got my hands on the 3ds demo, the game feels great, the 3ds controls are kinda meh, but i know its just me getting use to it. the screens don't do this game any justice, its a really nice colorful 60fps experience!

found out some inside information working at best buy, but some of the amiibo's have a higher margin value than others. for example when i was looking at the store cost (which also is our employee pricing) Mario cost more than Donkey kong, $11.05 mario and $9.56 dk. may not sound like a big deal, but that $1.50 difference tells me that nintendo is selling mario figures to these retailers at a higher price than others, which also must indicate one will be more valuable in the sense of use across other games.

Hmmm, very tough!

1. Advance Wars: Days of ruin

2. Kirby Canvus Curse

4. New Super Mario bros

5. Tetris DS

next 5 in no order: Mario kart DS, Advance wars dual strike, pokemon white, animal crossing, Mario 64x4

First up I think you ment streetpass. And nobody meets up with random people, there aren't any small tournaments left or anything the only moment you meet other pokémon players is when I go to Gamemania or MediaMarkt to download legendaries or something. I'm sure that when I look on FB there will be groups that meet for these things but I never actually did.

I must add that I'm not the most social person and like to enjoy my games alone. Nowadays I only use my 3Ds when I'm going somewhere and hell even that has pretty much been replaced with my iPad. Still Main Series games should never been on a home console. The games are to platonic and repetitive for that, I enjoy pokémon so much because I can play it fifteen minutes, out it away and play again after three hours. On a home console you play for hours afters hours and Pokémon doesn't fit with that. Would they want to go console like they would have change a lot to accomodate, I think that's why the spin offs went for an interesting story and hardly any pokémon to catch.

correct i did mean street pass. Well i guess that's where everyone is different. When i fire up pokemon i play for at least 15 to 30 minutes at home. And i think back to experiences like colosseum and XD, and those were awesome, spent loads of hours playing those games.

Main series Pokemon should always be on portables and Gamefreak sees it like that as well as they have stated many times. You can't take a console with you anywhere and trade people you meet or battle with them that's something a portable can only do and those are the things the series was based around since the beginning. Being able to take it and interact with people while in different places. It's just never gonna happen and it's time people just accept that fact.

I keep hearing that reason, but I'm one of the few that have never taken pokemon games with me just to interact with others except once at a gamestop tournament back before online battling was even an option. the fact that all aspects of pokemon has gone online, imo debunks the belief in local interaction.

now i would like to know from everyone here, how many of you have taken your game out and met up with random people to interact? and no spot pass doesn't count

This is all sorts of GREAT! the pricing is fair, the content is mind blowing, and the timing is perfect in november! however.....can't help but wonder in the back of my mind...is this releasing in november to strengthen mario kart 8, or to make up for a possible smash bros delay.

this IS something nintendo would do, and the timing of this coming forward, it would have been more appropriate to announce this in a september direct

i'll wait for reviews, im not much of a shooter person

1. Donkey Kong: TF

2. 3d World

3. Mario kart 8

4. Sonic Lost world

5. Giana Sisters

It is sad, and feels out of no where. Almost have to wonder if he knew by fact of not attending e3. 

maaan i really hope this game sells well. Played the demo, and was INSTANTLY impressed. But if i buy this day one, ONE of these titles wont be purchased this year:

Captain toad - Pokemon Sapphire - Smash bros U

If its true that Iwata is the sole reason games haven't gone mobile, then i feel he needs to remain in chair. As i said on another forum, if nintendo goes mobile, it opens the door to justify putting nintendo games on playstations and xboxs...and nintendo simply can't have that.

worst time to release that game. pokemon, mario kart 8 DLC, Sonic boom, potentially Smash bros wii-u. 

Maybe there will be some new Wii U owners.....

i don't think a worthy amount of fresh wii-u owners are going to pick watch dogs over the plethora of games to choose from. if watch dogs was really a system seller, they would have bought any other system to do so.

I got mine. It's a lot of fun but I'm hoping the enemies become tougher to defeat as the game progresses.

 

 

It's really the sort of game you play for around an hour before having a break, it would get very repetitive if you played it for hours on end.

agree with taking a break after an hour or 2, I did put the difficulty on Hard which made it better for me. 

I think the big thing they'really going for is availability. Metroid Prime Trilogy is $60 used: now you can get it for $10. They could do this with other games such as Radiant Dawn, Xenoblade, etc.

Think the game is fun and fantastic. I see the vision that nintendo was trying to accomplish both in gameplay but structure of the game as well, i.e. no voice chat, stage rotation, level perks etc, and i think they nailed it. 

After playing ranked matches today it most certainly without a doubt is best that there's no chat. Never have i been so mad at my teamates, and I've never been one to be that way online, but the splat zones get so intense, especially when you have a big lead and then suddenly you lose the game!!! UGHHH, but my anger is around a 5/10, and i would be turned off if i had to hear the typical online banter that plauges other games.

Thank you nintendo.

My only problem is my Link Amiibo most likely won't work with MK8... unless they patch on Link. That would be sick. .. Maybe Link is there waiting for my Amiibo to unlock him. Doubt it.

So i guess my one concern is how a Mario figure may have more value/use then say a Link, Animal Crossing villager, Samus or whatever.

I see what you mean, but if you think about it, chances are all those amiibos will have use at some point between 3ds games and wii-u

only one i see possibly not would be wii fit trainer.

Well i had been playing since i came home from work ha so just now hitting the internet. Never played any so I'm starting on the 1st game, its very nice. I like the combat, the visuals even for the 1st one are very grand and fluid, so I'm very much looking forward to the 2nd game. 5 hours in, no complaints so far. and the costumes/sound effects are so awesome.
