@rjejr the 3ds succeeded not because lack of competion from vita but because it was an attractive product with great software and it was priced competitively if NINTENDO are able to re-create that situation with Wiiu (and both cases are spookily similar) then the consumer wont care about the competition they will only think one thing "should i buy a Wiiu based on the games available and price" they will probably say yes if NINTENDO get it right.
The whole Wiiu has more competition than 3ds angle is inherently flawed look at the 360/PS3 situation they are near identical and they haven't cannabalised each other's sales the vita didn't fail because of 3ds it is failing because it isnt an attractive product to the mass consumer like the PSP was to an extent the DS sold 150mil units and yet the PSP sold a very nice 70mil people by your analogy the PSP would have sold barely anything just because its rival sold a lot more.

@Ryo_Hazuki-san exactly the 3ds succeeded because of one thing 1st party nintendo exclusives 3rd parties haven't realisticly factored into NINTENDO buisness for the last decade and a half, get over it doom mongorers its getting boring now.

Your right about that PINK SPIDER Pikmin 3 looks amazing especially the folliage it looks stunning.

This confirms a holiday release for mario 3d, surely. I mean NINTENDO would hardly display a playable demo of it in the run to the holiday season at a major American retailer just for it not to come out at Christmas or would they?

@GN004Nadleeh the port of Need for Speed is graphicaly superior to its console brethren you are buying into this nonsense i hope you feel foolish, he is only saying this because EA are now officialy it would seem an enemy of NINTENDO all because of ORIGIN.

3D MARIO... 3D MARIO... 3D MARIO...and anybody who disagrees play the "Buoy Base" galaxy from the first galaxy and try not to cry at the end of that totemic lesson in peerless game designs more artistic than ten ico's

p.s and i LOOOOVVVVE! ico

Someone say the word nintendo in that timeless sonic the hedgehog on megadrive jingle "seeggaa"

hype mode activated

@AceTrainerAndy @Bulby you have quite the ego dont ye it sounds like you can control your subscribers somehow just patent your mind control technology that will fill the gap in your wallet. I would have cared if ye didnt come across as a such a greedy baby "no money no nintendo waa waa" you would stop buying great nintendo games because of this, games you stated "you made look fun" whatever that means and im sure your subs can make there own minds up you arent there messiah dude.

@Lin1876 "nothing to do with" are you serious they made the damn games. That would be like if you wrote the script for a tv show and then i pinched it and recited it verbatum on youtube and made money off of it. Some people might watch these lets play videos and might not buy the game because they have seen everything in it dont you think they should make back some of those lost profits and that aint a question they should. Good on em there totally within there rights to do this.

The 3DS mission has succeeded, now time for the WiiU just you all watch its gonna kick serious butt this time next year NINTENDO FTW!!!

Ehhh... yeah so about the EU release of scribblenauts unlimited.

COOOOLLLLL!!!!!!!!!!!!

COOOOLLLLL!!!!!!!!!!!!

@Mqblank your bang on. I think black dragon is overeacting i mean i hate the way ubisoft treated us over the whole rayman legends thing but i am still definitely getting the game. Dont hate the developers and there awesome games just hold a grudge against the publisher and hope they all grow fat and bald

@UnseatingKDawg yeah i forgot about those just making the point that NINTENDO own 1st party.

@moroboshi sorry to burst your bubble but the wiiu has 2GB of RAM 1GB for the OS and 1GB for games

3D mario, Metroid, new super mario bros. Zelda, F-ZERO, paper mario, Starfox, mario and luigi, wii sports, SMASH BROS. Pikmin, Mario party, mario golf, mario tennis, fire emblem, advance wars, luigis mansion, Animal Crossing AND POKEMON!!!!!!! just wanted to remind that nutjob who ridiculously claimed "sony has better first party exclusives than NINTENDO" dude there is no comparison to make SONY would trade places with NINTENDO in a second but NINTENDO wouldnt. Educate yourself before posting aburd crap like that.

Oh and do they take all the giant head-size royal jewels(rupees) into consideration when adding it all up.

How much would TALLON IV cost, Christmas would be awesome in the Phendrana drifts.

WWE isnt the best wrestling promotion in the world therefore C.M PUNK aint the "best in the world" Hiroshi Tanahashi is, just thought i would share
P.S
C.M PUNK aint even the best in WWE Bryan Danielson is.

YYYEEEEESSSSSSS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! BRING.... ON.... THE.... NEWWWWSSSSS!

Im am sooo excited... ye wanna know why because for once activision and there genero-shooter are gonna play second fiddle because thats also when the incredible looking GTA V is having its big coming out party

@WingedFish its already changed PS4 was revealed on SONY's terms at a one off in New York and the nextbox is being revealed at a one off in may NINTENDO leads and others follow nothing new about this.

Were getting there stay the course NINTENDO stay.. the.. course

i cant comment on other peoples posts i can yeah posts but nothing else.

Tomadachi was very well promoted by NINTENDO and one Mr. Iwata wheres cheaptrick to bury him now? hiding with all the other Nostradamus'es i guess.

@Dazza BRILLIANT!!!

Damnit, here we go again western publisher telling western team put multiplayer in COD YEAHHHH!!! now i am worried about this game.

Erm.. the guy's who run NINTENDO's foreign division's are always puppets serving there Japanese masters its always been like this, so this move doesn't really mean much Reggie is at best a spokesperson for NINTENDO always will be he has never had any real power im not criticizing him i agree with this model Iwata and myamoto are the idea guys but arent the best public orator's all Reggie is really for is E3 he is awesome.

@DarkLloyd are you nuts there organization overall is hemorrhageing billions ever year there in it deep dude

Sucks even more living in ireland...

Now its time for intelligent systems to re-launch the advance wars brand just like they did amazingly with this series. Who would have taught that this most hardcore of nintendo series would make the top 3 in the shooter obsessed uk & ireland market, outstanding i bet nintendo plan to re-launch the whole mother series in the west as well the VC launch of earthbound is just the start....

What a bunch of whiners talk about never being happy, for an age and a half it was "we want earthbound.. c'mon ninty make it happen" and then when we get earthbound you are all complaining about something else just be happy for crying out loud the WiiU VC selection will grow in time and we might just get confirmation of GC games at E3 so just... be... patient... this constant whining is getting old.

ZELDA :') that submerging into the wall's mechanic look's amazing thanks nintendo you are collectively "THE MAN"

Now jump mad is jumping madder

Where is that jump mad guy, he likes to twist good news into bad just like the SUN newspaper. Really hope muramassa for vita gets an EU release.

@AugustusOxy bang on dude development costs on AAA ps3 & xbox games this gen were scary (somewhere in the $150mil-$250mil area) imagine how much even the battlefield 4 17min demo cost. The market needs stability not budget expansion's that will sink all but the EA's and ACTIVISION'S of this world

She's fine.... just saying

@opeter nice your a classy gent arent ye. It amazes me how many people on here know more about the games industry than myamoto, a real bunch of einstein's idiot's.

RESPECT... THIS... MAN... PEOPLE...

@misswliu81 yes yes yes yes yes yes yes and a final yyyyeeeeeeess!

@Lionsgate come on dude the 3DS has a boatload of top quality games now. As for me cant wait for it to come out here in ireland when is that again?....

Randy pitchford should stay away from nintendo systems for ever after this debacle. He just bullsh#*ted his way around fans, while putting all sega's cash into borderland's 2

Do it nintendo we might just take to it in ireland it sounds really good

i just played mario 3 for about an hour, amazing game it was the big budget game of its time and it was nearly as innovative as the original super mario bros. ,its not like that for big budget sequels anymore sadly :'-(

imagine they said they were remaking FFVII for wiiu said it was an april fool's joke at the end of the day and then announced on April 2nd that it is really being released, that would be the best double turn EVER anyone with me?

why was the site down?

flip em

cant wait for this ducktales and i have to download mighty switch force too, oh and trine 2 ...eh too.
