Emblem

@Tender_Cutlet Miyamoto said Starfox is about a year away from completion, likely means it will be released next summer or fall.

@SecondServing If they didn't look so good I would have skipped them but they are high quality and the attention to detail is superb, I don't even collect figures but I'll be getting most of these for sure.

In terms of gameplay I'll use them because I'll have them but I think Nintendo really need to showcase their worth a lot more.

@Chris720 Everyone is doing Dark Fantasy at the moment, movies, tv shows and games are milking it like the 80-90's milked sci-fi and aliens. I watch GOT and i have Dragon Age pre-ordered but i don't want that in Zelda, at least not when everyone else is doing it.

I'm not a major Zelda fan so take my opinion with a little salt but this art style looks awesome to me and i've already pre-ordered it.

The multiplat game Sonic team are working on now is no doubt the movie tie in.

Disk all the way for me in anycase have you seen the cover art? Beautiful.

STARWAHL looks awesome to me for some reason lol.

"However, the Wii U version takes things to another level entirely, mixing HD artwork with pixel-based sprites." Really? Did you just spin a negative into a positive art direction? These are the same devs that said the would not give a HD update to a previous game as they believed sales wouldn't justify the cost (based on their last outing.)

Not a big Zelda game fan but I love the lore, tbh I'm more Intrested in Hyrule Warriors than Zelda U but I'll be getting both day 1 regardless.

@unrandomsam Yep historicaly Nintendo titles are known to have long legs.

Yep I'm also guessing were getting a demo or game announced for immediate download after E3, the line up otherwise means nothing for me for once.

@jdarrell My Afterglow Wii U Pro works like a dream and is beautiful .

I already have this on 3DS and its not really a double dip title even though i really liked it so i hope they add something new.

Not a puzzle guy but I'm interested in the user made content sharing, I know some people are going to make some amazing things.

Sadley this is incorrect, what's actually happening is fragmenting. Gaming on a whole is becoming more casual/cinematic while gameplay is becoming niche, within that niche yes they are correct and tougher games are becoming popular again.

Just look at any top 10 list of sales or game of the year, gamers choice etc. Outside of PC game lists your unlikely to find much games that are not interactive movies, sport or accessible shoot em ups.

You are aware this happens with all copyrighted material right? Not sure why Nintendo is singled out, this is Youtube policy to legally protect themselves and investors. Anything on Youtube that is not tagged or approved has just evaded notice. This is why so many videos are removed or have soundtracks missing.

Is this an upgrade of the Android/ios version? I hope they clean up the visuals before release as it looks very cheap at the moment.

I didn't like the show but i'm a sucker for strategy games and i'm interested in how the gamepad will be used.

MK9 was the best since MK3 so I have high hopes for this game dispute injustice being average outside of the awesome story mode.

I think I'll get this for PS4 if a Wii U version isn't on the books.

@ULTRA-64 No don't get COL yet it is quite boring unless you play on hard difficulty as the combat system is easy to bypass and cheat otherwise. On hard however you need to use the fairy to slow foes regularly and often timing is crucial and this brings the real excitement. You can swap difficulty mid game to see the glaring difference.

In anycase you'll need both thumbs to get the most out of it.

Edit: Good game but it has been over hyped so manage your expectations.

Strange to see people hating on the Koopalings, had a BBQ on Sunday and they are the main characters the younger ones played with. Its obvious these characters were included for this demographic.

In any case this game is awesome and I feel sorry for anyone who found it disappointing I really do.

@JakeShapiro Interesting, think I'll check this out when it gets patched.

An 8 with those major technical issues? So if those are patched is this game worthy of an 9 or 10?

The more i see the more i'm disappointed, i wanted this to be more than just modern Mega-man. All the talk of moving forward and not just copy pasting Mega-man has yet to be proven to me.

Well at least the rabid Mega-man fans all seem to love it and all the suggestions from fans so far have been pushing the project close to clone than originality.

@Suicune Hopefully that's the plan as I can't go back to wired. I suspect this option is for those of us who have GC pads hanging about.

I expect a third party will either way.

Yep definitely start at 50cc, havnt played for years but jumped in the deep end, needless to say all I managed to get was a silver and that was partly by luck. Best MK yet nostalgia aside.

Love me some Pikmin, more options the better .

GameCube VC E3 announcement is a possible.

Awesome, loving the discount for owners of the past games as well.

@Spanjard Take a look at the Afterglow pad, its see thru like the old N64 pads (can light up aswell) and its build quality is excellent. It also has trigger shoulder buttons and you can see the rumble feature as it works.

We have 2 afterglows and one official pad and i can honestly say i prefer the afterglow pad more, the battery is not quite 80 hours like the official pad though which is its only real con. In the UK its £20 cheaper than the official pad at Amazon, i'm sure its cheaper in other countries aswell.

This is a Nintendo site and Ubisoft have arguably shafted Nintendo fans since launch so its pretty obvious what these polls will reflect.

I suggest anyone who wants Watchdogs on PC read the customer reviews first, AMD cards are having lots of issues and a few older Nvidia ones also. I believe the PS4 version is likely to be the best for whatever that's worth. Personally i'll be skipping this game and waiting for Farcry 4 as its the only Ubisoft series i like.

I have MK8 order via Amazon but for those going digital don't forget you'll also get enough points for a £5 code via the deluxe digital deal.

Seems okay but would be better if they made got some sprites in there to make it look better. A little bit of time spent on presentation would no doubt move alot more copies.

@hosokawasamurai Thanks i lol'd.

Notch said he had no plans just a couple months ago, that means it wouldn't be coming until atleast 2016 which is too late for game sales and the Wii U since it'll likely be replaced in 2017/18.

I'all just leave this here http://m.imgur.com/a/mANBz

Link looks so beautiful they could so make this link female, that would be a nice change.

@Sakura One thing I've found is that a lot of younger female gamers moved on to 3DS as they matured. I wouldn't be surprised if the Wii generation of Nintendo fans are predominantly female.

@ULTRA-64 That sucks hope you recover soon. S&S, Colour Zen and Squids are touch screen games so you might be okay with them.

S&S HD and Squids Odessey for me pending reviews, the fact they are both ported from the IOS versions makes me hesitant but I'm optimistic also.

@Legodavid18 @Einherjar Totally agree, i'm an avid fan of Warriors and Armoured Core games, both are Japanese action games with niche game play and they are almost never reviewed favorably in the West dispite being critically acclaimed in Japan.

I also agree that if MK8 is getting so much flak i expect lots of critics and Zelda "fans" to hate this just for being what it is. I expect mixed reviews and lots of hate but i'm 99% sure ot'll be unfounded and i'll love it anyway.

@Peach64 Gundam has one of the largest fan bases though and Gundam Musou is multi-plat.

@PvtOttobot Yeah its pretty pointless, digital sales are up to 40% across consoles and PC its like 90%. Plus a lot of games now are digital only releases so its hard to get an accurate picture.

@Goginho Really? I think this mirrors Humanitys current state quite well, the dominate cultures thrive on violence, sex, comedy and sports. Whoever makes the first accessible and acceptable sex game will be a billionaire lol.

@Phantom_R Lol didn't even notice until you pointed it out now its all i see :/ .

@Drake Thanks for the update on challange mode, sounds like an afterthought which is a shame.

Hoping this is still set for 2014.

http://youtu.be/WPnV8TEkNxE - So apparently there is a challenge mode also, any info on this as its not explained in this video (which covers some of my other questions).

@unrandomsam "It seems many of the the things the reviewer thinks are negatives I see as positives.
No permanent upgrades
No tutorial
No farming for health (I would rather that be impossible the whole time)."

Exactly, why are these considered flaws in a semi-bullet hell shooter?

Also the devs have repeatedly stated this is a one screen game with the other being for audiences, this is further established by the fact you can switch or even turn off the second screen. Why would you try to use both and complain about them?

No mention of how it plays with the supported pro controller either?

Indication of lengh?

High scores?

No offensive but this review is on par with what i expect from a non -Jose IGN review. I don't care about scores, I read NL reviews because more often than not they are long and in depth.

@Reuf Okay thanks for the answer , i'll be picking this up for sure anyway.

No pro controller support?

@Peach64 Because said copies would end up on eBay.

@Mahe They pushed it to the 22nd a few weeks back.
