

I don't think I'll be ordering from the official website again, as Amazon, ShopTo and even GAME dispatch days in advance! You know something is wrong when you'd rather order from GAME.

Only Mario could get away with driving an actual car in a kart race. Can you imagine taking a car through a real go-kart course? Anarchy! And, lots of blood...

I have doubts that Nintendo are going to even get the game to me Friday. I was hoping to get it on my birthday (tomorrow), but they haven't even dispatched it yet! They took the money last Friday, for Christ's sake!

I'll be happy to receive it Friday, but I would have expected it be posted by now.

I'm getting both (well, I've already got Watch Dogs on the PS4). My birthday is on Thursday, so I've got Watch Dogs as an early present, and I've ordered Mario Kart 8 which might even arrive on my birthday! Pretty good week for me.

@ZenTurtle It's Nintendo, so whatever it is will suck for the fans hoping to see them come back. They know what we want, they just refuse to give it and keep bleeding money.

@Boxmonkey It certainly sounds that way, which is a massive mistake. 2014 is incredibly important for Nintendo, as the other next gen consoles are getting integrated in to the industry.

I really want to watch these videos, but I want as many tracks as possible to be a surprise, so I'm avoiding watching anything MK8 related.

Significant 3DS support is brilliant, but we appear to be glossing over the fact that there's not much in development for the Wii U, especially from a developer that seems committed to Nintendo. Are we just gracefully accepting the Wii U's a failure now? There's SO MUCH that SEGA could bring to the Wii U and they could also convince Atlus to bring a number of games over, which would drastically increase the console's appeal, but instead it just appears they're just releasing games on it reluctantly.

This year is going to be make or break with Nintendo as the PS4 and X1 will start powering forward with some great titles, while Nintendo have Mario Kart 8, Bayonetta 2 and to a very lesser extent Hyrule Warriors as their big hitters. All of which are unfortunately going to struggle to see the Wii U through (they're going to be awesome, but aren't going to sell consoles by the boatload).

Even Nintendo are giving up on it, and I really thought that SEGA would be one of the companies dedicated to supporting the Wii U. So much potential, but so little support. I want those years back where Nintendo could have a console that wasn't a top seller but had some absolutely incredible titles. The N64 never matched the PS1 in sales, but gave birth to games that were so incredible, they still inspire to this day. Where is that Nintendo now?

This right here. It's awesome!

The game looks very exciting, and the new information was great, but that UK Direct was a disaster! My God, it was awful! I really don't care for forced excitement and would much preferred it if they'd have gotten actual people excited about the game to present it, and none of this amateur acting crap.

@kensredemption The game has a 16+ rating. It isn't targeting kids.

Even though I'm a guy, and people seem to frown upon us liking pink, I think this looks really nice!

I don't find this sexist at all. One thing you'll know about males and females is that they find certain body parts rather attractive. Having a girl with big breasts is just the same as having men with overly muscular torsos. Do they never think that it might be insensitive towards slimmer men? No, they only care about how they are being portrayed.

Let me tell you something else; many women store their phones and money in their bras to keep them safe. How is this picture any different to that. The only people that find these things sexist are the sexist people themselves.

Man, I miss living in a world where gaming news didn't have to revolve around smartphone and tablet "gaming" all of time. It isn't the holy grail of the gaming world, no matter how much the media and analysts try to convince us so. It's awkward as hell to play and doesn't feel natural unless you're playing a puzzle game.

Nintendo don't need to port crap to the dark side of gaming, they just need to be more aggressive like they were 10-15 years ago. They've become complacent, and comfortable behind the pack just doing their own thing. Nintendo thrives when they have someone to compete against, like SEGA. Ever since SEGA went to disc based systems and then dropped out of the console market, Nintendo hasn't had a true competitor (yeah, they went against Sony for a while, but then the PS1 was primarily competing with the Saturn as the N64 was a cartridge based system, and later the PS2 had Xbox to contend with) to really get their teeth in to. They've gone through multiple innovations that no one else has challenged (at least not directly, as the Kinect is a different kind of motion control and the Move is... well, it's not really anything) so they've had a portion of the market to themselves.

They need to fight their way out of their comfort zone in the "Nintendo part of the market", and start chomping at the feet of the market leaders to really get people to notice them again. They should demand to be seen, considering they are responsible for us all doing what we do today.

@unrandomsam you rate a game on how good it is, not how much it will appeal to people. If a game is made for a niche market (Beyond: Two Souls, for instance), but it still amazing, it deserves a justified review score. If the game is similar to previous entries, but is still a fantastic game it should be rated as high as well.

I just got one. I have no doubts that it'll probably look a bit crap when I receive it, but I decided now was as good a time as any to actually spend some of these points I've been saving up. I'm still interested in getting the statue that's in the catalogue, but you can buy it on eBay for about £20.
