I've watched streamers play this and it seems quite enjoyable. It feels like it's Monster Hunter that doesn't take itself too seriously. The fact that it's free is really nice, too.
What songs do you hope will be present? I love Smashing to "Go K.K. Rider!" and "7:00 PM - 8:00 PM" from Animal Crossing. I'm sure they'll be in again.
I think it'd be neat if they could add some of Theophany's mixes from Majora's Mask.
And since Rathalos is present, it'd be nice to get at least a main theme from Monster Hunter.
I've been playing the crap out of this game a lot lately. It checks so many boxes for me. I wish more people played online. The multiplayer matches can take a while to fill up (if they ever fill up, that is).
@Joeynator3000 That would be awesome. I think Fortune Street is one of those gems no one gives a chance because they compare it to Monopoly. But the strategy couldn't be more different!
The last time I used the Web browser on my Wii U, it was to go to Nintendo.com. From there, I was forced to a page that suggest I check the eShop for the latest in video games. I was unable to get to the main Nintendo domain at all.
@lilpieri I've been thinking along similar lines. Ever since New Leaf came out, I regret not getting it digitally. Same for Fire Emblem. I'm not sure if I'll pull the trigger on replacing them, even with a sale, but I am more than primed to go digital on many 3DS games in the future.
I am very very excited for this news and await for it to be announced for NA. Just new tracks alone seems like a big deal to me. But we're going to get new tracks, new karts, and new characters? Big big deal!
I loved this game in that the characters you built up and cared about in the first one are now spoiler alert the enemy!
Of course, it was only temporary but really let me know that not all video games had to be so one-dimensional with their storytelling. It's another instant-buy for me when it's released.
I first learned of this game when it was made available on Google Play. It sounded interesting but not enough to want to spend time playing it on my phone. I do plan on purchasing it for my Wii U, though. The interest is still there.
But, like sinalefa, this is a game celebrating 20 years and I've only recently heard of it.
I have recently began obsessing like an idiot over the Assassin's Creed games. I watched my brother play them for years and they didn't appeal. Only in playing for myself did I begin to appreciate them.
I loved this game when it came out and I look forward to purchasing it for the Wii U VC. I am curious to learn if the vibration feature was implemented in this version. Back in the GameCube days when you played this game on the Game Boy Player, the cartridge knew that and it would vibrate the GameCube controller.
I received Metroid Prime Trilogy as a Christmas gift when it was released, and I snatched up Xenoblade new when it came out. It's simply a fantastic game.
I now wait and see what these other "vintage" titles are going to be.
People get so bent out of shape here, and carry high expectations. But I am thrilled to be getting Wario's Woods and Sudoku! I initially thought Mario Golf would not be for me, but I am having second thoughts. I should expand the kinds of games I play!
@47drift I thought the same thing. I remember when Aura came out a while back and it sounded interesting, and I think Star Fox is a fantastic selection!
My brother and I saved up to buy the GameCube and this game at the same time. I spent hours with it, just trying to get the golds. I still haven't gotten them all, or even half!
Well this is certainly helpful. Redd has been busting my gentles for years! I never thought the rumors about his language and demeanor were true. Now its time to drop some knowledge on the little fox. Of course, I'll probably always buy the paintings and statues anyway
I am really looking forward to this release. It is easily one of my favorite Mario games. I don't understand why so many people seem to dislike it. This is where Shy Guys originated!
This is both unexpected and exciting! I already love the game and everything it has to offer. They just want to make sure I live and die with this game, and that's fine with me.
I still own my original cartridges with the game boxes. These two games were fantastic together! I loved Ages more than Seasons but it almost looks like I am in the minority here I'm not sure I'll purchase these but it's great that other gamers will have that chance.
I've heard a lot of negativity about Other M, but I had no idea Skyward Sword was such a relatively poor seller. I thought Other M took a bold and rewarding approach and Skyward Sword should not have been missed by anyone.
I have never played a Fire Emblem game until this one. Now I regret passing up all the old titles that are so difficult to find (that don't cost a slice of soul). I like these DLC options. They seem to really help define my characters for the main story. I was initially disappointed that I couldn't get that free pack right off the bat as well, but then the Outrealm Gate opened after Chapter 4 and I was fine. Good job, Nintendo

Re: Nintendo Adds Three More Games To The Switch Online NES Library On 12th December
I love Wario's Woods. I've only ever played the NES version so I guess I'm glad I don't know what I'm missing in the SNES version.
Re: Super Smash Bros. Ultimate Will Apparently Only Include Two Final Fantasy Songs

Re: Capcom is Running a Sale on All Monster Hunter Games on the North American eShop
@Rumncoke25 I always play solo. It does take a bit longer to conquer more advanced quests but it's also very rewarding when it happens.
Re: Nintendo Switch Lacks A Web Browser Because It's A "Dedicated Video Game Platform"
The last time I used the Web browser on my Wii U, it was to go to Nintendo.com. From there, I was forced to a page that suggest I check the eShop for the latest in video games. I was unable to get to the main Nintendo domain at all.
Re: Editorial: The 3D Effect - A Smart 3DS Feature That Struggled to Find Its True Depth
I leave my 3D on all the time. For some games, like Monster Hunter 4, it seems to improve the visual quality for me.
Re: Capcom's North American eShop Sale Has Some Tempting Discounts
Both Monster Hunter games are more than worth it. And the demos are not totally indicative of how the game actually plays. Get them and be grateful.
Re: Nintendo's New Response: Some amiibo "Likely" to be Discontinued
I feel lucky in that I found Marth in my local Target on Black Friday. He was the only one I ever saw in the store and now he's posing next to my TV.

Re: Mario Kart 8 Update, Mercedes Karts and DLC Pre-Orders Now Live
Mine auto-updated and it said the two upcoming DLC packs would need approximately 1.0 GB of space each (2.0 GB total)

Re: The Club Nintendo Rewards Are Now Updated for July
If I didn't already have Paper Mario, I would get it again. It's such a charming game. I don't really mind them recycling games.
Re: Another World: 20th Anniversary Edition Releasing on 19th June in North America

Re: Month of Yoshi: Guide for Beginner Yoshi Owners
"This leads some to theorize that the only things Yoshis really, actually eat are small fruits, cookies, and souls."
The mention of souls made me laugh aloud. Terrific piece of humor here, overall!
Re: The Club Nintendo Rewards Are In For March
@brewsky I only remember them offering Majora's Mask as a platinum reward two years ago. Did they offer it before that?
Re: Majora's Mask "Time's End" Music Beautifully Reimagined by Rozen
@Squidzilla I downloaded that album a few weeks ago and have been listening to it ever since. I can't wait until he releases Disc 2.
Re: Review: Turok 2: Seeds of Evil (Nintendo 64)
I used to play this game a lot, long ago. I never finished it but remember thinking that each area being so different from the last was awesome.
And those machine gun-toting gorilla-men used to scare the crap out of me!
Re: GameStop Defends Xenoblade Chronicles Pricing, Plans More "Vintage Titles" Like Metroid Prime Trilogy
I received Metroid Prime Trilogy as a Christmas gift when it was released, and I snatched up Xenoblade new when it came out. It's simply a fantastic game.
I now wait and see what these other "vintage" titles are going to be.

Re: Zelda Game Boy Color Oracle Duo Heading To Western 3DS eShops Before Summer
