Tip for anyone not sure on this game, just wait. Skylanders games have a habit of becoming really cheap. Just check your amazon and you'll see. So I'd recommend waiting for awhile and grabbing the game cheap, especially if you already have a toys to life series you collect.
@123akis Yeah if I'm walking to a local shop I'll probably play the game. But I'm not going on random walks to catch Pokemon. Plus spend my money in the game.
Nope, not giving the game any of my money, turns out a quick drive through town gives me a ton of Pokémon. I'm always more than happy to get both versions of Pokémon (I have no friends who get them really) and plus I collect the games. Even the limited editions. Pokemon GO A just hasn't impressed me and is nowhere near as fun as the main games/quality wise. With all its bugs/my enjoyment isn't that high either. Oh well obviously a ton of people do deem the game worthy of their money, good for them.
For a free game I think it's pretty amazing. Good thing in Europe the servers are gonna carry over to the full game. The couple times I've played with my brothers locally was a blast haha. Online is also very fun. Although I'm interested in what kind of story the full game will have and how enemies will work. Definitely getting this over the Pokemon GO Plus which I have decided isn't worth the money by the time it comes out. I guarantee I'll be able to find this game for under £35.00 so let the choice be yours. A full game with online and blast ball. Or a small device for a 2 month old app thats only purpose is to let you put your phone in sleep mode. You decide.
New villains sounds pretty meh like team flare, at least these ones have more variety. Still I don't think they will best team Plasma as the best villains, or Cyrus as one of the coolest. New Pokemon look cool though. Games looks excellent so far.
I feel bad for the game, if it was just called Federation Force it'd probably be pretty looked forward too. It's only because of Nintendo's incompetence to make a Metroid game the fans have asked for the fans are retaliating against the game. Hopefully with the NX Nintendo will right their wrongs and it'll have a platformer and 3D Metroid SAMUS game.
Wasn't gonna get the game but after seeing that mousepad...... Instant buy.
I kid. I actually really like blast ball. Had a ton of fun with my brothers and online is pretty nice too. I like the gameplay and don't have that much of an attachment to the Metroid series to complain like a real fan.
Looks really nice. I got my animal crossing new 3ds xl and I love it to bits. So that combined with the fact I don't have infinite money means I wouldn't pick this up.
@Tsuchinoko @SpykeKat @nhSnork @Dogorilla @BensonUii Here's the official statement from Nintendo's FAQ "Note that even after the Nintendo DSi Shop closes, most Nintendo DSiWare will continue to be sold in Nintendo eShop on Nintendo 3DS family systems."

I heard Warioware Snapped might be? Although I'm pretty sure it's on 3ds. Hope this all helps!
@rjejr @JaxonH I'll be getting both the NX and PSVR but I'd definitely take the NX if I had to chose one. Nintendo has always been my favourite gaming company, evem with the Wii U not performing to greatly, it's still been an incredible experience. PsVR will definitely be a lot of fun and is pretty much my only way to play VR without spending a ton of money, but I'm sure the platform I'll be playing most is NX.
I think it'd be a perfect fit for the 3ds, Vita would also suit it very well. It'll be interesting to see if Sega decides to put this game on a mobile platform like plenty of other 2D sonic games. Anyway I'll be able to pick it up on Ps4 or Xbox one.
I'll probably grab it on Ps4 or Xbox one then. But I'm still shocked Wii U even got the game. It'll be interesting to see texture comparisons between the Wii U and other platforms!
Difference between this and the vita is that the Vita was a handheld, which was trying to be like a console. I loved it for that. However my worry is that developers won't be able to put their games on NX and I don't want another Wii U scenario. Hopefully the NX will be able to match the PS4 and Xbone in power, or at least well enough for it to be able to handle the games on current gen systems. It's all rumours so we'll see how it plays out.
I love it, I find it ridiculously fun. The fact in EU it is basically a part of the game and we can still play it when the game comes out is incredible. Heck I feel as if that was an accident haha.
@SLIGEACH_EIRE Actually I care, Serebii is one of the best if not the best Pokemon site I've ever seen. Even if you don't like Pokemon and therefore a lack of interest in articles to do with it, you still seem to go ahead and comment something. Please in the future don't comment things such as "Nobody Cares" because as I've just said, I care. @Serebii basically confirmed the website could be pretty broken, which in my eyes. I see as useful and I care.

Re: Report Points to Nintendo NX Manufacturing Ramping Up in Q4 2016
@bubby444 Nintendo should not use outdated hardware. X2 could be amazing. Plus it'd be more likely to support third party games.
Re: Report Points to Nintendo NX Manufacturing Ramping Up in Q4 2016
Please be X2. Don't use X1 when X2 is already if not almost available to use. Nintendo would be shooting themselves in the foot.

I'm certainly sure Nintendo will have it's own hardware along with Nvidia that will support VC very well, question is whether they do the VC at all.

Re: Renegade Kid Has Kindly Offered To Port Sonic Mania To Nintendo 3DS
I think it'd be a perfect fit for the 3ds, Vita would also suit it very well. It'll be interesting to see if Sega decides to put this game on a mobile platform like plenty of other 2D sonic games. Anyway I'll be able to pick it up on Ps4 or Xbox one.
