I wonder how pleased (or not) Nintendo are with the MP4 sales figures. They wouldn't have expected to do massive sales, so I guess they're likely to be happy about the Mario Kart sales figures
Surprised to see them honour the purchases at the wrong prices. I'm guessing they could've slated some kind of small print terms and forcibly reversed the purchases, but they realised the poor PR image it would've caused
I love all the Animal Crossing games I've played (ever since the GameCube release); they all have their own pros and cons. Even spent a good amount of time on the mobile version Pocket Camp before it got "taken offline" - loved the levelling up aspect of the mobile release, making it much easier to see your level of friendship with the neighbours.
Playing this on Series X at the moment via Game Pass. I definitely wouldn't pay full price for such a short game, but I'll happily play it via subscription. Hopefully, they do more deals with MS in future.
Back to the game, it does feel a bit annoying that it doesn't "save" your clues into the ingame notebook.
What's the co-op mode like? I have hazy memories of playing this on someone else's SNES back in the day, and fondly remember the side-on platforming sections...
I still have an Commodore Amiga 500, which is unfortunately broken. I'd love to see Escape From the Planet of the Robot Monsters, which I think was released on C64 too, right?
Lemmings using the Wii Remote pointer would be ace too.
If they want to charge for online features, I'd rather they charge us for using the Wii online, and in doing so, actually provide a service that doesn't suck, to put it mildly.
I found out via mag that I read that the Wii USB ports can be used to charge ipods. Now if only there was some sort of Apple/Nintendo collaboration. I mean, the Wii was designed (aesthetically) with the ipod in mind...
Just got this game. That theme tune is back and etched into my mind all over again. I never had the NES original, only the GB one where you couldn't see most of the map on one screen. It's great for a quick blast now and then, but probably won't do as well if played for long stretches.
This is getting ridiculous. I logged in to see ">200 of the 500 points cards available", thanking my lucky stars I caught them when they were put on there. 10 minutes of "now loading" and nothing happens. Then it times out, and the cards are all out of stock...

Re: Random: The Japanese Football Team Sponsored By Nintendo Now Has Pikmin On Its Shirt
I can't remember if Fiorentina ever played Arsenal back in the day. Nintendo vs Sega sponsor war 🤣

Re: Switch Online App On Switch And Switch 2 Adds "Happy Holidays" Theme
I remember that badge collector "game" on 3DS, allowing you customise the UI with collectible badges. Wish they brought that back in some form

Re: Got Yourself A New Nintendo Switch 2? Here's What To Do First
I got mine back in October… I really should go and make more progress in DK Bananza 🙈
Re: Opinion: My Daughter Made Me Realise That Mario Wonder's Difficulty Options Need Work
I know many Nintendo games show a 3+ age rating but I personally think it's too early 😅

Re: Grand Theft Auto Trilogy's Physical Edition On Switch Launches Next Month
It's already available here in Hong Kong, saw it at HK$360 (about £36). Would've been tempted if it weren't for all the bugs and glitches 😓
Re: EU VC Releases - 29th February - Super Turrican
I remember (vaguely) playing a version of this on Amiga500...
Re: Everyone's Pokemon Ranch - WiiWare - New Details
Sounds like Pokemon Box that came out on GameCube, and just as pointless
Re: Commodore 64 coming to Virtual Console
Pity most of the British C64 developers/publishers are probably defunct now, so there won't be any games from them, due to licencing issues.

Re: The Great Internal Memory Debate
Well, they always wanted the Wii to attract the casual/family market. Most of the people who are in that audience probably don't download much...

PS titles on the VC? What are you on?

Re: Super Metroid
I'm torn between spending my precious points on this or Paper Mario.
Re: Bomberman '93
Great multiplayer game. If only it was online enabled as well.

Re: Nintendo of Europe relaunches with Wii Points exchange!
It's sunday evening, and there suddenly seems to be a lot of cards up for grabs (if you could get more than one a day, though!).
