Well when you look at the statistics and play calling, the NFL looks like one big RPG/RTS game. In fact, Football is becoming more popular worldwide in places like Japan for its focus on a strategic play style and overall appeal.
The ability to post anything you want to others and video chat with old men you've never met as the Nintendo Direct webcast suggests, seems like a pretty big move for Nintendo with them enforcing parental controls so heavily on past consoles. Looks neat, though.
I wish Nintendo would stop with the New Super Mario series. I don't find them as entertaining as the classics and quite frankly, the series is getting old, fast.
I used to be a fan of the series, but all of the spin-offs that were practically identical, and the really dumb story turned me away from the series. I do like the setting for this one though, and I'm sure it's going to be one of the better Wii U titles near launch, (if near launch) so I'll check it out.
Well that isn't surprising. The eShop doesn't have a system for determining the age of buyers other than the buyer giving their age. (Which is always a lie to make things quicker) If Nintendo did let a game like this slide, they'd get tons of negative coverage from the media. Remember, some people believe that Pokemon are satanic demons that promote evolution and bash religion even though there's no signs of that anywhere in the game. So imagine what the press would do if Nintendo allowed a game that is a twisted, gruesome take on a biblical story on a kid-friendly handheld. It would seriously hurt Nintendo's reputation.
Didn't vote for any of the winners (except Four Swords), which was expected because I didn't vote for the obvious favorites Zelda, Pushmo, or 3D Land in their respected categories. Guess I have different taste. (And there was no way Ghost Trick was going to win Game of the Year, but I'm surprised that it wasn't a runner up in the DS category and Rayman wasn't a runner up in the Wii category.)
I saw Home Alone (First One), Christmas Vacation(The Cat), Bad Santa (Drinking Santa), Jack Frost or Frosty (I think the one with the snowman), Gremlins (With Gizmo), A Wonderful Life (The one with the guy running past a bank), and Trading Places(Stock Graph).
What do they think they are doing!? Don't they know that's how you get cooties!? Anyway, I'm not too fond of that soundtrack. It doesn't sound very memorable.
I really don't understand why "Do a Barrel Roll" is always said when talking about Star Fox. There were much better one-liners in the game than that one.
I'm thinking they'll put up: Pokemon Fire Red/Leaf Green or Pokemon Pinball R/S Minish Cap Wario Land 4 Kirby and the Amazing Mirror Mario and Luigi Superstar Saga It would be neat though if they also put up some GBA games that required tilt controls such as Yoshi Topsy-Turvy and Warioware Twisted. Some imports wouldn't hurt either, such as Rhythm Tengoku.
If they are going to be ported, the only thing I can see being added that would really enhance the games would be Higher-Quality Music, HD cut scenes, and if they could, add voice acting to all dialog. Then the port would be worth it.
Seems normal for a Japanese game. There has to be quite a few games there that feature underage school girls, fighting demons, with constant up skirts and huge hooters by now.
THIS GAME IS EVIL!!! BURN IT IN FIRE!!! Just kidding. I really don't understand why this one save file thing is starting to aggravate everyone now. It has been going on in many games for awhile now.
@Nukeprime64 Yeah, but the main difference if that those characters are resistant to forms of gunfire and explosions when they have their powers. Hulk is also incredibly strong, can destroy practically anything, lift anything, and jump extremely long distances. Iron Man has access to missiles, flight, super strength, and gun fire on his suit. And Thor can shoot thunder, fly, smash anything with his hammer, and is a God. All Captain America is, is a Man in top physical condition with a shield. Thus, if he stopped exercising and ate poorly he'd get out of shape and just like any other man on steroids and lose his "powers". (It was also a joke)
@Jango-Forest Nothing, he was injected with essentially "Super Steroids", and that gave him super strength, athleticism, and acrobatic abilities. He also has a bullet proof shield. So in reality all someone would need to do is take away his shield to defeat him because all of his weaknesses are the same as a normal human's. Either that or they could force feed him junk food.

Re: Final Fantasy's Battle System Is Based On American Football

Re: Chasing Aurora 'Freeze Tag' Mode Gameplay Footage
The single player footage was more appealing, but there isn't anything wrong with having more modes.
Re: Witness Layton's 'Last Adventure' In New 3DS Trailer
I'm getting some Castle in the Sky vibes here.
Re: Ace Attorney 5 Confirmed To Be Hitting The Courtroom on 3DS
Awesome. Can't wait to play Professor Layton vs. Ace Attorney and Ace Attorney 5 in 2014 and 2015 respectively.
Re: Catch the North American Nintendo Direct Live Here
Professor Layton confirmed for release this year and I will have a bigger screen to play it on. That's all I care about.
Re: Wii U Power Lacks a 'Generational Leap'
So basically the Wii U is the equivalent to the DreamCast? Does this mean we get another Shenmue game now?
Re: E3 2012: Every 3DS Game Announced So Far
No Professor Layton localization yet? That's the most disappointing thing to come out of this E3 thus far.
Re: E3 2012: SiNG is Nintendo's All-Singing, All-Dancing Wii U Game
$60 song lyrics? Sounds like a 1 million unit seller to me...unfortunately.
Re: E3 2012: Project P-100 Unites Platinum Games with Nintendo
Definitely one of my most anticipated Launch games. Platinum Games is one of my favorite developers of the past 5 years.
Re: E3 2012: Watch the Nintendo Press Conference Live Here
Everything was fine until after the 3DS showing,then everything went downhill.
Re: E3 2012: Watch the Nintendo Press Conference Live Here
They are pushing this NintendoLand thing for much longer than it should be pushed.

Re: Be Careful When Watching This Kid Icarus Medusa Trailer
I'm still not sold on this game. Something about just doesn't appeal to me. I am still buying it, but I'm not getting my hopes up.
Re: Kid Icarus 3D Anime Hits North America This Week
I would've preferred Shaun the Sheep. I love stop motion animation.
Re: Assassin's Creed III is Coming to Wii U
I used to be a fan of the series, but all of the spin-offs that were practically identical, and the really dumb story turned me away from the series. I do like the setting for this one though, and I'm sure it's going to be one of the better Wii U titles near launch, (if near launch) so I'll check it out.

Re: Game of the Year: You Decide!
Wii: Rayman Origins
3DS: Mario Kart
DS: Ghost Trick
WiiWare: Bit Trip Flux
3DSware: Mighty Switch Force
DSiWare: Four Swords
Overall: Ghost Trick
Re: WarioWare Takes Christmas Movies and Makes Them Better

Re: Review: Wario World (GameCube)
One of the only things I remember from the time I rented the game back when it first came out is how terrible the final boss fight was.
Re: Zelda Gets All Lovey-Dovey in Skyward Sword Trailer
What do they think they are doing!? Don't they know that's how you get cooties!?
Anyway, I'm not too fond of that soundtrack. It doesn't sound very memorable.
Re: Review: 3D Classics: TwinBee (3DSWare)
I have this game on the Konami Arcade Collection on the DS. If I recall correctly, it was the game I played the most out of all the games available.
Re: Mario Tennis 3DS Screenshots Are a Smash Hit
Wow, it even uses the same voices and sound effects as Power Tennis.
Re: Mario Tennis Smashing Onto 3DS
YES!!! Mario Tennis on the 64 is the best Mario sports game to ever be released.
Re: Analogue Stick Add-On for 3DS Revealed
That just looks odd. Not only does it make the system larger and uneven, but that control stick is tiny.
Re: Round Table: Looking Back at the Star Fox Series
I really don't understand why "Do a Barrel Roll" is always said when talking about Star Fox. There were much better one-liners in the game than that one.

Re: Kirby Makes His Return to Dreamland on 24th October
The game is rated E10...Must be violent.
Re: Review: Xenoblade Chronicles (Wii)
Meh, it ain't perfect, but I'll look into it if it comes out here.
Re: Talking Point: What Was the Best Super NES Game Ever?
Super Mario World 2 and Super Metroid are tied as my favorites. Then followed by Super Mario World and DKC.
Re: Wii Owners Encounter Xenoblade Disc Read Errors
I've never had problems with dual-layered disc, and I've had my Wii since launch. This is all news to me.
Re: Nintendo Download: 18th August 2011 (North America)
Awesome, Urban Champion is mine. I figured out how to pull off a monster 1-hit-combo in the original.
Re: Mario & Sonic London 2012 Trailer is Suitably Rousing
Why in the world are DK and Silver paired up together?
Re: Resi Revelations Trailer Features Classic Voice Acting
That voice acting is absolutely terrible...I love it!
Re: Wii Budget Range Grows with Super Mario Galaxy and More
Strikers and Paper Mario for me.
Re: Nintendo Download: 18th August 2011 (Europe)
I sure hope Nintendo releases 3D Classics: Urban Champion in America this week and nothing else.
Re: Kirby Mass Attack Trailer Storms the Stronghold of Your Brain
Why are wizards always casting spells on Kirby that change his form?
Re: Feature: 3DS Games Worth Buying Before Mario
Just Star Fox and Pokemon for me.
Re: Rumour: Punch-Out!! and Three Marios Join Nintendo Selects
That would be fantastic. I really want to repurchase Super Paper Mario and Strikers again, but they are nearly impossible to find new for a low price.
Re: You Can Buy Your Zelda Symphony Tickets Today
Too bad I'd have to fly across the country to see it.
Re: Renegade Kid Shopping ATV Wild Ride 3D to Publishers
If your body turns into an uncontrollable rag doll when you crash, similar to the Motorstorm and MX vs ATV games, I'm in.
Re: Talking Point: The GBA Games You Want on 3DS Virtual Console
I'm thinking they'll put up:
Pokemon Fire Red/Leaf Green or Pokemon Pinball R/S
Minish Cap
Wario Land 4
Kirby and the Amazing Mirror
Mario and Luigi Superstar Saga
It would be neat though if they also put up some GBA games that required tilt controls such as Yoshi Topsy-Turvy and Warioware Twisted. Some imports wouldn't hurt either, such as Rhythm Tengoku.
Re: Metal Gear Solid 3D Delayed to 2012 in Australia
I didn't even know the game was supposed to be released this year.
Re: Level-5 May Consider Wii U Professor Layton Ports
If they are going to be ported, the only thing I can see being added that would really enhance the games would be Higher-Quality Music, HD cut scenes, and if they could, add voice acting to all dialog. Then the port would be worth it.
Re: There's Nothing Suggestive About This Video At All
Seems normal for a Japanese game. There has to be quite a few games there that feature underage school girls, fighting demons, with constant up skirts and huge hooters by now.
Re: Uh Oh, Now Namco Goes for Single 3DS Save File
THIS GAME IS EVIL!!! BURN IT IN FIRE!!!
Just kidding. I really don't understand why this one save file thing is starting to aggravate everyone now. It has been going on in many games for awhile now.

Re: Review: Captain America: Super Soldier (Wii)
The 360 version of the game is pretty good, too. (And it is developed by Next Level Games)
