It would make more sense to release the trilogy on WiiU, imo. For the third chapter, I'd say make it longer, with a story that changes and develop according to the player, choosing different levels and whatnot. That will add replayability to the title.
@Vineleaf Really? I thought that was pretty poor, after all 'Hardcore gamers' are proportional to 'Mainstream gaming' like Captain Ahab is to Greenpeace.
If it has enough content (single and multi/online), and they promise to keep supporting it, I'm ok with paying the 'extra few bucks'. Eagerly awaiting NL review, on this one.
@Grumblevolcano Seriously, you think they based these decisions on that game alone? If anything, that game was just a prelude to what's happening now, a telling sign of the whole (now uncovered) story.
If done right it could be great for Nintendo. Their IPs (well, most of them, anyway) are well suited for mobile apps, that will entice more people to buy their consoles and games.
But yeah, this is history.
Lol @ people trying to give political or racial interpretation of LotR. Of course Tolkien had his own views, and some of his opinions might have not been correct, and have influenced his writings in some ways. But the main general themes are the horror of war, power and the corruption it brings, death and immortality, and these are so vibrant, real and relevant today as they were back then, probably even more so. Aside from all of that, it's a brilliant fantasy work, imo the best of all times, and people should really read it more, instead of forming their opinions on it based on the movies.
Well, the bad news keep on coming today, what is it, friday 13th? ...oh right.
But seriously, is it wrong that I cared more about this than No9? At least this wasn't another 2D platformer...
That's not nice. At all. The irony is, Lego Hobbit is the best Lego game out there, imo. Well, aside from City U. Now, Tt, give us City Undercover 2 for Wii U, and I might - just might - forgive you.
Good idea. Problem is, RDR did set the bar very high, so yeah, devs (dev?) have a lot to do. They need some merit for trying something different from the 2D platformer invasion, though.
As someone already said, it's Candy'Mon. Moral issues aside (but if I were Nintendo I'd consider them, for various reasons), it would make more sense to release it only for smartphones.
The only FTP I expect from Nintendo on 3DS is the SteelDiverSubWars-type. That, I can get on board.

Re: Minecraft Tribute Cube Creator 3D Shows Off Its Survival Mode
I like it, hope it gets to Europe soon.
Re: Game Jam Tasks Developers With Creating A Zelda Title Starring A Female Link
@SanderEvers lol, that's a good one.
Re: Elliot Quest Developer Talks About a 3DS Port
I'd buy on WiiU or 3DS, if it comes to Europe.
Re: Nintendo Download: 26th March (Europe)
@Sakura Asterix?! A word of advice, try the demo first...
Re: Nintendo Download: 26th March (Europe)
Trine is a must, having bought and adored the 2nd one since the beginning, and maybe one or two discounts, I'll check'em out.

Re: Review: Trine Enchanted Edition (Wii U eShop)
@locky-mavo I was gonna ask the same.
Re: Dot Arcade Lights Up the North American Wii U eShop on 26th March
As an old 8bit-man, I can't but approve of this one. Will wait anxiously for a review.
Re: Poll: Where Do You Stand On DeNA, Smart Device Games, Nintendo 'Membership' And The Nintendo NX?
@Vineleaf Right, I'm with you now.
Re: Poll: Where Do You Stand On DeNA, Smart Device Games, Nintendo 'Membership' And The Nintendo NX?
@Vineleaf Really? I thought that was pretty poor, after all 'Hardcore gamers' are proportional to 'Mainstream gaming' like Captain Ahab is to Greenpeace.
Re: Weirdness: Can A Star Fox Barrel Roll Work In Space?
Interstellar shows some interesting use of rotation in space, I won't spoil anything though.
Re: Interview: Nintendo's Hiro Yamada On The Challenge Of Bringing Xenoblade Chronicles To The New Nintendo 3DS
@crzysortagamer This is clearly a joke. Xeno, MG and SS are 3 of the better looking on Wii, and they'd look absolutely stunning on a smaller screen.
Re: Exclusive: Affordable Space Adventures Pricing Confirmed, Aims to Retain Value Of Wii U Exclusive
If it has enough content (single and multi/online), and they promise to keep supporting it, I'm ok with paying the 'extra few bucks'. Eagerly awaiting NL review, on this one.
Re: Feature: We Catch Up With Four Nindies at EGX Rezzed
Getting a Neuromancer vibe from Dex, so defo interested in that.
Re: Square Enix's Failed Attempt At Combining Games And Anime Is Getting Pulled From Retail In Japan
Looked like Transformers X Pokemon X Xenoblade.
Re: Nintendo's Share Value Jumps a Massive 21% as Investors Respond Strongly to DeNA and NX Announcements
@dariusq Iwata said no ports.
Re: Talking Point: Nintendo's DeNA Plans and Ideas Are Smart, Not a Beginning of the End
@Quorthon Don't worry, for every fanboy there's a troll. And that's true for every company, even the one you support, believe it or not.

Re: Talking Point: Nintendo's DeNA Plans and Ideas Are Smart, Not a Beginning of the End
@Peach64 "Nintendo aren't in the business for the love of games"
...WAT?! Yes, I'm sure they'd prefer to be making shoe soles...WAT?!
Re: Reaction: The Nintendo 'NX', and Why We Think a Unified Platform is the Future
Better indeed.
Re: Nintendo Working On New 'Dedicated Game Platform' Codenamed 'NX'
Well, we've been saying it since WiiU came along, it makes perfect sense: Nintendo homeXportable.
Re: Nintendo Set To License All IP to Mobile Publisher DeNA
If done right it could be great for Nintendo. Their IPs (well, most of them, anyway) are well suited for mobile apps, that will entice more people to buy their consoles and games.
But yeah, this is history.
Re: First Screens From Banjo-Kazooie Spiritual Successor Are Revealed, Kickstarter Coming In May
Have this guys contacted Nintendo? I feel this could be ideal, as an exclusive on WiiU. And as a series, even, on current/future Nintendo systems.

Re: Gallery: The Natives Are Most Definitely Hostile In Cube Life's Survival Mode
Nice one, will be waiting for a review but sounds something I'll get.
Re: Kaio: King of Pirates, by Keiji Inafune's Comcept, is Officially Cancelled
Well, the bad news keep on coming today, what is it, friday 13th? ...oh right.
But seriously, is it wrong that I cared more about this than No9? At least this wasn't another 2D platformer...
Re: Review: Zombie Incident (3DS eShop)
It's lots of fun, shame the online leaderboard is broken, at the moment.

That's not nice. At all. The irony is, Lego Hobbit is the best Lego game out there, imo. Well, aside from City U. Now, Tt, give us City Undercover 2 for Wii U, and I might - just might - forgive you.
Re: Shapes of Gray Set for Spring Release, With Wii U Enhancements on the Way
@DracioKoi 50 shapes of grey? Could work...
Re: Review: 3D Out Run (3DS eShop)
@unrandomsam Pfft, no 3D.
Re: Review: Code Name: S.T.E.A.M. (3DS)
Time limit to end your turn in multi but not in single player? Well, that make sense, I wouldn't want it any other way.
Re: 50 Pinch Barrage!! Offers Many Ways To Die, And It's Coming To The North American 3DS eShop This Week
@GeminiSaint That could be a play on "mud", but "all you are your instincts"? That just sound wrong.
Game look very interesting, though.
Re: Pokémon Shuffle Updated Once Again, Adds a Special Kyogre Challenge
Yep, and after the update the passcode worked...
Re: First Passcode Released for Pokémon Shuffle
"This code should work worldwide"...well, it ain't working for me, then.
Re: First Passcode Released for Pokémon Shuffle
It says code is expired???
Re: A Cowboy's Tale from Nexis Games Rides to the Wii U eShop in 2016
Good idea. Problem is, RDR did set the bar very high, so yeah, devs (dev?) have a lot to do. They need some merit for trying something different from the 2D platformer invasion, though.
Re: Trine 3: The Artifacts of Power Announced for a 2015 Release
Day 1 buy for me, if they bring it to the U. I played the 2nd 3 times already, and I'll look into the remake of the 1st for sure.
Re: Video: Watch Us Fumble Through The Opening Minutes Of Affordable Space Adventures
Fell in love with this the first time I read about it, can't wait to play it!
Re: Review: Paparazzi (Wii U eShop)
Shame, with a "Career Mode", upgrades and some wacky story as background it could have been much better, I think.
Re: New Details Discovered on Xenoblade Chronicles X’s Exploration System
U don't play X, X play U. 😎
Re: Intriguing Indie Developer Simogo Teases Wii U Projects
Inspirational games, yes to that.
Re: Children of Morta Hits Stretch Goal to Confirm Wii U Release
Looking good! What's with the names, though? "Morta", "Dead"; mmmh, I see a pattern here...
Re: Reaction: Pokémon Shuffle Isn't Quite Microtransaction Hell, But It's Getting There
As someone already said, it's Candy'Mon. Moral issues aside (but if I were Nintendo I'd consider them, for various reasons), it would make more sense to release it only for smartphones.
The only FTP I expect from Nintendo on 3DS is the SteelDiverSubWars-type. That, I can get on board.
Re: Review: Kirby and the Rainbow Curse (Wii U)
Nice honest review, NL, as usual. Still might get it for the family, at some point.
Re: KnapNok Games and Nifflas Exploring Idea of Affordable Space Adventures on 3DS
One of my most anticipated for 2015.
Re: Nintendo Confirms Japanese eShop Release Dates for Sin & Punishment 2 and Pandora's Tower in Japan
What about Last Story? That I'd buy in a heartbeat. S&P2? Probably.
Re: Feature: The Heartwarming Tale of a Missing 3DS and a Stranger's Kindness
Well, what can I say? New Zealand, here I come!
But seriously, Gaby, well done!
Re: Nintendo Download: 19th February (Europe)
I'm on the fence for Lego Hobbit, have they released the dlc for the third movie? Or at least announced it?
Re: Guide: Getting The Most Out of Monster Hunter 4 Ultimate
Such a great game. Only thing I wish wasn't there is the time limit for quests.
Thanks for this guide, NL!
Re: Guide: How to Watch 3D YouTube Videos on Your Shiny New Nintendo 3DS
Wow, one more reason to upgrade!
