All they will do is instead of give the for free is offer them for 1 penny (or a 99% discount) to get round it.

I'm still praying for a Corrin, Cloud and Bayonetta restock to occur one day

looking like a good start
Hope we start to get some Saturn or Dreamcast stuff eventually.

Game Dev Story is one of my favourite Mobile Phone Games,, never expected it to come to any console, but I'm glad its coming to switch! Hope its priced sensibly and gets some updates (like a few new consoles to develop for based on the ones that have come out since the game was originally made) like the Nintendo Switch could be the Intendo Change.

While I like the look of these and enjoyed building the the first Labo set, my main issue is storing all the cardboard peripherals (Paticularly the bigger ones like the bike and the new ones look all on the bigger side) when they are not in use.

Good list, some I'd really like such as Waluigi, K Rool and a ARMS representative but here are 4 Characters I'd like to see that were not on the list:

1)Chibi Robo: Give the little guy a chance, make him Olimar Sized could have a fun moveset hitting people with a toothbrush and using the power cord as a whip.

2)Crash Bandicoot: Crash Trilogy is on its way to Switch and remember that old sony commercial where crash was calling out Mario outside Nintendo HQ... we have sonic lets get the other big 90s platform mascot in on the action!

3)Issac (Golden Sun): His Magical abilities could make for a fun moveset plus it gives representation to another older franchise, sometimes a being a fighter in smash can be what a series need to boost its popularity like what happened for Fire emblem

4)Takamaru: He was considered for the last game but apparently due to lack of popularity in the west was left out , that didn't stop Marth back in the SSBM days so why should it stop Takamaru?

Honorable mention: Bring back the Ice climbers since they were only left out as the 3ds couldn't handle them, but I'm sure the switch can!

Despite Nintendo previous miss with the Original Super Mario Bros movie that was a long time ago so figers crossed they will make it good this time. I'm kind of hoping we get a Nintendo Cinematic Universe kind of like the Marvel one with Multiple Movies (e:g Mario, Zelda, Metroid, etc) that come together in a Super Smash Bros Movie.

Next issues exclusive Sun and Moon news will be that exclusive Sun and Moon news will be in the following issue, which when that comes out will just tell us exclusive Sun and Moon news will come in the issue after that.... I swear CoroCoro are doing this on purpose now... I'd be more annoyed if Pokemon hadn't dropped all that ACTUAL awesome Sun and Moon News recently.

My only concern if this is true is making more games and making them faster does not matter if those games don't maintain the high quality I expect from Nintendo and sometimes if a game is rushed it can drastically affect its quality .
As Miyamoto himself once said: "A delayed game is eventually good, but a rushed game is forever bad,"

Getting the SNES PilotWings on New3DS myself, i'm loving having some SNES games on the go.

Didn't know about the "gold coins expire in only 6 months" issue... add that that to the list of things that need to be changed.....

As I posted before My Nintendo is a good starting place really needs 4 changes for it to be perfect
Gold Points for games under £4.50 (5 points)
Point Codes in physical games
Physical rewards
Missions in Wii U & 3DS games

Miitomo seems a bit basic to have long term potential the fact you can only add friends and not anyone like other "social" apps is a big thing that's gonna cause it to fade fast

Liking My Nintendo so far, its a good base to start off from however there are a few things I feel they need to add ASAP
Gold Points for games under £4.50 (say 5 gold points)
Point Codes in physical games
Physical rewards
Missions to earn coins in Wii U & 3DS games

@hYdeks There is also a Skyward Sword picture at Lon Lon Ranch in the farmhouse bedroom behind to pots, propped to the side against a chest of drawers if you go there as Adult Link.

If these come to the west it will leave me in a dilemma... on the one side I want to get Castlevania 4 and Contra 3 on my new3ds... on the other hand I don't want to give Konami any money due to their recent behavior.... so I don't know whether I'll buy them or not.

I'd love to see A Nintendo Cinematic Universe, They could Do a Mario Movie, Zelda Movie Metroid Movie, Starfox Movie etc and eventually bring them all together Avengers Style into a Smash Bros Movie

Spent my first money on this for the theme, I see it as buying the theme and getting the grabber plays free rather than buying the grabber plays and getting the theme free. So I got the theme plus I got ten Mario Kart Badges with my plays I got with the theme!

Nintendo's lack of marketing makes it look like Chibi Robo was practically set up to fail. Shame as I like the character, just hope Nintendo do give him another shot in future and give him the marketing push he deserves!

i respect Miyamoto but he can make some bad decisions sometimes and his status at Nintendo can mean they are not always challenged, like turning Rare's Dinosaur planet into a Starfox game, meaning it was judged by fans as a Starfox game when it was not made to be one, or making Wii Music!

Strange I ordered mine from Nintendo store UK and got both my Game and the 2 packs I ordered on time... the only thing I didn't get sent yet is the free accessory kit.

Step 1: Port Pokken Tournament on Wii U and/or Nintendo NX
Step 2: Release Worldwide
Step 3: Profit!
Extra Bonus Step: Add Amiibo Support

The Mario Kart Arcade machine is my favorite game to play when I go on my holiday to Clacton/Walton (both Clacton and Walton piers have the game). I normally play as Pacman or Doku-chan as they are not in other Mario Kart games, but I'll try some of the newly added characters next time.

So out of the characters that are currently in Smash Bros, we only need to see Lucas, Roy and Ryu in Amiibo form (assuming "Costume Characters" like The Koopa Kids and Alph won't get Amiibo as they are more costumes than full characters)! Wonder if Mewtwo will be coming before the year is over or if we will get him early next year.

Disappointed at some of the Choices, ones Like Isabelle, KK and Nook were all good picks, but not so keen on ones like both of the Alpaca duo and Lottie, I would of prefered Resetti, Capt'n and Dr Shrunk (maybe if they do a wave 2?)

@RainbowGazelle I had already heard about that, but they were gone by the time I was able to check, thanks for the tip off anyway!

Glad they are restocking, but the crypticness of this one annoys me, they could at least tell us WHICH characters will be restocked, even if they can't say exactly when they will go up. I only need one character, Shulk, but since they didn't specify which characters are available I have to keep checking the website on the off chance Shulk MIGHT be one of the characters they are restocking, potentially wasting my time if he is not one of the planned restocks.

This seems to be suffering from the same issue Starfox Adventures did on the gamecube, where the game is not being judged on the quality of the game itself but the expectations of the title attached to it, Starfox adventures got slated as it was not the epic space flying everyone expected from starfox but a action.adventure on foot. Metroid Prime:FF is not the isolated journey as Samus people expect from Metroid but a multiplayer Co-op. The game is being unfairly judged as a result of its title and not on its own merits (though maybe the reaction was inevitable due to how long since a new Metroid Prime had been released and Nintendo should of made it a new franchise). I actually was not expecting the game to get this degree of backlash, I'm not really a FPS fan and prefer 2D metroid so MP:FF felt like it wasn't for me but it looked fine enough and I certainly didn't start demanding them to cancel it!

Ok heres a rundown of my reaction
Starfox: Looks cool, probably the biggest gun in Nintendo's arsenal this year, unfortunate that they announced it last year, great start.
Skylanders: great from a business point but not news for a hardcore E3 crowd.
Zelda Triforce Heroes: Looks good, a 3 player, 4 swords type game, but not a killer ap.
Hyrule Warriors 3DS: Fantastic, I think people would of been more hyped if it were not for the leak.
Metroid Prime Federation Force: Would of been better received if they made it a new IP instead of making is a Metroid game without Samus.
Fire Emblem Fates: This one looks to be really good, but it was no surprise.
XenoBlade Chronicles: Same As FE Fates.
AC home designer: fun enough distraction
AC Mario Party Ripoff I MEAN AC Amiibo Festival: AC characters should of just been Mario Party DLC like in Mario Kart
Yokai Watch: Looks quirky, not sure if it'll take of here like in japan.
Yoshi's Wooly World: Long overdrawn section for a game we knew plenty about.
Mario and Luigi Paper Jam: The game I was most looking forward to after the direct, a nice surprise, can't wait to play this!
Mario Tennis: Ok, but again not the killer App Nintendo needed
Mario Maker: Way to drawn out for a game we'd already seen plenty of and the end section was too ridiculous and made a bad last impression.

Overall: Some good stuff but no killer blow or major surprise that was needed especially after the other big two had strong conferences. Too much of a focus of games we already knew much about and not enough explaining newer, more unusual titles which took what people wanted but did not delivered in a way they wanted them and needed more explaining to make them more accepted as a result. ending was ridiculous. Unfortunately a underwhelming show, not exactly "worst E3 EVAR" but certainly not to fan expectations

Well there goes my hope for a announcement that Microsoft and Nintendo had worked out a way to allow Banjo Kazooie on Virtual console where it belongs...

Just noticed the absence of the promised KK Slider Costume...

Wasn't there rumours of a Shulk restock a while ago? Were they just rumours or was the restock America Only? Shulk is still the only currently released Amiibo I need despite having it on order from Amazon since December! Amazon didn't deliver when Shulk was released citing "due to lack of stock we have to deliver on a on a first come first serve basis" despite me ordering 3 months in advance!

I love the Amiibo as a concept as well as the figures themselves. However, Nintendo has completely screwed up the supply chain end of things. I'm luckier than some as I am only missing one figure (Shulk), but Nintendo's handling of the supply chain has been a absolute joke, with them not sending out anywhere near enough of most characters to meet demand. Amiibo have great potential but unless Nintendo fix the supply chain they risk alienating consumers. The cards will be an interesting test of extending the concept but I'm not sure how I feel, it will depend on price since I generally hate anything blind packed unless it's really cheap (blind packing is what put me off the Pokemon Rumble U figures, which you could call a precursor to Amiibo).

They should of either delayed the bundle until they could do it worldwide, offered an alternative eshop bundle for the rest of the world that america can't get, or as an absolute last resort, if worldwide was ABSOLUTELY IMPOSSIBLE not do it at all. Worldwide distribution of the bundle should of been one of those thing Humble should not of budged on.

I love Humble Bundle and was psyched to see this, until I noticed it was North and South America only with no love for europe, considering Humble does not normally have region locks on its offers this turns this from an absolutely awesome bundle, to a MASSIVE letdown for non american fans,

Yes I do Ink Myself when in danger, I learnt it from the Master of Ink Defence...

Just recently started playing some of the DS Dragon Quest games and am really enjoying them, so I hope this 3DS one will make it here to the UK!

I think the digital nature of these games has a big part of why these games price points are criticised, I admit I have a great difficulty justifying buying any digital download game for any more than £10 as I am on a budget (I will on occasions but only when its a game series with a proven track record like Phoenix Wright), which is strange as if I saw these games as physical objects sitting on a shelf in a physical store at the same price I would likely see it as a bargain. I prefer physical media and hold it at higher value than digital only content, even if the content is the same. Simply for some reason I (rightly or wrongly) see more value in holding something physical than digital. Other stores like Steam also have there part on this issue as that service that is constantly holding sales and selling digital content for low prices, are they causing gamers to expect more for less or simply catering to a demand? Are consumers expectations unreasonable and should they change them to support game developers, or do these developers have to simply adapt to the market? Sometimes selling games cheaper can mean more sales so you make more money overall...

Glad these came up as I had 500 stars remaining and nothing to spend them on, I got the Black and Blue "Nintendo Consoles" theme as I felt it looked the coolest.

Things Nintendo must Improve on the virtual console
Price:whenever I see a sale for Virtual console games on Eshop, I always think the sale price should of been the Normal price.

Cross-Buy: I own every major NES game on my 3ds, but I don't want to pay out the full cost just to get the same games on Wii U. If I buy a VC game on 3DS or Wii U I should get it for free on the other

More Frequent, Lager Updates: We are currently lucky if we get one VC game a week on either Wii U or 3DS VC and The WII U VC does not have the range of choice that Wii VC had (having Sega and Turbographix Games) and new games are being added much slower (Mario 64 was available within the first week on the wii but we only just got it now on the Wii U over TWO YEARS since the console launched).

Adding Gamecube titles: I'm sure the Wii U can handle Gamecube games, Come on Nintendo this should of been the first logical step up from Wii VC

Moving GBA games to 3DS VC: What were Nintendo thinking putting PORTABLE games on a home console? Its not like the 3DS doesn't have its own VC. They already proved it could be done with the 10 3DS GBA ambassador games which all play great.

Pokemon: WHY ARE THE MAIN POKEMON GAMES, the most popular Gameboy games of all time other than perhaps Tetris NOT ON 3DS VC?!?
Nintendo would make so much money.

@yokokazuo I checked and I am not banned (While I have completed Classic with all characters I have not completed all the other modes with everyone yet. Thanks for the heads up. I'm still gonna try avoid using Mewtwo until the Update hits as a precaution (I still have some new Mii costumes on smash and The new Streetpass games to play with in the mean time).

OH no I already beat both Classic and All Star with Mewtwo on my 3DS (First things I did after getting him as I was at the out and downloaded him via a wifi hotspot so I could use him immediately on 3DS). I only very rarely go online but I still don't wanna be banned!

@Grumblevolcano Thats the exact math I did to come to my conclusion about the costume prices.
I'm probably just gonna get Dunban and leave it at that.

Don't like the Bundle costume price, I calculated it and (Whether you get one version or both the Wii U and 3ds Versions combined) there is no difference in price for buying them in the bundle(s) compared to buying them separately. I was really hoping Smash would do some kind of season pass which works out cheaper in the long run and gives you a small bonus and a discount like Mario Kart and Hyrule Warriors had.

Managed to get the Triple Amiibo Bundle with XL T-shirt locked down and ordered in time before they sold out (I was lucky enough to be on the site doing my routine daily check when they showed up). Hope I am as lucky with the Greninja, Jiggly, Dark Pit, Palutena, Ganondorf, Z-Suit Samus, Bowser Jr, Dr Mario and Olimar Amiibo when they go up.

I Voted for Splatoon Inkling, It would work well in Smash and allow the new boys from Nintendo's new series (who are so new did not even exist when Smash bros was released) to fight it out with the classics like Mario

I hope other Yoshi figures work like smash Yoshi and I don't have to get one as I promised myself I would not buy variant figures... no matter how cute

Sad to see my favorite, WCW Mayhem didn't make the cut (I had the PS version but it was also on N64). I used to love how you could go backstage to fight during a match.

Used my Last remaining stars to get Alleyway(GB) and Paper Plane!
They were the only games I could afford with my remaining 1400 stars that I did not already own, but its better than nothing as I assumed those points would just vanish as their was nothing else I could've used them on (except maybe a 300 point Wii/DSI card) and I won't be getting more club points as my next planned Game purchase is Xenoblade 3DS (which is released after April 1st when codes stopped being packed in games).

I got one of these charging Cradle with my Ambassador 3ds, but I never use it as its impossible to play with the New 3DS if its in this cradle, as the cradle stops it from opening.

I what those Pikachu plates, reminds me of my old Pikachu 3ds XL.
