@Superryanworld Good point. I do think that many fans are complaining about the VC situation, but they're doing so on a site that Nintendo probably never checks for feedback; I assume they only check here for reviews (but—once again—I could be wrong). I would suggest e-mailing your complaints to Nintendo, but their e-mail support thing isn't very good...
@Superryanworld There are plenty of AAA games coming. Asking for VC games is a pretty big deal; if I remember correctly, they have to convert the screen-size and stuff, and they have to re-assign the controls to fit the WiiU/3DS' controls. But I'm not experienced in this stuff—so don't take my word for it.
Nintendo can't—nor can Microsoft or Sony, for that matter—listen to each and every individual request. Besides, Nintendo doesn't ignore their fans; if that were the case, Lucas wouldn't be returning to Smash, and the Smash ballot wouldn't exist.
@Superryanworld And? A lack of DLC doesn't make a week "Craptacular!" We don't buy a new system to play old games; most classics are available—one way or another—so why complain?
But please tell me something. Months ago—like I said—, he pre-ordered the pack that includes Villager, Dry Bowser, etc.; will we still get Baby Park—which was announced after we pre-ordered the pack?
@Haiassai Well, criticises, then. Either way, the Binding of Isaac's criticism of Christianity and Kid Icarus' simply using Greek & Roman mythology as source material are two completely different situations.
"The Apple Watch is looming upon us, as an expensive and slightly pointless small-smartphone-that's-not-a-phone, but will nevertheless sell about 100 million units in a month because it has an Apple logo."
Instead, stores/companies that sell video-games should hand out sheets of paper—or something of the sort—teaching their consumers (mainly the parents buying for their children) about the various ESRB/PEGI ratings, to let them know what they're getting into (or letting their kids get into).
This is incredibly stupid; the parent should be able to decide wether or not their child can handle it; or watch them as they're playing it, and take it away from them if needed. Some games are M for Mature simply for horror; news flash, not all of us minors are fazed by horror. Teachers should have no say in what their students play, unless said student(s) is their child.
@FaustoM Xenoblade takes place in a huge, consistent (I think) world; whereas Monster Hunter takes place in various smaller levels, which each have many loading points.

Re: The Legend of Zeldo: Lonk's Awakening is an iOS Flappy Bird Clone, and an Abomination
@Ryu_Niiyama Ben isn't a meme, he's a creepypasta—which is completely and utterly different.
Re: The Legend of Zeldo: Lonk's Awakening is an iOS Flappy Bird Clone, and an Abomination
@Sligeach This game is completely free; it doesn't even have ads—meaning they make absolutely no money on this project.
Not only that, but this is based off of an already-circulating meme-of-sorts (Lonk, from Pennsylvania), not the Zelda series itself.
Suing the developer would be both stupid and cold-hearted.
Re: The Legend of Zeldo: Lonk's Awakening is an iOS Flappy Bird Clone, and an Abomination
I get the vibe that the writer isn't aware that Lonk and Zolda are—in fact—already a thing.
Re: Renegade Kid Twice Pitched Silent Hill DS Projects to Konami
@Quorthon I know this is beside the point, but the 3DS could really use some more horror games...

Nice review! I'll be getting this, but it'll probably be after the price shoots up.

Re: Video: Here's Our Own Animal Crossing x Mario Kart 8 Showcase
@DEAD I disagree; Baby Park is one of the best stages, in my opinion.
Re: Video: Here's Our Own Animal Crossing x Mario Kart 8 Showcase
@Giygas_95 50cc is boring on any stage.

@Stu13 Mario Kart DS, Mario Kart 8 DLC, Super Smash Bros. DLC, and Cube Creator.
"Craptacular!"
Nintendo fans ask for too much...
Re: Mario Kart 8 DLC Pack 2 Available to Download Right Now
I (okay, my brother) pre-ordered it months ago.
But please tell me something. Months ago—like I said—, he pre-ordered the pack that includes Villager, Dry Bowser, etc.; will we still get Baby Park—which was announced after we pre-ordered the pack?
Re: Cube Creator 3D Bringing a Minecraft-Style Experience to 3DS This Week in North America
@Chisel You'd eat a Slim-Jim if a steak wasn't available; Minecraft (the steak) isn't on the 3DS, so we'll have to settle with a clone (the Slim-Jim).
Re: Cube Creator 3D Bringing a Minecraft-Style Experience to 3DS This Week in North America

Re: Head Teachers in the UK Issue Warning to Parents on 18-Rated Games Being Played by Children

Re: Review: Xenoblade Chronicles 3D (New Nintendo 3DS)
@adamatsu Games are played best when you take your time.
But I guess you're just talking about Call of Duty, 'cause that's the only frachise I can think of with such a short story mode.
I've never seen someone complain because a game's story mode is too long...
