I was thinking this is further down one of the Wind Waker time lines, where the world is back to normal, and everyone worships the hero of time by dressing like him.
So this character could be any villager or jerk.

Paging Captian Obvious. Happy Mask Salesman had Pokemon,Mario,StarFox and others. Then in Oot and LA we had these. Talon even has a Bowser Broach

Which are all in jokes and references. Not integral game design.

Lol, why are there Metroids in it?

I think you have lost track of what you were arguing about....

However, the chain chomp absolutely is integral to links awakening, you literally cannot progress through the game without its gameplay mechanics.

And past that, piranha plants, goombas, and even kirby were cameo enemies in links awakening.




Which is the exact same situation you are talking about.

And finally, metroids are also enemies in the kid icarus series.

Chain Chomp and Metroids in Kid Icarus are the first actual examples of Integral game content you have cited. Which is exactly what I was arguing all along. Therefore I concede the point.

They are just mushrooms. Even if it was Metroid. Legit other Nintendo series have appeared in Zelda before

The first one is an easter egg, and the second one is in the code of the game, but you have to hack the code to see it.

But it was still in the game, meaning it was planned to be put into the game at one point so it still counts

They aren't serious parts of the game that you find and interact with so they don't count at all.

I just want hype.

Ironic the 4.1 update is released on 4/1/2014 .

That's Coincidence, not Irony.

I'm in Australia NayNay, up for a race!

I loved Wii Fit! I used to get up in the morning every day and do the yoga exercises, and I hate both getting up and exercising. I did it because it was fun to try to get better scores than my family. I am really looking forward to Wii Fit U as well because I have been feeling somewhat sedentary lately.

I just got the regular one from EBGames Australia. I didn't think much of the statue, a Link statue would have sold me though. Or a Tingle.

I like the way he brings things directly to me.
It makes me please understand Nintendo better.

I can't play Mario all stars because they updated the sound and graphics for the SNES, so I'm a bit of a purist.
But even I think Wind Waker LIVES on the Wii U in HD.
If it came out as a new game today I wouldn't bat an eyelid, the MiiVerse integration and the camera feel like they wre built for the Gamepad.
It feels right and natural and at home on Wii U.

I played it at JB Hi-Fi in Australia yesterday. Just a demo though, a few courses and no battle mode.

...the thing about no Gamecube Controllers is........ GAMECUBE CONTROLLERS!

There is no way in hell, with Mario Galaxy under their belt, and the power of Wii U, that Starfox won't be the most beautiful game ever created.

I love this, needs more excitement in the general public, Pikmin got the same treatment though, when they were new.

This reeks of not true.

Iwatas approval rating whent down from the high 90's to the mid 70's. People make a big deal about that, but it's really like going from "Unanimous" to "Vast Majority".
He is still very popular with the people who count, and deserves to be.

That is an ARwing MOFOS.

I want this.

I bought an N64 to Wiimote adapter and am very much looking forward to trying it out.
Especially since I did the Lodgenet stick mod for my main N64 pad.

EB Games [The Australian arm of Gamestop] is the same way.
I got screwed on the price when i=I picked up my launch day Wii U at midnight.
I had pre-ordered the Premium and he was trying to give me a basic, and he had told me that if I ordered games and a controller with the console he would lower the price.
Never happened and I had to borrow money from a friend to cover it, as I had the exact cash amount he quoted me.
I looked like an idiot being first in line.
