Great job, however I can't help but feel that it got a perfect score because Masahiro Sakurai writes for Famitsu (does he still do that?). ~Haha, not really. This game is gonna rock!~
Honestly, I think Japan is doing just fine. I just think Sam Fish made a dumb comment about his opinion. As long as the games are good, whether or not a series is being milked, I'm okay. Still, it would be nice to see some new game series...
Half Pipes meet Warp Pipes. Sounds fun! Maybe it will be in the sequel. I'm not crazy about having my face on Peach's body (she would have serious Peach fuzz!).
All three sound interesting. I played Sonic Triple Trouble in Sonic Gems Collection and thought that it was fun (more fun than the ultra-challenging Game Gear Sonic 2), plus Shinobi has peaked my interest.
@Squiggle55: The reasons I didn't like 8 so much were the fact that it lacked a true widescreen mode, had pretty bland visuals, lame character choices (Blooper? Seriously?), and a boring single-player mode. At least that's my opinion. I'm not trying to troll or anything. If you like it, by all means like it!
Back to Mario Party 9, I am surprisingly excited about it! I'm going to rent it first, though.
WARNING: The following comment is positive. While I am kind of bummed that this isn't a 3DS release, The Pokémon Company at least has a good idea going for it. I'm glad that these two games are direct sequels, not just a jazzed-up version of the original Black and White (in other words, not a Gray version). Plus, the fusion concept is sort of interesting. I just need to learn more about it.
By the way, I'm guessing most of you will wind up buying the game.
Looks like a nice refreshing take on the Mario Party formula. Quite honestly, I'm very interested about MP9. Looks like Birdo's playable, too. I hope Donkey Kong or Diddy Kong are playable. Maybe Rosalina?

Re: Kid Icarus Uprising Gets Perfect Review Score in Famitsu

Re: Mad Dog McCree Takes Aim at 3DS
Not for me. If I am craving Mad Dog McCree, I will watch Taco-Man's review of it instead of downloading it.
Re: Donkey Kong and Pikmin Could Have Had Cameos in Super Mario Galaxy 2
If not the Pikmin, how about Olimar? He is short and squat like Mario. Plus, if you mix up his name and take out the "l," it spells "Mario."
Re: Wii Remotes Can Help Diagnose Eye Disorder
Surprising! This is just as sweet as the use of Wii consoles for physical therapy!
Re: Rumour: Donkey Kong 3D Swinging Into View
I doubt that this is real, but I have high hopes that someday Retro Studios will make a Donkey Kong Land Returns for 3DS.

Re: Review: Punch-Out!! Featuring Mr. Dream (3DS eShop / NES)
It's nice to finally have a portable Punch-Out!!, but I'm not sure if I want it, seeing how I already own it on the Wii.
Re: Super Mario 3D Land Could Have Had Skateboarding
Half Pipes meet Warp Pipes. Sounds fun! Maybe it will be in the sequel. I'm not crazy about having my face on Peach's body (she would have serious Peach fuzz!).
Re: Indie Developer Phil Fish Says Japanese Games 'Suck'
Let's agree to disagree, okay Mr. Fish? You obviously don't know what you're saying.
Re: Game Gear Hits North American eShop on 15th March
All three sound interesting. I played Sonic Triple Trouble in Sonic Gems Collection and thought that it was fun (more fun than the ultra-challenging Game Gear Sonic 2), plus Shinobi has peaked my interest.
Re: North America, These Are Your Upcoming eShop Games
Punch-Out!! and the Rhythm Thief demo are my highlights. I am especially anticipating the latter.
Re: Spanish Pokémon Team Disgraced
This is the first time I've heard about something Poo related Nintendo-wise since Earthbound!
Re: Review: Metroid (3DS eShop / NES)
I should come back to play this very soon, especially since I gave it the update. Metroid should be much more enjoyable with the Suspend feature.
Re: This is Meloetta, Pokémon Number 648
@HeroOfWaffles: I kid! I kid! Yeesh! Can't you take a joke?
Re: This is Meloetta, Pokémon Number 648
Stupid sexy Pokémon...

Re: Mario Tennis Opens Up with New Gameplay Video
Looks great! I'm also noticing new courts, so it's NOT a remake of Mario Power Tennis! This should be a fun game!
Re: The Last Story Coming to Wii in North America
Hurray! Project Rainfall worked!
Re: Review: Rhythm Heaven Fever (Wii)
Amazing, just like the last one. I can't wait to pick this one up so I can control baby seals and lobsters.
Re: Are Bowser and Dr. Eggman in Disney's New Film?
FInally, a big-screen Bowser that won't disappoint me!
Re: North America, You Get the MGS 3D Demo Tomorrow Too
SQUEE!!!!
Re: Feature: Nintendo Characters Looking for Love
Very clever! Tingle's was laugh out out funny.
Re: Kid Icarus: Uprising AR Events On the Cards
Well, at least I won't have to worry about buying packs of cards with so many duplicates of cards I already own.
Re: Nintendo Appoints a Celebrity 'Spokesdog'
What's he going to do, bark the Mario theme?
Re: See, Kids? Sonic and Mario Weren't Always Friends
O_O Poor Japanese Mario Bros.....
Re: Mario Party 2 Joins the Club Nintendo Rewards Gang
Only two games? Ah well. At least this gives me a good reason to pick up Mario Party 2!
Re: New Rhythm Heaven Fever Trailer Makes No Sense
Baseball players, stringy birds, and dancing lobsters? What have I been eating?
Re: Iwata: Zelda on Wii U Won't Look Cheap
Zelda will look AMAZING in HD. I hope the Super Mario Galaxy team can make something gorgeous, too.
Re: Nintendo May Not Call Wii U a Home Console
It's just a console. Whether it's home or portable is up to you. Why? It's both.
Re: Nintendo Announces 2D Super Mario Title for 3DS
I hope you can ride Yoshi in this game...
Re: Wii U Controller Gets Intriguing New Wireless Technology
@NintyFan: I can totally picture that! It will add more replay value, much like the AR Card feature in Kid Icarus Uprising!
Re: Nintendo Network Will Get Competitions and User Communication
Sounds very promising. I'm glad Nintendo is appealing to the core gamers again.
Re: Iwata: "Wii U Will Be At its Best at Launch"
Launch it with a Mario game, and it will sell. That's a fact.
Re: North American Resident Evil Packaging is Wrong
I don't see what all the hait is about.
Re: Nintendo Unlocks Kid Icarus: Uprising Multiplayer Details
Sounds fun! I hope it isn't like Brawl's online mode...
Re: Rayman Origins 3DS Has No Multiplayer
That's lame, but I have always played the Wii version in single-player anyways. The only way for me to make a judgement is to play the upcoming demo.
Re: Rayman Origins 3DS Leaps the Atlantic on 20th March
Scrumptious!
Re: Wahoo, It's a Mario Party 9 Trailer
Looks like a nice refreshing take on the Mario Party formula. Quite honestly, I'm very interested about MP9. Looks like Birdo's playable, too. I hope Donkey Kong or Diddy Kong are playable. Maybe Rosalina?
Re: Mario and Zelda Sheet Music Now Available
Sounds like a nice idea. Too bad I can't play piano...
Re: Feature: Nintendo Life Presents... Pullblox Levels
Looks fun! I'll download the right away!
Re: Finally, Shouting at Donkey Kong Makes a Difference
"C'mon you stinkin' hedgehog! If you're the fastest thing alive, how come you're being out-run by that flabby Wario!?"
After years of screaming at video games, the games finally listen!
Re: Kid Icarus: Uprising Trailer Shoots Past
Sakurai, you have outdone yourself again?
"Who are YOU callin' a puppet!?"
Re: Nintendo Reveals More Kid Icarus: Uprising Details
This could possibly be the best pre-order bonus ever, two games on the same day! I must know where I can pre-order!
Re: North America Gets 3DS eShop Demo Tomorrow
Just in time! I hope they do a Kid Icarus demo near March 23!
Re: Sakurai: Next Smash Bros. "May Take a While"
Take as long as possible! Just make it a great game (which I'm sure it will be).
Re: Rumour: Two Zelda Titles in Development
Seems kinda soon for new 3DS Zelda games, but I like the thought of them. It's probably fictional, though...
Re: Kid Icarus's 3DS Stand Coming to North America Too
It's free and it's included. I'll have to give it a try.
Re: Your Favourite WiiWare Demos Are Now Back
MotoHeroz and Jett Rocket for me!
Re: Fact Sheet: Kid Icarus: Uprising Details Updated
March can't come soon enough! My only complaint are the predetermined AR Card battles...
