Retronaut

WayForward is exactly the right choice for this project, and there is little I would like more than an all-new Mega Man game developed by WayForward.

Edit: Anyone who is concerned about WayForward's ability to update a classic game should check out their remake of A Boy and his Blob for Wii which got a 9/10 here on NL.

I'm not certain, but I think free giveaways like this are designed to keep you from finishing the game and then selling it. It's a way to combat the secondary market by keeping the supply of used games low. That way, used copies cost only slightly less than new copies, and a new costumer who wants to buy the game is more likely to go ahead and grab the new one for just a few dollars more instead of buying the used copy ($0 of whose sale would go to Nintendo).

I was thinking about this the other day with regards to the new Mass Effect III multiplayer DLC on the 360. A whole year after release, they're still putting out free additions to the multiplayer (though I think last week was the last one). It seems really clever, but it's got to be pretty expensive to keep giving this stuff away. I guess it's folded into the original purchase price of the game? I think this is worth thinking about some more.

I would pay a few bucks to download the Wreck-It-Ralph arcade game seen in the movie. Why couldn't they just do that?

I would absolutely buy a new DuckTales game. Make it happen, Warren. Make it happen.

This is a previously unannounced Layton title.

I'll probably be picking up a 3DS sometime soon just so that I'll be able to play Miracle Mask. I am very excited about it.

Looks like this one could be interesting... right up there with King of Kong and Chasing Ghosts. Interesting stuff.

That's right around when the Wii launched, so it makes sense to me.

Wow. All these comments and only one Star Wars reference.
Both the image and the text are INTENSELY Star Wars-y. What exactly that means for the game, I have no idea.

@Ian Daemon I had the same thought. Based on the (admittedly vague) timeline presented here (in the last ten years), it might be possible that the Nintendo/Nokia phone turned into the N-Gage. This would be in keeping with another rejected Nintendo product turned failed console: the Phillips CD-i.

I love that the main topic of conversation here seems to be the song.
For the record, I like it.

I'm still more excited for Sonic 4, but I will remain cautiously optimistic about this game. I mean, we can trust Sonic Team, right?

Right?

That Zelda Dance Commercial may be my favorite thing on YouTube.
