Acknowledged that this is a rumoured list. If it's accurate, however, I'll wait a while, likely months to a year or more. If the Big N doesn't get it this time around, I might just nab Zelda for my Wii U and forget the Switch.
@Utena-mobile We just bought another new PS3 because of how much we have sunk in games. I think the PS3 has kicked the 4's butt in games so far. We'll see, though.
I dig my Wii U, and the Big N's games are top-notch. I got kinda cheesed because of the Zelda thing, but they're still releasing it for the console. I'm planning on waiting on the Switch to see specs, launch lineup, and general reception. Maybe another Zelda delay will do me a favor, really.
I liked this game, though my PS3 copy has a good bit of screen tearing. I haven't purchased a PS4 or Xbox One, and am unlikely to do so, as they both boast primarily remasters, with a few exceptions. May get a Wii U disc version if it actually releases.
@HaNks Me too. The launch lineup will have to be pretty compelling to get me to buy in Zelda's (alleged) absence. Though there's no way the console is coming down in price that soon. That will take years to happen.
Fiddlesticks! Just paid $40.00 for LM: DM, and haven't even started it yet. Maybe I'll take a flier on Animal Crossing. Short play times sounds good, but I'm not sure I'm willing to invest in it long-term.

@wolvesboy Yes. Own it, wolves.
Re: Nintendo Life's 12 Days of Christmas - Day Seven
I thought that was Pat Benetar.
Re: Deals: Buy a Deluxe Wii U from Nintendo for $200
Refurbished for $200.00? Been a fan of the Big N for quite some time, but they can be pretty tone-deaf.
I was surprised it is a refurbished unit, but I shouldn't have been.
Re: Super Mario Bros. Movie Due to Receive an Ultimate Steelbook Blu-Ray Re-release
George Lucas should rewrite it and add a bunch of CGI scenes.
Re: Nintendo Life's 12 Days of Christmas - Day Five
So, Alex moves from speciesism (Tom Nook et al) to cultural imperialism, eh? This was a rather dark turn.
"For better...thing." Love it.
Re: Nintendo Download: 29th December (North America)
@OneBagTravel Dude, that's like, 10 RCMADIAX games.
Re: Nintendo Life's 12 Days of Christmas - Day Three
These two are just too cute.
And I'm beginning to think they filmed all these on the same day.
Re: Nintendo Life's 12 Days of Christmas - Day Two
@AlexSora89 Jiminy Christmas, Alex, not that kind of waft.
Wait, Alex...Alex...
Gimme a minute, I'm almost on it...
Re: Nintendo Life's 12 Days of Christmas - Day Two
Waft, Alex, waft.
Re: Editorial: Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays from All at Nintendo Life
Merry Christmas, all. Best game community on the 'net.
Re: Deals: There Are a Lot of Festive eShop Discounts in North America
May be time to get Teslagrad, though I kinda suck at platformers that take any kind of skill. A little Nintendolife fairy told me it's pretty good.
Re: Video: It's Not Hard to Spot the Difference in This Super Mario Maker 3DS & Wii U Comparison
@DrRandle 9 wild things Princess Peach can discover from a DNA test!
Re: Video: It's Not Hard to Spot the Difference in This Super Mario Maker 3DS & Wii U Comparison
That was a good techno song at the end there.
Re: Feature: 10 Essential Wii U And 3DS Platformers
I suck at platformers and have 7 of these bad boys.

Re: Poll: The Wii U is Four Years Old, But What Is Its Legacy?
@Utena-mobile We just bought another new PS3 because of how much we have sunk in games. I think the PS3 has kicked the 4's butt in games so far. We'll see, though.

Re: eBay Reports an Average NES Mini Sale Price of Over $200
I can wait. The benefits of age and a backlog the length of my right arm. And both legs. And a couple of fingers.
Re: Steve Carell In Talks To Star In Forthcoming Minecraft Movie
A Minecraft film? The new Eraserhead.
Re: Shigeru Miyamoto is Now 64 Years Old
Hey, it's my coworker's birthday today as well. Coincidence?
Happy birthday. Thanks for all the great fun.

Re: Defenders of the Triforce 'Experience' Coming to US Cities
Could be cool, but that is indeed a dopey URL.
Probably be delayed to Fall 2018. ish. Localization problems.

Re: Weirdness: Nintendo Commissions a Survey to Try and Sell Mario Party Star Rush to Guilty Parents
Kinda makes me want to not buy a Switch.
Re: Nintendo Download: 10th November (North America)
Tingle knows more about maps, than...than...the cartographers, believe me.
Of course, he is a cartographer, so that kinda went thud.
Re: Nintendo Download: 10th November (North America)
@AlexSora89 Dear Lord, yes.
I need to drown my sorrows in some Wind Waker.
Re: Three Tempting Virtual Console Games Are Heading to North America This Week
I'm too damned depressed.
I should play some...game or something.
Re: Nintendo Celebrates the NES Classic Edition by Going Retro With The 'Power Line'
@SuperToe Pong, baby. You and me both. In on the ground floor.
Re: GameStop Starts Selling and Accepting Trade-Ins on Retro Gaming in the US
Gamestop. Blech.
Re: Editorial: Don't Let Patents Be The New Source of Unrealistic Nintendo Switch Expectations
Me too on the "parents" thing.
Better than the "bullish" misread I did on an earlier Switch article.
Re: Fans "Shouldn't Assume" That The Nintendo Switch Reveal Trailer Features "Actual Game Footage"
What if I imagine Half-Life 3 footage? Will that count?
Re: Preview Trailer of the Nintendo NX Confirmed for 20th October
They should call it the NX.
Re: Editorial: Some Context on the Nintendo NX 'This Week' Claims
@AlexSora89 Nicely played.

Re: Random: Nintendo NX Rumours From French Media and an Analyst Report, While Zelda Williams Fends Off Anxious Fans
Given the wailing and rumour-gnashing surrounding this thingy, I misread the word "bullish" from the first bullet point in the Macquarie report.
Zelda Williams seems like a pretty cool person, however, so there's that.
Re: Weirdness: Desperation for NX Details Even Makes an Old Forum Post Interesting
This is great and all, but will Socks the Cat be released on the NX?
And what's up with Socks II, Supply-Side's Revenge?
Re: Lost SNES Game Socks The Cat Hits Kickstarter
Final boss...Newt or Trent, Newt or Trent...
Duh. Ken Starr.
Rip 'im a new one, Socks.

Re: New Play Control! Pikmin Arrives on the North American eShop This Thursday
I still have my 'Cube copy - which I haven't played yet. Doofus.
If they release Pikmin 2, I'll probably nab it.
Re: Animal Crossing: New Leaf's Fall Update Will Handle The Weeding So You Don't Have To
@Yoshi Ha! Drunk with power!
(Thanks.)
Re: Animal Crossing: New Leaf's Fall Update Will Handle The Weeding So You Don't Have To
I've been thinking of getting the game, but the specter of weeding has kinda held me back. Now that it's 20 bucks, I got no more excuse.
Re: Review: Adventure Labyrinth Story (3DS eShop)
With a couple hundred in the backlg and a penchant to replay Zelda games anyway, "Not Bad" don't cut it.
Re: Out Now: Eight More Games Join the Nintendo Selects Range in North America
Fiddlesticks! Just paid $40.00 for LM: DM, and haven't even started it yet. Maybe I'll take a flier on Animal Crossing. Short play times sounds good, but I'm not sure I'm willing to invest in it long-term.
Re: Nintendo of America Expands Nintendo Selects Range and Unveils Small New 3DS Bundle
Dang it! Just bought LMDM for $40.00.
Re: Feature: Ten Ideal Launch Year Nintendo NX Games
I'd like to see Nintendo gather user-created Super Mario Maker levels into an expansive disc-based game. Many, many possibilities.
And Okami 2, with remastered Okami. I know, I know, but I'd like it anyway.
