Always great to have Street Fighter on a console; would've been better IMO if Nintendo put this much effort towards adding more fighting games on Wii U, but I digress...
This looks great and all but I need to test the Pro Controller to see if it's worth a purchase.
I have such a huge catalog in my Wii U library that I'm not even sure if I'll get a Switch yet. It looks very promising though and I can't wait until the 12th to learn more about it.
The problem I have with it is they discount games I already own; slash those eShop 3rd party games in half (or even offer some like Watch Dogs for just $10) and that would help IMO.
This happened to me a few months back. I had to download EVERYTHING all over again; I couldn't even transfer since the first EHD just stopped working period.
It was a major pain to redownload but the one I have now is recommended by Nintendo (Brand: Toshiba) and works perfectly.
No idea how the NX will approach data management but I hope cloud management is included in some way.
@Cyberbotv2 Nintendo needs to bring back their sports games NBA Courtside, Ken Griffey baseball, and more. Or make a better effort to bring 3rd party sports games to NX. Wii U had only one NBA 2K and Madden game each, and no wrestling game at all; that's just sad.
The Wii U was doomed as soon as Nintendo revealed the official name for it. Hopefully the name, marketing, well damn near everything should be on point for the launch of NX. Price won't matter to me because, as of right now, I have little interest in it.
I also plan to buy a lot more games for Wii U and the backlog on my U is considerable already. What would peak my interest in NX is which and/or how many Nintendo franchises will have games made for the system: Metroid, F-Zero, Golden Sun (I can dream lol), etc.
So...they still don't listen to their fans...sigh...
On the other hand, I liked Sticker Star to a degree so I'll buy Color Splash as I think the series as a whole is excellent. Never player Super; didn't own a Wii.

Re: Nindies Video Showcase Coming Later This Month, Expect Lots Of Nintendo Switch Games
Hopefully Shantae: Half Genie Hero will make the "Switch" so I can buy it for the 4th time to support WayForward.
Re: Gallery: Here's How Nintendo Switch Game Cards Compare To Practically Everything Else
Looks like I'm mainly buying physical over digital like I do with my Vita.
Re: Gallery: Let's Compare The Nintendo Switch To Other Handhelds
Switch looks a little too fragile compared to the GamePad IMO.

Re: Best Buy and GameStop Offering Switch Pro Controller Pre-Orders in the US
@Alshain01 Because I think the Wii U Pro Controller is great and I've never an Xbox.
Re: Best Buy and GameStop Offering Switch Pro Controller Pre-Orders in the US
I wish they refined the look of the Wii U Pro Controller; Switch version looks like a ripoff of an Xbox controller.
Re: Poll: Does Nintendo Switch Need Streaming Apps and a Web Browser, Or Is It All About Games?
1) Vote Other: WWE Network
2) Definitely a miss.
Re: Fire Emblem Heroes Voting Event Crowns Its Champions
I voted for Lady Lyndis who BETTER be playable in the next Smash; getting tired of Marth TBH.
Re: Pokkén Tournament Falls Short in the EVO 2017 Player's Choice Vote
Shame for Pokken although I voted for Skullgirls (which is foolishly not even on Wii U; variety Nintendo!).
Hope there's a Pokken 2 coming on Switch at least.
Re: Swap Fire Update in the Works, Currently on Discount Ahead of Valentine's Day
I didn't even know it released already. I'll check it out later then.
Re: Ghost Blade HD Is Bringing Intense Bullet Hell Action To The Wii U eShop
@Priceless_Spork There's two other ones on the U: Nano Assault and Gaiabreaker. This one will be added to my library as well.
Re: Nintendo Download: 19th January (North America)
Star Fox 64
Re: Random: Of Course You Can't Fit The Nintendo Switch In Your Pocket
AKA the Switch is not a handheld. Pretty obvious really.
Re: F-Zero X Comes to the North American Virtual Console Tomorrow
@GameOtaku Double Dragon 3 for 3DS!
Re: F-Zero X Comes to the North American Virtual Console Tomorrow
Can a brotha get some WWF No Mercy? Make it happen Nintendo!
Re: Soapbox: Why I Still Love the Wii U
I have such a huge catalog in my Wii U library that I'm not even sure if I'll get a Switch yet. It looks very promising though and I can't wait until the 12th to learn more about it.
Re: Video: Gorillas, Mechs And Lightning Bolts, Wii U FPS Draw The Line Has It All
I remember the previous article about this game; hopefully this won't get cancelled. Online multiplayer?
Re: Video: Get a Good Look at Freedom Planet 2 in Character Preview Footage
@Gizmoguy92 I hope this comes to both Wii U and Switch too.
Re: Devil's Third Loses Its Saving Grace as Online Servers Are Closed
@Shiryu Impressive shooting
Re: Nintendo Download: 29th December (North America)
@Marios-love-child I know its hard to believe but some people skipped the Wii. MK64 will be an excellent addition to my VC library.
Re: Review: Shantae: Half-Genie Hero (Wii U)
This score is accurate for me as well: the only downside being you can't replay bosses IMO. I'm really enjoying it.
Re: Shantae: Half-Genie Hero Arrives on Wii U on 20th December
That's 3 purchases from me: Wii U and PS4 digitally, and Vita version retail.
Re: Ohayou! Beginner's Japanese Aims to Help Budding Language Students on Wii U
I learn Japanese by watching anime; what exactly is the difference?
Re: Take-Two Interactive Reiterates Support of Nintendo Switch, But Won't Confirm Games Yet
I don't care if it is a port of NBA 2K17, I want up-to-date rosters in an NBA game on a Nintendo system.
Re: Nintendo Download: 3rd November (North America)
Thought Shantae: Half Genie Hero was releasing this week. Guess I gotta wait a little longer.
Re: Here Are Your New My Nintendo Rewards
@EverythingAmiibo Exactly. Just another letdown from Nintendo...

@crimsontadpoles I couldn't help but imagine Ryuko saying your comment.
Re: Paper Mario: Color Splash Makes Modest Japanese Chart Debut
Just wanted to say that the pic on homepage with Peach and Toad looking sad is hilarious!
Re: Talking Point: The Problems With My Nintendo So Far, and Why All's Not Lost
The problem I have with it is they discount games I already own; slash those eShop 3rd party games in half (or even offer some like Watch Dogs for just $10) and that would help IMO.
Re: Koji Igarashi on the Wii U Port of Bloodstained
@CharlieSmile LMAO. I didn't back it but was hoping for Wii U version.

Re: 3DS Update 11.1.0-34 Brings Even More Stability To Nintendo's Incredibly Stable Handheld
Thank goodness. I thought I was playing with too much power, but now this update will stabilize it.

Re: Industry Veteran Interplay Puts Its Entire Library Of Properties Up For Sale
Time to put Earthworm Jim in Smas5, complete with EJ2 title screen music and the opening theme from the animated series. Do it Nintendo, do it.

Re: Capcom is Putting on a Sale on the North American eShops
@Ralizah Exactly. I already have all the Capcom Wii U games LOL.
Re: Video: Check Out The Action On Offer In Twisted Fusion
Characters are kinda small but it looks like a D1 purchase for me.
Re: The Nintendo 3DS Is Getting A New RPG Maker Game
sigh I knew it'd come down to this: I'm gonna make my own version of the forever-in-limbo GOLDEN SUN 4!!!
Re: Review: Final Fight (3DS eShop / SNES)
@Hey-Cha-La I said games; as in plural. Both of them released so far for 3DS, not just the first one.
Re: Review: Final Fight (3DS eShop / SNES)
@Shiryu With this game in particular, I'd rather play either M2 Streets of Rage 3D games; much more replay value in those.
Re: Poll: Which Nintendo NX Games Do You Want to See in the Launch Window?
No Other option? If there was one:
WWF No Mercy sequel
Re: Ubisoft Has "Surprises" Yet to be Announced for Nintendo NX
Watch Dogs 2 maybe?
Re: Review: Street Fighter Alpha 2 (New 3DS / SNES)
The pauses are also in the Wii U version; just gotta get used to it.
Re: Review: Super Street Fighter II: The New Challengers (New 3DS / SNES)
No multiplayer in a fighting game? No point in buying then.
Re: Rumour: Shantae and the Pirate's Curse is Getting a Physical 3DS Release
@PanicPuppet92 Try buying either Senran Kagura game for the Vita, without prior knowledge of the LE. Same with Code of Princess...
Re: Renegade Kid Has Kindly Offered To Port Sonic Mania To Nintendo 3DS
@BakaKnight Exactly. Having it on 3DS instead of Wii U or NX would be killer since we'd be able to play it anywhere.
Re: Project Sonic 2017 Confirmed for Nintendo NX Release
Trailer looks awesome (tch duh its SONIC) but with no gameplay footage, its a wait and see.
But I guess Nintendo's exclusivity deal ended because its multiplatform; may get this on PS4 if I don't buy NX just yet.
