Also if the delay is to make improvements to the game I must say well done to Ubisoft for not rushing it out just for the sake of being there on day one.

I've only just started Origins so this works out great for me. Would have been fun to have played this version with the family over Christmas though, fingers crossed they put out an early demo.

Anybody know if these levels save to the cart or SD card, and if the new levels will work if you play on another system?

@sinalefa Ah you are right, I never have cared much for the series. I did want to try the Metal Gear Rising demo in the over 18 section but the waiting time put me off.

@RadioShadow I would have thought so, but I didn't buy anything so not really sure

@ogo79 that is Metal Gear Solid, they had a timeline with most of the games in the series available to play, they didn't seem to have the Game Boy Colour version though

I was there today, 148 street pass hits! Really impressed with ZombiU and the Luigi's mansion game in Nintendo Land.

Got my code fine on the 5th.

I want to see a black wii with a red disc slot light

Excellent game, I got it from the Mac app store. Thoroughly recommended.

Should have made it so you turn the DS sideways

I'm confused, where does it plug in? I've heard someone mention it uses the IR port, but that would mean that it needs its own battery and it will drain the 3DS further. Another option would be wireless communications or through the game port I guess, neither are ideal.

Good move, anyone buying a wii in the last few years would be unaware of GC support anyway. Also notice that in the image the Wii logo is turned around and there is no stand implying that it can only be laid flat. Unfortunately it makes it look even more similar to a Wii U which will cause much confusion I'm sure.

"What a steal", how very topical

The card trick is rubbish. Still waiting for the other to download, I think they are being a little unrealistic to expect a whole video to download via spot pass. It doesn't seem to want to download anything while playing a game which is a shame. There better be something good on the virtual console this week to make up for this disappointment.

Vektor Tank 3D+ looks way too 3D. The slider does nothing of course, but looking forward to more 3D content on the site

They seem to have missed a golden opportunity to promote Kirby video games within the channel interface. More people need to know about Epic Yarn!

Wow, did not expect DK so soon, I figured that they were going to go through the back catalogue in order. It would be nice if they used the Super Gameboy version as the cart was programed to display in colour, plus it featured a DK cabinet boarder

...but not wiiu.com Looks like someone beat them to it!

Headphone jack needs moving to the bottom of the controller

It won't be out before E3, I'm guessing September in Japan, and November for America and Europe, and while I'm at it I think it will cost £280

I wonder if they will allow the playback of movie DVDs on this thing, imagine streaming the movie to the controller which you can watch and control in another room.

You are going to be using your fingers most of the time, so this is a huge disappointment, you need to apply pressure to resistive screens which is a real pain after you have used an iPad. Plus they scratch and bobble overvtime unlike a glass surface.

Does anyone know if the touch screen resistive or capacitive and does it have multi touch?

I'm in the browser now, by the way You Tube does not work. Not very impressed with the shop, feels clunky and restrictive and you have to sit and watch your downloads (not in the background). 3D trailers look ok if a little grainy, and whats with the 2D screen shots?

Well thats far too expensive, GB games need to compete with the £0.59 apps, they are in black and white after all!

I had a lot of fun with this, very addictive and it had some mario themed bonus levels. Don't think I would want to play it now though.

Don't know what I'm doing wrong but my 3DS refuses to recognize my SD card with this file on it. Now its deleted its back to normal again, wont be messing about with this again!

GameCube had the first analogue shoulder buttons with a digital click at the bottom. And although wireless controllers had been around for ages I believe the Wavebird was one of the first to use RF rather than IR. If only Nintendo had made this the standard controller I believe the system would have sold much better.

It may be true, but could be a misunderstanding. Technically the Wii remote features a camera

No interest in the Move, but would love a real PS3 site

I believe Goddard was also involved in the GC version of Doshin the Giant. I loved that game.

Most of the originals are on gameplay.com for under £20 already. Animal Crossing is £16.99 and comes with the Wii Speak.

How much will they charge UK gamers for the budget games? I expect £19.99 which is way too high, £15 would be best

Starfox lava boss

For some strange reason I was playing the Banjo GBA adventure game today on my GB micro, I would love to see a follow up to the N64 games

That table has no labels

Dose anybody know the range street pass works over? Also I wonder if it would work if you were passing each other in a car. I have 7 hits so far but am now turning my system off to save the battery more.

With Mario Kart and Paper Mario already coming Nintendo will hold this one until at least late spring 2012.

Probably a new Donkey Kong, the last one sold well and I'm sure Nintendo want to repeat that on the next console and I can't see it going to another developer when Retro have already invested a lot or resources into it. Hopefully it won't be a 2D platformer, but better than DK64. I would like to think Nintendo have given Starfox to the Sin and Punishment team at Treasure.

The cover art says the 3D is only suitable for ages 7+, however the game itself is only suitable for 10+ lol

Before the launch Nintendo UK had stated that 140,000 of the 185,000 UK machines had been pre ordered. It looks like some of the retailers were telling porkies to try and claim as much stock for them selves. A walk around the high street during the week showed there are units in stock at most retailers so its not quite the start some like myself were expecting. I expect things to change when people actually get to play it, marketing and awareness for this product seem pretty low at the moment.

No problems with mine yet. I have UK machine with Pilotwings and the latest update installed.

The original on the iPhone is excellent and will suit anyone who likes Mario Golf.

This is similar to the Tesco website deal last week, which was buy a 3DS for £197 and get any game for £10. I ordered Pilotwings and the black machine, it came to £207 and I then got another £20 off with staff discount. It came Thursday afternoon which was another nice bonus!

I just think its a little hypocritical for Nintendo to bang on about the quality of the game on other devices when it has little to no interest in the quality of the vast majority of retail games for Wii and DS. Every one I know now regards Wii games as being of poor quality based on their own experiences, unfortunately they have just been playing all the shovelware Nintendo is allowing to be published. It is absolutely right that a company like Nintendo should have systems in place to control the quality of the content that will represent the platform, but to ignore creative ideas just because they haven't come from within the development community?

So Tetris was rubbish because it didn't come from within the industry? Just lost some respect for Nintendo today.

Maybe just me but this looks a little less cartoony than last time we saw it. Then again could just be the darker environments.

@ thebluelight1, well observed, this is a grey scale Aqua Blue machine. The 3D light indicator is the give away. I like it better than the official colours though!
