Both the name and the denpa men is hurting the games sales in the west. It's an reaelly interesting game, but I'm sure a more appealing design and name would have sold the game to many more people. It needs to be rebranded, maybe with some sort of Monsters instead of the mens. That is if they want the game to sell more.
I suppose this is the 3DS team, not the Wii U team. I have seen a lot of people saying they should focus on X, but these guys are supposed to be developing on handhelds anyways.
@Sunnymj Indeed. Loads of water flooding everywhere.
More on topic though, it was about time they did something here. Haven't seen a Nintendo commercial since 2009 here, and no one knows what a Wii U is. It doesn't help as much as TV ads though.
@element187 I can't say I agree that Resident Evil on 3ds look terrible. At least it's no excuse that makes the graphics of this game ok. They can do a lot better.
You should try to get an interview with Blake Ritson, since he has been a voice actor in both xenoblade and the last story! I loved his character in xenoblade!
I'm not sure if Ubi really understands this. I didn't want Rayman Legends. I wanted a game to play on my Wii U in feb. When they are releasing it in october (at least around that time) I have plenty of other stuff that are higher up on my list. They can ad as many levels as they want, cause I ain't paying for 'em. I'll support watch dogs and AC4 though. Spinter cell is pretty interesting too.
Monster hunter on wii u and gunman clive on 3ds. And I soon need to pick up the last story, need for speed, lego city, fire emblem and luigis mansion. Too many good games at one time -.-
@Five-seveN Yeah, not to mention that the few times I try to use coins, they just end up "unlocking" an already unlocked puzzle piece. I'm not sure how nintendo thinks we in the smaller places are going to even come close to finish all these puzzles.
@Lan As far as I remember dead space 3 (I guess this is the main game you are talking about) needed to sell 4 million to break even. When you only sell 1 million, you loose a poopiedoodledingdongston of money. That's just the way it works. Nintendo does the same, but fire emblem doesn't cost that much to make.
I am not sure of what to make of what he said, but I would never have gotten over losing Iwata. He really is the most respectable CEO I have ever heard about. And if somebody should leave their seats, then I think it really should be the ones leading nintendo uk, and the whole nintendos marketing department.
I think they are going to add an area in the game. I was on mynintendonews yesterday, and I saw that nintendo had planned a "gamecube island" for the game. So maybe we get it in the remake
Oh, and: I would have posted a zelda, I mean link, but my 3ds just keeps on saying "can't let you do that, star fox"
I got one of these games with my dsi xl. I quite enjoyed it, but there were some places were I had to draw the numbers or punctuation marks, and the game never managed to get the difference on some numbers and marks (7 and 9, exclamation and question marks)
I'm still wondering why there isn't a "wii would like to play with u" ad campaign, they need to actually make the public aware of the product! (and make retro make some kinda skyrim-like game)

Re: Feature: Nintendo Games We'd Love to See in 2014
Personally after seeing that fan made youtube trailer for Majoras Mask HD the idea of a 3ds remake ain't tempting anymore.

Re: Nintendo Confirms That Miiverse on 3DS Won't Allow Friend Requests or User Messaging
That really sucks, hopefully it's something they'll do if they find a fix to the swapnote problem.

@Sunnymj Indeed. Loads of water flooding everywhere.

Re: Guide: How To Capture Video And Screenshots From Your 3DS
I hope Nintendo's next gen console and handheld will have built in capture cards for sharing video on Miiverse and Youtube.

Re: Pandora's Tower Creator Ganbarion Is Co-Developing Wii Fit U
They probably helped out with the meat diets.
Re: Nintendo Download: 15th August (Europe)

Re: Video: Game Freak May Have Made Solitaire and Horse Racing an Awesome Combination

I'm not so sure if I'll pick it up though.

Re: Miiverse to Arrive on 3DS "Within This Year"
It would be really cool if they managed to put it out before AC New Leaf comes out, but alas it doesn't look like it

Re: Developer Interview: Ubisoft on the Expanding Rayman Legends and Wii U's Free Challenge Mode

Re: Europe Receives Fire Emblem: Awakening Puzzle Panel
@Five-seveN Yeah, not to mention that the few times I try to use coins, they just end up "unlocking" an already unlocked puzzle piece. I'm not sure how nintendo thinks we in the smaller places are going to even come close to finish all these puzzles.
Re: Nintendo to Pull the Plug on Several Online Wii Channels
I really liked the Mii contest channel, I used it a lot before, and I actually had (at a point) the forth most popular mii in the world!
Re: Review: 50 Classic Games 3D (3DS)
There were a lot of crap in this game, but there were enough good ones for me to make it worthwhile.
Re: Talking Point: The Unreal Engine 4 Gaffe Exposes Graphical Snobbery, Again
@Magnet_Man018 Or maybe a new Ip...
ut X already has pretty awesome graphics, and we all know that nintendo games usually look better in the end than when they reveal it.
Re: Introducing: Monster Hunter 3 Ultimate for Beginners
I'm having a hard time beating Qurupeco atm. I bought the game yesterday, and it's very good! Go out and buy it!
Re: New "Luigi Code" To Provide a Fresh Take on Virtual Console Classics

Re: Talking Point: Going Mobile Will Give Miiverse a New Lease of Life
They should add an option to tag players in posts.

Re: Review: Travelling the World with Wii Street U
I love this app
Re: Pokémon Scramble U Confirmed For Spring Arrival in Japan
I really hope they will upgrade the graphics from the previous games. That artstyle was crap.
Re: Review: Ice Climber (3DS eShop / NES)
I never really understood the love for this game. After trying the ambassador version I were clueless. The jumping is impossible!
Re: Rockstar Has "Nothing New" To Report On Grand Theft Auto V Wii U

Re: Iwata Implies That He Could Step Down Over Sluggish Sales Performance
I am not sure of what to make of what he said, but I would never have gotten over losing Iwata. He really is the most respectable CEO I have ever heard about. And if somebody should leave their seats, then I think it really should be the ones leading nintendo uk, and the whole nintendos marketing department.
Re: Oliver and Spike: Dimension Jumpers Pencilled In For Wii U
"Norwegian developer." Well that certainly isn't something I hear about every day.
Re: Feature: Reimagining The Wind Waker on Wii U
I think they are going to add an area in the game. I was on mynintendonews yesterday, and I saw that nintendo had planned a "gamecube island" for the game. So maybe we get it in the remake

Re: Talking Point: Wii U's Beginnings and Challenges For 2013

Re: Talking Point: What Games Are You Playing This Weekend? - New Year Edition
Wii u: Fifa 13 and assassin's creed 3
3ds: fluidity
Re: Level 5: Fantasy Life Will Become A Series
Since it's developed by brownie brown to, is there any chance that nintendo owns, say 25% of the IP?
Re: Pokémon X & Y Legendary Details Revealed
@MrWezzle Let it spread it's legs (I know that sounded wrong) and it will feature the x pattern
