I'm shocked you guys didn't mention Metroid II, Donkey Kong Land or Final Fantasy Legend II. Both are great games and I liked FFLII more than Pokemon. Also, the only great part of SML2 was Wario's Castle. I'll take Wario Land: SML3 over 6 Golden Coins any day.
@6ch6ris6 Most watch Let's Plays as they can contain entertaining commentary. I watch for entertaining commentators and to see games I've never seen before that look interesting. The keyword is can since I find LPers like Game Grumps and any angry game channel very annoying.
I never liked the Metroidvanias that much and have no interest in playing these God of Warvanias. Give me another 2D classic Castlevania game Konami! To me, those were the best.
About time I can update my Balloon Fight 3DS version! @Wiidsguy: Wait for 2 and 3. Both are superior to the original. The original isn't terrible, but not great either.
So sad and true. Most games nowadays are too easy and hold your hand throughout the entire game. It's so annoying! I rarely replay new games because of those two problems. Thank God I was born in the 80's.

Re: Nintendo Direct Focusing On Wii U And 3DS Games Coming Spring 2014 To Air Tomorrow
I hope they announce cross-buy for 3DS and WiiU VC titles. I will not pay extra for the same game on my 3DS.
Re: Nintendo Download: 21st November (North America)
Seriously? No Mario or Zelda games on the Wii U VC today? Way to keep dropping the ball Nintendo.
Re: Miyamoto: Nintendo Has Unfinished Business With Super Mario Galaxy Series
Let it go Miyamoto! SMG2 felt like an expansion pack to the original. Nothing more. Do something new!

Of course it is. The new Mario game comes out this month.

None of them. Now if we got Streets of Rage 2 instead of the original, I would of bought that.
Re: Nintendo Confirms The Legend of Zelda: A Link Between Worlds 3DS XL Bundle for North America
If they didn't go the digital route with the game and I didn't have a red 3DS XL already, I totally would of bought it.
Re: Nintendo Provides Reassurances on Wii Availability This Holiday Season
Nintendo, you NEED to start focusing more on the Wii U! I know these will keep selling, but come on!
Re: Eiji Aonuma Explains Why The Legend of Zelda Isn't a Yearly Franchise
Thank God for that. Game in series that come out every year lack quality.
Re: Poll: Did You Pick Up Pokémon X, Pokémon Y or Both?
Neither. Not into Pokemon anymore.

Haven't played Golf in years and am surprised it never hit the Wii VC.

A non linear Zelda? Thank you!!!!!!
Re: New Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles Game Coming To Wii And 3DS
WTF? No love for the Wii U or PS3? Idiots.
Re: Pre-Orders Open for Mega Man Anniversary Statue
Glad I'm not into statues. That's not only expensive, but ugly!
Re: Classic Game Boy Mega Man Titles Coming To 3DS Virtual Console
That's awesome! I've always wanted to play the others. Mega Man V is so expensive now. Can't wait!
Re: Nintendo Reveals The 2013 Club Nintendo Elite Rewards
Just ordered the soundtrack to Majora's Mask! Best freebie ever!
Re: Satoru Iwata - "There Are Some Reasons Behind" Region Locking
This issue never bothered me and could care less.
Re: 3D Versions Of Shinobi III And Streets Of Rage Coming To 3DS eShop
I was hoping it was the second game. Oh well. I might both anyway

Re: Shigeru Miyamoto Wishes Nintendo Had "Done More" With Zelda II
One of the finest entries in the series. I don't care what you say. Please remake it! I would love to see Miyamoto's complete vision of the game.
Re: Konami Picks Up New Contra Trademark
If it's 2D, I'm game.
Re: Feature: The Biggest Wii U Games of 2013 - Summer Edition
What? No Wonderful 101 love?
Re: Nintendo Download: 23rd May (North America)
I am so taking advantage of the limited promo. Never played Dream Course and will only have to pay $3.00 for the other two Kirby games. Sweet!
Re: WWE 2K14 Set To Skip Wii U
Does anybody honestly buy wrestling games on Nintendo systems anymore? I don't...and haven't played one in years anyway.
Re: Konami: We Had To Take Risks With Castlevania To Prevent It Becoming Like Mega Man
I never liked the Metroidvanias that much and have no interest in playing these God of Warvanias. Give me another 2D classic Castlevania game Konami! To me, those were the best.
Re: Capcom Bringing More SNES Goodness To The Wii U Virtual Console
I want the original Breath of Fire.

Re: Feature: Nintendo Life's Staff Favourites - Super NES
Super Metroid is the best SNES game of all time. It doesn't deserve the 8th slot and where are the Final Fantasy games? Both deserve to be on here.
Re: New Legend Of Zelda Title Confirmed For Nintendo 3DS, Due Late 2013
Don't make me use touch controls for this game and I'll buy it.
Re: Wii U System Update Coming Next Week
Love the feature to start on the Wii Channel when you turn the console on. Very cool.
Re: Rumour: Majora's Mask 3D Listed for November Release by Retailer
Bet this will be announced at E3 since it wasn't a part of Nintendo Direct today.
Re: Believe, People - EarthBound Is Coming To The Virtual Console At Last
@DarkKirby Cartridges are the way to go regardless of how much a cart is. Emulators aren't perfect unlike the original hardware.
Re: eShop Leaks Possible Date For Mario and Donkey Kong: Minis on the Move
@DestinyMan If that's true I'll buy it for sure. The Mario vs. DK games have become stale.

Duck Tales doesn't need multiplayer or a tutorial level.
Re: Dad Hacks Donkey Kong So His Daughter Can Play As Pauline
Wow. That's pretty cool.
Re: Review: Mega Man 2 (3DS eShop / NES)
Predictable score. I hope you guys give 3 a 10 too. It's the better game of the two.
Re: Amazon Lists The Legend Of Zelda: Wind Waker HD For $59.99
That's too much for an HD remake. You don't see HD remakes for the PS3 at $60 do you?
Re: Castlevania Is Stalking Onto The 3DS Virtual Console Soon
It took me months to beat this game. Great game.
Re: Review: Balloon Fight (Wii U eShop / NES)
No way this game's a 5. Deserves at least a 7 rating or higher.
