Also, does Ash still have a bunch of babies for Pokémon like he did in the ones that were tied to Diamond and Pearl? I know it's an anime but still, it's REEEEEEALLY stretching the boundaries of what a maxed out Pikachu can do...
I hope they totally revamp the music instead of copy/pasting. I was really impressed with the Skyward Sword orchestral soundtrack. It was the ONLY thing that game had going for it!
Ehhhhh... It seems like they're trying to win back that "Casual Wii Crowd" that flocked to smartphones. I think it will be a success, but not a "hard-core gamer" success. Will it help sell more systems? Verrrrrrrrry iffy. I just hope that they (Nintendo) don't get so focused on the casual crowd(again) and forget about the hardcore gamers...(again). It's one thing to please the investors, and it's another thing to please the people who ACTUALLY BUY the system.
Dude, I bought this game on the e-shop yesterday, thinking "Cool, I can play it with my Wiimote!" WRONG!! I tried starting it with my Wiimote and it crashed! TWICE!! Seriously, Nintendo??! Is NOBODY testing software anymore??!
Well... I will hope for the best, but expect the worst. From the looks of it, the NX will be competing for the hardcore crowd, but with features that the twins don't have. Since the PS3 era, Nintendo's always been the "plus" system. Heck, even they said it themselves. I just hope that it comes out of the gate swinging. Nothing off-brand, no gimmicks. Just straight, authentic Nintendo.
I already preordered the physical copy of Mario Maker, so I will be getting the classic Mario theme. I already have Tecmo Bowl, but it's really fun without being stupidly overwhelming like Madden is. I bet they released that one because of the beginning of football season here...
This game is HARD! It's mainly for die-hard platformer players. The graphics are amazing, but not 60fps. It's also a switch puzzler like Mighty Switch Force.
Aww, I thought they were actually doing a Netflix Zelda... Oh, well. As far as a Mario movie. CGI and nothing else. And I would like to do it in the vein of Super Mario RPG. Loosely based, but still somewhat relevant. Besides. Nintendo still owes us an HD Mario RPG, anyway...

Re: Pokémon Hoopa Distribution Confirmed for McDonald's in the US, XY & Z Anime Opening Emerges
@TheLobster Don't worry. I'll do the same thing. McDonald's is bile in this country...

Re: Nintendo Download: 29th October (North America)
@Stuffgamer1 OMG Drill Dozer was AWESOME!!! Dang, it feels like they're trying to appease their investors more than the gamers themselves...

Re: Octodad: Dadliest Catch Gets A Revised Release Date
Hmmmm.... I might get the PC one first... I saw on the site that it had "slapstick" in it and I am a SUCKER for slapstick!
Re: Review: Slender: The Arrival (Wii U eShop)
@spurgeonryan Fiiiiiiine... But once I have the opportunity to use the Wiimote, IT'S ON!
Re: Review: Slender: The Arrival (Wii U eShop)
@BlatantlyHeroic Yeah, I'm still using mine because I was hesitant to play Galaxy 2 and right now, I'm 58 stars into the game.

My New 3DS is so stable, it could help the Middle East!
Re: NES Designer Explains the History of the Console's Release in North America
I remember calling them "tapes" instead of cartridges... Oh, and blowing in them which is not recommended, but temporarily effective...

Nevermind the blacklist, what about the lag?! I was finally on a winning team when the connection to the server crapped out on me!
Re: Talking Point: The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess HD Would be No Surprise, as Nostalgia Rules for Nintendo
Crazy thought... What if TP:HD was done in Unreal 4...? I would LOVE to see how Wolf-Link looks!

@XCWarrior Ha! Yeah... Imagine trying to get royalties on grunts and yells! That's funny stuff right there!

@XCWarrior Wait, who voices Link now?
Re: Voice Actors Union Authorises Strike Action With Landslide 96.52 Percent Vote
Woah, Tara Strong is in on this??! This must be pretty major for a TRULY mainstream VO to be in on this!
Re: The YouTube Wii U App Has Another Update
@Shy_Guy Ditto. Or I could use my laptop that's wired to my 50-inch flat screen. Depends on how much patience I have for loading...
Re: The Puzzle & Dragons: Super Mario Bros. Edition International Tournament is Now Open in North America
As a puzzler myself, I ask...
Why this, and not Tetris Attack?
Re: Splatoon 'Octoling' Modder Could Cause Save Data Problems
@Mk_II I'd like to know that, too... And hopefully Ninty's paying attention...
Re: Splatoon 'Octoling' Modder Could Cause Save Data Problems
See, this is why backing up saves to a cloud make more sense. At least then, it would be more difficult to destroy the data...

@Windy I cry a tear for Bomberman weekly, and do a 2-hits to the chest followed by a peace sign for Master Higgins.

Re: Nintendo Download: 10th September (North America)

Re: Some Western Splatoon Players Would Prefer Not To Compete With Japan
No, no. no. Keep it level. There's not too many Splatoon owners in the US, anyway, so I don't feel bad when I'm the only American in the match..
Re: Review: Super Mario Maker (Wii U)
Even more sold than I was. Getting the collectors edition if I can anyone who still has preorders...
