I only ever spend the coins on physical items. As I can't really get the physical items anyway but through club Nintendo, where as I can buy the games any time I want if I really want them.
Cool. Already preordered at GameStop so I'm already set to go for the poster. Plus the GameStop closest to me is participating in the event so that's great. Then again, it looks like basically every GameStop in the Omaha area is participating.
Well, wasn't planning to get this... but after this review I think I've got to. Man Nintendo, you give us two games in four months(one of which I was not in to), and then you give 4 games in just over a months time. Not that I mind the games, but my wallet is gonna be hurting.
Before the Smash and Tomadachi directs I would of totally chosen multi-game presentations every time. But both of those were just so amazing that I really had a hard time choosing so I just said I couldn't decide.
You know, I keep forgetting that this game is coming out with all the hype over Mario Kart and Smash Bros. I'll try the demo next week, but probably won't get it for a while. With Tomadachi Life, Mario Kart, and Kirby all coming out soon.
@unrandomsam As far as that goes that's not at all how Nintendo of America translates games. When they translate one of their own games they translate it in a way that it'll reach a wider audience. While there are people who wouldn't mind playing a game translated like the way you described, there are many people who would find the game more enjoyable if it was translated in a way that was culturally relevant.
@SkywardLink98 I think the article basically means the most basic American accent. If you wanted to tie it to a certain area kind of like like what's spoken in the Midwest.
So to get an idea of how the European stars transfer to our coins, I looked at both the American and European club Nintendo shops to see if any items were the same. The only thing that was the same was the Yoshi screen cloth. In America it's 400 coins and it's 1500 stars in Europe. Some one earlier stated that a full price Wii U game gets you 500 stars. So it would take you the 3 Wii U games to get that. In America, it would take you 6 Wii U games plus 1 3DS game to get the 400 coins. Not to be that guy, but...that doesn't seem super fair.
Both Mario and Luigi and Advanced Wars will be taking some time up. Advanced Wars is quite fun. The only thing that bothers me is that during the fights the COs are all happy and smiley, while those soldiers are out in the field getting themselves killed and watching their fellow soldiers die around them. It's a sad situation.
Got this last week when it came to the eshop. It's great. This review was really fantastic. I personally give it an 8, but still, definitely worth the cash.
I really wish it had been easier to get my copy of the FEA soundtrack. I had to import it using Amazon(not japan). I was able to find a distributor who was selling out at 80 bucks about 6 months ago. But finally they dropped it to 60 and so I jumped on the deal. It's a great CD set, just wish it had been cheaper. What I really want Nintendo to bring to America it's the art book. As it is supposed to have quite a bit of text in it and while I could try to import it I couldn't read any of that.
I just got Ultimate 3 on my Wii U last weekend when it was only 20 bucks and am loving it. The moment I figured out I could have an axe that it's also a sword I was hooked. And it just keeps getting better. I have become some what addicted to upgrading weapons and getting brand new ones. Along with all the different types of armor. And online play is just great.My friend also got itfor the 20 bucks and in the seven days I've had the game we've already gone on quest together 4 of those days.I've played it about 13 hours at this point, and I'm sure I've still got more than 100 more to go before I slow down.
Great. Looks like Runner 2 and A Link To Past this week. With the addition of Monster Hunter yesterday my Wii U's download library is slowly getting larger.
That's a nice looking building. And Intelligent Systems deserves it. They are a great developer (my personal favorite) and I'm looking forward to SMT x FE. And I'm hoping for a purely Fire Emblem title on Wii u ( HD fire emblem would be the best).

Re: Here Are Five New Retail Titles Coming to Wii U
@CaviarMeths True, but if I had to choose one, It'd be quality. Though lots of high quality games is always nice.
Re: Here Are Five New Retail Titles Coming to Wii U
Honestly i'd rather have quality over quantity and theses do not look like they quite deliver the quality.

Re: Download Sales On Nintendo Formats Have Trebled In The Last Two Years
In the past year on my 3DS I've spent about $200, and only about 75$ dollors. So I've spent a decent amount.

Re: Review: Super Mario Advance 3: Yoshi's Island (Wii U eShop / Game Boy Advance)
Great game. Used to play it all the time on my GBA. Never Quite 100% it though. I might just get it on my Wii U. Though I do still have my GBA copy.

Re: Video: Here's a Comparison of Mario Kart's Donut Plains 3 from SNES to Wii U
I was so busy looking at at the beauty of the Wii U version that I barely even glanced at the Super Nintendo version.
Re: Nintendo Shows Off Kirby's Awesome New Abilities on a Snazzy Triple Deluxe Website
@Artwark looked into it. yeah both wheel and spark are in it. Don't know why they wouldn't include the full list on the website. Here's the full list.

Re: Nintendo Shows Off Kirby's Awesome New Abilities on a Snazzy Triple Deluxe Website
What about wheel? I loved the wheel power! It's kinda over powered sometimes but it's so much fun to use.
Re: Feature: A Week of Super Smash Bros. Wii U and 3DS Screens - Issue Thirty Three
So far I'm the only one to vote for the smash run picture. I am quite looking forward to it and I'm hoping that the Wii u has its own unique mode.
Re: First Impressions: Tomodachi Life
@mullen Ahh. Cool. Thanks. That's even more than I thought it would be. There is definitely no doubt I'll be getting this game now.

So is there a limit how many Miis you can add?

Really looking forward to this game. Though I'll be getting the physical copy. Gotta save my space for download only titles.

Re: Talking Point: What We Expect In Nintendo Direct - 13th February
SMT x Fire Emblem would be really nice. I'm doubtful there will be footage, but it would be fantastic if there was.
Re: Wii U and 3DS Nintendo Direct Confirmed for 13th February
Because the Direct starts almost right after school. Should of made that clearer.
Re: Wii U and 3DS Nintendo Direct Confirmed for 13th February
Man, the wait for school t to get over is torture.
Re: Wii U and 3DS Nintendo Direct Confirmed for 13th February
