I like this. That is all.

All the pretty young things in modern Ninty ads make me feel old

Phew! That was some in-depth interview.

I have the same thing/problem with StarFox 64. Much better playing it with an N64 controller. I knew there was a reason I kept it around although now, obviously, I need an RGB mod on it

Excellent! I'm playing it on the shhhh Vita right now and it's great fun. He sounds like a really decent chap. Plus, I need that orange LP now.

I'm up for this if it's a kick-ass handheld that you can also play on the TV. Means that the 3DS is dead but also that devs can target just one machine which should/could mean a better flow of new titles.

@TommyRabbit You make an old man very happy

Doing the gamez mags is fun. Fact.

I want a Metrontra.

Best thing I've seen for ages

Get that bear into Smash, pronto.

cough $40 splutter

Apparently the Hyrule Warriors LE is also 'only at GAME' so I wouldn't put much stock by that. It'll be in the Ninty UK store soon.

I love that pull-quote. It's like a random Twitter comment. Yeah, I bet they're working on one'.

So much awesomeness and nostalgia is packed into those marquees. Where's the backlit special edition version?

If the lack of a spangly website is evidence that they're too busy, beavering away on cool games then I'm fine with it. That said - I'm free to come live in Austin and fill your site with awesome stuff, Retro. Y'know. Just sayin'. Ring me, OK?

@PlywoodStick I tend to get a neck/back ache before a headache. Used in moderation, though, it's good fun.

@Damo Yep, got both of those. Jack Bros. is pretty cool, too.

Can you imagine the horror of wearing a VB unit with some kind of Heath-Robinson esque head/shoulder mount set up? It's fine as it is and I still play it. There are some cool games and the 3D effect is great. Feels a lot like playing the old Battlezone arcade cab.

@placidcasual More of a big toe (one that's been stubbed, too).

@placidcasual Steve's a proper legend, I'm just a leg-end. Thanks for the kind words, though. Are you stil drawing? Nice bit of Pete Fowler SFA for your avatar

Buying? Oh, flippin' hell, YES!

@ChessboardMan It's true. I came to the decision last year that I really didn't want to do this stuff anymore but I guess I just needed a break. Unfortunately the Kickstarter book came at the wrong time and I had to pull out. Nobody's fault but my own.

@Frapp Good grief - someone who remembers Smart Bomb!! There will be an #2 soon but I let it lie for the longest time while I tried to learn how to draw better.

I'd imagine that most people don't scour the net for every bit of gaming news and they don't yet know about WiiU so I can see this doing well (providing it's priced accordingly, of course).
