I still have my cart. Hope more people buy it now, it's a really cute little game. The VC is getting some games lately with this and Medabots.

This is not what I was expecting. AT ALL. Honestly, kind of disappointed with the style and time period chosen, but there's pretty superficial so I won't make any rash judgements yet.

These rewards are awesome! I was actually pretty upset I didn't make Platinum for the first time since I started using CN but who cares! The gold rewards are awesome for once, Advance Wars and Mario & Luigi! Wish I could have been Platinum for DKC:TF since I've been eyeing that game for awhile, but I won't complain.

@Nintendo_Ninja @GP8 The leaker admitted to creating that fake leak. He just guessed the date right.

This felt more like a summary than a review and didn't really try to sell my on "why" I should pick this up. But I guess it's kind of hard to review something like this since the creator himself said it's difficult to explain this game to someone without them actually playing it.

Makes sense too since they need to announce some good stuff or show off the new Star Fox to make people forget about the Zelda delay.

The amiibos craze is getting... Out of hand..

I love shmups so I'm definitely exicted! I'll looking into it. Glad to see IOS shmups coming to Wii U as I oddly enough don't enjoy Shmups on touch only devices much.

THEYRE COMING TO MY HOMETOWN YOU BET YOUR DONKEY IM GOING!!

@IceClimbers I understand wanting to get players used to the initial game before letting them get into a ranked mode, but why not just have it on disc and let you play it when you reach level 10 instead of this? If you end getting to level 10 kind of quickly or understand the gameplay well we're gonna have to still wait until the developers decided everyone's good enough. And what if the numbers aren't satisfactory like they hope? Do we have to wait longer to get the new modes? It's just purposely with holding content at launch. I'm probably overreacting but I think they could have executed this same idea in a better way.

"Due to the ranking system and overall more competitive feel to Ranked Battle, it will not be available at launch, rather the developers will be keeping a close eye on the number of players and their levels before releasing this mode so as not to put players at a disadvantage due to inexperience. We have been assured that this will only be a few weeks if the numbers are all satisfactory."

Are you effing kidding me?! I swear I hate Nintendo more and more every. Single. Day.

Hopefully Nintendo learns not to do something stupid again like region locking whatever the NX will end up being.

Man, I'm really getting sick of delay news on this game. The $20 price tag kind of stings too. It looks incredible though and I'm gladly going to buy it full price when it finally comes out.

@KingMike FMA was written by Hiromu Arakawa. Square Enix had no involvement with the manga and anime so no. It did get a few games here and there for multiple consoles but it's not the type of series you could keep milking for games.

Nice week! Can we please start putting the price for the titles on sale though?
I'm gonna take advantage of the mighty switch force sales.

@Spoony_Tech I don't blame you I'd do the same if I new about this before hand.

I was tempted to pick this up off the 3D screenshots in the eShop alone. Solid review that really let's you know what to expect. I think I'll definitely get this if it goes on sale.

Lmaoooo!

I'm sorry. I just can't keep sugar coating my hatred for the Wii U anymore. This is the most pathetic console Nintendo has ever produced. Virtual Boy where are you?

PLEASE TELL ME THE ACCOUNT DONT NEED TO BE REGISTERED ALREADY BEFORE YOU DOWNLOAD THE GAME! :{ I would love to have this olliolli on my brother's 3DS since mine is broken.

Are there any eShop games that have this show up but are known to not use amiibos? If there isn't this is practically confirmation. It may just be the other released amiibos but hopefully it gets its own line.

Really sad to hear this. It looks like a charming little game. Like others said, if it ever hits the eShop I'd probably pick it up.

@Shinokami I never said it was good because of gameplay. I said "it's a good game though, I hear." As in despite my opinion of it, I've heard good things about it, so I don't deny the possibility it's a good game, but it's not one I'd have interest in either way as I don't like Sonic's general gameplay style.

@Extremist Actually, you got it backwards. I hate Sonic, so a game trying to emulate it's gameplay like this isn't appealing to me. But I know there's people that have been wanting a game like this since the train wreck Sonic Boom so I'm glad they'll get what they want soon.

@Tabris95 I can see that. Haven't played it so I guess I can't really judge how it plays. I just rewatched Johnny's review on this to refresh my memory and he does also mention Gunstar Heroes and some other Genisis games. Maybe I should actually give it a shot if it goes on sale cheap enough, I'm probably being too hard on it.

I first heard about this from Somecallmjohnny's review. I really dislike it. From what I've seen it looks like an exact Sonic copy and past, not a tribute or "inspired by", and the original stuff it does add in is uninspired or annoying. Not my type of game at all.

It's a good game though I hear so it's great wii u owners will finally get to try it.

The game looks so fun. I don't mind the lack of exclusive Nintendo console content, the main game is amazing enough to warrant purchasing. I'm glad we finally get to play it since I don't have a PS3 or 4!

People need to stop compalingjng and buy Olli Olli.

ONLY $28 DOLLARS?! Looking at the quality this is a very very fair price! I was worried it was going to be like $40. I'm absolutely getting this!

Has Nintendo been bricking systems for using these exploits?

Amazing that this is going to be free. This is one of the best games I've played in years! So glad to know I'll have DLC to keep coming back to for a long while. I love Yacht Club Games. Can't wait for Spectre Knight.

This sale is incredible! I'm been holding out on MSF2 for solo long, I'm gonna probably double dip and get it for Wii U and 3DS. Might even get HD edition. How different are the hyper drive levels than the standard game?

Cool! Glad to hear people liked it. Hope the sequel as smoother animation as a lot of the moving sprites looked really rough to me. I still need to play the first one. Hopefully a big sale comes around soon with this announcement.

Awesome!!! Can't wait I'm so excited to finally get to play this! Day one buy. Now if only Nintendo would include cross saves too. Baby steps but this step is one they need to be smacked in the face for not having if they're finally doing cross buys.

I really do want Virtual Boy games on the 3DS. There's actually some pretty fun ones.

Now if only Starr Mazer could reach its Wii U stretch goal.

HOLY CRAP AXELAY!
BUY IT! BUY IT! BUY IT!

Edit: @JaxonH Except they clearly released one of the best Super Nintendo games to grace the system.

@Punished_Boss_84 Pokemon Shuffle isn't even a main series game, it's a spin-off. Game Freak has stated multiple times they don't want to hide Pokemon behind a pay wall. While you have many valid claims the micro transactions isn't one of them since it's like saying the Zelda CDi games affected the development of every following Zelda. The only DLC Pokemon games have are the event legends which Game Freak already gets heat for with the store tie in events, micro-transactions won't happen in main games.

Bank is annoying but Game Freak plans for it to be available for every following Pokemon game to the point where your future children will be able to use. Storing that massive amount of data and maintaining servers is not going to end up cheap. $5 for the entire year with a grace period for your pokemon to renew if you didn't take them out is fair.

Won't say the Pokemon franchise doesn't have a lot of other decisions to get easy money that can be criticized though.

With Arc System Works working on this km very excited. I was just arguing with someone that the SNES games of this series were great and he said the series was accepted as awful since it never got an entry again. HAH! TAKE THAT!
This HAS to get localized. I need it so bad.

This sounds very interesting! Knowing Nintendo and from the sounds of it, this will be a major missed opportunity though. This implies it will be like the dumb 3 minute demos in Smash. That's a waste. It should have been the full entire VC games that the Amiibo unlocks with limited uses like the demo's, maybe 10 uses.

Also I think there's a mistake here: "Iwata-san has acknowledged that demand has often outstripped demand"

Wow, 25 years already.

But yeah this will never come to America. Fire Emblem is not remotely popular enough. I'm still waiting for the Pokemon Symphony to announce tour dates already.

WHEN THE HECK IS SAKURAI'S WILD RIDE GOING TO END?!

Face looks iffy but otherwise this looks like s great cheap alternative to the Figma.

This looks amazing! Definitely keeping an eye out for it.

Two great Games! Very interested in playing both but MM&B will kind of suck with the screen zoom in despite being on a home console now.
Every one should check out Sonic Advance. That is the true Sonic 4. Not that piece of crap excuse Sega tried to salvage.

Why report on this? Whhhhyyyy

The difference looks pretty small actually. Excited for this.

While this definitely sounds fun and like something I would want to watch, it feels like you can almost get anything funded on Kickstarter if it has a strong nostalgic appeal.

Ugh someone call me when Pokemon Symphonic Evolutions announces tour dates already.

The monster designs are appealing honestly. Doubt it'll be a hit or anything though.

I never bought one of the games but the demo's were very fun and charming. I would absolutely download this. I should really buy one of the game in the mean time.

@JellySplat I feel ya! I hate that too. It gets kind of gross seeing how much of those type of figures are pumped out after awhile.
