Awesome week. Gonna have to buy Mega Man. I've still never gotten Pushmo or Dillon's Rolling Western either so this is a good time to try those. Gotta buy some discounted pinball tables too! So much!
I've always liked this game despite the bad controls, but it was too hard for me to ever make much progress. I'm thinking this could be fun to cheat with save states and get through the whole thing. So I'm gonna buy it.
I think the resolution was just fine. It looks bad on the tv but great on the GamePad. And at 2 bucks a piece, that's chump change. I bought all 4 without even considering it and really hope they make more. It's an amazing bit of technology that I wasn't even aware existed. Video in all directions that I'm in control of? Why isn't everyone freaking out about this as much as I am?
I'm more excited for Panorama view than any games. It looks so amazing. Are there any other devices out there that can do the same thing? It seems revolutionary to me.
The only games I can think of that were released in Feb. were Fire Emblem Awakening and DmC. Nobody wanted DmC and it flopped. Conversely, Ninty shot themselves in the foot by not having enough copies of Fire Emblem available. I just don't know how anyone would expect it to be a big month when there's nothing out there.
March is a huge month for game releases this year though, and we'll see a large spike across all platforms.
You know, I'm really into the concept of Disney Infinity, but it seems like they're afraid to make playsets of actual good Disney movies. It's all Pixar crap + Pirates. And not even the good Pixar movies either.
Are you sure he meant that the levels themselves are different, or did he just mean that the game would play a lot differently because of how Luigi controls? Like in Mario Galaxy after collecting all the stars.
I sure hope he's right. I don't think Nintendocan ssurvive without EA and Activision supporting them though... They always port their crappy games to every system, so if they're thinking the port isn't even worth it, that's some bad news.
I'm not just boycotting the game, I'm boycotting Ubisoft. And I say that as a gamer that buys all the systems. I'm no Nintendo fanboy, but this is just too much. They've admitted that they're just screwing us, so I have no compassion for them. This is worse than anything EA has ever done. Ubisoft will not be getting any more money from me.

Re: Wii U System Update Coming Next Week
I'm more excited for Panorama view than any games. It looks so amazing. Are there any other devices out there that can do the same thing? It seems revolutionary to me.
Re: Nintendo Direct: Watch The European 3DS Presentation Live
Looks like it was the exact same show as NA.
Re: Nintendo Direct: Watch The North American 3DS Presentation Live
This guy looks so sad.

Re: Nintendo Direct: Watch The North American 3DS Presentation Live
Mario Party on handheld... so they really are giving up on Wii U.
Re: Nintendo Direct: Watch The North American 3DS Presentation Live
My body is ready for Wii U games, but unfortunately Nintendo is not!
Re: New 3DS Nintendo Direct to Broadcast on 17th April
3DS direct? Are you ****ing serious? It really feels like Nintendo is just dropping all support for Wii U. This is ridiculous.
Re: LEGO Batman 2: DC Super Heroes Release Date Emerges From The Batcave
I love how all the comments are about how the author of the story doesn't know what Spring is.
Re: Aliens: Colonial Marines Cancelled on Wii U
Good. Now can we please forget this garbage game ever existed? Gearbox is crap. Randy Pitchford is a hack.
Re: Little Inferno Hits High Temperatures With Impressive Sales
@ToxieDogg Then you went into it expecting something other than it wasn't. I bought it expecting a fireplace simulator and I got that and much more.
Re: Video: Deus Ex: Human Revolution Debut Trailer Blasts Into View
How soon should we be expecting this game?
Re: Review: The Walking Dead: Survival Instinct (Wii U)
Is 3/10 the lowest score you can give? I don't see how it deserves that much.
Re: Video: Wii U Menu Speed Upgrade Cuts Waiting Time By More Than Half
Good. Now teach Travelers Tales how to do this so that Lego City is playable.
Re: Star Fox Developer: I Wanted To Say "Screw That" To Shigeru Miyamoto
Gotta love that "immserise" gameplay.
Re: Etrian Odyssey: Millennium Girl Revealed In Famitsu Magazine
@XXIV Who older than 16 doesn't have a bank account with debit card? Are you serious?
Re: Etrian Odyssey: Millennium Girl Revealed In Famitsu Magazine
@XXIV You type in Amazon.com and search for the name of the game. You can get it for 30 bucks. Really not hard.
I just got it a few months ago and really enjoyed it. ON MY 3DS. A remake already is pointless.
Re: Miyamoto Teases the Possibility of a Real "Nintendo Land" In the Future
YES. Please make it happen.
Re: Android-based Ouya Console Will Have NES and SNES Emulation At Launch
I'm really excited for my Ouya to come. I snatched up the username Link!
Re: Wii U Version Of Dead Island: Riptide "Not Worth It", Says Deep Silver
This is the reason we're not getting any games on Wii U. Publishers think it's not worth the time or effort to port it over. That's a really bad sign.
Re: Rabbit-Bashing Cartoon Game Slashear Could Be Coming To The Wii U eShop
Kickstarter has already jumped the shark with crap like this.
Re: U.S. February Sales Figures Make Grim Reading for Wii U and Wider Industry
The only games I can think of that were released in Feb. were Fire Emblem Awakening and DmC. Nobody wanted DmC and it flopped.

Re: Nintendo Download: 14th March 2013 (North America)
I don't think Zen Pinball is ever coming.
Re: Review: LEGO City: Undercover (Wii U)
It's almost surreal that there will FINALLY be a new game out for Wii U.
Re: Terra Incognita Could Come To The Wii U If Kickstarter Goal Is Reached
After watching the video of this, it really looks quite bad.
Re: Pachter: Wii U Will Sell Between 30 to 50 Million Units During Its Lifetime
@Sensei_PikPik And he would know, considering all he and his buddy speak are lies.
Re: Cars Confirmed As Another Disney Infinity Play Set
You know, I'm really into the concept of Disney Infinity, but it seems like they're afraid to make playsets of actual good Disney movies. It's all Pixar crap + Pirates. And not even the good Pixar movies either.
Re: Nintendo Download: 21st February 2013 (North America)
@AlmightyDerek I highly doubt it. They seem to be averse to releasing more than one game in a single week, which is ridiculous.
Re: Nintendo Download: 21st February 2013 (North America)
Why hello there Zen Pinball... oh wait.
Re: Rumour: Aliens: Colonial Marines Had Resources Moved to More "Important" Projects
@Revolution5268 SEGA was paying them development costs all the while the game was tucked away, not being worked on. They have a case there.
Re: Rumour: Aliens: Colonial Marines Had Resources Moved to More "Important" Projects
I hope SEGA sues Gearbox.
Re: Angry Birds Trilogy Flapping To Wii And Wii U This Year
Oh, great! Because what we need to save Wii U is some garbage shovelware that kids like for some reason.
Re: Nintendo Download: 14th February 2013 (North America)
Why the hell do we not have pinball yet??
Re: New Super Luigi U Confirmed as Future DLC for New Super Mario Bros. U
Are you sure he meant that the levels themselves are different, or did he just mean that the game would play a lot differently because of how Luigi controls? Like in Mario Galaxy after collecting all the stars.
Re: Wii U Resident Evil: Revelations Will Not Support Wii Remote and Nunchuk
Good. Nobody wants to use Wiimotes. Let's leave that in the past and never look back.
Re: Nintendo 3DS Direct Bringing the Love on 14th February
This is their Hail Mary.
Re: Renegade Kid "Certain The Wii U Will Have an Excellent Future"
I sure hope he's right. I don't think Nintendocan ssurvive without EA and Activision supporting them though... They always port their crappy games to every system, so if they're thinking the port isn't even worth it, that's some bad news.
Re: Rumour: Gearbox Played Secondary Role in Aliens: Colonial Marines Development
Hahaha
Now that we know it sucks, they say they didn't actually make it.
Re: Rayman Legends Boss and Dev Team Protest Wii U Release Delay
This is great. He knows Ubisoft is going to kill his franchise with this move.
Re: Nintendo Download: 14th February 2013 (Europe)
Wow, I hope America gets Tank as a free to play. That's awesome.
Re: Wii U To Get An "Exclusive" Rayman Legends Demo Soon
And I don't get why so many people keep saying 6 months. September is 7 months away.
Re: Wii U To Get An "Exclusive" Rayman Legends Demo Soon
I refuse to even give them the stat of somebody downloading their demo. They are dead to me.
Re: Ubisoft Confirms Rayman Legends Delay Isn't Down To Development Issues
@Aviator This article is about how they admit the game was finished... maybe you should try reading it.
Re: Reaction: The Rayman Legends Delay Is a Low Blow, But The Apocalypse Isn't Here
I'm not just boycotting the game, I'm boycotting Ubisoft. And I say that as a gamer that buys all the systems. I'm no Nintendo fanboy, but this is just too much. They've admitted that they're just screwing us, so I have no compassion for them. This is worse than anything EA has ever done. Ubisoft will not be getting any more money from me.
Re: Ubisoft Confirms Rayman Legends Delay Isn't Down To Development Issues
In other words, they're stabbing fans and their employees in the back for no reason at all. I hope this crushes them. I hope this game flops hard.
Re: New Competition To Celebrate Etrian Odyssey IV: Legends of the Titan Demo Now Open
Can someone explain how we would take this screenshot on the 3DS and then post it on twitter? I really want to enter but have no idea how to do that.
Re: Ubisoft: Nintendo Will Make "Necessary Changes" To Wii U
Sounds like he's eager to shove a stick back up where the sun don't shine.
Re: The Next Assassin's Creed Game Will Star A New Hero
This is the 6th game... 7th if you count Liberation. But 6th main console game.
But screw them. Ubisoft has lost my business.
