How ridiculous. Now we can't even send PRIVATE messages to our own friends. Does this mean the ditching of friend codes and Miiverse is coming real soon? If not, I'm going to be pissed.
See, if they had a REAL account system and online infrastructure on the 3DS, they could just ban these idiots instead of ruining it for the rest of us. This shouldn't happen in 2013, but it's Nintendo, so I'm not surprised, just frustrated.
Agreed. It's a joke. Why does Nintendo think anybody wants to buy these early crappy NES games, for $5 no less? We probably won't get N64 and GBA games until next year.
Capcom should be fortunate they have Monster Hunter, Resident Evil, and Street Fighter. They have less of a chance to go the way of THQ before the end of the decade.
@thesilverbrick Yes, that should do pretty well. The Wii U is in a really bad spot and it really could've used a game like DKC:TF. Third party support is going down the drain and Nintendo delaying one of their big titles isn't going to instill confidence into publishers or even consumers. I like my Wii U, but Nintendo has made so many mistakes with it.
SMH at a lot of you people. Nintendo doesn't seem to care to make a new Metroid. Might as well let some other devs fill the shoes. I'm always up for a Metroidvania.
Not this crap again. I guess we have get on our knees and beg for it. Completely dishonest on their part. There's no point in releasing it if it's going to be a late port.
@SCAR392 Okay? We're talking about high prices on digital downloads. Nintendo prices EVERYONE of their first party games on the e-shop at the same price at retail, at least in the U.S. It's terrible. Sony and Microsoft do it with their consoles, too. So don't act like I'm defending Sony. I only brought up Vita game prices as an example. Oh, and speaking of memory, you know the deluxe Wii U only comes with a paltry 32 GB? You're going to need a $70-100 500 GB External HDD, if you're going all digital. I don't have a Vita, and the overpriced, proprietary memory cards is one of the reasons I don't own one. And I also don't buy digital Wii U games either, for the reasons I've already stated.

Re: Sonic The Hedgehog 2 Is Spin-Dashing To The 3DS eShop On October 8th
Shame it couldn't make the original September release, but I'm really excited for this to come out. Day 1 download for me.
Re: Mario Tennis: Ultra Smash Will Be Served Up in North America on 20th November
I thought Mario Golf for 3DS was great, but this looks like such an average and forgettable effort.
Re: Nintendo Attempts to Show the Fun Side of Animal Crossing: amiibo Festival as amiibo Bundles Are Confirmed
The amiibo look cool, but I have zero interest in the game.
Re: SEGA and M2 Are Happy to Continue 3D Classics "Indefinitely if Sales Are Good"
Just give me Sonic 3 & Knuckles after this and then I'll be happy.
Re: Miyamoto: Nintendo Has Unfinished Business With Super Mario Galaxy Series
Cool. Maybe a Galaxy HD Collection too?
Re: Nintendo Confirms That Miiverse on 3DS Won't Allow Friend Requests or User Messaging
One step forwards, two steps back. Ugh.

Re: Year of Luigi Commemorative Coin Emerges On European Club Nintendo
The NA Club Nintendo rewards are pathetic right now. Hopefully we get this.
Re: Review: Sonic Lost World (Wii U)
The reviews are all over the place. Hopefully the demo comes to the eshop soon so I can see for myself if the mechanics and difficulty are bothersome.
Re: Pokémon X & Y Sells Out in Japan Before It Even Launches
@OdnetninAges Haha well done. I'm really excited for X and Y. I have my pre-order in.
Re: Video: Dixie Kong Struts Her Stuff in This New Donkey Kong Country: Tropical Freeze Trailer
Too bad we have to wait until February.
Re: Assassin's Creed IV DLC Looks Set to Sail Past Wii U
No DLC for the Wii U version? I for one, am SHOCKED.
Re: Capcom Europe To Axe More Than Half Its Workforce Due To Major Restructuring
Capcom should be fortunate they have Monster Hunter, Resident Evil, and Street Fighter. They have less of a chance to go the way of THQ before the end of the decade.
Re: Pokémon X & Y Pre-Orders Set 3DS Record in Japan
Just 9 more days...
Re: Donkey Kong Country: Tropical Freeze Delayed Until Early 2014
@thesilverbrick Yes, that should do pretty well. The Wii U is in a really bad spot and it really could've used a game like DKC:TF. Third party support is going down the drain and Nintendo delaying one of their big titles isn't going to instill confidence into publishers or even consumers.

Re: Donkey Kong Country: Tropical Freeze Delayed Until Early 2014
It's amazing how ill-prepared Nintendo was for HD development. The Wii U is screwed this holiday season.
Re: Atlus Slashes 10 Bucks Off Soul Hackers and Etrian Odyssey IV Again
@Jahir That's probably because it's a permanent price cut. Hopefully there's some clarification.
Re: Atlus Slashes 10 Bucks Off Soul Hackers and Etrian Odyssey IV Again
They said price cut, not sale, so hopefully it's a permanent drop.
Re: Review: Star Wars Pinball (3DS eShop)
Yeah, I'll stick with the PS3, Vita and Wii U versions.
Re: New Sonic Lost World Trailer Reveals A Slight Delay to North American Release
Darn, but I can wait.

I'm hyped.
Re: Soapbox: Why Grand Theft Auto V Isn't For Me
Okay? Your loss. It's a shame it isn't on Wii U.

I can't wait to pick this up.
Re: Jools Watsham Offers to Help Create a 3DS Version of Mighty No. 9
That would be awesome.
Re: Mega Man Creator Keiji Inafune Working On Spiritual Successor Mighty No. 9
Wow, it's already up to $1.05 Million. It seems really likely we'll get console versions. I'd also buy a 3DS version if Renegade Kid gets to make it.
Re: Review: Rayman Legends (Wii U)

Re: Review: Rayman Legends (Wii U)
My wallet is ready. I'm so hyped for this.
Re: Layton 7 is Announced, and Looks Like Quite a Departure
Not sure what to think...
Re: GameStop Accused of Re-Printing Xenoblade Chronicles, Then Selling as "Used" For $90
It's Gamestop. It's not surprising.
Re: Iwata Asks Interview With Hideki Kamiya Explores His Development Process
@Azooooz I agree.
Re: Review: Art Academy: SketchPad (Wii U eShop)
@Sceptic Okay.
Re: Review: SteamWorld Dig (3DS eShop)
Without a doubt my next e-shop purchase.
Re: Ghost Song: A Journey of Hope Could Come to Wii U if Kickstarter Stretch Goal is Met
SMH at a lot of you people. Nintendo doesn't seem to care to make a new Metroid. Might as well let some other devs fill the shoes. I'm always up for a Metroidvania.
Re: Out Now: Pikmin 3 Finally Lands in North America
I'm loving every minute of it so far. Definitely worth the delay.
Re: Dan Adelman: Nintendo's Got "A Whole Bunch More" Coming to the Wii U eShop this Holiday
Good to hear.
Re: Looks Like Batman: Arkham Origins Isn't Getting Online Play On Wii U
Well now it has no chance of selling well. Definitely not worth a $60 purchase.
Re: Plotting Murder in Ace Attorney: Dual Destinies
I'm still disappointed that there's no physical release, but I can't wait to play it.
Re: North America, It Looks Like You'll Have The Black 3DS XL Soon Enough
Finally. I can't believe it's taken this long.
Re: Review: Pikmin 3 (Wii U)
Day One.

Good read. Can't wait for Pirate's Curse.
Re: Nintendo Direct Mini Reveals SEGA 3D Classics on the Way to Europe
Why no NA?
Re: New 3DS eShop App Brings Voice and Text Chat to Japan
What? This should be free or way cheaper. Text and voice chat is a standard feature the 3DS should've had in the first place.
Re: Pikmin 3 Causes Wii U Sales Growth In Japan
Anticipated game causes spike in sales? Shocking! I'm very excited for Pikmin 3.
Re: 3DS UK Success in 2013 Offset by Abysmal Wii U Figures
This is what happens when you don't release games for the system.
Re: Etrian Odyssey Untold: The Millennium Girl Release Date Confirmed for North America
Why can't I hold all these 3DS games!?
