@ACK

bluesun may be correct on this one. If one looks up one of the words in japanese text in google images (ex: that one word starting with BAINBAIN [if you don't know how to type it in japanese katakana use an online japanese dictionary and type it in CAPS], btw NSFW), you get. . . yeah, what the NOA translation is going for (Also that Tharja Figma thing). Also, on the gonintendo site, there's a user by the name of Tekka who has a translation of that part.

As for me, I like that the NOA translation kept close to the original. It's just odd that Tharja would get so mad about other people looking at her hair.

Also on the Mario games. How many Mario Games had been made? An immense amount, right? Basically, you can only go so far with innovation until you come to the point where the game play is massively different from any of the previous ones, it should just be a new type of game. Mario games have side-scrolling, jumping, action, 3D envrionment, sky, water, space, gravity, multiplayer, RPG, etc. What new innovations can you keep making until it's either no longer deemed a "Mario" game, or can no longer be different from any others of its kind? Really, anyone, give me ideas (I actually want to know, I can't think of much)

You know nowadays with the internet, it's REALLY hard to be surprised from anything (especially if you're a big fan for info). There's always that one person that gives away info before the official news. Unless you force yourself to not look at spoilers, but that's very hard.

That 3DS XL does look more toy-like than the original.

just watch the japanese one for animal crossing
someone should post it on youtube or something

KH DDD demo! AW YEAH!

@Jaco Yeah, now that would definitely suck, even if it makes games look better. I would be stuck with a crappier 3DS unless I cough up some cash.

@Jaco Come on, it's just like the DSi XL. Personally I would be very irritated if they released one with the second analog built in. What a total screw over for those who bought the original 3DS already. This was made so you can have a bigger screen, not a superior version to the original.

Hope the battery is better on this one though.

hmm. . .

Maybe my idea of a "Missing Generation 6" might actually happen. Hopefully new pokemon and evos(there are old pokemon that are dying for new evos)

got the idea name from code geass btw

I have this feeling that it may just be Keldeo. . . Hopefully not! An all new pokemon main series is a long shot(they haven't finished the anime yet anyway), but here's to pokemon gray to the 3DS. Or it can be a totally different game that's still like the main series but with 3D models, and maybe with sneak peaks on new pokemon. (I would really just love to have an Emonga evo that's vampire-esque(real vampires btw) tux, or an eevee evo(love the little thang). These are so long shots, better not get over hyped =)

Unfair? How so? If your playing online, it shouldn't be too hard to make a mandatory patch before you can play when you connect online. If in local multiplayer, you can just beat up the person cheating lol.

Really, that's a pathetic excuse, Nintendo -_-

@Picola Do you mean that one about your score? I think it's called "versus rank" or "versus rating"

Sigh, it will take 2 more weeks to get this game

AWESOME, can't wait! . . . Oh, it's only in Europe. Darn

There you go people. Now, ACTUALLY buy it when it comes out.

Good thing I waited for this before virtual console

Hey PETA, did'ya forget about mario 3, Tanuki suit AND Frog suit? What about teh turtle suit? Heck, the rabbit one, the bee one?

Crazy group.

I might actually get it b/c of it's ergonomics. I have such big hands. . .

Now this is boss.

Now if Nintendo just allowed commenting on reviews. . .

If Nintendo didn't name this machine Nintendo 3DS, it should not have been a problem. Names are important. Since Ninty has make 2 iterations of the DS, many people WILL think that this one is just another iteration. Even Though many people use the internet, not everyone will be researching on how different it is, rather more on its first impression. It looks very similar to the DS AND it even shares part of its name (unlike the PSP and the PS Vita, at least there's Vita to differentiate it), so most will assume that it's just another DS. When I had my 3DS in public, no one really noticed that it was the 3DS until I showed them.

Now looking at the Wii U, I can easily predict that it might have the same problem, but of course since the Wii didn't had any iterations, the similar naming may be ignored (hopefully).

@pixelman The only problem is the amount of customization posibilities of miis that can offend some people.

I don't go play mmorpgs so I'm not sure about this statement though. . .

@RadioShadow Well the fact that this game is called Mario Kart 7, it's well established that the producers do not recognize the arcade versions as full pledged Mario Kart titles(or something).

If that makes no sense then sorry, it's kind of hard on how to word this.

@CerealKiller062 Don't forget the word "Super" in the original mario kart game: Super Mario Kart.

Anyway, here I thought that people hated things named 3D or what console the game was played in :

Of course perfectly normal. . . For the Japanese society.

No online multiplayer? I thought there was one. That E3 video showed people's faces in the multiplayer mode. I mean, why bother show people's faces in the game if they are all in the same room (and you can just look at their expression in real life)? Have I missed a key info or something?

I guess people don't know what fields are.

Anyway, yeah It's interesting to see it, but it would be too much like Super Mario 64.

Hopefully Sakurai can find really good game developers that can please all of the Smash Bros. community, such as developing a fun, crazy game but still have a good, balanced metagame.

Playing this game, while in turn very used to the newer Mario Kart games' control system, is rather disorienting. Trying to move to an item box isn't the same as the newer ones. Overall the game has slippery controls, but still rocks, having awesome tracks which I hope that the next installment of Mario Kart will get.

Bikes are pretty fun, but can get cheap when against karts, especially if the bike user is very good. The items are the ones that can change the game (though not really if only a 1 on 1). I kind of don't mind if bikes make it in this game, but it should be limited to some extent, such as a limited consecutive amount of wheeling or a cool time between wheelings.

This is an instant buy for me, I adore the Mario Kart series. Hope Toadette and Koopa Troopa make it, as well as characters that were never in Mario kart. Tricks as well? They do help with races, somewhat.

Can't wait! hopefully there's more content available. Can't expect much though. . .

Hopefully this one has the Ura Zelda patch thing. The Master Quest may have been Ura Zelda, but probably not fully. Can't wait!
