I disagree. It would take no effort at all to put out official NES games on iOS and they would literally lose nothing. Super Mario Bros. has been out for years and is easily available to everyone on multiple platforms. Super Mario Bros. being on iOS wouldn't negatively affect peoples decisions in purchasing Nintendo hardware, if anything it would encourage them to explore the world of Nintendo. They're missing out on millions of dollars and it's quite idiotic to blatantly ignore this gap in the market.

The graphics look very inconsistent. Hopefully it'll look better at release.

Personally, this is a 9/10 for me. I don't understand where all the hate came from.

It's just Jonathan Ross showing off his gaming rig. Nothing special.

BRB committing suicide.

Achievements would be awesome. Very awesome.

"and a brand new graphical style"

Am I the only one that found this amusing?

I haven't seen a single bad review for Mecho Wars. Gamespot gave it an 8.5/10, and Slide to play gave it a 4/4.

@OverlordMao: I think you'll find that Sonic 1 and 2 on the Master System were very well received by fans and critics. Also, they aren't ports. They're original games.

It shares a ROUNDED OFF score with a bunch of other games. The actual aggregate score is 97.8 or something. It's not the second highest rated game of all time. It is literally 6th.

No games I want have come out for a while, and I'm not paying full price for Splinter Cell. So there you go.

VG Chartz estimates say it's sold about 70-80,000 units in Europe. Pretty good opening to say it's largely a Japan only series.

@Oregano: Mecho Wars can't release until it's rated by the ESRB, which will be whenever they feel like it.

Best controls in a Mario game ever.

And so the world finally realised that the reason people own Nintendo hardware is to play Nintendo software.

@postmanX3: From what I know, it has reworked graphics and possibly more challenge maps/missions.

It doesn't matter what price they make it, as it will always cost too much when you can get the original for free.

@EdEN: I'm pretty sure the price is going to be 500 points.

I'm honestly looking forward to this game more than Galaxy 2, Other M and even Zelda. Pikmin 2 was amazing, and I've had to go cold turkey for six years. I need my Pikmin fix.

We all know Nintendo like to over emphasise things. Remember when the amazing hardcore gamer announcement at E3 was Animal Crossing Wii?

Yea...don't expect much. Maybe galaxy 2 playable and a Pokémon announcement.

Obviously it's coming out on Nintendo Wii, or Nintendo Life wouldn't have bothered to report on it in the first place. I'm guessing the leaks are based on that, the fact the game is a Sonic 1 prequel, and some misc information on recurring places/zones from the sonic universe.

I bet the Wii software divide goes a little something like this;

Games with "Wii" in the title - 30%
First Party Nintendo Games - 20%
3rd Party Shovelware Games - 40%
Traditional 3rd Party Games - 10%

@pixelman: As lovely as that sounds, they're probably just cutting production of games that aren't selling high numbers in order to save money.
