The 3DS's launch day lineup definitely sucked. I bought the system on day one, but I didn't buy a game for it because all the games were so bad! I still had fun toying around with the software built into the system though.
Why do people always forget Twilight Princess when they talk about the Wii's launch? I know it was originally a GC game, but TP anchored the Wii's launch day lineup. The fact the Wii had a killer app on day one was huge.
To be honest, all of Sonic's Game Gear games were horrible. They're some of the worst games I have ever played. Besides, you can play them all in Sonic Adventure DX and Sonic Gems Collection if you're really curious so don't waste your money.
I thought Brawl's physics were good. For example, in Melee bodies would fly right through each other, but it Brawl they'll bounce of each other if they make contact.
In my opinion Wario Land is definitely better than Mario Land 2. WL's levels are bigger, more complex, and there's more of them. Not to mention WL's graphics and soundtrack are better.
I don't normally comment on this site, but I had to for this one. In Metroid Fusion, the game makes the nature of Samus and Adam's relationship ambiguous so I can see how some people think otherwise, but their relationship in Other M is strictly paternal. The game gives absolutely no hint of an intimate relationship. Samus frequently admits she viewes Adam as a father figure so anything to the contrary is just a figment of the imagination.
Everyone is over reacting to the price drop, Nintendo's holiday sales will shut 'em up. Let's hope Nintendo will never have to revert to being a 3 party dev.
Mega Man is a must download. I never downloaded any of the NES ones for the Wii's VC since I already played them all in the Anniversary Collection for GC.
Luckily, those were the two games I wanted most! I just watched a Youtube video on the Metroid Queen boss fight yesterday. I'm not too thrilled about the "Quarter 4" release dates though.

Re: Nintendo Working On Wii Remote Fast Charging Battery Pack
I'm fine with rechargeable AAs.
Re: Sega Adds Disclaimer to Aliens: Colonial Marines Trailers
Have any of you even played the game? It wasn't great, but it wasn't nearly as bad as everyone said it was.
Re: First Impressions: New Super Mario Bros. U
Flying squirrel Mario (the three best words ever?)
Yes.
Re: Talking Point: Are E3 Conferences a Dying Breed?
Twilight Princess was revealed in 2004, not 2005 remember? That was the conference where Reggie made his infamous debut.
Re: Talking Point: Are E3 Conferences a Dying Breed?
A dying breed? Sure as hell seemed like it.

Re: Nintendo Patents 'Ornamental Design' for 3DS Circle Pad
Although this is nice, I don't know why people complain about the 3DS's slider pad. I thought it was fine.
Re: Make Your Own Movies in Pokémon Black and White 2
You get to face a lot more than Giovanni at the World Tournament. Other articles have mentioned Brock, Misty, and Blue (aka Gary).
Re: Rumour: Retro Studios Preparing Star Fox Wii U Reveal
If there is anyone who can fix Star Fox, it's Retro.
Re: Funcom: Wii U Could Do MMOs Without Compromise
World of Warcraft anyone?
Re: Battlefield 3 and NES Sounds Are Finally Together
@runeacer74
Because the Wii would explode if it tried. Have you seen MW3 on the Wii? Yuck!
Re: Battlefield 3 and NES Sounds Are Finally Together
I own Battlefield for the Xbox. It's an awesome game.
Re: SEGA: "Sonic VC Games Will Stay in Europe"
What about North America?!
Why does Sega want to take them off in the first place? Does it cost them anything to keep them up there?
Re: Feature: The Life and Times of SEGA's Game Gear
I thought those Sonic Game Gear games were horrible. I started playing Sonic Generations on the Xbox last night and that game is amazing!
Re: Two More Sonic Game Gear Games Rated

Re: Indie Developer Phil Fish Says Japanese Games 'Suck'
Who?
Re: Wii U Controller Originally Had Proper Analogue Sticks
Well why did they change it? As much as I like the slider on my 3DS, control sticks are better.
Re: Nintendo Japan Drops Wii no Ma Service
Looks interesting.
Re: Review: The Last Story (Wii)
An 8 rating seems a bit low considering all the great things he said about the game.
Re: Review: Wario Land: Super Mario Land 3 (Game Boy)
In my opinion Wario Land is definitely better than Mario Land 2. WL's levels are bigger, more complex, and there's more of them. Not to mention WL's graphics and soundtrack are better.
Re: Talking Point: 3DS Depends on Nintendo Titles for Success
Great article, but the headline is stupid. Of course the 3DS's success depends on what software Nintendo releases!
Re: Welcome to the New Look Nintendo Life!
Love the new look guys, keep up the good work!

Re: Sonic Generations Screens Show Mushroom Hill Zone
Looks good.
Re: Kirby Wii Officially Renamed Kirby's Adventure Wii for Europe
Really original name guys...
Re: Capcom Sets Three Game Boy Games Onto 3DS VC
Mega Man is a must download. I never downloaded any of the NES ones for the Wii's VC since I already played them all in the Anniversary Collection for GC.
