"Samus Aran — perhaps aside from her schoolboy-crush portrayal in Metroid: Other M — has also been portrayed as a strong female lead in various entries of that franchise."
So your idea of a strong female lead is a mostly silent protagonist with hardly any personality? Because aside from Fusion, the manga and a little of Super, that's what Samus was.
I see i'm with the majority. Seriously, they should spread their selected retailers out more, instead of bunching them together like they did here in Texas.
Wii U has plenty of 3rd party support from indie devs. And unlike those "big name" companies, they actually take the time to give us an experience worth the money we give them. So Pachter can take his opinions and shove 'em.
Also, if anything needs a price cut it's that awful abomination the XBox One.
Sorry, I just don't view the lack of cross-play as a disappointment. I'd rather have more than one version than just have the option to play the same game on my handheld.
That said, hoping at least for an Adventure Mode like Melee.
I agree with berzerker 99. Being able to play select VC games directly from the game would be fun. The best part of the original AC was collecting all those games.
"The game marks an evolution of the Sonic series and fans - both old and new - will be excited by a story which sees two of video games biggest adversaries, Sonic and Dr. Eggman, joining forces for the first time to help defeat a new deadly threat."
What about Sonic Adventure 2 and Sonic Chronicles: The Dark Brotherhood?

Re: Capcom Teases More Mega Virtual Console Releases
64 or no sale. I'm sticking to this.
Re: Nintendo Teases Majora's Mask Remake Again, Again
Meh. I'm still waiting for a continuation of this story.
Re: Not All Super Smash Bros. Characters Will Make The Leap To Wii U And 3DS
@Pixel-Perfect: No, this game pratically begs for it.
Re: Guide: How to Spot Fake Paintings and Statues in Animal Crossing: New Leaf
Yesterday (My first day!) his tent was around. I spotted two fake paintings and two others that didn't have fakes. I picked one of those two up.
Re: Impressions: The Best Buy "Nintendo Experience"
I see i'm with the majority. Seriously, they should spread their selected retailers out more, instead of bunching them together like they did here in Texas.
Re: Check Out How Mega Man Looks On The 3DS Version Of Super Smash Bros.
Really don't care. At this point he's the new Sandbag to me.
Re: Nintendo's Kensuke Tanabe Wants To Make Tingle Popular In The West
Pffft. If anyone's the Jar-Jar of Zelda, it's that guy stuck in the toilet in Majora's Mask and Oracle Of Ages. >:c
Re: New 3DS Firmware Update 6.0.0-11U Now Live
Bah. What good is backup data if I can't move it between SD Cards?
Re: New 3DS Firmware Update 6.0.0-11U Now Live
WHAAAA?! D8
Re: Nintendo - Inclusion of Peach in Super Mario 3D World to Encourage More Players
I'm still waiting on Super Princess Peach 2! I wanna see a happy ending for Perry!
Re: Pachter: Without Third Party Support Nintendo Fans May End Up Buying A Second Console

Re: Super Smash Bros. Will Have A Single Player Campaign
@Ernest_The_Crab: Well he also mentioned some kind of statistical character data that would be shareable between the two versions, didn't he?

Re: Wolfenstein: The New Order Looks Set To Skip Wii U
I'd rather focus on games we are getting than moan about not getting Generic Knockoff Of Legendary FPS Franchise #18567633.
Re: Mega Man's Dad Is "Ecstatic" That The Blue Bomber Is In Smash Bros.
Setting a goal for myself: kick Mega Man's butt with every character except him in multiplayer.
Re: Review: Mutant Mudds Deluxe (Wii U eShop)
I would score this higher just for the checkpoints! The later stages are EVIL on 3DS!
Re: Exclusive: Zelda's Aonuma: We're Looking Into Going "Beyond The Disc" With DLC
1. Nintendo is not Capcom. They've proven several times that their DLC Adds to the experience, and for a reasonable price too.
2. DLC IS OPTIONAL. Nobody's forcing you to buy it.
Re: Sakurai: New Super Smash Bros. To Strike A Balance Between Hardcore And Casual
Getting rid of tripping is fine, but I kinda hope the banana peel and icy environments return.
Re: Iwata: Japanese Third Parties Investing More In 3DS Software
For cripes sakes man ONE PIECE! D:<
Re: Nintendo Confirms That Yarn Yoshi Just Wasn't Ready to be Shown Off at E3
It's pretty difficult to obtain certain items in Epic Yarn. XP
Re: Poll: Which Wii U E3 Game Has Impressed You the Most?
I can't pick, too many good ones (except for third party, what a joke).
Edit: Minus Sega and Platinum of course.
Re: Nintendo Setting Up Thousands Of StreetPass Relay Stations Across US And Europe
Hope there's at least one in my immediate area!
Re: Kensuke Tanabe: Donkey Kong Country: Tropical Freeze is "Kind of a Road Movie"
Hoping for Funky, Candy or Chunky.
Re: Super Mario 3D World is "The Grand Culmination" of The Best Ideas From Past 3D Mario Titles
Competitive multiplayer? Do want.
Re: Mega Man 2, 3 And 4 Are Now Available On North American Wii U eShop
Nope. Still not interested.
Re: Iwata Issues Apology For Technical Difficulties With Nintendo Direct Live Stream
Nintendo Life went down for me for awhile. Went over to Nintendo Everything which was really laggy but let me see well enough.
Re: Donkey Kong Country: Tropical Freeze Hopping To Wii U This Year
Glad Dixie's back. Can we get other Kongs too?
Re: FIFA 14 Is Coming To Nintendo Consoles After All - Except The Wii U
WAT
Re: Don't Expect Retro Games to Play in New Animal Crossing Releases
I agree with berzerker 99. Being able to play select VC games directly from the game would be fun. The best part of the original AC was collecting all those games.
Re: Capcom Announces E3 Live-streaming Schedule
Weak.
Re: New GameCenter CX Title in Development for 3DS
All of my DO VERY MUCH WANT!

Re: Link's Awakening Turns 20 Years Old
Kinda stupid that you can only complete DX's photo album by becoming a THIEF.
Re: Nintendo Download: 6th June (North America)
Gonna update Spelunker and Yoshi.
Re: Masahiro Sakurai Confirms Smash Bros. Reveal For Next Week's Nintendo Direct
Hope there's things that can only be done by having both versions!
Re: Weirdness: Capcom Selling a Rush Tissue Pouch in Japan for Mega Man Anniversary
@Rect_Pola: No, it's far beyond that point. Now it's like burying a big cut in a mound of salt.
Re: All Three Of Nintendo's Exclusive Sonic Titles Will Be Out In 2013
I just hope they don't immediately go and announce something better exclusively for rival systems like they did last time. : /
Re: Nintendo Download: 30th May (North America)
@Wiidsguy: I don't see how that would be possible without multiple 3DS systems. Even with Download now, you can only select one game at a time.
Re: Kickstarter Campaign Opens For A Hat In Time
I like this. It's like a bizarre fusion of classic games.
Re: Nintendo Download: 30th May (North America)
Only downloading everything on 3DS, save Gummy Bears: Mini Golf. Wii U VC doesn't deserve my attention this week.
@Wiidsguy: The poll asks which one you're going to download first.
Edit: Oh, and I might pick up Toki Tori 2.
Re: Namco Bandai Is Bringing Barbie And Monster High To Wii U, Wii, 3DS And DS
...I ask again. Why no article for the two One Piece games recently announced? One of them is a PSP port and the other has a teaser trailer! >:c
Re: SEGA Dishes Out The First Details For Sonic Lost World
"The game marks an evolution of the Sonic series and fans - both old and new - will be excited by a story which sees two of video games biggest adversaries, Sonic and Dr. Eggman, joining forces for the first time to help defeat a new deadly threat."
What about Sonic Adventure 2 and Sonic Chronicles: The Dark Brotherhood?
Re: Ubisoft Reveals E3 Lineup
Huh. I thought Stick Of Truth was out already.
Re: Web-Based Miiverse Posting Now Live
Glad they shortened the wait a bit. Five minutes was WAY too long! XD
Re: Nintendo Confirms E3 Best Buy Demo Locations
@astros75: It still doesn't help me. I live in the West.
Re: Nintendo Confirms E3 Best Buy Demo Locations
Why are all of the Texas locations in the EAST?! >:c
Re: Namco Bandai Developing Devils and Realist Game For 3DS
So where's the articles for One Piece: Romance Dawn and One Piece: Unlimited World R? >:c
Re: Oh Snap, Now Rayman Legends Is Coming To PS Vita With Exclusive Content
LOL Vita.
Re: Video: Sonic Lost World Debut Trailer Blasts Across The Internet
I'm impressed, but i'm still hoping we get to play as more than Sonic.
