I'm guessing that the 3DS version of Monster Hunter 4 was released early in order to bridge the gap financially until the completion of the console versions. I'm sure CAPCOM knows that they'd more than profit off a multi-platform release with MH's loyal fanbase.
I didn't realize Wii Fit U would be coming so soon! Does anyone know if a new balance board is in the works? I don't want to purchase one now, just to have to order a new one later on.
it just seems like it would be the common sense thing to do. i think they just care more about what the consumer wants. it's the consumers who drive the market.
This sounds like it's going to be a lot different than Disney Infinity although they are always compared to each other when one ore the other is mentioned.
I wish they would just mesh all these into one game and include online multiplayer! i need more friends to play with. it gets boring playing against the cpu over and over again :/
I'll be moving this weekend so I won't be playing too too much. Looks like I'll mostly be playing Fire Emblem Awakening. I have just put over 100 hours into it and I think I've got more than my money's worth out of it...but it's still going to he hard to put down. Other than that I'll be playing my neglected Wii U games, namely Evil Revelations & Pikmin 3.
I'm much more excited about the upcoming Nintendo games than the others' exclusives as well It's also nice not having to fork over a half grand just to play those games.
@tchaten street fighter is my all time favorite fighting game. i wonder why more fighting games haven't followed this model. i find it much more fun than injustice although it doesn't have the current graphics, of course. you won't regret it
Unfortunately the same has happened to me more than a few times. I've wondered why a lot of the "New" games I purchased from Gamestop didn't have Club Nintendo codes. Good thing this news is out there.
I lik this this idea. It will make it easier to buy games for my nephews and nieces who live quite a distance away. Hopefully a centralised account system is in the works as well!
I'm very happy with this decision. I'm not the biggest COD fan, but I'm glad it will be something more that I'll be able can play online with my nephews and nieces. I'm moving to the other side of the country soon, and video games are one of the very few things in common that we all enjoy.
I wonder if the bundle will include a pre-installed version of windwaker hd as the animal crossing bundle came with the pre-installed new leaf game. i am interested in this bundle although i already own a wii u. unfortunately many of my games are downloaded, so i wouldn't be able to transfer them to another console.
I went ahead and pre-ordered the physical copy today. Being able to play one day in advance is not enough of an incentive to purchase the download version. Maybe if the price were at least 5 or 10 bucks cheaper as well, then I'd consider it going with the download.

Re: Capcom Has No Plans For Street Fighter on Wii U Just Yet
I really hope Street Fighter will come to Wii U one day with online play.
Re: Metroid Prime Trilogy Now Available At GameStop For $84.99
If it's new but sold as used, isn't Gamestop getting all the money instead of a portion going to Nintendo?
Re: Talking Point: What Games Are You Playing This Weekend? - Issue Fifteen
Fire Emblem Awakening, Pikmin 3, and Ducktales Remastered for me
Re: Dungeons & Dragons: Chronicles of Mystara For Wii U "Has Been A Bit of A Nightmare" For The Producer
Guess it's not going to be released
Re: Pokémon X & Y 3DS Bundle Pre-Orders Sell Out Within a Day at Amazon Japan
I still don't understand why they haven't made these types of games for Wii U. This would definitely sell systems, unlike Pokemon Rumble U.

Re: Ubisoft Gives French President François Hollande A Wii U
Support of any kind for the Wii U is great news, so it's nice to know that Ubisoft is still on board even if it's just somewhat.

Re: Nintendo Feels That Working On Smartphones And Tablets Would "Decrease Brand Value"
I love how Nintendo chooses quality gameplay over an easy buck. That's hard to find nowadays with major gaming companies.
Re: Nintendo Download: 1st August (Europe)
Nano Assault Neo is a great game. I wish it were on discount when I got it near the the launch of Wii U.
Re: Activision Committed To Doing 'Everything It Can' To Support Wii U
