Thank god there isn't a new Skylanders game this year. This year is turning out to be better than 2016 already!
To be honest, all the Skylanders franchise has done is make the same game over and over again, release some new toys along with it, and sell you their figures/games for ridiculous amounts of money which will probably be worth half the amount you paid at launch in a week. Its even hurt Spyro and Crash, with Spyro being permanently a Skylanders character. Thankfully, Crash was just a cameo, similar to Bowser and Donkey Kong in Superchargers.
The Castlevania series is certainly not a kids franchise, even back in the NES days. Games with grim reapers, demons, and holy water don't scream E for Everyone to me.
Anyway, the show is already looking to be a mess. The message Adi Shaknar gave to IGN is so unprofessional. Its pathetic. Saying the F-word in every sentence will probably give you an R-rating, but that shouldn't be why it gets one.
I wonder why they decided to translate Comaster now. Pokemon Comaster (Japanese version of Duel) has been out in Japan for well over a year. I also tried this game out for a bit, and couldn't really find it enjoyable. Sorry, mobile Pokemon games, but you certainly aren't wowing me.
I'm A-OK watching from home. I live in Florida anyway, so this isn't exactly an option. I'm just hoping pre-orders online open right after so I can make sure I get one.
I know this is SEGA and its Sonic's 25th anniversary, but how about making a game that isn't Sonic? People have been wanting something like a new Jet Set Radio for years.
I don't like how people consider Super Mario Maker the best game of 2015 most of the time. It REALLY depends on the type of person you're dealing with. If you're someone that has a lot of creativity and imagination, then Super Mario Maker is a dream come true. However, if you're someone like me who doesn't have much fun in creating levels, then half of the game is worthless.
I'm not really excited for this. I do want to get the amiibo bundle, and probably just sell the game off to someone who would want it more than me, and I will keep the amiibo. I'm more of an amiibo collector than a cutesy game player.
Honestly, I don't even think Project Cars will release on Nintendo's NX system, considering its less powerful than both of the Wii U's competitors. This makes me want to buy a PS4.

Although I already have the Wii U Version, I'm absolutely gonna double dip. This game is just too good!
Re: Pokkén Tournament Falls Short in the EVO 2017 Player's Choice Vote
I'm not surprised about UMVC3 getting in, but I'd like to have Pokken at a big tournament like EVO for a change. Could be cool to watch!

@Alshain01 The iPhone 7 includes an adapter that lets you use headphones via the charger port.

Re: E3 2016: Hyperkin's "April Fools" Game Boy Phone Attachment Is Alive And Well
@andrew20 Its probably gonna be at 12 Eastern and NL put the wrong time.
Re: Runbow Pocket and SEVERED Confirmed for the eShop
The second physical N3DS exclusive is a Nindie? It's a good game, but I'm not sure how I feel about that.
Re: Pokkén Tournament Update 1.3 Promises To Bring Some Balance
@Zach777 None. xD
Re: Kirby: Planet Robobot Passes 300,000 Sales in Japan's Media Create Results
@TheNomad Why would there be a MyNintendo discount for a game that just released?
Re: Disney Infinity Has Been Cancelled
That kind of sucks. I have a collection of 30+ figures. Maybe this will make them increase in price?
Re: Feature: Ten Game Boy Advance Games You Should Play
So instead of having Golden Sun and the Gen 3 Pokemon games, you have Ninja Five-O and Chu Chu Rocket?

Re: 13 Pokémon Movies Are Now Available on iTunes and Google Play
@Nico07 I'm sure some Walmart stores have it in stock. Speaking of which, I gotta get some new Blu-Rays myself.
Re: Bayonetta 2 to Have a Standalone North American Release on 19th February
Judging from the fact its coming on the 19th, maybe the DLC will also release on that day?
Re: Garchomp, Braixen and Mewtwo Will Join the Fight in Pokkén Tournament
@Spin None. That character is being revealed in 2 days.

Re: Nintendo Download: 31st December (North America)
1080 Snowboarding? I couldn't even understand how the controls work in the game.
Re: Get Up to Speed with Awesome Games Done Quick 2016
Only 1 Pokemon speedrun? Y U DO DIS 2 M3!?
Re: Guide: The Best 2015 Black Friday Nintendo Deals in the US
Angry Birds for $1 sure is tempting, but I do have to pay for shipping which sorta ruins the price.
Also, Smash 3DS for only $25? Might have to pick that up. Hopefully they put the decreased price online.
Re: Nintendo Confirms Seven Million amiibo Sales in the US
Only 7 mmillion in the U.S?
Seriously, every time I go into a store I see someone holding at least some amiibo.
Re: Updated Mario Kart 8 Wii U Hardware Bundle in North America Includes Both DLC Packs
When you think about, its not that good of a deal.
I'd rather get the Mario Kart 8 Bundle that comes with Nintendoland.
Re: Chibi-Robo!: Zip Lash Will Support Plenty of amiibo, Genre Given as 'Whipping Platformer'
@shani It's not a new IP. Chibi-Robo has been around for a decade.

Re: Man Goes On Quest To Buy Every Single amiibo In Australia In 24 Hours
He didn't buy a single one. I don't know why people are getting so worked up about this.
@Nintendofan83
Its Australia. Our commons are their unicorns.
Re: Men Suspected of Planning Pokémon World Championships Gun Attack Denied Bail
@JasonH @TimLatshaw #FlappyFalco I hope they get the final sentence they deserve.
A life sentence might be a bit too harsh, as they didn't harm anyone, even if they had the intent.
Re: Men Suspected of Planning Pokémon World Championships Gun Attack Denied Bail
Only 4 months!?
They should be held for well over a year. They were planning to kill hundreds of people.
Re: VS. Excitebike Launches Into Some Races Very Soon In North America
They really should've made some type of feature in which you could send tracks so other people could play them like Mario Maker.
Re: Netflix Update Goes Live on Wii U
@luchacomics Thats literally impossible. The Wii U can only run one application at a time.
Re: Gorgeous Xenoblade Chronicles X Special Edition Confirmed for North America
Are you that cheap enough to have a soundtrack not on a CD but a USB?
The USB looks cool though.

If anything, they would have to be buffed. They give almost no damage.
Re: Nintendo Download: 27th August (North America)
A lotta stuff, but still nothing for me this week.
Re: Retro Studios is Still Busy, With Job Listings Providing a Timely Reminder
@Hero-of-WiiU
You would get fired pretty quickly if you did that.
Re: This Controller Wants to Bring the 'Next Gen' to NES
Interesting.
I know its supposed to be an NES controller, but why the two analog sticks?
Re: Xenoblade Chronicles X Will Be Playable at Gamescom Next Week
I bothered translating.

Re: Nintendo's Official UK Store Promises More amiibo Stock Today

Welp, looks like I will have to pay $40 for an amiibo that someone in the UK got for MSRP!
Re: Super Smash Bros. Battles Its Way Into US Top 10 for the First Half of 2015
Good news.
If only it would tell us which version sold more than the other. I know that its both games combined, but I'd still like to know.
Re: Here's What The Mario & Sonic Rio 2016 Olympics Arcade Game Looks Like
Sigh.
I never even liked the concept of an arcade olympics game. However if I see one, I guess I will try it.
Re: EVO Players Loved Hyperkin's New GameCube-Inspired ProCube Pad
I'm expecting this to be in the $25-30 range, like most third-party controllers.
It totally looks comfortable to hold, I will be picking one up if the price is good.

Re: Mario & Sonic At The Rio 2016 Olympics Is Getting An Arcade Release
Honestly, this is very late. I knew this around 2 weeks ago.
Re: Nintendo Still Hasn't Decided Which Zelda Timeline Tri Force Heroes Fits Into
Why not make voice chat an optional setting? I feel like Splatoon should do the same.
Re: Nintendo President Satoru Iwata Passes Away Aged 55
This made me cry inside. It was so sudden! I loved Iwata-San and I wish I never had to say this for years:
Good-Bye, Iwata-San
