You guys should make an article about what "core gamer" actually means. For me I think of a core gamer as someone who has played games all their life, or at least for quite a long time. Someone who knows about games and franchises and stuff. Not the people who started gaming with Call of Duty 4 and buy every western game that the super mainstream media hypes up. Monster Hunter and Pokemon are some of the most hardcore games I've ever played, Call of Duty is about as shallow as it gets.
The Google Translate bit was funny. That's Pearl Harbor day in the US. I bet some rednecks wouldn't like a Japanese product being released on that day. How indicative is this of the US pricing, considering the exchange rates?

You there, in the bushes, you have until he count of five to tell me what you're referring to before I start throwing sharp objects. One...two...four...
I really wish devs would stick to this kind of 2D sprites. I hate the high definition sprites everyone's using these days. I wanna see some pixels, dammit.
@ant exactly what I'm thinking. I was pretty hyped for Red Steel, ended up disappointed. I was weary of Zombi U at first but these videos make it look really good. But we won't know until it's released.
I saw some Mario Kart building toy things at Walmart, not Lego but some other brand. Wonder if that'll make it less likely since Nintendo already has a deal with that company.

Re: E3 2012: New Super Mario Bros. 2 Gets Co-operative

Re: E3 2012: Sports Connection Steps Up to the Plate
