I'd say Epic Mickey is indeed one of the best looking games on Wii. Monster Hunter Tri, Conduit 1&2, Mario Galaxy 1&2, Excitebots and Pokemon Battle Revolution are as well.
If they are moving Nightsky to eShop.. Then I think they could do the same for this game. Haven't been following La-Mulana though. Sucks for those who were looking forward to it.
@HeroOfWaffles I think when they showed the back to the controller, it had some "screws" on the battery cover. I believe it has a built in battery for sure.... Be a big shame if we had to buy Double As x_x
Actually, we have seen plenty of new characters by Nintendo. Trace Memory, Chibi Robo, Disaster, Captain Rainbow, Glory of Heracles.. Starfy, Pushmo's Mallow, Dillon, Sakura Samurai, new FE characters. Then, we have some Japan exclusive characters by Nintendo.. Nintendo has been producing new IPs all the time. Of the big 3, Microsoft hasn't been bringing anything new.
It's not even a persoonal opinion. It's a well known fact.
And I acknowledge what you explicitly said, no need to reiterate.
And I think people like you need to look at the bigger broader picture and realistically see how bad it can be to their business at this point. No sugar coating needed.
My stance is this: If you want to play Playstation games, buy a Playstation. If you want to play Nintendo games, buy a Nintendo system. If you want to play Xbox games, buy an Xbox. Most of the people (from what I see) are people just complaining about not wanting to buy another platform to play games they want to play (which I find ridiculous and any gamer should know the differences between 1st party and 3rd party).
It wouldn't be smart. They have the 3DS to take care of. The last thing they need is anything cannibalizing their platforms. A little "fling" with the smartphones would be ok. But to make a total shift- outrageous. Not only that, the phones these days just plain suck. They're not reliable as a phone should be, battery life plays a key role as well as the fact most phones are rushed to market just to compete with "the latest technology" when really, they need to get back to making phones dependent. I'm tired of thinking "Hm, I wonder if my phone is going to hang up or crash today".
I only have 3 games on my smartphone. Honestly, as big of a gamer I am and how I'm open to any gaming platform, gaming on a smartphone, for me, isn't ideal.
You know, Sony should make LBP, Modnation Racers and Uncharted for 3DS. Sony needs to get used to the change and realize Vita just isn't doing it. And Microsoft should make games for PS3- just because.
By the time Smash Bros. 3DS comes out, the feature would be implemented. And it may be the first game I'll get as a downloadable title. Want to have that (and Animal Crossing) with me everywhere.
I feel like NSMB2 may be the first game to be downloadable as well as FE: Awakening.. E3 may shine light on this...
You know, I loved Pilotwings Resort. It's a great game. Also enjoyed PW64. Never played the original. I hope a sequel to PWR comes along with online play- flying around the island with friends and taken on challenges would be sooo fun...
@Oddy Super Meat Boy, Bit Trip and Splosion Man have their own mini games. There's also references to pop culture- even classic NES titles like Dr. MARIO, Megaman 2, TMNT, DuckTales.. It goes on.
@Ulala I know that line.. Except, "Update" would be "Rescue".
Anyhow, nice to see folders in the mix. Now my menu will be a lot cleaner. If only we could have different colored folders though. But this is good enough. All about functionality anyhow.
The "New" Super Mario Bros. series is essentially just Mario in modern day. If you noticed, you can wall jump, triple jump and even ground pound which were not in the past Super Mario Bros. games. That's how I always looked at it because it makes sense.
Never heard of them anyhow. Shame they are salty about it. Especially when eShop has made major improvements in regards to Nintendo's download platform that puts the Wii Shop to shame. Their loss if they want to be bitter and want people to miss out on their games.
Someone did a full dissection recently of the WiiU's specs from what we know so far such as the Graphics Card it's using and the Power7 CPU.
Turns out.. WiiU indeed surpasses this gen after all.
This is what happens if you go out and piece things together, and not just go by rumors. Of course, I'll still wait for Nintendo for the official numbers just to really shut the haters up.
All I really care about is the possibilities in gameplay the WiiU will be bringing to the table.
Ridiculous. In the words of Judge Judy, "If it doesn't make sense then its not true."
Contradictions and inconsistencies abound. Funny how devs who came forward about WiiU being more powerful than the current gen have been named but the ones that say otherwise choose not to...? Either they are stuck on older dev kits or this report is complete fabrication.
Balogna. I have YET to see a free games is actually free. Lots of these games use microtransactions and ads. Angry Birds is only free on Android and Chrome. And there isn't anything premium qbout these games that stands out either. I rather pay to support the devs anyhow.

Re: Iwata Defends Identical Digital and Retail Prices
Of course people will attack Nintendo on this. There are those who don't realize it's the same case for PSN and even (omg I'm going there), Steam.
Argue about Steam sales- at the end of the day, when a new game comes out and also comes out on Steam, it's the same identical price.
Re: Warren Spector Believes Epic Mickey is 'The Best Looking Wii Game Ever'
I'd say Epic Mickey is indeed one of the best looking games on Wii. Monster Hunter Tri, Conduit 1&2, Mario Galaxy 1&2, Excitebots and Pokemon Battle Revolution are as well.
Re: Oster Lays Out WiiWare Criticisms
Hope this isn't the same case with eShop.
Shouldn't be, with the praise as well as quality titles on the store.
Re: Nintendo Download: 3rd May 2012 (Europe)
I loved G&WG2!!
Bring on the 3rd one too please!!!
Re: La-Mulana Canned for North America, Europe
If they are moving Nightsky to eShop.. Then I think they could do the same for this game. Haven't been following La-Mulana though. Sucks for those who were looking forward to it.
Re: Sonic & All-Stars Racing Transformed Hits 3DS
Looking forward to this. Hope Ulala and Billy Hatcher are still in.

Re: Analyst Calls for Mario on Non-Nintendo Platforms
I see it as both, actually. I know myself more than anyone else, thanks. I'm more of an orange than an apple, though. I prefer it.
You can be an apple :3

Re: Europe, Your 3DS System Update Arrives 25th April

Someone needs to record it!
Re: Kirby Gets 20th Anniversary Compilation for Wii

Re: Organise Your Home Menu With New 3DS Update

Think of it this way:

Re: Mario Kart 7 To Get Shortcut-Fixing Patch
Haha, I knew it would happen eventually! So glad it's being patched up! Now we can race happily ever after on Maka Wuhu!
Re: Inchworm Animation Reaches Europe Next Week
