If this is true, this 3d game along with wind waker hd should be the last zelda remakes IN A LONG, LONG, LONG TIME. I loved the ocarina remake and wind waker hd sure looks awesome, but come on nintendo, just deliver a new zelda for both 3ds and wii u and everybody will be happy; remakes are pretty good but a new exciting adventure is even better.

@ChaosAngel I didn't mean that they add to the number, like the formes of the genie trio, keldeo, shaymin, etc. didn't either; I meant that instead of creating more forms, they should have created another pokemon and give it a number instead of creating more and more forms, so learn to read first.
The real kickbutt characters here would be: the question, animal man, dr. fate, wildcat, black canary, man-bat, the spectre, zatanna and jonah hex. And loving seriously killer frost? in action man-bat would be a much better option, imagine that giant bat fighting to death with batman or nightwing.
@AltDotNerd As a fan of watchmen and rorschach, it would be nice to see the official "watchman of dc" make it as dlc: The Question; the character that was moore's inspiration for the creation of rorschach.
I didn't like mewthree in the beginning but now I dislike him even more, because I truly despise forms, it's just a cheap way to create "more pokemon". He/it should have been an alternate mewtwo or something like that.
@Royalblues He really is something, because that lover learns moves from almost all types: fighting, steel, dragon, ground, normal, ghost, psychic, dark, etc. He behaves almost like a dragon in his versatility, and that's why he and metagross made it into my all dragon team.
If you guys haven't watched asalieri's videos of kickstarter nightmares on youtube, I strongly urge you to do so, because he points out the most interesting thing about kickstarter: the majority of lousy projects vastly outnumber the minority of really cool ones. I really dislike kickstarter because like asa says, most of the people there are nothing more than e-begging scumbags that want free money and usually give sh*tty rewards in exchange (I'm not saying all of them are the same). I have other responsibilities too at home to be willing to give free money to all people asking for it at kickstarter (yes, I'm looking at you AVGN).
@HeatBombastic Muscles don't mean nothing, those 3 you mentioned are LOT MORE BAD*SS than him, here's something you won't be able to refute: In the tower of babel story arc, batman screwed him SO BAD that he made him afraid of water, meaning he was having a slow and painful death courtesy of bats, AMEN.
Keep awesome-ing aquaman all you want warner, to me he is still an useless kitten, and superman will always be a boy scout, that's why I don't like him either, Batman proved in tower of babel to be the most powerful mind in the dc universe, outsmarting even lex luthor.
@Stark_Nebula The problem is that many of the spin-offs you talk about would have been ok without MEGAMAN on its titles. I talk about battle network, legends and star force directly, all those titles have almost nothing of megaman in them and could've been another franchise entirely, like the fps on the videos, you take away MEGAMAN from the title and it's another game. Too bad you didn't like the x series, both x and zero are the series that truly evolved the concept of classic megaman gameplay and took it a lot further introducing a lot of elements that made both of them so awesome. Mario's spin-offs don't get the flak you say because nintendo truly puts effort in making them absolute masterpieces and not cash-ins like capcom does, games like: mario and luigi, paper mario, mario kart, mario party, etc... tend to have awesome quality that I just can't find on the megaman games I mentioned earlier. Bottom line is: As much as I love and adore megaman he won't be as versatile as mario is, same goes for sonic.
Don't let me wrong, I adore megaman and metroid prime, they are both masterpieces that I hold very dearly but MY GOD WAS THIS AWFUL!!!!!, good thing it was cancelled because the problem is that if you take away megaman from the title and redesign the main character to look different, this could be another fps entirely and that is awful. I am grateful for metroid prime trilogy forever and ever but it was for the best that this abomination was cancelled for it doesn't look ANYTHING like megaman, while metroid prime retained almost all the essence of classic metroid and just pumped it much more.
@PvtOttobot That's what I intend to do, although I really don't like the design of mewthree, mewtwo 2, mew 2 or wtv the hell it is, I'm really looking forward to play the game; we all know a certain person just keeps posting infinite comments contradicting himself and bashing other's people comments but still, even if this 1 pokemon dissapointed me I'm just dying of curiosity to see the new dragons of this generation. For every poopy pokemon game freak makes, they make 5 awesome ones, just do the math (jaguar reference not intended).
@DeviousSnorlax I don't like the new form of mewtwo either, but that's it. Game freak hardly screws up old pokemon, coming to mind right now in the last two gens: togetic, more or less rhydon, porygon 2, managed to screw much more pokemon like tangela or lickitung, and now mewtwo, but that's it. Unova presented my new favorite pokemon of all time: Hydreigon, along with many awesome pokemon I love like Reshiram, Zekrom, Haxorus, Druddigon, Garchomp, Glaceon, and the list goes on. I admit my first pokemon game was pokemon yellow for the game boy color along with the awesome special limited edition pokemon game boy color many years ago, and I love gen 1 but saying that there aren't awesome in the recent gens is just being a plain fool, there were poopy pokemon even in gen 1: lickitung, muk, parasect, victreebel, exeggutor, seaking or even tangela. So, bottom line is every gen has poopy pokemon, and even my love for gen 1 doesn't blind me to see that fact.
PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE LET IT BE ZELDA!!!!! I'm just crossing my fingers hoping they will add at the end: "Oh yeah, by the way, we saved the best for last: THE LEGEND OF ZELDA (INSERT TITLE HERE) 3D!!!!!, and it will launch on september XX". AWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWW YEAH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
@Five-seveN She was awesome in both megaman 1 and megaman 10. In my humble opinion, her best track ever composed was Elecman's stage music in megaman 1, just f-cking awesome and addictive to listen to. I even have that track on my ipod, I don't know why but it soothes my soul; it is the perfect example of how a videogame's soundtrack should be made: simple but at the same time encouraging you to move on.
To everyone saying that nintendo should get rare back, there's something I want to remind you: Microsoft bought rare because nintendo just said: "I'll pass" and that was because nintendo became aware that the rare all people used to love was changing into the lame rare we know today, that's why nintendo didn't continue the relationship they had; and even if lame rare wanted to return I would not want that to happen because nintendo already has retro, so no time for lame rare.
@moroboshi While I agree that the task to sell it that way is very difficult, nintendo has proved that they can do it with or without the support of third party support. Look at the 3ds, almost all masterpieces are nintendo software with very few exceptions: street fighter 4, castlevania mirror of fate, etc. The wii ran almost entirely on first party games nintendo themselves developed and while I admit they no longer have the motion controls gimmick, I'm pretty sure the wii u gamepad will unleash its true potential over time. Also, motion controls weren't very used on the best games for the wii except for a few ones: super mario galaxy 1 and 2, metroid prime trilogy and the legend of zelda skyward sword and that's about it.
Nintendo doesn't need them, they can manage with their own resources, that's for sure. I've always considered the games that epic handles as a pretty damn hot chick: her looks are amazing but sadly, she has no brains or anything special besides her looks, and the ones that nintendo launches as the woman that you choose to marry: almost complete in all aspects, and reminds you how lucky you are to have her, sure, she doesn't have the hollywood looks as the hot chick, but she doesn't need them, she has that beauty you fell for in the first place.
@gigoloaunt7 my dear friend, does your nickname reflects one of the best songs syd barrett ever composed?
@Mk_II Exactly, I want to buy a wii u when nintendo launches the new yoshi game, mario kart 8 u, super smash bros u, super mario 3d u, the new zelda, pikmin 3, a new metroid game, donkey kong country returns 2, paper mario 5, etc etc etc etc. That's what I want a wii u for, not some generic fps that either takes place in space or in a semi WWII environment, that's what the 360 is for.
Agreed on mostly everything except the parts of mario galaxy, zelda and metroid and here's why:
A) Super mario galaxy 1 and 2 are simply amazing games that I just see as flawless and brought me hours and hours of entertainment and they also showed what the wii was truly capable of.
B)The legend of zelda ocarina of time is one of the best games of all time, I won't argue there, but to me the games that followed it were much better and mind-blowing: majora's mask, the wind waker, twilight princess and skyward sword are all masterpieces, my favorite being remasterized for wii u as I post, hehe.
C) Metroid isn't dead, even if you are one of the people that didn't like other m, which came out in 2010; I personally like the game and find it good enough to be considered a true metroid game but it is truly inferior to the metroid prime trilogy. Even if you consider metroid prime 3 to be the last true metroid game out there, it isn't much of a dead franchise considering the game is only 6 years old and also considering how much it took for kid icarus to rise from the dead; though I agree nintendo has been shoving aside the franchise lately.
The things that I agree with are the parts talking specifically about the wii u, because nintendo promised they would be ahead of time, having games that neither the ps3 or the xbox360 would have right now and I just don't see them coming. Sure, mario kart, 3d mario and wind waker hd will come along but that will surely take time, and all those titles are coming from nintendo themselves. Third parties don't want their games on the wii u despite the fact that supposedly it is far more advanced than both the ps3 and the 360. I really want a wii u but right now nintendo are the only ones truly supporting their own console, the only third party right now truly supporting nintendo is platinum games with the upcoming BAYONETTA 2 AND WONDERFUL 101, but truly that's it. I agree with everyone saying they won't fall (let's all be honest here, they won´t), nintendo always pulls miracles, I know that, but it is still frustrating that even though third parties can work with the most advanced piece of hardware right now on the market, they skip it, just to play safe which is pretty stupid if you ask me.
I really love this game, it really shows why nintendo won't disappear anytime soon, their style of doing videogames is very unique and recent games like this one and fire emblem awakening truly shine as the best of 2013.
@Peach64 That is YOUR opinion, as someone who has played FEZ recently, I prefer mighty switch force hyper drive edition. You're comparing apples with oranges here, FEZ came out almost a year ago and the wii u eshop started operations a little more than 4 months ago, so at least wait another 8 months before you start criticizing.
@Pikminboy Nintendo won't search nobody, they don't need to, indie developers willingly search them because they know nintendo's interested in anything that's both ingenious and innovative for their systems and secondly, they aren't that stupid, by now they've probably seen fish's notion of nintendo by all this coverage he's had by now, so they will move on ignoring all these bullsh*t because it isn't important to them.
@Zodiak13 Yeah, I agree, while I don't hate the guy or anything, he kinda reminds me of rob, who also thinks he is a comic book god by creating mediocre characters and drawing like sh*t, he isn't mark millar, brian m. bendis, bryan hitch or david finch but like fish he feels like he's one of the big guns, go figure.
@Zaphod_Beeblebrox It was removed like 2 days ago, but you can still see the videos if you tap the search bar on top of the eshop screen and then put "nintendo show", all videos will appear for you to watch. The icons change constantly to announce sales on digital downloads or to promote new or upcoming games; nintendo show 3d's icon has disappeared before and it will appear again when they launch a new episode, so don't worry.
@Rockman Yeah, I also noticed that, the eshop has a much smoother feel with the update.
@LordessMeep My thoughts exactly, I'm still with fire emblem and now that luigi's mansion is here, I have no time for anything else. I'm glad to see that others had a lot of trouble with the part of the bee boss where you have to turn, I thought I was the only one.
@DestinyMan Yeah, I hate that part too, everything in the boss battle was totally perfect except for those parts, game freak truly screwed that up because the parts with the d-pad have no rhythm whatsoever and because of that you aren't quite sure of when to turn.
Man, this game is brutal!!!!, I only did good in the special stage with pokemon's bycicle theme; playing this game truly is an art because it has such difficult times, the bee boss is hard at times, but like sin and punishment, you need to play it enough so it can be masterized.
They are so ugly that even if they launched them I wouldn't get any of them, there's a reason kotobukiya launched megaman figures and also retro roto figures exist; why would I want looking megaman 2 cover figure alongside megaman kotobukiya model? Just saying.....
@Bankai I didn't say he needed the support of every one of them, but it would have been nicer of his part just to say: "Well, I'm not that much a fan of the 3ds, I have one but I prefer the vita or the old ds system; Nintendo's standards doesn't meet from what I expect for my creations..."; that was civilized, straight to the point and making it clear that nintendo isn't the company he wants to handle his games. Again I don't hate him nor wish him bad, and if I can, I will check out his games, though I agree with you that some nintendo fans are just clamoring for his head and that is wrong, they should move on like you said.
@Bankai I'm not defending nintendo entirely, I love the 3ds but I'm aware not everyone has the same opinion as me, I don't hate fish nor I wish him something bad just for the fact that he bashed nintendo a lot. I know nintendo alongside sony and microsoft has its own flaws, I'm just saying that he was WAY TOO CRITICAL for an indie developer that is growing and needs gamers from all consoles to support him. I love the ps3 but hate the vita, but if I was in his place, I wouldn't make a story defining my hatred for the system, I just find that childish and pointless. Also, when you criticize, you use your head and make your case as why you don't like something, you don't make 20+ comments on why you hate it so bad on points leading nowhere.
@Bankai He really deserves it though, nothing he says makes any sense whatsoever, it's like saying I totally adore sony but then I go: THE PS LOVING VITA????!!!!!! WHAT A PIECE OF POOP IT IS!!!!!!!!, THE VITA IS THE BIGGEST PILE OF DUNG I'VE PLAYED IN MY LIFETIME!!!!!! and then I tweet like crazy so people think I don't hate sony, people just misunderstood my words and expressions.
@KenB That you create something great doesn't mean you're not a douchebag, look at paul mccartney, one of the biggest music idols of all time, he is a genius in creating music but a complete douchebag in other matters; and I agree that you don't have to like a company 100%, but one thing is constructive criticism and another thing is just rant like a 10 year-old.
@Residentsteven No offense but megaman is more important than re, since both megaman and ryu are capcom's mascots (alongside captain commando but he isn't that well-known); also re stopped being a horror survival franchise to venture itself to being another fps on the shelves.
@Meaty-cheeky Indeed it is sad, they just keep promising megaman will get attention but they keep shoving him aside, despite megaman alongside street fighter being their most important franchise.
@LegatoSkyheart To me the ultimate spit in the face as a megaman fan was the decision of not including him in marvel vs capcom 3 and instead we got crimson viper, one of the sh*ttiest characters I've ever seen in a street fighter game.
I think capcom is too proud to use megaman since keiji inafune left the company in 2010, here's the proof: a) marvel vs capcom 3 came out in 2011, TONS OF CAPCOM CHARACTERS were in the game EXCEPT for Rockman, their most important character besides Ryu b) Once Inafune announced he was leaving, they canceled legends 3 immediately (not that is a bad thing for me since I hate legends, network, star force and xz, that just ISN'T megaman), even though he wanted capcom to allow him to finish it before leaving c) The last true megaman game we had was megaman 10, when Inafune was still in Capcom, I don't count megaman x street fighter because that was entirely fan made and I doubt it will appear on a console soon.
There you go, I really don't think we will see a new megaman game for a LOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOONG TIME, rockman is dead to capcom since inafune left, PERIOD.
I agree with everything, the ducktales remaster, chip and dale being next, and all the other titles of disney/capcom everyone want to see next on wii u EXCEPT I'M WORRIED FOR 1 THING AND 1 THING ONLY: DLC; Capcom is famous along EA for screwing everything up with that, everything right now is beautiful and wonderful but I fear that when the game is about to launch they will say: "OH YEAH YOU CAN ALSO PLAY AS LAUNCHPAD MCQUACK, GYRO GEARLOOSE AND DONALD DUCK BUT THEY'RE DLC CHARACTERS 5 DOLLARS EACH, THERE'S ALSO TIME ATTACK AND EXTRA MISSIONS FOR 3 DOLLARS EACH TOO". I loved megaman 9 and 10 but I just hated how capcom wanted to cash in with the dlc, I just hope they don't screw this up.
@Prof_Elvin_Gadd That's the problem with this game, IT IS SO F-CKING ADDICTIVE!!!!! it reminds me a lot of fire emblem 7 for gba, just impossible to put down. I agree with the professor, even if you don´t want the dlc, THE GAME IS HUGE!!!!!, apart from the main quest, you have the paralogues, extra missions to the main quest and nintendo weekly sends you via wireless rare items for the main quest, and also extra teams from past fire emblems to battle and recruit characters from those teams. I just can´t put it down, it's my third run (this time on lunatic), and I can easily say that this is the best 3ds game released so far, yes, even beating Kid Icarus Uprising.
I don't get why everyone is so upset about the circle pad pro, no offense but I have played all the 3ds jewels without it with such ease and comfort that I don't see why it is such a gripe, but I agree on the point that nintendo shouldn't have bothered to release it if its support was almost non-existent.
@Ralizah Indeed it is hard as hell, choosing game of the year 2013 will be VERY VERY DIFFICULT: fire emblem awakening, castlevania mirror of fate and luigi's mansion dark moon just now, contenders arriving in these months: animal crossing: new leaf, mario and luigi dream team and pokemon x/y.
@Philip_J_Reed Same here too. Been playing kirby's return to dreamland on wii, mirror of fate on hardcore mode and fire emblem awakening on lunatic mode, and now I've got to do some space for luigi's mansion too AND harmoknight once it's released 4 days later. Yep, there isn't enough time.....
Best game ever, as my nickname and image say. Second best game ever: Mother 3. Ness is my main in smash since the 64 days (although in melee they vastly depowered him), I was really worried when it was rumoured that he would be replaced by lucas on brawl (I love Lucas but to me he is the ken of mother as Ness is still the ryu), but to my suprise he was still smashing and even better, he was the easiest character to unlock AND recovered his long-lost smash 64 god-like powers. Man, what memories this game brings to me, still have the snes cart I got my hands on 5 years ago for 90 bucks in pretty good shape; so Sakurai, don't f-ck with me and put Ness (and Lucas) in smash u and smash 3d.

I've always considered the games that epic handles as a pretty damn hot chick: her looks are amazing but sadly, she has no brains or anything special besides her looks, and the ones that nintendo launches as the woman that you choose to marry: almost complete in all aspects, and reminds you how lucky you are to have her, sure, she doesn't have the hollywood looks as the hot chick, but she doesn't need them, she has that beauty you fell for in the first place.
@gigoloaunt7 my dear friend, does your nickname reflects one of the best songs syd barrett ever composed?
Re: Epic Games Rules Out Unreal Engine 4 For Wii U
@Mk_II Exactly, I want to buy a wii u when nintendo launches the new yoshi game, mario kart 8 u, super smash bros u, super mario 3d u, the new zelda, pikmin 3, a new metroid game, donkey kong country returns 2, paper mario 5, etc etc etc etc. That's what I want a wii u for, not some generic fps that either takes place in space or in a semi WWII environment, that's what the 360 is for.
Re: Talking Point: An Open Letter To Nintendo
Agreed on mostly everything except the parts of mario galaxy, zelda and metroid and here's why:
A) Super mario galaxy 1 and 2 are simply amazing games that I just see as flawless and brought me hours and hours of entertainment and they also showed what the wii was truly capable of.
B)The legend of zelda ocarina of time is one of the best games of all time, I won't argue there, but to me the games that followed it were much better and mind-blowing: majora's mask, the wind waker, twilight princess and skyward sword are all masterpieces, my favorite being remasterized for wii u as I post, hehe.
C) Metroid isn't dead, even if you are one of the people that didn't like other m, which came out in 2010; I personally like the game and find it good enough to be considered a true metroid game but it is truly inferior to the metroid prime trilogy. Even if you consider metroid prime 3 to be the last true metroid game out there, it isn't much of a dead franchise considering the game is only 6 years old and also considering how much it took for kid icarus to rise from the dead; though I agree nintendo has been shoving aside the franchise lately.
The things that I agree with are the parts talking specifically about the wii u, because nintendo promised they would be ahead of time, having games that neither the ps3 or the xbox360 would have right now and I just don't see them coming. Sure, mario kart, 3d mario and wind waker hd will come along but that will surely take time, and all those titles are coming from nintendo themselves. Third parties don't want their games on the wii u despite the fact that supposedly it is far more advanced than both the ps3 and the 360. I really want a wii u but right now nintendo are the only ones truly supporting their own console, the only third party right now truly supporting nintendo is platinum games with the upcoming BAYONETTA 2 AND WONDERFUL 101, but truly that's it. I agree with everyone saying they won't fall (let's all be honest here, they won´t), nintendo always pulls miracles, I know that, but it is still frustrating that even though third parties can work with the most advanced piece of hardware right now on the market, they skip it, just to play safe which is pretty stupid if you ask me.
Re: Luigi's Mansion: Dark Moon Tops Japanese Charts
I really love this game, it really shows why nintendo won't disappear anytime soon, their style of doing videogames is very unique and recent games like this one and fire emblem awakening truly shine as the best of 2013.
Re: Fez For Wii U Is Highly Unlikely Unless Nintendo Pays For It
@Peach64 That is YOUR opinion, as someone who has played FEZ recently, I prefer mighty switch force hyper drive edition. You're comparing apples with oranges here, FEZ came out almost a year ago and the wii u eshop started operations a little more than 4 months ago, so at least wait another 8 months before you start criticizing.
Re: Fez For Wii U Is Highly Unlikely Unless Nintendo Pays For It
@Pikminboy Nintendo won't search nobody, they don't need to, indie developers willingly search them because they know nintendo's interested in anything that's both ingenious and innovative for their systems and secondly, they aren't that stupid, by now they've probably seen fish's notion of nintendo by all this coverage he's had by now, so they will move on ignoring all these bullsh*t because it isn't important to them.
@Zodiak13 Yeah, I agree, while I don't hate the guy or anything, he kinda reminds me of rob, who also thinks he is a comic book god by creating mediocre characters and drawing like sh*t, he isn't mark millar, brian m. bendis, bryan hitch or david finch but like fish he feels like he's one of the big guns, go figure.
Re: New 3DS System Update Gives the eShop a Spit and Polish
@Zaphod_Beeblebrox It was removed like 2 days ago, but you can still see the videos if you tap the search bar on top of the eshop screen and then put "nintendo show", all videos will appear for you to watch. The icons change constantly to announce sales on digital downloads or to promote new or upcoming games; nintendo show 3d's icon has disappeared before and it will appear again when they launch a new episode, so don't worry.
@Rockman Yeah, I also noticed that, the eshop has a much smoother feel with the update.
Re: Review: HarmoKnight (3DS eShop)
@LordessMeep My thoughts exactly, I'm still with fire emblem and now that luigi's mansion is here, I have no time for anything else. I'm glad to see that others had a lot of trouble with the part of the bee boss where you have to turn, I thought I was the only one.
Re: Review: HarmoKnight (3DS eShop)
@DestinyMan Yeah, I hate that part too, everything in the boss battle was totally perfect except for those parts, game freak truly screwed that up because the parts with the d-pad have no rhythm whatsoever and because of that you aren't quite sure of when to turn.
Re: Review: HarmoKnight (3DS eShop)
Man, this game is brutal!!!!, I only did good in the special stage with pokemon's bycicle theme; playing this game truly is an art because it has such difficult times, the bee boss is hard at times, but like sin and punishment, you need to play it enough so it can be masterized.
Re: Gaze Upon The Mega Man Figures You Will Never Own
@MANIAC911 Yeah, that's the only amazing figure in the pictures, and made me laugh really loud, haha.
Re: Gaze Upon The Mega Man Figures You Will Never Own
They are so ugly that even if they launched them I wouldn't get any of them, there's a reason kotobukiya launched megaman figures and also retro roto figures exist; why would I want looking megaman 2 cover figure alongside megaman kotobukiya model? Just saying.....
Re: Phil Fish: I Love Nintendo In Ways It Probably Doesn't Deserve
@Bankai I didn't say he needed the support of every one of them, but it would have been nicer of his part just to say: "Well, I'm not that much a fan of the 3ds, I have one but I prefer the vita or the old ds system; Nintendo's standards doesn't meet from what I expect for my creations..."; that was civilized, straight to the point and making it clear that nintendo isn't the company he wants to handle his games. Again I don't hate him nor wish him bad, and if I can, I will check out his games, though I agree with you that some nintendo fans are just clamoring for his head and that is wrong, they should move on like you said.
Re: Phil Fish: I Love Nintendo In Ways It Probably Doesn't Deserve
@Bankai I'm not defending nintendo entirely, I love the 3ds but I'm aware not everyone has the same opinion as me, I don't hate fish nor I wish him something bad just for the fact that he bashed nintendo a lot. I know nintendo alongside sony and microsoft has its own flaws, I'm just saying that he was WAY TOO CRITICAL for an indie developer that is growing and needs gamers from all consoles to support him. I love the ps3 but hate the vita, but if I was in his place, I wouldn't make a story defining my hatred for the system, I just find that childish and pointless. Also, when you criticize, you use your head and make your case as why you don't like something, you don't make 20+ comments on why you hate it so bad on points leading nowhere.
Re: Phil Fish: I Love Nintendo In Ways It Probably Doesn't Deserve
@Bankai He really deserves it though, nothing he says makes any sense whatsoever, it's like saying I totally adore sony but then I go: THE PS LOVING VITA????!!!!!! WHAT A PIECE OF POOP IT IS!!!!!!!!, THE VITA IS THE BIGGEST PILE OF DUNG I'VE PLAYED IN MY LIFETIME!!!!!! and then I tweet like crazy so people think I don't hate sony, people just misunderstood my words and expressions.
@KenB That you create something great doesn't mean you're not a douchebag, look at paul mccartney, one of the biggest music idols of all time, he is a genius in creating music but a complete douchebag in other matters; and I agree that you don't have to like a company 100%, but one thing is constructive criticism and another thing is just rant like a 10 year-old.
Re: Nintendo Spells Out Why You Should Pick Wii U In Promotional Flyer
The wii has one thing the wii u doesn't: it plays gamecube games; so nintendo, solve this by adding gamecube titles to the wii u eshop asap.
Re: Capcom Having "Ongoing Discussions About Mega Man"
@Residentsteven No offense but megaman is more important than re, since both megaman and ryu are capcom's mascots (alongside captain commando but he isn't that well-known); also re stopped being a horror survival franchise to venture itself to being another fps on the shelves.
Re: Capcom Having "Ongoing Discussions About Mega Man"
@Meaty-cheeky Indeed it is sad, they just keep promising megaman will get attention but they keep shoving him aside, despite megaman alongside street fighter being their most important franchise.
@LegatoSkyheart To me the ultimate spit in the face as a megaman fan was the decision of not including him in marvel vs capcom 3 and instead we got crimson viper, one of the sh*ttiest characters I've ever seen in a street fighter game.
Re: Capcom Having "Ongoing Discussions About Mega Man"
I think capcom is too proud to use megaman since keiji inafune left the company in 2010, here's the proof: a) marvel vs capcom 3 came out in 2011, TONS OF CAPCOM CHARACTERS were in the game EXCEPT for Rockman, their most important character besides Ryu b) Once Inafune announced he was leaving, they canceled legends 3 immediately (not that is a bad thing for me since I hate legends, network, star force and xz, that just ISN'T megaman), even though he wanted capcom to allow him to finish it before leaving c) The last true megaman game we had was megaman 10, when Inafune was still in Capcom, I don't count megaman x street fighter because that was entirely fan made and I doubt it will appear on a console soon.
There you go, I really don't think we will see a new megaman game for a LOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOONG TIME, rockman is dead to capcom since inafune left, PERIOD.
Re: More Capcom-Disney Games Could Be Remade if Duck Tales is Successful
I agree with everything, the ducktales remaster, chip and dale being next, and all the other titles of disney/capcom everyone want to see next on wii u EXCEPT I'M WORRIED FOR 1 THING AND 1 THING ONLY: DLC; Capcom is famous along EA for screwing everything up with that, everything right now is beautiful and wonderful but I fear that when the game is about to launch they will say: "OH YEAH YOU CAN ALSO PLAY AS LAUNCHPAD MCQUACK, GYRO GEARLOOSE AND DONALD DUCK BUT THEY'RE DLC CHARACTERS 5 DOLLARS EACH, THERE'S ALSO TIME ATTACK AND EXTRA MISSIONS FOR 3 DOLLARS EACH TOO". I loved megaman 9 and 10 but I just hated how capcom wanted to cash in with the dlc, I just hope they don't screw this up.
Re: Fire Emblem: Awakening Demo Questing To Europe On March 28th
@Prof_Elvin_Gadd That's the problem with this game, IT IS SO F-CKING ADDICTIVE!!!!! it reminds me a lot of fire emblem 7 for gba, just impossible to put down. I agree with the professor, even if you don´t want the dlc, THE GAME IS HUGE!!!!!, apart from the main quest, you have the paralogues, extra missions to the main quest and nintendo weekly sends you via wireless rare items for the main quest, and also extra teams from past fire emblems to battle and recruit characters from those teams. I just can´t put it down, it's my third run (this time on lunatic), and I can easily say that this is the best 3ds game released so far, yes, even beating Kid Icarus Uprising.
Re: Review: Luigi's Mansion: Dark Moon (3DS)
I don't get why everyone is so upset about the circle pad pro, no offense but I have played all the 3ds jewels without it with such ease and comfort that I don't see why it is such a gripe, but I agree on the point that nintendo shouldn't have bothered to release it if its support was almost non-existent.
Re: Review: Luigi's Mansion: Dark Moon (3DS)
@Ralizah Indeed it is hard as hell, choosing game of the year 2013 will be VERY VERY DIFFICULT: fire emblem awakening, castlevania mirror of fate and luigi's mansion dark moon just now, contenders arriving in these months: animal crossing: new leaf, mario and luigi dream team and pokemon x/y.
Re: MercurySteam Still Interested In Developing A Contra Title
Do it dammit!!!! Day one purchase for sure, loved all the contra games except those sony abominations for ps1 and ps2.
Re: Review: Luigi's Mansion: Dark Moon (3DS)
@Philip_J_Reed Same here too. Been playing kirby's return to dreamland on wii, mirror of fate on hardcore mode and fire emblem awakening on lunatic mode, and now I've got to do some space for luigi's mansion too AND harmoknight once it's released 4 days later. Yep, there isn't enough time.....
Re: Earthbound Creator, Shigesato Itoi, Gearing Up to Play SNES Classic in Live Stream
Best game ever, as my nickname and image say. Second best game ever: Mother 3. Ness is my main in smash since the 64 days (although in melee they vastly depowered him), I was really worried when it was rumoured that he would be replaced by lucas on brawl (I love Lucas but to me he is the ken of mother as Ness is still the ryu), but to my suprise he was still smashing and even better, he was the easiest character to unlock AND recovered his long-lost smash 64 god-like powers. Man, what memories this game brings to me, still have the snes cart I got my hands on 5 years ago for 90 bucks in pretty good shape; so Sakurai, don't f-ck with me and put Ness (and Lucas) in smash u and smash 3d.
