I'll be the one to say it. This is bull.

Porting it is one thing. Delaying it to September? You just lost my business, Ubi. Wow.

Change it to Shenmue 3 and I'll be excited.

The difficulty could also be in Square Enix's inability to produce any quality games. They've turned FF into a damn joke.

I cared about Ice Climbers WAY before Smash Bros. was a concept. Lame review.

@Chunky_Droid Oh, a reference to that terrible joke that the mainstream media used to make stupid people think poorly of Romney.

How the hell did that last until 2010?? A tip hotline is so 80s...

Puddle is now a sure thing for me at $7.99. I was expecting it to be $15!

THE KLOBB

Wait, is Fire Emblem actually available now? If I wanted to download, I wouldn't have to wait until next Tuesday?

@Jellitoe Hell no. Call of Doody is worthless.

It doesn't seem to let me choose USA.

Nobody cares about this garbage game.

The problem is that parents/grandparents who have no idea what to buy see these things and think they're getting a great deal because there are 30 games. To protect their image, Nintendo should be stopping the release of stuff like this. Make the Seal of Quality mean something again.

That's an awesome picture.

You should totally just get the download for the same amount of money even though you're getting less out of it. >_>

Hey, they don't want to screw it up for the fellas out there with old tvs! ^_^

That's the problem with going digital with Nintendo. They're making some progress, but still aren't giving you the deals that they should.

It kinda sucks when Thursday comes and the "announcement" of new games is stuff that we've already downloaded yesterday!

Japan gets Fire Emblem and Earthbound?!?

Buying this is a forgone conclusion. My only question is whether I should play this tonight before getting into Ni No Kuni.

The only question is should I start playing The Cave tonight before starting Ni No Kuni?

Yay!!!

I don't want Vita to flop, so if this would help it, I want it to be true.

@Barbiegurl777 This is nothing like the licensed LEGO games. I have no interest in those but this should be awesome.

This probably means the Wii U version will be delayed.

Looks like I'll be buying every Wii U eShop game...

The Cave should be amazing for sure. DoubleFine is pure quality.

It looks like it could be awesome, but I don't care for any of the 3 launch movies. There should be some classic Disney stuff in there.

They have a great concept with Epic Mickey, but it shouldn't be based around painting and thinning. That was the gimmick of the first game, but it should have been something different the second time around. And the painting is just so terrible in the 3DS game. Someone with more creativity should take charge of the franchise and make it something great.

Screw Activision. They were good in the Atari days but now they represent the worst of the gaming industry. They run every franchise into the ground with their yearly (sometimes more) releases. I look forward to Disney killing their garbage Skylanders franchise.

This is good to know. I guess I'll wait on any potential VC purchases until they get their act together.

@Gamesake Sony has by far had the best exclusives of this gen.

@0LD_SK0OL_PUNK Wow I forgot about those commercials.

I just wish they would wait until some damn games come out before they do their little "analyzations." I don't like the game drought either but it is what it is. If Rayman Legends and Pikmin 3 underperform, THEN write these articles.

@Moshugan The low software rate is just because the big ports are games that we already bought on other systems. Mario has almost a 70% attach rate, which is huge, and ZombiU did really big sales. Other than that, there's still not anything really worth buying. Games will sell more when something actually comes out.

I think it has a ton of appeal, it's just a matter of getting the controller in people's hands. Once they play with it, they realize how cool it is.

@NinFreak The Wonderful 101 is probably the best looking Wii U exclusive that we know about...

Wow... reading this, I thought it was the good Walking Dead game that everyone raves about. Now I realize it's just some Activision crap. How disappointing.

Those numbers for Yakuza 5 don't seem too good.

Nano Assault Neo needs a sale. Then I'll own all the eshop games.

@erv It's something for nothing, like all reward programs. You shouldn't be buying things you don't want just to get points, but it's a nice extra for things you're already buying.

Has Nintendo hinted if there will be Gamecube VC games or is everyone just expecting it? That would be great for me since I skipped that system.

Good!

Nintendo to announce they will be breeding real life Pokemon to buy as pets.

"quite a big week"
> no wii u

>_____>

Lots of good stuff, but I'm getting tired of there being nothing new for Wii U. I can't believe after over a month, it's still just the same games in there as launch day.

Will there be an update for America this week or is it pre-empted because of Christmas?

It's funny reading this with Cake Ninja ads plastered all over the screen.

Nintendo keeps shooting themselves in the feet by naming their systems this way. 3DS seemed like yet another revision of the DS, so it took a long time for sales to pick up. Now, casuals think Wii U is just a new controller for the Wii, and Nintendo NEEDS those casuals.
