@Einherjar I only care if they sell enough to deliver the highest quality games around...

And so it begins..........

As long as the Wii U version is as good as it can be, then I don't mind the extra wait between Wii U and 3DS versions...Remember, Miyamoto once said something along the lines of, A delayed game can be good, bit a rushed game will be bad forever, sorry if I screwed it up, if anybody knows exactly what he said, then don't hesitate to correct me...

Thank you Zen Studios for your continuing support of the Wii U, as a Wii U owner since launch, it is refreshing to hear about a third party studio NOT ditching Wii U support...

@ThomasBW84 There are 4 apparent unused track icons in Mario Kart 8. Here's the link:http://i.imgur.com/eu0He1r.png

Mario Kart 8-that is all I need...

@Lebon14 The main engine for the game is already done through the Ocarina of Time 3D engine, just like the N64 version is based off of the Ocarina of Time 64 engine. Plus I've noticed that N64 games usually get redone on handhelds(Super Mario 64 DS, Starfox 64 3D, Ocarina of Time 3D) And Gamecube games get redone on consoles(Pikmin 1 and 2 on Wii with new control option, Windwaker HD,) But I get what you mean, console game remakes should stay on consoles and handheld remakes should stay on handheld...

Congratulations to Nintendo and Sony for making the list. Not really surprising because they ARE Japanese companies. Also, no Level 5??? Surprising considering the tremendous success of both Yo-Kai Watch games...

@MoonKnight7 True, but if other developers release some RPGs on Wii U, maybe the Wii U will increase quite a bit. Granted, not as much as a Handheld RPG would...

@MoonKnight7 Or at peast convince them to release a new Yokai Watch game for Wii U, now that and 1 or 2 more RPGs would significantly increase Wii U sales in Japan...

My body is ready, my wallet......nah, not so much.....

@ModestFan93 Not even texture hacks that only shows up on the screen of the hacker???

To all haters, not all hacks are bad, if you check out his channel, he has uploaded a rather neat texture HACK for Thwomp Ruins. For this, there's no denying that the effect is truely stunning...

In the Wii era, they promoted the Wii Remote and motion control as the standard controller killer and it worked.
So if Nintendo promoted the Gamepad as a Tablet killer, then it may not make the Wii U the best selling console this generation, but it will certainly help get kids to understand the Gamepad more and they may ask their parents to buy a Wii U for them.
Just my Two Cents...

Probably going to get a lot of hate for this, but I prefer Wind Waker, more specifically the Wii U HD remake Then Ocarina Of Time. I appologise to all that like Ocarina Of Time the best. Not saying Ocarina Of Time is a bad game, I like it, but I prefer Wind Waker to it and even Link's Awakening on Gameboy Colour, probably because Link's Awakening DX was my first Zelda game........

A.W.E.S.O.M.E

To be honest with you, this seems more like a potential perperial for their next console, rather than a gimmick, but that's just what I think........

Speaking of Smash Bros. Am I the only one that based on the Palutena reveal at the end of the Digital Event wants a Smash Bros. Anime/Cartoon???

If everybody has a problem with how the video has been done in terms of face in front of footage, then just listen to the audio in the background or if you are on a mobile device, listen through headphones while you are doing something else, like a podcast. I do this when listening to a Gamexplain discusion video while working in the shop........

I hope that this will come to the UK......

Great to see Mario Kart 8 in the Top 5 again. I did my bit Day 1 when I bought the Blue Shell edition with Mario Kart 8 wheel attatchment as a pre-order bonus at GAME. I suspect that both versions of UFC will drop down the charts next week with Watchdogs and Mario Kart 8 overtaking it. And for those wondering why Ubisoft will release the Wii U version of Watchdogs later than the other versions, it's most likely because they wanted the install base on Wii U increase as much as it can because of Mario Kart 8 before releasing it...

Sigh............I swear that not everybody here in the U.K is a complete moron.............. I think this judge needs to do his research on what's what in terms of the patent in question and the specifics of the device, in this case, the Wii, with how the technology actually functions before he made his decision, because it's pretty obvious that the judge is clueless about this entire situation......

Anybody that ISN'T touched by this has a heart of stone. This is really touching and I hope little Patrick gets well soon...:'D

@Tsurii897 In England, there is actually a wedding catering company named G.A.Y.L.O.R.D, this is exactly how they named it, since 1966....

@LEGENDnoONE Wooly Yoshi is inspired by Kirby's Epic Yarn, a Wii game. Also, you're implying that Nintendo copied from Little Big Planet, what does that make the Little Big Planet karting game on PS3, a copy, in the attempts of capitislising on Mario Kart Wii's success, I rest my case....................

1.Seems legit 2.The only Fifa game I have ever played was Fifa 10 on Wii, it cost £5 and was terrible, I only put 10 minuites into it 3.It's EA, what do you expect..............

@King47 You don't have to eat there to get it, you can order a drink or something and ask to buy them separately, that's what I did with the Mario ones when they were in the UK...

I upgraded to Wii U because I don't need a subscription service to play online, it is convenient to use the Gamepad for Youtube and off t.v play, it's cheaper, the first party games are far superior and it is the only one off the three that is significatly different to it's predicessor in more ways than just the graphics...

@Dreamcaster-X Thanks to you as well...

@SanderEvers O.K, thanks for the quick reply...

I'm going to stay optimistic and say that Wii U sales will increase quite a bit and then continue saleing relatively well over the coming weeks, then sales will dip slightly while Mario Kart continues to sale well...

R.I.P Wi-Fi on Wii and DS, I loved the online on Mario Kart Wii, didn't lag a lot, but I'm Wondering, can anybody answer this, will local multiplayer on DS still work, or is that going as well???

This person that complained about lack of diversity in skin colour clearly hasn't heard of a Mii. Also, half the roster is comprised of animal characters and 5 characters are Babies, if anything, real life logic would cross my mind WAY before a character's skin colour.
This is just as mind numbingly stupid as PETA targeting Pokèmon for animal cruelty and Mario 3D Land for the Tanooki Suit with their parody game.
In other words...IT'S JUST A GAME, nobody I have seen on Youtube, or seen posting about Mario Kart 8 on Miiverse has complained about how no characters have dark skin, or non white skin.
In Conclusion, the skin colour gripe is completely irrational, Mario Kart is a game to be enjoyed by the whole family, no matter whether they are Black, White, Asian or like myself, Indian.
Am I right???

Yay, Mario is a better seller than Fifa, if Fifa had beaten Mario, then I would have lost faith in humanity...

Facepalm I guess it's that time of the week again...................

Those software numbers, holy geez the 3DS dominated. Also, Mario Kart 7 is there, a clear sign that Japan is HYPED for Mario Kart 8...

Two words:flipping awesome!!!!!

@Ootfan98 Yeah, maybe with Bowser Jr, Birdo and Diddy Kong included...

Ludwig all the way in terms of the new characters, Yoshi for the veteran Karters:)

Congratulations all North American gamers for this Mario Kart 8 bundle. Hope you enjoy the Blue Shell...

Nice for Germany, I hope they like it...

Awesome, I'm an Indian born and living in England and it would be awesome if I'd be able to talk to my relatives in India through Miiverse if availible, but for China, they should release the Wii U and 3DS there to increase sales and get to meet sales targets, because China is such a big country, just a thought........

To be honest with you, it should have been Pokèmon themed, maybe for a Wii U Pokemon game that literally encourges you to 'Catch Em All.' Thoughts???

Advertising for smartphone/tablet users, well done Nintendo

*Advertise

If Anything, The People Here In The U.K Need To Broaden Their Game Choices, To Much Call Of Duty And Rehashed Fifa, I've Played Fifa 11 That Came With My PSP And Fifa 13 Demo On Wii U And They Both Feel The Exact Same. But The Main Problem I've Found Is A Lack Of Advertising In The U.K, I've Seen A Total Of 3 Wii U Adverts Since Launch, One Advertising The Wii U, One For New Super Mario Bros U And One For Mario 3D World, They Need To Advertising The Living Daylights Out Of Mario Kart 8 To Build Up Hype For The Game And To Convince People To Buy A Wii U, I've Owned A Wii U Since Launch And Am Excited For Mario Kart 8, So I Don't Need Convincing

Super Mario 3D World Sold Almost As Many Copies As Nintendo Land,Even Though It Released One Year After, A Testament To The Quality Of The Game

@memoryman3 Hype From Fans And Advertising

@memoryman3 Without First Party Games, Thrid Party Games Aren't Really Important

@Nik-Davies In Fairness, Every Site Has At Least ONE Troll On It, This Troll Doesn't Bother Me, His Reasons Are Irrational Anyway. Also, I Like The Wii U, That's All That Bothers Me
