Looks like May 29th is shaping up to be one busy day for Nintendo fans. Better bust out the riot gear. =)

I got Pushmo 3DS for reaching Club Nintendo Gold status and was instantly hooked on it! Stretchmo comes at the perfect time now that I've completed all the original puzzles for Pushmo and was tempted to purchase Crashmo.

Interesting but GB Micro fits my GBA needs perfectly.

@Operative That is my fear as well. Going to DLC exclusive rewards would be such a letdown from some of the legendary CN collectibles.

OK, when you read the tweet in context with the video announcement it is kind of funny. The look on Trinen's face is classic.

Of all the amiibos, why Marth?

@UsernamesAreForC There are plenty of Fire Emblem fans and these Amiibos are one of the few merchandise options. Also, Codename STEAM features Amiibo support that unlocks additional playable FE characters.

@ekreig Zelda being the exception.

My wish would be for a new Kid Icarus on WiiU. A new F-Zero partnership with Sega with 3DS cross compatibility would also be cool.

Keep'em coming Nintendo. Naysayers are always about put downs but fans who actually buy your products are happy. I'm still playing Codename STEAM and eagerly await the new Fire Emblem games. Just fix the Amiibo supply and everything will be OK.

Gonna wait for the price to come down. I'm a fan of the series but its certainly not my favorite.

I feel bad for jumping the gun and ordering too early but there really wasn't much of a choice. Given Club Nintendo's past record for physical goods selling out the only safe bet for getting the items you wanted was to order ASAP. As they say: "Hindsight is 20/20." Still sucks though.

Besides Symphony of the Night all of the other Metroid-vania games have been on Nintendo portables. Ignoring Nintendo hardware completely is certainly an oversight.

Yeah, I'm happy with them focusing more on immediate software over vaporware. Toss us a bone or two though Nintendo. It would be nice to see something of what's still to come which you haven't already revealed.

There were a few minor hiccups matching but was otherwise the game performed perfectly. I was a little apprehensive about the motion controls initially but they quickly became second nature. The window of opportunity to use the demo was a little inconvenient but still managed to make it for one of the sessions. Overall I'm definitely counting down the days to launch.

Had a few hick-ups with the demo but otherwise it was awesome!

Did anyone else have sound issues? My monitor doesn't have speakers so normally I rely on the Gamepad for all the sound. Normally that isn't an issue but for the demo I got nothing but silence with the occasional sound clip with someone called out. Sound worked perfectly for the mini-game between rounds though.

Hellz yeah! I was hoping for a more traditional demo to get a feel for the controls first but nothing like just jumping right in.

I just want my Nintendo swag. DLC games are cool but the physical goods are just so much better.

Congrats to anyone in EU with enough stars to get this. You guys definitely got the best 'going away' prize.

I saw this coming but was helpless to do anything about it all the same. Hopefully by the time If comes out Nintendo will have reprinted the FE Amiibos in some fashion so fans can take advantage of the feature.

Given the purported length of the main quest (+100hrs?) I don't think this content is totally out of the question. I'll probably drop down on the DLC but would want to finish the game first.

I'm gonna wait for the 3DS version. I'm on a portable kick right now.

Never liked the 'feel' of the SoR series. I was always more of a Final Fight (original only) player.

I love Streetpass but have no intentions of joining any kind of group. The whole fun of the feature is seeing which new people you come into contact with not the same people all the time. I get the majority of my SP hits from comic/anime conventions where the queue fills up every couple of minutes. The rest of the time I just walk through my local Best Buy and use Play Coins. That's enough for me and my two 3DS'.

Does anyone else miss the days when we just called them mechs?

Hellz yes! Everyone aboard the hype train!

My eyes! The goggles they do nothing!

I'm in Canada and also got the "Fair Enough" message.

I own two 3DS', one N3DS and my original, so while I purchased the Streetpass games for the first I did not for the later.

I'm loving both of the new games but agree that Ultimate Angler is more intriguing than Battleground Z. Something about the level of micro management. Those little rotting smiley faces are so adorable though. =)

@OMC79 Baby steps. =)

Because it actually IS about ethics in journalism.

Meh, I'm too busy trying to unlock stuff for Mewtwo.

In Canada the Thank You pack is $8-something CAN and I own all of the other Streetpass games. I don't even know what the regular price was

Just finished downloading the new Streetpass games and they're both awesome. Just wish I'd saved more of my older Plaza tickets for the newer goodies coming out. Time to earn some more then.

DC was basically an evolution of the Neo Geo's 'arcade at home' concept. To this day there are some great gems which will probably never see publication again. My personal favorite is Tech Romancer which I'm hoping will get another sequel some day.

Too rich for my blood, but then I'm in Canada. The price is unlikely to follow the exact exchange rate and will be more attractive when these come to NA.

I want both the SSB DLC and Streetpass games. Silly poll wouldn't let me vote for both though.

Nice. I should probably get around to finishing the first one then. =)

@manu0 Makes sense. Sucks for the NA employees though.

Kind of messy but at least this way there are options.

The first game was kind of overrated but still enjoyable for the fan service alone. I welcome any sequel which can top that.

Got the physical copy and I'm about 5hrs in now. I didn't play the original so this is a truly new experience for me. I'm really 'feeling it' so far but do have some issues with navigating the menus especially during combat. Its so weird playing a Japanese game inspired by Western RPGs instead of the other way around.

I'd heard a rumour through my local EB staff that the three Splatoon Amiibos would all function identically so you'd only really need one to get the full benefits out of the game. Looks like that was just speculation.

Business analysts are like meteorologists: they're constantly guessing and frequently wrong. Nintendo fans know better.

@Uberchu I'm a collector myself and even I'm hard pressed to say my DS games + system is worth $1000. Doesn't mean the guy isn't scum for robbing a kid but the article does seem a bit fishy.

I never had much problem with the enemy turns but this update works really well. The action returns to normal for Overwatch attacks then speeds back up.

@Dipper723 One can dream but unlikely.

@ShadJV I suspected a Werewolf/Mafia clone as well. Hopefully this doesn't end up the case.

Streetpass is definitely one of my favorite 3DS features so having more games take advantage of it is just awesome. I wish more games would use the coins too.

Of all the companies that release DLC Nintendo is hardly the one I'd single out as problematic. None of the DLC they've released so far is what I'd consider essential and its not like any of their games gets released incomplete.

@sp_initiate-001 I'm all for Simon Belmont to complete the Captain N gang but that failing Bayonetta's a more modern runner-up.

Gotta get those pre-orders in. I am not getting skunked on these ever again.
