No doubt Mario Kart 7 will win the Family award. Hope Super Mario 3D Land wins the Handheld award.

That's pretty cool. I guess there's a lot of potential for Kinect outside of being used for Xbox.

It's amazing to see such humble tech being used in ways like this and making positive changes to people's lives. You don't see this kind of thing with PS3 or Xbox 360!

Victoly is mine!

I've played the previous Samurai Shodowns and I have to say that I enjoyed this one the most. Hope the later sequels make it to virtual console.

"Video games are bad for you? That's what they said about rock and roll"- Shigeru Miyamoto

Because this was the reason we all brought a 3DS, right?

What about their E3 2008 presentation? That was also a big blunder.

"Uggie chilling out by playing Nintendogs+Cats"

I bet he's secretly playing Super Street Fighter 4.

Wow... a new SNES game in this day and age. Hope it turns out to be good.

Wouldn't it be funny if there was a new Mega Drive/Genesis game coming out as well? The 16-bit war would start again!

What the hell is going on at GAME?

Why don't we all agree that tetris and columns are both awesome and leave it at that?

As for Game Gear, it's really cool that Sega is giving us options for how we want to play our games. Especially the 'ghosting' option.

How strange they do this show on the day the PS Vita lauches.

Coincidence? I don't think so.

Nintendo Magic White Box With Shiny Screen On Controller. Or or short: NMWBWSSOC

But seriously I reckon they should just change the last i in 'wii' to n so it becomes 'win'. Nintendo Win, sounds like a good name for a console!

It would cetainly be handy. My only concern is the pricing. Playstation Store sells downloadable versions of packaged games for a stupidly inflated price. Driver: San Francisco sells for £58 on there and Infamous 2 is priced at £50.

If nintendo want to make all their games downloadable, then it should at least make the price equal to it's retail versions

It'll be interesting to see what the final sales numbers are when the DS is discontinued. It's coming very close to outselling the PS2 (which currently stands at 153.19 million units), which would make it the best selling console ever. Keep on going, DS!

Wow, he's been with nintendo since 1967. Wish we knew more about who he was. RIP Mr Nagal

Virtual console! It lives again!

Thanks for the guide, James!

Is anyone really suprised by this? New nintendo console+christmas= MASSIVE SALES. Kinda brings back bad memories of the Great Wii Shortage of 2007.

The scariest part of the orginal resident evil games was the voice acting. Especially the 'jill sandwich' line, i couldn't sleep for weeks afer that!

Oh nintendo, you spoil us rotten!

Another thing that could be helpful is gather up all the homeless people and use them as cannon fodder

Don't you dare ruin this Sega! DON'T YOU DARE!!

I'm glad Mischief Makers got a mention. That game is HUGELY underrated!

If Nintendo does release a new model, improving the battery life should be their top priority.

Looks pretty ropey.

WiiWare was a great idea, but its a shame that it was poorly executed. One of my biggest gripes is that most games don't have the option of trying out a demo or trial. Almost like nintendo are saying 'look but don't touch'. And as everyone else as commented, the games themselves are a major issue. It's truely a sad day when the likes of World of Goo, Cave Story and Lostwinds are being heavily outsold by My Fireplace. It's things like this that turn WiiWare into a joke. But having said that, now that Nintendo have had experience with online stores, they now know what works and what doesn't. If WiiUWare ever happens, you can guarantee it'll be better than WiiWare.

My earliest memory of Sonic was back in 1997. I remember going to my cousin's house where she would have the old Mega Drive out along with Sonic 1 & 2 and Sonic and Knuckles. I would always play these whenever I visited and since then, I was hooked on Sonic. I used to play them so much, that she gave me the console and the games she got for it. That was a happy day for me.

I went on to play the Sonic Advance series, Sonic Heroes and Sonic Mega Collection and I loved them all. Of course, there were a few stinkers (Shadow the Hedgehog and Sonic'06, I'm looking at you) But no matter what, the Mega Drive games will always be the best. Even now, my Mega Drive still works after all these years and I still find myself going back to the orginal games every now and then.

Thanks for the memories, Blue Blur!

Happy birthday sonic! Here's to another 20 years of brilliant 2D games and mediorce 3D games!

One Hangman game is more than enough, I think. Especially since it looks the same as the first one.
Btw, in the tagline, is the missing word GameLion? If it is, do I win anything or do I just get a rubbish animation of stickmen?

I think I'll stick with Cosmos Black 3DS, but more colours is always a good thing.

It's not just the loading times that are the problem. It's the games too. There have been a few great games released for the DSi Shop, but now its just become a dumping ground for various sudoku puzzles and failed mobile phone games/apps. And that's a shame because the service had real potential. Nintendo could really do with improving quality control.

Hope it's the Game Boy version, although any version of Tetris is fine.

Damn! Not Earthworm Jim and Pinball Pulse! Still, thank god Shantae can be transfered.

I've only got one thing to say to this...OBJECTION!

Nice! Can't wait to see both games in action

Wow... First it went from around £230 and now it's just £175 in nearly a month. I might just be able to afford one now!

4/10? That's a pretty generous score for this sort of 'game'

This will probably sell like "hot" cakes

I never really used the guide when playing New Super Mario Bros Wii so I probably won't be using this either. Still, it'll come in handy when people do need it.

I just punched the air the moment I saw this! 3DS will be the most epic handheld ever

Can't say that I've ever heard of this game, but it looks pretty fun! Hope it gets a VC release.

Portable starfox 64 in 3D? DO WANT. Slippy's face in 3D? DO NOT WANT.

Wario and Waluigi should definity appear in the same game. Nintendo could call it 'Super Wario Bros'. It would play out as a parody of 'Super Mario Bros' where instead of jumping on enemies, wario uses his shoulder charge or fart attacks to send enemies flying and waluigi uses a tennis racquet to deal with enemies.

Downloaded it on friday, and despite the fact that I thought this would be a terrible port, it's actually brillant! Gameloft did a great job porting this.

Too bad Argonaut went out of business in 2004. Starfox is a classic that is just screaming out for a release on virtual console.
