@grimbldoo Yeah, that wasn't a great comparison. But something like a itouch or a kindle fire has better resolution and they're both less than the Wii was at launch.
I know it's stupid to complain about the Wii now, but I feel like if it had graphics at least 70% of the 360 and the features of MotionPlus at launch, it could have had much better games from third party developers and an even better system overall. I mean, when your 100 dollar camera has better resolution than your dedicated gaming console... 480p for the launch price of 250 dollars is ridiculous. I'm by no means complaining, just contemplating on lost potential.
As someone who was born and is still growing up in the time of digital media, I can say that I love physical merchandise and if I ever find myself having to download the newest Zelda game on my console, I will stop buying games. The reason physical media is appealing to me is because I can trade with friends, display it, and resell it. If I buy a physical game, it still has value after I beat it and no longer want it. But you can't resell a PC download or Pushmo.
@BalrogtheMaster I doubt it because everyone thought Black and White would have 3DS features but it didn't.
To everyone who thinks that this is a quick rehash, read the full article. Those are new Pokemon altogether called Black and White Kyurem respectively. They can't be traded onto Pokemon Black/White1 and the fact that these are new Pokemon means that they have the capability to make even more new Pokemon in Black/White2 in addition to the 649 we already have. It isn't a rehash, it's more like a Gen 5.2.
@moomoo The problem is Gen 5 really shouldn't have been on the DS in the first place. GameFreak could have helped by supporting a new system, but they got greedy and couldn't wait six more months in devolopment when they already had a 3DS dev kit. Now be queen of compatability issues, they're trapped on the DS and we won't be getting a 3DS main series game for a whiles. And the fact that they're making two versions for the DS just adds salt to the wound.
I gave it a B- on my video review. I pretty much had the same opinions as you guys at NintendoLife. Check out my review if you'd like. www.youtube.com/JuLeDoS
I bought this game and am stuck on Remix 10. I hate Tap Troupe, that Shrimp one, and Donk Donk! Overall, I think the DS game is better because it has more charming music, characters, controls, and design overall. But Fever is still a great game worthy of picking up. But if you're new to Rhythm Heaven, pick up the DS one first. It's more challenging and more fun as well. It takes a lot for me to 100% complete a game, and I did for Rhythm Heaven!
I think Nintendo will release it anyway. When Swapnote didn't appear on the Nintendo Download for North America everyone got pissed on this website, but they released it still.
...How do you f@*k that up? I mean, come on, who designed this? I'm by no means trying to offend Capcom or its employees, but I can't imagine how such a mistake was overlooked.
What if they called it the Ultra Nintendo Entertainment System and made it have lots of entertainment apps, dvd's and other entertainment besides gaming? I know that systems are for gaming but I really want the NES game to come back. And they could put Ultra in front of all their game titles!
also, I don't like the name Wii U because casuals won't know the difference between the Wii and Wii U, like with the 3DS. They'd just figure that its a Wii, but with a U! the 'Edit' link is there anytime you need to edit something you've said — it's handy when you've been autocorrected — TBD
Sorry to hear this game sucks, it was my most anticipated 3DS game. Not like people on a Nintendo devoted website like to play games like Resident Evil or Kid Icarus.
@BalrogTheMaster Thanks, that's pretty impressive. Hopefully the eshop won't become cluttered with (expensive) lackluster shovelware like what happened with DSi and Wiiware.
@BalrogTheMaster Just watched your review for Samurai sword Destiny and was glad to see your next review will be Zen Pinball. Would you mind doing a review on Mutant Mudds when it comes out?
@BalrogTheMaster Thanks for the early opinion, I guess. I was going to wait for the review before deciding to get it. Now I know not to! Great reviews for a Youtuber without any special equipment or anything! I think that if you focused on reviews of more obscure 3DS games and eshop games with footage, you could really find an audience on youtube along with your reviews of big games. I usually go to other Youtubers who can capture footage or for reviews of big games, but for games like Nano Assault and Pacman Galaga Dimensions, your reviews were the best found. After all, the reason I subscribed to your channel were reviews like those. If anyone's reading this comment, please check out balrogthemaster's channel on youtube. I look forward to more reviews.
I got- -Sonic Generations 3DS -Professor Layton and the Last Specter -Punchout Wii -Super Paper Mario -Kirby's Return to Dreamland And my sister got- -Mario Kart 7 -Tetris Axis -Pokemon Rumble Blast

Re: Pokémon Black & White Version 2 Announced
@Hejiru I made a full Youtube video about it, then changed it saying they were new Pokemon, and now I find out they really are just new formes. EFF!

Re: Pokémon Black & White Version 2 Announced
New Pokemon only available in the rehash version? That's a first.

Re: Mario Party 2 Joins the Club Nintendo Rewards Gang
I ordered four of the game cases! I plan on using both of the Zelda designs, the Mario and Luigi design, and the Nintendo 3DS design.
Re: Review: 3DS Circle Pad Pro
I'll probably get this and the 3DS revision when it comes out. What can I say, Nintendo's all but stolen my wallet.
