Mystical Ninja and StarTropics for me. But it's always interesting to see what they do with a series that has been dormant for a while. Do they try and keep it like the originals, or try and innovate?
EDIT: Also what @NintyFan said. A WiiWare Ice Climbers would be a good fit. Also, another Adventure of Lolo would be great.
Don't see the point in having one? I would have thought the point is pretty clear...
Anyway, I'll download this and give it a look: anyway thing that can my times better is good for me. Saying that, I've got a lot of improvement to go before I can become anything near competitive.
Stopped playing around 12 hour for no real reason. Got occupied with other games I guess. It's definitely worth playing. The battle system is great, but there's a LOT if text.
Since finishing uni, I've never had a problem with buying games (probably got a problem with buying too many!), even though I buy a whole lot online (don't need to pay more than what I have to).
But I don't really see those figures as lost sales though. I wonder how many of them would bother buying the game if they could afford it anyway? I'm not saying it's OK, but it would be interesting to know how many people would buy the games legally if they had the money and pirating wasn't available.
It's interesting to see these figures. Would be good to know what the highlest/lowest selling games are and what amount.
But if I were a developer I wouldn't want to be burning my bridges.
Haha @Terra. I remember that. Just having a look at the review now, I thought I remembered the discussion being longer. Is it just me or did some comments get deleted?

Re: Nintendo Leaves BAFTA Empty-Handed
Peggle is fun for short bursts, but I wouldn't put it in front of 3D Land. Haven't played LBP2, so can't really comment on that one.

Mystical Ninja and StarTropics for me. But it's always interesting to see what they do with a series that has been dormant for a while. Do they try and keep it like the originals, or try and innovate?

Re: Review: Box Pusher (DSiWare)
These types of games are pretty fun for quick bursts, but they could have been a bit more imaginative with the theme.

Re: Mario Kart 7 Mobile App Makes Kart Combos Clearer

Re: Sami Cetin Sets New Super Mario Kart World Record
Seeing as the sign says it's a Mario Kart 7 tournament, my guess would be that it was in Mario Kart 7.
Also, imagine getting a world record, only for it to be beaten 5 days later. You'd be spewing.
Re: Review: Wario Land: Super Mario Land 3 (Game Boy)

"Basketball. I've got a killer hookshot!" Oh no you didn't...
Some of your best work here Brutus. Great work again. I bet it's a lot better writing when you haven't been forced through a 1* game.
Re: Welcome to the New Look Nintendo Life!
Looking forward to the iPhone version too. But in the meantime, this redesign is a lot more iPhone-friendly.
Re: Atlus Reprints Radiant Historia, Due Next Month
Stopped playing around 12 hour for no real reason. Got occupied with other games I guess. It's definitely worth playing. The battle system is great, but there's a LOT if text.
Will get back to it soon hopefully.
Re: Nintendo Download: 16th February 2012 (Europe)
Wario Land and MGS Demo? Why, thank you very much.
Re: Welcome to the New Look Nintendo Life!
Loving the work you guys are doing here. Great job again.
Would still like the recent forum topics to be at the top of the page like last time, but otherwise I like it.
Re: Review: Maru's Mission (3DS Virtual Console / Game Boy)
Yes, after watching I YouTube video of the game, I came to the same conclusion.
Well, that's saved me enough to buy an extra coffee tomorrow morning...

Re: Icon Games: "Nintendo's Policies Put Jobs at Risk"
Yeah, was starting to feel for them until I read that tweet. You've gotta learn how to play the game.

Re: Millions of Wii Games Pirated in 2011
Since finishing uni, I've never had a problem with buying games (probably got a problem with buying too many!), even though I buy a whole lot online (don't need to pay more than what I have to).

Re: Icon Games Breaks WiiWare Sales Figures Silence
It's interesting to see these figures. Would be good to know what the highlest/lowest selling games are and what amount.
But if I were a developer I wouldn't want to be burning my bridges.
