Never played a Lego game but have 4 family members who are looking forward to this

Voted for a 3DS discount download (PIX3D) - will be getting Mario Kart 8 but on disc!

Much as I like playing with the Mii characters it would be nice to have a character specific tournament. vote Daisy!!!!

Good stuff. I am enjoying these and have voted already

Cool. a certain pick up for me

Great. Bought the season pass day 1 so will be downloading later!
@Rawk_Hawk - agree completely!

I bought this and don't regret it at all. Plenty of gameplay to keep me going
I love puzzle titles so.....

Nice one. Can we force a character based one next week please??

more picross

Wish the 3dsl was getting more love. Played more Mario Golf than Andre else since it came out!

Enjoyed last weeks and just voted. Maybe next week exclude Mii's from the vote - just a thought. Will have a go later

Can't wait

But conservative but all good. Thank you

It's such a great game I don't understand it personally. To many people playing free rubbish on their smart phones I guess!

@ThomasBW84 hi just wondered when the voted for tournament will start - or have I missed the article????

Fancy Kirby but will get retail - May wait a while as have backlog though and am addicted to Mario Golf at the moment

@ThomasBW84 - if people are willing it might be good to have a post linking 3DS user name with Nintendo Life user name so we all know who's who!?!?
Just a thought.
Just posted a score and great to see 87 in total having had a go

Good review. Now I know what it's all about and won't be picking it up!

Should be an option to include/exclude star characters too???
I'll be having a bash at this later

Shame because it's an amazing game. Loving it so far

I played the handicap tournament and then set about the tournaments via the single player menu before tackling the ones in the basement. Very addicting trying to beat my scores and improve my ranking - getting into trophy positions etc
Very good game and can see this becoming my second biggest time sink behind animal crossing

Can't wait - please come to the EU. I still play the PSN version on my PS3 every now and again. Please hurry up

Been debating this so with a price drop......it will join the download queue on Thursday along with Golf and Galaga!

What a great detailed review. Love the sound of the on-line. Was sold anyway but......

Sounds good - I have never played a Kirby game before so this one is for me. Got to wait until the 16th though as I'm in the UK. On the plus side that gives me plenty of time on Mario Golf first

Golf = day 1 download.
Kirby = day 1 pick up

as for the rest not so sure!

erm - all those that are saying you'd use the gas to get the game, the article says you can order at BestBuy.com which presumably means it is delivered to you thus not using the gas at all?!?!?

Never played a Kirby game in my life but picking the new one up in May for sure

@unrandomsam Why?? Like @andrea987 said it's not like spending money gets you anywhere different - just quicker. So what is the problem??

Think I'll be giving some of those national sides a go

Yes Yes Yes - come to England ASAP please please!!!

can't wait can't wait
Sounds awesome!

"It's day-one DLC that often frustrates gamers, as it's clear that this isn't extra content developed after launch, but rather pre-prepared and ready along with the core game"

What a stupid thing to say - the game had to be ready at least 4(?) weeks before launch to get the cards "printed" and shipped world wide - the developers had all that time to finish off the "day one DLC" - so how could it have shipped with the game?? - think things through before pressing the keys please

Is anyone surprised by this?? No? That's what I thought

Can't wait for this. Loved the demo, so excited

Great content for the full priced game and some awesome DLC. Day one download and season pass for me

Great review, think I might pick that up if of course it comes out on the EU store

Oh to live in the US - pretty excited for MK8 and would love to try it sooner

@XCWarrior - agreed

Excellent - like the idea of "post a score by the deadline" style tournaments. And if they keep rolling them it will be awesome. I wasn't going to bother with the demo (out today for me) but I think I have changed my mind and am going to download it. So can't wait for this

Think MK8 will improve Wii U hardware sales!!

lack of multi-player sounds like a serious omission for this sort of game. Other than that nothing in the review put me off and some of the things slanted as "negatives" sound OK to me. Might have to pick this up if I have enough credit left after Nintendo Pocket Football Club and Mario Golf

Well wasn't sure at first but the more I read about it........
Love AC New Leaf and just downloaded Harvest Moon: A New Beginning from the eShop. I never ever used to play games like these and now look at me

@zool I agree - I thought Yoshi was dealt with a little bit harshly by reviewers generally. I found it to be very entertaining.

I love my 3DS so news like this is a little worrying. But I do think some announcements are needed for what will come out in the holiday season. Not that much in the pipeline.
As for the Wii U - we do own one and everyone is looking forward to Mario Kart 8 and the wife is playing the new DK game to death but other than that......

So how about some comparisons to other titles for those of us that don't know???

Double bummer - already got them all and live in the UK

@Windy so you'll pass over a game you were excited about because you don't like the fact there is some extra content going to be available that is, at the end of the day, completely optional?? I don't understand that view point at all - unless there is some evidence that the full game is short on content to accommodate the DLC.
Don't get me wrong I'm not a huge fan but extra courses seem like the perfect DLC to me. That's me anyway

Damn region lock - it's so stupid and pointless. I was hoping to get my hands on this but have to make do with Harvest Moon A New Beginning instead I think.

Bit bummed that there is no sign of an EU release date. Damn region locks ( used to import plenty of US DS/PS3 games ).
