I'm with Ren. The Blue Man videos have been hands down the most disappointing. The 3D is non-existant and they certainly don't make me laugh. I'd rather have a dedicated slot to College Humor cartoons. Is there seriously always going to be 1 slot dedicated to old Blue Man Group videos?

But the Dreamworks news almost makes up for it.

I'm glad to see streetpass get some love

those were some great previews. I think I'm most excited for Luigi's Mansion and Mario Kart

new Club Nintendo Reward available today by the way

looks good to me

@Objection_Blaster
you're dead on. I don't see why I'm not getting interesting spotpass news every day. Surely Nintendo is capable of giving me news about Nintendo before anyone else. Like I don't see why Nintendo doesn't want to be the first to tell me what new eshop games will be released next Thursday. Instead they send me an e-mail 2 or 3 days late.

@TeeJay
the answer to that always seems to be yes

lol at the 7 people who bought a PSP go

that's a pretty shocking press statement. I'm pretty disappointed that I can't get any use out of that feature b/c I don't know anyone that has a 3DS, and I let Nintendo know it in the Club Nintendo Survey. I guess I'm mostly just surprised that they actually admitted that there's no online because they were in a rush.

I don't know why they wouldn't have the table stretch across both screens. I'm uncomfortable playing pinball if I can't see my flippers at all time.

@TBD oh awesome that's good news

for some reason the label/icon in NA is just a yellow star and not the Nintendo Life icon. I went ahead and pulled the trigger on Mario's Picross and it is definitely a really good game. Hopefully you guys get to do it again and include all of the games you had to leave out this time.

good list guys, and very cool to get on the 3DS like that. Congrats. For me I guess I'd say Bejeweled Twist is missing. That game is just so danged replayable.

And are you suggesting Nintendo can see if I download a game straight from your section as opposed to straight from my wishlist? Or is it simply a bump in sales for the games on your list that they would deem a success?

this looks awesome so far. great music and art.

i look forward to seeing what changes. besides a search feature for the forums the only thing I really want to see change is an ignore feature I can use for posters that are always negative.

I thought at least there would be a new episode of Nintendo Show 3D...

the guess that makes the most sense to me is 3D Movies being announced. it seems like the type of fundamental big change for the 3DS that merits a secret month early rumor of a BIG announcement. Of course the only thing I would actually care about after a month long wait for a secret announcement is a new Earthbound...

Earthbound is by far my favorite game. Then A Link to the Past.

@IB very cool for real. very clever. I have even listened multiple times to make sure I catch it all. thanks!

I will definitely be downloading this if only to encourage more games that look like this to be made. I love that style.

@siavm
chillax

Hopefully they named it earlier than intended too.

@Scribbler
But I don't feel like I'm being treated as a criminal. This is truly not going to affect me in the least bit. Until news comes out that someone's console was unjustly bricked I still don't see how anyone can argue against anti-piracy.

I'm baffled by those complaining about this and quoting Anonymous as if punishing criminals isn't legal. Until someone has their console accidentally bricked there is absolutely nothing to complain about. That sounds like the only legitimate worry.

It's like complaining that your city now has more policeman and you can no longer rob a bank easily. "It's not that I want to rob the bank, I just like knowing I could if I wanted to."
How about you just don't break the law and I'm sure everything will be fine.

I like the posters, it might be nice to frame all 3 "history" posters. But overall these new releases don't really jump out at me personally.

@ Burning_Spear
link to what you bought?

@Graph I think you are.
I don't know a single person who has a 3DS, but I would still like to play the multiplayer battles. So no online hurts. It looks like a lot of fun. For those in the know, would adding online capabilities truly be that much of a hassle and be very expensive?

@DarkKirby That thing about Inafune is what popped into my head too. Maybe they're so jilted they don't want to have to keep giving him credit on a successful franchise.

Super Pokemon Rumble sounds just fine to me. Somewhere in the world they wasted time sitting around a table and said "Super Pokemon Rumble just won't work in America, they're simple creatures and they need flashy words like BLAST!" also "is there some way we could work in a pronoun pun?"

I'm with Link79 on this. If these first underwhelming "3D Classics" don't sell well, I hope they don't interpret that as meaning I don't want them to give the treatment to a good game, because I do.

I don't think waiting to go head to head with the system's first good games was the right decision.

this is a great announcement

@mariofanatic
I'm pretty sure releasing obscure games is just a good business strategy. lots of people are snatching up these obscure games b/c it's all that is being released and they really want to download something on their new toy. If they also released big titles that everyone is interested in, they wouldn't get nearly as much money from the obscure titles.

@antdickens thanks for sharing a glimpse of the future. I was also silently wondering about a Playstation Life instead of just Move. I'll definitely be using Vitagamr. Love the organization of all your sites everyone involved.

what a disappointment. this wasn't an ambiguous statement I don't think, someone was simply wrong. or, as @Catcher suggested, someone jumped the gun. They clearly said 3D movies, not 3D snipits of trailers and music videos. Netflix hasn't actually denied anything have they?

@Mully
but I suspect it makes Nintendo very happy. They are laughing that so many people are snatching them up during this fire sale, right on the precipice of it being phased out and completely ignored.

hooray! I love surprises.

I think Jim Carrey could play a good Steve Wiebe. ponder that for a second.

I liked it...

I like the game's title. that's how Nintendo should always name their sequels. I'm looking at you Wii U.

@MeloMan
I love that idea. We should be able to use our handhelds as controllers for Wii2 games AND stream our DS games the other way to the big TV screen.

@Otaku
I agree. I wouldn't mind if the screen was just a map or an inventory or even just pretty pictures. Or like that mario video just a streaming of the game itself on the controller. What I hope more is that 3rd parties realize they can completely ignore the wiimote and nunchuck functionality, and that Nintendo only uses them for Wii2 sports and that sort.

I also really like the idea of using my 3DS as a controller, that'd be an easy way of giving lots of people in the room traditional controls and a screen.

I second that irken, skype is all I need and want. paying to talk to people is so 2007.

his feelings about motion control and having a controller with traditional buttons are the same as mine. I like the idea of this controller, I just hope they follow through with letting multiple people be using one instead of giving everyone else in the room a wii mote.

"Just like agreeing to StreetPass or SpotPass, players would confirm their interest in receiving the content, which would later show up automatically."
for those that seemed to have missed it, it would be a choice. I would turn it on.

hooray! this is a great piece of news. keep the streetpass content coming!

different online accounts for different publishers sounds about as stupid as a different friend code for each game. that does not sound like an organized online experience that people want at this point.

this is interesting, but I'm pretty sure I'm still doing this one on PS3

I'm definitely going to buy a Wii 2, but if the PS4 is indeed launching next year as well, then Nintendo has a very big hill to climb. What a battle.
