Honestly, I always expected the other two consoles to experience growing pains upon release. It's just how things are in the world today. That's also why I'm not too worried about Wii U right now. Sure, it's not a perfect console, but I believe some of its selling issues stem from the market as a whole. I'm sure all the consoles this gen will experience some difficulties in the beginning, but given time, will all rise to varying levels of success.

WOOT! These look awesome. I want me a Yayakoma.

@Midnight3DS - I heartily agree.

I hated the movie when I first saw it, but my perspective on crummy movies has changed, so I might actually enjoy it for the laughs and my own snarky commentary.

I'll be trying to finish up Xenoblade Chronicles and Fire Emblem: Awakening. Other items on my menu will be Portal, Portal 2, and perhaps getting some of the bonus medals/trophies in Rayman Origins.

Hey, this mystery Mew has toes like the Imprisoned from Skyward Sword! Funky.

Anyways, as I mentioned in my earlier post, I think it's exciting that Mewtwo's story will be further expanded. I found it really interesting how Mewtwo was foreshadowed at the Pokemon Mansion in the first game through the Apocalyptic Log. There were also subtle hints tying the likes of Dr. (we know him as Mr.) Fuji and Blaine into Mewtwo's creation. The whole concept behind Mewtwo is very cool. So instead of bitterly complaining how Game Freak ruined it all, I'm excited to take another look at Mewtwo's story and see how it progresses.

@Ideal_Hero - You do know that the Beserk Gene was only available in Crystal right?

Anyways, this looks pretty cool. I'm excited to hear another chapter in the story of Mewtwo.

I just got Trine 2, so I doubt I'll get this immediately. However, I'd to get it sometime.

Very nice! I will definitely pick Meleotta up.

This sounds pretty cool. I'll be interested to learn more.
PS - Nice picture.

Europe: Why are you bringing the Wii Mini here, Nintendo?
Nintendo:

I know the NSMB series isn't all that innovative, but I've enjoyed every one of the games so far. Innovative: not really. Fun: darn tootin'.

Also, the Mario series as a whole is quite innovative. It branches out into nearly every genre and adds a new Mario twist to it. To say the Mario series is not innovative seems absurd.

One more thing. Let's not forget Super Mario 3D Land. It was very innovative in my eyes, as it blended 2D and 3D Mario gameplay into a beautiful and unique new game.

@Tsukun - Well, that round did have several dropouts...
Either way, great races.

@Tsukun - Did you ever race as Wiggler 1-on-1 with Bowser? If so, then I got your name wrong in my previous post. You are an excellent racer and I tip my shell to you.

@Conzo - No problem buddy. I'm glad I could help.

@Conzo - Hey, I remember racing you. You were pretty great. I had some good matches with you.

@Emmy - I have the right to talk, too. It's pretty great. When you can get back online, I have a request of you. Please race @Cosmic and beat him?
I would be very interested.

K thx by.

I think Bowser has caused enough harm today. Great races everyone.
Also, whoever @Tsukan is, I tip my shell to you. You may just be the best racer out there.

I go by Matt... so get ready to be schooled!

It'll be fine. You just keep making games, Ubi, and Nintendo will work its magic.

I haven't played this in a while... but why not?

I'm sure that there will be some method to link the two games with. Just look at the Four Swords: Anniversary Edition.

Excellent! These are two of the few Zelda games I have not played. I'm glad I saved my $10 on the eShop.

Very nice article, @Thomas. I think you hit the nail right on the head. We shouldn't let the companies walk all over us consumers, but we should also be fair in return.

Now look what you've done Gearbox.

You've gone and made Sonic mad.

Hopefully this will help boost Wii U awareness in Europe.

Wow, nice sales. Nothing really here for me, but it's nice to see the eShop getting sales.

I'm very pleased with this. I now know that those extra months will be used to make the game even better, not to mention that we'll be getting the online challenge mode FREE! I don't know why some people are still so bent out of shape about this, but whatever. Thank you, Mr. Ancel.

@Five-seveN - Uh, you do realize that @Burning_Spear was being sarcastic, right?

I do notice some punctuation errors in the sentence. An extra comma, an unnecessary space, and no exclamation point.

@Darth_Pascal - Same here. My Internet connection as a whole has been a bit spotty lately. I should probably do something about that.

From what I've been able to play of this, it's pretty fun. This is just the kind of thing I would have loved as a kid (and today still, really). I did notice that my neighborhood hadn't been updated since 08, though.

You don't think that I can fit that in my pocket?

@Ideal_Hero - Mine too!

I'd buy it if it's been improved over its previous counterparts. I'd love to play a good game starring my friendly neighborhood Spider-Man.

So this is what happened to Mighty the Armadillo...

@3Dash and @Jumpy
I imagine the issue can be best explained with a metaphor. An English phrase (representing video games), can be translated into Japanese (representing a movie) and come out quite well (it's not 100%, mind you). Try to convert it back to English, and it just becomes a garbled mess.

Yeah! The Doctor made it in!
Well done, Mr. Chicken.

Wii Street U FTW!

Are these only available in Europe as well?

@3Dash - I have a feeling that you'll come down with a bad cold a few days before camp...

I suspect that we'll see some Dry Bowser action in this. He seems to have taken a role as Luigi's nemesis.

This shall be most awesome. Likely the most exciting thing for me from the Nintendo Direct.

Will the XL be sold on its own? I already have FE:A but I would like that XL.

EDIT: Oh, it's Europe exclusive. I am sad.

Sounds like it has potential.

Wow. This is an interesting development. I wonder what sort of fruit it will produce...

Ahhh, it's so cute! I can't wait to find out more about it.

Interesting. I played the demo for the Wii Ware version (I found a Shiny Charmander... right before the demo ended), but I haven't invested in either full versions. If this one turns out to be good, then maybe I'll give it a try.

I'm sure each of these titles listed have their own merits, but I can think of several Nintendo games that would fit much better.

This is one of the reasons why the Colors!3D community is annoying. It's still a pretty handy app though.

I got Paper Mario. I was already thinking about getting it, so it being a CN reward was perfect.

Fire Emblem: Awakening will be the center of my attention, but I may give the Etrian Odyssey demo a try.
And yes, Sticker Star is awesome.

I just downloaded the demo and will try it out later today. I may also try to hunt down some of the QR codes.
