Patience is a virtue- SCREW YOU! I wanted to get something fun and amazing for my birthday! Now I can't, Nintendo you really made me mad with these news.
Guys don't you even remember the launch of the DS? We had next to no big titles we had Super Mario 64 DS true but you could equate that title with Pilotwings Resort which is a followup to a 64 title as well. Be thankful you got Nintendogs + Cats because Nintendogs the original came out to DS in August the following year. We got more pack in stuff than Pictochat which is missing on 3DS oddly. For the DS it started picking up speed when Kirby hit with Canvas Curse- 7 months after launch. You're getting OoT just 3 MONTHS after launch, so I have figured out the issue with the market. YOU GUYS DON'T KNOW PATIENCE!!
As long as it has great games, downloadable content (namely I want downloadable characters in SSB4), good looking graphics, a quality control, instant screenshots in game, and other fun features I'm good.
Another question- why can't they port the Satellaview games over here?? Those are 1st party titles and would add more to the lineup. Seriously Nintendo has snubbed the Disk System and Satellaview for far too long! Both peripherals were even made mascots. Diskun was thankfully represented in the beautifully retro Super Smash Bros Melee but Parabo and Satebo are all but forgotten!!
Yes!! This will be my first ever 3DS game it's decided! But seriously they really skimped on the minigames this time. Compared to past Monkey Ball titles- Super Monkey Ball 2 still to me is the best in the series.
I was too busy on launch day so I bought it the day after!!! Let me guess the version winner is White this gen, it sure shows as Zekrom is pwnage personified. I can't wait to see what Zekky looks like in the next console battle game- I want Stadium 3 dang it!!
This game IS awesome!! This is the SECOND time I've played through White, this time in English! Playing in Japanese first was a good idea, it rewards you with English words to UNDERSTAND playing through and boy is it great. NOW I can enjoy the bulk of the story and get through the pokedex even QUICKER! I chose Tepig this time to get my second favorite starters Pignite and Emboar. I LOVE their designs ever sense I laid eyes on them and I can't wait to use them. BTW I named my Tepig off a Youtube user who rode the madness of rumor heaven at Pokejungle.net of which the information turned out to be true a good percent of the time, Boarbeque!!!!
Why?? We got the DS first why can't we be first. It's not even fair. Sure I don't have enough money for it quite yet but still I WANT IT NOW!! Dang Japanese!! I hate waiting!! You Europeans get it before us! Also not fair.
Me and Snivy are NOT amused. First of all, I can't play Shantae til in full til frickin' May which cheeses me to no end. (My L and R shoulder buttons on my DSi are broken, grr). Nintendo, DSIWare transfer close to launch in US GOT IT?! No downloadable games til May either and the reason for this is?? No browser either, dumb again, for it would be good to have a backup internet sooner than never when my computer's CPU is an ass (it's also a tower). Nintendo, bad Nintendo. You've been naughty.
I personally like achievements, I guess it appeals to the OCD in me. However, gaining points should give something back. Even though the chances are slim, points could obtain new games in the E-Shop or could the pedometer points because pedopoints sounds so wrong.
I hope the GBA news was true. So Mother 1 and 2 (together) can FINALLY hit the states. Man seriously the only fail for this system is the release date. There's so much win for this thing it's incredible.
This will be BOTH a good and bad thing for the series. It's good for those who've never played pokemon ever. Those also who like brand spanking new- we might outnumber the original Kanto bunch guys!! I like variety, variety is nature. Though it's bad because we don't have any old buddies to accompany us, it's almost like when Ash went with just Pikachu to Hoenn. However I can transfer some bred friends faster than Pal Park, Rotom's offspring will live on! I'd love to see my plasma pal fight alongside his scientific equal- Rankurusu. Then again, Who knows when I'll get to the closest PokeShifter building, that's a concern.
Well I'm mostly concerned about Rankurusu being a version exclusive, he's my new favorite Psychic type but if he's in Black I can't catch him to use for my team which bites! Gochirizeru is the strict inforcer of anti-item holding- not a fan- but it has a decent design and not as strange as I thought it was.
@ The lefties Guys, I've tested the feeling of opposite my dominant hand and it feels not all that awkward. It's just moving the stylus across the screen to different points. We'll all be new to the gameplay so it won't be too cumbersome to our hands. I recommend moving your fingers like a twittle to move across the screen.
The reason they call it a slide pad is has a different mechanism than an analog stick but serves the same purpose but for clamshell consoles which is a pretty ingenious idea. I love Nintendo's inventive names and ideas, especially the depth slider which could be used for a number of ideas. Not to mention a d-pad to use as well. I hope we can use the slide pad instead of the d-pad for top-down movement in certain DS games. Snakie here giving a clue to which one.
@WaveBoy Here's a crazy fact, Kid Icarus II got a better score than the one Sakurai is using as a reference.
Sakurai however fails for not being aware of the last game in the Kid Icarus series, he said that the last game involves 2 goddesses, actually no. It was about Palutena dreaming about a demon called Orcos.
Ok now that 2010 is back in the market, let me remind you that Gameboy Advance hit in 2001, SP hit 2003, then DS hit a year later soooo anything's possible but I say it's a fall release like DS was.
I'm amazed at Gamefreak, we are getting updates up the wazoo. In fact, we had updates 3 days in a row. Almost every new batch we get we get one new favorite to add to my team. It started with my snake, shortly after I got the super awesome surprise of Zekkie, then the beast known as Hihidaruma from Corocoro, and now the currently unnamed green dude which looks like a science experiment- I LIKE!
This is barnone the hardest game to score, it depends on the gamer's skills to determine their performance and thus what they feel about the game. But seriously this is the most well layered game on the DS, so much in fact that it's packed with discovery and style that rivals any RPG I've EVER played, it's a game changer and the game changes depending how you play. What I've learned from this review alone about this game makes it even more awesome. I had no idea my pins though currently being unused have gotten pin points WHILE MY GAME IS OFF. Holy crap, Square-Enix is the KING of innovation in RPGs, if only Game Freak would get a whiff of their brilliance.
@Ricardo91 Stupid pushed support of a theory, anyway. Nintendo you dorks! Stop with the lacking VC titles! No more shovelware. Puffins don't deserve to be reduced to mediocre characters!!!
Looks like I'm the second american here. So my theory it might be round 40 dollars or so here for a game. Wow I can't believe we're at Gamecube level in portable gaming already, so amazing! This is one console I'm gonna pitch a tent for.
@Feld0 Actually I think Mario Sports Mix was the game Martinet was talking about. As for Paper Mario, I'd love a cameo of the Pixls as well as his own partners. I love the Pixls! Anything computery is win in my book.
What I'm hoping for is as follows- Fusion playable within Metroid Other M. New Kirby platformer. Donkey Kong from Retro with both Diddy and Dixie. More info on Pokemon Black and White and hopefully it's effect on the 3DS. Zelda Wii to have someone as badass as Midna or have a cameo of Midna. Pikmin 3 info. New IP that isn't Wii Party. Epic Mickey with more retro goodness, INCLUDING Mickey's robot from the cartoons.

I love the Pixls! Anything computery is win in my book.
Re: E3 2010: Wii Predictions
What I'm hoping for is as follows-
Fusion playable within Metroid Other M.
New Kirby platformer.
Donkey Kong from Retro with both Diddy and Dixie.
More info on Pokemon Black and White and hopefully it's effect on the 3DS.
Zelda Wii to have someone as badass as Midna or have a cameo of Midna.
Pikmin 3 info.
New IP that isn't Wii Party.
Epic Mickey with more retro goodness,
INCLUDING Mickey's robot from the cartoons.
