Re: The N64 and Nintendo’s Fall From Grace

Great system. I remember buying mine way back in March 2000 at Walmart. Seeing Super Mario 64, Zelda: Ocarina of Time, and Castlevania LOD in 3D was awesome since I grew up playing those 3 series on the NES.

Re: Original Gameboy turns 20 years old!

Happy Birthday GameBoy. I've had mine since the late 80's, still works as well. I wouldn't mind a backstory about the GameBoy at the top of the page that survived the Cold War.

Re: Welcome to the New Look Nintendo Life!

I wish they didn't change the site to nintendolife. The redesign is nice but now I can't go on vc-reviews anymore at work because the name nintendo is in the sites name. All the other sites like gamefaqs and ign are banned, but vc-reviews was so obscure that it never was banned.

"I predict that the PAL region will get Majora's Mask already this month or next (depending on when Hanabi Festival is) while North America gets Super Smash Bros instead and thus have to wait until the summer to finally get the game."

I'm fine with that since I already own Majora's Mask, but don't have SSB.

"Remember when Grandma used to mark your height on the wall every so often, just to see how fast you were growing? Well, if the Wii™ Shop Channel had its own growth chart, she'd be impressed at how the selection of great games keeps getting bigger and bigger each week. "

The person who writes these stupid press releases every week, is the biggest waste of money of Nintendo's payroll. Gradius seems to be a pretty decent WiiWare game, but Alex Kidd seems like a pile of garbage.

Re: Wisconsin To Tax Digital Downloads

What else is new, our government is always looking for a way to grab free money. Just like how the state of Connecticut has expanded the retarded bottle bill to include water bottles now. Either way, when you want to play, you have to pay.

Re: USA VC Update: Commodore 64 Launches With Three Games

@127. firebrand
Yeah I know about not many games coming because of license issues. I want Super Smash Bros., Mario Party 2 & 3, and Mario Tennis. The other big games like DK 64, Banjo-Kazooie, Banjo-Tooie, Conker's Bad Fur Day, and the Castlevania games I already own so no big deal if they don't come. Those other 4 games though I used to own, but sadly when I got my Gamecube in 2001, I was spoiled by the pretty graphics and sold a lot of my N64 games because I thought the graphics sucked. I kick myself everyday because of that. Luckily, 3 games that I used to own have already been released (Mario Kart 64, Yoshi's Story, and Mario Golf), but I want SSB very badly.

Re: USA VC Update: Sonic Chaos

The game is alright, but still a pretty crappy update in all. Another 1 game week. Japan gets 10 games a month, we get 4. How does that make sense?

Re: Top 20 WiiWare Games in USA (28th Jan)

I have no interest in World of Goo, which is why I haven't bought it. Dr. Mario and Mega Man 9 are the only WiiWare games I own. Icarian looks interesting though. When does it come out?

@23. Quimby
Oh no, don't get me wrong, 1 game weeks are horrible and Nintendo should be totally embarrased for them. It's just I'm happy (for now) that Kirby's Dream Land 3 and Castlevania 3 came out.

Re: USA VC Update: MUSHA

Mike1

Not for me, but I'm happy after getting Kirby's Dream Land 3 and Castlevania 3 the last 2 weeks. Besides, rather than wait for Nintendo to release them, I just decided to hook up my N64 to play some of the classics from that system, like Banjo-Kazooie, Banjo-Tooie, Conker's Bad Fur Day, Donkey Kong 64, and Castlevania: Legacy of Darkness. I like playing N64 games with a Gamecube controller better, but it may take Nintendo years to release those games, if they even come at all.

Many people feel that way as well about Mega Man 9 being the best game. The only people that say they hate Mega Man 9 are soccer moms and wimps who can't handle the difficulty.
