Weak numbers across the board. And LOL @ Vita TV.

Its kinda hard to disagree with him when you look at Wii U sales, the markets reaction to it, and the lineup of games(or lack of) they have right now and coming to the system in the near future.

Just think of how much crow MS would be eating if they didnt change their initial Xbone policies This is pretty cool though. Its interesting to see what major retailers are doing to combat the transition many gamers are making when leaning towards digital purchases or not wanting to pay full prices for software

Nintendo should get him to make a 2D Metroid for the 3DS or their next handheld.
@DarkKirby
Umm...what?

This and a few of their other moves makes Nintendo's decision to have BC hardware kind of weird.

I literally just finished the 1st game yesterday(Dat 3DS BC) and I liked it a lot. I'm really looking forward to catching up with the series since I hear it gets much better.

Squeenix left money on the table by not publishing this in NA.
@Peach64
B/C the Wii U isnt selling well and this is a Nintendo-fan site.

Disappointing.
Hopefully they will release it before the end of Spring.

The comments on this article.... >_>

Stay classy NL.

@minotaurgamer
Please stop the the market is dying nonsense. Its annoying seeing these comments every time Nintendo's numbers are down. Yes, mobile is here to stay and eating into the handheld market but I didn't hear this stuff when the 3DS was selling like crazy last year so dont do it now...and consoles arent going to sell well in that region regardless.

I wouldn't say its a challenge due to the overall sales, but it is interesting to see the Vita's numbers have been close to those of the 3DS recently. The 3DS numbers have been DOWN lately but I dont know if its due to a need of more software or just over-saturation.

Its should be interesting to see how Nintendo plays their hand with this situation since they've obviously shifted many of their their resources to the Wii U to address its many problems....maybe release the 2DS in Japan?

Regardless, congrats to Sony I guess. The Vita will most likely be looked at as a failure when its all said and done but at least they've been able to find a niche audience for it. Maybe the PS4 doing so well will help too.

I need this game in my life.
@PrincessEevee9
I'll take you up on that bet

I'm trying to stay positive but man I did not expect a follow up to such a classic game to turn out like this

I'll check it out eventually but I'm not in a rush.

I'm pretty excited for this!

Its what's on the inside that counts.

The Mega Man series has always had GREAT music so I'm glad to see(and hear) that Mighty No. 9 will be the same.

Hopefully the game can live up to all the hype.

I'm not expecting much.
I hate to be nonchalant or negative but this is more than likely just stability and them getting ready for releases of major games like Mario Kart and other major titles that will be released during the 2nd half of this year.

I honestly dont mind it though. Smash Bros NEEDS to have a good online experience this time around and games like X will be devalued if the online aspects of the game are shotty.

They've always been aware. The fanbase has been pretty vocal for some time time now.

That doesn't change the fact that we probably won't see one any time soon. The franchise indeed needed to take a break and I think Capcom got to the point where they wanted to make a new game but didn't know where to go with the next installment. They probably still dont and I dont mind them holding out until they get some good concepts instead of running the series into the ground with bad games like they've done with other IPs they own.

Also, anyone expecting the next game to be on a console will more than likely be disappointment. Believe it or not, Mega Man games dont sell very well and its a safer bet to put it on the Vita or 3DS.

Still too much

Does this game have online multiplayer?

This looks like a must buy!

There's a lot of haters in here. Why even speak on this if you arent interested in the game?

I'm convinced that the VC lineup is some type of inside joke at Nintendo.

Gabe has good taste. 64 is still the best Mario game.

So this is a F2P game? -________-

I got it last time and still havent opened mine but this is def nice for those who missed out. Hopefully they restock the 3DS charging cradles and game cases soon.

Based Atlus continues to bless the 3DS with great RPGs. I have this pre-ordered and I'm thinking about importing the original on the PSP before its released.

@PvtOttobot
This game is digital only so it doesn't really need to sell like crazy to be successful. I also think you're underestimating how many gamers still enjoy unique turn-based RPG experiences.

@bezerker99
This game was announced for the 360, PC, and Sega Dreamcast (LOL) before the Kickstarter had a Wii U stretch goal.

No updates on a 3DS port? -____- Wii U it is then.
@bezerker99
Why wouldn't it?

I own one and like my Wii U a lot, but I think he's right.

My 3DS is ready.
@WaveBoy
What do you mean by "another" year? This game was announced and funded less than 6 months ago. >_>

B b but the industry is crashing and the the PS4 and Xbone will struggle like the Wii U has. So much crow being eaten.
This was expected but I dont see it as a big deal as long as you find good games/experiences on the consoles you choose to invest in.

@jakysnakydx
To be fair, both the Xbone and PS4 have better sales than both previous consoles had at this point. So no...there is no dip and not everyone is hurting like you seem to believe.

There are strong vibes in this comment section from both Sony and Nintendo supporters. So embarrassing.

@PinkSpider
Knack was bundled and the producer of the game is Japanese. As a matter of fact, the only thing American about it is that Mark Cerny was the Director.

I assumed this had already happened, or at least thought it should have by now considering how long ago the Wii U was released. Regardless, congrats to Nintendo.

Why are ppl expecting the price to drop for this game? Nintendo's notable titles always go up in price after a while and there was a limited print of this.

Can't wait.

Is it weird that this is my most anticipated game for the Wii U this Spring? If its good I'll probably double dip and get it for my 3DS too.

This was cool for like 15 seconds and then it became nauseating.

PLEASE localize this in 2014.

I thought everyone did. Its obviously the better version.

I just want more rpgs. I dont care if they look like SNES games as long as they're good games.

They have some good games lined up so far.
Now please confirm some Mega Man titles

I think I'm going to get the iOS version and if I like it I'll double dip and get it on the Wii U too.

Yikes.
Nintendo might want to get that new console out on shelves asap. Its become obvious that the market doesnt care about the Wii U for whatever reason.

3rd parties showing Nintendo how to use that controller the right way, How did this game sell overall? I hope it did well because its one of the better games on the Wii U.

@element187
I started it a few days ago and its actually pretty decent. This is definitely weird though

I found out about this game like 2-3 weeks ago and I pretty hype to play it. Hopefully they can port it over to the 3DS as well.
