Darn. Yet another quality third-party title we missed out on. I just don't know if I can sleep at night knowing that Know Your Friends isn't on the Wii U.

I guess the option for VC would have been nice, but I can happily play without it. I am still really excited for this game!

Really? They're getting angry over 'Mario canon'? I liked it.

I have faith that Nintendo knows how to handle this.

I just hope this is as far as it goes. I don't want to see games that make microtransactions necessary.

I'm not big on anime, but hey it's free.

I don't really download much, so I was still 250 points away from getting anything...

Well, the only thing I can think of for day 12 is '12 plumbers plumbing'.

I actually like Montage Parodies, but this should not have been made into a game.

11 Metroids draining? I can't really think of anything to do with piping. Except for the Mario series, which has already been in this song twice...

'9 villagers dancing' is my suggestion for tomorrow, for the Animal Crossing love.

It sort of appeals to me. The badges look nice and I wouldn't mind a little decoration. But how much would I be willing to invest in this, I wonder?

I do like 7 Bloopers/Zoras swimming, but both franchises have already been represented. @Gerbwmu has a nice suggestion.

It's just so colourful!

It's 6 geese-a-laying next, so might I suggest something to do with slaying or playing?

6 Pits-a-slaying, y'know for the KIU representation?

Man, I'd kill for some of this digital goodness. Oh well, guess I'll have to comfort myself with my physical Yoshi doll from the EU Club Nintendo E-shop.

JK, it would be nice to get some of these games.

How about 5 golden rupees, then? Although, that means that LOZ would have two verses then. Hmmmm...

@TheRealThanos I just can't seem to get anything right today ._.

It just has to be 5 golden coins.

@TheRealThanatos Sorry, I'm not very good at conducting what I want to say. I just think people take it a little too hard when something like this pops up, but my view on retro gaming has changed a little. I don't want to start an arguement here. Tbh I really can't offer much insight because I've never played Megaman.

Honestly, I don't really like retro games, or incredibly difficult ones. I just play for the experience and if part of that experience for you is the difficulty, then that's perfectly fine.

@Einherjar @ricklongo Of course, there has to be some challenge. What would be the point in playing a game if there was no challenge? I'm just saying that the difficulty of a game doesn't have to be a massive factor in having fun, though it can be. Yes, games have become more mainstream and I accept that as a factor in the dipping game difficulty, but I also maintain that games don't have to be difficult for you to get some value out of them, unless you like difficult games.

These games were hard so as to increase the play time of the game. Games don't have to be hard now we have more to work with and the capability to add more to the game through DLC, so really it's just a case that kids and teenagers like me are used to less challenging games. Just because it's easy, doesn't mean that it's not fun.

Well, that was weird.

For tomorrow, I suggest 'Four Wingulls' in the spirit of ORAS. It was the best I could come up with.

3 French hens, huh?

3 Starmen! Y'know, from Earthbound and SSB3DS Smash Run?

This one looks pretty decent.

SPOILER

Of course Hoopa's going to be involved in some way. Looks like it's another distribution legendary.

I just got a Link Amiibo from Toys R Us, there were like 15 Amiibo there. Surprisingly, Nintendo has the most shelves compared to the others there.

I really wish there was a little more hype for this because it looks great!

Well, we all know how that turned out.

Miyamoto seems awfully close to this particular franchise.

Gotta' be Link for me. He's my favourite and he's the most useful so far.

Wow, NintendoLife sure has changed.

I'm downloading it right now. The wait is torturous!

I'm super hyped for this game!

I like to think of amiibo as figurines that can interact with the game, not that they're tools that just happen to be figurines. Just owning them would be cool for me. Although, it is clear that Nintendo must convince consumers they made a good purchase.

As much as I LOVE the idea of racing on all those courses, I sort of want to hear more about Ice Ice Outpost.

This trailer sold me on the game. It looks like a lot of fun

Ah nuts, I just bought Siesta Fiesta pre-sale. Great game btw.

I'm finding myself checking on my ACNL town less and less, so I think I'll boot that up for the night.

So 2 for Wii U and 2 for 3DS. This sounds like it's enough.

Is this essentially confirmation that these amiibo characters will be getting a future game?

Phew. I mean for a while I was terrified of my system not being stable enough, but this has quelled my fear for now.

Maybe it's the placebo effect, but I can't help but notice that Shulk is a little faster and jumps slightly higher.

I think enough work has been done on this game already. Take it for what it is - A trailer that showcases the fighters and their skills.

Despite falling short at so many sales hurdles, they just keep making quality games. That's just amazing of them.

Cue the 'oh man, I feel so old' comments.

I'm disappointed that no-one is sharing photos of themselves waking up in a similar fashion.

Well it's nice to see some positivity. I don't even mind if the Wii U comes last in the console race, as long as we get good games for it and it certainly has delivered.

If you build it, they will hack.

Nice article, I love video game music, some of the best pieces are in video games.

I love how everyone's getting one all of a sudden, except for blackyoutuber.

I entered yesterday around 11:30ish.
