Snagrio

Kid Icarus for me, since I'll get the discount for already having it on my Wii menu.

Oh the irony.

Pikmin isn't nearly as big of a seller as Mario or Zelda, so this is hardly surprising. Still disappointing though.

Is there will be DLC, free or otherwise, I'll buy all of it!

I love it. No gloom and doom talk, no debating, no number crunching, just some good ol' fun.

Why would we get a code for 5 Euros?

And this deal isn't nearly as good as the 30% discount one.

Wha...? I think my mom might like this game though.

This is rather ironic...

I actually find this really fascinating. Great wars are talked about throughout the Zelda games, but you don't ever really see any (for obvious reasons), so it's rather cool to see something like this.

@luisesteban I know right? I'm American and even I don't know why we call a sport football when it mostly involves hands.

By this point I'm getting suspicious. Both Pit and now Chrom's voice actors have been asked about Smash Bros. and (understandably) both didn't quite answer the question directly. Pit is in the game now, but we haven't heard him utter a sound yet, which is interesting. If Matthew hasn't been approached about reprising his role yet, I think he will soon.

Wow, it must be great having the big three practically pandering for your game.

The only reason I'd buy one would be to flip it for triple the price.

Capcom, do us all a favor and sell Mega Man to Nintendo so he can get the respect he deserves.

What? Not 10/10? By all the praise and downright worship this game gets I'm surprised to see it score a 9.

Erm, wasn't this announced like a couple months ago? Whatever, at least I can finish those darn puzzles a little easier soon.

Great! Except I'm American.

And yet millions will still buy all these games since they have the two things they care about most in gaming: fancy graphics and gory violence.

Looks like Nintendo,
/puts on sunglasses
is starting a U-turn.

YYYEEEAAAAHHHH!!!!

It's like what we've been saying all along, once the triple A first party titles start to come in, things will begin to look up for the Wii U.

So close now... To bad those of us in NA have to wait an entire week longer then everyone else for some reason.

Eh, even if there is a new game, it'll probably just be fan-made again...

Let's hope Nintendo can make up for lost time and get things moving.

YES! YES! YES!

@Hunter-D I was thinking the same thing.

Also can't remember the last time I've seen the word 'blimey' used, but then again this is a UK based site...

Now let's take this a step further. The Aero Porter plane for SSB4!

I think it'd be best if there is a Wii U Fire Emblem, that it would follow in Awakening's footsteps. In other words, wait until the more famous IPs (Mario, Zelda, ect.) come out and build up the userbase, then it will be much more welcome.

Uh, all's well that ends well I guess?

Ugh, Nintendo why do you keep hurting yourself?

Is it just me, or has NA been getting the cold shoulder lately...

I don't know, the way Iwata worded it,

"Most of those who are interested in E3 are video game fans that are eager for information on so-called traditional games and we had a lot of information to be disclosed to such people."

makes it sound like the unannounced games are going to be casual based, not more niche like the previously mentioned Star Fox and so forth.

@Kagamine hit the nail on the head. Most people already read on phones and tablets, so while an ebook app would be nice, it just wouldn't be profitable on Nintendo's part.

It's a crossover between two beloved franchises, so why are things taking so long?

Good for them! Nice to know things are going well for the folks at Monolith Soft.

Wow, this looks totally original!
/sarcasm

He does have a good point. But at the same time new characters certainly can be a good thing too.

A very smart man that Iwata. If developments are already going slower then anticipated then minimizing the work force would be utterly detrimental, so in the long run he is making the right choice.

I honestly don't know what to expect in terms of surprises right now. I'm hoping that the secrets will be IPs like Metroid, Star Fox, F-Zero, something entirely new ect. if for nothing else then to appese the complainers, but like several others have mentioned I fear it might just be more casual titles, which would completely go against Nintendo's original goal of catering to the "hardcore" crowd.

And perhaps even more importantly, Nintendo REALLY needs to step up in their advertising department, ESPECIALLY when the triple A titles start releasing in the coming months.

And this update still isn't in NA because...?

Um, okay...

I say, wait until about a year has passed when all three consoles have been out for a while, THEN the arguments can start flying around.

What's with all this hacking lately? Many people just don't believe in making an honest living anymore...

The first snapshot of it reminds me a lot of the Snagrets from Pikmin. Just look how similar the positions are.

Hmm... I've never played a SMT game before, but all this limited edition stuff is tempting.

Very fickle? Now that's an understatement if I ever heard one.

It's a start I guess, albeit an unusual one.

Nice, but Capcom, how about instead of beating around the bush you actually make a proper, non fan made Mega Man video game and actually finish it?

Doesn't Link look enough like a girl as it is? JK.

On a serious note, I'm all for more women getting a bigger role in games, as long as it is done right (looking at you Other M!). I can see her as an optional character after completing the main adventure, but replacing Link as the main protagonist? Yeah, that doesn't seem like too good of an idea.

You know you're doing something wrong as a video game company when the fans are doing more with its number 1 IP then the actual company is!

Thank goodness that never happened. Poor DK would've been utterly destroyed by Microsoft had they got their greedy hands on him.

Eh, wasn't really interested in this game from the get-go anyway, so it doesn't matter to me how it eventually ends up.
