Still it's better than Resi 5. Not talking about the first levels where you happen to be playing a white guy shooting zombies that happen to be in Africa but the later levels where you fight infected tribesmen sterotypes. But as Yahtzee said it's not a true offence as not being aware, "Capcom ins't evil, they're just stupid!"
@antipop621 I'm the same. I swear whoever thought of those stupid "kill a bazzilion enemies while giant bosses chase you and if you don't waste time killing other heroes the enemies get harder" missions was a jerk. I'll beat them yet
I think the main purpose was to push amiibos. And the amiibo part funnily enough sold me on Mario Party 10, if only because the amiibo mode works like the old games.
And Nintendo should set up a dedicated amiibo online store so that there's less shortages in the future and so Nintendo themselves have a better handle on the demand.
Looking at Trap Team what I would want is a Pokeball amiibo that can hold the data of one pokemon from your game. And it should come with a pokemon already in it like Pokeball pattern Villion.
Wow, this is what happens when Nintendo listens to everyone saying that no-one wants to buy their stuff. They need to up their production and resume any discontinued lines.
I managed to get all the amiibos I wanted but Yoshi was double the regular price. I wonder if Skylanders or Disney Infinity had this problem or were they more well stocked?
I believe it's for the best. I like how Smash stand out from other games but I think it needs a different design philosophy for the next one. Maybe one that gives Ganondorf a proper moveset.
He's made four great Smash games, many great Kirby games and a Kid Icarus game that would be awesome if they updated it to use the n3DS's second stick.
I think this console Generation is going to be a slow one in Japan. The PS4 has probably sold magnitudes more than the WiiU but not as much as Sony hoped I'm betting.
Playing through AS I find it's pleasing a nostalgia in me I didn't know I had. For what I remember of the originals is not being able to trade over the ones from Gold and Silver and that put a damper on the experience.
@WanderingPB As far as I remember Rare was doing well but the original owners sold their 51% for an unprecedented amount to Microsoft. I wonder if they feel it was worth it now.
It's sad that Capcom has such bad PR that people thing this is a "thigns can't get worse so why not" situation though.

@EllenJMiller I hope for more DLC too but I expect it will take longer as they need to plan it out.
Personally I hope for some Windwaker DLC.
Re: Official Japanese Website for The Legend of Zelda: Majora's Mask 3D Is Updated With Lots of Lovely Things
"little big cooler"? I think you mean "little bit cooler".

Re: Best Buy Cancellations of Majora's Mask 3D New Nintendo 3DS Bundles Affects More Customers
Nintendo seems to be bleeding potential money these days.
Re: Official Nintendo UK Store Kicks Off amiibo Pre-Orders for Wave 4
According to my calculations there's two more waves to go with one havign 7 and the other having 6. Unless Mewtwo and the Miis get involved.
Re: Official Nintendo UK Store Kicks Off amiibo Pre-Orders for Wave 4
I got pac and the FE duo so I'mmostly set
Re: Official Nintendo UK Store Kicks Off amiibo Pre-Orders for Wave 4
Ness has already sold out. Ouch.
Re: Xenoblade Chronicles X Localisation Work is "Well Underway"
With enough luck we'll have trailers without subtitled Japanese soon.

What titles? There's just a blank space.

Re: Nintendo Direct Confirmed for 14th January, With Focus on Spring Releases
I'm guessing "new" 3DS and maybe a Mewtwo trailer for Smash 4. I'm thinking only one or two games we don't know Jack about.
Re: From Soy Sauce Hopes to Bring Touhou Super Smash Battles to Wii U
I think they ought to change the name a bit. Last thing you want is the lawyer squad after you.
Re: Little Mac's amiibo Appears to Have Actually Been Discontinued in North America
I'm beginning to think the only way to get the full story on what the plan for amiibos is would be to launch a Ninja raid on Nintendo HQ.
Re: Nintendo Rolls Out Kirby and the Rainbow Curse Footage and Details
Well now I've got that excuse to get all the Kirby Amiibos

Re: Nintendo's New Response: Some amiibo "Likely" to be Discontinued
Send Nintendo your emails (Japanese where possible) and let them know you want that thar pretty boy amiibo. Enough demand will create a new supply.
Re: Splatoon Developers Continue to Paint a Picture of Progress
Looking good so far. Shooters have gotten stagnant with all the COD wannabes.
Re: Rumour: Has Shin Megami Tensei X Fire Emblem Been Cancelled?
So no cancellation announcement so far...
Wanna do an update on this story?
Re: Rumour: Villager, Marth & Wii Fit Trainer amiibo Discontinued
Wow, this is what happens when Nintendo listens to everyone saying that no-one wants to buy their stuff. They need to up their production and resume any discontinued lines.
Re: Amazon UK Is Cancelling GameCube Adapter Orders Due To Lack Of Stock
I think we should start sending letters to Nintendo to tell them what we think. (Albeit with less cussing than we'd like.)
Re: Weirdness: Defective Fox and Villager amiibo Now Appear on eBay
I managed to get all the amiibos I wanted but Yoshi was double the regular price. I wonder if Skylanders or Disney Infinity had this problem or were they more well stocked?

Re: Pokémon Omega Ruby & Alpha Sapphire and New 3DS Lead in Japan, With Wii U Sales Improving
I think this console Generation is going to be a slow one in Japan. The PS4 has probably sold magnitudes more than the WiiU but not as much as Sony hoped I'm betting.
Re: Parent Trap: amiibo Packs a Hidden Family Payload
I hope Nintendo makes a game that REQUIRES the figures to show off at E3.

Re: Video: Here's How amiibo Works With Mario Kart 8, Hyrule Warriors And Smash Bros. Wii U
I wonder how they work with Captain Toad.

What's the current level cap?
Re: Peculiar Outfits and Details Revealed for Twilight Princess Hyrule Warriors DLC
And then Ganondorf became a Keyblade Warrior.
Re: 72 Million Kids Are Dying To Get Their Grubby Hands On Smart Toys Like Amiibo
@Peach64 Well aparetly they are compatable with Mario Kart 8 so there'll be some spillover.
Re: 72 Million Kids Are Dying To Get Their Grubby Hands On Smart Toys Like Amiibo
I wonder if these things will boost sales of Smash Bros.
Re: First Impressions: Getting Our Hands Dirty in Harvest Moon: The Lost Valley
Game looks good but the trailer guy's voice is sooooo mismatched.
Re: EA Explains Why Its Abandoning Dedicated Handhelds For Smartphones And Tablets
Didn't Capcom do a similar thing and then crash and burn to the point it's now under buyout?
Re: Mario Kart 8 Speeds Past The Two Million Copies Sold Barrier In Less Than A Month
@CaviarMeths Do you have the first month sales for the previous Mario Karts for comparison?
I wonder how Amiibo support will tie into all of this.
Re: Review: Shovel Knight (Wii U eShop)
Good to hear. I wonder if it would've taken off in an alternate 80's where the NES had a bigger color pallete.
Re: Hyrule Warriors Downloadable Costume Sets Feature Twilight Princess Outfits for Link and Zelda
I hope the costumes will be part of a pack because I'm not buying them separately.
Re: Weirdness: So, Someone Made A Valve E3 Press Conference Using Tomodachi Life
I still get a kick out of this.
Re: Don't Worry, Splatoon Will Have A Local Mulitplayer Mode Too
Makes me wish LAN parties were still a thing that consoles could do.
Re: Nintendo Executive Suggests Wii U is at a "Tipping Point" Towards Success
I hope for the best.
Personally after I get the WiiU Smash 4, anything else is extra. Though Splatoon may be an essential.
Re: Review: Pac-Land (Wii U eShop / NES)
An intresting History lesson if nothing else. Shows how much Super Mario did for the Platforming Genre.
Re: Eiji Aonuma Vows to Reduce Hand-Holding in Future Zelda Installments
Less we see of Fi the better. I was one of those mutant freaks who thought Navi was cute though.

@NorthLightSuplx Or trying to keep 12 SFxT characters behind a pay-wall. Still haven't bought them, out of protest.
Re: Capcom Could Be Up For Sale After Shareholders Reject Anti-Takeover Plan
I'm wondering what killed Capcom the most: homogenizing the Resident Evil series, canning the Mega Man series or just being crap to their developers.
