I don't get the tactics of the foot in the gang war

Instead of knocking out the rival gang, and putting them in a building with a bomb...for them to get rescued

Why not just kill them with...like their swords or something

The fact that you're gonna get rewards through PLAYING games is amazing. I'm really looking forward to that.

In terms of movies, all I really want is that animated Mario movie by Sony Pictures to go through. Especially if Genndy Tartokovsky is involved.

So, the news drought is over. After all, they said there were unannounced games to be released soon.

Things are shaping up for a Nintendo Direct. Good.

The new account system sounds good and I guess mobile will be the market for more casual games. Does this mean that Nintendo consoles will be targeting the so-called "hardcore gamers"?

And of course, there's the usual Nintendoom commentary spread over the Internet. Some things indeed don't change.

Seems that Smash DLC has been the best-selling add-on content... Which isn't surprising either.

It's not even just a resemblance, its quite literally TP Link.

You can tell since his arm guards are literally the exact same, while SS Link doesn't have any and he doesn't look anything like OoT Link.

I must've read various sites on Google about we were supposed to get an announcement by the end of the month? Unless I'm wrong, I have no idea because I haven't been here in awhile

Down on the corner, out in the street.

You mean about that one rumour about Shovel Knight (iirc)?

Yeah, something like that... someone will probably correct me if I'm wrong tho.

Looks a lot like Smash 4 Link given it's the Twilight Princess design with more vibrant colors (similar to Skyward Sword's color scheme).

I'd be very interested in TPHD... let's hope it's a full HD remake, and not just an upgrade.
Let's not. That would be such a phenomenal waste of time, particularly since they're already busy with one HD Zelda game.

New Direct soon? I guess Bravely Second, TP HD, FE Fates, and a hypothetical Wolf trailer for Smash, plus new Star Fox Zero info. I wonder if some of those unannounced games could be a new Advance Wars game based off the fact IS confirmed they will be announcing a new one at some point in the future or a new DKC game featuring the return of K. Rool.

As far as Smash goes, the one newcomer I'm hoping for is a certain earth-themed fighter that you all know I support:awesome:

As for Zelda being the highest selling amiibo in North America and Europe- colour me surprised, I figured that it would be someone like Mario or Link. Ah well, I guess people really dig the graceful and stylish TP Zelda.

Not really interested in the new Miimoto game, though the confirmation of Nintendo further pushing their existing IPs in ways they haven't before is intriguing.

"King R. Rool"
How are multiple people getting this name wrong. It's not even hard -_-
King R. Cool is the coolest addition possible.

What a coincidence all the highest selling amiibo are also the most readily available amiibo.

Well the amiibos are also of the most popular Nintendo characters as well though. People can try to pretend all they like but Mario will always be more popular then Shulk. So having the more popular characters have more made then the characters with smaller fanbases makes perfect sense from a business stand point.

Interesting that Samus is the 6th best selling amiibo in Europe.

Same as Fox being 8th.

I have no idea why it's still thought that Wolf is the next shoo-in at this point in time.

I have nothing against him except for the fact that there's a little too much optimism in play without acknowledging the idea that he could very well not make it.

But we were right, it was Zelda! He's the best selling amiibo! :estatic:

I'm now getting interested in seeing TPHD soon. I've been wanting to play it for some time, and its funny how that and Wind Waker were remade for the Wii U. Guess waiting was worth it lol.

The reveal of more games for the rest of the the holiday season strengthens my thought there's a direct coming next week.
Honestly, if that one poorly made 'lol I hacked Youtube' leak wasn't so 'lol I hacked Youtube,' I'd totally believe the 10/30 date reported because tomorrow makes the most sense. They should want to get the word out sooner rather than later. It's not likely that'll happen now on such short notice, but that stock dip should've lit a fire under their pants.

Black Friday is right around the corner. There's no business sense in holding back any longer. Next week or bust.

In all fairness, as long as the games are announced/released before Black Friday, Nintendo should be fine. But it'd make more sense to announce them early November to give families time to budget stuff out.
Considering many American families begin Christmas shopping in October (my mom was asking me for ideas in August, for crying out loud), they're already late.

Chances are these unannounced titles might just be those Wii VC games (Skyward Sword, Other M, Epic Yarn, etc etc)

The only other game I see getting a surprise release this holiday is TPHD

I just realized Rhythm Tengoku: The Best+ has been out since June in Japan. That'd sure make a great surprise holiday release, right?

Well, a man can dream, anyway. :(

I don't think a remake would be made by the same team that's building a new Zelda game though. It actually makes sense considering they wanted to get a new Zelda game out for Wii U by the holiday season. A direct re-release wouldn't cut it.

I forgot about that game. Didn't they say something about releasing it here? I swear they did.

Edit: Guess I was wrong. Huh.

So you get games, from playing games?



For real though, this dea is going to save a lot of wallets.

Mom: Hm, I can't find this 'Disney Infinite Tea Rapunzel' action figure anywhere... Oh, there she is! Why didn't my little Tina tell me she's a Nintendo character? *chocks up one more sale for Zelda*



My Zelda-purchase headcanons are what get me through the day.

If Rosalina were more available, she'd probably top Zelda's sales figures strictly because she looks similar to Elsa.

That explains everything.

Okay, here's a fun idea to pass the time. If you could give a rating out of ten for the DLC characters we got so far, what number would you give them and why? I'd give them a solid 7/10, a pretty good selection so far. You got your solid returning veterans who adds their own style to the roster(Mewtwo and Lucas) with the addition of a well-implemented third-party icon like Ryu who ends up being very unique due to his Street Figher mechanics like his multiple normals based off how hard you press the A button in a direction and the SF inputs. Roy himself ended up being successfully Luigified, being less of a Marth clone than before, changes that please me.

Okay, I've played all of your submitted stages for the Spooky Mario Maker contest, right? I have 8 submissions. If I didn't play yours/upload it, please let me know asap. I think I've done them all.
