You win some and you lose some, so I'm not going to chastise Nintendo for this. Its so easy to criticize business moves in hindsight and we don't even know all the specifics of the deal. Ninty is probably regretting this a lot though. Skylanders sells the best on their platform but I believe the franchise has grossed something like 2 Billion dollars or so. That's has to hurt a little.

Some of you are going to need to come to terms with the 3DS being Nintendo's lead platform this gen.

So the character is skateboarding on water?

Anyone that thinks this wont affect the Big 3 is kidding themselves.

And its probably going to be worse this year considering they've shifted a lot of resources to the Wii U. I'm not sure what QOL is but hopefully its works out for them or Iwata has an ace up his sleeve.

Its nice to see the Vita getting some momentum behind it but omg these numbers are depressing all around.

Shouldn't they wait for this? They'd make more money by not bundling it and I think its safe to say the game will sell well.

Other M was so bad that Miyamoto put him on Tomodachi Life and QOL duty.

They're announcing DLC and I haven't even opened the game yet.
This is great.

Nice review.
My copy should be waiting on me when I get home today. I probably wont start it for a week or so though...Radiant Historia is much longer than i expected it to be >_>

I'm probably in the minority, but I still like EA * shrugs * and I'm looking forward to both of these conferences. Hopefully Ubi shows us a lot more of The Division.

This game is gorgeous. I'm loving the FFVI influence.

"The Twitch Thing" LOL.
I'll be at work but will definitely keep a look out for impressions.

Doubling down on that mobile division
Edit: I was trying to make a troll post but holy crap this is to expand their mobile division -______-. This company cant burn to the ground fast enough. Absolutely disgusting.

Those software prices and Nintendo games "maintaining value" probably aren't helping.

The chances of Mewtwo returning are slowly slipping away.

Day 1 when its localized just like the first game.

Kind of disappointing that this is just a visual novel. It looks great though.

Unexpected since they just spent $20mil on Atlus not too long ago.

@rjejr
Agreed. This game seems to be easily worth the price of admission.

Its kinda weird how they're discontinuing and cancelling all this Wii stuff despite their new console being BC.

I actually like the changes in the design but hopefully they don't go overboard and take a lot of stuff out of the localized version of the game.

I need this game in my life.

Yea this is a day one purchase for me. It sounds and looks better every time Ubi updates us on the project.

Radiant Historia and Zero's Escape: Virtue's Last Reward.

1st party games leading the poll >_> What a surprise.
Conception 2, Persona Q, and Shovel Knight are at the top of my list.

I read bout that tax about to hit Japan in the paper a few days ago so this makes sense and I can't really blame anyone making gaming purchases before it hits.

I just got Abyss for the 3DS and I'll also get this if its localized. That's a big if but who knows. Abyss sold well according to Baba so I guess we'll have to wait and see.

What took so long? It feels like they cut the retail price on TW101 months ago.

I said last Spring that Iwata wouldn't be Nintendo's CEO by the time this gen ended due to him really not putting them in a good position for the future and I 'm sticking to my prediction. Or for the current time for that matter. He's really stunted the growth of the company.

I dont think he'll be canned this year, but I'm guessing whatever QOL is will be released and he'll be outed soon after.

1. Bayonetta 2
2. Everything else

More Blue Bomber is always a good thing.

I hate what this company has become.

Are ppl still complaining about this? Really?
Get over it.

@WiiULoveGBA
Or finally get their act together with their consoles. The days of relying on their handhelds to make huge profits or make up losses they have in the console market are gone and they need to adjust.

I bet these number look worse for NA and other regions.

@Obito_Tennyson
See you next gen.

Nothing for me.
[patiently waits for GBA VC to hit the eShop]

You gotta love that region locking!
@kensredemption
Its the same company that didn't even want to localize Bravely Default. There's a ridiculously small chance this makes its way over to the West and if it does Nintendo will be the one's footing the bill for it.

Lloyd would be pretty cool. I won't be losing an sleep if the rest of them don't end up in the game though.

No NA? What is this?

This looks pretty interesting.

@Tasuki
Out of all the negativity surrounding Nintendo, THIS is the thing that makes you start to think they're in a tough spot?

@JaxonH
Yes they are.

They made console that isnt selling well and they have not provide an environment for these games to thrive. 3rd party exclusives aren't even selling well on the system. I understand there's been some situations where DLC wasn't brought over but that is small in the grand scheme of things when you consider most gamers dont want to play vastly inferior multiplats, have aninferior online experience, and that it takes more resources to port a game over to the console and offer off screen play, etc.

The Wii U was built as a 1st party box and that's what it is now. That's not necessarily a bad thing though since it seems that 1st and 2nd party games is why most Wii U owners initially invested in the hardware.

I'm pretty sure its not coming to the Wii U. Maybe they'll release Watch Dogs on the platform around the time the next one comes out lol? Idk the entire situation sucks for Nintendo and those that want to play 3rd party games on their platform.
@FullbringIchigo
Sonic Lost World bombed and I bet Sonic Boom will do the same.

Ugh...

I just beat the 1st game of the series and I don't know whether to buy Justice for All or wait/hope for this to be localized It will most likely be eShop only if it does come over here, but still...

This is kind of a big deal and pretty unexpected. I prefer playing indie games on handhelds so I'm all for it

Conception II demo for me.

Deserved.
