Oh yeah, just today I dreamt about being able to take my Little Inferno Entertainment Fireplace with me. I'm so going to get that thing one more time. Also, the soundtrack is amazing - now we just need that bluetooth headset support, Nintendo!
Just ordered this - it's pretty awesome. Don't have enough stars left for the Pikmin keychain now though, so I'll have to buy lots of games to be able to buy that too.
Damn, Nintendo! Just make the screens four times the resolution (so that old games still look great) and update the GPU and you'd have the perfect 3DS successor!
The game is awesome, played it multiple times on the 3DS. Still, it is the Motherload "clone" (although with many unique ideas) with the least amount of content I played so far. I mean, less than four hours for the first complete play through? That's not enough for such a game in my book.
Too bad, I'm actually pretty hyped for this. So all the games I'm looking forward to (except Bayonetta) are pushed to next year - Xenoblade Chronicles X, Devil's Third, Zelda and Captain Toad? Looks like a bad second half of the year now after all.
If I had a Vita, the slip case would be mine! But as it is, I'll wait for the next Sony handheld until I jump at it again. I loved Monster Hunter on my PSP, but now with MH3U and MH4U on the 3DS there's little reason for me to invest in the Sony ecosystem again.
I loved secret bases in the old ruby days, but these seem even better! Just imagine downloading Reggie Fis-a-mechs super secret base through his QR code!
Just put about 10 hours into the game, and I'm not too far into it. It's definitely fun, and I'm looking forward to continue it. It just has been a busy time since I got my 3DS XL - too many great games to play on that thing.
That'd be pretty much the only deal that could make me buy a 3DS XL now. The 3DS XL Animal Crossing special edition should count for console AND game, right? That'd make €190 for a 3DS XL with AC and Pokemon - what a great price! Still, doesn't matter when it's not in Europe.
Wow, with Citizens of Earth, Pier Solar HD and Shovel Knight there are three very interesting RPGs to come to the Wii U in march! Of those three, I am only sure to buy the first two though, Shovel Knight sounds a bit boring, but we'll see.
Looks very cool! Should be released March 14 according to Metacritic, which is pretty soon. Hope it's not overly expensive, but it sure looks like it's worth a spin.
There are two games I'd buy in a heartbeat although I still have them for my DS: Spectrobes and Lost in Blue (1, 2 or 3) - those were so innovative and entertaining.
I only buy a few games at full price a year, and this year there are too many other games to buy (only at the second half of the year though). So I'll wait until there's a sale on DKC:TF - if there ever will be one. For €30, I'd buy it in a heartbeat.
I live in Austria, and if that move at least means that I can buy Nintendo eShop cards without driving a few hours, I'd be happy. If it also means that Nintendo is able to explain to everybody what the Wii U is so I don't have to every time I talk about games, even better. Maybe they will even do local offers or something, but we'll see.
I planned to wait until the price drops below €20 anyways (probably 6 - 12 months after release), so I don't really care for a delay. Not gonna buy it for full price with that policy though.
A 4 Ultimate on Wii U would be great! A release mid next year leaves enough time to hunt everything in 3U a dozen or so times to prepare for the new Monter Hunter!
So by that logic a crap game for a good console should sell better than a good game for a obsolete console?
And, as for Wii U games, there are enough exclusives that I feel like I'm getting out enough of my investment - Pikmin 3, W101, MH3U, SM3DW, NSMBU, Lego City Undercover, Zelda WWHD, ZombiU and some more. On top of that, many multi platform games are best on WiiU because of Off TV Play (yep, I'm lovin' it) and for the fact that you can get all menus off the TV screen for the most immersive experience among all consoles (loved AC3 on WiiU!).
A game with a Metascore of 55 outsells one with a score of 94? Wow, that's a real bummer, also considering that Mario is one of the most well known gaming brands while Knack is a ... well, over-promoted piece of averageness.

Re: Hardware Review: 8Bitdo NES30 Bluetooth Controller
Do these MFi controllers also work on Mac OS X? I'd love to use a NES controller to play games on steam now and then!
Re: Captain Toad: Treasure Tracker Delay in Europe Explained
I don't think there are enough Wii U games for the holiday season this year. But maybe Nintendo has a surprise or two in the cards?

The free bonus game promotion did it's part too, for sure.

Re: XType Plus Blasting Onto The Wii U eShop on 31st July
Hope it's like Space Invaders Infinity Gene, although I doubt it's nearly as cool. The music level were all the rage! But I might just give it a try.
Re: SteamWorld Dig May Have a Discount on Wii U For Those With the 3DS Version
The game's too short, so I won't spend money on it again. If I want, I can just play it a third time on my 3DS XL.

Re: Don't Worry, Nintendo Hasn't Forgotten About The Virtual Console
How much work can it really be to get a SNES or GBA game working on a new platform? Free emulators do it almost as well.

GOLDEN SUN!!! Never was able to completely finish the first one (although I was sooo close), and now I'm getting a second chance! This is awesome.

Re: Review: Unepic (Wii U eShop)
How much content does the game have? I know the numbers, but I mean how long does it motivate you to play / replay it?
