@60frames-please Thanks for such a thorough answer. It's much appreciated

Does each player need their own joy-con to play? Can you use each joy-con, aim then pass then fire when all the players are set up? I'd love to get this, but I only have two joy-cons and a pro controller

Online seems to have slowed down some recently. LOVE this game

Just bought Rayman Legends. Thanks for the notification NL!

@KiwiPanda I appreciate the honest, actually. My wife is the most casual of gamers so we love Wii Party U and Nintendo Land. I was hoping MP10 wasn't really terrible, just unoriginal

Already own many of the best off this list, but I never played a Pikmin title. Can't say no to this price. I'd get Mario Party 10 for $20. Maybe next time?

I see lots of people stating that because Red is popular there are more poor players, but it doesn't explain why the opposite could also take place - Red is popular and therefore more better players jump on board. This is why I think it is more about reactionary voters could make for reactionary players - the kind that get destroyed by a good player.

@MitchVogel I thought about this and the best I could come up with is (and is probably wrong): it seems one team will immediately become more popular as soon as Splatfest is announced. Some people just react to what they like more. Does this style of voting get translated into the way people play the game on a macro level? Eg, a person impulsively votes for Red and is more likely to rush headlong into a 2 on 1 fight or not consider chokepoints, etc costing their team matches. Obviously not all Red voters are these kinds of players, but on a macro level? Idk... that's my .02

I had Pokemon Blue in my original Gameboy so of course I had to represent it in Splatfest. I was a wrecking ball yesterday. +22 rating

I'm with others that this is the weakest entry of the series. The rubberband AI nearly ruined it. That said, it's still a good game and I played this game to death when it came out.

Never played Twilight Princess... the shame

A total classic. Great music and a great ending as well.

So many weird decisions....

Definitely a recommended title.

Didn't enjoy this game as a kid. This game has nothing on Double Dragon.

@cmlobue I'm with you. I would snap up a Dragon Quest version right away

Love the NES, but these mods are just a bit too rich for my blood.

How good is PSX and N64 emulation on these devices?

Super Mario 3D World blew me away with its variety. I was expecting a good game and got fantastic.

I wasn't a fan of space shooters growing up, but I liked playing Stinger. It's definitely a challenge. I was an adult before I managed to beat it.

The reluctance to cut prices is the surest indicator the NX will be revealed and pushed to market very soon. Consumers who buy a new console want it to be supported for some time. You can imagine the unhappy feelings of a parent or gamer who scoops up a cheaper Wii U only to hear that the system will be discontinued and Nintendo now wants you to buy a whole new system next Christmas.

Great share.

Awesome

Awesome share

Great speed run

There have been racers that I have bested me in several racers and they played so well that I actively searched for them on MK8. That feeling of a person that is just a little bit better than you at the game really drives you race even better.

Always loved the black box art. It was an interesting move on Nintendo's part to show the pixelated graphics instead of the over-the-top (and also great) painted art on Atari carts.

Guy gets bonus points for using the Powerpad as his backdrop

The in game music jams super hard, too

This is a great game and I played it like crazy on my 3DS

When I played Gunstar Heroes for the first time, I wondered how was it possible that everybody didn't try to make games as amazing as this. Dynamite Heddy next!

SNES SMK > MK64

A masterpiece

I remember thinking if I was ever going to speed run a game, it would be this because nobody could possibly be amazing at it. Amazing speed run.

Totally surprised by the above comments. The 3DS has never struck me as underpowered. If the NX is going to be partially handheld, then I understand replacing it. Otherwise, I feel as if the system still has 3 years in it.

Why why why has Nintendo refused to make Pokemon Snap 2 for Wii U? The gamepad is perfect for this game

@Not_Soos Would hope it's an option. I really enjoy using it.

I love my Wii U, but I got to say I think this commercial drubbing is forcing Nintendo to reconsider some of its less productive approaches as a game maker. DLC has been a thing for a while now and now Nintendo is on board and doing a great job of it. Rumors abound it is going to restructure its digital purchases to make them tied to an account rather than a system and hopefully the NX is a system attractive for 3rd party developers.

Always preferred Nintendo systems, but I LOVED playing SoR2 on my friend's Genesis

I agree with Yokoi in that games don't need photorealistic graphics to be fun. In fact, graphics are nice, but hardly essential. One thing I love with retro gaming is how much could be done with less.

Why not just release it if it's so close to completion? Musicians regularly release free songs and demos to fans with the understanding that they are not getting perfect sound, imperfect tracks, etc. Sometimes this work turns out to be really great like Machina II from the Smashing Pumpkins that was actually far superior to the product the band asked you to pay for...

A great loss to anyone that has ever picked up a Nintendo controller and lost themselves in the magic.

Dragon Quest has been my favorite RPG franchise since the beginning. Can't wait to snap these up!

I'll get it if it hits $5. Super happy for the guy that really touched off a lot of NES era nostalgia nearly 10 years ago.

Amazing, amazing game. Dynamite Heady next!

Incredibly fun game. I wish the 2nd game could make it out of Japan

Nintendo would be risking its committed base the way Sega did if it starts pushing the NX too soon.

Give free pineapples to all the super cute haters. There is a very good reason why this company has such a dedicated fanbase and that's because gameplay matters. Of which, Nintendo is a masterful creator.

Watch the swearing, please - Inkling

^Oops! Definitely was not paying attention to what board I was on.

Pretty safe to say in 2015 that this was a good idea. A Link Between Worlds was fantastic!

The 2nd video is narrated in a way that makes it very clear that there is a lot of assumed knowledge of Mario 64 glitches. God bless the internet.
