Should of had both. I really enjoyed the Wii mote controls, swinging the sword felt great.

Looks awesome.

I think they're a strong development outfit, sad to hear the news.

I think this looks like a really cool fun little game. I'm excited to pick this up with Star Fox Zero.

@ejamer What do you mean by mushy controls? Also i'm very confident that the physics were consistent, i literally played through the game n new game + (kept all my upgrades) without dying. I was always able to do exactly what i wanted when i wanted.

Level design is subjective but i loved it, tons of things really stick out for me. I'm curious what areas did you find lackluster?

This will surely be excellent. Teslagrad has got to be one of the best games i've ever played, mechanics, level design, bosses, story and art were all top notch. From Metroid to Zelda in style, a natural and exciting progression.

No brainer.

Getting games like this and say FF 7 remastered will really help Nintendo appeal to the core gamer crowd. Also getting EA on board with sports and guns should help a ton. Ubisoft and Nintendo do have a good relationship despite Ubisoft fickle nature. It seems like Nintendo could realistically be well supported by Capcom, Square-Enix, Ubisoft, EA, Namco, Sega, Tecmo-Koei, Platinum, and Warner. Hopefully they can get Bethesda and Rockstar on board too and have nearly every major publisher/developer on board.

I generally think people heavily overreact to localization as being censorship, like seriously who cares about petting or more revealing outfits, but this is the kind of change that really is bogus if true. Not a Bravely Default fan but i hope for the sake of those who are that this ends up being unsubstantiated.

Looks like a fun game, i really enjoyed the Rocket Barrel levels and David Wise always kills it with the soundtrack. I'm sure i'll be picking this up

The guy who broke "Pokemon Rainbow" said it was a code name and not an actual title name.

Awesome video, i'm still a bit confused by the content (it's a lot to FULLY understand) but i feel like i learnt a lot about computers, especially some stuff i always wanted to understand.

Looks amazing, and considering how addicted i was to Woah Dave! i'm expecting to really enjoy it. I love these recreations of retro classics with far more refined and technical gameplay elements added in. From Mario Bros. to Space Invaders/Galaga, i hope we get something else in this vein. Something Bubble Bobble-ish maybe, or perhaps that's too close to Woah Dave, or even something Donkey Kong inspired would get me extra hyped. I'm not a big Pac Man guy but with the way they've been knocking it out of the park they could probably make something awesome out of that too. Asteroids, Bomb Jack, and Dig Dug might be interesting too.

@-DG @Denngar Yeah i've wondered if they could be a tandem character before too. I'd be happy either way.

I don't care about the pokemon but i'd like to see pretty much all the same additions. Dixie was my vote in the Smash Ballot and i'd like to really see Impa to add some Zelda representations. The Baby tandem is a good idea i never had, i just worry that it'll be too many Mario's especially if Paper Mario does get added as he should. Bomberman is the 3rd party character that probably makes the most sense but since Konami owns him now it might be a tough go, although Snake and a Castelvania rep may also make sense from them. I also would like to see Adam Malkovich to add in another Metroid rep., and he could even be a clone/replacement for Snake.

Geno and Mallow please. Mallow is hysterical. Axem Rangers as an assist trophy would be awesome too

ALTTP
Minish Cap
A Link Between Worlds

The last vote was difficult i could have voted for any of Ocarina, Wind Waker, Twilight Princess or Skyward Sword. After that the Oracle Games and Link's Awakening deserve some love. The only game in the series i don't like/haven't beat is Spirit Tracks, i hated the train, and even then i'm sure it's not a bad game. Tons of great games in here.

@MrPuzzlez If Nintendo doesn't actively seek to protect their rights to their IP's then my understanding is they can actually lose them. Idk how true that is but i've heard it a few times before from reasonable folks. Perhaps somebody more knowledgeable could make an informed comment on the matter, but as of now it's something for you to consider.

@Tempestryke

Cool, thanks for the breakdown. I've actually got the Zero collection it's just been on the backlog forever. But considering i'm almost done the Metroid Prime series after having those on the backlog forever i'm sure i'll get to it. lol. The ZX games actually look really good graphically and i didn't even know they were a thing until a year or two ago, i thought they were just more of that battle network nonsense (which may be good games, they just aren't what i'm looking for in a Mega Man game).

@Tempestryke

I'm nearly certain i did the Subrosian Dance using an emulated version the last time i played the game but i remember it pissing me off big time. lol

Mega Man and Bass can screw itself. I love hard games like Super Ghouls and Ghosts and i've beaten every single 2D Mega Man other than that one with exception to the Zero series and DS games but i just couldn't do that game. I've tried a few times and just quit out of frustration. I don't know why it has to be so hard but it was to the point that it just wasn't fun for me, it felt routinely unfair. I'd love to play the Zero series, i started once and just couldn't get into it though. The DS ones look decent too but i'm just not sure they'll have the same magic. One day...

I really missed the Subspace Emissary/Adventure mode in this iteration. I've been playing since the N64 version and i found having a single player adventure in the Wii version kept the game fresher for me than anything else. I really hope they add one in for the rumoured NX version of Smash.

This is my favourite one but since i already have it on 3DS i won't be picking it up. It's a bit of a shame since i prefer most games on the home console over the 3DS but i don't like wasting money.

I'm glad they removed it, it's weird and adds nothing to the gameplay. I'm surprised anyone wants to do it, seems needlessly time consuming for something weird. Just get that Senran Kagura Bust game if you're into this stuff, i think you can rub them in that game.

Looks awesome. You promised a quality platformer for the system years ago and managed to deliver, it's awesome to see. For anyone wondering about how the PC version has been received i looked it up on Steam and it seems to be highly recommended.

@DESS-M-8 That's not my point. Like i said why can't they do both. ME as my own person wants to see Nintendo make certain games, i don't vote or buy things in order to appeal to a demographic other than myself. Individualism and Capitalism doesn't work like that. If Nintendo wants to/should make games to appeal to another demographic that's their own perogative, but it certainly isn't indicative of mine. Asking people to vote or voice an opinion for something other than what they want is foolhardy. I think we largely agree on the matter but at a surface level i couldn't disagree more with the idea that i as an individual ought to champion the development of something they don't care for.

It's like being a rock fan and liking say Nickelback simply for the reason of wanting a Rock band to be a bigger act than say any Pop music singer, like a Taylor Swift. I don't have to like either and i won't. I don't care if it means Rock music will be less popular, i can only value my own perspective and tastes. That's the inherent value i have to offer the world, the thing that makes me me. No point trying to cater to popular perception unless you want to be a poser and fail, there's certain fanboys Nintendo will never win over unless they bastardize themselves and it has nothing/very little to do woth the content they produce.

@Dess-M-8 I don't care about what the "market" wants, i care about what i want. I'm a Nintendo fan because they do something different, because they value art and creativity. Nintendo is still largely profitable, they aren't going anywhere. Also why can't they do both? I want Nintendo games the day they stop making those is the day Nintendo is no longer #1 in my books.

@Dezzy The reason people are voting more for Metroid has nothing to do with sales. I'll buy Mario every time but Metroid is wanted more due to the fact a mainline game hasn't been released since like 2010. I voted for both but Metroid was #1 on my list, if i had to choose one it would have been Metroid but it doesn't mean i wouldn't buy Mario.

Metroid, Donkey Kong, Mario 3D or 2D.

@Mrclaycoat Came here to post just that. If you don't have it you should.

@Gridatttack I grew up with both and have beaten both and i think hands down the All Stars port is better. It looks much better while still retaining the same art style, i also always hated the edge of the screen doing that weird flashing/clipping thing in the NES. What's wrong with the atmosphere? It's got better backgrounds and that's nearly it, i don't think i've ever heard this complaint before tbh.

Either way i think we can all/should agree that SM3 is a perfect game and arguably the GOAT in gaming, amazing that it came out on the NES. Only A Link to the Past is in the running for me.

i do laugh at the example of "Para Beetle Challenge" being trollish or overly difficult considering i beat it in my first try. These levels are generally excellent and are largely designed in a way that they really can't be recreated in Mario Maker. Never mind the difference in physics. I think it's a great buy if you're into Mario, really encourages Nintendo to go the extra mile with releases like this.

A word or warning to the wise, be sure not to shut the game off in middle of gameplay. I lost all of my save progress on the e-reader levels by shutting off the system in middle of a level (who would have guessed?) as opposed to quitting the level and backing out to the title screen. It was annoying to say the least.

My wife would love this game, she really enjoyed the DS ones and isn't much of a gamer but titles like this, and Animal Crossing HHD, are the exact thing she needs to really get into the medium. It's very foolish that this isn't available in NA. Selling it for cheap and advertising it to women would be a great way for Nintendo to expand it's fanbase.

Looks amazing, really looking forward to a hard but fair game. Hopefully it's in line with the difficulty of something like Super Ghost's n Goblins and not it's NES predecessor.

@allav866 Those two should be good as well. Is A Hat In Time confirmed for a Wii U release. I know it was previously up in the air. That games been in development for a looooooong time it feels.

Looks very well made, certainly takes a lot of inspiration from Mario 64. I'm sure i'll be picking this up. I remember when the KS launched and it seems to have come out well in the end.

Edit: Also just looked into it and the reviews on Steam are very good. Nice.

Malo is hysterical. Hero of prices. haha.

Not surprised, i've got the first two on 3DS so i had no reason to pick this up.

@VanillaLake

A modded Wii is capable of playing Super Scope titles using the Wii Remote.

What a disappointment this was back in the day. Besides the lack of games, and the questionable quality of them (not to say all sucked, Yoshi's Safari was good) the darn thing was one of the most battery intensive things i've ever seen. Batteries when i was a kid weren't cheap and this thing ate them like it was going out of style. It was more of a cool toy than a video game peripheral in my household, it was a cool toy though.

Looks like a well made game and i was interested but i pretty much always want some kind of single player option to pick a game up.

We can't even get good discounts in NA let alone decent games. Wow.

Headline seemed kinda misleading. Basically Nintendo did nothing wrong, it's common sense that pushing yourself mentally keeps you sharper. Luminosity is certainly in the wrong here, so why create a headline the sheds doubt on Nintendo's practices in selling the game?

For example i have a great aunt that broke her hip and had to be put on bed rest in a hospital on painkillers for a couple weeks, despite no apparent mental issues she never regained her full cognitive abilities after healing her hip. My Great Grandmother lamented her sisters demise by insisting this kind of thing was a common occurrence amongst the elderly in her assisted living community. My wife's Grandmothers Alzheimer's considerably worsened after her eyesight was impaired to the degree that reading became impossible. Her other grandmother became depressed after being diagnosed with Dementia and her illness rapidly worsened more so that expected after she failed to continue doing much of anything. In fact in both cases doctors suggested to the two ladies that they be sure to challenge themselves mentally to help stave off the progression of the diseases.

Mental exercise keeps you sharp, it's likely near impossible to prove for a variety of reasons, but common sense makes it a rather obvious and accepted train of thought to the typical person.

Fusion was a great game but for me it falls well behind Zero Mission and Super Metroid. Zero Mission is maybe too short and easy at times but i think it's definitely the best Metroid game. It's not the intense undertaking of Super Metroid but it isn't linear, Fusion's biggest flaw, making it the perfect mix. I don't recall Fusion or the bosses being challenging tbh, especially not the SA-X or any of the final bosses. The only time the SA-X was difficult was iirc the time he power bombed the room, that jerk was a bit of a pain to get away from that time. lol.

It seems to me this game is on the wrong platform. Who wants to play underpowered horror games on the 3DS. It can't compete with Resident Evil and even then that's not a game many indie gamers are interested in. I know Xeodrifter apparently didn't do that great and that's too bad since it was rather enjoyable, but Xeodrifter was also quite expensive for what it was.

@MarkyVigoroth

I don't know if it would have mattered. Back then computers were pretty rare and the games on them were not nearly as good. In fact i seem to recall there was a port of the original Super Mario Bros. for PC (it sucked) and an all new game developed by Hudson Soft called Super Mario Bros. Special (it also sucked), and it didn't seem to hurt the NES version at all. Believe it or not but from the footage shown that game would have been just about as good as they could have done for the time, it's very similar to ID's other 2D platformers of the time which were the cream of the crop. It would have been a niche title for the few people with computers, just like Commander Keen is remembered today. Basically it would have been fairly inconsequential.

That's awesome. i loved those old Dos Games from Id Software. Commander Keen, Crystal Caves, Duke Nukem all gems for their time. The sound effects in the port are straight from those titles. I'd love to play the Dos port just for the heck of it.

Ignorant people... Good on you luigio17 for bringing it up, i certainly wouldn't lose sleep over it if i were you and it doesn't seem like you are, but he should be shamed for being a jerk. He should really have some pride and not take credit for other peoples work. If he had titled it after say you it wouldn't be so bad, but he's simply taking all the credit and i think that's shameful. All the people saying "who cares" i think are doing it because they're jealous. I made a level i put a ton of time into and i'd be annoyed if someone copied it and took the credit, my heart and soul went into it even if it is just a minor piece of it. These levels are minor works of art, they're creations that are intrinsically a representation of your individualism and it's totally immoral to pass something like that off as your own. If there is a silver lining at least you know your level was a good one as imitation can be regarded as a form of flattery.

I really enjoyed Tri Force heroes, even single player, i only found one dungeon thus far i couldn't beat without skipping in single player. How much fun you have is certainly dependant on teammates, some people are frustrating, but it's rarely an issue and when you get a good team sometimes you can go 4-5 turns together before someone quits. I liked it a lot more than 4 swords.

It came out 4 years ago and the reviewer is talking about how it's "aged", weird. It's still relatively new.

Surprised this got a 5 since i've heard quite a few claim it was as good or better than Rainbow Curse and i would have gave that game a 9. 5 really seems kinda extreme but i can't say i know for sure.

Edit: Wow just looked back at the original review and i don't understand how it can go from a 8 to a 5. Perhaps the fellow reviewing it just isn't into this style of game...

@Shugo Probably because the Sony version was largely developed prior to Microsoft purchasing Minecraft. They'll port it to other systems but the PC and Xbox versions will be the best going forward if i had to guess.
