@rjejr: I love reading your posts but you are already knew that. It's amazing that that Wii U is still (trying) to sell for $300.00. Speaking of $300.00 you know you can get a 500GB PS4 for $300.00 on Black Friday so when are you going to be a multi curent-gen console owner?
Thanks goodness Nintendo has the most loyal fan$ in the world.
@rjejr: Nintendo consoles may initially cost a little less but they definitively make you pay over the lifetime of the console with their lack of deals. Their profit percentage must be so much higher than Sony's and Microsoft's.
@rjejr: How about those prices for Nintendo's old games? I was ok with it for awhile but Sony and Microsoft have spoiled me now. They don't even give you $5.00 back for spending $50.00 anymore. Come to think of it, they don't give you any type of credit for having the pleasure of buying things at high prices.
“…with Super Mario Maker it shows you how magical it is to create levels with that Gamepad. It's so easy and intuitive.” Nobody is buying a Wii U, especially now, to create magic.
“…we are continuing to show the promise of the Gamepad and, candidly, early on we probably didn't showcase the promise of the Gamepad as well as we could have.” Glad you guys finally figured out to showcase a dying system.
“As developers have gotten more comfortable with the technology, now you're seeing games that really leverage the power of the Gamepad. I think that will invite people to take a second look at Wii U.” No other developers outside Nintendo funded ones are getting comfortable with your technology and people have taken 2nd and probably 3rd looks and still said nope.
“I think those types of experiences may help us propel the system to new heights.” And I think you are dreaming.
@rjejr: Perfect, and when they want to "redo" Starfox again for the NX, they can name it StarFox X since they are using Zero this time for the U. After X thoughm I'm not sure what would really work.
@anders190: I don't think Nintendo would be interested in making a collection of this type of value. They would rather do minimal work with the games and sell them for $5-$10 a pop.
@TheLastLugia: The real question is, how many people who own an Xbox One are not going to buy this game? Looking on amazon.com right now, the current best selling video game (updated hourly) is Rare Replay only behind Playstation Store gift cards. http://www.amazon.com/best-sellers-video-games/zgbs/videogames
@Sabrewing: Wizards and Warriors series may be owned (partially??) by "Throwback Entertainment" which purchased Acclaim. I hope whoever owns it, somehow the trilogy gets released by DLC,Rare Replay 2, etc..
Fun Fact: Xbox One will have more N64 games available on the console than the Wii U.
I'm glad Microsoft bought Rare, Nintendo would have charge me a fortune for these games with their "premium pricing." Well that is, if they would have actually released them on the V.C. at all. We certainly would not have got the improvements and unlockables.
To all those playing Rare Replay tomorrow along with me
The equivalent to the Wii Mini for the Wii U? Much too little, for way to late. At least the Wife can use this for Nextflix though. Are they still calling it a "premium pack" though? 32GB... lol I agree with you that this should of a been a launch pack-in game for the Wii U.
@TheLastLugia: Hey dude, I have had every home Nintendo console since the NES except for the Gamecube. I grew up on the NES and the SNES is my favorite system of all time. I have been enjoying Nintendo for many years so go a head and call me a "Nintendo hater" despite me having a super sexy Nintendo collection. I have been a fan of Nintendo, just not the Nintendo of today.
@arnoldlayne83: And hahaha, to your comments! Sadly, I was once a "Wii U only" owner and felt some of the pain these guys went through. But once you get another option (PS4, XBO, or a good P.C.) you realize how limited it is to be a Nintendo only owner is.
Thankful that Microsoft wont be charging Nintendo prices to play the games on Rare Replay. Also, it would take forever for the games to actually come out to the V.C. Yooka-Laylee will be a nice swan song for the Wii U but I will get it for the X1 to go along with the other "Rare games."
@rjejr: Yeah, I'm going to get a Wii Mini so I can play Disaster Day of Crisis & Project Zero 2: Wii Edition in spite of Reggie thinking it was not a good idea to publish them in the U.S.A. In 30 years we will still making jokes and bout the Mini and it will still be at Target for 99.99. What about the Wii Mini and Wii U, beyond some really good exclusive games, hasn't been baffling? You know, it is quite relaxing relegating a Nintendo console to 2nd console zone.
Good thing we have NoA and some NoA loyalists here "saving" us from this game. Thank you, thank you for looking out for us. What would we ever do without you?
@Lizuka: "You don't tell us what you'd like, we'll tell you what you'd like!" Exactly, that sentiment is the major reason why I'm spending my money with the other guys.
@Ninstarkof: Yes, I am saying that 3rd parties know their games will not sell well on Nintendo consoles. I hope the NX is as powerful as the PS4 so everyone will see that 3rd Parties are not going to be coming rushing back to Nintendo.

Re: Nintendo Not Looking To Churn Out Yearly Sequels To Its Core Franchises, Feels DLC Keeps Games Feeling Fresh
I would hope Nintendo wouldn't annualize the franchises. They have to many IP's to focus on instead of redoing the same one's.
