Did not like this game. It felt like the beginning of the whole "go to dungeon, beat dungeon, go to place use item guarded by dungeon boss to find next dungeon" crap.
Also, since developers have dev kits, I wonder how big the learning curve for the NX is...? Or basically, how easy or difficult is it to port games, or is it too early to tell?
I think this game was one of my first RPGs back in the day... Yes it was easy, but it was most DEFINITELY fun! I still have the tangible cartridge and the release on the Wii VC. Since I ported all of my old games to my Wii U, it's no biggie. Also, Small Spoiler for those who haven't played it, the Yoshi race is rigged too much against you for the fact that the timing is off because the game is on an emulated system. Kinda sucks...
That's awesome!! I'm glad you guys in the UK FINALLY get to play such drilltastic goodness! Although, the final boss fight is somewhat disappointing...
I'd say go for it. Yeah, it will be an influx of HD remasters, but at least the main crew will have their hands full with something new and awesome, that it won't be totally taken for granted. As for a Galaxy 1/2HD remake with the console, and it was done on the first Christmas it was released, Nintendo could've been printing money right now!
Really good to know, especially with the "New 3DS"(I call it 3DS Plus, because of added power) just came out and needs about a year and a half to be either truly obsolete or for Ninty to replace it with something HD.
Also, Konami should REALLY sell Bomberman to Nintendo, too! Or Ninty should make a really good knockoff of it. "Mario Blasters!!" using Bob-ombs! ...It'll make millions...
I couldn't stand 4 because you had to play it through multiple times and I felt that that was an insult to RPGs as a whole. I really liked 5 especially on the DS with better music and MegaMan talks! Plus, seeing it on the Wii U eShop would be awesome because MegaMan can be on the gamepad while you roam the real world on the big screen.
The only thing that's REMOTELY true is the system being manufactured at Foxconn, which manufactures 95% of ANY electronics used in the USA as well as worldwide. TBH, I really can't stand that company. Way too many things have been revealed about it that are nothing short of stomach-turning...

Sold! I just plunked 30 hours into Final Fantasy 7 over Turkey Day weekend(black Friday sale that crashed the Squeenix store servers), so by the time this gets released here, I will definitely get it!!
@rjejr Yeah, I saw that on gamedaily. I guess it's their way of "getting into the mobile scene" Crazy part is that Acti-Bliz bought King with offshore money and saved themselves a billion to boot.
inhales... no. Stages like those will make you burn away half your life trying to complete them, only to receive an inflated ego, and nothing tangible in return.
@brandonbwii Yeah, that's marketing for ya. It looked awesome and I loved the quick animation! I hope the 2017 release will capture some of that goodness...
This game REALLY gets the gears going! It makes me think back to my days doing Visual Basic at ITT Tech. It can be a true headscratcher if you're not careful. The music is somewhat generic techno, but it's not annoying. You almost have to think like a computer to help solve the computer logic that it throws at you. I recommend this game to anybody that's mathematically inclined.
@Mrclaycoat Here, here. Favorite ZOAT will always be A Link to the Past and it's sequel, A Link Between Worlds; which was a FIERCE breath of fresh air!
The Wii was also the ONLY console to have actual senior bowling tournaments! This is really awesome, guys. Now all of the heart-felt fan art is coming back to memory of when he passed... T_T
@shani Here's the thing that REALLY spoiled it for me on Skyward Sword, especially during the second playthrough. As a player, with a function brain(at times), I don't want to be told useless information that I already know! Plus, the entire game was nothing more than a glorified scavenger hunt. Seriously? Not my Zelda.
What if... They used the whole smartphone situation and brought back Game & Watch? That was STOOPID popular in it's day, and G&W is easily "pick-up and play"...
Extremely ambitious, but with a solid game plan as well as ACTUAL releases for it's dedicated consoles, it's very possible. Just as long as they don't start to REALLY lean on the smartphone market and leave us consolers in the dust.

Re: Review: Mega Man Battle Network 5: Team Colonel & Protoman (Wii U eShop / GBA)
Holding out for the DS "Double Team" version. Better music and it would play SUPER well with the gamepad!
Re: Nintendo Share Value Continues to Improve as Investor Confidence Grows
Good spike. Hope it continues to climb for what's in store for this year.
Re: Super Mario Maker Joins Elite List of Wii U Games to Pass One Million Sales in the US
I own all but New SMBU. I dunno, it's kinda hard to justify buying it when you have NSMB for the DS, the Wii, and Super Mario Maker...

So, basically... More speculation about the speculation that was speculated?

Re: Gallery: Have a Gawk at The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess HD's Boxart
@Turbo857 I wouldn't mind it. At least I could play it for more than 3 hours, GamePad! >_> Either way, options are ALWAYS nice for the consumer.
Re: Gallery: Have a Gawk at The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess HD's Boxart
@IceClimbers OHMAGAWD, YES YES, AND FREAKIN YESSSSSSSSSS!!!!! I lost my hard copy of the game so I'm DEFINITELY getting that one!!
Re: Gallery: Have a Gawk at The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess HD's Boxart
Just hoping for a facelift and some somewhat smoother textures... Upgraded music couldn't hurt either.
Re: Satoru Iwata to Receive Posthumous Lifetime Achievement Award at D.I.C.E.
Go Splatoon!! I love the loading drum solo when you first boot the game! I crank the stereo and jam to it, making my wife MAD!
Re: Junichi Masuda Turns 48 Today
Happy birthday and thank you for the jams, especially Gold and Silver!!

Also, I LOVE how they gave Hercule's voice to Rawk Hawk!

This episode... Right here!!! Makes me anticipate the more epic fights to come!!! Like Axem Rangers and the awesome Airship battle with Basillixx!!

Re: Sega Slashes Full-Year Net Profit Projection By 90 Percent
Sell Sonic 'n' 'nem to Nintendo!! By the by, didn't they hint at a crossover of some type.
The artwork is hideous, but very necessary.

Re: Tatsumi Kimishima Discusses His Focus on Nintendo's Future and Developing Talent
Would LOVE to see a decent console Mario RPG in the vein of Super Mario RPG. It can be for the NX and not the Wii U, just as long as it happens!
Re: Tatsumi Kimishima Discusses His Focus on Nintendo's Future and Developing Talent
@bitleman or Half-life, but sure. Why not?

Re: Art: If Nintendo Did Resurrect The Game Boy, We'd Want It To Look Like This
