I have to say, the reply you received from Nintendo is impressive. I would encourage others to kindly make known their VC requests to Nintendo, for both Wii U and 3DS. GBA on 3DS is my request. I'd like to see it more robust, too. Like itunes.
I'm just wondering if anybody has any idea of a ballpark date Harvest Moon GBC will be released. This has been on my radar since I got the 3DS. Maybe it's a super duper awesome edition.
Because it's a hot button issue that isn't yet pocketed like skin color. Because one person thinks they know what's right, doesn't make it the standard everyone has to accept.
And done, don't want to make TBD start shooting angry dragon flames.
The problem is, if it was intended in the first place, it should be something made known before release. Like it or not, people have different opinions on the matter, and should be given the ability to make an informed decision on the purchase. Don't know exactly what they'll do now.
After looking around the interwebs, the whole same sex thing looks like a glitch altogether, and not intended. If this holds true, can't be angry with Nintendo for fixing glitches I would hope.
I think the risk in this approach is, can they end an episode leaving you wanting more. Walking Dead did that. With others I tried, I didn't go beyond the first.
I generally play with mine plugged in at home anyway. On the go, I'll generally have something like 100 classic Books in there, which eats less battery.
Disney will do fine. Bad Star Wars games will sell ok, but with the movies and endless runs of toys, action figures, and who knows what all merchandise..., the SW fans are loyal to the end. And there's a lot of them. Marvel will probably be their rainy day money in comparison.
Capcom is weird. I buy Dragon's Dogma, now they re-release it as Dark Arisen with a huge expansion pack, but don't sell the expansion pack individually.
Because Nintendo always seems to be sitting at the kiddie table away from the big boys. That's the outsider look at it. Nintendo seems to make goofs at every turn it seems lately. Yet looking at numbers, the Wii turned out pretty rosey despite it's behind the times tech.
A stronger, more consumer friendly VC strategy would be more eye catching for starters, but despite that, once N's meat n potato titles start falling in, I suspect they'll be fine, as usual. The Wii overcame a lot of odds. The WiiU can too.
No, not at all. Just mean 'next gen' in general, with more and more detailed realism, visual glitches will look even goofier. Just a side comment, really. I will be a PS4 owner somewhere down the line.

It's too bad they seem to be putting more effort into these indie gambles than the Virtual Console.

Give us Persona 4 instead. Uncharted will work to. Join forces.

Re: Talking Point: DLC's Increasingly Important Role for Nintendo
Red Dead Redemption is an excellent example of DLC, or expansion pack, 'Undead Nightmare'. So worth it, and pretty much like a mini-sequel.
I'd like to see more of that kind of thing.

Oh, strategy RPG. Then I think I'm sold.

Good question, Midnight3DS.
Nobody knows or cares. It looks cool!

Gotta add that to my repertoire.
Re: Tomodachi Collection: New Life Features Same-Sex Marriage For Men, But Not Women
It sounds like the same sex thing is the 'bug', unless this feature was ballyhooed in release hype.
Re: Activison Anticipating Rough End To 2013, Wii U Partly Responsible
Wii U is wrecking the entire economy infrastructure.

Re: Nintendo Has A Sense Of Humour About Poor 3DS Battery Life
Xbox - 'Hahaha! Look at that lovely ring of red.'
Sony - 'Hahaha! Hope you don't mind that we shared your account info Hahaha!'
Re: Shadow of the Eternals Will Cost $5 Per Episode, Contains Art Assets Purchased From Silicon Knights
Well, Walking Dead was awesome episodic content. As a general practice, I normally would avoid.

Re: Just Cause Dev Thinks Wii U Is "Cool" But Has No Immediate Plans To Support It
Well, if EA feels Wii U doesn't have long term potential, like them or not, it is a concern.
Re: Just Cause Dev Thinks Wii U Is "Cool" But Has No Immediate Plans To Support It
Well, EA says flat out they've eliminated expenses "by ignoring platforms they don’t think have a long-term potential" (insert Nintendo).
"Unprecedented relationship" LOL. Goodbye EA.
All this piling up, I hope Nintendo steals the show somehow at E3. They really need to bring a whopper.
Re: Just Cause Dev Thinks Wii U Is "Cool" But Has No Immediate Plans To Support It
Just Cause is good open world merc fun. Nintendo is a strange bird.

Re: Capcom Not Turning Its Back On Home Console Development

Goofballs.
Re: Wii U Owners Shunned Again As Warner Refuses To Reveal Injustice DLC Release Date
DLC is a plague we probably never should have stood for to begin with. Expansion packs, baby!
Re: Wii U Owners Shunned Again As Warner Refuses To Reveal Injustice DLC Release Date
@Neram
Because Nintendo always seems to be sitting at the kiddie table away from the big boys. That's the outsider look at it. Nintendo seems to make goofs at every turn it seems lately. Yet looking at numbers, the Wii turned out pretty rosey despite it's behind the times tech.
A stronger, more consumer friendly VC strategy would be more eye catching for starters, but despite that, once N's meat n potato titles start falling in, I suspect they'll be fine, as usual. The Wii overcame a lot of odds. The WiiU can too.

Those games look like bad quality GIFs. Is that the best Wii U can do?!? Obviously can't handle DICE DICE, baby!

Under the WB umbrella, and it's way too powerful and awesome for Wii U. You can download Mario Fishing, or something instead.
Re: Wii U Owners Shunned Again As Warner Refuses To Reveal Injustice DLC Release Date
Arkham Origins will be cancelled for the Wii U.
Re: DICE Tested Its Frostbite Engine On Wii U, Wasn't Enamoured With The Results
The test will be if there is a 3DS game. There is no excuse there.
Re: The Force Is Strong In EA's New Star Wars Publishing Agreement
@SilentHunter382
I can say there were day one DLC files on the Mass Effect 3 disc. How sleazy that is, I don't know. Capcom has been accused of the same.
Re: Wii U Owners Shunned Again As Warner Refuses To Reveal Injustice DLC Release Date
Then there are those that bought it for Wii U, knowing how awesome Lobo is, checking for updates daily.
Though as a PS3 owner, the Skyrim DLC fiasco was about as bad as it gets.
Re: Wii U Owners Shunned Again As Warner Refuses To Reveal Injustice DLC Release Date
Another doo doo sandwich for poor Wii U owners.
