Hey NLife, is it going to be a full review?

Based on the comments, I think I'll give it a try anyways

If he wasn't using TAS, I'd say this is one of the most amazing things I've ever seen. Anyway, he still have some skill so good for him. Now give us Mario Maker Nintendo

@StarDust4Ever You're SO right

I'm really ineterested in this QoL thing, I've had problems sleeping over the past few years and I developed some problems because of that. Go Iwata!

@Bolt_Strike The Wii U is not THAT different from the Wii, but assymetric gameplay is a truly unique (and fun) experience (i.e. Nintendo Land)

@Quorthon "The other part of this is that great games do not always sell consoles. The Dreamcast is infamous for a strong library, and it still didn't sell. The same is true of the GameCube. To that--Nintendo all too regularly runs to remakes and obvious titles--Mario, Zelda, and Pokemon specifically. These do not sell consoles to anyone other than current Nintendo fans."

What? Pokémon and some Mario games sell consoles. But mostly Pokémon

@Iggly Route 24/25 sounds very similar to the music from Game and Wario, they just have different measures

I love Did you know gaming, even though I already knew some of the facts it was really nice to watch. The girl's voice was pretty sweet too

Those pikachu faceplates would make me so happy. It's a shame we didn't get the smaller n3DS

One of the best developers out there. Period.

Now give us Pokémon Snap 2!

@dAviD7 Hmmm... No

@bro2dragons That'd be a great adition. I still remember the first time I tried to post on a community and realized that I couldn't use my MK8 stamps

@sinalefa Yeah, that was a poor translation, I'll give it a try:

De la colección de Super Smash Bros., ya a la venta, podrás jugar con los amiibo de Mario, Peach,Yoshi, Luigi y Bowser. ¿Que no te has hecho con ellos y no los encuentras en ninguna parte? El 20 de marzo sale la nueva colección de amiibo fabricada ad hoc para Mario Party 10: Super Mario Collection, que incluye nuevos amiibo de Mario, Luigi, Peach, Toad, Yoshi, Bowser, Estela, Donkey Kong y Wario.

From the Super Smash Bros. collection, now on sale, you'll be able to play with the Mario, Peach,Yoshi, Luigi and Bowser amiibo. Haven't you got them yet and you can't find them anywhere? On March 20th, the new Mario Party 10 ad hoc amiibo line comes out: Super Mario Collection, wich includes new amiibo such as Mario, Luigi, Peach, Toad, Yoshi, Bowser, Rosalina, Donkey Kong and Wario.

I'll buy Kirby and the Rainbow Curse next week so it's nice to see I won't spend that much money these days.

Aaand I need to keep playing Majora's Mask... actually, I should get going right now

Well, we'll be getting 2 great puzzle games for the price of 1 and the only thing I'd like to get is that stylus anyway, so, no big loss here if we don't get this extra thingies

@Zach Super Bonus Bros.? It's weird to see NLife news without at least a pun in the subheader

These are beautiful. I hope the LE n3DS XL is sexier than this

@JaxonH I admire your persistence compadre, I suppose getting all the amiibo is no easy task

@Zergling Are you serious? I'm a straight man but certainly not very strong or physically masculine. As @VanillaLake said there are feminine straight man and masculine gay men. Looks matter so little

Playing through MM for the first time I can say that I like Tingle, he's such a happy character and he doesn't care what his father thinks about him. He's just childish, wich isn't the same as being gay.

Oh, and nice writing Thomas!

I'll buy this game next week, it's cheap and looks gorgeous (just as CT). The first one got a 7 as well, and I LOVED that game

I'd buy it in a heartbeat, but the local retailers in México either won't have it or say "yeah, we got like 5 but they sold out really fast"

Last week I was really tempted to buy Pandora's Tower I'm so glad that I waited. I'm just kinda worried about something, Nintendo pusblished these games in Japan, but XSEEDS published Pandora's Tower in NA so... Do you think it'd still be posible to have it over here? Well, lucky europeans, they'll get it anyways

Though I was interested in the smaller (sexier) model, I can see why they're skipping it on the Americas. 6 out of 7 friends I asked, said they were buying the XL. We're just a different market, the smaller model didn't make that much sense over here.

Anyways, I'll buy the XC new 3DS XL when it comes out

@DarkEdi I usually buy games at the frikiplaza, they're a lot cheaper there than in Gameplanet or Gamers. Last weekend I bought Majora's Mask 3D for 630 pesos, wich is just 30 pesos more than the "real" price (40*15=600).

I also found some rare amiibo there, but the prices are kinda ridiculous, they sell a Little Mac amiibo for like 600 pesos.($40 USD for the curious)

@MoonKnight7 I live in Mexico, so it's kinda hard to get rare amiibo. The biggest retailer (Gameplanet) hasn't even put it on pre-order yet, wich is worrying

I think It'd be really cool if Nintendo put a Shulk amiibo in a Xenoblade Chronicles 3D bundle (console, game and amiibo) given the rarity of it. A man can dream...

@RoomB31 According to Wikipedia

"It was released to critical acclaim, and sold 2.18 million copies by the end of 2013, despite being released just 40 days before the end of the year."

So, it wasn't THAT bad, it's just that MM 3D is selling better

Great, I hope the sales momentum keeps going through 2015. At least in NA, we've got plenty of good games coming every month.

And is it me, or Nintendo is truly giving amazing games this gen? I don't think they had this much quality since the GC days.

P.S. You don't have to be sorry Thomas

I think it's a good option for the people who don't want to spend all their money on the figurines and want the DLC that can be unlocked with them. I just hope Nintendo keep restocking the rare amiibo, I REALLY need Shulk >:C

Does anyone know how well/bad this game has sold?

This seems to be like a perfect game to download, just pick and play any time without changing cartridges. I'm afraid I'll waste so much time with this one

I'll wait for the inevitable release of the Xenoblade Chronicles 3D LE. I wanted to buy the regular size n3DS but NoA doesn't like money

Hmmm, not bad, I might pick the campaign when it hits NA.

And I'm really curious to see the graphics, they look even better than those of Shin'en's games

@TheRegginator So... I guess Mew2King is a casual then

Nice, those guys deserve worse things for what they're doing. Maybe a bricked system would be more fair

@warvad Come on, are you serious?

Seriously, why can't many people like both games? I love Melee AND Smash for Wii U, they're both great games

@MrGawain

Well, I hope the new3DS helps boost sales enough so Nintendo reaches its targets. This has been a good year so far, but it can be better (financially speaking)

I guess we'll see this technology being used side to side with traditional gaming inputs. I don't think there'll be consoles just based on VR, although it'll be fun to see how it's used.

"If games and 3D worlds are just blindly turned into VR, the future looks slim" So true

Finally. I was kinda worried when I saw they hadn't released any video since almost a month ago. Good thing it was a Smash one, and with Xander Mobus' voice

@Yorumi Making the same games for 30 years? That's a big fat lie

This game looks (and sounds) awesome. I'll keep an eye on this one

The princing is good and the game doesn't look bad. I'll wait the review though

@andrea987 Ew, lots of NPC interactions? I don't think that's necessary

Aw, some of the cards are very cute, I should print some. And that video was great, advertising while being adorable

I might try it, the first one had good level design but was kinda easy

A Metroid series of small episodes, almost no dialogue and a bit dark setup... Yeah, I'd watch that

@Jaz007 "The sports provided good exercise for the body. I don't think Tetris does quite the same for the mind"

Actually it does.

@ReBirFh Well, I'm not arguing that. Anyway, I'll sure enjoy this game

@liveswired Mario Kart 8, SM3DWorld and Captain Toad TT look gorgeous. TW101, Pikmin 3 and Smash don't look bad at all

I hope they polish a bit more some of the textures and animations on the characters. They can look better than this. Anyway, this game looks amazing!

Imagine a 3D remake of Super Metroid... That'd be beautiful

When official Pokemon amiibo arrive, Nintendo should make a bunch of shiny ones...
