Navi: HEY! LISTEN! We're now passing by the main square of Hyrule where trade and commerce take center stage of our kingdom's economic activity. HEY! LISTEN! Here we now have-
Link: HAH! YAH! HRUAGH! WAHHHH!

Croatia was in FIFA 18's World Cup mode along with several other new countries like Costa Rica, Serbia, Tunisia, Senegal, Panama and Morocco that weren't included in the main game. But during the transition from FIFA 18 to 19, EA didn't include any of them including Croatia. You could just take the Croatian team; Dinamo Zagreb and replace all of their foreign players with Croatian national team members likes of Modric, Rakitic and Lovern, but you can only do this during off-line matches.

I have a major issue with the Chrom amiibo Nintendo shared with me, there's a gaping hole in his chest.

The process of accumulating BP is a lot easier now that you can simply rent a powerful team and achieve a 30 win streak with ease. Plus you need to take part in the Battle Tree if you want to gain access to the Mega-Stones and some decent items you can use in battle.

The save states are perfect for Ogre Battle 64 due to their really LONG battles and some of the NPC allies you have to protect are occasionally content with suicidal attacks that could've been prevented if they waited until they were ready to mount a legitimate assault.

Remember the beta images of Super Mario 64 DS where 4 players could team up together to fight Bowser as Mario, Luigi, Wario and Yoshi? Pepperidge Memberberries remembers.

I still need an explanation on Looker's deceased companions that he mentioned in X/Y and Sun/Moon. Pokemon Generation has been doing an amazing job fleshing out this character, yet I feel like this would be the perfect opportunity to learn about Croagunk and the "Faller" who perished on one of his missions.

Developer: For the 20th anniversary, let's release a spin-off with all of the guest characters from past entries like Link, Heihachi, Darth Vader, KOS-MOS, Ezio and Kratos.
Bandai-Namco: Sounds like it'll take a lot of effort ... let's just release a Pachinko machine, I hear the next Metal Gear game is taking a similar approach and those games are amazing.

@IceAnt573 The Cubs have Munenori Kawasaki, he's just not such a significant player on their roster and his career never did take off after he travelled to North America save for a few good games he had with Toronto.

If you live in Toronto or Chicago chances are that you're probably channelling your anger over the lack of Munenori Kawasaki in this trailer ... much like myself.

Rather than requesting a list of which (sovereign) countries are getting Mario Run, I want Nintendo to submit a list of countries that won't be able to play this game.

The first episode was a thrilling throwback to the entire series, especially with the gameplay footage from Red and Blue in the first minute. The film noir style of the second episode was my favorite, especially the manner of which Looker was treated with his more serious tone.

I don't know about you guys, but I've considered myself a bigger fan of Star Fox Assault over Adventure. Sure the controls for the on-foot missions and some of the missions near the end of the game were pretty bad (especially the mission where you have to snipe those floating enemies in Corneria and the entirety of the second-last level), but the rest of the game was amazing and the multiplayer mode offered the game more value.

Ever since E3 the lack of news almost made me forget about Nintendo Direct, then again it'll likely be updates on upcoming releases and DLC that will be released during Fall and perhaps a brand new game for the Winter season (nothing big, probably just a Mario or Pokemon spin-off).

The biggest problem stems from the need for child or teenage actors to portray Ash or Red. Sure they can get someone in their early 20s to play a 16 year old trainer, but Nintendo will still need a large 3rd party to aid them with the production of their movie. Furthermore, after the hazardous production of Super Mario Brothers the Movie, I fear that the failure of a Pokemon movie could force Nintendo out of the film industry once again much like over two decades ago.

My little brother wanted me to download this game on my Wii U, shortly after I finished the first episode I tried to download the other episodes only to find out that episode 2 wasn't even out. I was baffled and then fairly shocked.

We need cross-platform purchases, otherwise there won't be any incentive to buy Earthbound again just to play it on the go.

Since a majority of players downloaded Red and Yellow version, I decided to get Blue version since it's the least popular. As a result, this will make Meowth, Persian and Magmar rare since hardly anyone bothered getting Blue version, which they are exclusive to.

@antipop621 Word of advice, but Tactics and its remake has countless moments where you'll encounter several drastic difficulty spike as early as the 5th battle. There's even one battle in chapter 3 that if you don't prepare for properly can force you to start from the beginning of the game (mainly due to a poor design choice made by Square-Soft). After chapter 3, the game gets a lot easier once you get some OP characters like Balthier.

I kind of like how the DLC connects the universe of Fates with Awakening. It's interesting to see how the casts of both games communicate with one another and how the worlds are connected together.

Still not as bad as the themes of rape and incest in Fire Emblem Genealogy of the Holy Wars.

I'm just hoping this game becomes similar to Attack of the Saiyans, which was developed by Monolith Studios.

Generation 5 was a risky gambit that ultimately paid off with the release of Black and White. Sure Ruby and Sapphire forced you to use a lot of the new Pokemon (unless you were fine with a Zubat or Geodude early on), but with Black and White you could not get any other Gen 1-4 Pokemon until you defeat the champion. I enjoyed my playthrough of Black since it forced the players to adapt to a new region while offering a compelling story that offers a lot of character development and insights to a topic that almost everyone ignored. I think N may potentially represent Pokemon's greatest character since he's a friend, rival, villain and champion all in one package. Heck, he's one of the few trainers to actually capture and use a legendary Pokemon to battle your team. Although Black 2 and White 2 did miss the opportunity to tell a compelling story, the enhanced difficulty and challenge mode makes the main story rather challenging and the being able to battle ALL the champions of all 5 generations made up for the absent of the Battle Frontier.

Here comes the rumours and "leaks."

Got to compliment Kumazaki for his amazing artwork especially with the inclusion of many of my favorite Kriby villains such as Dark Matter, Grill, Marx, Drawcia and Magolor. Now if only we can get another Kirby game on the Wii U similar to Return to Dreamland.

What about that time Reggie fired Bill? Someone on YouTube called MasterEnex turned it into a Fire Emblem death sequence.

I'm just hoping we get Hardin in both his cavalier/paladin and emperor form. Honestly, Hardin was more memorable as a villain, but he was still amazing as the duke who destroyed Aurelius' slave trade and Macedon's rule over his home.

With 14 entries (not counting Fire Emblem BS for the Super Famicom), it's evident that this book is not meant for western Fire Emblem fans. With the first 6 entries and Heroes of Light and Darkness on the DS having to of never made it to the west, only the hardcore fans of the series would have any sort of interest in this book (like myself).

The World is Not Enough on the N64 and From Russia With Love are great games, though the Goldeneye reboot was also great. It's a pity the series ended with the horrendous failure of Goldeneye Legends, but Activision only made it a pitiful Call of Duty clone.

So for those not caught up, that would put Tri Force Heroes in the timeline where Link is defeated by Ganondorf in Ocarina of Time. So in this branch that would make the official timelike Ocarina of Time > The Sealing Wars where Ganon is imprisoned by the seven sages > A Link to the Past in which the seal is destroyed by Agahnim > A Link Between Worlds > Tri Force Heroes > Oracle of Ages and Seasons in which Ganon is revived again > Link's Awakening which takes place a few months after Oracles of Ages and Seasons > Hyrule enters a rapid decline due to a lack of a proper successor of the triforce, Zelda is sent into an eternal slumber by a wizard associated with her brother and ANOTHER Zelda is kidnapped by the revived Ganon > The Legend of Zelda (original) > Zelda II: The Adventure of Link (taking place only 4 years later)

I just hope I can transfer my data between both games, especially considering how many levels there are in Adventure Mode and how you have to replay them just to get every hidden item.

I can understand the inclusion of Xenoblade Chronicles characters since Namco Bandai owns them, but Fire Emblem feels a little out of place since they're full Nintendo characters (though compared to other characters in Project X Zone it's highly understandable). Here's hoping for a Link and Zelda (and Navi) duo and maybe Ike and Robin (even though they'll probably use the female version).

Shadow Dragon is a great remake of the original NES title, but compared to other Fire Emblem games it's one of the worst FE games of all time. Here's a run down of what's wrong with this game:

• No skills similar to the past 3 entries (for its time)
• Predictable story with the newly implemented scenarios adding nothing
• Almost seldom character development for more then half the characters
• A prologue that only teaches you the bare-basics
• A reclass system that makes the value of most units (save for thieves, manaketes and those amazing ballistians) worthless
• Almost every unit are either broken or completely useless (i.e. Tiki, Jake, Sedgar, Barst and Cadea in comparison to almost every pre-promoted unit)
• Gaiden chapters can only be accessed by killing your units, making it impossible to obtain every unit in a single playthrough

Other then that, I'd highly recommend this remake. Mystery of the Emblem's Book 1 segment also served as a remake, but a lot of the content was cut including 6 characters (Wyrs, Darros, Roger, Jake, Beck and Gatoh) who were later added to the DS remake. Plus the music and the deep dialogue makes Shadow Dragon a fulfilling experience. Just be prepared to sacrifice A LOT of units for those gaiden chapters.

So Michel Ancel pretty much made his own Mario and Pac-Man crossover, now all we need is a Rayman amiibo to complete Ancel's dream level.

@zool Then perhaps my opinion was far too generous.

I'm going to assume that this review will obtain a score of 5/10 based off the multitude of complaints.

Oh my, it would appear that I'll be downloading the newest instalment of the Ace Attorney series. It certainly has been ages since I completed the WiiWare trilogy and Professor Layton crossover.

Poor Falco, he was the second (after Ness) and first unlockable character in Smash Bros (if you unlock the characters by playing VS matches) for the 3DS and Wii U respectively, yet Wario and Lucina were released half a year earlier and Mewtwo comes out a week prior.

Does anyone know whether or not Pandora's Tower still retains that game-ending glitch?

And to think, Koppai Nintendo's long-term goals were to sell playing cards you couldn't gamble with in cigarette stores to make thousand dollars.

In my opinion, I've always felt that the 3DS iteration of Ocarina of Time is the definitive version of the game, regardless of the costs. Aside from the many enhancements made (on both a graphical and gameplay standpoint of view), it also comes packed with the Master Quest edition of the game. On a final note; it's also portable.

Looks like my Megaman amiibo is going to be seeing some more action soon.

But can the servers really handle that much? These hours will prove to be a testament as to whether the servers can handle this single hour, especially due to the lack of additional hours for those who would prefer another time.

Iwata: We would like to announce the next entry in the Star Fox series ... Star Fox U: Slow Moving Blue-Marine Edition, now with Slippy's chances of getting tailed by the enemy tripled. You'll hear memorable quotes such as "FFFFFOOOOXXXXX" or "Get this guy of my tail" and who can forget that minute long scream of Slippy.

Though reviews state it's an awful game, Sonic R on the Sega Saturn and Sonic Drift 2 on the Sega Game Gear are titles I'd recommend. They're considered to be a 6/10 title, though I had a lot of fun playing those two titles in the Sonic Gem Collection compilation.

Does anyone here know whether Smash-Fest is coming to Canada?

With the exception of the previous year, I've achieved the Platinum status year after year. A pity that I've resisted my urge to play Animal Crossing New Leaf due to stories of casual gamers spending over 100 hours playing this game.

Perhaps Nintendo and its distributors can be a little more fair with their consumers when it comes to releasing games. A console with Star Fox 64, Super Mario 64, Wave Race 64, and Ocarina of Time at launch (along with demos for each of these games and Dr. Mario 64 bundled up in the memory card) is nothing no launching matter for rival businesses, until you realize that only 14 titles are released in the console's entire history from a timespan of 2003-2006, when the initial console released its last game in 2002. On the brighter side of the spectrum, it did give China the Japan exclusives Custom Robo, Sin and Punishment and Animal Crossing on the NIntendo 64.

The day that Capcom develops Megaman 11 and Megaman X 9 is the day that EA develops their biggest game without DLC required to finish the game.

Mike Aruba is back!!!
