Dracula X is not a port. Companies couldn't port TG-16 games, so Konami remade Dracula X. Are all Castlevania games with Simon Belmont ”ports” of the original Castlevania. Anyway, looking forward to downloading it and retiring my CIB copy.
So some some social media relations intern for Koei Tecmo who probably doesn't know much outside of a general release schedule tweets something vague and this place runs with it "as all but confirms Fatal Frame Wii U as Japan-Only?" Wow, at least some other people realized the foolishness in this too. "As far as we know" is slightly one step above "we don't know" on the clueless scale.
@Damo: I suppose it is new news if you look at it depending on who is actually saying it at the time. Oh well, maybe people didn't catch this information previously or forgot about it so in that case it's good Miyamoto reiterated it. Puts the game in the spotlight, though briefly, which I guess isn't a bad thing.
"(a precedent that would largely be ignored, as later games would let her remove the suit at will)." No game exists in the timeline post Fusion. I see @Shire noticed this as well.
I played it on the PS3, which was supposedly improved if I remember correctly. Actually it was the Inferno version, I remember now. It was ok, better than all other versions.

Re: Nintendo Confirms Final Week Details For Its Super Smashing eShop Sale
Don't understand the love for Pikmin 3, just started playing it and I am not really fan of it.
I will get the Kirby Wii U VC games though.
Re: Two Castlevania Classics Confirmed for Wii U Virtual Console Débuts
Sweet, I will get both.
@cbkummer: Because the Wii U doesn't have TG-16 games, yet anyway.

Re: Nintendo Download: 18th September (North America)
Yeh Wild Guns and soon to be Yeh, Dracula X!
Re: Sonic Boom: Rise Of Lyric Speeds To Earlier Release Date On Wii U
I suspect this game will not sell all that well. Previews have not been too kind.
Re: Review: Hyrule Warriors (Wii U)
@Waveboy: You were never going to get this anyway. In fact, do you even use your Wii U or are you still watching Saved by The Bell classics?
Re: First 4 Figures Unveils Running Mega Man Collectibles
Lots of complaints about the face, on their "Face"book too. These guys better look at changing the face. No one likes it.
Re: Review: Mega Man 7 (Wii U eShop / Super Nintendo)
Can't wait to get around to this one, sometime in the near future.
Re: Review: Hyrule Warriors (Wii U)

I hope the CD-i games get included this time!
Re: Nintendo Confirms Week Two Details for Super Smashing eShop Sale
Nice, will pick up X2, Minish Cap, and Kid Icarus
Re: Game Schedule Outlined for Nintendo Treehouse Live Broadcast
I will be glad when Smash is out and Nintendo will have to finally move on to something else.
Re: NES-Themed Nintendo 3DS XL On The Way as GameStop Exclusive
I would almost bite on one of these if it weren't for a new 3DS version being announced.
Re: Watch Dogs Wii U Release Dates Confirmed
Never heard of it...
Re: Yokai Watch 2 Back at Number One in Japan - Wii U Sales Remain Average, 3DS Drops
Well, Hyrule Warriors had a nice run while it lasted in Japan.

This game looks fantastic, hope it gets released on the Wii U soon!

Oh noes, I cannot get the stupid ugly scarf!
Re: Rock Zombie Is Bringing Hard Rock And Side-Scrolling Combat Action To The Wii U
Love me some beat 'em ups so I will keep my eye on this.
Re: The Wonderful 101 Gets a Wonderful Soundtrack Release
I really like Kamiya, he seems like one of the few developers that truly does care about the fans. I still have to pick this game up though. .
Re: Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS Will Support The New 3DS C-Stick, But Not The Circle Pad Pro
3DS users get the shaft while Wii U owners have a plethora of control options.
Re: From the Forum: To Buy or Not to Buy? SPIKEY WALLS Fires Debate as Developer Defends Project
The video game crash of the mid 80's had nothing on all the shovelware of today. Luckily, we only pay $1-$2 for crap this time.
Re: September's Club Nintendo Reward Details Are Confirmed
Kirby for "only" 200 coins (same price as Mario Bros.), I'll take it!
Re: Nintendo of America Unleashes Wii U Game Sizzle Reel
Zelda in 2015, yeah right...
Re: Nintendo Confirms amiibo Launch Range of 12 Figurines
Unless these actually serve a useful purpose for me, I'm not interested.

I may actually have to get his game now...
Re: Xenoblade Chronicles Coming to 3DS in Japan
"Feel the power of the Monado!" Oh my, I may need to get this. Xenoblade on the Wii was just amazing.

Re: Wii U Shooter Splatoon Almost Starred Mario As The Main Character
@Damo: No Miyamoto didn't mention it, instead it was the game developers telling us Splatoon almost starred mario as the main character around E3.
Splatoon Interview – It Couldn't Be Mario, It Had To Be Squids
Nintendolife reporting on the Game Informer article: Developers Outline The Creative Process for Crafting Splatoon as a New IP, Working Towards Retail Release
Re: Wii U Shooter Splatoon Almost Starred Mario As The Main Character
Old news is old. We heard this during E3.
Re: Nintendo Confirms Two More Virtual Console Titles Coming in the Next Week
Glad to see Capcom stepping it with classics they didn't release on the Wii.
Re: That Shocking Pokémon Announcement Was Arcade Fighter Pokkén Tournament
If this comes to the Wii U it would be first my Pokemon game I ever buy.
Re: Somebody At Ubisoft Really Doesn't Like Mario Kart 8's Mercedes-Benz DLC
Ubisoft should have kept that up.

"(a precedent that would largely be ignored, as later games would let her remove the suit at will)." No game exists in the timeline post Fusion. I see @Shire noticed this as well.
Re: Talking Point: A Virtual Console Revival Could Be Just a Pricing Revolution Away
Agree with those that are saying just offere more discounts on VC titles. I would like to see the Europe Smash sales coming over to NA.
Re: Alone In The Dark is Set for Yet Another Comeback
I played it on the PS3, which was supposedly improved if I remember correctly. Actually it was the Inferno version, I remember now. It was ok, better than all other versions.
