I liked this in Nindies@home, but my only concern is I won't be able to play with others enough to really enjoy it. There are some games my brothers will play with me no question like Smash and Mario Kart, but they might not like this one and then I'll be left with no one to play with. A conundrum indeed.
I highly doubt this points to cartridges. It's possible, but much more likely a download-only console, which I don't think the consumers are ready for yet. All in all it's hard to say what this means, of course it may mean nothing.
I guess I now sort of understand what the guy was referring to, but that's just a ridiculously long stretch. Though the toy looks better than I thought it would, if they were in Canada I might get one.
The first one was fairly good I suppose, but I never got much of a sense of satisfaction from the puzzles, it didn't feel like I needed to be clever, just do the math as quickly as possible. Plus there weren't very many different songs and they weren't very good and I now detest all of them as a result. So I probably won't get this, but some classic Nintendo music mixed in would go a long way to making this a purchase.
Ashamed to admit I never played this game. I was born long after and Mario was never one of my favourite series until recently. It's on my to do list though! I had no idea about that movie reveal, that's crazy!
Those comments seem relatively harmless. If this was the only reason he was fired I think it's an overreaction. But I don't know the whole story, maybe there was more.
Awesome! Great character roster, stellar visuals. It was quite good in Nindies at home. The only thing I'm concerned about is whether I'll be able to get enough out of it, seeing as I don't play with other people a lot.
such a great game! tried playing the first one after, but couldn't get into it. this one's amazing, though, easily a 9. played through it all on normal, hard didn't seem much different to me, though.
That's really cool. Kinda annoyed about the 60 levels instead of 100, but there'll be a lot of content online. And what people have said here is right, celebrity levels could be an amazing thing for Super Mario Maker. I kind of doubt it'll happen, but it would be great.
I was sure they wouldn't do it, seems like it would cannibalize 3D version sales, but I guess they figure it's been long enough now. Just please, for all that's good and holy, come to North America!!!
I really want the original to come to NA, since I don't want to buy a N3DS just to play it, and I want to try it before X. Sigh, come on NoA, what the hell has happened to you, Europe has overtaken us so much lately!
So Nintendo's new idea of fun is telling me I'm fat and listening to me sleep? I hope not. Regardless, this isn't NX, but hopefully it'll be something decent.
Crazy stuff. I guess it would go on steam? A Nintendo-financed game on steam, nuts. I have no interest in playing this game, but the development process has certainly been intriguing.
Anyone who doesn't have Child of Light and has any interest, get it now. That's a great price on a phenomenal game. For myself, I might get Rayman Legends, not sure though
I didn't like Tengami very much. It was maybe an hour and a half of play, nothing that was especially great, way too little content for a $10 asking price, and you have to look at the gamepad the whole time, so the HD on the main screen is wasted.
Such a great game, my second favorite AW after Days of Ruin. The only one I didn't like very much was Dual Strike. Hard to say why, I just never liked it as much as the others.
Good article, a good summation of what Iwata contributed to the industry. I think he was often not recognized as well as he should have been, but now he's getting his just recognition.
My choices for Mario & Luigi from best to worst (though worst is not actually bad) 1. Superstar Saga 2. Partners in Time 3. Dream Team 4. Bowser's Inside Story (I like this game, but never understood why so many people liked it so much)
Definitely hugely influenced by Galaxy, but how is that a bad thing? Looks like it could be good. Also, these comments on the whole aren't very negative. Compared to cesspools like IGN or youtube comments, Nintendolife is a blessing
Holy crap! That's incredible! I didn't know they'd actually made a prototype that far along. That's the best alternate gaming history scenario right there.
Of course I'm disappointed my Wii U investment may be short-lived, but I've had some great times and will continue to with the games I haven't played yet and those yet to come. All I can say is, give me good reasons to buy an NX at launch. I want to support you, Nintendo, but you have to give me good reasons.
Not what anyone was expecting, but I'm really glad they're still innovating and shaking up the M&L series, it'll be great I'm sure. Disappointed that we won't get a full Paper Mario for probably a long time now, though.

Re: Double Dose Of Sin & Punishment Arrives On North American Wii U Virtual Console Tomorrow
I'll probably get them at some point, but I already have Gunstar Heroes on VC. I want to finish that Treasure game before I get another.

As a first timer should I try the NES DuckTales or Remastered?

Re: Mario History: Super Mario Bros. 3 - 1990
@Tempestryke I don't have one, so I'll go Wii U
Re: Review: Wind-up Knight 2 (Wii U eShop)
Looks pretty cool, like Runner2 except harder and without the rhythm component. Might be worth checking out.

Re: Video: This New Soul Axiom Trailer Sets the Scene

@Red_Blood_Crush so adolescent, just wow
Re: Rayman’s Creator Is Designing One Of The 60 Levels In Super Mario Maker
@Red_Blood_Crush Wow, you're really reading way too much into a simple picture, and being a douche yourself.
Re: Rayman’s Creator Is Designing One Of The 60 Levels In Super Mario Maker
@MadAdam81 No, Retro wasn't involved with any Metroid games other than the Prime trilogy.

Re: Xenoblade Chronicles X Wii U Bundle and Special Edition Confirmed for Europe, Wii Original on the eShop Now

Re: Nintendo President Satoru Iwata Passes Away Aged 55
Rest in peace Mr. Iwata. This is so sudden and sad, he died far too young. Nintendo has lost a great man. I hope you go directly to a good place.

Re: Review: Yoshi's Woolly World (Wii U)
most other review have been pretty negative, that's disappointing, oh well, still looking forward to it.
Re: Review: Yoshi's Woolly World (Wii U)
I'm in Canada so I don't get this yet, but I'm so pleased this got a good review, and that it has good difficulty. I'll be getting this come October!
