If Sony and MS can make a killing releasing updated versions of their last gen games, where the hell is my HD Super Mario Galaxy 1 & 2?? Or, what about some HD GC games?
Found Link, Mario, and Yoshi at Target in south Tulsa yesterday. They had 2 of each. I bought 2 of each. $8.99 a piece. (I have 2 sons and they would have fought over who got to play with Mario, etc. So, I got 'em each one.)
They're nice figures. I do fear that the quality of plastic - an easily pliable, almost rubbery plastic - is not conducive to much actual play time. Probably best to take these figures and stand 'em somewhere, as opposed to actually play with them.
It is the reason why Nintendo systems are still relegated in the cultural conscience as a "kid's system". I don't know a serious adult gamer who would turn down a chance to jam on a good Mario game. Therefore, the games are not to blame for the misperception.
Full online functionality has been the name of the game since 2005. Nintendo STILL does not get that. And, while I'll keep buying Nintendo systems for the Nintendo games, any multiplatform games are being bought for any system OTHER THAN a Nintendo system. Until Nintendo can give multi-system owners a reason to change that statement, they will be playing catch-up.
NOTE: I LOVE my WiiU! I believe it to be the best system currently on the market. (I didn't say "most powerful," I said "best".) While I love me some local co-op Mario World 3D, having full online functionality would be the cherry on top and would have moved some systems, IMO.

I'd stand in the rain to throw my money at that!
