Wow, saw Animal Crossing coming a mile off but Fire Emblem was a big surprise. I guess AC is their pitch to the casual apps users while FE is pitched to the gamer crowd..

As a European Nintendo nut, I was consumed with jealousy last time. This time I'm full of joy. Especially as I owned nothing in the bundle so far. This is a great haul but even if I had most or all of it, I'd have still given something to just to show support for it coming to the EU. Loving some of the comments here, actually been laughing out loud at some

RUN TO THE HILLS!

Is this because NOA are sick of people getting hysterical about their localisation process or because they're now focussed on NX projects?

NX Virtual Console no doubt

@EiserMeiser "Is this some form of jealousy from the UK because Scandinavian schools and welfare continue to rank among the best in the world?" - wow, can someone get me a bandage for the burn?

Seems fair enough to me. I upgraded to a 32gb card when MH4U came out

@BMORRI Sorry, I meant to say "ラングリッサー リインカーネーション －転生"

@Yasume Sorry, must have missed the announcement. I normally keep a close eye out for any Japanese RPG/Strategy stuff

Langrisser Re:incarnation Tensei? That's come out of the blue...out tomorrow?

its a good, meaty controller. When playing games with the kids, they get the Wiimotes but Dad gets the WiiPad. It makes Super Mario Maker possible which alone justifies it. Sure, shame its not been utilised more but when the era of the Wii U is long gone, I will still have warm fuzzy feelings about it. I'm a proud Wii U owner.

If Warner Bros give it a gritty reboot, I will cry

I would love it to be done well but I somehow doubt it would be

It would make sense as these are amazing games that have all come out on a platform with disappointing sales. However, if they do this, Nintendo risk upsetting the loyal fans who supported them on Wii U. I would hope they would offer free or very cheap upgrades to those who already own them.

thanks for that!

I think the option to play as Linkle or Zelda is a cool idea. Probably won't do so myself but anyone who thinks this option is in someway harmful to the series is just being a drama princess (and not a Zelda or a Peach!). I'm more upset about it not being a Wii U exclusive because that means the Wii U will never have had an exclusive Zelda game which is a shame, but I do get that Nintendo has to make money,

As someone who is habitually late, I think I would be ill placed to judge them. Heck, I got asked by a publisher to write a book once and handed it in 15 months late. These delays are nothing. Obviously, its frustrating for folks who paid up front but that's how Kickstarter works. Any sane person would rather have a finished product late rather than a half-baked version on time.

@iamDTS Me too.....but playing em ona little touch screen? Yuck, I'll just wait and keep hoping.

Pfffft! Console emulators on a touch screen phone? Get a 3DS and use VC you dirty cheapskates

Am I the only one who can't tell a difference? I'm sure technically there is one but when I look at the two, I don't noticed anything. A bit like when I compare a max-res mp3 with a wav file - the facts state there's a difference but I don't hear it.

Was really quite enjoying it, despite the dull dungeons, but then it crashed on me when I'd not saved for a couple of hours and now I just can't be bothered

Very sad but business is business. Wii U will always have good memories for me and my family but it just wasn't to be...

Its odd. They can see the love but they just don't seem to know what to do with him

Sounds like a load of flapping about nothing. You want to play games as they were originally presented in Japan? Learn Japanese then.

Sounds good to me. Since the demise of Club Nintendo and the Platinum Points thing, I've really felt their absence. This was pretty much what I was hoping for.

OOOHHHH, I only have Wind Waker out of that lot. Count me a happy punter

Wow, that is a thorough list. Some of it making me cry with laughter, others making me scratch my head...but going to stay away from google just in case I see something I never wanted to

I like the idea of it but full whack? Hmmmmmm.

Yeah, sounds legit. I'll buy that sucker ASAP.

but will it be for Wii U.....or NX?

@skwaark oops, I should have drunk more tea before I commented. Good point, well owned.

I can understand why games take ages to come over from Japan but I don't understand delays between Europe and America for games.

Fantastically mad. I love it

If I was in charge of the development team, I'd have 2 killer launch titles made in house. One would be an old faithful souped up beyond all expectation and the other one would be a total out of the blue surprise.

It would make sense to put an enhanced complete edition as pre-installed software. Low development costs, a big name for those who skipped the Wii U and no doubt lots of juicy new extras for the faithful

Benedict Cumberbatch should do the voice for the Western version

These comments are a let down. I wanted angry people demanding more incest. I'll be back later.

On a scale of 1 to 10, I'd rate it 12 for weird. Glad its gone

Well, localisation is localisation. Sounds like a funny, whacky scene but if the big N reckons it'd be bad for business then they got to do what they got to do. It's a pretty trivial change and no big deal. Certainly not as big a deal as the lack of a European release date!!!!

When the game was first announced I wasn't very interested, having completed it on the Wii only about 3/4 years ago. Then when I saw how cool the amiibo looked, it made me think again. Compared to the sheer rip-off greed of the Stars War Battlefront DLC on the other consoles, this is great value. Wish they'd done it for Skyward Sword instead, though

Amazing collection

How hard is it for people to understand that it the boob slider and sexualised 13-year old had been left in, the press could have crucified Nintendo? Do you not understand that in such a case, all the major stores in America (and many in Europe) would refuse to stock the game. Nintendo are not trying to treat you like children, they are trying to bring you this cool game without having the media bury it. If Nintendo were not to bring the game more in line with Western sensibilities then it simply would not financially be viable to release it here.

JRPGs are always changed a lot for Western audiences. Sometimes some things get lost in translation, other things are not culturally compatible. If you check an American or European mainstream media, you'll find they take a very dim view of leering at 13-year old girls. It's the kind of thing that can get you violently assaulted.

I'd like Mother 3, Zelda U and some big surprises. I'd also like all the people who don't know the difference between "localisation" and "censorship" to go into their local bar and talk very loudly about their issues with Xenoblade X so they can perhaps get a more nuanced view of how their society views these things that they seem to feel entitled to

Come on people, make sure you buy yourself this classic game asap

Sounds like the most Japanese game ever. I love how baffling all the pre-publicity is. I've no idea what will be going on but I'm all for it

After yesterday's dullness, I'm all over this. Well, both the Wii U releases. the 3ds ones aren't for me

December 4th can't come soon enough. Maybe The Hut will send me the game a day early...that'd be sweet, I'm off work that day

There's just no hype around this title apart from us highly informed folks who scour sites like this. Which is a crying shame because it looks like a game worthy hyping.

I'd settle for getting number 3

Wow, a lot of people freaking out over a minor change made during localisation.

Nothing for me on the list but intrigued by these deals they're going to announce. A nice Pikmin3 discount wouldn't go amiss
