Yeah, that's definitely a factor. But I'd say that the sale figures released today kind of prove that Pokemon and Mario are still relevant characters to society. Seeing as the best selling titles for the Wii U and 3DS are Mario and Pokemon games.
Good point. I'm just curious to see how Activision would respond to this. Because I think kids would prefer Mario and Pokemon toys over some random creatures. Ya know? And Parents can only spend so much money, so kids would probably pick the Nintendo figurines over the Skylander ones.
Well I mean this could be a serious contender to Skylanders, and could possibly take a HUGE chunk of interest away from the series. Nintendo has always dominated the Kart Racing genre but Activision right now dominates the Toy-game market. This could be a threat to their throne. Just saying...
But I do think this is a good decision business-wise. It only makes me wonder though, how will Activision react to this? Will they drop support for Wii U to spite Nintendo for cutting in to their territory.
@JaxonH This is just such a waste of a collaboration. That's what I'm saying. Hyrule Warriors won't score any higher than a 7, which is sub-par. And it's a shame.
Oh boy, poor Wii U. It was dead on arrival once Pikmin 3 got delayed and Rayman became multiplat. Also the lack of Minecraft and good marketing also contributed to this failure of a console.
If it was a legit fighting game, made by a third-party I'm guessing, I'd really love it to be Cyber-Connect who made the awesome Naruto games and Asura's wrath. Anyway, I really don't understand the negativity in here. Yikes.
Baby Rosetta? I think you meant Baby Rosalina. Gosh, video game journalists I tell ya. So unprofessional. IGN suffers the same problem, they release articles without spell checking.
So the consensus is that this game is average. Meh, that's disappointing, being a huge Kirby fan...I'll save my $40 for something else. No thank you Nintendo.
Nintendo needs indies the most right now, especially since the third parties are completely not supporting the Wii U. I say the way things run at Nintendo need to be changed. #FireIwata
Knowing NIntendo, they'd be really good and fair about DLC in the beginning but once they see how many people love DLC, they'll take it too far. Especially with games like Mario.
@MAB But what about A Link Between Worlds, Kid Icarus, Resident Evil, Smash Bros., Shin Megami Tensei 4, and more!!! There's something for everyone on 3ds!
Apprently everyone besides NintendoLife says this game is either average or mediocre...hhmmmm. I'm wondering if I should still get it. I'll go watch videos I suppose...
I've been banned 4 times. I went into the Zelda community and said "Zelda loves deku nuts" The other three times 12 year olds reported me over disagreements about characters in Smash.

The game was meh. They need Sonic Adventure 3, not freaking Sonic Boom.
Re: Masahiro Sakurai Releases Awesome Super Smash Bros. Dragoon Screens
Smash ain't no joke! Every time I see this game, I get sad that it's so far away...

I believe this is free on PS plus this month, so if you have that don't blow your money on the Wii U version.
Otherwise, buy this awesome game!

@Action51
I think he's talking about the lack of games...I don't really have that problem though. Some people don't like ALL of the games Wii U has to offer.

Can't wait to get this on my 3DS! I freaking love MH!

Re: Hyrule Warriors Set for Summer 2014 Release in Japan, Tecmo Koei Teases Another Major Collaboration
@JaxonH
There is a such thing as a educated guess. And let's be honest, my guess is the most likely.

Re: Hyrule Warriors Set for Summer 2014 Release in Japan, Tecmo Koei Teases Another Major Collaboration
@JaxonH Because
1: Tecmo Koei recently have been pumping out nothing but shovelware.
2: The Dynasty Warriors series is sub-par.
Re: Feature: Nintendo's Smash Bros. Invitational Could Be Just The Beginning For Contests and eSports
I love watching competitive Smash on Twitch. It's pretty awesome.
Re: Hyrule Warriors Set for Summer 2014 Release in Japan, Tecmo Koei Teases Another Major Collaboration
Please, no more collaborations with Tecmo Koei Nintendo...please.
Hyrule Warriors is set to be the worst Wii U exclusive of 2014 no doubt.

Re: Mario Kart 8 Club Nintendo Promotion Offers a Free Wii U Game
Once again the Brits get better deals... this happened with the 3DS, now it's happening with the Wii U.
Re: Mario Kart 8 Club Nintendo Promotion Offers a Free Wii U Game
I'm hoping that this bundle moves at least 1 million units for Wii U but if Nintendo ain't going to market it until the Fall what's the f-ing point?

Re: Nintendo Confirms The Mario Kart 8 Premium Pack – Special Edition Wii U Hardware Bundle
@GamerOZO I've just come to terms with reality, nothing can save the Wii U at this point.
Re: Review: Mario Golf: World Tour (3DS)
Damn! Score pending! Now I'm going to hsve to wait to buy this.
Re: Nintendo Confirms The Mario Kart 8 Premium Pack – Special Edition Wii U Hardware Bundle
Eh, I'd like to say this will help Wii U, but knowing Nintendo the marketing will be weak, and the Wii U will still be doomed.
Re: Talking Point: Nintendo Must Take Careful Steps Into Paid DLC and Free-to-Play
Knowing NIntendo, they'd be really good and fair about DLC in the beginning but once they see how many people love DLC, they'll take it too far. Especially with games like Mario.
