I'm gonna be waaaaay too occupied with the Switch to pick this one up, although I simply LOVE the mario sports titles. Super Sluggers, Mario Tennis, Mario Golf, Strikers/Strikers Charged, you name it.
What does it matter? This is mainly a home console anyway. It's just an upgraded(and I mean REALLY upgraded)Wii U. We all have our 3DS for games on the go anyway.
@PlywoodStick I paid $10 at GameStop for games like Kirby 20th Anniversary and Mario Power Tennis. I can totally see why this game wouldn't hold your attention. The only reason I still play it is to get all the special coins. And toad rally.
@ProfessorToad I agree with you completely. This game was pretty good, but overpriced. I think five bucks would have been ideal, maybe six, and from the start. That fake-free-to-play junk is all over the App Store. When you see a game on the App Store that says it's free and looks good, you want to get it. Then once you get into the game you realize "Oh, wait, this is ten bucks. I don't want to pay this" and you delete it. I payed it this time since it was Nintendo, but normally I'd just trash it.
They might could actually SELL the Wii U if they dropped the prices... $300 is just sad after it's failure... I liked it, but I know maybe 5 other people that have one. Only one or two who still play it. I'm treating myself to a 3DS this year. Don't have one yet. Can you guys maybe recommend me some games?
I bring good news and tidings of great joy, which will be to all people(no, I am not Linus)!
MARIO RUN IS NOW THE NUMBER ONE FREE APP ON THE AMERICAN APP STORE!
wee-ooo🎉🎉🎉
No, I don't mean top grossing
@StarDust4Ever
You don't know what ads are until you play Angry Birds on the new update... It's like spamming on an online game but with ads. And may I add that they use the SAME AD EVERY TIME.
(Bad pun alert)
Stay as a console gamer. It's best. 😀
Half of these are SO close Mario that some people I know wouldn't even be able to tell them apart... The App Store should REALLY take these down, especially since SMR came out.
@RainbowGazelle I want to apologize for starting a rant against you. I didn't know it caused THIS much argument. You are completely entitled to your own opinions, even if most don't agree with them. The only thing that ticked me off is that you said Mario fans were arrogant. Of course, that's not ALWAYS true, but I think I'm gonna be able to get over it. So seriously-
@AlternateButtons You forgot the deranged green guy who kicks while he jumps and is scared of ghosts, yet somehow always kills them with ease, and STILL somehow manages to be on the top five Mario character list of almost anyone, including me. Now that's what I call diversity.
@bitleman @jwfurness Have either of you guys seen that part in the BotW E3 trailer where Link shoots a bow at a buck? THAT is what I thought of when you said "Splatoon controls." Splatoon being one of my favorite games, I think, if they could control the framerate, that it would work great. Just if you used the gamepad or the Joycon-thingy-with-the-screen.
@RainbowGazelle okay, first of all, take a chill pill. Now, if Mr. Miyamoto was right here looking your comment, what would he think? He worked very hard on the main franchise of video games themselves. If you're more of a LoZ guy then that's fine. But PLEASE don't insult us Mario people so violently. Say what you want, we are not arrogant.
When I downloaded my copy yesterday it took a really long time to download. And when I tried to pay ten bucks to get the full game it took half an hour. But the traffic has probably died down now, most people are going to think it's overpriced and that's why it can't bring the stock up. I am in no way in agreeance that it'S overpriced, I'm on world 6 and can tell you that it was well worth my money. And this app DID get a TON of attention on the App Store, I just think that not as many people want to pay $10.00.
A problem with framerate can ruin a game. I played Sonic CD on my iPad and the frame rate dropped SO much that it kicked me out of the app like 5 times before I got to the first water level.
But I know the secret way to fix it! Turn off wifi. ...Why won't my game work? Oh, wait...
When I first got my Wii U, I actually thought it was portable and that I could take it anywhere. So I took it out and walked down the street with the game pad only to realize that it was just a misconception. And that shows how poorly Nintendo advertised the thing. You have to give it some slack since it had to compete with the Xbox 360 and Ps3 ALONG WITH Xbox One and Ps4, but honestly I think they did their best with their library of titles.
They just missed two.
SUPER. SMASH. 64. (Virtual Console, of course.)
POKÉMON. SNAP. U.
I honestly think that the name of it was to create hype since the Wii was so popular. Well, that failed. But the games! They were amazing!

Re: Nintendo Addresses the Question of Link's Green Tunic in Breath of the Wild
I'm guessing it's part of that $20 expansion pack they announced recently. That would make the most sense.

@FragRed the Super Bowl LI commercial is great, isn't it? Can't wait to hear what people thought.
Re: Super Mario Odyssey, Breath of the Wild and Splatoon 2 Lead Switch Reveal Trailer Views
I'm really not surprised at all. I think these three are going to be the best games for the Switch in 2017, no doubt.

That's a lot of cells to get, but Zygrade is an amazing legendary that is totally worth it.

Shy Guy might be a good option as a character. I didn't even know Peach was a character you could play as.

Re: Pokémon GO Was Google's Most Searched Term of 2016
The game that was ruined by the updates. I don't know why they let a small company like Niantic do it. Would've been much better with Nintendo.
As for now, I have high, high hopes for Super Mario Run.
