Happy to see SMM on 3DS, although with concern if it is step down version of Wii U.

Mario Sports Superstar looks pretty good.

Ever Oasis caught my interest.

Pikmin side-scrolling spin-off looks pretty awesome.

Happy to see the RPGs featured. Overall a pretty good direct.

This is possibly the best move Nintendo has done in recent memories. A game that is addicting enough, but don't offer the same experience as the main Pokémon game. This spark interest for the main game, instead of cannibalize it. And it's money maker too. We could only think that Animal Crossing and Fire Emblem mobile games has similar strategy, but don't think they could replicate similar success, especially Fire Emblem.

Wow, that is bad... Might still buy it at discounted price though...

To be honest, aside of other small announcement, Zelda is the only big news Nintendo has over the E3. With multiple news of Zelda over the day, I think that is natural it got the most mentions. Still looked awesome though.

Well, with Miitomo getting stale and declining, I don't think Nintendo or DeNA could counter-act this fast enough. Unless they have new, fun features, it will keep declining IMO.

As it stands, Miitomo is too slow and useless as social app, too boring as a game. I understand that Nintendo wanted to keep kid-friendly nature for Miitomo, but only able to make friends face-to-face/connected to other social is a bummer. Part of what make social network fun is how we could interact with new people. We could befriend friends of our friend, but that is also a bit too restrictive. Anyway, they should benefit from endorsing celebrity/public figure and allow us to follow and visit them/visit our room.

One hope is how it could integrate with the new mobile games and NX in future. This could make or break Miitomo. But really, they need to fix Miitomo if they wanted it to be the hub that connect all. Make it lighter, faster and not as fancy. Allow us to connect with Nintendo gamer friend, having chatroom and group chatroom, with Miitomo figure talking to each other.

As unfortunate as it is, I think Nintendo would follow this step in maybe-not-so-far future. Mobile isn't the future for traditional game company, any mobile games featured their iconic character will always felt like a step down from their console game. And these games could break developers priority and harm their console game development, lose-lose situation. I hope I'm wrong though.

This is really well done! The recording quality need some work, but their voice acting is really awesome.

Some racing love for 3DS? Count me in

I just wished the series stay exclusive with Nintendo hardware.

Loved the animation teaser!

Still have about half of my 64GB free, I guess I'll get this one digitally. But man... I think I'll never finish the MH3U and MH4U at this rate.

Well, the app is toooooo heavy, too much loading, it's very frustating to use as a social app. Which explain the average 8 mins usage very well, it drains the battery a lot. There isn't much to do in Miitomo right now, although the incentive of reward give me motivation to login everyday, answering 3 question, change clothes and sometime listening to 10 answer from my friends.

As it is, Miitomo fails as social app and fails as a game. I don't think anyone without Nintendo console would use it.

That said, I've already spent $20 for Miitomo coins because I wanted a costume (I never expected myself to spend any money, but here it is). I quite enjoy dressing my Mii, so I hope they will expand further on that. For example, give me a Fire Emblem costume and I'll be all over it!

Now this definitely up into my want list. I feel the game a bit too "girly", but why should I care as long as it's fun.

I'll be amazed if you guys collaborate with someone who could create realistic food/cake. That said, nice joke esp with a lot of salt.

Yay! Happy to see it on Crunchyroll. Will watch it later today. Though... I don't know if I could get used to the Japanese names, and if I did, I will have to get used to the west name back whenever AA6 came. >.<"

So no love for physical game purchase like old club nintendo?

I have no friends in Facebook that play Miitomo... my poor lonely mii.

Man, that was amazing.

Pleasing result for me. Glad to see Liberation Maiden up there in honorable mentions, nice little game that is very addicting. A little disappointed that Kid Icarus Uprising didn't make the cut into top 10 (it's at least top 5 for me), but at least in honorable mentions. Happy to see both Fire Emblem are high on the list, and ALBW might be my most favorite Zelda ever (I just prefer 2D Zelda). Also Ace Attorney Trilogy on top!

Regardless, every single entry in this list is all awesome!

A for the effort! Awesome stuff.

Haha... I would say they are pretty good at rendering that!

Add D-pad, physical buttons, and a hand grip. I think I'll be pretty excited by that.

Done. That just reminds me that I have so many games I haven't even touch. Man... wonder when I could finish them all.

DS downloads on 3DS will be really nice to have!

Man... I thought this game was localized for a second. Great review though.

Pleased to hear this After the failure of Code Name STEAM, this is a welcome success for Intelligent System and for Fire Emblem franchise in general.

That looks really nice, hope it got localized.

@liveswired 3d classic is ported, they are like remaster in that sense. SNES VC is straight emulation. Surely you know the differences. Saying 3DS can run mega drive 3d classic in full speed is like saying 3DS can run N64 VC just because we have Ocarina of Time 3D.

Emulation is an expensive process, surely old 3DS wasn't capable of running this smoothly, otherwise, it doesn't make sense for Nintendo to not release for old 3DS, they will have more money with larger user base.

Sure, they wanted to push N3DS sales, but Nintendo didn't really do N3DS exclusive strategy for pushing it. Since N3DS existence, only Xenoblade Chronicle is exclusive and we know it required more power, same as Unity games that isn't supported on old 3DS.

I just wish they will be more open and release GBA VC, end the Ambassador exclusive.

Tempted, thanks for the great review. Added to my wishlist.

Oh, if Nintendo decide to localize SNES Fire Emblem... that will be freaking awesome!

Woah, this is soooo adorable! I wanted to have this in my house... well, when I got into a bigger house.

Pleased to see this! And damn, I haven't finished either MH3U and MH4U, but I'll keep buying MH game. I wonder why the need to change the name to Generations, MHX should work just fine in the west.

It just so sad to see how the producer need to try and convince us that the game is his vision, he wanted to work on it and assure us of the quality, with awesome partner like Next Level Games even. Yet, the game seems to be doomed on arrival.

Honestly, I think rather than addressing the concern, Nintendo should just polish the game, to the point that it's too good to pass. While it looks fun, the recent trailer didn't convince me much yet.

I'm just pleased to see SNES VC finally here! And come on Nintendo, GBA VC also please! My N3DSXL FE edition will arrive tomorrow, so it's a very good time for me.

It feels like a crime not to grab that Rayman games for $7.5, but I'm currently broke from all Fire Emblem Fates stuff.

I'm not sure about Mario movie, Zelda might not work as well as Link is usually silent, Starfox is too awkward for movie I guess. However, I can see Metroid movie can be decent, Fire Emblem epic story can work too, Kid Icarus anime movie will be awesome, and Splatoon of course, will be awesome too!

I agree that Nintendo need to expand to movie or other media a bit more, Pokemon success is the best example.

Pleased to hear this! Well deserved. I'm lucky enough to secure the special edition and I'm having a blast! Also got a digital version, so they had 2 sales from me. Now looking at N3DS XL FE Fates edition.

Hmm... Might pick up Legend of Legacy, but next week Fire Emblem Fates will be a huge spending (I might double dip with digital and physical, along with the N3DS XL)... decision... decision...

So there was a Wii U shortage... I was surprised for a moment there. Hopefully it'll bounce back soon.

Wow, beautiful pieces. Will definitely look more of his work.

Looks like the web development team has been working hard! As a fellow web developer, I know how hard and challenging it is to do a huge redesign like this. Congrats!

That's... so cute! Want! Actually, Luka version and I'll throw all my money away!

Well, good to know. Still a bummer though, but I guess the game couldn't pass T rating if they included this, sooo... at the end of the day, I'll prefer Fire Emblem selling better by approaching wider audience. Dual audio is something I wished they kept though, I played Awakening twice, once with Japanese and the other with English, and I loved the different experience with both.

It's been a while since Wii U drop to 4 digits. While some games obviously will bring Wii U back to 5 digits for a week or two, I'm not sure if they will have another driving force like Splatoon again.

Yay, Tri Force Heroes surpass 1 million. Great to see those 1 million+ sales games.

I would love myself some investigation game other than Ace Attorney and Layton. Come to west Detective Pikachu! Oh, the custom Amiibo looks really cool too.

Sounds like an inevitable fall will happen after the financial result.

No, Link, please do not talk. Agree that the other character should have a voice acting though.
