So I guess Cult County has been scrapped?

I see 2015 since that's the 30th anniversary of the franchise. (At least for SMB).

Also just because we're getting a SSB ND tuesday doesn't mean we won't get a regular one this month. Remember August?

Hopefully a release date is announced. I see 2 characters being revealed, Yoshi and a newcomer.

Do people really think that Iwata being replaced will magically make all the problems disappear?

Kinda true honestly. I doubt we'll ever see a game like The Wonderful 101 on PS4 or XBO.

Seems that while for some it may be good, but the odds of it becoming your new favorite 3DS game are slim.

@Superiorspider

OH HECK NO! DKC: TF is a masterpiece!

I was hoping for a 7/10.

Um any idea when the reviews are coming? the game is releasing this Friday.

Wasn't interested anyway.

Just emailed a complaint to Nintendo about their poor performance as of late.

While I do like the GamePad, he kind of has a point. It has done more harm than good.

Looks like i'll have to start saving up for PS4.

I guess it was a good thing I waited. I'll definitely be picking this up in April. Should be about $30 in the US right?

@Doma

Nintendo gave us The Wonderful 101 with Platinum Games. Didn't go so well.

Disappointing but it is what it is. And I'm sure people are saying "Should've been Metroid", but Metroid wouldn't have done any better. If anything it probably would've done worse. Japan cares little about Metroid.

9/10 as expected. can't wait to pick this up friday,

man some people are never pleased.

Anyway, I'm happy. to me Bayo2 was the main highlight.

@Blue_Yoshi

2PM PT/5PM ET. will cover wii u and 3ds games in spring. it'll be 41 minutes long.

Nintendo DIrect today. Surprise eShop title announcement maybe?

Not getting my expectations too high..though an announcement of the original Bayonetta for the Wii U eShop would be nice.

Yep, this is why we can't have nice things. This is why Nintendo consoles can't have good third party support anymore.

Wow that screenshot is stunning. the techies at Shin'en are wizards.

I definitely agree that that loyal customers should be rewarded. Still bummed about MK8 not being released until May though.

I want Super Mario 64 DS and Metroid Prime Hunters.

I'd say Palutena is most likely in the roster.

5.86 million Wii U's sold from launch to the end of 2013? a bit higher than I expected.

Yes it will have online MP.

I'd say SSB but MK sells more and the new SSB is coming to 3DS as well. And Sakurai isn't going to make the 3DS version suck for the sake of Wii U.

Yeah I think a $50 price cut combined with Mario Kart 8 would help a lot. Mario Kart 8 is the biggest Wii U game this year.

Good luck. Tbh I think a resignation mid-gen would hurt more than help.

Their own fault. Since Bill Trinin is the head of the NoA marketing department, if anyone needs to be fired it's him lol.

Good for them. their own HQ should allow them to become more efficient.

I'm sure 3ds will have a good 2014, but probably not as good as 2013. And I for one look forward to Yoshi's New Island.

Obvious: game probably wouldn't sell on Wii U due to the userbase/demographic.

@Samurairu I'm blaming NoA as a whole. But not surprised that mainly Reggie gets attacked. Its human nature to blame the guy in charge first.

I'd be game for a Mario Strikers U.

No SMB3? I expect nothing less from the ever incompetent NoA.

If that's the case can they make a new star fox or metroid then?

Easy:
-Release your games on time.
-Don't make promises you can't keep.
-Actually MARKET Off-TV Play
-Work harder on getting third party on board.

$15 sounds fair to me.

I can feel Super Mario Galaxy 3 getting closer...

Dynasty Warriors Zelda Edition? unexpected, but looks really cool. I hope it has online multiplayer.

If there's a new game announcement from Nintendo, it better be for the Wii U.

Probably won't be able to watch it live but I can't wait! I'd like a surprise game announcement, but I won't lose sleep if it doesn't happen.

Seriously just buy the console if you need the game that badly. Nintendo backing is the only reason the game is even coming out.

Despite it being Dk related, he did seem to imply that a Metroid game is in the works.

@Blastoise-san

Yeah they should. Nintendo needs more developers.

Sad but Unsurprising. The UK was never big on Nintendo and Nintendo has pretty much lost EA support, which means no Fifa. Fifa is huge in the UK. I know not everyone here likes EA, but Nintendo needs to get them to cooperate somehow.

But anyway, I still enjoy my Wii U and can't wait for Donkey Kong.
