The iPad is too big to carry around. I have an iPod touch and while some of the Apps are fun, they kill the battery too fast. I'll stick with my DS and PSP for handheld fun.
@7. StarBoy91 I know Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles was changed to Teenage Mutant Hero Turtles in Europe because they wanted to take the word Ninja out of the title which they considered to be bad or something and make it Hero because that would be more kid friendly.
Sucks that we get no VC again! Oh well, I just got Super Mario Galaxy 2 and I still need to finish The Legend of Zelda: Spirit Tracks, so I have other stuff to play.
Hard to believe it took 3 1/2 years for the U.S. to get a black Wii. I'm fine with my original white one, I could care less about the color. In fact, white is always less dusty.
Another stupid Sony exec has to cut down Nintendo. It's not like they have anything else to do, they're not selling product, so they might as well talk trash about the system that is kicking their butts.
I can't wait to play Mega Man 10! And remember folks; MM10 has an easy mode, so everyone should give it a shot. I beat MM9, so I'm thinking MM10 should be no problem.
Every Sony executive simply shouldn't open their mouths because everytime they do nothing but garbage comes out. Jack Trentton, Rob, Kizai (spelling?); they are all idiots. The end result is the Wii is beating them in the system sales and making the most money.
Who cares? I love how in the King of Kong they made Billy Mitchell seem like this evil incarnation and that Steve Wiebe was this hero. Give me a break.
Well I have owned Donkey Kong 64 for 10 years, so i can play Donkey Kong on there. However, I never played the arcade version of DK Jr. A few of you guys made a comment about Nintendo not wanting to release more than one version of a game. Hello, what about Street Fighter? Or Wonder Boy 3? If that's Nintendo's excuse, then stop giving us several versions of those games.
Mega Man 8 is probably my least favorite Mega Man followed by MM6, but all of the games are fantastic eitehr way. I always thought that MM5 was better than MM4, but that's only my opinion.
Don't get too excited folks, I just read on Gamefaqs that a recent gonintendo article said that the game will not be in English but Japanese. At least I still got the PSP version.
Not much this week, but doesn't really matter to me. I just ordered a bunch of games from Amazon for the GBA and DS, so I'll have plenty to play within a few days.
I hope it is like the old Sonic games on the Genesis. Maybe it will be developed for WiiWare? Sonic and the Secret Rings was decent, but Unleashed and Black Knight were not that great at all. Unleashed was good during the daytime stages but the Werehog stages were terrible and actually very very boring.

Can't wait. Kirby, Zelda, and Donkey Kong. Best E3 in a long time.
Re: E3 2010: Donkey Kong Country Returns This Fall
Fantastic. I can't wait to play this.
Re: E3 2010: Kirby's Epic Yarn
This game looks fantastic, and really fun as well. Then again, all Kirby games are fun.
Re: Nintendo Download: 7th June 2010 (North America)
No VC again...big surprise!
Re: Feature: The Making of Jet Force Gemini - Part Two
I had this, but never enjoyed it. Kinda boring in my opinion.

The only game I own on my iPod touch are The Simpsons and Solitare. The games kill the battery too quickly, even more so than videos.

Re: Nintendo Download: 31st May 2010 (North America)
Nothing for me as usual. I wish the TMNT games would come out. Stupid license issues!
Re: Dennis Hopper Passes Away
RIP Dennis! My favorite role he played was as Victor Drazen in the first season of 24.
Re: Mario Jumps Over Flag, Ends Arguments Forever
I never did it, but the video was cool to watch.

Re: Nintendo is Clearly Not in Greenpeace's Good Books
As I said the last time, who cares about Greenpeace, or what they say.

Re: Lords of Shadow to Feature Classic Nintendo Castlevania Music
@8. darklinkinfinite
I agree the N64 Castlevania games were great. I also enjoyed the PS2 games as well.
Re: Nintendo Brings Black Wii to North America on May 9th
Hard to believe it took 3 1/2 years for the U.S. to get a black Wii. I'm fine with my original white one, I could care less about the color. In fact, white is always less dusty.
Re: Nintendo Download: 29th March 2010 (North America)
Nothing for me this week, but it's nice to see another N64 game.

Re: Feature: The Making of the Nintendo Game Boy
Ah, the memories from my childhood...
Re: Donkey Kong World Record Smashed
I guess Billy Mitchell has to get back to work now.
Re: Review: Mega Man 10 (WiiWare)
Great game, I beat it last night. Can't wait for the download content to come out.
Re: Nintendo Download 1st March 2010 (North America)

Re: Australia Gets Black Wii & New Remote Colours
@4. Gavin Rozee
Why the hell would you do that? Sounds like a big waste of time.
Re: WiiWare Market Grows to Nearly $60M USD in 2009
If Nintendo wants to amke more money with the VC, then here's an idea; RELEASE MORE GAMES PER WEEK!!!
Re: Nintendo Cereal System Sells For $200
I remember that cereal. It actually tasted pretty good. Ahh, the memories.
Re: Nintendo Download: 22nd February 2010 (North America)
Mega Man 4 would have been a great tie in since Mega Man 10 is coming out next week.
Re: XBLA Perfect Dark Getting GoldenEye Maps and Weapons
@43. Super Smash Bros. Fan1999
Diddy Kong Racing and Donkey Kong 64 would never go on Xbox Live because Nintendo owns the rights to those characters.
Re: Castlevania: The Adventure is Reborn in Europe Next Week
The only Metroidvania Castlevania game I liked was SOTN. The others I never enjoyed.
Re: XBLA Perfect Dark Getting GoldenEye Maps and Weapons
Does matter to me, I never really cared for Goldeneye.

Re: Talking Point: Does Nintendo Need to Exercise More Quality Control on the Wii?
If a game sucks, then don't buy it. Plain and simple.
Re: Review: Sonic & Knuckles (Virtual Console / Sega Mega Drive)
This game always seemed a lot harder than Sonic 1-3.
Re: Nintendo Download 15th February 2010 (North America)
Good update. Only 2 weeks until Mega Man 10!
Re: Super Mario Bros. 3 Turns Twenty
Happy Birthday SMB3!!! The best 2D game ever made.
Re: Mega Man 10 Coming March 1st
@25. Ezekiel
It's said to have an easy mode. I can't wait for this game!!!
Re: Miyamoto Hints Towards Next Console
Screw HD, I would rather have Nintendo keep supporting the Wii.
Re: Nintendo Download: 8th February 2010 (North America)
Nothing again this week, but MM10 is right around the corner.
Re: Talking Point: Nintendo Arcade Games on Virtual Console?

Re: Review: Yume Koujou Doki Doki Panic (NES)
I would love for this to come out on the VC
Re: Sonic the Hedgehog 4: Episode 1 Coming to Wii
Great news, but Episode 1? Just give us the full game all at once.
Re: Nintendo Download: 1st February 2010 (North America)
Boring update...
Re: Japanese Virtual Console list - February 2010
Mega Man 8 is probably my least favorite Mega Man followed by MM6, but all of the games are fantastic eitehr way. I always thought that MM5 was better than MM4, but that's only my opinion.
Re: Castlevania: Rondo of Blood ESRB Rated
Don't get too excited folks, I just read on Gamefaqs that a recent gonintendo article said that the game will not be in English but Japanese. At least I still got the PSP version.
Re: Castlevania: Rondo of Blood ESRB Rated
I can already play Rondo on the PSP. Now Castlevania Bloodlines however is another story...
Re: Nintendo Download: 25th January 2010 (North America)
Not much this week, but doesn't really matter to me. I just ordered a bunch of games from Amazon for the GBA and DS, so I'll have plenty to play within a few days.
Re: Luigi's Mansion to Get Sequel?
I hope it's a sequel and not that NPC crap.
Re: Nintendo Download: 18th January 2010 (North America)
Nothing for me...
Re: Project Needlemouse to Focus Solely on Sonic?
I hope it is like the old Sonic games on the Genesis. Maybe it will be developed for WiiWare? Sonic and the Secret Rings was decent, but Unleashed and Black Knight were not that great at all. Unleashed was good during the daytime stages but the Werehog stages were terrible and actually very very boring.
Re: Mega Man 10 Robot Masters Unveiled
I can't wait for this game!
Re: Nintendo Doubly Outsold Everything Else Combined In US Last Month
Where are all of the Sony execs talking trash about the Wii now?
