Aw, too bad I didn't spot the submission topic in time. It would've been fun to watch Alex try to beat my wall jumping level on stream.

This poll needs a "This update completely broke online play for me, so it sucks!" option. Because that's what happened to me.

I don't know much Japanese, but the first words after the date and time are "atarashi buki", or "new weapon." It's called the Sharp Marker, obviously, though who knows if that'll be the name in other territories.

Apparently "Cuban Bomb" is the Japanese name for the Suction Bombs, so there you go. And the special is the Bomb Rush.

I'd play the hell out of that hack...

I want them all, but more importantly, call me when a Samus figure is spotted.

Great looking figure, but too rich for my blood. Also, the Dark Suit rocks so much harder than the Light Suit.

Honestly, I'm much more enticed by the Samus figma, which looks fantastic, is way more affordable and is fully poseable.

Other than the fact that Mikau should've represented the Zoras instead of Ruto (and maybe Darmani as the Goron rep), I'm loving these new screenshots. The moon can't be the only thing representing Majora's Mask, Tecmo Koei!

If this game truly doesn't give us any MM representatives, hopefully the eventual sequel (assuming it sells well) will...

@randomous: Boo, that picture cuts me out! I tied for 10th with Tigus, damn it!

I'll probably take two screenshots of the top 10 and then Photoshop them together so that I'm in the shot...

@Tigus: Last I checked, you and I were tied for sixth place. Let's see where we end up once it's all said and done, though...

I encountered far less triple red shells than blue shells during my races, so blue shells are what I'm pissed about.

Also, screw the coin item so much...

Well, my 32 races are over and I managed to accumulate 377 points total, which left me tied for sixth place. Definitely a better showing for me than the last tourney, where I barely missed nabbing the twentieth spot.

By the way, to those of you saying blue shells are rare in MK8, I say: Bull. Of the first five or so races that I ran, I got hit by a blue shell in all except one of them. In fact, I'd say I was hit by a blue shell in about half of my races, maybe more, some of which cost me first place. No offense, but if you think blue shells are rare in MK8, what's really rare is you being in first place. Also, I love how the CPU racers cheat by recovering instantly when they hit obstacles. You save those five seconds that we regular schmoes have to take to recover, CPU racers, you deserve them.

Well, that was a bit more of a rant than I originally intended. Anyway, this was pretty fun, blue shells and CPU cheating aside, and I look forward to the next tourney. Hopefully that one will do away with the CPUs entirely, or at least lower their difficulty, because I'm sure most of the blue shells I ran into today came from them.

I'm not as big a One Piece fan as I used to be (though I still follow the series), but judging from the Game Informer preview and this review, this seems like a game that I'd have fun playing. Too bad it's Wii U download-only and the DL itself is 15 gigs in size...

Waluigi is ready...

@Nimious: Because Fresh Prince of Bel-Air...

I'd wear those Bowser shoes, since I love green and they're in a rather nice shade of it. I'd never pay that kind of price for shoes, though...

Uncle Reggie storms the stage and takes Jazz to the venue's exit and proceeds to toss him out on his ass.

Honestly, though, I was underwhelmed by both performances, but less so by Jazzy Jeff's, so he wins.

I've been wanting to try this game out to see how it plays before taking the plunge, so I'd love to have an NA code, if anyone still has one to spare.

Since I keep missing them when they come up here, I'll leave my e-mail here so that those with a spare code can send it to me if they're so inclined: [email protected]

I'd love to see Nintendo remake Majora's Mask, because my Collector's disc is scratched and has the tendency to freeze while I'm playing it, which has resulted in plenty of lost progress, thanks to the way saves work in MM.

A sequel would also be fantastic, but--just like a sequel to Super Mario Sunshine--I doubt it'll happen...

I wound up with a total of 348 points, which would've been almost 500, if certain people (Fill and Michael) hadn't gotten ridiculously lucky on item draws when I was about to finish first on at least three different tracks. We'll see how the next tournament goes, I guess.

Anyway, forget patching "fire hopping", what needs to be patched is drawing coins from item blocks, especially when you're already maxed out. It's a hard slap in the face to be in first place for all three laps, only to have it taken from you on the finish line approach because the item blocks keep giving offensive/defensive items to every racer except you.

I would think this site would be quite familiar with Man at Arms, since he's already crafted the Master Sword in the past (which I'm pretty sure was covered here). Oh, and Chrom's Falchion, too, like Fishie mentioned. I knew I was forgetting something...

Also, for those of you wondering, he clarified in a recap video that he can't sell any of the pieces he makes on the show due to copyright reasons, so they remain on display at his shop.

Downloading it now. Thanks for the tip, NL...

It's the perfect opportunity to release the third Chibi-Robo! game outside of Japan, Nintendo. Do it...

Samus Fett! I love it...

Sword strikes and gunshots that are ineffective? Yup, that sounds like One Piece...

The possibilities for the gamepad functions are plentiful, and I'm quite hyped for GTA V, so having on Wii U would be amazing. Make it happen, Rockstar...

Samus needs more votes...

I'd love to see a Samus one...

Wow, I actually won... too bad I'm a few states away from California. Oh, well...

My body is ready for Wii U because gaming is what I Nintendo.

(I'd like an adult pass if I'm selected.)

I played this again to 100% about a year ago, and it's just as fun as I remembered it. The camera took some getting used to again, but once you have it down, you're all set. The FLUDD-less levels are the best levels in the game and the atmosphere of Isle Delfino is amazing. This is easily my favorite Mario game of all time, 2D or 3D.

Though finding all the blue coins was a bit tedious, every time I did find one, I felt a sense of satisfaction, especially since most of the final ones are hidden in very obscure places that you have to think outside the box to find.

Damn, after reading this article, I'm feeling like starting up a new file...

@Korbin64: My comment always said Waluigi, so obviously you misread. Don't worry, it happens...

@Philip_J_Reed: Hear! Hear!

Green is better than red; tall is better than short; Luigi is better than Mario.

I wouldn't classify Luigi as "suffering," though. Sure, he might not be as famous as his shorter brother, but he still has his own game series. If you really want suffering, then Waluigi fits the description to a tee. Give us a Waluigi platforming series, Nintendo!

Very nice, much better than the last one...

Good for you, James, and good luck with your new endeavor...

Kelly Johnson is hot...

Yeah, that's the only positive thing about this video. Now if it had been anything like Fallout: Nuka Break, then it'd be worth watching...

Wait, I though the Pro controller got redesigned to not look like a re-skinned 360 controller. Like so...

Other than that, great write-up, Corbie...

And to answer the question: Wii U is most definitely for Mii...

That was awesome. It gets me even more pumped for Tuesday. The only thing I disliked was the Pro controller looking like the 360's controller. Not that I don't like the controller, but I would've preferred something a bit more unique. It's a minor gripe, though...

A Samus icon among the other game icons? Hint hint? Please let it be true! More Metroid, please, Nintendo!

Also, Iwata's English was damn good...

@MeowGravy: Rock on...

Iwata: "On the count of three, give me a 'Whoa, Bundy!'"
Everyone: "Whoooooa, Bundy!"

I did enjoy Super Mario Bros. 2 and I wouldn't mind a sequel, but I'd rather see Mario return to Isle Delfino or to Peach's castle first...

Come on Waluigi outfit...

Give us that rumored Emerald Green 3DS, Nintendo! Now that's a good-looking handheld...

Call me when that sweet (rumored) Luigi's Mansion Emerald Green 3DS shows up...

Apparently Rayman: Legends will need to come with a sticker of its own—"May cause constipation"...

My body shall be ready...

Good interview. I'll be downloading their work once it releases...

@iamthatoneguy: Glad to see that you did answer the question regarding why you picked the classic Varia Suit, as opposed to the much cooler (in my opinion) Dark Suit. Good answer, the classics do have a certain charm. Also, Samus at a gallery sounds amazing...

@KaiserGX: Hear, hear!

So even Kirby takes precedence over Metroid? Well, ****, thanks a lot, Nintendo...

Then again, after the negative—and undeserved—reception Other M got, I'm not expecting to see any new games in the series for a while (except for Samus' token appearance in the new Smash Bros. game, of course)... =|

I loved the original and the Wii spin-off, so I'll definitely pick this one up eventually...
