I'll miss it for sure. Having the map on the second screen made a much better RPG experience in general. However, since I believe the feature was taken away in order to 3rd party have an easier time porting games to the system, I'm okay with that.
I'm definetely picking this up and I also want Street Fighter 2 and Alpha 2. Hopefully, they release as soon as possible. I'm also expecting Mario RPG to show up on 3DS, but I think it'll take a while...
@Whopper744 It makes sense! I have it on the Wii U and I have beaten the story mode inly. I'll buy it again because I like being able to play it on my New 3DS.
Perfect game! I love it on the New 3DS and have a lot of fun playing it. It's the only game that I play when I take a short break on Fire Emblem Fates.

My favorite will always be Ocarina of Time, since it was my first Zelda game and made me fall in love with the series. Majora's Mask is my second favorite, also the second Zelda game I played. The third is a toss between Minish Cap and A Link Between Worlds, but I ended up voting for Minish Cap. I never completed A Link To The Past, which a plan to rectify at some point. Wind Waker HD was awesome and I'm looking forward to replaying Twilight Princess in HD.
@AyeHaley The second half does drag a bit, but you can turn off random battles and be done with it quicker. The side quests on that part also don't add a lot. I particularly liked the whole game and was not bored by any part of it because I did turned off randol battles and I liked to strategize on the side quests, but I understand people who didn't.
Really want this to come to the west as I didn't play the original on PS2 and always heard good things about it. However, since it's Dragon Quest, I'm not holding my breath as SquareEnix refuses to localize these games...
I could participate in only one session but it was brilliant! I knew that I'd get the game but the demo was so good that now I know I'll be playing often when it launches.
@Takerkaneanite6 It's not automatically available. I diwnloaded tje update but still don't have 200cc because I didn't get a medal on all of 150cc tracks...
I wouldn't mind 2 separate releases.
However, I don't think the same model will be adopted in the west. Fire Emblem is gaining popularity but it isn't as strong as Zelda or Pokemon to pull this off. I could be wrong though...
I thinl it's fake but if that were true I would buy it in a heartbeat. I loved the first Paper Mario on Nintendo 64 and never played TTYD. I also think handhelds are a much better fit for RPGs and Nintendo isn't doing as many remasters as the other companies so it wouldn't annoy me if they did this one
I never got to finish the any of the games on the Metroid Prime Trilogy. I always started them but I don't usually like playing first-person games, so I never got too far in any of them. For me, Metroid Other M is a much better game, because I had so much fun that I played it all in one month. However, I did buy the trilogy today so maybe I can finally get into the games.
@DualWielding The situation is more complex than that. Brazilian taxes are really high and even though I'm disappointed by this move, it is understandable.
@daniruy You do have a lot of good points. Teachers here are undervalued. My sister could be a portuguese teacher but the payment was so low that she went to work editing books because the payment was higher.
@Savino I also live in Minas and I agree with you. Things aren't perfect but it has improved a LOT. There's a lot of room to improve though. About Nintendo leaving Brazil. It's bad but we can get by. A lot of niche games, like almost all of the RPGs from Atlus, I had to import and some games I had to import because they launched here much later than un the US and the wait was killing me. MercadoLivre, our ebay equivalent, always has some good importers and I just hope they don't raise the price... Hopefully,thing will improve.
I can't decide. The only thing I know is that the 4th gen is my least favourite. And the first 3 gens were vastly improved in the remakes. I got all the pokemons playing FireRed and spent most time battling on Emerald. I also loved Yellow when it came out and I love all the inovation brought by X/Y and OR/AS. You can't go wrong with pokemon as even when they're bad they're still very good.
Bayonetta 2 is my Wii U and overall game of the year by a large margin. I loved every second of it. Smash is also great, but Bayonetta 2 is the reason I bought my Wii U.
Great read! I'm also loving the game and I play mostly on classic mode. I'm gonna beat it with all the characters! I love the difficult scale on classic mode and I still couldn't beat the game on Nothing Harder as the final boss is really hard. I played a few matches online - For Glory With Anyone - and most of them were great! I didn't have lag playing 1x1 matches but Smash is other story, even though I had a few good matches with that. I'm gravitating towards Lucina, Sheik and C. Falcon as my main characters but I wanna try everyone.
Other than that I'll definetely get Smash Bros U and Captain Toad. I hold out on Watch_Dog but I'll wait a little longer because I know its price will drop fast.
A only have a Wii U right now but I plan on getting a second one for all the third party games (specially Kingdom Hearts 3 and Final Fantasy XV). I don't know if I'll get the PS4 or the Xbox One. Last generation I had a Wii and a PS3, but the PS4 still isn't appealling enough for me... Meanwhile I enjoy my Wii U and 3DS
I'm continuing my RPG streak as I'll be playing Bravely Default and Lightning Returns: FF XIII. Between sessions of those 2 big RPGs I'll be playing Donkey Kong: Tropical Freeze, which is quite fun.
I just finished Phoenix Wright - Ace Attorney: Justice For All. The game was incredible and I'd love to start Trials and Tribulations already. However, I think I'll put that on hold so I can continue my journey on Etrian Odyssey Untold: The Milleniun Girl.
I REALLY want that all the games announced get released over here! I loved Persona 4 Golden on my Vita and Persona 4 Arena. I'm currently playing Persona 3 Portable on my PSP and I'm very excited for Persona 5 on PS3 and this one on the 3DS, althugh I know I'll also problably get the rhythm game on the VIta and the new Arena.
My plans are the same of Anthony Dickens. I'll be playing the Wind Waker HD which I got yesterday and found to be completely beautiful. I only got past the first dungeon on the original, but I know I'll finish this one. I'll also be playing Beyond Two Soul that I also got yesterday. So far the game is very good and I'm eager to learn more about Jodie.
@Sanquine It will release globally on October 12th. I'm also looking forward to playing this and already pre-ordered both versions (got a pretty good discount), so I hope the day arrives soon.
I finally finished Devil Survivor Overclocked last week. This week I'm going to beat Pokemon Black 2, which I'm devouring because I want to have a little break from Pokemon before X and Y. I already got the 8 badges, so I'll just finish the plans of Team Plasma and have my way with the Elite 4. Other than that I'm going to play a LOT of Pikmin 3. I bought it today and the little of what I played has impressed me.
I played a lot of Runner 2 on my WiiU, but now I'm on vacation, so portables is the way to go. I'm trying to beat Project X Zone (I'm ate chapter 36, so I know I'm close). I'm also playing Ocarina of Time 3D and The World Ends With You again as I can't get tired of these games. Other than that, I have to check on my town on Animal Crossing and, if I have the time, I'll star playing Dream Team.

Re: Poll: Nintendo Switch Delivers Single Screen Gaming - Will You Miss the Dual Screen Concept?
I'll miss it for sure. Having the map on the second screen made a much better RPG experience in general. However, since I believe the feature was taken away in order to 3rd party have an easier time porting games to the system, I'm okay with that.

Re: Review: The Legend of Legacy (3DS)
The complete lack of story or interesting characters really put me off this game...

@dkxcalibur Wasn't it confirmed that this title will have download play? If so, you'll probably need only one copy of the game.

Re: Platinum Hopes to Bring "More From Bayonetta" in 2015
Anything would make me happy, but if I can dream wildly, I want Bayonetta 3 for Wii U, DLC of Bayonetta on Smash Bros and a Bayonetta Game on 3DS.

Re: Game of the Year: Nintendo Life's Staff Awards 2014
