Look on the bright side; if Nintendo isn't giving the Wii U a Nintendo Direct, the Wii U will probably have more time at E3 where it can make more of a splash.
Fun fact: The reason why Mother 3 wasn't localized is because it wouldn't sell overseas. I think if Nintendo made a cool mature title, they could win over some US consumers.
If the Wii U is getting THIS bad of a reception, then Nintendo must've been planning this all along. Keep user interest low and then drop the bomb at E3.
The patents on the CD consoles need to expire first before they can make a clone out of them. I don't see that happening anytime soon, even the N64 won't have its patents expiring until 2015.
I'd gladly take Yoshi out of the campaign for Earthbound, as I'm sure all of us would. Punch-Out is probably my favorite on the list, along with Kirby.
Great. That means that there will be countless people putting unnecessary rules on each match. I don't want to fight every match on Final Destination using 'balanced' characters with no items.
I'm not surprised that, like, 40% of the commentors are really mad that Earthbound isn't coming to the Wii U. Just sayin', but to bring it to America, Nintendo would have to go tripping over their heels getting the localization issues out of the way.
I got mine for 30 dollars (the normal silver version) and it came with 3 face-plates, one was pink, one was black, and the last was black with blue flames (I think). I lost the charger though, and I ordered a new one from Amazon that seems to be taking it's sweet time getting here.
