As one who's been a fan of Fire Emblem since the GBA era, I really couldn't care less. I'm playing this for a tactical strategic experience, besides even if this was avalible to every character, wouldn't that be..creepy? Inviting a comrade to your house just to pet their face is disturbing plus touching their face anyways would make their face get dirty and clog up pores, I don't know.
The good thing is the price drop, the bad thing is that this makes it hell for those of us who like collecting games and don't have even one of these yet
Here's how you win a Splatfest: Step 1.) Discover which is the most popular with younger players (or usually, the cooler one) Step 2.) Choose the opposite one Step 3.) Profit
@Octane For $60, that's the average size of a Fighting Game roster from what I know, a lot of people here on NLife have their expectations set way too high with Smash's huge and girthy roster
If this is: A.) Real B.) Good C.) Nothing like SPM and SS and moreso to OG Paper Mario and TTYD My lifelong hopes as a kid playing TTYD will finally come true
This is awesome because it's so unique! We have a lot of Fire-types in here and a lot of them are some of my favorites! As Fire is my favorite type, choosing just one or two of them to fully learn and master will be a challenge in of itself!
Didn't the original concept for Zelda 1 include the option to choose between a sword and a boomerang as your main weapon? Maybe something similar could be implemented with Link being a sword-user and Linkle being a bow-user, both being able to get the other weapons but with lesser power and skill than the opposite gender who is versed in it?
That would require us to live in a world where Nintendo isn't so annoyingly anal about their properties and trying to protect them from the very thing keeping them alive. Dear Lord, Nintendo, just learn already.
I guess people will cease to act like entitled brats, on the flipside I'm very excited for Kamui (Sounds better than their English name in my opinion) I'm a big Fire Emblem fan and his moveset actually looks interesting, I expected him for a "Smash 5" when Fates was release but I also wanted Lucina to be cut for that game in favor of Aqua (or Azura I think her English name is...I don't know anymore) because she's a Dancer class that uses Lances, both of which we haven't seen in Smash, and Lucina's uninspired (not Skill based, like Astra or Aether) moveset disappointed me a bit.
If we get a Minecraft rep before Banjo and Kazooie I promise to scream at the top of my lungs while I watch this right after school in the library with my friends. Also, go Banjo!
We could've had cool partners from the Paper Mario series return and such but instead the only thing we got from that series was the awful Grassland-Desert-Water-Forest-Ice-Lava-Bowser copy-paste format from Sticker Star...
@Robotron2084 No, but I remember Nintendo has videos of the combat for the first Xenoblade and combat works the same here. Those videos helped me more than anything when I started, I'll have to find the links and reply to this.

Re: Masahiro Sakurai Wanted Geno to be a Playable Smash Bros. Fighter
He's always been my dream choice, I'm crossing my fingers that he'll have another major role before a potential Smash 5.

Re: Site News: Welcome To The Brand New Nintendo Life!
Woah
Re: Editorial: Considering the Recipe For Successful Nintendo Remasters and Re-Releases
@getyourak With the amiibo $50-55 would be reasonable, I'd so go for it at that price.

That was a nice read, I like stories like this.
Re: Nintendo Confirms Bayonetta, Corrin & Final Mii Costume DLC in Super Smash Bros. for 3rd February
I can't stand that annoying "AAAAAAH" voice that Bayonetta makes when she's knocked back, I think it's worse than Fox's "NEEEYOW"
Re: Mario & Luigi: Paper Jam Developers Discuss the Game's Development
@NintyMan Yeah, I actually think both of their story ideas sound amazing! For a Mario RPG I think we should've gotten a better story.
Re: Mario & Luigi: Paper Jam Developers Discuss the Game's Development
Before reading this I'll predict: Miyamoto forced a bland story again to "be safe"
Re: Fire Emblem Fates Removes 'Petting' Feature in Western Localisation
This makes me see it a little less as Weeaboo Emblem, I wish we could go back to the older styles while maintaining some new mechanics

Re: Bigley's Revenge Has Been Removed From the eShop
Curses! I wanted to buy it just for the heck of it before they took it down. I know I regretted buying Meme Run but I still wanted to do this.

Re: Feature: How Mario Kart Brought Two Soul Mates Together
@Jaunty oh, in that case I really enjoyed reading this the first time and it's a cute story. I hope we could see more like this.
Re: Feature: How Mario Kart Brought Two Soul Mates Together
Wasn't this already covered about a couple months ago?

Re: Talking Point: Super Smash Bros. for Wii U and 3DS Set a Standard That'll Be Tough to Follow
@TheAceofMystery They should add more Pikmin
Re: Talking Point: Super Smash Bros. for Wii U and 3DS Set a Standard That'll Be Tough to Follow
@EngieBengie I agree with all of that plus get rid of Lucina and put in Lyn with a unique moveset, throw in Banjo and Isaac, good.

@Uzuki Kid Icarus NES, Of Myth's and Monsters, Uprising, what other game was there?
Re: Corrin Chooses to Fight in Super Smash Bros. for Wii U and 3DS

@Uzuki But a new Kid Icarus would be the 4th in the series.
Re: Rumour: Data Miners Leak Some of the Information From Tomorrow's Nintendo Direct
I want Geno a lot but so does my ex, that makes me very happy because she hates Mii costumes whereas I'm okay with them.

If we get a Minecraft rep before Banjo and Kazooie I promise to scream at the top of my lungs while I watch this right after school in the library with my friends. Also, go Banjo!
Re: Mario & Luigi: Paper Jam Makes Underwhelming Debut in Japan, Yet Wii U Hardware Shows Impressive Growth

Re: You Can't Alter The Chest Size Of Female Characters In The Western Version Of Xenoblade Chronicles X
