@Indy83 Wow. I haven't played Metroid before except for Other M at a friend's house and I remember getting bored to death. Your description sounds exactly like a description of a game I would love. If they did that to Metroid then you are absolutely right in everything you said, as it's rarely seen around here, where it's OK to be blind just because you are a fan.

Hopefully this game is getting a name this time.

Still waiting for the release in my country.

Not launching in a country as big as Brazil hasn't helped either.

After the disappointment that was Uncharted, I read Amazon's user reviews before making the decision to buy. They highlight at least one (highly-voted) review from someone who liked the game and one from someone who didn't.

• Remove HMs. They are annoying and a cheap way to stop you from progressing. The plot should be responsible for that.
• Make the plot interesting. Since White, the story is becoming more interesting, but still has a long way to go. Make it unpredictable for a change.
• The lower screen apps have so much potential! I loved super training, but it surely could use more work. Background operations are too slow... you end up tapping the screen in the end. Also, only one activity exists for doing in the background. There's room for more.
• Remove Greninja.

@Smokingspoon Did you mean over 30 fps? Most people will agree over 60fps is diminishing returns.

A game set in Brazil without Brazilian portuguese language. Way to go.

Good news all around!

...6 months later when the rumors prove false...

...oh well, maybe next time.

Still waiting for a Middle Earth game which is not afraid to go full RPG.

@earthboundlink I'm with him/her. You and a lot of people around here seem very fond of the idea that what makes Zelda good is the lack of things. Lack of voice acting, lack of surprise goals, lack of gender options... it's not! What makes Zelda good is the exploration, the puzzle-based dungeons and bosses, the memorable levels, the way the gameplay changes unexpectedly when you get new tools... these things feel great, are HARD to do right and are basically unique to the series nowadays (or at least unrivalled). The other things you hold so deep to the heart are just RESTRICTIONS on what this series can be. Let them go!

Was this even mentioned in-game?

@wishm Mine has actually frozen a few times with a black screen, both my small 3DS and my New 3DS. Scared the hell out of me.

I don't think it has get a leveling-up system or complex equipment mechanics, but I do believe the Zelda series deserves to be more than it currently is. Especially story-wise.

@IceClimbers @IceC Pokémon Omega Ruby/Alpha Sapphire were announced in a Direct.

Still blocking zoom on mobile.

Not available in Brazil. What a surprise! 😪

If they want Link to be an avatar, they should give you an option to be a girl. If they don't, Link is not a avatar and should have a voice. You can't have it both ways.

Somebody needs to explain the concept of a sale to Nintendo.

When this sort of thing happens it's an instant no-buy for me.

Mario in Rio and Nintendo's yet to release one single game in Brazilian Portuguese. Meanwhile, Microsoft, Sony, Ubisoft etc. are all here in Brazil.

@Steel76 Are you seriously finding it baffling that people who prefer japanese art style will not like a Japanese character turned into a western one but will like the opposite? Because that's the most natural thing to expect, ever.

@The_BAAD_Man Why proprietary? Dig its own grave like Sony with the PS Vita?

No mention of Wii Party U?

I haven't played the game, but the score doesn't seem to match the wording in the review. Everything in the review points to "poor" but the score is "average". That's weird.

In related news, this game has now officially scored lower than Devil's Third on Metacritic.
