It's a special game for me as I am from the province of Quebec, where this game was made. The fact that it presents culture from Quebec is quite rare. Sadly, it loads way too often and the screen freezes. I'd like them to patch the game eventually. If you're from Quebec, this game is a must.
For me the thing that was bugging me the most was the fact that the world record times were accomplished with glitches, where people would not do real laps. That's what got me to stop playing waiting for the update. It does not appear to have been fixed.
@TheRealThanos I finally got your answer as to where the dinosaur comes from. It was from a cancelled game called Creator. I had to look at my old Nintendo Power magazines.
Nintendo 1 h ยท Mario and Sonic are back for another round of intense competition in Mario & Sonic at the Rio 2016 Olympic Games, launching for Nintendo 3DS on 3/18 and Wii U later this year!
Grrrrr I'm trying to buy the Zelda one on the GameStop website, but I keep getting error messages. It'd better not be already sold out. It would be so ridiculous the repeat the exact same mistake as last year when It was sold out way too quickly. It would be so dumb...
I am going to EB Games (Game Stop here in Canada) early tomorrow morning. There is no way I am going to miss the Zelda special edition again. I was so mad last year. I am a collector, so I really want it.
Oops. There is now an error message also when you check the Current network status. It even says fail... java.io.IOException: Server returned HTTP response code: 407 for URL: http://www.nintendo.co.jp/netinfo/en_US/index.html ##fail##
My mom bought my 5 year old nephew a 2DS. I got her to buy him an eShop card instead of buying a physical game. He's still waiting to play with his christmas gift...
It took me more than 20 hours to get everything in Super Mario 3D Land. It was not short at all. Just beating Bowser is not completing a Mario game. Getting all the coins is completing a Mario Game.
Did they leave the real names in the game? They were taken out in the Wii VC release. It makes a big difference. You should have talked about in your review and you should have used screenshots from the altered game. Otherwise, great review as usual.
And the new games don't even use the Gamepad in a new way. No game comes close to ZombiU a year after launch. Mario Kart 8, Super Mario and DK are all out on 3DS... Really disappointed.
I don't understand why they did not implement motion controls for scanning, just like in Zombi U. The option should have been there. It just feels lazy.
I don't understand why Namco and Nintendo don't release Pac-Man VS. It would be perfect with the gamepad as it is very similar to Mario Chase from Nintendo Land.
It is one of my favorite 3DS games. I finished every single level and loved it. But I don't know if I am willing to buy it again to play 20 new levels...
It really is a great game. Its short length actually makes it replayable, because I like to beat it again from time to time with a different character. The 3D effect also looks great.
It would have been easy to add analog triggers. I never understood why they left this out. I wonder if we could use the gamepad as a Wii wheel and control sticks for gas and break...
As you can tell from my avatar, I really want the Star Wars tables. I have Zen Pinball 3D and the first tables I will buy on Wii U will be the Star Wars iterations...
Sorry to say it but the character handles like a truck. Combos take forever. And jumping is so sluggish. Castlevania was more responsive than that... Battling a boss feels like I'm two seconds late. There's a definite disconnect between pressing a button and the action on screen. No buy for me.
I have a collection of all the Nintendo consoles... but I don't have this one (also referred to as the NES Top Loader). It is quite expensive on eBay and really hard to find. One day I will be able to get one...
Sadly I keep getting kicked out of the app because I momentarily lose my connection. My Wii U has been like this all the time. I wish the app would just wait for the connection instead of booting out...

I still hope a physical version will come out eventually
Re: Feature: Digital vs Physical - What Is Your Preference for Nintendo Switch?
This one is easy. Since I am a collector I prefer to buy physical, since a digital game has no value.

Re: Were It Not For Rare's Tim Stamper, Wave Race Would Have Featured Boats
@TheRealThanos This one is easy. It was the first footage of Zelda 64 as it was first called
Re: Were It Not For Rare's Tim Stamper, Wave Race Would Have Featured Boats
@TheRealThanos The first one is Buggy Boogie. For the second one I'd say this T-Rex belonged to Turok: Dinosaur Hunter

Since it's an eShop title, I don't understand why they don't release it in North America. I'd be interested

Re: Nintendo's Awesome Super Mario Maker Overview Announces New Features
I am a Super Mario collector and I am sad that there won't be a Special edition for North America. It really is an odd decision.
Re: Nintendo Confirms September amiibo Release Details for North America
NOA still has not announced the Super Mario Maker special edition. I really want it. It would be quite stupid to not offer it in North America.
Re: Video: Aqua Moto Racing Utopia Footage Breaks Some Waves
It looks pretty good. I hope it has gyroscopic controls like Mario Kart 8.
