Cool! I'll be sure to jump in sometime tomorrow!

To folks that keep asking about the Elite rewards: According to a recent Google search, if Nintendo does the same as last year we'll hear about them on or around July 15th, and then we'll have at least a month from that time period to choose our rewards. Hopefully we get something good this year!

@Yamitora1 Last year we didn't find out anything until July 15th, so I imagine we'll hear about Platinum/Gold rewards by then at least.

Paper Mario, since I don't have it yet. Awesome!

@rjejr Yeah, every place I looked before only simply said "You can download from Nintendo Network." I was going nuts trying to figure it out--do I download from the eShop? Do I open GTS? Then a while later after seeing another screenshot somewhere I tried Mystery Gift and it worked.

I'm glad I can help!

This has been a great mini-series, and once again I'd like to thank you for my inclusion.

@kingston589 12.

I'd rather have a Wii U version. Then again from what I gather, PC Minecraft is just fine.

@sinalefa No problem!

For anyone that doesn't know how to obtain it (like silly me about a half-hour ago): Go to Mystery Gift, select 'via Internet' and then visit a Pokémon Center and talk to the girl there.

I know hackers don't necessarily equal cheaters, and I'm glad that this guy is learning a way to mess with font, text and music, but in a way it does concern me that this will eventually turn into a backdoor way to cheat and hack through a game like we saw in the Mario Kart Wii days. I flat-out quit playing that because of cheating hackers.

And the only reason it concerns me, despite their promises, is because if you look at this guy's other videos you can see examples of all the hacking and cheating he did in MKWii. He can make all the promsies he wants, but that isn't to say that one day if he finds a way to exploit MK8 any further like that he won't ever do so.

Me personally, I think MK8's fine the way it is. Custom tracks are one thing--if actual battle arenas were created that would rule--but I don't see a necessity in changing course names or the music. Developers spent a lot of time and money to make the game how it is today, why mess it up with terrible-sounding music and immature names?

Those are my two cents, anyway.

It's a shame that Boxing requires two Wii Remote Plus controllers in order to be fully realized. I still have yet to activate my 48-hour trial to activate both Baseball and Boxing, but I think I'll do so just to try Baseball out. Still considering getting the retail disc option since I never got around to buying any of the individual sports.

Here's to hoping Pokémon TCG makes it to North America this week...

I bought this on both PS3 and Wii. It's sad that the Wii iteration has basically flopped, wish more people would get it.

I just shared this article on Facebook with a plea for my Wii-owning friends to purchase it if they're looking for something new to play on there. Doubt it'll make an impact, but it's something, especially if even one person buys it.

I was just playing some Super Mario 3D World yesterday and played one of the Captain Toad levels. The entire time all I kept thinking about was how cool it is that an entire Captain Toad game is coming, and how much I can't wait to play it. So yeah, I'm stoked for it.

I sense another hilariously negative review coming for this Power Rangers title. Can't wait!

I'll probably download the last two ports in Wii Sports Club just because I'm broke. Kinda stinks that two Wii MotionPlus remotes are required for boxing though, I only have one remote.

I miss playing this game. I think I'll have to get a used copy. An old friend and I actually went through the entire game and cleared it out, 100%. Sometime after that I decided to trade it in because I'm an idiot. >_<

I decided to download Gunman Clive a few weeks ago. At first, the look of the game made me second-guess my decision, then I began really getting into it and now I think it's one of the best 3DS eShop games I've played so far! Can't wait for this sequel.

HAHA, love the subtitle for this article!

With that said, I wish I could 'like' some of the comments I read on here like on Facebook and Miiverse. Everyone on NL has a great sense of humor from what I gather, which is just one of the reasons I love coming back to this site!

Ending it with a classy twist on "Please understand." Nice.

Recover soon, Mr. Iwata.

I agree with what @rjejr said--Yes to Wii U MInecraft, no to 3DS Minecraft. Wii U would be perfect for it, and I would definitely throw some good money down on a Wii U version of it. I played the PS3 version and thought it was awesome, but I can't help feeling like having a touch-screen for controls would make it even better. Throw in some Nintendo-exclusive skin and texture packs and it'll be even better than better!

As for 3DS Minecraft... yes, it has the touch-screen, but I can't see having marathon building and exploring sessions on a handheld. That's just me though.

I'm fine with it as long as the games keep coming!

I like this, but I'll like it even better if it's free. And I'll take any MK8 DLC as long as it adds more to Battle mode, maybe finally give us arenas...

@Sampras Downloaded it to my Wii U yesterday, and aside from a GamePad-only control scheme and insane difficulty, it's really good and I'm glad to have it.

I'll most likely download Another World!

I recently played the SNES version at a friends house, and even though I got so ticked off at it and found the controls a bit stiff, I still enjoyed what I played. The graphics would look primitive by today's standards for sure, but like the original Star Fox I appreciate the visual style because for its time it looked amazing. With all of that said, I'm seriously considering this. Great review!

I've only used TVii extensively twice, and that was during both of the Super Bowls that have passed since Wii U's launch. Other than those two times I don't watch TV enough to justify its use. Nice feature to have though, I guess. Maybe once I get a cable box one of these days I'll use it more often.

There's only one big reason why I hope N64 games arrive on Wii U Virtual Console: The controller options. Now that I have all my previous Virtual Console games on Wii U, I can't stand playing some of my 64 games using just the Classic Controller Pro. Star Fox 64's controls are a pain, and to an extent the same applies for the original Super Smash Bros. I simply can't stand using the Classic Controller for N64 games, I miss having a GameCube control option.

To be honest, if GameCube controllers were currently usable on Wii U I wouldn't have a need for N64 games on Wii U's VC.

Anyone who has doubts about getting this on the 3DS... I had my doubts before buying it for $5 when it was on sale during the holidays on the Wii U eShop, and it's awesome. I'm glad for 3DS owners that will be getting the Deluxe update soon, it just adds to the fun that the game already offers. It's got some difficulty to it, but it's far from impossible. Definitely worth a try if you have yet to play it, whether it's on 3DS or Wii U.

Unified account, cross-buy, and folders would all be great additions. Some kind of achievement system would be nice but I'm not counting on it.

And suddenly, a wild TreesenHauser appeared.
Haha, awesome episode.

Oh please let this happen! Darksiders is amazing.

This was a good laugh first thing in the morning.

I like it! I'm glad Nintendo's exploring new territory with this, instead of remaking another Zelda game.

My only regret with yesterday's E3 proceedings? No Star Fox Wii U demonstration.

YES! YES! YES! YES! YES! YES! YES! YEEEEEEEES!

I'd love some DLC, especially if it means getting more than just Balloons for Battle mode!

My top 5:

1. NES Remix 2
2. DuckTales Remastered
3. Wii Sports Club (Bowling)
4. Mutant Mudds Deluxe
5. Runner 2

Scanning through the comments, I think I'm the only Nintendo Life reader that would be interested in something like this. However, considering the newly-announced GameCube controller adapter I guess there wouldn't be a point to getting one.

Looks like my Tuesday will be booked solid beginning at Noon.

At this point, for me anyways it's hard to pick any game over Mario Kart 8.

1. Mario Kart 8
2. Super Mario 3D World
3. Donkey Kong Country: Tropical Freeze
4. Wind Waker HD
5. The Wonderful 101

Runner-ups: ZombiU, Pikmin 3 and New Super Mario Bros. U/New Super Luigi U

That's hilarious

I plan to buy this as soon as I have some money! I've wanted it since that surprise Direct.

I'll stop in at some point!

This is why I'm glad I never bought any of the sports! I'll definitely get the retail version.

Please understand, I do seriously hope Mr. Iwata feels better soon!

Can't really afford anything this week, but eventually I'd like to get 1001 Spikes, Minish Cap and Tomodachi Life.

@Player1 "It's ridiculous, there is the Wii U Pro Controller and then you can't use it for all games. Why try to shove it down people's throat? Super Mario Bros U cannot be played as First Player (Single Player) with a Pro Controller."

Just curious, how long has it been since you played New Super Mario Bros. U? Because Nintendo updated the game for Pro Controller compatibility a year ago and when I play it it's my go-to option, especially as a solo gamer.

@Shiryu Exactly this.
