Bad Piggies is my only for sure, but I'd love to nab review codes for Cave Story eShop and/or BIT.TRIP CORE Steam so I could get cracking on reviews for them.
@HarmoKnight Well, my basic argument boils down to: tablets, even the worst ones, have fantastic games (notice I even left out how I think some of them are better than Nintendo games!). Your rebuttal was that tablets don't have a few random games that you decided to mention. How does that negate my argument in any way?
For the record, Eureka, when I said "you guys" I meant NL at large, not you or any specific person. I enjoy most of Nintendo's games too. Glad that we can all agree.
Waltz is at the EB Expo, otherwise I'm sure he'd make quick work of this argument. In the meantime you guys will just have to settle for me.
@HarmoKnight Yeah, those and countless others that the Wii never had. My point is that there are fantastic gaming experiences on tablets, which is something you don't seem to acknowledge. I tried to make it easier for you by referencing games that you might have played, but evidently my efforts were wasted on you.
Riddle me this, Nintendo: why did my first-gen Kindle, which only had access to the Amazon App Store, play some of my favorite Wii games better than the Wii did?
Do yourself a favor by grabbing the new Nintendo Power when it hits store shelves and checking out the Little Inferno download section cover story. It will convince you to purchase a Wii U (that is, if you don't have access to a PC that can run games).
Apparently Two Tribes doesn't like Bane very much.
"Toki Tori was born in complete and utter darkness. He didn't see the light until he was already a fully grown chicken. And by then it was nothing to him but blinding. The shadows betray whomever dared abduct his siblings, because the shadows belong to him, and him alone."
@k8sMum I know this is off-topic, and this is crazy, but I wanted to clear up something about the "don't wanna live on this planet anymore" thread maybe. It wasn't about his parents (I know that they're right more often than not), but rather about general failings he sees in society. Like I said, he's usually right about those.
@TeslaChippie If you compare my link to the Wii U version's E3 page, you'll notice that the 3DS one neglects to mention the object editor. Plus, Nintendo Power outright confirmed that there won't be one. Sorry.
@ThomasBW84 Much better. I wasn't trying to be as critical as I probably came off, it's just that there were a lot of ideas in the article (it posits that there should be smartphone-type games, big Nintendo franchises, new DLC for existing Nintendo games, more obscure Nintendo franchises, etc.), though I suppose it was a fairly big subject to tackle and the article was pretty well organized.
"Pullblox – Pushmo in North America, Dillon’s Rolling Western and Freakyforms: Your Creations, Alive! have all arrived — while occupying top 10 places on the eShop 3DS Download chart — with the latter now prompting a retail follow-up. That’s undoubtedly positive, and with some excellent third-party offerings — as well as the DSiWare library – the eShop is in relatively strong health."

This article seems to be kind of all over the place (although all of the idea do involve big franchises, I guess), but I agree that we need more high-profile, first-party stuff on the eShop.

Re: Review: NightSky (3DS eShop)
@rayword45 Different people have different opinions. It's a fact of life.
Re: Review: NightSky (3DS eShop)
I agree with everything said in this review times 100 (at least what I know from playing the PC version at the beginning of last year).

Re: Nintendo: Phones And Tablets Aren't Games Devices
Actually, I'm glad that Reala pointed out the gaping holes in HarmoKnight's logic. That way I didn't have to.
Re: Nintendo: Phones And Tablets Aren't Games Devices
@Alien_Mosky 11/10
@HarmoKnight Oh right I forgot. If that's all you play, then I see why you don't consider tablets gaming devices.

Re: Nintendo: Phones And Tablets Aren't Games Devices
@HarmoKnight Did I ever say that those were "some of my favorite Wii games?" Try the likes of Toki Tori, World of Goo, and BIT.TRIP BEAT.
