I know I might be in the unpopular opinion range, but this lineup is pretty good.
Baseball Simulator is seriously underrated as a franchise. Joe & Mac and Magical Drop II are dang good. And you can't be mad at Genealogy of the Holy War showing up, maybe it's even foreshadowing something...
@ikki5 I've been playing it every day (except for Kirby promotions) since and I've had fun with it. It's not hard to avoid spending money and get all of the badges that you want. Now the themes are a whole different matter entirely.
@faint Obviously, you've got the right idea about what the SJ difference is. @Dave24 is off to a degree with his points, being one of the types to throw around and degrade the term SJW.
The thing about maternity leave is more of a business issue than it is a gender issue because a lot of injuries (unfairly) don't count, and worse, businesses outright refuse medical leave.
I don't think she fully understands what localization is. But then again, this company that she worked with finds outdated memes to be acceptable for a game that's supposed to sell and be "immersive."
Oh man, this show is the reason I watch anime today. My mom would watch Pokemon all the time (indirectly causing me to watch Sailor Moon) and the old episodes are still as good as they used to be.
The thing that kills this argument is that barely anyone under the age of 23 uses Facebook these days. Does he even understand the social media market? Twitter, Instagram, Vine, Snapchat, the list goes on. FB isn't dominant amongst the youth as it once was, and as a result, people look for the next social media service.
No need to mention that FB isn't even Miitomo's competition.
I very much prefer physical copies because I do not trust companies to be fair in an all digital environment. It also helps to be able to sell back a less-than-satisfactory game.

Re: Video: See How Many Faces You Can Name In This 101-Character Super Mario Kart Race
@Wes880 I was waiting for someone to notice it. Yeah boi.
Re: Video: See How Many Faces You Can Name In This 101-Character Super Mario Kart Race
CJ's appearance was the best one. Bar none.
Re: Let's Clarify Exactly How the Fire Emblem Fates 'Skinship' Mode Works in North America
This sounds nice.

Re: Bravely Second "Tomahawk" Costume Change Confirmed For The West
This change is kinda racist, to be honest. It's not like the costume was a Washington Redskins thing.
Re: Fire Emblem Fates Removes 'Petting' Feature in Western Localisation
If Camilla is next, then I am done.
Re: Mighty No. 9 Has Been Delayed Once Again as Keiji Inafune Offers Sincere Apologies
I can't say that I didn't see this coming.
Re: Did You Know Gaming Explores Mario & Religion
@Solid_Stannis Which Eagles to be exact?
Re: ESPN Plans On Broadcasting Super Smash Bros. Events
@Yorumi G4 unfortunately shut down like 2 years ago on a whimper.
Re: 'Brain Training' Games Aren't All They're Cracked Up to be
So does it actually work or is it a placebo effect?
Re: Activision Blizzard Has Acquired Major League Gaming
MLG has been losing money for years. Activision will do nothing but make it an advertising platform.
Re: Xenoblade Chronicles X Voice Actress Is In Favour Of Lin's Western Costume Change
@faint It's very easy to blame a lot people for things, unfortunately.

Re: Weirdness: Gamer Keeps Super Famicom On For 20 Years To Preserve Umihara Kawase Save Data
This is months old. And it's already been debunked.

Re: First Edition Pokémon Trading Cards Are Getting A Reprint For The 20th Birthday Of The Franchise
Not only is this news at least 3 months old, it's also completely unconfirmed.
Don't trust Polygon, everyone. They'll steer you wrong.
Re: Minecraft Has Become the Ninth Best-Selling Game on the Japanese eShop
This is all I got for this.
Re: Pokémon Go Grabs Sixth Place in Google's Top US Video Game Searches for 2015
Ain't surprised one bit by Agar.io. Great online game with a scientific concept.
Re: Nintendo NX Doesn't Need To Compete With PlayStation 4 And Xbox One To Be A Success, Claims Analyst
This makes a lot of sense.
Re: Napster is Coming to the European Wii U eShop on 17th December
Napster?
Re: Final Mii Fighter Costumes and Hats Detailed for Super Smash Bros.
You can now make 100% original character Blails, but no 100% original character Blonic.
Re: Bayonetta Confirmed as New Challenger in Super Smash Bros.
Bayo 4 Lyfe.
Re: Mercedes Arrives in Super Mario Maker With a Course and Mystery Mushroom Outfit
Go!! GLA. Loved that car in MK8.
Re: Minecraft on Wii U Won't Feature Inventory Management on the GamePad Screen
Why even make this then?
Re: Linkle to be Considered for Future Legend of Zelda Titles
Linkle deserves her own spin-off, not a chance to be hamfisted into a main line game.
Re: Art: Here's Another Western Take On The Legend Of Zelda's Link
Link looks better as a bishi.
Re: Weirdness: A Dragon Punch Would Take Your Head Clean Off, Says Science
Well duh. It doesn't take rocket science to figure that out.
Re: Nintendo Download: 3rd December (North America)
Yoooooo. I've been meaning to get Trauma Team for years now.
Re: Art: Halo Character Artist Gives Legend Of Zelda's Link A Realistic Makeover
One word. Ugly.
Re: Vblank Entertainment Announces Shakedown Hawaii and Targets 3DS Release
I'm totally hype for this.
Re: Poll: Nintendo's Free-to-Play Experiments - Are You Still Playing?
I believe that Nintendo did it right with Rusty's Real Deal Baseball and Nintendo Badge Arcade.
Though, the Pokémon titles were a little shallow on their end. A little too obvious on the cash grab part.
Re: Donkey Kong Champ Billy Mitchell Loses Legal Battle Against Regular Show Parody
@Aneira You are aware that King of Kong is full of scripted drama and conflict, right?
Re: EA CFO Explains Why the Company Doesn't Make Wii U Games Anymore
Ya know. You could've just said this instead of lying and dodging the question for 2 straight years.
Re: Video: Watch Kids React To The Original Pokémon Anime Television Series
Oh man, this show is the reason I watch anime today.
My mom would watch Pokemon all the time (indirectly causing me to watch Sailor Moon) and the old episodes are still as good as they used to be.
Re: Hands On: Getting Pinned Down By Nintendo Badge Arcade
I'm addicted to it and I really like the bunny. I just want the badges.
Re: Keiji Inafune is Interested in Implementing amiibo in His Games
Can you actually release the game first?
Re: Valhalla Game Studios is Being Sued Over a Trademark Dispute
I don't think they thought hard enough about this kind of situation when making the logo.
Re: More North American Women Own A Games Console Than Men
This was actually proven false. Many other factors were not counted in this poll.

Re: Zelda Fans Vent Anger At Nintendo of America Over Doge Memes In Tri Force Heroes
Just let the memes die already.
It's beyond beating a dead horse at this point.
Re: Poll: The Tricky Issue of Retail Games as Download-Only Releases
I very much prefer physical copies because I do not trust companies to be fair in an all digital environment. It also helps to be able to sell back a less-than-satisfactory game.
Re: Super Mario Maker Grabs Sixth Place in NPD US Results and Boosts Wii U System Sales By Over 100%
That's rather surprising.
Re: Nielsen Game Rank Lists the Most Anticipated Games of the Holiday Season
How is Fallout 4 below Black Ops 2? same with Battlefront being at the bottom of the top 5. This list is very questionable.
Re: Nintendo Drops Out of Interbrand 'Best Global Brands' Top 100
If either Occulus Rift or Instagram is in, then you'll know how this list is made.
Not really surprising with all the new brands that have popped up and made near instant millions in the past two, that's right, 2-3 years.
Re: Deep Silver And Comcept Confirm Launch Date For Mighty No. 9
Does anybody even care anymore? This is just a disappointment.
Re: Disney Infinity 3.0's Toy Box Mode Offers Blatant Splatoon Clone
Even if this is was illegal, there would be nothing that Nintendo could do about it. This is the Mouse we're talking about.
Overall, parody or not, it's crappy.
Re: Apple Just Announced Its Own Wii, Almost A Decade After Nintendo
Can Apple be the "behind the times" butt monkey now?
Re: Rumour: Mega Man Is Starring In A Mega Movie Thanks To The Help Of 20th Century Fox
How long until Adam Sandler's boys get involved?
Re: Video: Mario Skate is the Latest Viral Video to Celebrate Nintendo Culture
Noice. And he was rocking that electric board.
