Hope to see some of the ballot winners. I'd say the Inkling has the best shot as far as first parties are concerned. Third parties probably got more votes though.
Minecraft was one of those games I always thought should be on the Wii U, but I never would've played it. The lack of anything GamePad-related pretty much ruined it, and it's a bit late.
Can't say I'm surprised though. Honestly, the review makes it sounds like it deserves a 4 at best. Thanks, @JonWahlgren! Some parts in this review made me laugh out loud!
Still way better than Mario Kart 8's roster for inclusion of Bowser Jr. alone. Now we just need Nabbit and it gets my "certified awesome roster" award.
I preferred checkpoints to slopes anyway. That was the first glaring absence in the game to me. Will checkpoints be required? Because if not, then I doubt anyone will even put them. People like to see others suffer.
I hope so! Anything that shows Disney doesn't hate the prequels is good in my book. Also, I love Darth Maul so even better!
EDIT: Regarding TFU thing, I may get a lotta hate for this, but I found the HD versions better by far. There were way too many unnecessary changes in the Wii version that it took me out of the experience. Having the first level at night for no reason, dialogue was more rushed (not sure why they had to redo it, etc. I don't understand why they couldn't've just kept the same level design. Or maybe I just have bad feelings towards it because it froze and never worked again.
Most likely a Wii download. And even if it is a remake of some sort, then Nintendo is doing this way too early. What is this, the generation of Zelda remakes? They've already remade 3 of 5 3D games!
I think every time you play a level (not just complete it) you should be able to rank the level's difficulty on a scale of 1 to 5 stars or something so people can get a general idea of how hard it is.
Eesh. Quite a big price for what should be a sort of deluxe edition. Still hoping for an NX edition with all the content from both versions + DLC to tie people over until Smash 5.
They definitely need to do a sizable price cut this holiday but I'm not sure how much they even care at this point. I'm sure the NX is probably one of their top priorities at the moment.
I think Shovel Knight would be a good fit for Smash if they made him properly. There's definitely some NINTENDO characters that deserve to be in more than him though.
This game is looking amazing! I hope to see even more characters to get announced!
@japongt I'm not sure graphics are a contributing factor to many peoples' 3DS purchases. Also, this is more content for the Wii U version as well since you can transfer characters.
Though I know a lot of time and effort went into them, these stages are kinda getting annoying. Especially when half the stages in the 100 Mario Challenge consist of them.
Cool. Not that I can use them though because I don't have an NFC transmitter or whatever the heck it is.
Also, people, if you wanted a new Paper Mario, you shouldn't be directing that hate towards the M&L franchise. They're two different series and apparently Intelligent Systems doesn't care about their franchise more than AlphaDream does theirs. Complain to IS, not AD.

Nice because that's what I am! 😉

Re: Poll: Are You Excited About Minecraft: Wii U Edition, Or Is It Too Late?
Minecraft was one of those games I always thought should be on the Wii U, but I never would've played it. The lack of anything GamePad-related pretty much ruined it, and it's a bit late.
Should've come a lot sooner, imo.
Re: Minecraft on Wii U Won't Feature Inventory Management on the GamePad Screen
spits out water
That was the whole point of a Minecraft Wii U version!
Re: Microsoft's Phil Spencer "Would Be Happy" To See Nintendo Games On Xbox One
In his dreams.
Re: Minecraft Finally Digs Its Way Onto the Wii U eShop on 17th December
claps So much for being owned by Microsoft.
Re: Review: Mario & Luigi: Paper Jam Bros. (3DS)
Such...a...long...wait...
Re: Review: Xenoblade Chronicles X (Wii U)
Impressive score. I may pick it up eventually.
Re: A Play Set Based on The Force Awakens is Coming to Disney Infinity 3.0 on 18th December
*A New Hope rehash would be a better choice of words than The Force Awakens.
Re: Review: Animal Crossing: Amiibo Festival (Wii U)
The target audience shouldn't give the game a free pass for being terrible.
Re: Review: Animal Crossing: Amiibo Festival (Wii U)

Can't say I'm surprised though. Honestly, the review makes it sounds like it deserves a 4 at best. Thanks, @JonWahlgren! Some parts in this review made me laugh out loud!
Re: Review: Mario Tennis: Ultra Smash (Wii U)
Seems like there definitely needs to be more content here. Unfortunately, I don't think this is a game Nintendo would do DLC for...
Great character roster though!
Re: Review: The Peanuts Movie: Snoopy's Grand Adventure (Wii U)
Apparently, there is now a movie game as good as a Zelda game! And some thought this day would never come!
Re: Nintendo Download: 19th November (North America)
I'm assuming Phantom Hourglass and Spirit Tracks will be coming in about 6 months.
Re: Take a Look at Nintendo's Game Awards 2015 Nominees
Splatoon has to win at least one of three of those awards.
Re: Video: Check Out a Graphical Comparison for The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess HD
I can't believe Nintendo would put this much effort into a remake. The only difference I can see are the characters except Link and Wolf Link.
Re: Final Fantasy's Cloud Is Set To Cause Some Strife In Super Smash Bros. On Wii U And 3DS
Cool character, but not a series I'm interested in. Can't wait until the broadcast!
EDIT: Guys, Cloud wasn't a ballot character. He couldn't've been made (along with his stage) in the span of a month.
Re: Preview: Crossing Over With Mario & Luigi: Paper Jam Bros.
I knew Mario & Luigi wouldn't disappoint. Shame you can't choose a bonus stat anymore, though I guess the new additions will help balance it out.
Re: The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess Is Receiving A High-Definition Face Lift
What face lift? It looks the exact same!
Re: Site News: Nintendo Life Turns 10 Today
Happy birthday, Nintendo Life! Can't wait to see the new design!
Re: Video: The New Animal Crossing: amiibo Festival Trailer is Seeking Happy Players
What a waste of HD models. New Leaf it is!
@NintendoFan990 Your comment cracked me up! Thanks!
Re: Sprixie Joins the Ranks in Mario Tennis: Ultra Smash
Still way better than Mario Kart 8's roster for inclusion of Bowser Jr. alone. Now we just need Nabbit and it gets my "certified awesome roster" award.
Re: This Is How Nintendo's First Smartphone Game Miitomo Will Work
I'm not the biggest fan of giving away my personal info and messaging people I don't even know so this may not be for me.
Re: Super Mario Maker Gets Mid-Level Checkpoints and More in Upcoming Update
I preferred checkpoints to slopes anyway. That was the first glaring absence in the game to me. Will checkpoints be required? Because if not, then I doubt anyone will even put them. People like to see others suffer.
Re: Sega: Recent Sonic Games Haven't Been "Acceptable", Looking To Replicate The Past In Future Outings
They may say it, but will they do it?
Re: Talking Point: As Rumours Come and Go the Desperation for a Nintendo Direct Grows
My hopes were just up too high after seeing that Nintendo Direct logo. Curse you!
JUST GIVE US ONE NOW! I EXPECT IT TO BE TWO HOURS AFTER HOW LONG THE WAIT HAS BEEN!
Re: Red Fly Studio is Trying to Resurrect the Cancelled Nintendo Exclusive Darth Maul Game
I hope so! Anything that shows Disney doesn't hate the prequels is good in my book. Also, I love Darth Maul so even better!

Re: Nintendo Network ID Going Offline Next Week During General Maintenance
No, it's probably wicked. Something WICKED this way comes.
Re: Sources Suggest Nintendo NX Is A Fusion Of Home And Mobile Hardware Powered By "Industry-Leading" Tech
Awesome if it's true (I hope so). Home console and handheld hybrid along with "industry-leading graphics" is just what I wanted the NX to be!
Re: Rumour: Dataminers Dig Up eShop Listings For Super Mario Galaxy, Zelda: Skyward Sword And Metroid: Other M
Wait, hold on. The data's already on there but Nintendo's not releasing it?!
Re: Rumour: Data Miner Uncovers Evidence Of Twilight Princess On Nintendo's Wii U eShop
Most likely a Wii download. And even if it is a remake of some sort, then Nintendo is doing this way too early. What is this, the generation of Zelda remakes? They've already remade 3 of 5 3D games!
Re: Takashi Tezuka Gives His Opinion on Hard Levels Made with Super Mario Maker
I think every time you play a level (not just complete it) you should be able to rank the level's difficulty on a scale of 1 to 5 stars or something so people can get a general idea of how hard it is.
Re: Super Smash Bros. 'Digital Complete Pack' Combines Game and DLC for Wii U and 3DS
Eesh. Quite a big price for what should be a sort of deluxe edition. Still hoping for an NX edition with all the content from both versions + DLC to tie people over until Smash 5.
Re: Editorial: A Wii U Price Cut is Still Worthwhile Despite Its Ongoing Woes
They definitely need to do a sizable price cut this holiday but I'm not sure how much they even care at this point. I'm sure the NX is probably one of their top priorities at the moment.
Re: Apparent Confirmation Emerges of Shovel Knight for Super Smash Bros., Denied in Vain By Yacht Club Games
I think Shovel Knight would be a good fit for Smash if they made him properly. There's definitely some NINTENDO characters that deserve to be in more than him though.
Re: Nintendo Has "Moved On" From Game Boy Games on the 3DS Virtual Console
Actually, it seems like they've moved from the 3DS Virtual Console period.
Re: Hyrule Warriors Legends Site Shows Off Skull Kid and Phantom Ganon
This game is looking amazing! I hope to see even more characters to get announced!
@japongt I'm not sure graphics are a contributing factor to many peoples' 3DS purchases. Also, this is more content for the Wii U version as well since you can transfer characters.
Re: Review: Chibi-Robo!: Zip Lash (3DS)
Not a great Q4 for Nintendo thus far. Not expecting Mario Tennis or Amiibo Festival to get anything more than a 7 or 8.
Re: Random: Isabelle Still Seems Upset At Negligent Animal Crossing: New Leaf Mayors
Once I abandoned my town for about five months and when I discovered all my favorite villagers had moved out, I just started a new one.
How can Isabelle keep up with so many disappearing mayors at once?!
Re: Random: Excitable Fans Face Disappointment When Nintendo Does Twitter Wrong
What an odd case of overreacting.
Re: Video: This Super Mario Maker Player Captures The Frustration of Surprise 'Don't Move' Stages
Though I know a lot of time and effort went into them, these stages are kinda getting annoying. Especially when half the stages in the 100 Mario Challenge consist of them.
Re: Skull Kid is Confirmed as a Playable Character in Hyrule Warriors Legends
Cool although I was hoping for Happy Mask Salesman. Can't wait to play it!
Re: Nintendo Drops Out of Interbrand 'Best Global Brands' Top 100
sigh It's a wonder Nintendo was holding on even in the last couple of years. 2014, 100th place? Wow.
Re: AÂ Satoru Iwata Memorial Custom amiibo is Being Sold for Charity
@Not_Soos I never even knew he updated his Mii. I agree. They should've done his older one.
It's a sweet gesture though. Does it actually work?
Re: The Next Splatfest in North America is About How You Like to Travel
As much as I love the picture of the plane, I am not that fond of traveling that way so I may have to go with cars.
Re: Mario & Luigi: Paper Jam Will Support 18 amiibo Figures
Cool. Not that I can use them though because I don't have an NFC transmitter or whatever the heck it is.
Also, people, if you wanted a new Paper Mario, you shouldn't be directing that hate towards the M&L franchise. They're two different series and apparently Intelligent Systems doesn't care about their franchise more than AlphaDream does theirs. Complain to IS, not AD.
Re: Nintendo Attempts to Show the Fun Side of Animal Crossing: amiibo Festival as amiibo Bundles Are Confirmed
No. The only good thing these spin-offs are doing is making me want a main series game now.
Re: Super Mario Maker Passes One Million Sales
Great news! Must say I'm not surprised though.
Re: Video: Super Mario Maker and Wind Waker Star in Super Smash Bros. DLC
Yes! I was hoping for Pirate Ship to make its return! (kinda was hoping it'd be in the WWHD style, but still good to have it)
Re: Retailers In North America Merge Wii U & 3DS Library Under One Nintendo Banner
It actually kinda makes the section more noticeable so I'm fine with this change. I look forward to seeing this the next time I go somewhere.
