Yes! An Arrested Development reference! Was I the only one that caught it? "How many times do I have to tell you? There's always MONEY in the BANANA STAND!"
I showed up 2 and a half hours early an was first in line, so I didn't get those waits you're talking about. They did start sending people away at the start of the event because it was too crowded. After one game they told me to leave. But Tropical Freeze was fun!
Played this one at Best Buy on Wednesday. It's the slickest-looking title on a Nintendo system of all time. Despite being a side scroller, the rotating barrels and gorgeous 3D backgrounds show the Wii U's superiority over 360 and PS3. And it plays better even better than DKCR because of the Mario Bros. 2 throw mechanics. I was really worried, and then I played it. I think we should all calm down a bit.
"We're not saying these PS3 games like The Last of Us or the Uncharted series are realistic — especially not the latter" So it's more realistic for zombies to take over the world than for two guys to kill everyone on an island?
What about GBA games on the VC? That one threw me off big time. It seems like they realized they wanted to put it on the 3DS, but promised they wouldn't, so they went to Wii U. Oh well, I just want Fire Emblem.
Dang. The 3DS eShop one is difficult. 3 games published by Nintendo, Night Sky, and Mutant Mudds? And I can only pick 3? Let the elimination process begin
I bought this game expecting it to be awesome, but I'm kind of disappointed. The controls seem unresponsive, as I often have to double back because I tried to turn but the vector didn't. It also doesn't explain what the timer does. I thought the game was impossible at first. I suppose I'll try playing it again, but it probably doesn't help that I bought night sky and Crashmo at the same time.

Re: Talking Point: Nintendo's Curious Decision to Monetise StreetPass
I don't feel it's fair to complain about free DLC for a paid game or paid DLC for a free game.

After playing DK Tropical Freeze, that is the game I'm most excited for. It's sick. And beautiful.
