Nintendo seem to miss a lot of deadlines it sets.
I don't mind if it's correcting issues, but it would still be nice if stuff came out on time.

@rjejr Mint

Digimon was the only one which really made traction as a rival.
Maybe even Monster Rancher on a lower scale.

Even then it was pale in comparison to Pokemon's success.

Some things just can't be imitated to the same success.

Pokemon just came at the right time, everything fell into place, and the rest is history.

I think it looks great, and have since the reveal.

I just want good Nintendo games.
Aslong as the machine has great software I'm sold.

But I agree they need to come in with a low price, and an original innovate idea.

And they need to show they are dedicated to the hardware, and not abandon consumers who have shelled out hard earned cash for their home console.

I love Wii U, but as an owner of one this year, I can't help but feel forgetton about.
Which I admit, partially I can understand.

But to a lot of Wii U owners, that could make them hesitant about buying an NX.

@fiben1002 mint haha

From a business sense, this makes total sense.

Personally, I've dreaded this day, and it has finally come.

Still, in the scheme of things, could be the best decision Nintendo makes.
Steaming ahead into mobile that is.

The worst ads are the current Nintendo ads, with people sat on a couch playing the games.

The Dreamcast was the first machine I felt you got graphics which almost that of PC at the time.
It was the first to attempt to bridge the gap in playing catch up.

In the previous comment, I agree, Soul Calibur blew me away.
But nothing blew me away more, than the fact you could finally play Quake 3 Arena on a console.

I was a long fan of that game, and to see it actually run on a console, was outstanding at that time.

My personal favourite on Dreamcast was probably Shenmue 1&2

Power Stone 2 was also sick.

Well that looks terrible.

I never knew anyone with a Jaguar, but I always heard the Alien Vs. Predator game was amazing.

I debated buying a Jag a few years ago with Doom.
But decided against it, as I must of bought Doom 8 times already on different formats.

I remember asking my dad about Street Fighter 1, back when Street Fighter II came out for the Snes.
All I can remember him saying was, it was a waste of time and the series should of began at 2.

Personally I've never played the original, so I can't comment.
But I've never heard anything good about it.
I'll have to try it at some point, and make my own mind up about it.

Mario Galaxy 3DS, it's going to be announced.
Hopefully...

On one hand I'm disappointed there is still no talk of NX, but on the other hand I get it they want to keep their cards close.

I just hope after the wait, it's going to be worth it.
I'm optimistic it will be, but it will completely suck, if we've waited all this time with no Info for garbage.

I can't wait for this, more so than anything I'm excited about this year.
That being, Paper Mario Colour Splash, Bioshock Collection, Skyrim HD and Gears of War 4.

@A01 likely Playstation 4, as it's been seen playable before by the developer.

I'm being naive, reading between the lines too much, and over believing Mario Galaxy is coming to 3DS.

@samuelvictor Seems like a few people want that physical copy or NSLU, me included.
And I made the same stupid mistake, £10 in sainsburies and I passed on it.

@goonow Yeah it's up there just don't fancy those prices for a used game.
I may crack one day, and just go for it.

@Simbabbad that's true, but I want the physical copy of NSLU on it's own.

It would be great if Nintendo made more physical copies of New Super Luigi U.
The ones on eBay sell for ridiculous prices.
Can't find it anywhere in the shops.

The other problem is you can't download it off the eShop anymore either.
You can only download it with New Super Mario Bros U.
For myself I already have that on disc, and don't fancy paying again for something I already have.

It was great playing this on a handheld the first time round.
But when you stack this up, against the N64 original, which was specifically designed for a home console.
It doesn't make sense buying the DS version for your Wii U.

First games machine we had, can remember watching dad play Mortal Kombat on it when he bought It.
That Christmas when I was 4, I got the original Mario Kart, I can remember it vividly.

Seems like a missed opportunity, probably would of played quite well.

If anything it's done kids the world of good, getting them off their asses to go outside and hang out.

I must say though, in my job I drive buses.
And twice kids have walked in front of the bus playing Pokemon Go not thinking what they are doing.
It's a concern, as 10 tonnes of metal against flesh and bone...
You get the picture.

@ECMIM Just saying it's something of a hidden gem really.

A lot of people would say Ristar.

As for WrestleWar, I always wondered if it was a WCW game they couldn't get the license for.
Hence why they used the name WrestleWar, which was in fact a WCW Pay Per View at that point.
Also, the voice over at the beginning definitely sounds like a Jim Ross clone.
Too my knowledge though, Hulk Hogan wouldn't jump ship to WCW until 1994.

@BLPs Let's hope Nintendo are listening.
We want Pokemon Streets Of Rage.

@Mogster There was a couple of reasons really.

The first was the price, as I wanted it with the Hori pad, so that was looking at £59.99 at the cheapest.
As much as I liked the footage, I thought it looked fun but a bit linear and repetitive.
Also I like the Pokemon series, but can't claim to be it's biggest fan, so it went to the back of the list that month.
Seem to recall buying something for the Xbox One instead that month.

Would happily pay £19.99 for it.

How have you found it ?

Nintendo should get behind this and start plugging it for their console.
Like many, I had no doubt about Playtonics ability, but this has completely surpassed what I expected.
Looks incredible, and it's a delight to say that.

If it comes to Nintendo Selects I will buy it.
Could never justify the full price for this game.
Looks like a good beat em up, baring in mind there is a lot better out there.

@MowMow789 likely undedicated people who talk the talk, but can't walk it.

They need to hurry up and reveal this thing.

I hope it's Tegra 1 purely based on price.
If they come in with Tegra 2 and it's expensive, it will sink like lead in water.
Come in with an affordable price, have a good product, you will hit the deck running with a good chance of success.

@Martendo Stunt Race FX was sick !

A Chibi Robo game, people will actually buy and appreciate.

Their biggest mistake was not distinguishing it as a new console.
A lot of people thought, it was a tablet for the original Wii.
Complete missed opportunity.

I don't think it's been a flop, broke even, just not a great success.

Personally i still think it offers more than Xbox One.
For now at least.

@HSuzumiyaVI Fair enough, glad you like it.

@HSuzumiyaVI I don't have a problem with 3DS getting replace. I'm all for a new Nintendo handheld.

I'm just not entirely sold on this hybrid console/handheld NX Rumours.

I feel bad for Nintendo to be honest.
With the modern world, everything these days is so divided.
They are damned if they do, and damned if they don't.
You have one camp who wants a high end machine, a clone of PS4/XBone which plays Nintendo games.
Then the other, who wants innovation, new ideas, being prepared to let the spec slide in favour of originality.
Then you have people who want something else entirely.

I just feel from my stand point, all I care about is decent Nintendo games coming out.
I don't particularly care what they look like, as long as play great and are fun.
I would be even happy if they just turned around, and said, look where just going to release all our previous/current systems rolled up into one, and develop for all of them to give everyone what they want.
8bit,16bit, 64bit, Modern let's keep everyone happy.

As for NX portable idea, I'm not sold.
I want a machine to be purely a home system.
I don't want to play it on the move, I've got a 3DS for that.
I don't want to look at a small screen, I want it on my TV with the volume cranked up, and my seat pulled close so it's all I can see.

I also worry about the fact, if the NX is a portable, can you imagine if you broke that thing on the move ?
It's not going to be cheap.
That's going to put a lot of parents off if you ask me.
It's a pain in the ass enough not being able to get a replacement Wii U tablet, let alone even thinking about taking an NX out on the move.

The bottom line for me is, I just want great Nintendo games.
High quality games which are fun and innovate.
Whatever NX is I'll be getting it, but they need to get back to basics and think what makes Nintendo great.

Fun, Originality and bringing people together.

It will come to a Nintendo platform.
Absolutely, no need to worry about that.

@SLIGEACH_EIRE Exactly how I feel

@nintendofan64 Fair enough reason.

I'm looking forward to this, regardless of what the mass consensus is thinking.
This in some sense could be one of the last hurrahs for Wii U, and I think people need to get off the band wagon, and at least wait to try it when it's out.

The same applies for Metroid Federation Force.
I was on the fence watching the trailer initially.
But you know if it actually plays well, it would be wrong to write It off without even trying it properly.

Went to download this before, and it must not of been released on the European VC yet.
Anyone got an idea when it may be landing ?

Interesting review, but it's bang off the mark.
Bonk is more like an 8, it's a PC Engine classic.
This is why you shouldn't go off reviews, judge a game yourself before writing it off.

VR is an expensive fad, it's not going to catch on

Here's hoping for Sonic Adventure 3.

@Grumblevolcano Sonic 06 was terrible mind, maybe a good thing.
Generations on the other hand, different story right.

Microsoft were really after Sega at that point.
And from what I gather it was rejected by the Japanese board.
The head of Sega of America, Bernard Stolar, really pushed to make the deal happen.
Sega of Japan were unanimously against the buy out.

That's a shame as it is actually pretty solid.
The press killed that, copying each other's reviews jumping on the bandwagon.
I enjoyed both aspects of that game, critically underrated game.

This reminds me of the ads from 90s.
Specifically Sega's, and of course Nintendo's of that time.
