It pains me to see this happen, but I'll say it doesn't surprise me . I think the Wii U will be the next Gamecube, amazingly creative games, but crap sales. I am surprised as well to see the 3DS get downgraded I hope Nintendo can fix this mess.
Nabbed me a Zelda one. I had to do a bunch of surveys, but I was impressed that I was able to get one!!!!! Now to add it to the other 2 I already have ^_^
Looks AMAZING not the biggest fan of Kirby, but I do love the games I have played. If Yoshi's New Island isn't to hot I might look into this sooner. If Yoshi is good then this may have to wait a while...
Theatrhythm is one of my favorite 3DS games of all time (right up there with New Leaf) and while I am not happy with Square Enix as of late (I even changed my user as some of you may know...) still easily my most anticipated game of 2014. Hoping its as good or better than the 1st!!!!!
I would LOVE to see a Wii U version of Animal Crossing, while I do think the series is better suited for handhelds I think it would be fantasic on the U. I'd also love a 2D Metroid on the 3DS that would be awesome (although I don't want a over saturation of 2D platformers on the 3DS this year so I could wait till 2015). Still a fine wish list will some of this happen??? Probably, but I won't get my hopes for everything on this list.
Theatrhythm Final Fantasy: Curtain Call is what I'm really looking forward to next year, that is if Square even brings out next year. I'm also holding out for a Pokémon Gen. 6 spinoff game (or Ruby and Sapphire 3D...)
Beyond the lack of Animal Crossing (which despite the countless amazing 3DS that came this year that is my favorite game of 2013) I am pleased with this list. Still haven't got Earthbound....I think I might being doing that shortly!!!!!!!!
Finally got on the 3DS eShop this morning!!!!!!!!!!!! Despite that I still can't decide whether to hurry and buy a Sega 3D classic or two or NES Remix (better hurry before it is down again....)
eShop is still down for me on my 3DS and when I last checked yesterday so is the Wii U eShop. Well at least I have Rune Factory 4 to keep me busy until its working again (wouldn't mind putting my $20 eShop card in though!!!!!!!)
@cyrus_zuo I don't think you need to worry about the 3DS. Worldwide sales are right around 40 million and in Japan alone 14 million plus (!!!!!!) have been sold. So I think the 3DS is gonna be in good shape for the future.
Hard choices this year...and I still haven't played all the 1st party Wii U games I wanted to this year!!!!!!!!! The 3DS on the other hand...I can't decide!!!!!!!!!!!!!! 2013 was the year of the 3DS and no money
Wow, what a journey. Way to go Image & Form!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! When the review hit Nintendo Life back in August I was fairly skeptical, but I decided to give it a try. After all it was towards the end of the summer months and I didn't really have much to play (and even if I did Animal Crossing ate all my time up ) Somehow this game quickly become my favorite game I had ever downloaded and it is definitely a contender up there with Animal Crossing New, Pokemon X and The Legend of Zelda A Link Between Worlds as the best 3DS game of the year. I am so glad to see what became of this game, you guys totally deserve it. ^_^
Woah that came from wayyyyyyyy outta left field!!!!!!!!!! I like how the Wii U IS getting a new Zelda game, but not the major one everyone is waiting for. This will be a nice hold over until 2015 when the real Zelda U comes out. In the mean time I'll enjoy playing this ^_^
This game looks amazing!!!!! Hope it comes out in March or April, but as I'm a poor American Bravely Default owns all my money so Kirby might have to wait a bit....
I almost bought Attack of the Friday Monsters the other day, but got 3D Space Harrier instead!!!!!! Hope that we get this discount in the USA on Thursday!!!!!
Glad to see the Wii U's sales go up now if they would just stay right about...there also glad to see the Vita finally has some momentum behind it, the handheld not the TV (which isn't looking so good) good news from the land of the rising sun
Well looks I'll be getting this one!!!!!! I'm still waiting for Sonic, but I do love a nice arcadey shooter every now and then. Hope the rest of Sega's 3D Classics are just as good or better
WOOT!!!!!!!!!!! Proud to say I got X on day one!!!! For those still on the fence (really how could you be at this point?!?!) it is seriously the most fun I have ever had with a Pokemon game in ages, it is really that good!!!! Welp time to get out my rocking chair I still remember those days with nutin but good old Pilotwings and Street Fighter to play and listening to people claim that the 3DS was doomed, 3D is a gimmick, smart phones are better and the Vita will sell 10 times as many systems as the 3DS. Heh heh horf Youngins go on back to smartyphone games I'll stick with my cartridge based thingys with that there fancy 3D screen!!!!!!!!
Sadly I can't get this on the 22 as I'll be going out of town until next weekend but I am glad to see it turned out so well!!!!!!!! I'll be sure to set a side of bit of birthday money for this game (or maybe I'll get it while I am out of town...?). 3D Land was amazing on the 3DS so I had a good feeling about this one. Now where'd all those naysayers who said this game suck and it isn't as good as Galaxy go hmmm??? I may have a little "present" for them...
I liked it, short simple and right to the point. It looks like the original 3DS is quietly being phased out (at least here in the US, but that doesn't surprise me with the 2DS out now)
Sigh, I saw the reviews for this game and was very disappointed with Wayforward especially after the better than expected Adventure Time HIKWYSOG?! (I love writing that way too!!!!). Oh well another crappy licensed another day in the world of gaming. Might be time to bust out HIKWYSOG?! again as it is one of the best licensed game to come out in years
All I want to see is The Last of Us win GOTY and either Zelda or Pokemon win handheld game of the year. Tearaway looks great, but I don't know unless it blows everything out of the water (which I doubt especially with ALBW) I do however wish Sony the best of luck with that game
Glad its coming, but I can gladly wait a month before it comes out. Love Miiverse on the Wii U and I can't wait to see how it turns out on the 3DS!!!!!!!!
Hmmm this actually seems like something I'd really like, I am always in the mood for a good visual novel (Ghost Trick!!!!!!) maybe I'll get this next year
0_0 thats quite a Wii U jump!!!!!!!!! Hope I can stay with in the high 10,000's or low 20,000 for the rest of the year. The new Vita clearly has helped the Vita gain some sales in Japan as well. Then of course the 3DS is unstoppable (who doesn't own one in that country?????????)
I fly pretty frequently, but if I sat at the window seat I didn't mind waiting to play my 3DS until we hit 10,000. The next time I fly however I will (probably) have some Zelda to play......so I think I will enjoy this rule change
Managed to nab one of these during school. I was pretty rushed (as class was just starting), but grabbed a red one to go with my Red/Black 3DS XL pretty happy I got one and Ninty sent me an email saying that they had shipped it out today
Already have Cave Story 3D on retail, but...I'd unfortunately double dip...maybe....still Cave Story 3D is my favorite version of Cave Story by far, just wish it had some more features
Absolutely love the show and I can't wait to get this game. Loved what Wayforward did with Adventure Time on the 3DS last year, not perfect, but just fine with me. I'll probably wait till next year when the price drops a bit to get this
Lol I was just at the Nintendo World Store!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Absolutely loved the Pokemon section, felt the guys who put it together did a great job!!!!! Still mad I didn't get the Pikachu 3DS XL................
