@PowerStar I thought this was to show off the catching and not tell everything about it... What made you think there was no battling?

@memoryman3 Yes I know. But that doesn't mean I don't want other Mario characters.

With Nintendo, physical is always better if you can get it physical, then it is not tied to a single system with an ID that is incredible frustrating to move around.

I cannot wait to read the whining from people about how they "lost internet" and that Nintendo is being too harsh. lol

@1upGoomba

Get a more stable signal, even if it means hard wiring. Yes, you can argue that it still may go out but seriously, think about how often that happens. The last time I lost internet was during a storm and same for the time before that. Aside from storms, I cannot think when the last time it happened. So if I was playing and I didn't want to risk it, then I'd avoid the times where this is more likely to happen.

Wait... is my Nintendo for digital purchases only?

I wish they'd give us the Mario characters before these....

If he REALLY wants to connect us, give us a proper account system.

@abbyhitter That's the first one where I saw it used (many of those that used it are banned now. lol)

Ha ha. That makes me laugh so much that you mentioned that. Though I guess I should have explained it betterr because I never meant to include the urban dictionary in those "two."

This is now the second website I have only ever seen the word "Rekt." (aside from the urban dictionary)

Nothing for me. 100% of the vote is at nothing. lol (I'm the only current vote atm )

That moment when you look at a list for discounts and such and you have everything decent... lol

Though, it is kind of annoying how everything is digital games. Buy the good game to earn points for the good games you already bought. That's what usually annoyed me with the Club Nintendo digital download. I guess I was hoping for some physical rewards as well because I loved the figures and such.

But, at least there is other way to getting point as well so that kind of makes up for it.

Daww!!!!! This makes me so happy

@Kuhang Developers can only do what the Hardware will allow them. Yeah it sucks that they could only get like 20ish fps but regardless what they did, they would have gotten hell from Nintendo fans because it was either delay the game to the next Nintendo system and hope Nintendo actually puts some power in it or totally strip the game down to be able to run or just have it run like crap. Either way, Nintendo fans would have trashed them.

@FragRed The hardware being too weak to handle it was a poor excuse? If anything, project cars should have been an eye opener to the people defending the Wii U's power/potential

Lol, seeing all these games released in such a short window makes me wonder how long this guy really spends making them. Seriously.. how long does he spend making this shovelware?

Gaming will remain the same with these fads like VR coming. The only time I see gaming truly changing is when you have holodecks. lol

@DrkBndr Then it is because the Wii U is just not being produced much. Like come on, they cannot produce it to the point to keep up with it's usually 7k-8k consoles a week? If there truly are shortages, then it is because the manufacturing has slowed horribly.

I doubt that there is really much of a Wii u shortage and really, this is just what the sales are. shortages from a non selling console don't really happen, at least not for very long.

@Zyrac yeah, not sure. I've had two levels removed and no trouble re-uploading them. Unless there was some new policy since I re-uploaded mine since it was a few months ago since it happened. I should probably check to see if there has been new deletions. Part of me wonders if this is more a scheduled thing for the system to scan that fit a certain thing and then removes them and this one got unlucky. If that is the case then it does need to be adjusted.

my levels that were deleted were the ones with the lowest playthroughs... the non explanation ones are probably more due to inactivity. You can still easily re-upload them with the click of a button. Though i still have yet to experience one to be removed after an hour. If it was removed and not able to be uploaded again, it probably broke the rules... though the one that is in the video, not sure.

I forgot this game existed.

I'm sorry but the point of trailers are to judge a game and hopefully build up hype. If they don't want a game to be judged, they should never release a trailer.

However, for this, I don't think it is too early, we saw the combat, we know it is basically generic toads everywhere. There doesn't seem to be a partner and it is a card based system, similar to Sticker Star. That is enough to make me never want to buy. I'll still watch but I am not optimistic.

Mine was Paper Mario but Nintendo took a dump on it and is continuing to do so.... so I am going to go with.. yeah, mario kart.

Why do I have the feeling that this will be a gimmicky failure if implemented?

@Thumbsofsteel Well, to be honest, I wouldn't mind. Really, it would be sad to see Nintendo's biggest Zelda game fail because of a failed console.

We should expect something "new"... like a new console along side with it? lol

Where is our VC titles? Oh wait, because NoA

@PtM

You guys had Club Nintendo going for months well after the NA one disappear along with restocks of items and digital titles. I'd take that over a piece of software you use 1 to 5 times in your lifespan.

@Einherjar

So you're going to defend laziness? That's pretty sad. over all, Nintendo themselves has hardly anything coming for both systems. The least they could do it put a small bit of extra work to optimize something.

@Deadstanley It's more the fact that we understand how hardware works. The fact that they say the performance is bad just shows laziness and that they want to do minimal.

I'm calling BS damage control, the CPU runs laps around the SNES one. Sure the 3DS runs more in the background but there are ways to still optimize this.

How will i spend it? Like the average person and working.

I really hope this does not just turn into yet another HD remake of an old game.

@MyLegGuy The hardware specs on the original 3DS are more than enough to handle it. All you need it the proper emulator to optimize it.

@scamander
Not even the emulators on the Wii U play it perfectly, it is all how you optimize the emulator. Everything on the 3DS surpassed the SNES hardware. If it could work then, it could work on this.

This is getting to the point of beyond embarrassing now. First Nintendo makes it so only the New 3DS can play SNES games even though the original 3D can handle it no problem and then they make it so you still have to pay full price for it... yet again.

@bobbypaycheque You are STILL Wrong. New games are NOT more than $70 other than the ones I already specified for obvious reasons. Seriously, get off your arse and go to the store and look for yourself. I am not even going to bother reading the rest of your wall of text because you're too stupid to do simple research.

It did and it didn't. I tend to really care most about the Wii U and there wasn't really a whole lot and the direct seemed more 3DS heavy. It did however spark my interest back up for Star Fox. The Mario Maker update seemed nice as well and I look forward to that.

The biggest let down though was when I saw Paper Mario. I really hope it does not turn out to be similar to Sticker Star. I was quite excited when I saw it and then it kept on going and I just though "Oh no, Miyamoto is still there with it." Even more so when I looked at the Japanese trailer and saw coins only at the end of a battle and no exp and I knew it was probably going to be Sticker Star all over. So I probably won't be buying. I'll still keep my eye on it just in case they do change the direction more back to what Paper Mario used to be but I have my doubts. The other let down was the fact that to get the 3DS content of Hyrule Warriors, you need to buy an inferior version of the same game you already own. Really stupid move nintendo.

For the 3DS, it was really only Bravely Default so I will eagerly look at the demo and then the SNES games on the VC until... it said new 3DS only and I laughed because it was a joke. the original 3DS is more than capable of emulating SNES games and this is just Nintendo trying to make the New 3DS more appealing with little work.

@SanderEvers I guess if you are using it to break records and such. Hopefully it will be done with a report system and a real person looks at it though and not a robot that will jut ban people who use or stumble upon a glitch for fun use.

Nintendo being Nintendo. Glitches can be fun. Nintendo is taking fun out of this game.

@TruenoGT the 3ds hardware can handle snes roms without trouble. Not sure about PSP but snes, yes.

This far done yet they could not give any details in the failure of a direct?

@TruenoGT not sure how garage you computer is but the snes games I have played through retro achievements' emulator, the have all run perfectly. It is usually a controller issue more than anything. The 3DS is more than capable of running snes games. Nintendo doing this is them just trying to get people to upgrade the lazy way without putting actual effort into it.

So... We have Paper Mario... is that releasing before the Fall? If not, what justification does Nintendo have to not talk about Zelda U? Unless is really is not for just the Wii U... I guess the direct "focused" on Spring and Summer releases which could potentially mean a few things may not be in that window.

As for Paper Mario as a whole, I was genuinely getting a excited for it... until the trailer kept going and then left me concerned wondering if Miyamoto will ruin this one as well and take it down the same road as Sticker Star. I was really hoping to see a Paper Mario game that went back to the roots of what Paper Mario once was. There is a reason why only a small handful of people will call Super Paper Mario their favourite and even fewer for Sticker Star.

With Hyrule Warriors, it did kind of sadden me that the only way to get the 3DS Characters on the Wii U is to buy an inferior game that is the same as the Wii u one for the most part. At least they gave a free character though in the end but it is still disappoint that they went that route with the 3DS characters.

Though, this direct did get me looking in the Star Fox again and if the reviews and stuff looks good, I may go and pick it up.

is it also odd to be interested in the Mario and Sonic game? ha ha. I never cared for the Sochi one bought but this one seemed to actually have a bit more to it though, it will definitely not be a day one buy.

@bobbypaycheque When was the last time you bought or even look at the price of Wii U games??? There are no games that are $79.99 alone. The only ones are Rodea - The Sky Soldier and that includes two games and then AC: Amiibo Festival which included 2 amiibo and some amiibo cards. In the US, the game and amiibo cost the same as a full price game release, Canada, it is an extra $10. Go to your local EBgames, Walmart, whatever and actually look at the prices. Maybe it'll open your eyes a little since you'll see what games actually cost as they range from $64.99 to $69.99.

And judging the graphics... I personally don't care how much they made them better. my whole point was does making them slightly better justify the price tag for something that took far less work to do. They didn't take everything and remodel them from scratch. All they did was pretty much upscale with a few tweaks. Something you see modders do on PC games within a matter of days to weeks of a games release.

Also, for Windwaker. I payed $50 CAD for the game and the statue. At the time, games were $65 CAD regular price. That's a $15 discount.

As for "people not having the same mind as me," sure, if you want to look at it that way. I guess I tend to look at things as the work actually done which kind of surprises me sometimes. Don't you find it odd that a game that takes 2-5 years to develop, manufacture and release will cost you $70 CAD while this game that took a few months with not overly a whole lot added costs $80 with the amiibo? The fact that less time and less work is needed with remasters, that is usually why they are cheaper in most cases.

This trailer started to get me so excited... and then i saw the elements from Sticker Star coming and thought... "oh no, Miyamoto is ruining this one too."

@Stu13 I doubt there will be one. If there was none for the Wii U, why would you expect one for the 3DS? The biggest reason why there was one for the 3DS was more due to the fact that it had a massive price cut very early into it's life which upset a lot of early adopters.

After their first direct, I'm not expecting much, a few small things that we didn't know and then everything we already do, some delays and so forth.

@Stu13

Why a new one? What is wrong with the old one?

Monster Hunter was never a series I really got into. I bought 3 for the Wii U when it was cheap and then tried the demo off 4 but just could never get into it.

People wishing for Zelda, at most, you'll see Twilight Princess, nothing for Zelda U except a possible teaser of nothing since it does say "Summer" for the games it is talking about.

I got 2 so far, gotta find my copy of Y to get my 3rd.

@TheLastLugia

Because that announcement was a waste of time, showed hardly anything to get excited for and people blew it up way more than it should have been. They could have done so much more but didn't and it really pretty much felt that they don't care what the directs really are. It almost felt like they are just doing it because of people whining for them to do one so they just slap anything in a video and call it a direct.
