I feel like the Wii U will become a cult favorite system years from now like the GameCube. It has some great features but the games are what made me buy the system.

Awesome! He's one of my favorite Pokemon. I hope he comes over to the Wii U version.

@Nintendian I haven't played Zero yet but I played the demo and now I'm wanting it for Christmas alongside some other games.

It's just that people tend to throw around the word "gimmick" very haphazardly without ever really thinking about what the word actually means so other people can hate something they haven't even played yet (I know the Wii U sold horribly and had awful marketing) but I like that system for a good amount of reasons like a nice collection of quality games I own, eShop, Miiverse and online/multiplayer being free.

I don't expect everyone to like a system but I want them to at least give it a genuine try first before they judge.

@JaxonH You got that right. Heck, playing video games on a PC, handheld or console is in fact a "gimmick" (i.e. a feature that is meant to give a product attention for people to consider buying).

People throw around "gimmick" like it's apparently the ultimate sin and should apparently just be "normal" like using buttons on a controller (also, buttons on controllers are technically "gimmicks" that give a gaming system attention to customers who are interested in the thing which obviously isn't a bad thing) and people who say it isn't are hypocrites.

It's such a lazy criticism and it should be pointed out that most features that are considered standard on PCs, consoles and handhelds are actually good "gimmicks" that can benefit the system more and allow for a better experience.

While I do love those second screen features on the Wii U, I'm not that heartbroken over it because I've been also been playing my single screen fun since my first console, the PS1.

Hopefully, the console will provide plenty of fun games to play.

It's very touching to me.

I honestly could see this coming a kilometer away. Good thing I actually own a NEW 3DS XL and Wii U. That said, I really want the system now that I've seen footage of what it looks like.

I'm digging the soundtrack, the game looks pretty and has a nice sense of humor. I can't wait to get the game.

@outsider83 It wasn't a BLIND BOY. It was a girl with cancer who's eyesight got worse during that viewing of Up and she didn't have long to live. Also, Pixar never told this story to the presses to promote the film. They remained humble about it. If you're going to be cynical, don't be an idiot and completely neglect research for your own selfish reasons.

The fact you were completely inaccurate proves it's pretty clear you don't "know" anything about the context about why the guys at Pixar did that. Also, people are commenting positively because we care about other human beings and not just what the Nintendo staff did.

That was very nice of the guys working at Nintendo. My condolences to the his family.

2018? sigh
Well, here's hoping it leads to a better game.

I will give Nintendo this. This concept is far better suited to mobile gaming than lazily porting a console game to mobile phones. It's like people just miss the point about what makes those games fun and playable and I don't understand anyone who uses this logic.

Sticking a touch controller isn't going to make the console-to-mobile port "better". The controls become intrusive and get in the way of playing. Not to mention being inaccurate most of the time.

I'll give Color Splash a chance when it comes out. I like what I've seen so far so I hope I like the overall game.

I know I hate the Wii U version (still keeping it). I so want this too!
So many cool things like the Poochie amiibo/mode and cool yarn cartoons. I want this.

I've been meaning to play it. I just need a motion plus controller.

I love the amiibo figures they've made. These...will so be in my collection.

I definitely want to go and buy this game when it comes out. Hopefully, it will be fun to me and that's all I could ask for.

@HappyMaskedGuy Admittedly, the original series may not have aged well but they still are a part of Australian culture and at the time, they were at their peak so it does make sense for them to appear.

This reminds me of the time the Bananas in Pajamas made it to the Sydney Olympics in 2000 at the ending ceremony parade. I was 5 when I got to go with my grandma and sister and be in the audience and experience the Olympics in person.

Like Mario, they hit the public consciousness as iconic figures in entertainment. What a show!

This game will definitely be on my Christmas list!

Two great things in one.
This should mean that the movie will be made with care.

Nothing like some good ol' fashioned toilet humor from the original Rareware developers to really get me laughing.

Also, I think this game's looking better with each trailer. Can't wait to play it!

I saw this coming a kilometer away. Sad though that others now can't download it.

My sympathies go out to his family...

I downloaded it but I will buy any Metroid games in the future.

Popplio looks so badass here. I also like the new Pokemon. I want the game.

Why the hell do "games" like this make it onto the eShop but MOTHER 3 can't? This is so unfair...

@ProfessorToad I don't believe in objectivity in opinions (like reviews) even though I've enjoyed the Mario games I played. Our likes and dislikes are subjective. People just follow what they feel is their honest thoughts.

@CrimSkies97 I want Spyro to make a comeback so BAAAAAD...

@ProfessorToad You do realize you're on a Nintendo News site talking smack about Mario, right? I like Crash, Spyro and the Mario series. Though that said, I think Mario himself is kind of a boring character.

@Action51 Sony didn't even make Crash. That was Naughty Dog. Sony only published his games. Actually, out of all the mascots of the '90s, Crash is still fondly remembered by plenty of fans who grew up with his games and still like them. There's a reason why there was a large demand for his comeback.

I want a SNES mini with Earthbound as one of the games.

NSPCC has some reasonable logic, The Mirror sounds sensible and the Daily Mail is just awful.

Oh, now you're just trying to annoy us. You should be above this click bait garbage promoting a liar.

I hope it does well.

Not that this completely relates to Devil's Third but I think it's important. This is why I don't buy online-only games as they inevitably become unplayable once the servers are shut down and thus become utterly worthless.

At least with games like Splatoon, they have local offline multiplayer and a single player campaign. Those types of games are made with long term thought put into it.

I'll wait up on it and see what happens.

@Seacliff It's fine to not like either but I honestly cannot stand the Titans design. I thought it went against what Naughty Dog thought when they created the character and what I liked about him.

@Seacliff
Honestly, I think this design is preferable to the Titans design.

Alright, say what you will about Skylanders but the design to me feels like the Crash I grew up with. Also, we're getting remastered versions of the original trilogy on the PS4 so I won't complain too much.

@King_Johobo Me too...

Finally! Some Aussie representation and a cute puppy! I'm SOLD!

Looks cool. Can't wait to see the final game.

Honestly, I don't mind the delay. They want to give us a better game and that's awesome!

I'm so jealous of these guys. Also, Japan sounds amazing.

I've been wanting Bowser Jr. and Diddy Kong for while now. Hopefully, that may happen.

This is cute and all and I want it but what about the Koopalings?

I need to play this!

They have some of my favorite starters here. Poor Chespin and Charmander.

@Lizuka That is true. I hope they make it in.
