Snagrio

I just got a blue/black one on Black Friday, and I like the blue on it more then the regular 3DS I used before, so I'm satisfied.

U mad dudebros?

It was a giant dudebro fest. What were you guys expecting? E3 class material? I think not.

Miiverse is working fine (though I'm disappointed in the current lack of communities), but I can't connect to the eShop. It keeps saying there is an error after I sign in. And my Wii U account's balance hasn't changed yet either...

Guess I'll just wait then.

I feared this would happen.

Like many people here I'm looking forward to DK, but Nintendo (once again) screwed up here. This was not the game to show at this particular event.

Plus, thanks to leaks the news about Cranky Kong was already known! Sure it was a rumor at the time, but still the fact that Nintendo made so much hype over an announcement that wasn't that big to begin with is just mind boggling.

Over 300 comments? Seriously, don't we have anything better to do?

@WYLD-WOO Funny you say that considering chickens are extremely cannibalistic. I'm not even joking. If you break an egg in front of them, even if it's their own, they'll act like piranhas.

Not even my chickens would eat that. And that's saying something.

Looks like TIME is finally on, /whips out shades
Wii U's side.

Well that was my weirdness for the morning.

At least there is still some small form of Rare present at Nintendo today, with David Wise, the man responsible for the music of the original Donkey Kong Country games, currently doing the soundtrack for Tropical Freeze.

@CountWavula Indeed. It's the only thing standing between Capcom and total bankruptcy right now.

"Prospective farmers in North America may want to ready their hoes..."
/snickers

Uh, okay then. Good for the germophobes I guess.

I really hope Nintendo takes full advantage of this opportunity and shows off something the "hardcores" would like. Smash, X, Metroid, anything along those lines. Hopefully it isn't simply DK or Mario Kart.

Finally some good exciting news for once. Let's rev up those hype engines!

Sigh, all these analysis/sales related topics are getting really old...

Stay classy Nintendo.

Someone said that the Wii U will fail? And that someone is a former Sony developer no less?

Huh, never saw that coming!

Laughing the whole time! Missingno strikes again!

Hmm, if this is true then will Funky be running the shops?

@Tasuki It was until our "brilliant" president/government planned to lift said rule.

I wouldn't put this in the weirdness category, more like disturbing.

Geez is the US the only potentially safe haven Wii U has left!?

Wiiware is brought back from the dead, only to be shot straight back to the dark depths of obscurity. :/

Brawl Brothers, then Super Smash Bros. Brawl.

Huh...

I just noticed something. Dating sim games are far more popular in Japan then anywhere else (as far as I know anyway), and yet in America (not sure about Europe or Australia) a typical image of a gamer is a guy alone in a basement.

Unless this stereotypical idea is also widespread in Japan I can't help but find the whole thing rather strange.

Still not in NA. Sigh, I'm putting Christmas decorations soon anyway, so it doesn't matter to me. /flies off

I managed to snatch a blue XL, and probably the last XL in the store, in Target last night.

It my not be a special edition, but at least it's the color I wanted.

Since when did Luigi have a bushy beard? o.0

It wouldn't be the Internet without cat videos after all.

Well that's just disappointing. Hopefully the story here will be more positive (I don't expect much from Europe's side though due to how horribly the Wii U has done there).

Finally, a real step forward in marketing the darn thing!

Aww, we can't vote for favorites?

Amazing artwork regardless.

Hmm, if this is a separate project from Miyamoto's then that means 2, count 'em, 2, new IPs!

This is some exciting news indeed.

It's a nice thought, but a simple infographic ain't gonna do much I'm afraid. Hope I'm dead wrong on that nonetheless.

I got 100%!

Had to pick Luigi sticking his nose in Marth's business purely for how hilariously awkward it is.

Any website with the word "fool(s)" in the title shouldn't be taken seriously.

/shakes head in dismay

Kinda reminds me of our real world pets. At least one of my parrots will still be with me when I get married and have kids, and I've him had since I myself was little.

Dang dust keeps getting in my eyes...

I bet the angel was a trolling Pit.

I just might pick this up at some point. When I was little the Roller Coaster Tycoon series was among my top favorites, so maybe this will revitalize those memories.

All is not lost for 3DS's big brother yet, that much we can be certain of.

If I didn't already have a Wii U I'd be really annoyed. But regardless it'd be really nice if this amazing bundle came to the US. It would be irresistible.

Unless things drastically speed up for the Wii U, I'm starting to agree with the GameCube sales outlook.

I've said this before, and I'll say it again. Screw you EA.

This is exactly why I'm a loyal Nintendo fan. To me, video games are for fun and escapism; doing things you never could in real life.

Things like flinging fireballs out of my hands to defeat evil mushrooms (Mario), catching and battling alongside creatures of all shapes, sizes, and types, (Pokemon), flying through the air while shooting at various monsters, (Kid Icarus), or even simply living in a peaceful town full of friendly animals (Animal Crossing), are all examples of amazing experiences you could never have outside the virtual world.

Most games today however? Guns, war, gore, and realistic images. All things you can experience in our real world that I'd rather not think about. If I want to see or feel those scenarios, I'd watch the news or join the military.

@Tsuchinoko Ah, then that just means it still has plenty of room to dominate. /double troll face

I had my doubts before, but it appears Mario is going to (once again) save a system from ruin.

GO MARIO!

The only reason 3DS sales are lower is because most people in Japan already have one or several. /troll face
