Why are 1st party Nintendo titles almost never included in these sales stateside?

I just hope they're also planning on how the new system will be ADVERTIZED. You know, that phenomenon the Wii U got so little of.

It's not just TRU either. I had a Pit amiibo in Target pre-ordered but it was cancelled this morning.

Nintendo, WTF are you doing?!

It's like they're giving up on the amiibo idea before it even started, which, considering its great success, is quite baffling.

Won't be at all surprised if Nintendo's presence in the UK vanishes altogether by next gen.

It's weird that Zelda is coming out after Star Fox, yet we know more about it then the latter.

Heck, the only thing we DO know about Star Fox U up until this point is that it's a thing.

I just hope he went all that way for a separate reason, not just to showcase amiibos during the travel. :/

After the first wave it should've been crystal clear that the masses bought Amiibo like hotcakes, but, as usual, they dropped the ball and understocked the second set. It's the holiday season Nintendo, it's perfectly fine to go all out with product production, especially when you know it's a big hit like this.

I want some of those. Cake pops are awesome!

Already have a Wii U, and there's no point in me getting another XL with the New model just around the corner.

Sucks that there's barely any deals for just the games specifically.

There are times when I wonder if the Pokemon community is even more whiny then the Sonic fanbase...

@Palom I can agree to an extent in terms of laziness (most of the Pokemon are blatantly obvious homages to past gens, the first one in particular). But the point I'm making in every list on YouTube involving least favorites/worst/whatever always has gen V as a punching bag and it's been beyond done to death.

It's even worse then usual here since it just throws the entire gen into the lot rather then one in particular.

"Please don't have Garbodor/Vanilluxe/anything from gen V on the list like every other one does."

"Number 1, almost everything from gen V."

-_-

Sounds like this is the only future Sega's IPs will have now.

I agree with what others said. Slow news day perhaps?

Nintendo, ya gotta learn about extremes and how not to constantly be in them.

Example here. Cutting developers some slack is nice, but clearly this is simply too MUCH slack...

zzz....

Ach! Had a nightmare about more shovelware!

Oh...

If there's one thing I hate, it's bush-beating. Just down your honesty pills and tell us what really going on Nintendo!

Just let me know if I should even bother to keep holding out for restocking of Marth...

Ugh. Marth was the only non-perennial of wave 1 I was interested in. Searched every store in my vicinity, nothing. And of course Amazon only has third party sellers now that have jacked up the price far beyond any amount of reason. $70+ dollars? Screw you greedy jerks.

I salute you sir. The gaming world salutes you.

I knew exactly what was going to happen to poor Charizard the second it was picked. Flare Blitz SD for days.

Nintendo really needs to learn the rules of supply and demand.

I really need to pick this up sometime.

I'm sure I'm not the only one meticulously checking each and every Amiibo when I come across them in stores by this point. XD

Kind of a worrying sign if you ask me. Today's young generation is gravitating almost solely around either FPS or iPhone apps. Yeah there's a few kids who's parents are gamers that will grow up with the classics both old and new, but once we, the main base that keeps Nintendo's boat afloat, are gone, what are they gonna do?

InB4 the return of DOOOOMED articles galore.

I just find it hilarious that people are willing to pay three times or more the worth of an object based solely on the fact that it's a factory mistake. I mean, really? Especially when some have already started customizing their amiibos to the point where one can easily just make their own two cannon-armed Samus.

My expectations were very low the second I saw the redesigns, because every time Sega tries something new with Sonic typically spells some amount of disaster, but I didn't think it'd reach '06 levels of terrible. Sigh...

I can't help but feel some amount of flaw in everyone waiting for online to be available before giving the final review scores.

It's opening day. Thousands if not millions of people are going to be booting up and heading to online at once, which in turn will undoubtedly cause strain on the servers. The same thing happened with 3DS's release and complaints abounded concerning lag, only for the problem to mostly resolve itself sometime later after launch hype died down.

But it can't be helped, and this game will be getting 9s everywhere regardless, so whatevs.

I've dubbed Little Mac the For Glory noob character. I can't tell you how many times I faced someone playing whoever, have them lose, then immediately switch to Little Mac the next match.

Then some tosses off the stage later, they quit.

The game title sounds like it was ripped straight out of a B-movie.

First heard about this game from JonTron. Ever since I've grown quite the interest in it. Would definitely buy if it ever came on VC.

His body is even more ready.

180 coins short. Arrg...

Honestly just about every Ghost type has some amount of creepiness. You can thank the Pokèdex for that.

I. MUST. SEE. THOSE.

Yet another example of Smash treating the 3rd party characters better then their actual owners. XD

@WaLzgi The trainer club option expired today though didn't it?

In any case I already signed up days ago so I'm good.

Most entertaining review. applauds

Wait... Miley Cyrus is still a thing that people acknowledge?

Ah bad game reviews, always good for laughs.

... Faffing? What is "faffing?"

I can already see the grim reaper waiting outside Capcom's HQ.

And BS like this is why Rayman ain't playable in Sm4sh (that's the theory anyway).

I forgot how gaudy the DS section of the site was. That green...

On the one hand, yes, they should either be making this in the likeness of Mother or getting Nintendo's permission.

But then again fans are getting tired of big companies ignoring demands that have been ringing for years or even decades (Mega Man is a huge example), and now some are old enough to take matters in their own hands.

Overall this isn't right, but I can't blame them either.

As soon as Link spoke I said to myself, "And que rage comments." And sure enough, there's already some here. XD

That face... XD

As expected.

My circle pad isn't in any real danger of damage but still I'm really hoping for control customization that allows for D pad movement instead of taunts anyway. The circle pad just feels so awkward and imprecise for the intense reactions Smash requires.
