Pretty confused by the focus on the 2009 season mode. Apart from a few highlights, 2009 was one of the duller MotoGP seasons on the whole. If the idea sticks around for future games, 2006 and 2015 would be wayyyyy more interesting.
Spider-Man 64 was the first game I ever played, so I'm super biased towards that. Could never really get into Spider-Man 2 tbh, always preferred Ultimate Spider-Man. Shattered Dimensions was great too, but I never played it on Wii.
I really, really hope at some point that another Picross 3D turns up on Switch. As much as I love the regular Picross games, 3D and 3D Round 2 are just another level entirely.
2012 was a bit pants. Kid Icarus Uprising and Xenoblade were the only real highlights, apart from them the Wii U launched with a bunch of PS3/360 ports
MotoGP 19 didn't get reviewed, though it feels a bit pointless to go back and review it by now. Just make sure you don't forget MotoGP 20 when it releases!
Anyone else remember how, at least in the UK, Zumba Fitness and it's sequel absolutely dominated the Wii sales charts for years? I swear Zumba or Zumba 2 was the top selling Wii game from from 2010 until they stopped releasing sales figures for Wii games.
Having a hard time deciding on whether to get it on Vita or 3DS. Vita version looks a lot nicer, obviously, but note taking is a lot easier with a second screen and a stylus. I guess it'll depend on if there's a price difference between PlayStation Store and eShop. Either way, apart from Zelda U, this is by far the game I'm most looking forward to this year.
I remember when this was first announced and (almost) everyone was hyped to hell and back. Now, the only times where I remember this thing still exists are when they release those cringy adverts or announce delays with their "sincerest apologies".
This has all gotten a bit silly, and frustrating for the backers, I imagine. I just hope to god that Yooka Laylee doesn't share the same fate...
I really, REALLY want this to be true. The series needs redeeming after the ball-ache that was Sticker Star (the game I bought my 3DS solely to play...hindsights always 20-20, I guess).
Fingers crossed for Twilight Princess HD. It's my favourite Zelda, but it's definitely starting to show its age, especially compared to Wind Waker HD. If the remake has the same graphical step up, adds a Hero Mode, fixes some of the more annoying parts (fishing and the tedious Vessel of Light segments come to mind...) and adds some more stuff to the overworld, this'll be a day one buy for me.
Definitely getting the Project Zero and Chibi Robo demos, because everyone loves free stuff. I also really want Octodad, but I'll wait for a review, just in case the port has been butchered somehow.
This won't end well, even my seven year old sister thinks the show is "SO STUPIDLY ANNOYINGLY DUMB". (Her words, not mine. Though she's not too far off...)
I thought the first Tappingo was a pretty neat time waster, but had lots of room for improvement. The zoom feature is a good start, but an "undo" button, more varied puzzles (rather than animal faces, food or the odd retro console which took up the majority of the original) and songs that don't make me look like a weirdo in public (circus music, as Gen0neD puts it) could make this something special.

Re: This Is What Sonic The Hedgehog Probably Looks Like In His Upcoming Movie
Looks pretty freaky, but I guess it's as good as we could realistically expect from a "live-action" Sonic.
Re: Nintendo Is Announcing "A New Way To Play" Later Today
"For kids"? "Interactive experience"?
Good god, we're getting a Switch port of Teddy Together, aren't we?
Re: Japanese Gamers Can Now Pick Their Favourite Joy-Con Colour Combo
I wish they'd hurry up and make a green right-sided JoyCon. I'd sell my kidney for a set with both green ones.

Re: 3DS System Update to Version 10.2.0-28 is Now Live
3DS is so stable, Nintendo should consider selling XL's to construction companies as shiny cinder blocks.
Re: Nintendo Download: 14th May (Europe)
Still holding out for Paper Mario, although discounted Ducktales & Guac' a Mole are VERY tempting...
Re: Nintendo Download: 30th April (Europe)
In the Smash bundle, I spy new trophies and a new icon? Do these already come with Mewtwo, or we gonna have to fork out a lot extra to get them?
Re: Nintendo Download: 12th March (Europe)
Wow, this is a hell of a week! Metroid, Mighty Switch Force 2 & Ace Attorney Trilogy are all verrry tempting...
