@rjejr it isn't like W101. Think a little more like Mario 64. You are right about the environments though, they are all very same-y, I get lost a lot of times because I can't tell where I am since everything looks the same. That is really my only complaint. There are dots to guide you a lot of times though.
I really liked the first one. No, it isn't the greatest game in the world. It is just a nice throwback 3D action game, similar to games from the Nintendo 64 days.
@noctowl Sure, here goes: the secret is that I bought games.. As a bonus, I got coins. Didn't pay for a single coin. The club rewards are a bonus on top of the games that I pay for.
Hopefully all of these terrible comments don't cause Nintendo to discontinue the program, otherwise the games that are bought will no longer come with free coins that earn Club members free gifts.
@vitalemrecords But we are talking about the club, not the world in general, right? I'll take your download code since it offends you. Get Earthbound for me, I got my free Game And Wario already.
@vitalemrecords Very weird definition of payment. I have always paid for games and received free items through the Club. I've never paid for a Club giift.
In any case, I encourage you to not waste your time filling out surveys or registering items that you buy since you don't get anything for free.
@Prof_Clayton It seems to make good business sense to me that they are using the club to push people to new hardware. They haven't made money in years, it is about time that they start using their resources to start doing so.
Amazed. I remember up until yesterday when everyone wanted Earthbound but it was said that wasn't likely because it was a "blip" for Nintendo. the Internets are always disappointed with their free things.
As for me, I've got to try to decide which I'm getting, there are 4 there that I want and don't have; Game and Wario, NES Remix, Earthbound and Dr. Luigi.
I guess having a PS4 in addition to my Wii U makes me not really care, but I doubt I'll get it until after a whole lot of review and videos of gameplay are out anyway. The extremely generic title and delays make me worried about the quality of time. This just gives me more time with MK8 anyway, which I seriously doubt Project Cars is going to replace in my house for quite done time.
I'm ok with properly done dlc, but not advertising. I came back to Nintendo because I got tired of the violence on other platforms, and the constant ads and nags for money on mobile.
Nintendo does everything to be different and unique. This is one of the ways they have done so and should continue.
It only sounds complicated because it is different. For the same-old-same-old, yearly release dudebro games, please see the consoles brought to you by the numbers One and Four
@raghouse lol, it would be strangely ironic if they don't manufacture them. They consider themselves to be a toy company and in fact were for the first ~70 years of their existence (well, cards and toys).
Notice he says "sharing with friends." I bet it is going to be restrictive, at least in the start, to share to everyone. Still, I like that they are taking their time to get things right. Lbp, for example, can be a mess finding anything worth playing.
They did everything that everyone waanted, except maybe for a complete merging of 3DS and WII U accounts (and VC games). However, 1 thing put them way over to "INCREDIBLE!" for me.
Splatoon.
Totally out of nowhere, unexpectred, and looks amazing.
Really looking forward to getting some of these. I've been extremely impressed with the quality of the Disney Infinity characters, hop these are just as good, or even better!
I think this is the only thing Nintendo said all of E3 that I disagree with. Who cares if someone else doesn't like it? If Twitch will make the client, and Nintendo doesn't have to take of the infrastructure, why not allow it for the people that do like it?
I think first person shooters aren't fun. I hope Nintendo gets tons of first person shooters on their platforms, because it raises diversity and sells more units.
@Chouzetsu just wishing out loud. There have been rumors that Mario may be in the Wreck It Ralph sequel movie. I am just saying they could reciprocate by putting Ralph in SSMB, similar to how Sonic was in the movie, and in return Ralph was in Sonic Racing Transformed.
I don't know if it is because this was a complete surprise announcement, or if it is really as good as it seems to me right now, but this is the game I'm most excited about from all of E3 so far. Nintendo killed it today!
The people who complain about the Gamepad wouldn't be buying a Wii U either way. Nintendo, as it has from the d-pad to the analog stick to touch to 3D is always providing new ways to play. The new item always makes a good target for any blame.
I'll stick to playing in new ways. Everyone that doesn't like it can stick to "trafitional" consoles with yearly dude-bro games that will copy the current Nintendo features after a few years, like always.

@ModernMARVEL Not open world, though there are multiple levels open most of the time. There is also an overworked, it is their school.
NL did a review of it, it is very positive. The 3DS and Wii U games are completely different though.

Re: Nintendo Goes Download-Only With The 2014 Club Nintendo Elite Rewards
@vitalemrecords Because they aren't in the business of not making money, and probably chose the gifts they did for strategic reasons?

@Crimzonlogic You don't have to download it this second. Just choose it and get your code.

I'll definitely be getting Platinum this year again! Smash, Toad, Bayonetta, Hyrule all for me!
Re: Ubisoft Runs Another eShop Discount Bonanza in North America
I sure am going to miss those unreleased shovel wars titles that Ubisoft aren't going to release for the Wii U.

Re: First Impressions: Getting Creative With Mario Maker
@Jared1984 it hasn't hurt LittleBigPlanet, and there are millions of levels available for that.
Playing amateur levels made with a limited toolset is a very, very different thing than playing a full Nintendo game.

Re: Mario Kart 8 Toys Boosting Into McDonald's Happy Meals
Cool, will be going to the McD's across the street every day to get these and Miis, because they have a relay there!
Re: E3 2014: Nintendo Planning To Release Amiibo Figures for Entire Super Smash Bros. Roster
Death Stare Luigi should be in the first group.

Really looking forward to getting some of these. I've been extremely impressed with the quality of the Disney Infinity characters, hop these are just as good, or even better!
Re: AiRace Xeno
Looks pretty decent, I wasn't aware of the other games. May have to pick it up.

Re: Video: Prepare To Pour One Out For Sega's Fallen Child Stars
Love this! I always hoped Billy Hatcher could be a mascot. Miss the original Pac Man.
Re: Feature: All Of The Vital Super Smash Bros. Roundtable Details, As Pac-Man Joins The Fight
@luigifan624 no joke, getting the real, classic PacMan made the most sense since they are getting the classic characters together!
Re: Feature: All Of The Vital Super Smash Bros. Roundtable Details, As Pac-Man Joins The Fight
@Chouzetsu just wishing out loud. There have been rumors that Mario may be in the Wreck It Ralph sequel movie. I am just saying they could reciprocate by putting Ralph in SSMB, similar to how Sonic was in the movie, and in return Ralph was in Sonic Racing Transformed.
Re: Feature: All Of The Vital Super Smash Bros. Roundtable Details, As Pac-Man Joins The Fight
Hoping they add Wreck It Ralph and in exchange put Mario in the WIR sequel movie!
