@BenAV Same here. This is better than what I expected. I'll probably get it, but not now.

@Eureka At least MH4's might be around 20%. Hopefully, but I'm sure Capcom will use their heads on this one. Release an amazing demo, and I'll be sold assuming it's awesome.

@coolvw Best soundtrack ever. Viva la Vida, Run This Town, & more? Sounds good to me. This sparked my interest in the game.

Cool, though the point of ruining most of the stuff (as at least 1/2 has to be functional, most broken ones would be in the trash), is kinda sad. I grew up on the PS1, but the N64 was a pretty good system, and I bet it would've been awesome to have played that during its time.

@crazyj2312 That trailer for it had a couple good songs, namely the one in the middle. I have high hopes when I get it on Monday.

@darkgamer001 Pachter should stop thinking this will be a bit of a failure. While he did note it will help the sales, it will be a larger step in reaching Nintendo's goal than he thinks. Minus the 2nd analog stick thing (and why that isn't a criticism of his is beyond me), the 3DS XL is awesome. I won't be buying one, but some people held off for a bigger screen. That will help sales, those who waited for a revision. The 3DS certainly needs some more games, as in more Resident Evil/Call of Duty/Zelda/other must-have games, and marketing to let people know about these games are as well. The Vita's doing this, and I'm sure it'll help its sales. Also, when you want the 3DS to sell, releasing Pokemon on the DSi doesn't help. And at this point, the DSi is so outdated that the game itself is a shadow of what it could've been on 3DS. At least Castlevania is coming, but there should be more than that. If Nintendo can persuade 3rd party devs to develop for the 3DS more, they'll reach their goal for sure.

Awesome. I'll check the eShop soon.

If my 3DS came w/ a bigger memory card, I'd look into the download cards @ retailers. But I'm not willing to upgrade my memory card just yet, so I'll stick w/ retail for now.

Too bad. Only 15; it sounded interesting, so you'd think at least 50 people would enter.

@NintendoLand The irony. I'm guessing that analyst was Pachter who isn't always the most accurate, especially when predicting the success of a Nintendo console. While Wii U probably won't see the success the Wii did, I doubt it'll be a failure.

@LordJumpMad Looks like Push Square was under the name Nintendo Life. It should be Nintendo Life/Push Square.

@kobe1724 I've got them all. Now it looks like I have something to use my play coin on too.

As long as rhythm games don't have overcharged plastic fake instruments, I could see myself getting one again. Band Hero was such a waste, my most regretted purchase (or more likely, present not exchanged).

@noxusprime06 I thought the makers of Rock Band had their IP (Guitar hero) taken by Activision, and made Rock Band to compete w/ their old series and improve it.

@Rococoman La Mulana was cancelled due to Nicalis cancelling it, not Nintendo, and Super Meat Boy didn't come due to file size limits. Anyways, the 3DS doesn't have size limits, thank goodness, and Wii U probably won't either. Looks like Nintendo learned their lesson. Also, while Nintendo curating the eShop does hurt chances of indie games getting in, it beats some things getting in (like that fake dysfunctional Pokemon game on the App Store). The Ouya can be rooted by its owners without voiding the warranty, which is good for those who like modding their games/systems as a hobby. There's no licensing fees for devs either. So yeah, that's one way to do game consoles, and it definitely has its benefits, but Nintendo does things the way they want to. What's sad is UFO Interactive gets to be lucky and make all these games, yet some devs encounter issues bringing their amazing games over. That sucks.

@Sony_70 Sound like i should've gotten a 360 & Mass Effect 2 sooner, instead of waiting until now to get a 360 & ME3. That sounds interesting, decisions from a game's predecessor affecting what happens in the sequel.

@mastersworddude I jumped in for the end, and I love it on my 360. I, anyways, think the gameplay's great. Perhaps you're one of those people that don't like the dumbed-down RPG elements, but I don't mind ME3.

@19Robb92 Yeah, it's impressive how big they screwed up. Funny, but sad.

@WaveBoy I like dual analog, but it's a bit sluggish. Wii remote can be good, but games can be excellent (like Metroid Prime: Corruption), fairly good (Resident Evil: The Darkside Chronicles), or bad. Keyboard and mouse is similar, but the keyboard sucks for moving (it's like a d-pad for moving in a 3D environment, but worse).

The 3DS has some okay media options, though if media's all you want it's not the device you should choose right now. 3DS Sound is better than the Photo Channel (Wii) & DSi Sound for listening to music, but the inability to change playlist settings, lack of playlist organizing, and still being unable to play copy-protected songs are 3 things that could use some work, w/ the middle option being most important. The camera quality on the XL should've been improved at least a little, but it wasn't, and chances are it's too late to back out and fix it now. 3D wasn't a selling point for me, & shouldn't be, but it's a welcome addition. Netflix hasn't gone 3D yet, which it should, along w/ Hulu Plus, which is long overdue. A YouTube app would also be nice, and same w/ a web chat app as well. Add that, and the 3DS should be fine. Oh, and a music video section on the eShop wouldn't be half bad as well.

Time to play my new copies of Resident Evil: The Darkside Chronicles & RE4. Then, like some of the staff, I'll do Xenoblade & (maybe) Metroid Prime Trilogy (all this so far on my Wii). Perhaps I'll stick some Minecraft and Mass Effect 3 on my 360 in as well. Lastly, on the go (3DS) I'll do some replaying of Resident Evil: Revelations & Starfox 64 3D* & trying to finish VVVVVV's player levels* (* = maybe). Perhaps if I have time, which I doubt, I'll finish the Fire Sanctuary on Zelda: Skyward Sword.

@Mk_II Yeah, they'd rather use it. I know that when someone else wants to, they can. Lazy Epic Games, won't they port their own engines to other systems?

@SilentHunter382 Not necessarily:
Back of the system:
L - Z_L - Game Card Slot, etc. - Z_R - R

Great job. Good luck at Nintendo!

So despite UE4 being able to run on Wii U, they'd rather use UE3? Hopefully someone gets up and starts porting UE4 to Wii U, because I've seen how much of an improvement it can be for some games (like Fortnite on PC).

@SaviorOfSociety Well, that killed the little interest I had in the game to begin w/.

I read all the old ones. Some were so funny, like the can you guys make Wii games more like Kinect games one. The title, irony, was a perfect fit, when so many Kinect games practically are Wii games, but w/ HD & voice commands, and a hint of originality. Why so many people mistake you guys for Nintendo is just sad too, because it says that on the site. Also, the links on volume 3 are wrong: It shows links for Volumes 1 & 2, not 2 & 4

@cnm_nintendo That was a good one. I had that happen one time...I fixed it in about 10 seconds. I wonder how long it took that idiot to figure it out.

I read volume 1, and another Halo fan has united to defend it. Man, how many stupid emails do you guys get? Anyways, Halo is awesome and how it sucks is beyond me. It plays well, looks good, etc.

@RevolverLink Where did you find that face? That looked like he must've seen the stupidest play ever by his coach/most ridiculous thing ever happen at the Super Bowl.

Never beat the 1st, because I got stuck and lost interest. Perhaps I'll go back and finish it.

@Janett That was hilarious.

Make it $20 & on the eShop as a retail download, and this could be very successful. Perhaps a bit too much, but it's 3 games after all. Or they could go even lower: $15.

Congratulations! Good luck @ Nintendo!

@dantevskratos The Wii D-Pad wasn't Nintendo's finest, and the Xbox 360 one was more like a 3rd analog stick, but I haven't been the biggest fan of the Playstation D-Pads. The Vita one was nice though. Currently, the 3DS one is my favorite, but now to get back on topic: Tekken may be doing it right. The 2nd screen may not be too beneficial to a fighting game.

@Cloud-San-VII Yeah, but the problem is, if you can mod it, you can hack & pirate it as well. So there cannot be a safe way to allow mods except for really fancy level editors, etc. that let you change just about anything w/ single-player. And no one makes that, and we all know some people will go I just want to make mods, and then we have piracy and cheaters all over again. If only there was a way to allow mods without cheating and pirating...

@GamerZack They weren't very bad w/ that comment. Yeah, it may have been a little biased, because Wii U did much more than catch up (it did that and then some, plus add in quite a few innovations). However, they did show very little Zelda, etc. besides Pikmin & a re-do of NSMB Wii. But Microsoft is okay, and while Vista did make me consider switching to Mac, Windows 7 was okay. If 8 can improve, since 7 felt like catching up, they'll be well-off.

@Lew3107 Now while graphics shouldn't decide a console, you may want to know that you may have been missing out on quite a few good 360 games. I've been using both, w/ a slight emphasis on my new 360. Both are great though, but some of the Wii games are inferior beyond graphics. Namely, the CPU can limit how much you can do w/ a game. I'm surprised Xenoblade works on my Wii, and shows it can do quite a bit, but I bet most games wouldn't function very good. MW3 had quite a few corners cut on Wii, beyond graphics.

@ouroborous Yeah, its lack of FPSs & RPGs is bad, but tons is about to come, and fighting games and Resident Evil are brimming on the 3DS (where have you been?). To miss those is a big mistake; those are some of my favorite games (RE: Revelations was awesome, and I enjoyed borrowing my bro's fighting games, I've been tempted to buy them myself). If you haven't looked into those, you're missing out on what helped keep me using my 3DS, though I'm starting to run low on games for it now. Until then, I have my Wii & 360.

Here's how the 3DS could become successful: make it known. It's known, and to quite an impressive degree, but believe me: if Resident Evil: Revelations, Dead or Alive: Dimensions, Mario Kart 7, Zelda: OoT 3D, and other distinct one-of-a-kind experiences were more prominent, people would want it more. And lack of a 3DS Call Of Duty isn't helping. Maybe a port of an Elder Scrolls game, like Morrowind could help. However, the Vita is even closer to those kind of experiences, so Nintendo had better make a game engine to give to 3rd party devs to get its games closer to it. That and leverage its own IPs like Pikmin, Metroid, Zelda, Mario, SSB, etc.

No mods? Hmm, I've seen some pretty interesting mods like R2D2 in GTA4 & an The Office-themed Counter Strike mod, but I'd rather have no piracy & no cheating over the lack of hilarious mods any day.

If that's the 3DS gameplay, it's awesome. If it's PS3, I'd like to see how the 3DS compares.

@Oddy I'm going to get it now because I've been on the fence for getting it, and ATV Wild Ride 3D is going to be around $10. To have that, I want to have $10 left. The sale price leaves me about $11, so if I get both, I don't need to buy another eShop card. If I had had enough to get both prior to the sale, I probably would've caved in and got it by now.

@Corbs Same here.

Hell yeah!!!!!!!!!!!!!! This is awesome! This should've been E3 2006 Nintendo. I've waited too long for a mind-blowing system like this.

Sony and Microsoft, now's the time - team up w/ Nintendo to use this awesome beyond words controller on the 720 & PS4. I mean, this thing owns the 360 controller. I need it...now!

Miiverse is...I don't know what. It could overwhelm some games. Perhaps Nintendo already knows about solutions to speech bubbles all over the screen. What could go wrong most is the possible lack of moderators. I mean, if a hater or spammer goes wild on Wii U...that could be a disaster. Anyways, I hope it turns out great. Plus it would be stupid to base the system on a crappy, unreliable foundation. So I think Iwata has it under control.

@kyuubikid213 Just like that.
@tealovertoma Your right. I've just got a lightning fast computer, though if the comments are completely flooded, it will get slow. Excellent point.

@sinalefa I don't have a Facebook Account either. But I do have a Google + Account.
Does anyone know when I can +1 the Wii U?

@tealovertoma Hey, for convenience, use (youtube:videoid) for videos (replace the parenthesis ( ) w/ brackets [ ] ). Also, the videoid is the part of the url after the v=. See?: [youtube:Fgh0D1Sfg3s] EDIT: Also, this is one of Nintendo's best ads in a while for the 3DS. And their E3 presentation this year had better be as good as this.
