Have you been hanging out with the mayor's eldest daughter? Ye gods!

@NintyFan It's Vodka Drunkenski!
As for me, NSMB 2. I recently noticed Nintendo sent out a spotpass saying we broke 50 billion. I am proud to say 100,000 of those coins are mine.

Glad to see an article about Luigi.

This is exactly what I knew was happening. Nintendo makes one per system. It makes perfect sense. Nintendo already did it with DS and Wii.

I want this. Yellow is my favorite color.

@MrWalkieTalkie I see you resemble an employer.

@Happy_Mask I was originally planning on saying it was Adam West, only to notice you already said that.

Jaleel White? Ryan Drummond? Jason Griffith? Roger Craig Smith? Oh, I know! Charles Martinet!

My wallet bleeds once again.

@19Robb92 So you judge the budget based on how much it costs to make a single cartridge, a box, and the printed off box art?

@dirtyplastic A couple of lines? More like thousands. Maybe more. I'd like to see you code an entire AAA platformer with only a couple lines of code. Heck, I'd like to see you write a single line of code.

I feel like I grew up on these games, but I didn't. Quite strange. I think this should've been Let's Talk About Sonic though. This is SErvice GAmes Life after all! (trollface)

It's a shame I missed that time. I would have loved playing SEGA Master System. (trollface)Seriously though, it sucks being a retro game fan as a kid. Other kids think you're weird, adults think you're not retro enough even though I honestly feel nostalgia for old games that I've never played. Now that I put it that way it does sound weird. (laughs) Also, I am sad to admit my first video game I've ever owned was some GameCube SpongeBob game. First I saw was a friend playing Leaf Green though, so I might be redeemed. (laughs)

I did the Steam alpha build and I'm quite curious to see how it turns out.

NSMB DS marathon. I always hated that one. I think it has poor enemy placement in World 2, so I typically end up rage quitting after getting killed so much by those tall things?
Also, @SMEXIXELDAMAN that is pure genius.

Nothing for me again this week. I typically don't buy downloads on their release date.

I'm not sure if I should get this on my Xbox so I can play with my "friends" who mostly consist of people I know, but I honestly despise, or get on Wii U and play with one Nintendo fanboy I know and some people from NLife, in addition to possibly better graphics and GamePad support.

@BulbasaurusRex Don't get me wrong, I'm a huge "football" fan, and honestly don't like "soccer" that much, but I hate calling handball "football."

@Scollurio That made no sense. And you say that your 6 years old? And you're waiting untill the Wii U to get a Wii?

Next year?

@SteveW Silly American! Why do you call it football, if you use your hands? "Soccer" uses your feet!

Yes! Robotnik! SEGA has referred to him as Robotnik once again! Ura!
(leads SEGA into battle with Nintendo)
(returns defeated)

@Dark_Oddy_Rises I find what you said funny considering what your avatar picture is.
On an unrelated note, does this download come in black?
Seriously though, I doubt it's that long. And if it is, no problem, I was going to be busy on release day anyways.

I was worried that Nintendo Life's progression to SEGA Life might have been halted, but alas, the new editor likes Genesis, so we won't be losing progress.
(Yes I know he's not "new")
(goes to play Genesis)

@Hyperstar96 Maybe because James works at NoE now?

@winter123 Anyone with computer knowledge could put it on a new SD card. You put the old one in the computer's SD card slot, or use an external SD reader if it's not built in, copy it to a folder on your computer, swap the SD cards, copy the contents to the new SD card, and it works just fine.

@PeopleWantingANewExperience Not everybody needs the aesthetics to change. Some people, like me, just want new power ups and levels. I guess I'm one of the people that Reggie (I think it was him that said it) was talking about that just want more Mario without drastic changes.

@Takosuke The original was never released in Europe.

That's it, time for Operation I-cry-when-I-fall.

@KodyWB-98 You are a boss. I wish there were kids like you at my school.

@KaiserGX I got that book too! Except when I got it they already had Fire Red and Leaf Green out.

I wouldn't get your hopes up about Pokemon. SEGA always goes above and beyond. (Looks at Sonic 06)

I'm getting this at some point, since I doubt they'd have another revision, and my 3DS is starting to wear down due to slightly poor choices regarding screen protectors and other things. I honestly doubt there's anything they could REALISTICALLY add. I won't buy any other handheld until the next gen DS.

@hydeks My 3DS is the same in the same spot.

Just saying, a while back Nintendo said they were changing the 3DS account system later this year.

@Nestalgic Really? Is that ALL that it does? It prevents piracy. Piracy=people getting games without Nintendo getting the cash for it=stealing.

@ejamer Beat me to it.

@Eouen He meant, "Wow, this game is very Japanese influenced." I'm pretty sure that's what he meant at least.

@3DSonicPizza It said anthropomorphic STARS actually, as in, Ristar.

@James You're still commenting?
On topic, I've got 37,089 open blocks, on my 8 gig, so I'll be just fine.

@Sosa He hates these boxes! I agree though.

I just woke up after seeing a Dark Knight trilogy marathon last night. They gave out posters and showed all three in a row. It was like watching an eight hour movie. I'd only seen the second before, but I barely remembered any of it. It was awesome.

Cool. Still, why is Danica Patrick in this game? I hope SEGA is getting paid to include her instead of SEGA paying.

I have a message to whoever made that trailer. You're winner! You are of grammar winning more than less good!

He's really gone now... I should have said Auf Wiedersehen.

@Gamesake It's times like this I WISH I lived in Japan

James is really gone. (sniffle)

@CerealKiller062 I'm an 8/16-bit gamer for the most part, and I'm 13. I love 8-bit and especially 16-bit games and modern games similar to them. I rarely play games like Halo or Call of Duty, but I do occasionally. But for the most part, I'm a retro gamer, and I am offended that you would assume that people under 14 don't play retro games. Heck, I get sad when I see little kids playing HD games or worse; smartphone "games".

@Savino Your daughter has won the internet.

YES! THE NEW PERSON HAS PLAYED A SONIC GAME! MAYBE I WON'T NEED JAMES TO REMIND ME THERE ARE OTHER PEOPLE THAT HAVE PLAYED SONIC!
On topic: Demon training? Seems like one of those things that doesn't leave Japan.
