EB Games dates are usually pretty vague unless there's an actual date confirmed, last time it said Monster Hunter 4 Ultimate was releasing at the end of March when it actually ended up releasing in February so I'd take this with a grain of salt.
All I'd really want is more fun games, but even then I'm fine with holding off on getting a new console since there's already too much games I gotta finish on 3DS, Wii U and PC. Then there's also plenty of games I still wanna get like Bayonetta 1+ 2, Hyrule Warriors, Mario & Luigi: Dream Team, and many other games.
So unless you don't have a big variety of genres you like and own only one console, then there's a bunch of games you can play until Nintendo announces their next console.
Haven't bought the DLC pack yet so I just got Anna's free gift and gave the Witch Class to Lucina. Definitely useful for units who don't get a personal skill since Warp is a bit too good lol.
Also considering Japan is still getting DLC, it would be a bit dumb for us not to get the remaining DLC at this point if we already got this much from map pack 1.
I do like the series for how simple it is, but there's some flaws here and there that usually makes me not go back to it if I'm invested in other games. Random villagers moving into areas of land you don't want houses to be in, "Animal Tracks", weed if you don't play the game in a long while, sometimes having your favourite villagers leave you just because you haven't played the game in a long time and etc.
Pretty surprised Miitomo is making that much daily since I don't remember this app having ads and the incentive to use real money isn't there. As for the app itself, it's pretty fun like Tomodachi Life. However, the game gets a bit repetitive like Tomodachi Life since there isn't really much to do outside of answering questions and posting Miifotos/checking som posts from friends.
If Nintendo wants to keep people more engaged with the app, then they really need to think of some ways to get people more involved such as being able to answer questions suggested from friends or more interactive minigames since Miitomo Drop feels pretty rigged when it comes to luck.
My interest in Sun and Moon died pretty fast, hoping they'll introduce some interesting features and have custom trainers again to keep me interested. Otherwise just call me when the games get an official release date.
Considering Zelda Picross doesn't expire until October, I'm probably gonna pick up the Mario suit first, then maybe either the Donkey Kong theme or some Miitomo tickets as I already got WarioWare and the Mario theme.
My Nintendo is okay, but there's always room for improvement. Hoping there will be more apps/games that can net you Platinum Coins since relying on the weekly missions for coins will take awhile for those who can't use Miitomo.
@Meowpheel I think Gamexplain had a gameplay comparison of the two systems, if not there should at least be one on Youtube by someone. It's a bit easier to notice the difference there but it's still playable.
The Twilight Princess Picross and Warioware game seem pretty tempting to get just to do some daily stuff, I guess I'll download Miitomo then if it's gonna be awhile before the mission stuff includes actual games you can play instead of Miitomo.
Most of my purchases from Nintendo have been physical when you exclude digital-only games and DLC so I doubt I'd be able to use this much if you can't get any points for physical games.
If Codename: S.T.E.A.M. was more popular, then they probably could've turned Project Giant Robot into a STEAM spin-off that's more focused on the Giant Battles of the game.
This update is great, the matchmaking is much better now than before the update. Some of the buffed abilities like Haunt & Bomb-Sniffer is very appreciated and it gives more options of staying fresh while being able to have decent skills during a match.
I've been pretty interested in this for awhile, though it does seem pretty hard to decide if I should save my money for it and it get at launch or get it later and risk it being sold out as I'm already gonna start saving up for Monster Hunter Generations first.
Always love playing Rhythm games, I'll definitely pick this up and I'd want to try the music creator since I love the songs used in that video. Megalovania in particular.
If there's a new 3ds feature I hope Sun and Moon will use, it would probably be better framerate. It makes battles pretty distracting when you can see obvious frame drops happen occasionally.

Re: Three New Titles Have Been Added to the Humble Friends of Nintendo Bundle
@stancesp Thank you very much for the Freedom Planet code!
Re: Three New Titles Have Been Added to the Humble Friends of Nintendo Bundle
If you guys don't have Runbow, then pick up this bundle since getting it for that price along with other great games is too good to pass up.
Re: Talking Point: What Would You Like to See From Pokémon Sun and Moon?
If IVs are removed from the game, I'd be willing to go back to competitive Pokemon. IV breeding is worse than grinding for exp in an RPG.
Re: Callie and Marie Join a New Splatoon amiibo Range on 8th July
The amiibo look nice, as for their functionality, I at least find it better than the Animal Crossing amiibo use lol.

Re: Fire Emblem and Animal Crossing Franchises Are Heading to Smart Devices
I don't play mobile games in general so I doubt I'll try them, especially if they aren't free to play.
Re: Rumour: Xbox Store Listing Indicates That Mighty No. 9 Has Been Delayed Until December
I have a feeling Monster Hunter Generations will be out before Mighty No. 9 does. lol.
Re: Azure Striker Gunvolt Pack Launches for Japanese Retail on 25th August
A physical release would be nice considering I haven't played the first one yet, though I may just get it on Steam depending how the Summer Sale goes.
Re: Team Patrick Triumphs in the SpongeBob SquarePants Splatoon Splatfest
Pretty surprised Spongebob was more popular, half of my matches were with other Patrick teams.

Re: Editorial: From Metroid: Other M to Star Fox Zero, the Awkward Experimentation With Beloved Franchises
Other M was a pretty fun game, my only major complaint was not being able to use the Nunchuk with the Wii Remote for a game that has 3D movement.
Re: Here's How Much Space Monster Hunter Generations Will Wolf Up On Your 3DS
The size isn't as bad as I thought it would've been, though I'll probably go with retail again especially if it gets a pre-order bonus.
Re: Feature: Five Reasons Why We Love Animal Crossing
@wjs700 Someone else could take that role since I'd rather not dedicate myself to Animal Crossing forever lol.
Re: Video: Learn a Few Quirky Facts About the Mario Party Franchise
I don't mind the voice change, "D'oh I missed!" is much more memorable than "Oh my God!" tbh.
Re: Nintendo Life Weekly: NX Rumours Continue to Flow, Hacker Streams 3DS to PC Wirelessly and More
@zeldazero Not really, I came here for the usual Nintendo Life Weekly.

Re: Nintendo Life Weekly: NX Rumours Continue to Flow, Hacker Streams 3DS to PC Wirelessly and More
More rumors just means less articles for me to click since I stopped caring about them last year lol.
Re: Rumour: The Pokémon Company Plans to Make a Big-Budget Live-Action Pokémon Movie
Would've preferred a CGI Pokemon movie tbh.
Re: Video: Flashy New Trailer Showcases The Four Combat Styles in Monster Hunter Generations
Soon we'll be able to hunt monsters in a flashy way.
Re: Get Ready To Spend Those Platinum Points, New My Nintendo Rewards Are Live
I suppose I'll just grab the DK theme before that expires since I'm fine with wearing the sailor/school clothing lol.

Has science gone too far?

Re: Video: Grab a Rundown of all of Runbow's New and Delicious DLC
At the very least I'm getting the story DLC, maybe the Anime one as well.
Re: 13AM Games Teases April Content for Runbow
More content is always nice, it's a shame the online isn't really active these days since it's really fun with a full group.
Re: Reminder: All of the Expiry Dates to Help You Plan Your My Nintendo Rewards
Considering Zelda Picross doesn't expire until October, I'm probably gonna pick up the Mario suit first, then maybe either the Donkey Kong theme or some Miitomo tickets as I already got WarioWare and the Mario theme.
Re: Random: We Show You How to Make a "Fake NX Leak", For No Real Reason
If the NX was that then I'd probably have to buy multiple cuz it does look tasty.
Re: Feature: Breaking Down the My Nintendo Loyalty Economy, Again
My Nintendo is okay, but there's always room for improvement. Hoping there will be more apps/games that can net you Platinum Coins since relying on the weekly missions for coins will take awhile for those who can't use Miitomo.
Re: The Ace Attorney Anime Series is Waiting For You On Crunchyroll
@blackbox64 Crunchyroll comes with English subtitles for all of their anime.
Haven't bought premium yet so I gotta wait a week before I can start watching this lol.
Re: Debut Pokémon Sun and Moon Footage is Expected on 3rd April
Hoping the footage is more similar to the X and Y trailer than that short ORAS clip of Groudon and Kyogre.
Re: Nintendo NX 'Controller' Image Confirmed Fake By Its Creator
And people wonder why I don't bother with believing in rumors.
Re: Video: See How Hyrule Warriors Legends on the Original 3DS Compares to the Wii U

Re: Video: See How Hyrule Warriors Legends on the Original 3DS Compares to the Wii U
@Meowpheel Nope, it's a comparison to the old 3DS.
Re: Nintendo Life Weekly: "Leaked" NX Controller, Miitomo Japanese Launch Success and More
To be technical, salt would make you more thirsty.
Re: My Nintendo Has Gone Live in Japan, Introduces Exclusive Content and a DS Download on 3DS
The Twilight Princess Picross and Warioware game seem pretty tempting to get just to do some daily stuff, I guess I'll download Miitomo then if it's gonna be awhile before the mission stuff includes actual games you can play instead of Miitomo.
Re: Toadette is Next in Line for Super Mario Maker's Mystery Mushroom Unlocks
Out of all the times I give back Mario Maker to my friend, it has to be when they finally release a Toadette outfit lol.
Re: Smash 4 Receives Yet Another Patch
Well, that came out of nowhere.
like LucasRe: Admit It, You Want This Splatoon Splattershot Water Pistol
Sounds cool, though I'd prefer to have the Hero Shot Replica.
Re: Video: Shigeru Miyamoto Accentuates His Awesomeness With an amiibo 'Impersonation'
Gotta impress Bowser Jr. somehow.
Re: My Nintendo Rewards Start on 17th March in Japan, Alongside Miitomo Launch

Re: Future Of Project Giant Robot Is Still Up In The Air, Says Miyamoto
If Codename: S.T.E.A.M. was more popular, then they probably could've turned Project Giant Robot into a STEAM spin-off that's more focused on the Giant Battles of the game.
Re: Video: Today Is Officially Mar10 Day
Nothing much happens during March 10, last year I was focusing on Monster Hunter during that day and now it's Fire Emblem lol.
Re: Controversial FPS Paranautical Activity Will Be Plumbing The Depths Of The Wii U eShop Soon
Lord Gaben will live forever until Half Life 3 releases.
Re: Video: Here's All the Changes in Splatoon's Latest Update to Version 2.6

Re: Nintendo Warns It'll Block Rule Breaker's Access to Super Mario Maker's Online Features

Re: Monster Hunter Generations is Heading to 3DS This Summer
@JaxonH It's gonna be like old times, but now everything is flashy.
This announcement alone made the direct amazing.
Re: Tadpole Treble is Expected to Launch in March on the Wii U eShop
Always love playing Rhythm games, I'll definitely pick this up and I'd want to try the music creator since I love the songs used in that video. Megalovania in particular.
Re: Talking Point: The New 3DS Can Revive the Portable Family With Help From Pokémon and amiibo
If there's a new 3ds feature I hope Sun and Moon will use, it would probably be better framerate. It makes battles pretty distracting when you can see obvious frame drops happen occasionally.
