Whereas I'm not overly excited about Nintendo mobile games, it's stupid to say mobile games are bad per se. There are games that work on these mobile platforms. Those games are rare, yes, but they do exist. Good to see N making profit but to a gamer (customer) that doesn't really mean anything.
People see something in this series that I just can't seem to get. Played both of them on the Wii but pretty much hated 'em. But if the demand is there then sure, keep on making them.
I don't know whether people are in denial or sincerely excited. I think the game looked horrible before and looks like garbage now. Many sites share the opinion of NintendoLife and I seriously believe them. Maybe that one article was unnecessary but still. Metacritic 40 incoming.
My all-time favorite series but I seriously don't care about the timeline at all. Correct me if I'm wrong but I suppose they never cared either, they just came up with it because of popular demand. That alone makes it totally irrelevant.
I accept the pioneer status of this game but when I first played it just 4 years ago I was a bit disappointed and it was the 3DS version. I rate it 8 while WW is 9 and TP and SS full 10's. The series has gone uphill like there's no tomorrow
At one point I didn't like his videos. That was until I realized that "The nerd" is a totally over-the-top, over-acted, CHARACTER. Just see some of his videos where he is himself. Seems like a nice guy.
I might want to check this game out eventually but not right now. Btw, there are plenty of different AVGN games on different platforms. Fan-made, that is.
I don't mind. It's rewarding to learn complex controls. It's a risk though for the developers. Sometimes controls that are too easy make me feel like I'm just running through the game and not achieving anything. I guess this is one of those swords with a double edge.
Awww, happy to hear this. I haven't played a Chibi-robo game before but I thought the main character is great. So maybe I'll check this out once it's out.
Metroid Prime is my all-time favorite game but I'm cool with this. Don't know whether I'm gonna buy this or not since multiplayer is not exactly my thing but it does look kinda fun. Bland but fun. Now with the current generation being fully on the 3DS starts to look kinda weak no matter how much I love the lil guy :/
Nintendo's losing it big time. I'll support them till the end of times but I'll also be doing most of my gaming on other platforms in the future. One or two decent games a year is just nowhere near enough especially when they struggle with their biggest IPs. Delays and lack-lustre efforts... sigh
Link is definitely not the most elaborate character anyways so I wouldn't mind mixing things a bit. I usually play with female characters when possible so I would actually like it a lot in a canon Zelda.
Truly a great game, one of my favorites from recent years. But without the gamepad... I'm not so sure about that. Seems more a remake than a simple port. Not going to be jealous over pointless stuff like this.
Not interested in Splatoon at all. I've tried to get excited about online gaming but it seems that I'm just too old-school for that. I played MK8 for a couple of weeks online and then couldn't bother with it anymore. To me it's sad to see gaming slowly sliding more and more into that.
@andrea987 That was the first thing that came to my mind. Played it a lot back then. I recently got it for free from EA's Origin. Yeah, I know... Origin...
I'd like to hear these complaints from god himself instead of his angry mob. I tried this game once and didn't see the charm but it's a "maybe" from me. Good to see the game on Ninty platforms though.
I beat this game twice which almost never happens. In the future I'll get to it once more. There is something about this game that just fascinates me so much. The setting, the atmosphere... The London suburb in gloomy daylight... Actually, I want to play this right now
Kind of obvious choices. I don't mind the absence of Kid Icarus here. To me it was decent but nothing special. To be honest, I haven't enjoyed 3DS nearly as much as I did the original DS. Great piece of hardware but not too many memorable games really.
I haven't finished Knytt. I've pretty much forgotten about that game. Which reminds me I haven't finished Master Reboot either. This is what happens nowadays.
Yes, I will pre-order it like I did with Project Zero 2 on Wii. You can always count on me when it comes to horror on Nintendo platforms. Then again, they don't seem to care and I'm forced to buy other consoles for horror purposes. Sorry.
I've really enjoyed some of their games. Shadow wars was one of the biggest surprises. It's really good for a turn-based strategy. Child of light, really beatiful with awesome soundtrack and great combat system. AC4, framerate issues but otherwise pretty freaking awesome. 100%'d it in about 65 hours. Zombi U is already a cult classic at this point. Finished it twice which almost never happens. Blacklist is also great if you want some hardcore stealth. Endless possibilities when it comes to gameplay. So many gadgets. I don't hate them.
The original was a nice budget title and I didn't find the controls too awkward. I like when people try new things, even if they don't always turn out that great. I'm gonna check this out if it arrives to Europe.
The handpainted parts on my Ganondorf (The WW HD one) could be better but for the price it's quite ok. I kinda like my blue shell better though in all its simplicity ^__^ I hope Zelda U gets some cool limited edition. I need Link.
This is cool and all, I just hate the fact that I need to buy nunchuk again and also batteries for my remote. It's like 2007 again. I will re-buy Metroid Prime Trilogy but I'd really like Xenoblade Chronicles as well. I don't think the remake would necessarily prevent that from happening but it just doesn't seem like a game that would appear on VC. There were Ocarina of time and Majora's mask on VC and they still got remade and with a high price tag.

Re: Nintendo of America Confirms Plans to Bring Devil's Third to Region
All this rumour stuff is interesting but I'd be surprised if the game itself is even half decent. I hope I'm wrong though.

Re: Review: Rival Turf! (Wii U eShop / Super Nintendo)
90's, the time of cheesy clothing and street fighting. (Un?)fortunately I witnessed only the former.
Re: Xeodrifter Targeting 18th June Release in PAL Regions, Pricing Confirmed
It looks so great but isn't it quite short... So the price is slightly more than I'd like to pay but we'll see.

Oh wow, it looks way better than before. Some nice ideas as well. Good job. I just hope the controls are comfortable.

Completely useless. Completely awesome.
Re: Xenoblade Chronicles X Paid-DLC Details Emerge With Characters, Quests and Skell Unlocks
To me it seems that the game doesn't need DLC but the development was so huge that they would like to turn that into some extra cash flow.
Indifference is the word that comes to mind when I'm asked about DLC. Fine by me. If I really really like the game I might look into that later.

Re: Video: See the Virtual Boy's Star Fox Wannabe, Red Alarm, In 3D Via Your New Nintendo 3DS
The game looks relatively interesting. Must've been cool back then. The wireframe graphics are slightly confusing though.
Re: Intriguing Indie Developer Simogo Teases Wii U Projects
Their audio & visual department is top-notch. Flawless work. I tried Year Walk briefly and would gladly buy some of their stuff on Wii U.

I don't have any of those so I'll probably pick up two or sumthing.. Damrey and Friday Monsters maybe. Good discounts!
