@NintendoMonkey I personally think the Wii U will never pass the PS4. It had a slow start which hurt it right off the bat and so did microsoft. So in terms of first appearance, Microsoft wins easliy. But the Wii U will still be a great console we will remember like the gamecube.
Mario Kart 8 is one of the best Mario Kart games in my opinion, but I think the reason everyone has picked it it becuse it's the newest, and you can't do that. You must pick which you like better maybe 5 or 10 years from now. This would ne a great time to reflect amd rate Mario Kart Wii and supper mario galaxy 1 or 2.
I agree with you there, Lego marvel was the best Lego 3ds game, but I thought they could do better. But i've always been told Lego City for the 3DS took forever to load and that there was too much "fog" in the game, so you couldn't see very far. But I don't think I would really want it anyways since I have the superior Wii U version.
I never liked the idea of Disney Infinity. First thing I didn't like: Disney. They have been getting worse and worse over the years, but everyone seems to like them more and more. Take Frozen for example, everyone loves it (Except me), but they have done better. So this video game sounds as good as the movies. The other thing I don't like: The price. It's 2 or 3 times more than skylanders, then adding the pricey characters, it just adds up. And the overall game is about as good as any other decent game, but like $60 cheaper. The only thing that draws me to it is the marvels characters. I'm a huge marvel fan. But even with that, I really don't think I was worth it. And I hope no one starts saying that I hate it even before I've started playing it, because I have all 3 skylanders games, and have tried Disney Infinity. I just don't think I'll bite for a 4th time.
Already have AC, I don't need another life drainer, but I do admit, this looks good. Very slight chance I'll pick this one up. But it was smart of them to release it right before summer break.
Mario Kart Wii holds the most memories for me being the first Mario Kart game I've played and owned. So excluding Mario kart 8 (which comes at 2nd) I would say 7 is third. I dearly want to get my hands on a copy of Double Dash!!, I've always wanted to try it with two player co-op
I must have updated the first couple of minutes cuz I was going on the eshop to see the video on how to get the free download code, then I turned it off, then about 10 minutes later, I turned it on and it wanted an update. Had to wait half an hour for it to update, then another hour for NSMBU to download.
We all have some memory like that. I never knew what a Nintendo system was until I was 6. We were at some sort of festival and there was a big green and white tent and under that tent was something my little 6 year old mind could not comprehend, a Wii and a Wii balance board. That with the Wii remote made me awestruck. About a year later we went over the details and were stuck between a GameCube and a Wii. At the time I desperately wanted a Wii since it was already 2007 and the GameCube was dieing, and the Wii had backwards compatibility. It was a week later when we got our Wii. I fell in love with it, playing Wii sports, Super Mario Galaxy 2, twilight and skyward sword. But If I looked up how many times I played online, Mario Kart Wii would be the winner. If not for the Wii, I probability would not have these memories.
Personally, my favorite Rainbow Road theme is MK Wii's. That was SO catchy and made me think of all the time and effort I put In to reach this stage. It is my absolute favorite course. So many memories...
@MAN1AC That was what I thought too. It would be nice if they did it, but is it REALLY essential? BTW, game stop sells wireless ones, or at least used to, but don't expect them to be Wii remote quality.
@Shambo I like the design for Sticks, but not really the others. I really hope they don't make her a permanent part of the team though. But eh, that's just me.
I won't be using the game cube controller for smash. (The Wii classic controller pro is the way to go for me) But if they announce GameCube VC I will be SO HYPED! I never got a chance to play many GameCube games. And even though I also have a Wii, GameCube games are so rare now-a-days.

Re: Nintendo Spain Secures Win Over R4 Card Retailer
Good to hear they finally wrapped R4 cards. Hopefully, the 3ds and Wii U won't have this large of a problem in the pirating category.
Re: Video: Check Out 3DS-Bound LEGO Ninjago: Nindroids In This Action-Packed Trailer
I have yet to see a good 3ds Lego game. Please tell me I'm wrong because the 3ds deserves much better.

So tempting to pick up after reading this. But I know I'll never touch this game again after summer break.
