I'm getting so bored with NES games. We get it, Nintendo. They exist. Like, there's no break from getting them on the 3DS to the Wii U. Totally boring.

How about an advertising campaign for games that actually need it? Say, like the Wonderful 101?!

Why the fart hasn't SMG 2 surpassed NSMBWii?! In fact, why has NSMBWii sold NINE MILLION?!??

It takes a lot for me to like a third-party franchise. The reason I like Nintendo is because they don't go for realism in any way. There's no grit. It's all fantasy, and I love it. I've played all the way through to the end of Fallout 3, and it gave me some great memories, but at the end of the day, nothing a third-party franchise has given me has ever come close to the joy and pure wonder that any Nintendo franchise has.

I look at my top list of games, and they're all first-party Nintendo titles or second-party titles (a la Banjo-Kazooie, other Rareware games). I couldn't care less if another shooting game falls into my gaming collection, because I know I'll only play through it once and I'll either resell it or never come back to it again. What's the point?

I've been ogling these bad boys for some three years now. For the price, there will always be something I'll want instead... I really hope that I'll receive one as a gift, I love the design.

Oooh! Lookitdat Wario game! Nice to see some GBC support finally!

Loving the engrish!

@Zach777 Yep!

Anyway, always wished the original on GBA had come state-side, ever since I read a brief preview in Nintendo Power. ini

How about next time, you ask for 90,000 to create... oh, I dunno... something that's actually yours and original? Totally expected (and hoped) this would happen.

Shmups aren't my thing, but I totally am in favor of bringing more imports to US and EU!

This was very creative. Nicely done.

@PokeTune Getting really tired of all these gamers insisting Nintendo should drop the Wii U's price. 350 with two included games is more than enough value. Heck, even with one included game. You shouldn't underestimate or de-value the longevity and fun of the Wii U, it rules. It's already the lowest price of the three consoles.

Prototype or beta carts of unreleased games usually end up surfacing eventually... I'm always holding out hope that SOMETHING pertaining to this title will show itself. this is the one title that probably crosses my mind at least once a day. It looks so cool. I love the Nintendo 64's terrible graphics. Looking up promo vids of 64DD stuff just totally awes me.

Oh, God... Pokemon dubstep.

Wooooah, 7.99 for Trine 2? What is this the STEAM SUMMER SALE!??!? But seriously, huge value for a hugely entertaining game.

There's plenty for fans to be excited about. The publisher has stated that there will be guns in the game, and you will shoot people.

In other news, here's Ken with the daily percentage of blue in the sky.

I'm really not a huge RPG fan; I love EarthBound, and that's it really. I just don't like how auto-pilot MOST turn-based battles seem to be.

Regardless... on a whim, I picked up Dream Team for my birthday on Sunday. I'm mesmerized. This is my first Mario + Luigi RPG... I can't believe how good it is. And the battle system is exactly why. I love rhythm games, and the battles for this actually keep me conscious, they feel interactive. I love it! Once I beat this guy, I'll definitely have to pick up the others in the series.

I'm really sick of NOA. It sucks that I'm stuck with them for the time being. I don't even want to deal with how badly things are always run here. "Oh, hey, let's release those Streetpass Plaza DLC games a couple of weeks after the rest of the world gets it." "Tomodachi Collection? Sure, it's lighting the charts on fire in Japan, but ehhhh... let's not release it here." "Indie games? What're those?"

Sooo... is there a way to report Kickstarter projects? :3

@ieatghosts GYARH! Yer peg-legs be showin', matey!

@rjejr I live in a small apartment, and my Wii U is in my living room. If I want to do some late-night gaming in my bedroom WITH THE DOOR OPEN MIND YOU, it starts losing the signal at about 30 ft away. It sucks so bad.

円？Dollars? Pesos? Euros? Pounds?

@WinterWarm Agreed.

I'm verrrry fond of the makeover; if this is a new Link, give him his own identity!

Guys, you probably have to eshop dat stuff.

Misleading header, but stoked nonetheless.

I love how when we were kids, we would just eat everything that Nintendo (or whoever) released and loved every second of it. Now? We're a bunch of insatiable, cynical jerks who bemoan every minor thing.

Guys, it's Smash Bros. Luigi had the exact same moves from 64 in Melee. You didn't complain then. You didn't complain for Brawl "copying" melee (unless you're one of those "Wavedashing: my anti-Brawl" enthusiasts). Just stop. You know it's going to be good. Stop.

Ugh. No surprises means not a priority to watch it immediately.

@LunaticPandora THE PROPHET SPEAKS! Someone write this down!

"You will definitely like this one."

WELL THANK GOD. HERE I AM, EXPECTING TO HATE EVERY GAME PREVIEW I SEE.

More like Ten GAH. MI wait so long.

@ScorpionMG Actually, it is that simple. I've watched some tutorial vids on youtube about homebrew Wii emulators, and it's basically a process like:

See ROM.
Download ROM
Play ROM

Not in any way advocating this, but Nintendo seriously has no excuses, especially when Japan's VC is light years ahead.

So stoked to own this in the box. Loved it as a kid. If I glue my nostalgia goggles on tightly, I can totally enjoy it and transport myself back to eight years old. But it's sooooo hard to play. The respawn rate is absurd.

I'm kind of bummed that I got a Wii U so early. Then EarthBound came out on the VC. And then I stopped complaining.

DAT MUSIC. すごいですね～。:3333

@Tsuchinoko ROB isn't necessarily a video game character. He was a peripheral for the Famicom/NES. Plus, your argument is that it wouldn't be anything more than a joke. Do you really think that the Wii Fit Trainer is meant to be a serious addition to the roster? And I think many people /would/ get the joke. We live in an age where if one wants to know about something, they have unlimited resources to delve deeper. Pretty much everyone has the internet, and searching has been made easier than ever with the advent of wi-fi and smart phones. I'm sure that's how most people discovered more about Lucas and Marth/Roy.

At the end of the day, it's just a video game. Sakurai seems to want to shake up the formula by adding Wii Fit Trainer, I don't think adding Reggie should displease anyone.

@GN004Nadleeh How 'bout no.

@unrandomsam No excuses unfinished comment grammar.

@2Sang How can you judge a game that is only in Alpha? None of the other secret characters have been revealed. You said it looks weak other than two of the three characters that have been revealed. Give it some time, dude.

HOLY KATAKANA, BATMAN!

@Dogpigfish "went downhill after the SNES"

Aaaaaand you're done.

inb4 "NINETY NINE SENTZ, HOOBA JOOBA WHAAUUUUHHH?!?!? I COULD GET A BIG MAX 4 DAT MACH WADDA RIP OF."

@Kaboom I think they're like 5 bucks, mang. You mean that awful old NES game, yeah?

Go! Go! Ackman??! That Super Famicom game is KILLER! Thanks for reminding me I still have to pick up the trilogy, NL!

Honestly, it's a two dollar difference... for a SNES golden-era RPG. There's tens of hours to be had here, maybe hundreds if you want to get the most out of it. I will never understand the mindset of the iOS Angry Birds generation of gamers, complaining about paying $8 for Super Mario World.

lol, I love how behind the game Nintendo of America always is. We used to give NoE a run for their money, but nope. So much cool NoE stuff happening, like getting games much earlier than NoA.

I know this isn't a 100% of the time complaint, but still. TnT

@Dambuster Wow. Dude, it's noteworthy news. Definitely something for the community to talk about. Take dem chill pills, bro.

@Prof_Elvin_Gadd @Peek-a-boo Yes, the story was fantastic, the acting was top-notch. That's why I really wish they made a life-sim or summat! But echoing what Gadd said, ABSOLUTELY. I love Nintendo because their gameplay is always guaranteed to be superb! The gameplay was what I was talking about when I was expressing my "been here, done this" mentality while playing.

I just don't get why they're FREAKING OUT!

@Peek-a-boo I played it for five hours or so, and really? Totally bored to tears. It didn't offer anything that I couldn't get from Dead Space, RE5, or Uncharted. Heck, even Enslaved. It's just all stuff that I've seen before. Zombie-ish enemies? Shooter-ish gameplay? Modern day apocalyptic setting? Snore.

At least the graphics were absolutely gorgeous. Based on the opening scene, I thought it would've been rad if they just took that engine and made a life-sim out of it.
