A whole month without Wii VC is really upsetting to me. u_u Mostly because I know MegaMan X2 and Lufia are sitting in their que. What's the hold up? Why a whole month with nothing? smh
"Easel-y" the best review tagline I've read in awhile. n_n Also, the review isn't too shabby either. Looks interesting and I love the paintings you made. Well done Zach.
#14 makes a good point. Plus the a looooot of the later levels required multi-touch on the phone version. Something the DS isn't capable of doing. Hopefully the added new content instead of ripping a lot out.
Wow that looks reeeeeeeally sharp. The lack of on-line make the price tag not worth it to me though. Without, it's just a Nostalgia-ville with a fresh coat of paint. Good review Thomas.
Just trying to put things into perspective. People are whining about about having to wait 24 hours or less for some dusty old NES games. While the US has to wait a year to infinity for some decent Wii RPGS.
It will be wicked if you can take pictures around your house and the show ghost coming out woodwork. O: It would keep you from those late night snacks tor sure.
I love the idea of no HUD on screen and all on the controller. This would make the game look amazing and offer a deeper immersion than every other Zelda game.
"A Japanese analyst told Bloomberg that Nintendo share prices had increased on the back of reports of a 3DS-related event to take place on 13th September..."
You should all be ashamed of yourselves for biting so hard on a sorry trolling highly unlikely merger comment. Pathetic. smh
What a phantastic and unboolieveable review, really to die for. You must have been like a man possessed when you were writing. Definitely captures the spirit of the game. I ghost to get this game now.
My most memorable Metroid moment was when playing Super Metroid. Right after you unlock wall jump you have to climb a really really tall wall using your new skill.

I destroyed the pieces of the pieces to the controller. I smashed a lot of controllers in my day but never to the degree of that moment. I still have a scar on my hand from punching the shrapnel. Stupid wall jump......
Arkham Asylum set the bar so high it will be hard for any other super hero game to come close to living up to the new standard. I would live to see it done though. I mean there is so much story and game-play potential surrounding every comic book I can't believe how few great games there are for them.
@wheels - It's been a bit since I looked into importing it but with shipping it was about $80 (50£) for a DS game which are normally priced $35 (21£) here.
Who ever made that tweet is fired....or at the very least stripped of all Twitter duties. People shouldn't judge a whole company on one employees stupidity. I expect a retraction statement by the morning.
Unless its an all new game I don't really care if it comes to 3DS or Wii U. Myself and a loooooooot of other MH fans will have already played MH portable 3rd in glorious HD when they release it on the PS3.

I couldn't look away.
Re: Review: Shin Megami Tensei: Devil Survivor Overclocked (3DS)
Amazing game. I love the addition of voice acting as it melts away the text heavy aspect. Highly recommended for fans of the SRPG genre.
Nice review Patrick.

Re: Talking Point: The Most Memorable Nintendo 64 Games
Loved all the games on your list. My other favorites were Blast Corps., WWF No Mercy, and Donkey Kong 64.
Re: A New Zelda Figurine is Available for Pre-Order
O.O That is beautiful. Not $449.00 worth of beautiful but still amazing.
Re: Rumour: Next Smash Bros. Could Be Called 'Universe'
Universe makes a ton of sense. As in Universal since its on multiple systems.
Image came from 4chan so it should be taken with a grain of salt for sure.
Re: Review: We Sing: UK Hits (Wii)
Psssssh....bunch of haters in this comment section. I'm buying a PAL Wii just so I can import this game.

Re: Take a Look at Square Enix's Upcoming 3DS JRPG
That caption photo is too suggestive. I'm not buying this classless game.
Re: Monster Hunter 4 to Burn Up Your 3DS
This announcement should improve the chances of 3G making it state-side. It could help develop/test the waters of the market.

Brilliant game though. Easily worth 500 points.
Re: Solatorobo Goes Gold, Gets NA Release Date
Wow, its coming out in a couple weeks!? Glad you guys posted this or I would have probably missed it. @_@

Re: Dragon Quest X Goes Online for Wii and Wii U
If it sticks to the rigid lined-up across from each other turn-based action it sounds like the most boring MMO game ever.
Re: Nintendo Download: 1st September 2011 (North America)
Can't wait to see the House review.

It's 24 hours. Get a grip whiners.
Re: NES Ambassador Games for North America Available Now
Poor NOE. If only they had an awesome Wii exclusive RPG like XenoBlades to play instead.......

Re: These Are The 10 NES Ambassador Games in Japan
Golf is the only bad game on the list. Thats solid.
Re: Review: Let's Create! Pottery (DSiWare)
Darn, the idea of playing with pot and getting glazed sound relaxing and groovy. :[
Re: What Are Aonuma's Controller Ideas for Wii U Zelda?
I love the idea of no HUD on screen and all on the controller. This would make the game look amazing and offer a deeper immersion than every other Zelda game.
Re: Let's Create! Pottery on DSiWare This Week
Day one for me. Been waiting years for a pot sim.

Re: Rumour: Nintendo Preparing Dual Analogue 3DS Revamp
Not cool.
I would like to see an Ambassador 2.0 program and receive 20 more games as compensation. n_n

Re: Feature: 20 Years of the Super NES
The Golden Age of RPG's and a controller that forever changed the game. One of the best systems ever......by far Nintendo's best.
Re: Nintendo Download: 18th August 2011 (North America)
Dear Nintendo,
Make your download service not suck.

Re: Zelda: Skyward Sword Soars to North America 20th November
Meh. I am going to wait for reviews. This looks worse than Twilight Princess. You fly around on birds and bowl ffs.

Re: Review: Avenging Spirit (3DS Virtual Console / Game Boy)
What a phantastic and unboolieveable review, really to die for. You must have been like a man possessed when you were writing. Definitely captures the spirit of the game. I ghost to get this game now.
Re: Feature: 3DS Games Worth Buying Before Mario
@ #15 - They added more than just voices and 3D to Overclocked. They added 20 new demons plus an addition day to the end of the game.
Overclocked is going to be awesome. Less than 2 weeks away as well. n_n
Re: Nintendo Download: 11th August 2011 (North America)
Solid week. Avenging Spirit sounds interesting.

Re: You Can Buy Your Zelda Symphony Tickets Today
I've been trying to find a date to this but women keep laughing at me when I say Zelda Orchestra. One woman even peed her pants laughing.
Re: Nintendo Download: 28th July 2011 (North America)
No VC is so fail (again). Nintendo must be saving it all up to blow that big hot load of 20 free games.
Re: Just Why Is La-Mulana Taking So Long?
Sounds like they want the want a global release to avoid other areas from hearing how awful and buggy their game is before it comes out.
At least that's how I am reading this. :3
Re: Review: Captain America: Super Soldier (Wii)
Arkham Asylum set the bar so high it will be hard for any other super hero game to come close to living up to the new standard. I would live to see it done though. I mean there is so much story and game-play potential surrounding every comic book I can't believe how few great games there are for them.
Re: Points Burning a Hole in Your Pocket? Try Burn the Rope
Nintendo sets the prices for games, correct?

Re: Nintendo Gets Around to Releasing Inazuma Eleven in UK
I've come close to importing this game soooo many times. I know they won't but I wish they would localize it.

Re: Here's How You Play Capcom's 3D Sound Game
Guessing the west won't see that game after watching that vid. O.o Looks really really interesting though. (Just wouldn't ever play it out in public)
