So excited!!! Fair review! Game deserves a 10 but effort on Nintendos part deserves an 8. Shame they didn't add those missing dungeons in but heck, still a classic game!
@Glare I feel the same way about Froakie, best starter to come along since Gold/Silver in my opinion. I love him! Bit disappointed his beard seems to be less prominent though
Wow! Big news! Second evolution is always the least important so I'll wait till the third evolutions are revealed before I judge. So far I still LOVE Froakie
@unrandomsam I guess it just Eli inmates some of the risk (seeing as they would normally have to invest there own money in their projects. I wondered the same thing when I heard WayForward are kick-starting a Shaetae game.
Man Nintendo have always amazed me with how much they can cram in to a cartridge. Thier games are always so well compressed. Not that it matters... This is definitely a game I don't want to download. Hard Copy please!
By far, the worst Zelda game I have ever played! I haven't played the first two Zeldas, played all the rest and Twilight Princess sucked. It had its moments and I didnt mind the motion controls but it was just sooooo average.
First of all, that was the best tag-line in the history of the world. Tri-forcing them hahaha classic. Secondly, this is just another reason to hate Nintendo Australia, the most useless bunch of people on earth.
@Bilko I did the same thing! Best decision I ever made. Bought a 32gb USB stick and a copy of Nintendo Land second hand for $10 and BAM! My Wii U still looks brand new, with no finger prints and smudges. The white model is waaaaaay better than the black!
@jrob23 I do get sick of defending the Wii U on IGN too. It's such a great console, it really is. Wish people would give it a go. It's too soon to say but I honestly think that it's well on its way to being my favourite Nintendo console of them all. And I've owned them all!
@jrob23 What Darren is saying (and I thought the " " made it clear), is that the Wii-U is perceived as being 'last gen' and therefore the price being so close to the PS4's is an issue. Which it is. I don't think he is saying Wii-U is last gen at all.
O, and as for the Wii-U price cut? I think it's a smart move as it further distances it from the PS4/XB1 price point. As an early adapter though, it kinda sucks.
Wow I just woke up and saw the news! I thought this was an April 1st joke at first =P Honestly I like it and I kind of want one! I love the 3D feature of the 3DS though and always play with it on, so I hope future handhelds by Nintendo stick with 3D.
Man, this was so out of the blue. Nintendo still knows how to surprise!
Still on the fence about buying this. One of the few NES games I never got to play and so I won't have the nostalgia glasses needed to ignore some of the games (apartantly) big flaws...
Finally playing through ZomibU and loving it. Also Kid Tripp on my iPad. Can get through it only losing 2 lives but not going to rest until I get through it without dying.

@Shadowkiller97 Ahhhhh good call
Re: CoroCoro Magazine Reveals Pokémon X & Y Starter Evolutions, Mega Mewtwo X and New 'Mon
It's funny people here are saying Fennekin will end up fire/psychic... Judging by the legs and stick/broom I'd say it is going to be fire/dark.

Re: Poké Transporter Confirmed for X & Y
Does anyone know if it will work for Heart Gold/Soul Silver???
Re: Poké Transporter Confirmed for X & Y
@gaby_gabito No, that's why badges are needed to control Pokemon over certain levels. Been a part of the series since day one.
Re: Hideki Kamiya "Would Be Honoured" If One Of His Creations Made It Into Smash Bros.

Man... I got excited when I saw the article. I thought it was talking about Lost World! Dammit, time to learn how to read.
Re: Video: Want To See Just How Much Better Zelda: Wind Waker Looks In HD?
Beautiful
Re: Here's How Much Space Zelda: The Wind Waker HD Will Take Up On Your Wii U
Man Nintendo have always amazed me with how much they can cram in to a cartridge. Thier games are always so well compressed. Not that it matters... This is definitely a game I don't want to download. Hard Copy please!
Re: Nintendo Download: 5th September (Europe)
Ouch, definitely a poor week.
Re: Feature: The Biggest Wii U Games of 2013 - Autumn / Fall Edition
Such a hard decision! I think if I could have any game handed to me right now to play, it would have to be DKC. I tear into it so bad!
Re: Peter Molyneux Reveals His Favourite Zelda Title Of All Time
By far, the worst Zelda game I have ever played! I haven't played the first two Zeldas, played all the rest and Twilight Princess sucked. It had its moments and I didnt mind the motion controls but it was just sooooo average.
Re: Talking Point: What Games Are You Playing This Weekend? - Issue Sixteen
Always gets me how you guys play so many games at once
Me, I'm in the mood to download something old school. Maybe Super Ghouls and Ghosts at last!

Re: Wii U Basic Supply Will Become "Limited" in The UK
@Bilko I did the same thing! Best decision I ever made. Bought a 32gb USB stick and a copy of Nintendo Land second hand for $10 and BAM! My Wii U still looks brand new, with no finger prints and smudges. The white model is waaaaaay better than the black!

Re: Wii U Deluxe Model Gets Official $50 Price Cut in North America
@citizenerased Haha I agree. No one forced me to buy the console at full-price. It stings a little, but all this complete out rage is silly.
Re: Wii U Deluxe Model Gets Official $50 Price Cut in North America
Big news! I think this is smart by Nintendo and it positions the Wii-U well for the Christmas holidays. As an early adapter, it stings a little bit.

Re: Giana Sisters: Twisted Dreams May Get A Patch To Solve GamePad Audio Problems
Is this game any good? I'm really interested in it, but there's not a lot of reviews out there for it. Looking forward to Nintendo life's review!
Re: DuckTales: Remastered Update to Target Leaderboard Issues on Wii U

Re: Nintendo Download: 29th August (Europe)
Rayman! I feel like I've been waiting forever. The challenges app was good but didn't want to spoil the main game so tried not to play it too much!
Re: Weirdness: Nintendo Releases "Finding Luigi" Parkour Mockumentary

Re: BIT.TRIP SAGA Will be Just $5 in the North American eShop From 1st September
