10-2, I was skeptical. Some of them were indeed ugly. Others, not so. But then #1 happened, and the video was uber-redeemed. Since we're spoiling it in the comments anyway I guess, Gen V is the absolutely, unequivocal worst. Over 60% of the Pokemon are terrible, and even if it's old hat, I'm glad the entire generation was recognized as being bad. But people trying to defend Gen V is really, really funny. This is my favorite thing of today.
I've seen the first three episodes. They're bad. I think they're trying to do the Sonic trope-busting, longtime fan wink wink nudge nudge thing like the comics, but it just feels wrong. It's done more to harm the characters' personalities and motivations than Sonic Underground. Like the game, the voice acting is awful (we miss you, Sonic Adventure 2 Battle) and it's just dumb. The only laughs it elicits are dry, 'why are you doing this' chuckles. Still, it's much better than the game, and probably is a little bit above Underground and Sonic X (which were awful, so take that how you will).
"Club Nintendo sometimes gets criticism for not providing regular updates of neat collectibles" Club NOA 101. Whenever I see the words "items" and "Club Nintendo", I know the words "not in North America" will soon follow.
I figured the speed run would be under two hours, but it's even faster than I imagined. If you have the game, hopefully you'll just never patch it ever. Hope this is on video.
This doesn't mean anything will happen ever, and it definitely won't be happening soon, or perhaps even on the next console (whenever that may be). I would've 100% purchased Fatal Frame V in Japanese to play it on my American Wii U though. I wanted to give them my money, so I would wholly support the removal of region locking from future consoles/handhelds.

Two months after release.
Re: Nintendo Direct Confirmed for 14th January, With Focus on Spring Releases
Well, it starts when work starts. I'll just have to be sneaky.
Re: Eternal Darkness Trademark Renewal Increases Hope of Franchise Return
I'd play a sequel. I don't see anything coming about from this, but it'd be cool.
Re: Renegade Kid Is Bringing Survival Horror Title Dementium To The Nintendo 3DS
More than likely. I enjoyed the second game, but never got to play the first, so this could be the perfect time.

Re: Feature: 12 Days of Nintendo Christmas - Day One
Those are lemon, peach, and orange trees. I'm offended.

Re: PDP GameCube-Style Wired Fight Pads for Donkey Kong, Link, Samus and Wario Due in Early 2015
I did pick up the Yoshi one (pre-ordered) and I use it for Smash. So baller.

I'm not holding my breath.
Re: Turns Out The GameCube Controller Adapter Won't Be Compatible With Other Wii U Software
Well, that's disappointing. Still buying it though, since SSBB4 will be played lots, and we already have a bunch of GC controllers.
Re: Master Quest DLC Details Emerge for Hyrule Warriors
I wouldn't say 'improbably-proportioned.'
