He definitely deserves it. I absolutely love Final Fantasy and while I haven't played his other titles like Chrono Trigger, it's too hard not to see how much they are loved by the gaming community.
Meh, just Paper Mario with the graphics of the sequels, but with Twink a Luma now (WTF) and some downgrades (the backgrounds really ruin the aesthetic feel of the original).
@TheLobster That's pretty much the official timeline set by Gamefreak. Gen I and III occur at the same time. 3 years later are Gen II and IV An uncomfirmed amount of time after that is Blacka and White And two years later is B2W2 and X and Y.
So many great memories. My N64 still gets lots of love and is still hooked and played regularly to this day. Some of my faovurite single player experiences come from this system and most of my favourite multiplayer experiences have come from it as well. I don't think I've ever played on a console so much with friends as I have with the N64.
I really only remember one Dragon Quest song (I think it's the main theme). I would like to see DQ games get localised as the only ones I have are DQH: Rocket Slime and DQM: Joker. I just don't see this getting released outside of Japan though.
@KeeperBvK Yes but there fact that there's been so many cancelled Cradh games was my first point. The games released after this weren't very good either.
This isn't the only error. Aside from Amiibos being placed in the packaging upside down, I've seen a Fox one who was literally attached to the stand upside down.
So he really is too big? I just know this interview is going to cause massive flame wars. I can understand why Sakurai would only include Ridley if he is was intimidating like he normally is, but there's probably people who want in him so much they would settle for shrunk down Ridley.
I wasn't really sure about Splatoon when it was first revealed at E3. The single player campaign has me considering it now, as I wasn't really sure if I would want to pay for a multi-player only game.
Ahhh, the first installment in my favourite video game series. This still holds its value and to this day I can play it for hours without getting bored.
I remember getting my Purple GBC. After some great memories it died on me. I still kept all my games and thankfully years later I was able to get a green one and was able to once again play some delightful gaming treasures.
Fair enough, I thought having Pokemon in 3D on a handheld pretty much defeated the purpose of having a Stadium game. If it was something more than just battling and minigames, closer to a full Pokemon game it would be more justified.
Still play this every now and then and still enjoy it. My friends and family always have fun when Proximity Mines create havoc on Facility in Multiplayer!
@joey302 Having billions of dollars doesn't necessarily make it feasible to produce a big retail game each month. Major releases take time, some times years and with big development teams.
Anyway I hope all the people who lost their job find luck in the future and aren't out of a job for too long.

Really enjoyed both games. Glad to have contributed to those sales.

Re: Mobile Hit Badland Is Coming To The Wii U eShop
@johannes_v
Thanks for the confirmation. Great to hear!
I'll be sure to keep me eye out for it.
Re: Mobile Hit Badland Is Coming To The Wii U eShop
Actually looks pretty cool
@johannes_v Same question as @Xilef but will there also be an Australian release?
Re: Nintendo Stays in Profit With Wii U on Target, Though 3DS Sales Fall
Good to hear.
I'm guessing with New 3DS launching in America and Europe as well as MM3D releasing the figures should improve.
Re: Weirdness: Hands Up If You Knew About the Super-Easy Button Combination to Resume Progress in Super Mario Bros.
I honestly had no idea. My whole life has been a lie.
Re: Rumour: Cave Story 2 Teased at PAX South and Could Be in the Works
I would love to see another Cave Story. There was a lot of stuff in the game that could easily open up to a sequel or prequel.
Re: Super Smash Bros. Tournament Organiser Steps Down Following Allegations Of Sexual Harassment
@KirbyKirbyKirby
The sad part is he was named and shamed years ago but its taken far too long for anything to amount from it.
Re: Gunman Clive 2 Shooting for 29th January Release
Looking forward to this. I got a lot of fun out of the first one for the price.

Re: Weirdness: Guess What, A Pokémon Title Exists On A Sega Console
There's a couple other ones for the Sega Pico.

Re: Interview: Nintendo Arcade Collector Shoots From the Hip With Rare Sheriff Cabinet
That's really cool. The design of the machine is stunning.
Re: Weirdness: The Pokémon Timeline Seems as Crazy as The Legend of Zelda's Equivalent
@TheLobster
That's pretty much the official timeline set by Gamefreak.
Gen I and III occur at the same time.
3 years later are Gen II and IV
An uncomfirmed amount of time after that is Blacka and White
And two years later is B2W2 and X and Y.

Nintendo costumes for One Piece. I never knew I wanted this.

Re: The Next Theatrhythm Game Is All About Dragon Quest, And It's Coming To The 3DS In 2015

Re: Assets For Cancelled Nintendo DS Version Of Crash Tag Team Racing Emerge
@KeeperBvK
Yes but there fact that there's been so many cancelled Cradh games was my first point. The games released after this weren't very good either.
Re: Early December Update Will Fix Pokémon Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire Freezing Glitch
My game didn't freeze. I wonder how many people experienced freezing
Re: Assets For Cancelled Nintendo DS Version Of Crash Tag Team Racing Emerge
Yikes, another cancelled Crash game. Will a new Crash game ever see the light of day?
Re: This Rather Attractive Nintendo Complete Guide Book is Coming to Japan
How I wish this was made an international release
Re: Weirdness: Factory Error Results in Dual-Wielding Samus amiibo
This isn't the only error. Aside from Amiibos being placed in the packaging upside down, I've seen a Fox one who was literally attached to the stand upside down.
Re: Sakurai Explains Why Ridley Is Not A Playable Fighter In Super Smash Bros.

I just know this interview is going to cause massive flame wars. I can understand why Sakurai would only include Ridley if he is was intimidating like he normally is, but there's probably people who want in him so much they would settle for shrunk down Ridley.
Re: Eiji Aonuma Confirms Majora's Mask 3D Has Been In Development Since 2011
As I haven't played the original it wouldn't bother if it was 'just another remake', I'm going to get it anyway. Can't wait for it to release!
Re: Single Player Campaign for Splatoon Detailed, Q2 2015 Release Planned
I wasn't really sure about Splatoon when it was first revealed at E3. The single player campaign has me considering it now, as I wasn't really sure if I would want to pay for a multi-player only game.
Re: Expect To See More Spin-Off Titles Like Hyrule Warriors In 2015, Says Miyamoto
I can't wait to see what is coming up next year. Hopefully the direct reveals some of these spin offs.
Re: Nintendo 64x64: Wipeout 64
I had some fun playing this game. While it eventually was overshadowed by my other games it was still a nice little diversion for me.
Re: Review: Donkey Kong Land III (3DS eShop / Game Boy)
I have DKL2 and 3 on their sweet banana yellow cartridges and I honestly prefered this one over the second.
Re: Super Smash Bros. for Wii U European Release Date Brought Into November
Just checked Nintendo Australia and NZ twitter and facebook. This is happening there as well!
Re: Nintendo 64x64: Super Smash Bros
Ahhh, the first installment in my favourite video game series. This still holds its value and to this day I can play it for hours without getting bored.
Re: The Game Boy Color is Now 16 Years Old

Re: Nintendo 64x64: Pokemon Snap
What an excellent first person shooter
I found it pretty fun trying to figure out how to unlock levels or getting certain Pokemon to appear
Re: Nintendo 64x64: Snowboard Kids
Love this game and still play it a lot!
Re: It'll be Possible to Catch All 719 Pokémon Using Omega Ruby & Alpha Sapphire With X & Y
Eh, I already completed the National Dex in Y, I guess doing it in Alpa Saphire will require even less effort.
Re: Game Freak Confirms That The Pokémon Stadium Series Is On Hiatus
Fair enough, I thought having Pokemon in 3D on a handheld pretty much defeated the purpose of having a Stadium game. If it was something more than just battling and minigames, closer to a full Pokemon game it would be more justified.
Re: Nintendo 64x64: Paper Mario
I played thorugh this again recently and I found myself enjoying just as much as when I played through it before.
Re: Rare Donkey Kong Delights to Grace the Wii U and 3DS
This is great!
I have DKC on GBA and I have DKL II and III, but now I'll finally be able to play the other entries!
Re: Mega Video Game Fan Aaron "NintendoTwizer" Norton Auctions Gaming Goldmine
Whoever gets this will be pretty happy (their wallet probably won't). TBH, I just wish my gaming collection was as well presented as this one.
Re: Weirdness: Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS Explains Why 'Metroid' Can't Crawl
Is this the US version? the description in my game is different.
Re: Nintendo 64x64: GoldenEye 007
Still play this every now and then and still enjoy it. My friends and family always have fun when Proximity Mines create havoc on Facility in Multiplayer!
Re: Video: Japanese Commercial For New 3DS Highlights Those Fetching "Kisekae Plate" Covers

There's also this web page for it http://www.nintendo.co.jp/3ds/kisekae/index.html#/top
Re: Nintendo 64x64: F1 World Grand Prix
I have this game but I hardly played it.
Re: Club Nintendo Members In Australia To Receive Pokémon Omega Ruby & Alpha Sapphire Demo Via Exclusive Email
I hope I get a code. I wasn't able to get the Smash Bros. Demo code
Re: Nintendo Unleashes Wacky Super Smash Bros. For Nintendo 3DS Commercials
This is how I settle everything with my friends
Re: Nintendo 64x64: Mario Tennis
Got this game on the Wii's VC and love it. It's a well crafted spin off.
Re: Nintendo Download: 18th September (Europe)
So the Smash Demo wasn't listed? Have demos been listed before?
As someone who didn't get a code I hope the demo comes out.
Re: Mega Camerupt, Mega Gallade, and Mega Sharpedo Revealed in CoroCoro Magazine
I really like Mega Camerupt
Re: The Super Mario Bros. Movie Is Coming To Blu-ray In The UK This November
I'd get it. I have a recording of it on VHS when it was TV one time. I still have no idea why I like it so much.
Re: Shovel Knight Rated By The Australian Classification Board
Hope it releases soon. When it does, I hope I haven't wasted all my money buying other stuff. It seems to take me forever to get eShop games.
