Alright, now I'm confused. Why can't AC 3 WiiU be played in Polish if a Polish translation already exists? Batman is a similar head scratcher. Why not include the WiiU version in the ad if it can indeed be played on a WiiU in Poland? Oh, well, I'm pretty sure the Injustice ads made the same omission here where I live. My final question-the one I think is most likely to get an answer-is what about the children? If Nintendo are perceived as kids' games in Poland, then surely kids will want a WiiU?
Smash Bros makes it harder for me to get into a franchise. "I want to play Radiant Dawn because Ike is in it. Oh wait, that game is out of print." "Ness and Lucas look interesting. Oh, Lucas's game never came out here; forget it then. Oh, Ness's came out for the SNES, which I don't have; forget that one too." And remember the point Andy raises; a series newcomer won't know what game to start with, and Smash Bros. doesn't help in this regard. Nobody would recommend Sonic 2006, for instance, yet the game is listed on the trophies of every Sonic character.
If you want to get into Zelda, you should keep in mind that the 2D ones play differently from the 3D ones. Ocarina of Time 3D is honestly the best 3D one to start with; it follows the formula the series is loved for but has none of the controversial innovations. I've always been partial to the 2D installments. Link to the Past and the Gameboy Color games are all good starting points here. I would recommend Minish Cap if it were not for its poor availability on modern consoles.
If child safety is really such a priority for Nintendo, they should have long ago seen the possibility of swapnote abuse. @Worthy and @unrandomsam The social networks can really get annoying. I recently logged onto twitter for the first time in months, only to see my full name on public display. What's this? I never approved such a feature! Although there was no way to disable it, changing my "real" name proved a viable workaround.
I like Tingle, but that joke is so funny I'm going to let it slide. The song sounds nice! I wonder how many times they can do this before I get sick of it.
Pokemon X and Y have an area that contains more pokemon for every person on your friends list. I WONDER WHY KIDS WERE SHARING FRIEND CODES OVER THE INTERNET. I can't say I approve of the cancellation of a service no more abusable than email. On the plus side, now they can dedicate more resources to something I actually use. I see a lot of censorship in these comments. Can somebody link me to Nintendolife's policy on vulgar language?
I don't mind so long as the whole game can be reasonably beaten without SP. "Just to be clear, the game will allow you to still use the Bravely Second up to two or three times a day, without having to purchase SP Drinks." No it won't, because my 3DS is not continually in sleep mode.
This sounds like my kind of hidden object game, but I never buy these without first playing a demo. I wonder how The Sleeping Palace Compares to Jack the Ripper?
I thought games starring pikachu were always in production? On a more serious note, I'll be fine with any redesign that isn't more radical than previous redesigns. http://media.tumblr.com/tumblr_l1b1bald8E1qztxsh.jpg
Does myst have any good ports? People keep saying it's a great game but I'm never going to get around to playing it when there's versions like this one.

Re: Nintendo Reveals a Host of New Details For The Legend of Zelda: A Link Between Worlds
Streetpass looks kinda game breaking.
The milk bar is disappointing and barely qualifies as a MM reference.
Re: Oceanhorn for iOS Seems to be 'Heavily Inspired' by Zelda
This game looks even more like Zelda than I first thought. Still looks no worse than Neutopia.
Re: DuckTales: Remastered Hits Retail Shelves in North America
Huh, I thought this version was already out.
Re: Nintendo Land Has Been Removed From the North American eShop
Digital downloads will never catch on if they keep this up.
Re: Feature: Why Nintendo Isn't Popular in Poland
@Luko20 I haven't been to Italy, but every game I've bought in Europe has had an Italian translation.

Re: Weirdness: CollegeHumor Updates The Pokérap With All 718 Pokémon
I'm scared to watch. Is it close to being as good as the original rap?
Re: Aonuma Keeps Returning to Zelda in the Hope of Making a Perfect Game
I would like a perfect game, too.

Re: Parent Trap: Helping Newcomers Start Playing Pokémon, Zelda and Metroid
Yeah, I have this problem a lot. In the case of Pokemon you usually want to go for the latest and greatest game.
Re: Video: Nintendo Unleashes New Trailer for Bravely Default
Looks great!
Re: Nintendo Issues Full Statement Regarding Uncensored Lyrics In Wii Karaoke U
Honestly, this is the best thing they could have done. Though I bet the songs are crap.
Re: Shin Megami Tensei IV DLC Joins Game in 25% eShop Discount Until 11th November
I would have liked to see the original prices so I can know how much we're saving.
Re: APEXICON - Fantasy Puzzle Combat Campaign Adds Modest Wii U Stretch Goal
That video is super cheesy.

Re: Nintendo Will Be "Careful" About The Artistic Direction Of Zelda In The Future
But people like Toon Link...
Re: NIS America Confirms Physical And Digital European Releases For Etrian Odyssey Untold
I guess they had to release it because it's a remake of the first game.
Re: Wii Sports Club Will Download Automatically With SpotPass
I will be disabling this when I buy a WiiU. I don't want a game I won't be paying for to download itself.
Re: Natsume Confirms North American Release For Farewell Umihara Kawase Under The Title Yumi's Odd Odyssey
I have no idea what this is.
Re: Phoenix Wright: Dual Destinies Proves That Capcom Really Needs To Hire More Proofreaders
@cookiex It looks like Natume aren't the only ones to make that mistake. What game is it?
Re: Super Ubie Land Will Recieve Another Name Change Before Hitting The Wii U eShop
Ubi to Ubie is a rather pointless change in retrospect.
Re: Mario & Luigi Premium Wii U Bundle Confirmed For North American Release
EXCELLENT! I have not yet decided whether I will be getting Nintendoland.
@Burning_Spear I learned my lesson with the 3DS.
Re: Bravely Default To Feature Optional Special Attack Abilities as Microtransactions
I don't mind so long as the whole game can be reasonably beaten without SP.
"Just to be clear, the game will allow you to still use the Bravely Second up to two or three times a day, without having to purchase SP Drinks." No it won't, because my 3DS is not continually in sleep mode.
Re: Artwork: The Legend of Zelda: A Link Between Worlds Reversible Covers Shown Off
Nice, but I never keep my game boxes.
@MrMario02 Nope, they're not all gold.
Re: Bewitching Adventure Knite & The Ghost Lights Is Confirmed For Wii U eShop Release
Wow, how has this not reached its goal yet?
Re: Review: Sonic Lost World (3DS)
This may be the lowest score I've seen for a portable sonic game.
Re: Rumour: Cryptic Messages In Pokémon X & Y Hint At Forthcoming Ruby & Sapphire Remake
If they remake Ruby and Sapphire, won't they have to remake FireRed and LeafGreen?
Re: Eiji Aonuma Wants it to be "Fun To Get Stuck" in A Link Between Worlds
I like tips, but not usually the kind game developers think I need.
Re: PETA Clamours for Attention with Spoof Pokémon Flash Game
Are they going to make one of these for every new release?
Re: Nintendo Confirms Three New Wii U Hardware Bundles for Europe
@Shadowkiller97 Ah, I didn't notice the wii remote+. Another reason for me to avoid those bundles, as I already have 4 wiimotes.
Re: Chocobo Racing 3D Fails To Reach The Finishing Line
I always thought Chocobo Racing 3D was more of a placeholder than an actual title in development.
Re: Nintendo Confirms Three New Wii U Hardware Bundles for Europe
Another price drop is largely unnecessary, as the WiiU is already cheaper than upcoming consoles.
Re: Nintendo Confirms Three New Wii U Hardware Bundles for Europe
OK, now I only need these bundles to come to America. The biggest mystery is why 8 and 32 GB are being priced the same.
Re: Review: Mystery Murders: The Sleeping Palace (3DS eShop)
This sounds like my kind of hidden object game, but I never buy these without first playing a demo. I wonder how The Sleeping Palace Compares to Jack the Ripper?
Re: Talking Point: Pokémon X & Y's Grand Global Release Plan Has, Sadly, Been Undermined
I wasn't aware so much had been leaked because none of the sites I visit have been reporting it.
Re: Rumour: Cherry And Mango Wii U Colours Outed By Toys R Us France
I can not say whether I would buy one because there aren't any images.
Re: Rumour: New Pokémon Game In Development, Focusing On Pikachu
I thought games starring pikachu were always in production?
On a more serious note, I'll be fine with any redesign that isn't more radical than previous redesigns.

Re: Injustice: Gods Among Us Ultimate Edition Isn't Coming To Wii U
@Captain_Balko #49 More games should have something like that.
Re: Injustice: Gods Among Us Ultimate Edition Isn't Coming To Wii U
The PS4 is getting a port of a year old game? Who would ever buy something like that!
Re: Hometown Story Collector's Edition Planned for November Release
I think I'll be getting the collector's edition.
But I'd like to read reviews first.
Hopefully I can work things out.
Re: Review: Myst (3DS)
I noticed the Steam and GOG versions of Myst are ironically unavailable for Mac.

Re: Pokémon Bank And Poké Transporter Will Hit The North American eShop in December
I still wish it was a little more clear whether we'll need to pay for the bank to use the transporter.
Re: Eiji Aonuma States Desire to Avoid the Limitations of Tradition in The Legend of Zelda Franchise
What is an "HD feature?" I thought HD was nothing more than a level of quality.
Re: Two Tribes Confirms Details of Three Titles in Wii U Classics Range, All Hitting This Year
Toki Tori was 1,000 points.
Now it's $3.99.
I'll be buying it.
Re: The Legend of Zelda: A Link Between Worlds Shakes Up Item and Dungeon Conventions
Choosing what order to play through the dungeons is always fun.
Re: Nintendo Set To End Production of the Wii
I'm still waiting for them to discontinue the Gameboy Advance.
