I personally rather like amiibos. I own a total of 5, not because I'm huge on the whole NFC craze but because for a decent price, I've been able to obtain rather nicely detailed figures. One such example is my King Dedede, I could spend hours marvelling over it!
That said, I am picky over which ones I want. Hence my limited collection. It's a mixed bag with what you get! However, they're never going to be fully required for any big title released, so I think it's all about the physical for me, and not the capabilities. For the most part, that is how I see it. :3
I'd really want to take part! :3 Although ever since it became apparent that Nintendo is slowly phasing out support for Splatoon, I haven't been playing like I used to. It would be fun to watch & cosplay though!
Yeah I figured there was going to be a catch. ;-; For me, it's all about how the screen looks. If it's stretched, fuzzy and overall worse, it's hardly superior with a better backlight. I still have my red GBA SP and the only way to persuade me to give it up is for a better screen!!
YES!! So much yes! I need my Kirbyccino... why Japan, do you get the best things? Haha but yea, it sure sounds like an adorable idea, imagining Kirby music playing on the speakers and people working dressed up as Kirby characters. Not to mention food styled on the food seen in the games! <(^~^<)
Yeah if Pikmin 4 was more of a priority it may very well be a launch title for NX... but it isn't so we're likely to see it in 2018 if we're lucky. ;-;
Interesting speculation. But had Nintendo been more willing to go out of their comfort zone before hand, the Wii U could have had so many more variations than Basic/Premium versions they released. :x and Cross Buy would have been a given, considering you can easily link Wii U with any 3DS system.
I'd totally be up for an official Nintendo Smart device controller ^_^ ever since they released the Hori Super Famicom Classic Control, I've always wanted one wireless + bluetooth!!
Aww so adorable ;w; kinda reminds me of in Wind Waker when Link pretended to be a cat to sneak up on the girl. Might need to add this to my list of games to play :3
Oh!! Uh... wait I thought there was going to be full Callie & Marie outfits for my Mii to wear... ;w; that would have been worth redownloading Miitomo for!
Pokémon Moon, Ace Attorney 6 & Dragon Quest VII... all of which I can hardly contain my hype over... ;-; in fact, they will likely absorb my 3DS!! Also, Rhythm Heaven Megamix when it comes physical in Europe too!
I'm willing to give Federation Force a chance considering Next Level's style of games. (Luigi's Mansion 2 was amazing imo)
You wouldn't believe how eager I am to finally be able to play DQ7... it's a game I've been longing to play ever since it was released late on PS1 and didn't get a Europe release. ;-; ...HYPE! Ahm, sorry about that, this is such an instant purchase for me. :3
Let me see, I own this game on N64, GamwCube & 3DS... tempting to get again! ^w^ This game is the best of its generation, still can't believe it only too 18 months to create.
I know it's unlikely but it would be nice if the Wii U version was enhanced for HD.
Yay, more names to try and remember! ^_^ I'm only kidding, these designs are looking to give the Alola region such a unique feel. I especially like Drampa, honestly it wouldn't look out of place in Wind Waker (Valoo, anyone?) which I absolutely adore.
Greninja seems most likely, then Lopunny or maybe even Krookodile. (My pick) I don't think we'd see Sun & Moon Pokémon in Pokkén until after November :3
@Ed_Fairway Aw no worries, I just making myself a bit clearer that's all. I love Super Paper Mario, so many cool ideas in there, so many possibilities!
@Ed_Fairway All I was saying was, in a technological perspective, this is an amazing feat. No, it doesn't add to the gameplay or anything, but damn is it impressive.
I can't get over how impressive this really is. Making games which originally never used 3D graphics, giving them the simply 2.5D style make over. Without getting too complicated, even, regarding each game. ^_^
Oh my, nostalgia overload!! <(^_^)> I had a Pokémon mini for my 6th birthday. (Chikorita Edition) It was the first system I ever owned (I was deemed to wreckless to gave a Gameboy at that age!) But despite that I loved it and took care of it (until the lapse of time took it from me) and had Pokémon Party Mini & Pinball.
I played this game on Wii U... because you know, spiritual successor to Mega Man on the great-great-grandchild of the SNES just seemed, well... like a no brainier to me in 2013. ;-; but I guess I'm the one with the no brain for playing it on there now!
@Ed_Fairway Yes!! I think Splatoon would work even better as a N3DS enhanced game (more likely exclusive) title. The colours of ink stand out in contrast to the environment so it would be clear to see on the smaller screen.
Wow, my favourite 2D Mario game which I spent my childhood playing, and happen to own 3 copies of (4 if you include VC) and they managed to beat it super fast? that is amazing!
Aw hey, when I read the title I didn't expect to have to play a knock off Splatoon to keep me over! ;-; Splatoon on 3DS would be ideal: not a direct port (that would suck) but a new game altogether.
@Ed_Fairway I suppose you're right about that. I'm sure whatever we get next it will be better, if marginally. ^_^ That dark side of fandoms are to be kept away from!
@Ed_Fairway Ohh my... ;~; if those supposed sequels that Inafune mentioned actually happen and say, he didn't learn from his mistakes... no, I can't dare myself to think about what could be! comforts you :x
So wait, I'm racking my mind over this so much... so are the Tetris blocks there to aid the 'cast' in someway? Like, they're used to help them through situations/problems? Or are the blocks the enemy? Against other blocks? Are the Tetris blocks anthropomorphic? I'm confused. ;-;

@Ed_Fairway Both irony & oxymorons are used for contradictary purposes. ^_^;; it's more like a surreal happening in this case.

@LasermasterA I played Wind Waker recently too, the expression on Link's face is just too cute when he meows. :3
I don't know but it should do!

Re: Review: The Legend of Zelda: Majora's Mask (Wii U / N64)
@Ed_Fairway Awh haha yeah I wanted the game too but I got no money at the moment ^_^;;
I love Ōkami! Amaterasu!! That was the first game I got on Wii from 2007! I'd so play it again if it weren't for the sensor bar always misbehaving.
Re: Review: The Legend of Zelda: Majora's Mask (Wii U / N64)
@Ed_Fairway I've had a go at Twilight Princess HD from a friend, it gives the game a whole richer feeling of you ask me.

@Ed_Fairway Haha yeah possibly, I'd imagine the most popular Pokémon of Generation 7 will be appearing in a later date, whoever that may be ^_^
Re: Video: Nintendo Begins Pushing Teddy Together On UK Children's Television
I played the demo, reminded me of Tomodachi life & Nintendogs. It's rather charming :3 really would have appealed to my younger self!
