these "it should only play games" comments are hilarious.
The cold hard FACT is, Nintendo WANTS you to use their devices for MORE than games. They WANT you to use it as your go to media hub. THey wouldn't have implemented all those features if they didn't want to
@Syrek24 "Third parties just didn't care and were sabatoging Nintendo from the start, that much is clear, hence why I couldn't care less about most third party developers any more. Their arrogance and lack of ethics is utterly disgusting and we should not be supporting such slimy business practices/games."
Yeezus, you make Nintendo out to be a saint when that isn't the case. lol # third parties sabotaging Nintendo. Nintendo sabotaged themselves on more than one occasion. lol @ calling third parties arrogant. You must've not been born during the NES era when Nintendo's arrogance was at its peak. That's the definition of arrogant
Mother 1 was localized 20 plus years ago already. It's been confirmed for years that ROM wasn't a fan translation by one of the members of the localization team.
There was no real localization done. All they did was dump the ROM onto an official Nintendo emulator.
Good thing the writer of this piece isn't a marketer for Nintendo...a campaign emphasizing that the Wii U gamepad is a tablet killer is just downright laughable. It would be a fail of epic proportions.
So are we calling anything that resembles a tablet, a tablet now?
Is my 3DS an iPod killer then? It has all the functionality of an iPod plus more - touch screen, apps, games, camera, video, music player.
Comments about games being free on droid/iOS always amuse me. Its like why bring it up? It has no bearing. So what if it was? There are more than a handful of DSi/eShop games that were once free mobile games.
I'm not sure how many others feel this way, but could we have puzzles locked and unlock as we progress?
I mean it's neat being able to jump to puzzle 99 and solve it right away...but on the other hand, everything unlocked sort of kills that satisfaction of progression or that feeling you are making headway through the game.
@KFlow325 I see your point, but on the same token I don't see why you or anyone else is harping on the numeric score.
In the long run, the numeric score shouldn't dictate the verdict of the game. The content of the review should.
Additionally, this is on person's view on the game, and if they didn't like it, they didn't like it. If they felt the number was justified to themselves, that shouldn't be an issue overall.
I bought it, it's okay. Disappointed that a good portion of the games repeat between the different "themes" and in general. There's like 3-4 jigsaw puzzles alone.

@BigWhoady

@JLPick LMAO. Nintendo does NOT have more money than Sony/M$ combined.
Stop making up stuff to prop up nintendo.

Re: Capcom Releases Phoenix Wright: Ace Attorney - Dual Destinies on iOS, at a Lower Price
It's hilarious to see how Nintendo Life and GameFAQs harbor such bitterness to mobile gaming/Capcom/Square/etc.
In the grand scheme of things, your precious little handheld is safe from the big bad mobile gaming wolf.
Each has their market/demographics. Your precious 3DS will still have its games.
The mobile pricing model makes sense, if you know your background too.
Re: Feature: Where Are The Super Nintendo 3D Classics?
Why do people always use homebrew/emulating as evidence?
It means absolutely nothing
Re: Review: Bike Rider DX2: Galaxy (3DS eShop)
@Stargazer
I don't understand why you think they couldn't.
That's like saying/asking why you like whatever games you like.

See how silly that sounds.

Comments about games being free on droid/iOS always amuse me. Its like why bring it up? It has no bearing. So what if it was? There are more than a handful of DSi/eShop games that were once free mobile games.
Some have even gotten retail physical releases.
Re: Tappingo 2 Confirmed for a Summer Release on 3DS eShop
Great news, first game rocks.
May I make a suggestion/request @HugoSmits?

Re: Review: Mega Man II (3DS eShop / Game Boy)
@Neko_Chan
uh so they don't skip games?
Regardless of what you think of the game, it's stupid if they released only the "good" ones...since that in itself is subjective.
Releasing them in order makes more sense.
Now if only Konami would follow suite. Still waiting on Contra and CV3.
Re: Review: Mega Man II (3DS eShop / Game Boy)
@KFlow325
Next you'll say "favourite" is spelled wrong too huh?
Or is your bias for this game having you lash out over the review?
