Re: Nintendo Direct Confirmed for 14th January, With Focus on Spring Releases

Takerkaneanite6

3 things I want to see-
Mario Maker-Because I am really hyped for this game and what else is new that they didn't show off at E3 or TheGameAwards.
Majoras Mask 3D+New 3DS bundle and release date-It seems like a given that both will go hand in hand. Nintendo would stupid not to allow this to get potential increased New 3DS sales at launch by having a bundle of one of the most requested 3DS releases ever.
Mario Kart 8 May DLC news-At least talk about a new track or two and a new vehicle or at most, a trailer of said things. However, I don't see this happening as the DLC has still a bit of time until release. However, that being said, it's not impossible as it is releasing in Spring and this is what the Direct is about.
What I don't expect to see-
Zelda U and Starfox
On a side note-
Mario Maker-Mario 30th Anniversary game.
E3 2015-Zelda Maker-Zelda 30th Anniversary game???

Re: Super Smash Bros. for Wii U Holds Top 20 Position in UK Charts as Captain Toad: Treasure Tracker Slides

@Dr_Lugae In both of my local GAME, they have equal space for Nintendo, Sony and Microsoft consoles. In one, it's Nintendo on the left side, Sony in the middle and Microsoft on the right as you walk in. In the other, it's Microsoft on the left side, Nintendo in the middle and Sony on the right. The first one also has a stack of Mario Kart 8 Wii U bundles near the counter, on the advertising board that they have outside the store, Mario Kart 8 is featured right in the front of the other franchises with a lot of amiibo on display and my Local Argos has a Wii U demo station that now shows trailers for upcoming and already released games(the E3 trailers for the games shown off that were to be released after E3 2014) with trailers such as Mario Kart 8, Smash Bros for Wii U, Donkey Kong Country Tropical Freeze, Mario Maker, Hyrule Warriors and Zelda U to name a few with a PS4 demo station next to it. So maybe it's just other places that show limited love for Nintendo, but the places that sell games in my local shopping centre here where I live, show plenty of love for the Wii U. Also, last year, I think in March, there was a booth that had both 3DS and Wii U games playable and guess what, more people were at the Wii U side of the station than the 3DS side. There was about 80-90 people there, so I would say it was about 70% of those that were at the Wii U side, with the other 30% on the 3DS side. Seeing this made me extremely happy that at least there was an effort to get the Wii U out there...

Re: Captain Toad: Treasure Tracker Makes Top 20 Chart Début in UK

Captain Toad Treasure Tracker did better in the U.K charts than I expected, I thought it would only reach number 30 or lower, because of the Usual Suspects taking the other high spots, so I am pleasantly surprised, that’s a great thing. On a side note, how is Assassins Creed Unity doing so well, I thought that it is a broken mess.

Re: Video: Teens Race and Talk Smack in Mario Kart 64

@BarryDunne Yeah...I thought 'Hey, I might as well completely embarrass myself to as many people as possible by basicly saying the I couldn't figure out A for Accelerate.' That and it's my only memory about playing this game. This might sound weird, but I only played 2 N64 games when I was 5, Mario Kart 64 and Goldeneye 007. Why I played that at such a young age is beyond me, but hey, I loved playing it...

Re: Video: Teens Race and Talk Smack in Mario Kart 64

I only played Mario Kart 64, once. On Royal Raceway, against 3 other people who had already played the game before. I didn’t even know that the A button was to accelerate, I watched the other people and their left hand was on the Z button on the bottom of the controller, so I thought that was the accelerate button, I was wrong. Before anybody verbally destroys me for being a complete idiot, there is one thing that I wish to say, A, I was only 5 and B. I never played a racing game of any kind before then. When I saw that Royal Raceway was returning in Mario Kart 8, my first reaction was, ‘yes, I finally get my redemption!!!’

Re: Reminder: The Nintendo Network Premium Promotion Ends on 31st December

Takerkaneanite6

@Grumblevolcano Thanks for that!!! I just checked and I have 469 points because of a few Virtual Console games and Mario Kart 8 DLC, Smash Bros should push me way past 31 more points, so I'll redeem my code when I recieve it tomorrow. If the option to link this with my 3DS through linking my Nintendo Network ID, then I would have a ton more points from downloading full retail games, like Smash Bros 3DS, Animal Crossing New Leaf, Ocarina of Time 3D, A Link Between Worlds, Mario and Luigi Dream Team Bros, Beyblade Evolution, 3D Sonic the Hedgehog and a ton of Virtual Console games. O.H well, no point dewelling on what could have been...

Re: Weirdness: Sony Uses Art From Super Smash Bros. To Celebrate 20 Years Of PlayStation

I think that as long as Capcom doesn't mind them using an image of Megaman that appeared on a Nintendo system, then I don't think anybody should mind, but if Capcom does have a problem (which I don't think that they will,) then Sony will simplely need to change it to a Megaman image that has appeared on a Playstation system. However, I have a feeling that the creator of this decided to cut corners and use the first image that He or She found on Google Images...
