"World War II cost the lives of millions, but this game will only set you back $9.99 USD / €9.99 / £8.99 at launch."

That's an unspeakably crass and abhorrent thing to write. You've just lost a long time reader.

@Racthet916 Look what they all did to the Rabbids game, that thing was dead in the water before it was even given a chance to swim.

@Zach You're saying you'd enjoy it more than The Pirates of Penzance?

@Moon That stuck me as a little queer too. But I'm looking at it from a western perspective. Eastern cultures certainty seem to have a much more accepting approach to death than the west do.

@ReshiramZekrom "success?"

Beautiful gesture and a deserved one given the size of the man.

Iwata's passing was such a loss to the creative world; I just hope he can see how well his console is doing from which ever cloud he's resting on.

@Hughesy Do yourself a favour and download it, I haven't played since 4U but it's a brilliant way to waste 20 mins on a hunt.

It's better to have played and lost than to never have played at all.

Having a blast with it so far. The silly heart in me hopes Capcom is tracking downloads by IP address or something similar to see demand for this demo worldwide, but we all know it's unlikely MH:XX is going to see a western release.

(Sigh) Import it is then...

Looks like those idiots who were ordering multiple consoles will get theirs cancelled, brilliant news!

@Alikan plus the way the Wii U went wasn't exactly the best way to advertise to prospective new devs.

With the money this will take to fund there is no way they will turn up with just MK and 1-2.

On a side note, shame there's no Liverpool!

@crimsontadpoles iirc doesn't Yo-Kai sell like hot cakes in Japan but elsewhere is pretty slow mover? Whether they decide this or a more established series outside of JPN it will tell us a lot about the direction nintendo are taking.

"Overall, Pokémon: Magikarp is a fascinating package. It has great style, but it severely lacks in gameplay." Is it not one giant conceit for the best Pokemon in the world Magikarp?

Considering the Splatoon updates were splatacular I can only envisage the same for the ARMS updates. I'm sold after that announcement!

@Laxeybobby I'm only a stones throw away in Liverpool! Surely if you put the feelers out by asking your local game store to promote a club/event in their store or on social media they would happily oblige.

P.s. cant wait for the TT

@nab1 its low cost yes, but the margins were so slight, aparently £2, and with an imediate ceiling and no upscalability in terms of additional software there's little sense, in terms of economics anyway, to keep pushing it out.

Good god these look very tasty!

@SLIGEACH_EIRE What, you mean to print even less this time?

@BLP_Software If they increase the console's battery life then they are great but if they only increase the controllers then that's where they become pointless. I've never ran out of battery using the joycons detached, nor do I know anyone who has.

Would be interesting if they released a 3ds to go with it like fates LE.

WHERE'S THE GAMCUBE ADAPTOR AND CONTROLLER!!!!!

Seriously tho, I found the most difficult thing was how long it took him to be cajoled into believing it was a real gift. You know the worlds taken a hold of you when you question a gift; we are not born cynical but we sure as hell end up it.

@Koniec Why are you replying then? Internet people are wholly an odd bunch...

@Solid_Stannis They can't be that tiny then.
