I got it and also the 4 champions Amiibos from BOFW also give you glider cloth distint to each of them. I was disapointed though that when you scan the Wolf Amiibo you don't get a companion again, just a bunch of meat.
To me this just seems like yet another version of the Amiibo, Infinity, Skylander Toys to life thing. Fun at first and money draining, but will ultimately end up in the back of a cupboard.
Yeah I remember years ago when one of the Mario game reintroduced the Tanouki suit PETA put out a thing about Mario being evil because he killed one and wore it. Stupid PETA.
I'm curious what the difference between this and the the art book that came with the special edition of the game. That was pretty big and though in itself. Is this one better?
I can't see how they can claim that their supporting the Switch when they release Disney Afternoon and the Megaman Collection 2 on every system except Nintendo. Which is ironic since those games were Nintendo exclusives originally.
I went to a Switch tour in LA, Arms is really, really fun, Splatoon 2 is basically the same game as 1 except for a couple of small additions which disappointed me since I like Splatoon. I'm getting Arms and skipping Splatoon 2.
I have to say, I'm disappointed, usually they have mostly unreleased games at their Comic-Con event, this time its mostly stuff that's already out. Why are we not getting Breath of the Wild, or Paper Mario, or Sun & Moon or other games coming out this year? I was really looking forward to getting a chance to play the new Zelda game.
At least there's the Sonic and Metroid games which is better then nothing.
I'm going to be playing the 3 Fire Emblem games and DLC for the rest of the year so with that and Kirby I'm good. I just wish they would go back to releasing Retro games on the 3DS like Nintendo 8 bit, 3D Sega along with Master System games like the Alex Kidds, Wonderboys and others. Im not happy that the 3DS shop got left behind for Wii U and New 3DS retro.
Frankly I didn't have a problem with E3, since I'm still playing though about 6 games, just got Lego Jurrasic World and am about to get (I'm hoping) Splatoon and Mario Party for Fathers day. With Lego getting into the toys to life world that's 3 of those to get this fall, plus Lego Avengers, Xenoblade, Sonic Boom Fire and Ice, Mario Maker and possibly Triforce. I'm actually releaved there's not more to buy. Plus I give them a pass since they had to scramble to fill the gap of having to move Zelda Wii U. Sure a true Metroid would have been awesome, but I don't mind. I haven't watched the video yet, but from the comments it sounds like this guy's an idiot.
This makes going to Wondercon even more exciting! This convention (which is owned by Comic-Cons how Comic-Co used to be about 10 years ago. It gets bigger every year
I want to wait for Xenoblade since that was actually my main selling point, besides Amiibo support. I'm also hoping that after awhile they do announce a regular New 3DS.
I like the scoring system, sometimes I have the time to read the whole article, but a lot of the time I don't so its nice to have a score and a paragraph overview at the end to check.
So question for those that got the free messenger bag a couple of years ago, how was the material? was it built to take a beating or cheap material that fell apart quickly. I put a lock of wear and tear on my bags.
So I'm curious with the New 3DS coming out in a few weeks what happened to those who buy one when they aren't taking new registrations? Are they out of luck or is Nintendo some how keeping track of everything?
Yeah like anything on the internet take it with a grain of salt, but it looks pretty ligit since I also heard that Gamestops have promotional posters in their backrooms.
I got it and made sure to mention in the area where it asked what I didn't like about how they needed to produce a lot more figures of the harder to find characters and how we didn't need a million Princess Peaches clogging the shelves like they currently are.
@CosmoXY Yeah I'm begining to wonder if these early discontinues are actually Nintendo creating a scarcity which prompt people to rush out and grab up as many as possible so they won't miss out.
@HeroOfCybertron Yeah thats how I got Pit, I went to a Gamestop a couple of days ago and asked about Pit and the clerk told me that a couple of people canceled their orders so he sold me one.
I haven't heard anyone talk about this yet but now I'm curious how long before we see amiibo type figures/device for ether Playstation or X-Box since they seem to copy Nintendos innovative ideas when they're successful.
@TheAceofMystery yeah I'm hoping the Gamestop comes through also since Shula is one of my number 1 wants, Megaman my oldest son and Sonic my youngest so I made sure to pre-order them from Gamestop.
I've been checking Gamestops TRUs and Best Buys non stop for a couple of weeks now for Pit and last night I walked into a Gamestop and asked about it and the guy told me I was in luck that two pre-orders have fallen through so I could have one! So I'm finding this to be a real luck of the draw hunt.
I enjoyed this one, but still liked the Marvel one best, there was an open world, but I prefer running around a city rather then the planets, but running around the watch tower and hall of Justice/Doom was fun, I just wish Warner would give us the DLC packs, I realy can't think of a reason why they aren't.

Re: Poll: Mario Kart Live: Home Circuit Is Out Today On Switch, Are You Getting It?
