@Big_Gamer: See here: Storage: The console will have internal flash memory, as well as the option to expand its memory using either an SD memory card or an external USB hard disk drive.
I still say a game is a game is a game. It's really the more recent generations that have put such an emphasis on "hardcore" and "casual". Still, it would be nice to have a dedicated hardcore platform for the gamers that want it. Nintendo has the brains, the imagination, the ideas, and the skills, but it's only been put into minimal practice.
Hmm.....interesting choice, going from 3D to 2D. They have all that extra memory now, too..... Maybe a possible sequel will be in its original 3D style? Anyway, I'm excited about this, it reminds me of that Flash game Super Mario Sunshine 64.
Pff, what? This sounds.......intriguing, to say the least. Wonder how it'll turn out. Who knows? It may come westward on a limited release, since last time I checked, that Death Note live action movie came out in the west, and that's waaaaaaaaaay more Japanese.
Hmm....I'm not so sure I like this. I mean, it's a great idea, but I'm not sure it's really for me. I'd personally much rather have some 3D sections thrown in.....
@KrazyBean: While you're right in saying the 3DS can't handle the Hedgehog Engine, who says they can't just port the Colors engine over? Or, better yet, build a mobile version of the Hedgehog Engine? Capcom did it with MT Framework, so why not SEGA?
I've actually seen all of these except for The Fight to the Death and Link Takes on Volvagia. I wish Fight to the Death actually happened in the game, that look awesome!
Based on gameplay, the Wii game interests me much more, since that's more of a classic Kirby platformer. I would be lying if I said this didn't sound interesting, though.
@taffy: As I recall, there was sort of a precursor to The Mercenaries in RE2, but RE3 was when it was actually called The Mercenaries. So, technically, if anyone should be in it, it should be Jill, and she is in it.
"The MotionPlus-enhanced Wii Remote Plus has plenty of potential uses: as a sword in Red Steel 2 or Legend of Zelda: Skyward Sword, or any number of sporting events in Wii Sports Resort...."

Re: Kirby's Next Handheld Outing is Kirby: Mass Attack
I really like the name, but the game itself still doesn't interest me that much...
@NintyFan: They kinda had a cameo mention in that last shot with all the game logos on it. Along with Mario Party 9.
Re: Posting Luigi's Mansion 2 Screenshots Makes Us Feel Good
This will be a treat.
Re: Ubisoft Announces Wii U Support with IPs Old and New
Assassin's Creed should be fun, dunno about the others....

Sound fine to me.
Re: Your First Look at the Wii U Console
It's pretty....bland. Well, as long as it has the horsepower to back it up.
Re: Skylanders: Spyro's Adventure is Truly a Multi-Platform Game
That's......actually quite innovative. I wish I could do that with other multiplats....
Re: Nintendo Updates DSiWare to 3DS Transfer List with More Titles
I will now officially be losing nothing. Awesome.
Re: Sony President Thinks 3DS is Just an Updated DS
I feel like we should just have an article catagory called "Controversy" instead of filing this under "News"........
Re: These DSiWare Games Cannot Be Moved to 3DS
I don't own any of those except Flipnote, the browser, and Pro-Putt Domo. Two of those were free, and Domo sucks, so I'm good.
Re: North America, These eShop Games Await You Next Week
I'll probably grab Mario Land, Excitebike, and Pokedex (for no reason )

Re: First BIT.TRIP SAGA Screens Incoming
@Bigrat: Not really, though the aesthetic is sorta the same.
Re: Mutant Mudds Now Launching on the eShop

Re: There's Nothing Sneaky About Snake Eater 3D's 2011 Release
Well, at least we know it's still in development.
On a semi-unrelated note, Kojima is probably one of the most stylish Japanese game designers I've ever seen. Just look at those duds.
Re: Heroes of Ruin Details Start Trickling In
Sounds like it could be quite a good collaboration. Drop-in/drop-out online co-op with voice chat? Color me interested.
Re: Review: 99Bullets (DSiWare)
Sounds like a really cool, pretty fresh take on the shmup genre. I may have to look into it. Nice review, Corbie.
Re: Firebrand Games Would Love to Develop an F-Zero Game
If they can make F-Zero anything like some of the crazy things you can make in Trackmania, then by all means, go for it!
Re: Zelda's Timeline is Simple In the Hands of Dr Emmett Brown
That was.....just.....
Re: Capcom Announces Live Action Ace Attorney Movie
Pff, what? This sounds.......intriguing, to say the least. Wonder how it'll turn out. Who knows? It may come westward on a limited release, since last time I checked, that Death Note live action movie came out in the west, and that's waaaaaaaaaay more Japanese.
Re: Nintendo Download: 27th May 2011 (Europe)
Wait, Ikaruga and F-Zero? I am so sole when FAST comes to America.
Re: Disney Universe to Blend Worlds on Wii This Fall
Kingdom Hearts without the Final Fantasy. Oh, and their all in costumes. I wanna play as the actual characters, is that so much to ask!?
Re: This Zelda: Ocarina 3D Trailer Would Make a Great Advert
Kinda reminds me of Sean Connery.....
Re: Sonic Generations 3DS Mixes 16-bit and Rush Gameplay
Hmm....I'm not so sure I like this. I mean, it's a great idea, but I'm not sure it's really for me. I'd personally much rather have some 3D sections thrown in.....

Re: Sonic Generations 3DS & New Shinobi Title Confirmed
So.......much.......epic......!
Re: Rumour: Sega and Griptonite Working on Shinobi 3DS
Huh, been a while since Shinobi has popped up with a game. Could be fun.
Re: You Must See These Nano Assault 3DS Screenshots
Wow......Shin'en really knows their way around graphics tech. Looks like it could be interesting, maybe sort of an updated Life Force.
Re: High Voltage Responds Badly to Scathing Conduit 2 Review
Wooooooow. This is.........entertaining.....? Maybe? Oh, who am I kidding, I love it.
Re: Nintendo Download: 23rd May 2011 (North America)
Oh, cool, I lost my Puzzle Quest cartridge. I may pick this version up if it isn't too stripped down, which I can't imagine it being.
Re: Tatsunoko vs. Capcom Sequel Unlikely to Hit the Wii
Uh...but doesn't Rival Schools play more or less like a precursor to vs. Capcom games, anyway? What could they do with that?
Re: Tatsunoko vs. Capcom Sequel Unlikely to Hit the Wii
As long as it gets a sequel, period, I'm good. That game is brilliant arcade goodness.
Re: Feast Your Eyes on Zelda: Ocarina of Time Artwork
I've actually seen all of these except for The Fight to the Death and Link Takes on Volvagia. I wish Fight to the Death actually happened in the game, that look awesome!
Re: Sonic Generations 3DS Rumours Gain Speed
@shinobi88: Okay, okay, we get your point. You don't gotta be a d*ck about it.
Re: Barry Burton Rounds Off The Mercenaries 3D Cast Members
He'll be the best character. Why? Because he has THIS.
Re: Sonic Generations 3DS Rumours Gain Speed
Whoa....I've never seen such a multi-topic'd comment thread. I'll just give my input rundown.
Got it? Because I'm NOT REPEATING IT!
Re: Kirby's New DS Game Has a July Date with Japan
Based on gameplay, the Wii game interests me much more, since that's more of a classic Kirby platformer. I would be lying if I said this didn't sound interesting, though.
Re: Nintendo and Best Buy Team Up for Exclusive 3DS Content
Cool, I'll actually be near a Best Buy that day.
Re: UK Pre-Orders Bag a Gold Sleeve and Poster for Ocarina 3D
Not nearly as astoundingly awesome as the Grece pre-order, but still cool. Hopefully America gets something soon?

@taffy: As I recall, there was sort of a precursor to The Mercenaries in RE2, but RE3 was when it was actually called The Mercenaries. So, technically, if anyone should be in it, it should be Jill, and she is in it.
Re: Ubisoft Goes Out on a Limb to Bring Rayman Origins to Wii
Very nice Ubisoft. I'll be sure to look into this.
Re: First 3DS Screenshots Escape From The Abyss
Looks a little jaggy, but nothing I can't live with. Plus, it's portable Tales that's actually being released overseas! What's not to love?
Re: Nintendo Announces eShop Update for 6th June
@Hardy83: Pessimistic much?
Re: Wii Play Motion Screens Show Spooks, Stones and Lots of Smiles
"The MotionPlus-enhanced Wii Remote Plus has plenty of potential uses: as a sword in Red Steel 2 or Legend of Zelda: Skyward Sword, or any number of sporting events in Wii Sports Resort...."
.....like, you know, swordplay.
Re: Ace Combat Flies Into the 3DS Danger Zone
Sounds awesome. Flying at sound barrier breakneck speeds in 3D? You bet.
Re: DSi Firmware Gets an Update
Alright, I'll get this update just in case it really is for said transfer.
Re: News Report Reveals Resi Evil: Mercenaries 3D's Release Date
Wait, Chambers was the one with the Flame Spray melee, right? Frick yeah.
Re: Start Your Engines for FAST - Racing League's Release Date
I may look into this. Art of Balance and Jett Rocket are both quite good games.
@moosa: Nice in-engine screenshots. Jett Rocket looked just as good as it's screenshots, and just take a look at those.
Re: Nintendo Confirms E3 2011 Conference Details
@Merfairy: It's usually at http://e3.nintendo.com/
...or something similar.
Re: Nintendo Confirms E3 2011 Conference Details
@jayjay99: Usually you can watch it on the channel G4, but it usually isn't included in standard television packages.
Re: Nintendo Confirms E3 2011 Conference Details
Sounds like a plan. And personally Corbs, I prefer Skittles.
Also, I'm liking the new tabs on top.
