DEFINITELY summer 2016. There's no way Nintendo is going to drag the WiiU's lifespan out by another year. I mean, they are already scraping the bottom of the barrel with the (awful, unoriginal) WiiU games introduced in this years E3!!! The WiiU is done, lets just face it... so 2017 is too far away for the NX release
holiday 2016 is most likely going to be the release date. I just hope it's going to be a console on par with X1/PS4. I don't expect Nintendo to make a console that's more powerfull than either of them (becauce...hey, it's Nintendo...), but i hope it's not going to be a cheap 150 dollars WiiU clone...
@Tao Really? Gameboy released in june '89 Nes in august '91 Virtual Boy in august '95 N64 in august '96 GBA in june '01 ... ... It seems highly possible to me.
It sucks for the developers, but Nintendo knew darn well that people have been begging for a 'real' Metroid game for many years. So, how can they be suprised about the negative reactions they've been getting.
Sure, it might be a fun game, but it's not what the fans want. And no matter how good it will turn out to be, it'll never be the game people have been asking for. It would be so easy to make a Metroid game that the fans would love!!! Nintendo really should know better... but then again, it's Nintendo... they rarely care about what their fans want.
@Priceless_Spork You can actually play as the fun happy 60's good-guy Batman... in an evil dark mean brooding violent way !!! with the free Batman '66-skin DLC pack on PS4 !!!
@NintendoFan64
I don't think it would make the video's any funnier if you did :s
@Ryu_Niiyama
Well... i'm sure you must be a huuuuuuuge fan of this series if you're willing to pay that much on a limited edition of a 3ds game...or any game for that matter!
@ShikabaneHime13 No reason to get mad, I'm sure you've played the games, and are all caught up in the hype... i haven't and don't have the slightest interest in playing them. At first glance it's nothing more than another pokemon -style game, and that is how people are going to react as well. Even you have to agree it borrows mechanics/ideas from pokemon, and i really don't see this becoming a hit over here.
Not for me i guess, this is just too much of a pokemon-clone for me... it's too Japanese for my taste. I really don't see this series becoming even a modest hit in the rest of the world. I don't think anybody wants another pokemon-clone, we had so many over the years and i think that hype has passed. I'm sure it will do great in Japan, but that's about it.
'There's not a lot of five to seven year-olds walking around with smartphones. Even in the tablet space, mom and dad might hand over their tablet for short periods of time.'
My six year old daughter has her own smartphone. She knows how to use one better than me! Half of her classmates have one too!!!
Oh, and Reggie... you're a tool!
Next weeks number one (Batman, duh) will (glide)kick Splatoon out of the top 10... !!! I can't wait till midnight so i can finally play the game... so excited!!
But Splatoon did hold it's top 10 position longer than anyone thought it would anyway!
I don't know so please tell me... Is Samurai Warriors worth the full 105 euro??? With that price tag it has to be the best 3DS game ever, right?
Is there anyone actually purchasing all the day 1 DLC, i wonder...
@Cyberbotv2 No, it's pretty much a stand alone game, from what i understand. I'm sure there'll be some minor easter eggs included for the fans of the series, like the other games did.
Just give me Fatal Frame, you can keep all the other games !!!!
Oh, and Nintendo, make yourself useful for once and release the other Fatal Frame games on the WiiU !!!
Sure, put it on X1 and/or PS4... i'll gladly play this game again. But please put some work into it, and don't simply port it over, Ubisoft! (Upres, 60fps and remove the countless bugs)
Yep,... Amiibo... well... huh...
I'm sorry, but haven't we talked about this before? ...like a lot...?
No one has anything to say that they haven't said a million times before. The people against, are still against it... and the people defending the amiibo situation are still defending it. Nothing changed, so there is really no reason to post this kind of article yet again.
Yesterday i played through all of these Nindies, and boy are they a mixed bag!
My favorite (by far!) is Freedom Planet! It's basically the Sonic The Hedgehog game all the fans been asking for like forever!!! It really is that good!
Lovely Planet, on the other hand,... Urgh, the less said about that the better! :s
Mutant Mudds is my second favorite, i loved the first 3DS-game, and i love how they amped up the difficulty even more! It's innovative in concept and gameplay. And a must buy for me for sure.
Typoman and forma.8, ...not sure how to feel about those. They play fine, but it's nothing i haven't played before in other (and better) games. They're not doing anything for me. (They're just not for me, i guess.)
@Tsuchinoko There actually is a land called Ca-na-dah?!? I thought that place was the setting for a next Tomb Raider or Uncharted game! Huh, i learn something new everyday on this site!
I got it for free on PS4 a month or 2 ago (PS Plus). It is very interesting, especially the documentary bits with the native Enuit tribes. The game itself didn't hold my interest till the end, so i never finished it.
But it is definitely worth a look.

Re: Weirdness: In Some Parallel Dimension, This Nintendo Cross Presentation Might Actually Be Real
'WiiU GamePad available seperately' Yeah, like THAT will happen after all this time!
Re: Weirdness: In Some Parallel Dimension, This Nintendo Cross Presentation Might Actually Be Real
@CamWFC91 If Nintendo came up with technology to do THAT (not having to push any buttons anymore), it would be revolutionary!!!
Re: Weirdness: In Some Parallel Dimension, This Nintendo Cross Presentation Might Actually Be Real
@CamWFC91 lol, i know right!!!
Re: Weirdness: In Some Parallel Dimension, This Nintendo Cross Presentation Might Actually Be Real
I also like how no one in the video pushes any buttons on the controllers and tablets, but the characters clearly move by theirselfs
Re: Weirdness: In Some Parallel Dimension, This Nintendo Cross Presentation Might Actually Be Real
Oh lol, a 'proper' account- and reward system announced!!!

Re: Yoshi's Woolly World Cuddles Up to Fourth Spot in the UK Charts
yeah Batman!!! Such a great game (even though i have some issues with the reveal/ending). Everybody should buy it, but i guess everyone already did !
Number 4 is okay for a Yoshi game... i guess... not really a suprise there.

Re: Feature: The Biggest Wii U Retail Games of 2015 - Summer Edition
@dok5555555 Whatever the reason, you now have even more time to play awesome games like Devil's third and (dare i say it again? ) FATAL FRAME!!!!
Re: Feature: The Biggest Wii U Retail Games of 2015 - Summer Edition
@Cyberbotv2 No, it's pretty much a stand alone game, from what i understand. I'm sure there'll be some minor easter eggs included for the fans of the series, like the other games did.
Re: Feature: The Biggest Wii U Retail Games of 2015 - Summer Edition
Wow, almost no love for Fatal Frame... what's wrong with gamers these days...

Re: Feature: Our Impressions of the Full Nindies@Home Line-Up
Yesterday i played through all of these Nindies, and boy are they a mixed bag!
My favorite (by far!) is Freedom Planet! It's basically the Sonic The Hedgehog game all the fans been asking for like forever!!! It really is that good!
Lovely Planet, on the other hand,... Urgh, the less said about that the better! :s
Mutant Mudds is my second favorite, i loved the first 3DS-game, and i love how they amped up the difficulty even more! It's innovative in concept and gameplay. And a must buy for me for sure.

Re: Never Alone Will Start Keeping North Americans Company on 25th June
I got it for free on PS4 a month or 2 ago (PS Plus). It is very interesting, especially the documentary bits with the native Enuit tribes. The game itself didn't hold my interest till the end, so i never finished it.
But it is definitely worth a look.
Re: Feature: Five Key Moments from Nintendo's E3
