Ew, gray. No thanks.

Well, Ubisoft asked me to wait a while for our version of Watch Dogs to come out, so I guess I'll just wait a while til the price is low and nice, like I did with Rayman Legends. I could care less about Ubisoft at the moment.

Cup DLC is a really bad idea, trust me. At least, new retro courses. If they do that, Nintendo will have less tracks to work with in their next games.

I wish they would've done actual battle arenas... Now DLC for that is out of the question. Unless they want to piss people off.

I really want character DLC, though; this game is oversaturated with babies, koopalings, and metal clones. And challenge levels with odd objectives like in Wii would be interesting.

@Silent They DIDN'T say it was a bad game, though. I don't see where everyone is getting this from. This is Digital Foundry, they are supposed to properly analyze the graphical workings of a game. The fact that they stated that it drops to 59 fps isn't a stab at Nintendo, it's their job. You guys are ridiculous.

Knew it. I knew it.

@KnightRider666 Yeah, definitely, I'm not judging you for wanting it physical, it's just going to isolate some gamers from purchasing it, therefore losing potential sales.

@KnightRider666 Well some of us would rather have it digitally. Shame it's published by Activision, they're known for being unaware of the eShop. There's honestly no chance to see it on there.

Um. I don't play Mario Kart to represent myself. But if it's that much of an issue, why don't you just play as a Mii?

I really doubt NFC figures will move units. Mainly because NIntendo is being stupid about this. The appeal of Skylanders and Disney Infinity is the sandbox charm the games give off, in which you can customize your own character and send them off on your own adventure. Kids nowadays are moving on from Legos to videogames, as they enjoy the freedom to build their own characters and adventures, and these titles give them the chance to do exactly that. They have already stated that the NFC figures will unlock features and save/load information across various /already existing/ game titles. I feel that the fact that it is a feature locked to various games instead of a singular one is a big turn off, as unlike Skylanders and Disney Infinity where you have to buy a single piece of software, and branch off from there, you have to buy a Wii U, and then several figurines, only to need to buy three different games to use them all to their full advantage, not to mention what you can do to them is locked to the specific game, so whether or not certain figurines will appeal to children isn't certain. Again, children like the freedom these already existing NFC toys bring in to their game world, if they are restricted to simply moving their save files over to another Wii U through a figurine, or getting a new powerup, or more levels, I can't really see it catching too much attention. I mean, there's a CHANCE people will fall into it, but it just seems like it's going to be a really big investment to have fun with the figurines, as well as less interesting than Skylanders and DIsney Infinity, and I don't think that will be very appealing to any audience. That's just me, though. Let's hope for the best.

@AshFoxX Lobodestroyo sounds like what you're looking for. Armillo is still going to be awesome, though.

Fun fact, this guy was a graphic designer for Minecraft. Might still be. Not sure.

Now I want to buy an extra before the new iteration...

@BakaKnight You know what else was just a tech demo turned into a game? Ocarina of Time 3D.

@Kodeen Well that's the thing, it's built from old parts. I figured using parts from a piece of hardware you did not build yourself could be considered illegal. Also, just because "people do it all the time" does not make it legal.

Yeah I was thinking I'd rather see the genesis ports on there than the inferior snes ports with removed blood...

...is this legal?

@bizcuthammer The thing is, they were working on it looong before Kickstarter, as a 3DS exclusive. They wanted a console release, so they started a Kickstarter to see if they could get the money. Not to mention they said they're "discussing other options". Not even in a different form, I'm sure we'll see it one day.

How do you guys feel knowing you purchased the only digital copy this game is going to sell for this review? That's 10 bucks down the drain.

@WebHead I'm pretty sure it's just on put on hiatus for now.

Phil Fish is no longer a game developer you guys can stop mentioning him now.

@Spakiness Because golf is boring. And not to mention, the most pointless sport in the universe.

...Yeah, actually. I'm going to wait this one out. Kind of interested in this game.

I can't believe people would rather be playing Golf than Kirby.

I'd say Disney gets the Ninty brownie points here, for potentially pushing Wii owners to upgrade to a Wii U.

DSi version was too... basic for me. Hehe. I'll definitely be picking this version up, whenever we get it...

@ferrers405 PS Plus isn't free.

@Cathousemaster Please consider lowering the difficulty! It took me about 30 minutes to get 5 stars on the first level on easy, after an endless struggle on normal, mind you. Either lower the score threshold or increase point values in game modes pleaaaase. It'd be really appreciated.

@Ninhau Blast Corps is owned by Rare.

@Nintenjoe64 lol, gaming elite. More like hipsters. We're so picky. Indie games just resonate with us better.

@Noboty Please be joking.

It's beautiful. This is the kind of stuff that made me want a game as a kid. I still remember the Kirby 64 commercial, that was awesome...

I really hope this pushes sales for the game.

@Maelstrom It works, though. Your TV is off while you play only on your Gamepad. TV-Off mode.

@PvtOttobot Hey don't diss Wii Sports. It's fun for like an hour.

Anyone have details on the Rare logo in Tropical Freeze? Haven't heard of that one before...

@Philip_J_Reed I think cartoony art just isn't this developer's strong point.

I'm really insulted by people who are saying Armillo looks like a flash game when there's stuff like this hitting the eShop. Goodness.

what is a fansa2?

@MAB Is this sarcasm? Are we just making fun of this constant barrage of articles on this site staring down at Nintendo's sales at this point? I really hope so, because if these kind of posts are just inside jokes I'll gladly loosen up.

@midnafanboy Oh chill out, it's not about lasting long, Nintendo would never drop a main home console like that. The Gamecube didn't do so hot, either, and it made it til the end of it's generation.

@BertoFlyingFox you might need a y cable for those flash drives that might do the trick.

@Nintendude789 what in the world did you do that earned you a permanent ban?

Good on them.

@ricklongo If something optional like the Superguide is the deciding factor of whether or not you're going to enjoy a game, then your opinion is questionable. It's nice to have that kind of thing around for people that didn't grow up with platformers like us, or just never got good at it. Mainly because it doesn't skip the entire level, it shows a CPU walking through it, in case somebody is genuinely stuck and needs a reference point. Also, it doesn't mark the level as finished when you use it, so there's that.

...I guess it wouldn't hurt to put small things like Yoshi's Cookie, Dr Mario on smartphones. Not even full blown ports of old games, just traces of their IP for some advertisement, focused around the medium, of course. Heck, even endless runners would work.

Why does this game look better than City Undercover lol

@noctowl ...why are you upset that Wii U was higher priority than PS4 and Xbox One? They weren't calling it a last gen console, it is just a different machine than it's competition, more similar to the last generation of game consoles, therefore making it more convenient to develop it's port alongside the ports for those consoles. We had a better chance at getting it from the start, you have NO reason to be upset. Would you rather have had it up higher on the list? You really aren't making a bit of sense, and you are a perfect example of awful Nintendo fans and the reason why I will not be surprised if third party developers stop making games for us.

At least they're trying. All we can do is dream, really.

@MuchoMochi It's a continuation. The babies were delivered to the wrong parents at the end of Yoshi's Island, and as the stork goes to find their real parents, Luigi gets stolen by Kamek again, and Mario falls onto a new floating island shaped like an egg, or something.

@CrazyOtto '10s kids, technically.

Aw man, US release, please. I want to get this for my little brother.
