The new "quality of life" platform or whatever is interesting, and I would like to see what it is, but I doubt it'd be something I'd use if it's just related to health, education, etc.
Advance Wars: Days of Ruin, or even Dual Strike, I haven't played either and would really like to. NSMB would make there be 3 of those games available on Wii U, 4 if you count backwards compatibility...
Keep it, it makes Wii U a unique console, Nintendo is actually making each one of their consoles a completely new experience. The Gamepad works well, and is a surprisingly comfortable controller despite the size. I see nothing wrong with it, even though there hasn't been a game to make "full" use of it's potential, it still adds something great to each game. (even if it's just off-tv play)
While I do prefer having all of Nintendo's later consoles and hope they never go into the smartphone business, it would be kind of interesting to see how this would've worked out.
GCN games on Virtual Console would be awesome, I know I missed a few great games on there. It'd probably be cheaper than purchasing the games for my actual GCN, and Wii U Gamepad support, so yeah, I'd definitely get some of those.
Obviously fake footage. But I'd change my mind about videos like this if the demo title screen actually did look exactly like that. But I know that won't happen.
With the Galaxy HD Collection, why not combine the two games into one? Galaxy 2 felt basically like DLC to the original, almost as though they were one game before. They could just use one hub world and be able to access the Galaxies from both games. (in a different order so it's from easiest to hardest with levels from both games being in only one)
The majority of these games interest me, Nintendo really needs to get on these ideas for some new games. They'd earn so much money from me and other people...
For Mario and Luigi's Mansion, I feel like part of what makes Luigi's Mansion so great is that it is a game starring Luigi, rather than Mario taking over his spot. Yeah, there were some games starring him for Year of Luigi, but it was only for one year.
I'm most looking forward to Kirby: Triple Deluxe and Shantae Pirate's Curse, Bravely Default is something I'll have to look into though. The others don't excite me at all, and I'd rather get Smash Bros. on Wii U than 3DS. I'm in hopes of some new interesting games to be announced for the 3DS later this year, as there doesn't seem t be much coming. Probably because Nintendo is focusing more on Wii U.
@Qeuix I'm pretty sure Flipnote Studio 3D is still coming, Nintendo hasn't officially confirmed it being cancelled, they simply haven't mentioned it at all since that Nintendo Direct it was revealed in...
@TreesenHauser Yeah, and we're just lucky Nintendo has actually made up for many of these events in the past, like the 3DS price drop. It may be completely different from this, but Nintendo doesn't need to give us some sort of gift every single time something like this happens.
2013 was perhaps the greatest year for the 3DS, tons of truly amazing titles. The Wii U had a few good ones as well, but nothing could top 3DS, it's even better than any of the home consoles available currently in my opinion.

Re: Game Boy Advance Titles To Hit Wii U Virtual Console From April Onwards
I'm so glad they're finally coming to Virtual Console, the announcement was made over a year ago...
Re: 3DS Sales Tracking Ahead of Game Boy Advance In Japan
I wouldn't be surprised if the 3DS oversold the GBA worldwide within the next couple years, it's doing pretty well.
Re: Club Nintendo Rewards Updated for February
PiCTOBITS is the only one I don't own, I used to when I had a DSi. Really I don't remember the game at all so I'll likely purchase that with my coins.
Super Mario RPG is in there though so it's automatically great.
Re: Poll: Have Your Say on Satoru Iwata's Nintendo Strategies
The new "quality of life" platform or whatever is interesting, and I would like to see what it is, but I doubt it'd be something I'd use if it's just related to health, education, etc.

Re: The Legend of Zelda (Tentative Title)
@NintendoCat14
It's just the expected release year, it hasn't been officially announced yet.
Re: Mario Kart 8 Drifting In For a May Release
I'd prefer an April release, but May is alright, at least it's not getting delayed at any rate.
Re: Satoru Iwata Confirms That DS Games Are Coming To The Wii U Virtual Console
Well there are some DS games I missed, I'll likely download some if they're available. But I do wish GCN games would come instead.
Re: Talking Point: Is There A Future For The Wii U Without The GamePad?
Keep it, it makes Wii U a unique console, Nintendo is actually making each one of their consoles a completely new experience. The Gamepad works well, and is a surprisingly comfortable controller despite the size.

Re: Monster Hunter 4 Ultimate Confirmed for the West
And I was just about to get MH3U, well, that should hold me over until this one releases!
Re: Feature: Nintendo Games Our Readers Would Love to See in 2014
GCN games on Virtual Console would be awesome, I know I missed a few great games on there. It'd probably be cheaper than purchasing the games for my actual GCN, and Wii U Gamepad support, so yeah, I'd definitely get some of those.
Re: Nintendo Confirms Rambi's Return in Donkey Kong Country: Tropical Freeze
It's nice to have Rambi back again, but I do want to see some new animal buddies as well. There probably won't be any...
Re: Talking Point: What Games Are You Playing This Weekend? - Issue Twenty One
Continuing Rayman Legends and Super Mario 3D World, but also going to try and finish up Pokémon Y, the Elite Four is pretty difficult to beat.
Re: Here Are Some Monstrous eShop Discounts for North America
I was planning to get Monster Hunter 3 Ultimate soon anyway, this is probably a good chance to do that.
Re: Video: Please Don't Let This Wii U Star Fox Footage Get Your Hopes Up
Obviously fake footage. But I'd change my mind about videos like this if the demo title screen actually did look exactly like that. But I know that won't happen.

Re: Animal Crossing: New Leaf Postmortem Discussion Coming to GDC
I love Animal Crossing: New Leaf, should be interesting to hear about this.

Re: Feature: The Biggest Wii U Games of 2014
Well, my choice would likely be Zelda U, but out of the games listed, I had to go with either Mario Kart 8 or Bayonetta 2.
Re: Game of the Year: Nintendo Life Readers' Awards 2013
Most of my picks were actually on the list surprisingly. And if I had played 3D World before voting, then it likely would've been my GotY choice.
But this is a great list.
