It's shaping up to be an awesome game.
The only downside is that the music is composed by Sawano. I can't see him making good music. But it seems the world will make up for it.

I voted for smash, but I feel like it's cheating.
Tropical Freeze (windmill hills) and Xenoblade (gaur plains) soundtracks are amazing.
I even love the 3D World and mk8 soundtracks as incidental music, but I wouldn't listen to them.

FE:RD is the only game I have that I would buy again. I can't play it on my wii u because it doesn't use the pro controller/game cube controller. But if they allow me to play it on the game pad, I would cry tears of joy.

I am excited for this game. I would much rather play it on the new 3ds, but I don't want to buy the XL, thanks NoA!

This is sad. Though the rewards are awful at times. The program was good.

Hope whatever loyalty program they start will have the Nintendo network account, rather than a dedicated account, and to have better rewards.

I knew we're due for a direct.
I'm keeping expectations low.

I'm excited to see what their next game is. I hope we get to see it this year.
As for this game, it's a loss, but that's fine with me. Not all prototype games make it to the market.

I've never played MM, so I don't really know what this whole thing means.
But to me whatever changes they do to make the game better are welcome.

Games being difficult and tedious are two different things to me. So if they take away anything tedious (which is common to Zelda games) without dumbing down the game, I'm fine.

OoT3D and WWHD had very good changes from the originals.

My company has a hard time selling stuff in Brazil because of the tariffs. So I'm not surprised by this, but it is sad.

That's great. But they need to make sure they have lots of titles that do well, not just a few that do very well. I hope the wii u does well this year.

Yesss!!

Yesss!!

I want F-Zero so much. But if Miyamoto waters it down, then no thanks. I don't want any gimmicks or controller shenanigans. The GC controller worked perfectly for GX, there's no reason to change that.
F-Zero must be precise and fast.

Cool, I was hoping they'd do this. I just cancelled my CR subscription because this season was weak.

This was a cool program. I have about 60 bucks on my account and a few games I want to buy from the eshop. I'm debating just spending all that money and the games I know I'll eventually get to use the promotion one last time, or just let it go.
My backlog is huge though.

I'm excited for the game, but the music in the trailers is so obnoxious.

I would only consider it if their flagship phones competes with other android flagship phones.

The problem with them making their own phone is that it can't be a new operating system, and if they went android, then they will lose all third party mobile support. Because the developed games would be developed for that system, and the publishers will not block the enormous android install base. I don't want touch screen controlled professor Layton, bravely default, and so on.

If this is real, then IS is working on codename stream, FE X SMT, and this. That seems unlikely to me.
That's assuming this is by IS.

How about Wii u themes?

I will buy it right away, but it'll have to wait for me to finish advance wars.

I was thinking about this game the other day. I'm excited to see what they have in store.

@RedDevilAde
Apparently people throw money at anyone with an idea at Kickstarter, or so some may think.

Those who want to only play smash with the GameCube controller should've preordered it. Though, to be fair, Nintendo should've anticipated this.

I'm getting this day one. Sadly though, it'll have to wait while I plow through my backlog.
Hopefully they announce 3dworld dlc at some point soon.

That fun.
But steel is just as heavy as iron, haha.

This explains why Europe gets the game after us. If they can't make them at a sufficient rate for one region, then the situation would be worse for multiple regions.

That's pretty nice.
I'd like to see what's the cost.

Aww, Europe has to wait.
I saw Marth at the midnight release, the figure looks really weird.
Some amiibo look good, others not so good.

How about an F Zero game? Ha, Nintendo!

@wayward
I'm good. I haven't much interest in the game. But if I chose you get it, I'd get it a few weeks later since Ubisoft games drop in price quickly.

I'm picking up smash at midnight. But I may use this to get tropical freeze and some other game. I just don't know which game I would pick.

It still surprises me that Nintendo doesn't remedy the game droughts with VC games.

Otherwise, I love mine.

I want to make fun of you, Europeans, for not getting smash this week. But I can't get over the fact that you have the great MM limited edition and don't.

I'm getting ike and shulk, though I will not use them.

Just ordered them. I had too many coins because the rewards have been horrible lately. I also have two of the LBW posters on my walls at home.

I just want f zero gx hd. Damn it, Nintendo. It's alright, we'll get ten more Kirby and Mario games before we get that.

They look good, I want them now!

I preordered it and picked it up day one at 6pm. There didn't seem to be a problem at the store I go to, which is game stop.

This Direct was awesome. I was thinking about the article you guys ran earlier today and then the tournament announcement came up.

Also, they have an Elincia trophy, UGH!!!!!

I just want Ike Amiibo.

@Damo thanks a lot.

@Platoonleaderg I was planning in doing that, but I've been waiting for 2 and don't want to hold it till I play 1. Besides, I tend to not like to play two similar games in a very small window. So if I play 1, I'll have to wait a while before I want to play 2.
I'm not complaining though.

Nintendo life,

How much of the game will we get if we choose to play 2 before 1? Is it too dependent on the first one?
Thanks.

I'm not going to use them for smash. They'll just sit at my desk.

Nintendo did a smart move by making the monster Hunter deal with Capcom.

It's a step in the right direction.

@ThomasBW84
I was messing, I knew what you meant. But Nintendo should have seen that coming. This is probably not the last time it'll happen.

The article title is confusing. Are you talking about the new themes or the themes for the new 3ds?
This is Nintendo marketing at its best.

@Kaze_Memaryu don't forget that Nintendo also wants to protect itself. Some patents well assume these things are safe for their kids when they buy them. And if lots of kids watch porn on the 3ds it'll be an annoyance to deal with the press and the bad image. This way they can say the parent was at fault, and they'll be right.

Nintendolife,
When you do the Wednesday sales charts in Japan, could you add a small note with the total 3ds sales?
Now they have four models, and if the 2ds joins them, that'll be one big chart.
Thanks.

I didn't know they planned on releasing a demo. I already preordered it. But if it comes to NA, I'll give it a try.
