I think i owned a video of one of these cartoons when i was a very young child. The only episode i remember if i remember it correctly was sonic wearing a dress and appearing in front of (might have been) Dr. Robotnik.
I always thought about naming my future daughters (if i decide to have kids) Claire or Sarah (after Claire Redfield and Sarah Bryant from Resident Evil and Virtua Fighter, 2 of my top 3 favorite female video game characters of all time, the 3rd one being Aya Brea from Parasite Eve)
Yeah i was born 3 months premature, i needed a blood transfusion, AIDS was the hot topic in the 80's and my dad turned white as a ghost, that was when Robin told my dad to go see me. When I did meet him, he was signing autographs for Radio Man (someone who usually dressed like a homeless bum and even played one in movies like Mr. Deeds) Robin didn't have to sign them but he did, he saw me, and my dad, at first he didn't realize me, then he cocked his head and said, "That's ur son?!, THAT'S THE SON" He dropped everything, he gave a hug and we tried to take a photo but either the camera was not on or it was too dark.
Believe it or not, Robin Williams has always KNOWN I'VE EXISTED! NO JOKE! My dad a make up artist was working on Awakenings at the time of my birth, i was born 3 months early, Robin told my dad to go see me, they meet again 6-7 years later, first thing Robin says, "How's ur son?" I finally meet him on the set of "Old Dogs". He was very nice. Hopefully i will get to meet him again some day.
@Mainer82 agreed on thee Link to the Past comment, would be great for newcomers and those who want a refreshing of the story before the new 3DS game releases.
Only a few on the list that i'm hyped for (Zelda WW HD, Super Mario 3D World), Sonic Lost World) And I should be getting Shovel Knight for free since i pledged to its company's kickstarter.
I got Game and Wario yesterday in the mail, so far it is fun. Got it for a few dollars cheaper and obviously sooner thanks to a 3rd party seller on amazon.com
@Musterd YOU'VE NEVER PLAYED RISTAR! One of my all time favorite Genesis games when i was growing up. I LOVED that game so much. Do yourself a favor, go buy a copy of any genesis collection on whatever system u own and play Ristar.
I still have my old Game Gear and games, but it doesn't look like I'll need to use it anymore since all the games i own and enjoy are on or coming to 3DS VC.
Hopefully the demo is different from the 3DS version at least in my opinion. Also I already pre-ordered this game for Wii U for $25 as part of Best Buy's Buy 1 Get 1 Half Off sale back a couple months ago.
I was looking at pics of Super Mario World on the eShop and it looks very crisp the colors, more so. The details page said it can be in 1080p the graphics.
This is the one Wii U VC game for $0.30 that i'm having a blast with. All the others i have played once, maybe twice. The next is likely Super Metroid next month.
Just curious does Yoshi's Island on SNES have better looking colors compared to its GBA counterpart like Super Mario World? I had never played Yoshi's Island on SNES.
Does anybody chance know when Kung Fu Rabbit releases on the NA eShop? I'm guessing not too far off since it's being released today in the European eShop?
It said on i think it was the kickstarter page or something that guaranteed delivery by Sept 2013. Hopefully it's sooner than that. It does look like a great game. It has the nostalgia feel of NES games but has the content of modern day games. I plan on getting it for Wii U.
I really enjoyed Ecco especially DotF on DC and PS2 (Still have both versions) Would love to see it as a digital download on HD consoles along with games already released Sonic Adventure 1 and 2, Crazy Taxi, etc.
I'd never expected Nintendo to release a game early or at least its digital counterpart of that game early. That's great for people whom want to buy it digitally.
I have over 40 Sega Genesis games and a ton of GBA games, will pick up a couple of SNES games off of half.com and ebay and some more genesis titles. This sounds like an awesome system.

YES! Ecco the Dolphin, I'm pretty sure all Sega 3D Classics cost $5.99.
Re: Fan Campaign for Bayonetta Wii U Release Kicks Into Gear
Reading these articles about Bayonetta 1 on Wii U makes me want to go and finish platinuming the PS3 version.
Re: SEGA's Retro Remakes Down to Fans for "Next Lineup"
Ristar, Oh HOW I LOVE THAT GAME! And Vectorman 1 and 2.
Re: Feature: A Supersonic History of Sonic Cartoons
It's a shame that many cartoons, especially based on video games don't last long, there was even an anime based on Virtua Fighter.

Super Mario Bros. for a $1 (in order to upgrade) and Wind Waker HD for me.

Re: Video: The Legend of Zelda: The Wind Waker HD Has a Gorgeous New Story Trailer
I really enjoyed playing this game when i got a gamecube in summer 04. I would play for hours in one sitting. So much fun.
Re: The Legend of Zelda: The Wind Waker HD Confirmed for 4th October in North America
does the digital version still have a chance of coming out 2 weeks early?
Re: Team Ninja Still Keen To Continue Wii U Support, But Not With Ports
Would really love to see DOA come to Wii U.
Re: Rumour: The Wind Waker HD May Have An Additional Difficulty Level
In case anyone doesn't know, there is an eShop page on the Wii U eShop but it says the game IS COMPATIBLE WITH THE WII U PRO CONTROLLER!
Re: Soul Calibur II HD Online Not Announced For Wii U
Someone should make a petition, see if that could help.
Re: Nintendo Download: 27th June (North America)
yes Sonic 2 GG, a great game, difficult though, the boss stages i don't think contain rings. Thank goodness for save states.
Re: Talking Point: New Super Luigi U Opens The Door For Quick Expansions in Other Franchises
Would love to see DLC used for Mario Kart 8, as in more courses, characters, and karts.

Re: 3D Ecco The Dolphin Splashing Onto 3DS eShop, Galaxy Force II Coming Soon
@ferthepoet Agreed! I thought Ecco would be a good game in 3D.
Re: Nintendo Download: 13th June (North America)
I'LL GET MUTANT MUDDS DELUXE ANOTHER TIME, MAYBE WHEN IT GOES ON SALE
Re: Nintendo Download: 13th June (North America)
YES SONIC THE HEDGEHOG, COLUMNS, AND DR. ROBOTNIK'S MEAN BEAN MACHINE FOR ME, AS WELL AS YOSHI!
Re: Bayonetta 2 Confirmed for E3 Nintendo Direct Appearance
There's a chance that the first game MIGHT come to the eShop. Even if that happens, I'll be more than glad to purchase it a 3rd time.

Re: SEGA's 3D Classics Range Gets Closer to Western Release
I think the Ecco the Dolphin games would really benefit as 3D Classics.
Re: Day One Resident Evil Revelations Update Adds ResidentEvil.net Support
So from what i heard in this article as well as a video i saw, u can sell weapons now in this version.
Re: Don't Worry, There Are More Sega Game Gear Titles Coming To 3DS Virtual Console
I still have my old Game Gear and games, but it doesn't look like I'll need to use it anymore since all the games i own and enjoy are on or coming to 3DS VC.
Re: Don't Worry, There Are More Sega Game Gear Titles Coming To 3DS Virtual Console
Sonic the Hedgehog 2 GG CAN be very difficult, the save states will be very welcome in this case.
I want possibly ALL the Sonic games, MAYBE i won't get Sonic Drift 2, didn't seem that fun when playing it in Sonic Adventure on the Gamecube.
Columns I have enjoyed on Sonic's Ultmate Genesis Collection.
Re: Mutant Mudds Developer Muses on Wii U Design
By the way, any update on Mutant Mudds Deluxe for the Wii U?
Re: Resident Evil Revelations Demo to Sneak up on the Wii U eShop
sorry to post a 3rd time, I have really enjoyed this on 3DS, I KNOW for a fact I clocked in more time in Raid Mode than the Story mode.
Re: Resident Evil Revelations Demo to Sneak up on the Wii U eShop
also for those interested, the Wii U version is being sold for $39.99 on amazon.com
Re: Resident Evil Revelations Demo to Sneak up on the Wii U eShop
Hopefully the demo is different from the 3DS version at least in my opinion. Also I already pre-ordered this game for Wii U for $25 as part of Best Buy's Buy 1 Get 1 Half Off sale back a couple months ago.
Re: Nintendo Download: 27th April - Virtual Console (Europe)
any idea when the NA VC launches?
Re: Nintendo Download: 27th April - Virtual Console (Europe)
I was looking at pics of Super Mario World on the eShop and it looks very crisp the colors, more so. The details page said it can be in 1080p the graphics.
Re: Rejoice, Mario Kart Wii U Is Coming This Year
@PinkSpider, I hope there's DLC, it's a shame there isn't any for the 3DS installment.
Re: Rejoice, Mario Kart Wii U Is Coming This Year
Can't wait for this game, i have heard some where that Nintendo might take some ideas from Sonic and All Stars Racing Transformed.
Re: Review: Kirby's Adventure (Wii U eShop / NES)
This is the one Wii U VC game for $0.30 that i'm having a blast with. All the others i have played once, maybe twice. The next is likely Super Metroid next month.
Re: Rumour: Wii U System Update Could Go Live Tomorrow
Just curious does Yoshi's Island on SNES have better looking colors compared to its GBA counterpart like Super Mario World? I had never played Yoshi's Island on SNES.
Re: Rumour: Wii U System Update Could Go Live Tomorrow
I hope Super Mario World is a day 1 release as it is already stated to be coming.
Re: Nintendo Download: 18th April 2013 (Europe)
I just read somewhere next month for the NA eShop.

Re: Platinum's Kamiya: "No Other Way" That Bayonetta 2 Could Be Made Without Nintendo
Just glad this game is getting a much deserved sequel.
Re: Ecco The Dolphin Creator Launches Kickstarter For Spiritual Sequel, Wii U Version A Possibility

Re: All New DuckTales is Coming to Wii U
I sadly (or at least have no memory) of ever playing this game, but I'll definitely download this for the Wii U.
Re: Nintendo Download: 14th March 2013 (North America)

Re: Nintendo Download: 14th March 2013 (North America)
Yeah I already pre-ordered a retail version of Monster Hunter along with Resident Evil: Revelations as part of Best Buy's Buy 1 Get 1 Half off.
Re: Hyperkin's RetroN 4 To Support SNES, Genesis, NES and GBA Software
I have over 40 Sega Genesis games and a ton of GBA games, will pick up a couple of SNES games off of half.com and ebay and some more genesis titles. This sounds like an awesome system.
Re: Nintendo Download: 21st February 2013 (North America)
Also amazon.com is selling BOTH Monster Hunter games for $80 TOTAL, ($20 off) if u buy both versions by checking out in the same cart.
