"Nintendo producer Kensuke Tanabe has confirmed that Retro Studios is working on a brand new game, and it’s been in development for a few months. As for what it is, Kelbaugh won’t say much."
Who knows, perhaps he's already working on the new soundtrack for Metroid U or StarFox U.
Bring on the YOY! Year of Yoshi! New 3DS XL Yoshi Limited Edition, two games already announced (Yoshi's New Island and Yoshi Yarn). Here's hoping for more Yoshi's games yet to be announced.
Well, I pre-ordered at 3DS XL (at least I hope it is, lol) currently described as "Available SKU" at GameStop. It only shows "Available SKU" with retail price of $199.99 and release date of March 14th. So if you make an educational guess this will have to be a 3DS XL Yoshi Bundle, Here's hoping I'll get the one pictured on this article in North America.
I was at GameStop this afternoon, they are already taking a pre-order for a "Available SKU" priced at $199.99 with a release date of March 14th. Same day Yoshi's New Island comes out. So a new 3DS XL bundle is most likely on the way, hopefully it will be a limited edition. Bring on the Year of Yoshi!
This week Target U.S. is selling 3DS XL including the Mario and Luigi Limited Edition for $175 USD. Yes, we've seen a much lower price of $150 USD at Target. Personally, I will wait for the next 3DS XL Limited Edition. Hopefully, the WeeGee Limited Edition will eventually hit our shore.
@shigulicious If or more like when this happens, it will be my 3rd Wii U console in 18 months. I'd pre-order this system if announce in the next Nintendo Direct.
The Wii U supports multiple gamepads (at least a second one). Nintendo needs to implement the usage of a second gamepad in MK8, SSB4 and future first party games to enrich gameplay. This allows selling more gamepad as an additional accessory and generate additional revenue.
Game support sells consoles, not! Look at PS4 and Xbox One sold millions units with a promise of games in the near future and both lack of backward compatibility support. I blame marketing and branding for sluggish sales of Wii U.
If you live in Canada keep an eye on the weekly sales at Chapters/Indigo. I got my 2nd Wii U Wind Waker Limited Edition for only $201 CDN plus tax. Chapters/ Indigo was selling it for $210 and I went to Best Buy to price matched plus 10% of the difference. You can price match from Canadian Best Buy, FutureShop and ToysRUs plus 10% of the price difference.
QOL? What?!?! confused Just continue to make Quality Games (QG). For heaven sake, please make more, more, more games for Wii U! I want to buy a 3rd Wii U console limited edition MK8 bundle and make it RED!

Re: Nintendo Releasing a Wii Sports Club Wii U Hardware Bundle in Japan

Re: 3DS Sales Tracking Ahead of Game Boy Advance In Japan
If Nintendo keeps making 3DS XL Limited Editions, it may even outsell the DS. I wonder if we will have a new 3DS XL Lite this year?

Bundle Flappy Bird on Wii U and it will fly off the shelves. Or at least it will have the same faith. Pun intended of course.

Re: 3DS XL Owners Rejoice! Power-Up Pouches Arrive on Club Nintendo
