@k8sMum I'm going to miss NP just as much as anybody, but overreacting and berating Reggie for making a good business call? My comment was directed at that group of people who feel like they're entitled to Nintendo Power and start petitions and online hatefests. I tagged @Gamer83 because its post was the first negative one I saw, even if it isn't as radical as the groups' I am addressing. There are plenty of Nintendo news outlets and Reggie all but confirmed that the doors are open for future sources of "official" news.
My comment has basically degraded into a rant itself. The takeaway message is to simply be grateful for what you got. Be rational.
@Gamer83 Obviously they were losing money on the deal, or something comparably catastrophic to their business model. This isn't a personal assault on the fans; stop acting so offended.
American localization made the Koopa Kids Bowser's "children," just like the American localization also changed the A Link to the Past booklet's information. Doesn't make it cannon. All that aside, anyone who still insists Mario's surname is "Mario" is just kidding themselves. The man who created them never gave them that name. It's ridiculous to hold on to something as the truth even when it's been proven otherwise.

@Vriess The button and control stick placement mirror the GamePad's.
