@DavidHolliss Oh your post made me assume you thought it was retail, as you said "with the games." In my experience DL cards are on a separate rack with accessories.
@XCWarrior They can't, can they? Each figure is sold in a pod so you don't know what you get until you buy it, so they can't really make "Legendary" figures with a jacked up price, unless they'd be willing to cram them into regular pods at the same price.
(well, those that are allowed up past 10PM) - are you implying your readers are five-year olds? Could've picked someone with a little more recognition though.
@JuanitoShet I still don't understand why people love to use "they revived gaming" as an excuse to defend them. It was over 30 years ago, why keep bringing it up? Past successes shouldn't excuse present failures.
Why is Ubi insulting the president by gifting him a child's toy? Surely the PRESIDENT would rather receive something with a little more class, say a vase or a painting.
@akabenjy No, he said the IDEAS went into future Zeldas, not the actual dungeon, so now we'll never know what these cut dungeons look like. And if you'd bothered to read the article, you'd know he acknowledged what Anouma said, but doesn't care, and insists they should be in the remake anyway, which I am fully in agreement with. Nintendo is as lazy as crap with their remakes these days, doing the absolute bare minimum and nothing else outside of a couple of gimmick features that take advantage of new controls.
Why are so many eshop games 5-6/10 or lower? Come on man, i want to buy stuff outside of the usual devs, but with so much junk getting on the eshop it doesn't give me a lot of incentive.....
About time! I've been waiting since release for this review, only to buy it day one and be disappointed with the fact that i'd bought a PS1 game.(it sure looks like one)
Arzest, aka people from Artoon, aka the people who made the crappy Yoshi's Island DS and Yoshi's Universal Gravitation. Says it all really. Why EAD couldn't have handled it is beyond me.
I bet nintendo chose not to do a conference because they knew what they had to show wouldn't be met with roaring applause like 2010 and more like crickets chirping.
how many times has this been reviewed now? once for wii vc then again for 3ds and again on wii u vc? you don't need to keep re-reviewing a game very time its released on another vc platform.
do i look like i care about "commercial sense?" because i don't. release something in summer or autumn for once instead of reserving everything for "xmas sales"

Re: Nintendo Download: 19th September (Europe)
Zzzzzzzz...... very boring week. Still waiting for chibi and Picross 3.
Re: Wii Karaoke U by JOYSOUND to Threaten Neighbour Relations From 4th October
Well that's implying anyone buys it in the first place...
Re: Leaked Ubisoft Games Confirmed, but Skipping Nintendo Platforms
Considering almost all of them are smartphone games and the other is a HD remake, i don't think it's that huge a blow.
Re: Talking Point: The Wii U May Be Playing Catch-Up With Some Developers, But Money Always Talks
"Money Always Talks"
You mean the fact Wii U has barely made any?
Re: New Theatrhythm: Final Fantasy Release Hinted at in Trademark
I hope given SE's recent track record it's not overloaded with DLC.
Re: Nintendo Download: 5th September (Europe)
Wow this is a horrible week. No Picross E3? Knowing Nintendo, it'll be the END of september as opposed to any of the other 4 weeks.
Re: Talking Point: The Wii U's Limited Hard Drive Space and Future Install Headaches
Annoying but extremely unsurprising that nintendo decided to cheap out once again. Even my phone has more memory than both models.
Re: Review: Pokémon Rumble U (Wii U eShop)
I'm quite sad to hear Nintendo isn't bothering to flex their graphical muscles as much as they used too
Re: Pokémon Rumble U Figurines and Special Edition Available From GAME in the UK
@DavidHolliss Oh your post made me assume you thought it was retail, as you said "with the games." In my experience DL cards are on a separate rack with accessories.
Re: Pokémon Rumble U Figurines and Special Edition Available From GAME in the UK
@DavidHolliss It's a DL game, no retail version. They are selling a card with a DL code and figures.
Re: Toys R Us Announces Exclusive Range of Disney Infinity "Crystal" Figures
@XCWarrior They can't, can they? Each figure is sold in a pod so you don't know what you get until you buy it, so they can't really make "Legendary" figures with a jacked up price, unless they'd be willing to cram them into regular pods at the same price.
Re: There's a Real-Life Mario Kart for Sale
No glider no buy.
Re: Super Mario Bros. 2 Available On The 3DS Virtual Console Right Now in Europe
Really wish it was Mario Advance - that's the best version
Re: Video: UK Comic Rufus Hound Explains The Wii U Difference
(well, those that are allowed up past 10PM) - are you implying your readers are five-year olds? Could've picked someone with a little more recognition though.
Re: New Nintendo Direct Coming August 7th, Focus Is "Previously Announced" Wii U And 3DS Software
@zoroarkrules25 "Previously announced software."
Re: Nintendo Most Likely To Produce Gaming-Centric Tablet, Says Game Designer Jesse Schell
@JuanitoShet I still don't understand why people love to use "they revived gaming" as an excuse to defend them. It was over 30 years ago, why keep bringing it up? Past successes shouldn't excuse present failures.
Re: Ubisoft Gives French President François Hollande A Wii U
@Mahe All consoles (and video games as a whole) are primarily marketed towards kids though.
Re: Ninterview: Dan Clarke And Jake Smith Talk Project Dolphin, A Print-Based GameCube Tribute
Yep, still not buying it - games can never and will never be art.
Re: Ubisoft Gives French President François Hollande A Wii U
Why is Ubi insulting the president by gifting him a child's toy? Surely the PRESIDENT would rather receive something with a little more class, say a vase or a painting.
Re: Nintendo Most Likely To Produce Gaming-Centric Tablet, Says Game Designer Jesse Schell
@TobiasAmaranth Multi touch won't help their system when they can't even be bothered to make games for their own system.
Re: Disney Infinity's First Wave of Power Disc "Blind Packs" Is Revealed
I'm starting to see why they called the game "infinity..."
Re: Nintendo Feels That Working On Smartphones And Tablets Would "Decrease Brand Value"
I would cringe the day i see an officially licensed Mario shovelware game on mobiles.
Re: Flipnote Studio 3D European Release is Delayed
Pathetic.
Re: Mario Kart Arcade GP DX Racing to Arcades
"Like Mario Kart 7 on steroids, and probably not as good"
Implying MK7 was good.
Re: Warner Bros. Announces The LEGO Movie Videogame For Wii U And 3DS
What's next? Lego Movie Videogame Book Musical Screenplay?
Re: Feature: When it Comes to Games, What's in a Name?
I agree, i don't see the point of "bros," just like i don't understand why LM2 is numbered over here, but not in US.
Re: Review: Metroid (Wii U eShop / NES)
By Zebes, its a 3 decade old game that has been re-released on every Nintendo console since the GBA.
Re: Wii U Summer System Update Pushed Back To The Fall
@sinanziric beg to differ, 11 was worse. The only things worth a damn that entire year were skyward sword, oot 3d, and 2 3ds mario games.
Re: Wii U Summer System Update Pushed Back To The Fall
@FineLerv Why? Just turn them off. I can't believe people get their panties in such a bunch over them.
Re: Wii U Summer System Update Pushed Back To The Fall
Oh what a surprise. Please just get it the hell together nintendo, this year has just been one big embarrassment.
Re: Soapbox: Why We Should Expect More From The Legend Of Zelda: Wind Waker HD
@Guitardude7 I disagree with you.

Re: Talking Point: The Wii U Has Plenty of Opportunities for "Brand-New Types of Games"
Soooo.... why aren't there any?
Re: Zelda-Inspired Ittle Dew Heading To The Wii U eShop This Year
Sorry, I don't play cheap imitations. Its either the real deal or nothing for me.
Re: Weirdness: UK Survey Determines What Makes an "Average UK Gamer"
75% of the UK market are probably chavs in cex who buy nothing but cod and fifa.
Re: Nintendo Direct: Denpa Men 3 And Chibi-Robo AR App Confirmed In Japanese Broadcast
The return of Chibi!!!! Too bad we'll never see him
Re: Global Link For Pokémon Black And White Titles Will Cease On 14th January 2014
Are DPPL services still online? Because i never recall seeing anything saying otherwise.
Re: Review: Aqua Moto Racing 3D (3DS eShop)
Why are so many eshop games 5-6/10 or lower? Come on man, i want to buy stuff outside of the usual devs, but with so much junk getting on the eshop it doesn't give me a lot of incentive.....

Re: First Impressions: Yoshi's New Island
Arzest, aka people from Artoon, aka the people who made the crappy Yoshi's Island DS and Yoshi's Universal Gravitation. Says it all really. Why EAD couldn't have handled it is beyond me.
Re: Angry Birds Trilogy Flocks to Wii and Wii U in August
Here's an idea - instead of it coming to the Wii U, why can't it just... not?
Re: Iwata: Nintendo Searching For A "Different Expression" To Describe The GamePad's Experience
Maybe try making games that actually use the damn thing?
Re: Talking Point: Nintendo's Curious Decision to Monetise StreetPass
so they give us the option to buy games but not complete puzzle panels? why???
Re: Feature: The Big Nintendo E3 Survey
I bet nintendo chose not to do a conference because they knew what they had to show wouldn't be met with roaring applause like 2010 and more like crickets chirping.
Re: Review: Yoshi (Wii U eShop / NES)
how many times has this been reviewed now? once for wii vc then again for 3ds and again on wii u vc? you don't need to keep re-reviewing a game very time its released on another vc platform.
Re: Talking Point: Nintendo's Wii U Lineup Makes Commercial Sense
do i look like i care about "commercial sense?" because i don't. release something in summer or autumn for once instead of reserving everything for "xmas sales"
Re: Miyamoto Focuses on New Gameplay Experiences Before New IPs
Funny how i saw no new gameplay experiences either yesterday.
Re: Ubisoft Scaling Back Support For Wii U, Expects Price Cut To Bolster Sales
Good riddance, can't stand your casual trash anyway.
