Didn't Zelda win that award last year? Pokémon GO was a no brainer for those awards. Not picking a winner for best fan game is really dumb, especially considering all of the good fan games this year.
I think this is a good director pick, but I can't help but think that detective pikachu is a bad fit for a movie. Maybe it's a test run for a full Pokémon movie and Nintendo wants to make sure that studios can handle a spinoff.
I'm not planning on getting one until Christmas but this is ridiculous. Nintendo is one of the biggest video game companies in the world yet they are so far behind their rivals when it comes to shipping (almost like they are behind their rivals in tech). They can't blame this on a worker strike this time, and if this is self produced in order to create scarcity (like Amiibos were) then they deserve the bad sales this thing will get.
I'm definitely getting this. Big DQ fan and Fragments of the Forgotten Past is great. DQ 7 did well, and if this does too then we could be getting way more DQ games in the future.
Everything in that trailer was so cool! Also I'm getting Litten, I like it's final evolution more than the others (but the other two don't look bad). This game is gonna be something special.

Re: Rumour: GameCube Virtual Console Is Coming To The Nintendo Switch, Early Games Outlined
All 4 of those games would be great additions. Imagine Melee or Super Mario Sunshine on the go!
Re: Rumour: Nintendo Switch Dock Helps Boost Performance, But Not in the Way You Think
So what's in the dock? Memory?
Re: Capcom Reaffirms Commitment To Resurrecting Its Vast Catalogue Of "Dormant IP"
What's the point in having IPs and not making games with them? If you have IPs then you might as well use them.
Re: Eiji Aonuma and Satoru Takizawa on the Fate of Wind Waker 2
I could see toon link on a horse, just make it a small one. I think some of the ideas ended up in phantom hourglass (technically WW 2).
Re: Goodbye! BOXBOY! Has Been Announced for Nintendo 3DS
I was hoping that this would get a physical release, and if it comes to NA I will buy it.
Re: Poll: The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild - Share Your Thoughts on the Latest Footage
I don't know which version I will get. I want to experience the best version, but I might not get a Switch in 2017 if it doesn't have games.

Re: Empoleon is Coming to the Arcade Version of Pokkén Tournament
If they priced these bonus characters like Smash dlc then I would buy it!
Re: Meloetta is Now Being Distributed to the Gen 6 Pokémon Games
I'll definitely be picking this up. It's a shame this has to end, but at least it was fun (and the 25th anniversary isn't too far away).
Re: Reggie Confirmed For On-Stage Appearance At The Game Awards 2016
Maybe a live Zelda demo?
Re: The Man Behind Goosebumps And Monsters Vs. Aliens Is Directing The Detective Pikachu Movie
I think this is a good director pick, but I can't help but think that detective pikachu is a bad fit for a movie. Maybe it's a test run for a full Pokémon movie and Nintendo wants to make sure that studios can handle a spinoff.
Re: Rumour: Pokémon GO December Update Might Be A Gen 2 Monster Mash
It would be the perfect time to do it, just before Christmas.
Re: Rumour: The Skylanders Franchise Might Be Facing Cancellation
It's been a long time coming tbh. The sales numbers haven't been there since the 2nd game and there is way too much competition.
Re: Ubisoft 30th Anniversary Video Has Mario, Luigi And Toad In Rabbids Form
I hope it's not. 1. It's creepy 2. It won't sell well
Re: Pokkén Tournament to Get Another New Fighter in Arcades
Update the console version! I'll even pay for it as dlc.
Re: Exclusive Footage for The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild to Feature in The Game Awards
Thursday night? I'll be watching!
Re: Guide: The Top Nintendo Black Friday 2016 Deals in the US
I bought Bravely Second and Lego Star Wars for a combined $40 at Best Buy, and it would usually be $80.
Re: Black Friday: 30 Of The Best Nintendo T-Shirts
We need more Splatoon clothing based on the gear from the game.
Re: North American eShop Cyber Deals Include Over 40 Discounts
@Tyranexx @Jumpman
You guys are right, I might as well get it now.
Re: North American eShop Cyber Deals Bring Over 40 Discounts
Almost want to buy Link's Awakening DX, but I haven't even started Minish Cap from the E3 sale. Must... resist...
Re: Talking Point: What We'd Like To See In Super Smash Bros. For Nintendo Switch
A more stable online, an offline tournament mode, and player created tournaments online would be great.
Re: Rumour: Nintendo Switch Release Date and Key Games Outlined
Things like a "Pikmin reboot" and all of these ports have me skeptical.
Re: Feature: Reflecting on Four Years of the Wii U
It was the best and worst of Nintendo combined. Great games and a good system design that was plagued by bad decisions.
Re: Nintendo Drops The Ban Hammer on Pokémon Sun and Moon Pirates
This was the perfect response and I feel no sympathy for those affected. I almost wish Nintendo banned their IP address!
Re: Nintendo Picks Up Mobile / Handheld Nominations for The Game Awards 2016
They have family game and fighting game for sure, not sure about the others.
Re: Shigeru Miyamoto is Now 64 Years Old
Happy Birthday Miyamoto!
Re: Rumour: Nintendo Switch Will Have Super Mario And Skyrim At Launch, Splatoon Coming As Pack-In
Doesn't sound bad (Zelda is concerning), but it's a rumor so...
Re: Nintendo of America Seeks Fan Feedback on Social Media Channels
Wow that was long.
Re: Rumour: The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild Won't Be Ready by March
I don't think the NX will be either.
Re: Rumour: Nintendo Switch To Start At £199.99 In United Kingdom, $329.99 In Canada
Good price, but is it powerful enough to compete if it's so cheap?
Re: Poll: Retro Delights and Stock Shortages - What Are Your Thoughts on the NES Mini Launch?
I'm not planning on getting one until Christmas but this is ridiculous. Nintendo is one of the biggest video game companies in the world yet they are so far behind their rivals when it comes to shipping (almost like they are behind their rivals in tech). They can't blame this on a worker strike this time, and if this is self produced in order to create scarcity (like Amiibos were) then they deserve the bad sales this thing will get.
Re: NVIDIA CEO Talks Up 'Incredible' Nintendo Switch
You know what's an easy thing to do to amaze gamers? Show off great games on it.
Re: Poochy and Yoshi's Woolly World Will Let You Create Custom Yoshi Skins
This is the kind of stuff that makes sense to add into these 3DS ports, not removing features like in Super Mario Maker.
Re: Looks Like That Bravely Default Tease Was For A Smartphone Game
What a joke, game developers need to learn how to be a little more clear when they announce tease things.
Re: Random: The Famicom Mini Ain't Got Nothing On This Mini Famicom Mini
I want the system specks on this thing!
Re: Nintendo Share Value Joins Market in Recovery from Post-US Election Drop
I just keep telling myself that it's the people's choice and while I don't respect it I have to accept it.
Re: Generation II Pocket Monsters Found in Pokemon GO Update Code
This would not only be awesome, but if would be perfect timing too.
Re: Poll: Are You Excited About the Mini NES?
It's a cool concept that I want reused in the future for more retro systems. I'll definitely get one, but probably not until Christmas.
Re: Dragon Quest VIII: Journey of the Cursed King Arrives on 20th January
I'm definitely getting this. Big DQ fan and Fragments of the Forgotten Past is great. DQ 7 did well, and if this does too then we could be getting way more DQ games in the future.
Re: Daily Bonuses Are on the Way to Pokémon GO
No complaints here. Just hurry up on gen 2!
Re: Feature: Catch Up With the Animal Crossing Direct and New Leaf's Fresh Features
This update sounds sweet! I'm hoping for a sequel is coming soon, but I'll take a free update that doesn't require Amiibo.
Re: Rumour: Last Wii U Consoles Roll Off The Production Line This Week
It's a great console and I highly recommended it. Good first party and virtual console.
Re: "All New" Daytona USA is Indeed Coming to Arcades
A console version would be great, but I doubt it would happen. Still sounds good though.
Re: Gallery: Check Out These Nintendo Switch Joy-Con Mock Ups
Hopefully the Switch has as many bundles as the 3DS did.
Re: Nintendo Switch to Reportedly Include 4GB of RAM
If it's that small then it's already doomed.
Re: Video: Episodes 9 and 10 of Pokémon Generations Are Now Ready for Your Viewing Pleasure
Please turn this into a permanent thing!
Re: Pokémon Sun and Moon Are The "Best Pre-Selling Games in Nintendo History"
They were already going to break records, but considering that these will be China's first Pokemon games, they will be an even bigger success.
Re: Gallery: Pokémon Sun and Moon's Fully Evolved Starters, Classic Battle Opponents, New Pokémon and More
Everything in that trailer was so cool! Also I'm getting Litten, I like it's final evolution more than the others (but the other two don't look bad). This game is gonna be something special.
Re: Nintendo's Switch Preview Was Watched By More Than 23 Million People
I wonder how many of those people will actually buy it. Someone needs to compare this trailer to the Wii U trailer with likes and dislikes.
Re: Nintendo Is Refusing To Let Project Giant Robot And Devilish Brain Training Die
Maybe they can make Giant Robot on NX since it has a feature the Wii U didn't?
