Haha, if only!!! I so would watch that. Closest thing we got to a Metroid cartoon was this: Mother Brain

Freaky.

Same here! The Sonic Advance series was great and I think may have been overlooked by many. I hope it still has a chance on the GBA Virtual Console. Maybe we should find a way to contact them?

@ThomasBW84 I appreciate the shout-out! I'm happy to contribute in any way I can, however small it is.

As for the DLC, it looks amazing! When I first thought of Playable Zelda, her Twilight Princess design came to mind. I feel we didn't see her do a whole lot in Twilight Princess, so I'm glad we can see her fight with that awesome design as well!
Also really excited for Zant!! I assume he'll be made playable at some point in the game too, maybe after the main story. (Still hoping for Tingle to show up.. XD)

Wow. I understand not everyone is a gamer, and not everyone follows game news, but if you're going to write a professional article, do some research! A quick Google search could have made all the difference.

I still hope they bring back the canceled Kirbys Tilt n Tumble 2 that was being developed on Gamecube. The Wii U Gamepad would perfectly take the place of the connected GBA and tilt sensor.

@bezerker99 The original control scheme with the Wii Remote + Nunchuck is great; very accurate and works well on the TV, but if you prefer game-pad only play, that's when you see how the Dual analog control isn't so great. And I did double-check, there is no Left-Handed option. The right stick always moves the camera, so you need your left hand to move your character. >_<

Wow, it actually happened! As I play on the Gamepad, I started to really wish this was an option but never expected it to be added suddenly! Using the dual analog feels so slow and clunky, since you have to hover over enemies to throw at them, rather than adjusting your cursors distance. I'll probably bother finishing this game now, thanks Nintendo!

She's consistently said in interviews Majora's Mask is her favorite game.. And its been a while since A Link Between Worlds.. But am I crazy for hoping for 3 Zelda games at E3?? Lol

If money wasnt a problem, I'd import this and keep my NA copy in there

How could they go without mentioning James McCloud? Yes, that name should be familiar to many of you.

I've always thought the Wii U Gamepad would be too perfect for Kirby Tilt n Tumble 2. I really hope the project is moved to Wii U but that would make too much sense for Nintendo

Their statement is a little arrogant, but having any Wii U exclusives would be a big help right now

Hopefully they will add different viewing and filter options! I know Nintendo wouldn't on their own.. >_< They will be too pixelated otherwise

As someone else mentioned, the "gay marriage" option was a glitch, and it was never intended to allow same sex couples in the game. I would welcome the option in the English version, but with how much Nintendo censors relating to gender/sexuality (changing Vivian to a girl in Paper Mario TYD, etc) I don't think they'd put the option in.

What im wondering, is for DS games on Wii U VC, will it be able to use the Nintendo Network connection of Wii U, or will they have to change the online structure? Because I think Nintendo will unfortunately just remove multiplayer and Wifi fuctions of those games too :/

"We'd love to come back to them sometime" implies the franchises he mentioned aren't being worked on, to me. I'd love them to re-imagine Star Fox though!

Haha, finally, an honest trailer of what the game is like!

BlatantlyHeroic is right! Im downloading Bank from my 3DS in North America And thanks for the detailed article, NintendoLife!

Wow, the thought crossed my mind, but didnt think it would actually happen. I understand its to help the Wii U, but I hope they make digital DS games available to 3DS owners as well in the future. By the way.. Where are the GBA games??

Capcom has said the game is too manga-styled, and has too many Japanese characters on the screen for them to edit the images and translate. But I don't think many people would mind them just adding captions over the Japanese, at least we could play this game still! They can leave the voices in Japanese, like Project X Zone. But I think this game would have the potential to sell if word got out!

Lol. Yes, in Japanese his new ability is pronounced and written as "Big Ban", but it actually does mean "Big Bang". An English trailer had revealed the localized version of the ability will be called "Hypernova" instead.

Im just glad someone from Nintendo mentioned Star Fox and Metroid..

When Nintendo announced GBA games for the Wii U Virtual Console, did they say it would happen before the end of the year? There has been no news on it! Or any new systems for VC! >_< They need more staff to handle everything theyre trying to do.

More baby steps.. Maybe within a year or two we'll have the account system we're looking for.. sigh

I'm glad they added YouTube support, but I can watch YouTube on almost any of my devices. Since YouTube Supports 3D video, it would really help the 3DS stand out if it could also play clips in 3D. We know its possible, they just have to get it done

Aw, Bowser Jr finally gets to spend time with Mama. Its all he ever wanted

I understand what the 2DS is and who is aimed towards, but when I see they altered the 3D effect on Link Between Worlds to accommodate 2DS owners, I'm concerned. I hope 3D is still relevant in upcoming titles and used in interesting ways.

They keep talking about increasing the Virtual Console lineup but they don't deliver. The Wii U library is still pathetic compared to the Wii's. And what about the GBA games they promised?

I have been yearning for this game..!! Even eShop only works, as long as I can play it. Love the artwork and it looks packed with content and in interesting story. If Namco Bandai is actually paying attention to fans, we should speak up and show support!

I'm normally not a big Shooter fan, but I think FPS games could work really well on the 3DS! Still hoping for Metroid, but I'll keep an eye on this too!

I hope the severs don't crash at midnight when everyone (myself included) tries to download the Digital Version!!

Wow. Many of the characters he's referring to are just for comic relief. Not everything needs to be analyzed politically, Nintendo isn't trying to send some subliminal message, they're just trying to create interesting and funny characters. And the ad they're referring to was from the 90's!

So excited! Hoping they find a way to implement Co-Op gameplay, but even if they can't, it'll be a day-one purchase for me!

Aw, there goes my hope of Sonic + Tails being the same character.. I hope they update his moveset, you can only have so many spindash moves.. Get him breakdancing again like in Sonic battle!

Downloading this the moment it's available! Come on, midnight launch!!

I hope the DLC songs I wasted my money on will transfer over

Like others commenting, I don't think I have been recieving any Streepass Hits when I'm walking past several Nintendo Zones, and wait there a few minutes. I also agree it should send more than 1 Streetpass hit to your system.

I was a fan of the Metroid: Other M live action commercial, and have been wondering how an actual film would turn out. I'm hoping this project can at least match that level of quality.

For those who haven't seen it, here's the Metroid: Other M TV Commercial.

I'm excited they're finally acknowledging that little guy. But I was hoping regular Kangaskhan would look a little powered-up like the other Megas.

I love this game and have explored every inch of The Great Sea, but have always felt the difficulty was very low. Many enemies barely cause any damage. I would love to dive right into Hard mode! >

Maybe if they brought more games to the West (Much larger customer base than Japan alone), or actually made a new Megaman game, they wouldn't be having this problem..

Wouldn't it make more sense for this to come to Wii U with the NFC sensor built in? Well, no chance for western release anyway.

Would love to have some DLC for Pikmin! Nintendo seems to understand making the game a complete experience and releasing it, before planning to add DLC. As long as you aren't required to purchase the DLC to get the full experience, I'm happy to have more content after I've finished the game.

Does this add the Skyward Sword and Xenoblade puzzles for the US? Also, to progress in these new Streetpass games, do I have to pass people who have also purchased the new games?

I never understand why Capcom says there is no interest in the Megaman Legends series, when they add Tron Bonne to every crossover game they make. (Most recently, Project X Zone) Isn't she from Megaman Legends too?? Makes completely no sense..

I don't understand why the Tingle Bottle is even an item. Can't you do the exact same thing by opening Miiverse directly?? And it makes sense the GamePad isn't used, because player 1 would be using it. I think not using the DS/3DS is a missed opportunity..

I've always loved how Sonic games let you play as multiple characters. Colors and Generations were great games, but I am really hoping for different playable characters again.

I hope World Ends With You: Solo Remix ends up getting ported. Not sure if it needs multi-touch though..

Meanwhile, we are still waiting to see if we'll get Kirbys Dreamland 2 on 3DS VC.. I would get all these Kirby games for Wii U if I was able to, at least I'd have something to play on it..

The drawing/painting elements could work perfectly with the GamePad
