My kid saw this and asked me to get BK tonight. I obliged and he ended up with a Croods toy because they didn’t have any Nintendo ones and had absolutely no idea what I was talking about when I asked.
@Agent721 He's not really Little Mac in the arcade. The only reason he had to be little was because the NES couldn't render the wireframe of the player like the arcade could and they needed a way for you to see the other boxer, so they made him tiny.
I love both systems but I saw first hand the other day why the Wii U was failing so badly. Nintendo did a piss poor job of differentiating it from the original system. A mother was in Target with her little kids looking for a birthday present for another kid. She wanted to get them a "Wii game" so she starts browsing the blue Wii U games. After a while one of the kids goes "mom, those aren't Wii games, those are Wii U games!" The mom's response was "what's the difference?"

Re: Poll: What Did You Think of Nintendo's E3 Digital Event?
Nintendo completely crapped the bed this year. Not sure what they were thinking. This was their worst E3 since the Wii Music fiasco.
Re: Target Won't Be Restocking Rosalina amiibo, Selected Wave 3 Figures Won't Be Available In-Store

Re: Report Suggests That June Could Be Crucial For Iwata's Future At The Head Of Nintendo
He's had his run but it's time for him to go. Nintendo needs someone that will allow it to evolve. Pokemon pun intended.
