I actually really like the design of the red panda (which incidentally isn't a bear). Almost definitely going to have one in my team.

Just watched the first episode and I love it! The pacing was a bit quick, but I can see why, trying to fit the tutorial into one episode. Can't wait to see how it handles the other cases!

@DoctorOverbuild @Alundra-1998 Just checked and there was an eShop card that wan't in the basket until I logged in for checkout. All fine now

I tried preordering it and when I got to checkout another £20 had been added to the price...

Majora's Mask is not just my favourite Zelda, but probably my favourite game too. I like how the 3 day cycle manages to add more personality to the characters, and some of them have genuinely touching stories to go with them.

Besides Majora's Mask, I love so many of the other games equally, but I ended up going with Skyward Sword and Wind Waker.

@liveswired Fire Emblem isn't exactly a children's game. And if kids do play it, I don't see how the presence of same-sex relationships alongside opposite-sex relationships is going to be harmful.

Really hope that Trauma Team and the rest of the Trauma Center series heads to the EU eShop. I absolutely love the series, and I imported a US Wii just to play Trauma Team. So worth it!

@Kaze_Memaryu I've taken the first of the three. Thanks!

Wow there's a lot of negativity here. I'm happy to see Shovel Knight getting it's own Amiibo. It was a fantastic game and it's cool they're even considering things like this. Hopefully this will open up the possibility of other non-nintendo Amiibo (really want a Bayonetta one to be announced).

I understand the concerns about game modes being locked behind the Amiibo, but these features don't seem too massive, don't add anything major to the game and likely weren't even considered for the game in the first place. If these were included on day one, but locked off I could see the worry, but in my opinion this seems reasonable. Shovel Knight is already a full game without these features, plus there's FREE DLC coming soon.

Yes, there is potential for Amiibo to go too far, locking out large portions of a game unless the Amiibo is bought. So far, however, they seem to be handled well, with only minor features in different games meaning that the game isn't locked behind the Amiibo. (Also availability has been an issue for many, but I won't go into that here.) And to those complaining about how Nintendo has handled the Shovel Knight Amiibo, this was all done by Yacht Club, not Nintendo.

I was talking with a friend earlier and came up with a (maybe farfetched) theory about the story. Given what we've heard from Kensuke Tanabe recently (wanting to create a Metroid game revolving around Samus and Sylux from Hunters, and possibly using Federation Force to flesh out the universe a bit), Sylux may feature in Federation Force (giving backstory for his hatred of the Galactic Federation), which could then be used to lead into a new game set after Corruption, where the ship in the secret ending was confirmed to belong to Sylux at E3 this year. This would finally tie Hunters into the story too, considering that it has little to no relation to the Prime story.

This sounds a little bit out there, and I'm probably going to be disappointed, but I had fun coming up with the theory at least.

As a zookeeper myself, I wish things could be this easy. Guess the real thing is much more entertaining though.

@bubby444 That's not what I was saying. You wondered why it has the Metroid title, and I responded that it was part of the Metroid universe. Simple. I understand that people want a proper Metroid game, so do I, but that isn't to say that Federation Force will be a bad game simply because it's a spin off. Did Nintendo do a bad job at introducing this game? Yes, but that doesn't mean that the game itself will be bad. Wait for more to be revealed about the game. You never know, it might actually be a good game.

@bubby444 Or maybe it's set in the Metroid universe, using parts of the lore and maybe adding to the series itself? Just because Samus isn't the main character does not make this a pure cash grab.

Wow I'm seeing a lot of whining here. Did Nintendo do a bad job of introducing this game? Yes, no doubt about it. Does that mean that this game will be bad? No. It could potentially be amazing. I admit that I'd rather see a main series Metroid game, but I'm still going to give this a chance and see what it offers. Just because Samus isn't in it doesn't mean it'll be bad. Maybe offering a playable demo of the game would help to clear up some of the negativity surrounding it.

Even though it says on the official Nintendo Store site that it despatches on the 3rd July, my Dark Pit has just been despatched,

Ganondorf, Palutena and ZS Samus arrived this morning, and just ordered Dark Pit now. I'm going to need to find somewhere to put all my Amiibo soon. There's just no enough space!

Got Captain Falcon! Now just Little Mac and I've got the first two waves.

While I can't say I'm overly pleased with this announcement, I don't hate that this is being released. Obviously I'd prefer a proper Metroid game, and had one been announced, this wouldn't have been so bad. Without a proper metroid game though, this just feels underwhelming, and quite cheeky of Nintendo.

Bayonetta got my vote.

I'd rather that they took the time to make the game as good and as polished they can rather than shove something out to meet a release target that is only a half complete, buggy game.

And now Nintendo have cancelled my Shulk preorder. Brilliant! Out of the entire Amiibo lineup, he was the one I wanted the most...

My Shulk is still classed as 'awaiting stock pick' on the Nintendo Store, so I'm hoping that there won't be an issue with it. Saying that, other Amiibos that I've preordered from the site have arrived a few days early, so it's a little odd that I'm still waiting on Shulk.

@TossedLlama It's pretty much a port of the Wii game, so the story will be exactly the same. No need to play the Wii game first. And it's not related to any of the Xeno games on other consoles either. The name is just a reference to those games.

I don't mind paying full price for this remake. Not only is Majora's Mask my favourite game of all time, but having it on a handheld is one of the biggest selling points of the remake for me. I can take it with me to play now, and I don't need to constantly dig out my N64 and the cartridge, both of which are now on their last legs.

And as for complaints about getting excited over something old rather than new games, what makes you think I'm not interested in other, newer games coming out either?

The Edge Chronicles reference at 0:17 made my day.

Thanks for the heads up! Just preordered my MM edition now.

@Skullcruncher I think the Monster Hunter 3DS looks better, but I would like the Majora's Mask 3DS as it's one of my favourite games. I've preordered the Monster Hunter one just in case the MM edition sells out before I get a chance to get it.

The Monster Hunter special edition console is on Game.co.uk now, but no sign of the Majora's Mask edition yet.

So apparently I can't log on to the UK site because my Club Nintendo account lists me as living in Ireland, even though I live in Wales, and there's no option to change it...

It's letting me log onto the Irish page, but not the UK page. The only country available to choose is Ireland, but it lets me put my normal address in. Does anyone now if it would be worth trying to order from the Irish page instead?

@__efac Tried to make a new account but it told me THAT password was incorrect too. Kind of annoying...

I got the email, and I want to order it, but for some reason I can't log onto the page. It keeps telling me my password is wrong, despite it being the one I used to log in to the normal Club Nintendo page.
