Woah, I was actually just thinking about this a couple days ago and how Wii U would be awesome for the Avengers,except that the majority of licensed games suck. I'm not even an Avengers fan nor have I seen the movie, I don't know why I was thinking about it.
Carts are so small I carry 'em with me. Changing discs is no problem, since you can only play at one place with your system. So if you choose download, you just spend more money on external memory... plus the inconvenience of having to write down what games are on what SD cards/whatever if you buy a lot of games for download.
Can't wait! I did the pre-buy survey on Club Nintendo just an hour or so ago, actually! Nintendo Power gave it only a 7/10, but they didn't mention any flaws, except that there isn't much content to go around. This press release says otherwise, though.
I foresee "A List of Things Sega Has Done Similar to Nintendo." But yeah, this looks pretty cool. I only got a chance to play the DS version of the original (demo on the Nintendo Channel), and apparently that's the suckiest.
@C-Olimar Well, I have way more download titles on my 3DS and Wii than physical ones (and maybe slightly more on my DSi, but I don't think so - I got a LOT of games for that). So, kinda makes sense to me.
Symbols? I made it so it greets me when I boot up my system! It says "3DS JACK". If you're wondering, which you aren't, I did 3DSWare/Demos DSiWare SoftwareBuilt-In Jack's 3DS Apps (Game Boy) Advance Games Console Virtual Kool NES Gamez
Hooray for wasting 10 minutes of life on the Home Menu!
Meh. I bet there's gonna be a small dry season for Nintendo - someone tell me if I'm wrong, but I believe the only big title they're releasing in the next 3 months is Mario Tennis Open. Once NSMB2 comes out, there's gonna be a huge burst, though, as well as people getting hyped for Wii U. I have no idea what I'm talking about
I already have my screen very sorted out. But with this update, it'll be easier to alphabetize! No, wait, I'll use the Dewey Decimal System! Or something!
What joy! But yes, I am actually looking forward to this.
@SkywardLink98 I assume that would be on the eShop...
@Scrafty When pitching, you take aim with the new controller - you can see the catcher following your aim with his mitt. Then, control switches to the defensive player closest to the ball, where you look through a semitransparent glove in an attempt to catch the ball and get an out. That's what it looked like at least.
Sounds promising, although one thing that sounded a little iffy was the painting mechanic. Drawing something accurate could be hard in an intense situation. Hopefully the mechanic is used well.
I've gone to a Chuck E. Cheese once in my life. I was like 6, it was really great. I don't think they can capture that pure unbridled joy of being in a Chuck E. Cheese when you're around the half-a-decade mark.
This looks amazing - I wasn't really interested until I read Nintendo Power's previews in their January/February and March issues and this review makes me want it even more.

I was wrong.
