@BulbasaurusRex Having a physical copy is peace of mind. I always worry I will somehow break my console, and the games on it will get wiped out. Whereas a disc or cartridge is only lost if IT breaks. Easier to replace a game than a console. I also like to stack things on a shelf, I like the idea of a "game library". Call me old fashioned.
I actually found out earlier that they don't even sell Wii points cards anymore, and I have no debit card and it's not available on Wii U for some dumb reason so Virtual Console wasn't an option for me.
But I did just now score a ps1 copy of Chrono Trigger on eBay for 11 bucks. It's missing the original case but I can get that easily later on if I really want it.

Slightly better graphics? Do some versions have worse graphics or something? I mean, I kinda expect the original on snes to look slightly worse than the newer ones, if that's what you mean.

@BulbasaurusRex 50 bucks? Nah, I can get a brand new copy of the ds version on ebay for about $25. The ps1 version looks like it goes for around $30 for a complete copy, and it comes with another game(Some Final Fantasy game I'm not familiar with). That's not really that expensive for a highly-acclaimed game and should be worth the price, imo.

@BulbasaurusRex But I'd rather have a physical copy.

Still on my to-play list. Should I go for the ps1 version or ds version? ps1 is packed with a Final Fantasy game I know nothing about, but the DS version is better, I hear...

And should I play this before playing Chrono Cross, or can I play that one before Trigger without spoilers? I am able to buy a cheap copy of Cross soon if I decide I want it...But maybe I should focus on getting Trigger first?

For a gen 1 game at that price, I'll pass. If it were Gold or Silver, I would bite. That's where my nostalgia is strongest.

Banana for scale? lol

Nice little handheld. Though, I doubt I'd buy one.

I still just want to know if a Nintendo console will get a FF7 port or not.

They only showed fast travel and loading screens. The ones I care about are the packs that help enemies and npcs and stuff like that load up and spawn. Are they going to do another comparison video for that stuff?

I just hope they restock Palutena. And not just on Amazon...

@MitchVogel So I'm guessing it won't even qualify for next year's award from this place and so it misses out of consideration. That's dumb.

So is Xenoblade Chronicles X not eligible since it comes out in December, or do they just not like it enough? (Assuming this site's reviewers have already gotten their copies...Or would the game just be eligible for next year's awards?)

This was supposed to be a surprise? I kinda figured this event 'mon was coming, since gamestop got an exclusive three-pack card blister with a zoroark pin in it. The last time they got a card blister with a pin that was exclusive, it was the dragonite pin blister which was released at the same time the dragonite event came around. That zoroark pin blister was supposed to come out today, but my store doesn't have it yet.

Freaking Mcdonalds? That's the worst fast "food" place...Ewww...

Hopefully we can just grab it with the wifi signal(or whatever it's called) by just going into the Mcdonalds. I don't want to have to buy a burger or stand in line in order to get a code. If I stand in line, I would buy some food even if the code is free because anxiety would make me too embarrassed to go in for just that. Then that would be a waste because Mcdonalds is gross and I don't want to eat it...

Looking forward to seeing what they come up with. Dare I hope for a new Kid Icarus? But an original IP might be just as good.

Metroid will be back in a few years, probably, whether retro does it or not. There's demand for it, so they can't hold off on it for too much longer.

I don't think anyone was angry over trainers in Pokemon X and Y saying things like "Your power level, it's over 9000!" or "I can has battle?" In fact people were joking about it as far as I could tell. Why are people mad over this? It's pretty subtle, it might not even BE a Doge reference.

Besides, the Doge dog is very adorable so if there was going to be a meme in a Zelda game I'm glad they went with that one.

So many Meebs, so little time...

I like to have physical copies. I only buy retail games digitally if they are on sale (or free, in the case of the Club Nintendo games for coins early this year). If retail games were only digital for full price, I would buy even fewer games than I do now...But I would still cave and pay a full $60 for the likes of Zelda or Kid Icarus.

If they do go all-digital, games had better become cheaper...

That's possibly the worst game title I've seen since Tales of Legendia. Rpgs have weird titles...Bravely Default...Final Fantasy, when the series seemingly never ends...Beyond The Beyond...Tactics ogre...

That's supposed to be a deal? I'm really only interested in buying Ryu and Roy, and maybe two or three Mii costumes. Great big pass. (I still don't have the wii u version so I'm holding off on dlc...)

Link is the prettiest Princess.

I updated the dream address one last time, deleted my save file, and sold my copy a while back. Sooooo I guess I truly abandoned my town by reducing it to a dreamy vision.

@Epona14 Crap, remind me to never do any sort of pokemon card giveaways from now on. Guess I'll just sell my unwanted doubles on ebay. :/

I am sort of ashamed to be a pokemon fan now...This is horrible. Shame on you, Pokemon Company.

I voted for the Inklings a long time ago, but they got mii costumes so I feel my vote is wasted.

"Nintendo—with great respect and pride—is a toy company, and always has been."

Do love hotels count as toys? Well, I guess you could bring toys to them. If you know what I mean.

I love the art style and the idea of taming and riding monsters into battle had me excited. But I didn't know that it would be a TURN-based rpg. I don't like regular old turn-based games unless it has Pokemon in the title. And it's not the turn-based battles I like about Pokemon, either.

I have Xenoblade X and Yoshi's Wooly World to look forward to. But I have backlogs. And I have still yet to buy Pikmin 3, Mario Kart and Smash Bros Wii U, so I have plenty of Wii U games to crack open for a while. Xenoblade X will likely sponge up twice the amount of playtime than all of those other ones combined, too. That's my big game of the year right there. Can't. Freaking. Wait.

@Jason723 Haha, yep. I thought it looked okay until everyone else started moaning about it. But maybe I'm just fine with outdated graphics, period. Xenoblade Chronicles, Shadow of the Colossus and and the original Wind Waker still look very pretty to me.

@night Stop throwing "autistic" around like an insult and eat a Snickers.

Well, better a delayed game than an unpolished-and-unfinished-at-launch game.

But, what's the gameplay like? The only gameplay we actually saw here was a pikachu and a charizard standing in a green field and a pokeball flying at them...

And where are all the post gen 1 pokes? I want cyndaquil as my starter.

CAN. NOT. WAIT.
...............
CAN. NOT. AFFORD.

UK got that as a pre-order bonus and I got nothing for pre-ordering? No fair. I want that pokeball.

If his head weren't bigger than his body, I might want it. That's Toon Link's shtick.

Please come to America. NoA please localize the pikachu invasion.

Ooh, send the limited edition my way across the pond too, please!

Muramasa is such a pretty game that it's worth playing JUST to look at the art in motion. But it's also a pretty good game.

I need it I need it I need it I need it I nee---(Looks at price)---Um, I don't need it that much.

I don't even like cars and I m considering buying a few of these.

I'm much more interested in the reshiram. I would buy that separately.

Can I watch Fullmetal Alchemist Brotherhood on it? I have been wanting to re-watch that show, but I sold my dvd set a couple of years ago.

GOOD LUCK, may the goddess of light shine upon you today!

I would have never guessed that was supposed to be an umbreon...

@Priceless_Spork She's the Goddess of Light, the Ruler of the Sky, the Troll to end all trolls....Lady Palutena! (From the Kid Icarus series, Pit's boss, basically.)

@TwilightAngel You must have gotten a really bad one, or I got a really good one. I really like all the detail and sculpting on mine. Her eyes were kind of derpy, so I scraped them off and painted new ones on. I think she's almost perfect now.

I already got mine from Japan. That was a good move, since I'll be at work all day friday.

@Aromaiden She looks much better in person, though here eyes are slightly derpy on a lot of figures.

@Mona-Reggie You know, I don't think I even finished the Looker missions.

@Porky When I say fourth gen, I mean the actual fourth gen (platinum, pearl, and diamond). Heartgold and Soulsilver were fantastic, however. They were during fourth gen and have the great fourth gen mechanics(That physical-special split was long overdue at that point!), but I don't consider them true fourth gen. They are still gen 2. And I deeply regret losing my copy of Soulsilver...

Let's agree to disagree. I've have way more fun with the gen 6 games and gen 3 remakes than with any other pokemon games. There are so many more pokemon who got fantastic new abilities and forms that actually made them good! And hopefully they keep giving new forms and abilities to certain pokemon. (Fingers crossed for Arcanine!) I never played Pokemon for the story, by the way. The only story as far as I'm concerned is my journey with my 'mons! Which is why I'd enjoy it if they were to do a more loosely presented story in future games. But the real meat of the game is training, breeding, and wifi battling for me. I don't give a hoot about the in-game story, I just want to be a pokemon trainer!

@WreckItRyan "Porky Pilgrim vs. The World." Lol, I dunno...
