I will agree with this review, even if I think it is biased by nostalgia a little bit. However, that being said, I will forever maintain that Tales of Phantasia is not only the greatest RPG on the SNES, but probably the greatest RPG of all time. It's a shame it never came to the US until it was ported to the GBA. But then again, my opinions vary from most people's anyway, since in my mind, Final Fantasy V > Final Fantasy VI.
This sounds fine to me. Brawl was tons of fun. And if you think about it this way "making it less hard" = making tripping optional. But maybe I'm an optimist. The way I see it, do what you want, Sakurai-san, just give us Mega Man, Simon Belmont, Geno and Ridley!
The video does put Hamferno and Smugleaf into a little better light, but that water starter is ugly as sin. Sorry, but it's true. Hopefully its evolutions improve drastically.
Really, the only changes that need to be made are to abandon game-specific friend codes and just have one code per console, period. That plus the addition of some kind of Achievement/Trophy system. Mario Kart Wii (as much as I hate its rubber-banding and other problems in gameplay) got Online play right on. Easy way to find & add friends, plus an option to play anonymously without friend codes. That is, IMO, what Nintendo needs to do; and that is not so back-breaking as to necessitate a monthly fee.

Re: New Sonic 4 Trailer Almost Makes Up for Delay
At least the running animation looks better now. When I saw the leaked footage before, I thought it looked terrible.

Re: Sonic & Knuckles
This may indeed bring me out of my long drought of buying stuff for the VC!
