I was thinking, the Mario amiibo line has now covered most of the characters that appear in each spin-off but there's the exception of Bowser Jr. I was wondering if they expand the line to include him, what other characters would be included in this wave 3.

Suggestions
-Baby Mario
-Baby Luigi
-Any of the other babies
-Birdo (gotta have the LGBT representation these days)
-Petey Pirahna
-Dr Mario
-Toadette
-Koopalings
-Other enemies

To pick another 6 my choices would be

-Bowser Jr
-Birdo
-Toadette
-Baby Mario
-Baby Luigi
-Shy Guy
Mario Sports: Super Stars has a menu called "Amiibo cards", so we might just get the entire roster as cards.
Hint: I want them aaaaaaalll

Amiibo fever hit me hard yesterday, between this, Super Mario wave 2 and Zelda (I already have one Link, ergo, I need them all)

I'm starting to think some gamers are allergic to spin-off's. (Unless you're Mario Kart or Hyrule Warriors)
I'm allergic to Hyrule Warriors for information.

I thought that PIKMIN was just a spin-off, whereas there was going to be a Pikmin 4 on NX. Obviously, they're attempting to expand the series out.

Anyways, just today learned that sadly, Regular Show (my favorite show along with One Piece) was cancelled. I wanted it to go on for several more seasons.

Down on the corner, out in the street.
A new article from the WSJ came out discussing the NX.

The only new things I could pick up from it was that the reveal of the NX may come around the time of TGS (September 15-18), or at least a little bit before it.


On the topic of the NX, Emily Rogers made her last post about the NX.

Honestly, at this point, whenever I read 'It's just a rumour, take it with a grain of salt", I keep thinking she only says that so if what she says comes to pass she can say 'I told you so' and if it doesn't, she'll just say 'It was just a rumour anyway...'

I want this thing to be revealed already x_x

Wait, Regular Show was cancelled? What happened?

Nintendo in their minds: "Alright, we get it, you don't want this game and that's fine, we'll just throw away everything we did up until now away then. Oh, and now that we don't have to finish it anymore, we can magically make Pikmin 4 appear, ta-dah!"
I wonder if it ever occurred to them that this spinoff is probably being made by a completely different team than the ones behind the main Pikmin games.

In other news:


Metroid Prime: Hunters, done.
Turn to Metroid Prime 2: Echoes!


Not a bad game, especially for its terrific multiplayer mode, but not a great game either, with a boring solo due to a lackluster level design, repetitive bestiary, and fighting the same 2 bosses 4 ******* times (though the final boss is an interesting concept and less annoying to fight).
That's what happens when you put most of your efforts on graphics and gameplay ideas at the expense of the rest in a game for such a limited hardware as the DS.

For short, not a Metroid game I intend to 100%.

Playing to Echoes for the fourth time will be a breath of fresh air after that.

The background was pretty cool to see. They did really well with the whole episode plot and fight scenes. It's coming along nicely and I look forward to the conclusion. Thought they were looking to get chespin.

And Steven Aides Serena and Mallon's group. It says that as they arrive at the labs, a powerful aide appears to help them. There are also 3 more episodes left for it. And Clembot could certainly be killed. That be surprising though. It was neat to see Team Rocket take on a different and more backseat, but helpful role for this episode to.
Steven is aiding Serena's group? That's cool. He'll probably be a huge asset to them since he's already explored the place before (in addition to Mairin). If he will wreck the Lysandre Labs with his Mega Metagross once they fetch Chespin, that would be neat, though I can imagine him sweeping Mable and Celosia with ease. I'd also like to see him return to Lumiose to see Lysandre's arrest/demise.

As for the remaining 3 episodes, my prediction is that next week will be Clemont vs Xerosic and more of Ash and Alain vs Lysandre (as well as Serena, Mairin, Sycamore, and Steven vs Mable, Celosia, and a swarm of Team Flare grunts), while the following week will feature the conclusion of Ash, Alain, and Lysandre's battle and something else to do with Zygarde. The final episode will probably be an aftermath episode showing Lumiose City recovering from the damage, all of Team Flare being arrested, and Zygarde turning into 100% Forme to restore the area (could be the second time it transforms into it depending on whether or not Team Flare decides to force the transformation at some point to escalate the destruction to other parts of the region).

I'm 90% sure that this is not a serious petition.

I mean, what the heck is this part even.
FURTHERMORE, this petition is to force Nintendo to formally accept a fan game, Pikmin: The Testament of Fortitude's Error (I haven't finished the title yet) as a token of good faith forVICIOUSLY RUINING and CENSORING OUR CHILDHOODS(Including, but not limited to, mine.)

Meet all of these demands and I'll stop my "spirited correspondence" to your twitter accounts and email when my mother lets me use the internet.

That petition is my favorite now because it makes fun of all the previous ones, including censorship whining.

Honestly petitions like these really piss me off. I could understand the backlash behind Federation Force but why are people losing their **** on this? It makes me really upset because fans of series like F-Zero, Advance Wars, and Golden Sun just badly want a new installment to their series after being gone for so long while fans of series that are still going on like Metroid and Pikmin have to lose their minds whenever a spinoff game for their series is announced.

It's satire of the Federation Force backlash.

I say go for it if you want it.

I miss out on so many major events when the WWE was in Houston (like last Monday Night)
Like I said before dude. Tickets are going to sell before I can blink and I don't have the money for it.

Didn't see that but there's some people that hate this game for no reason other than it's a Pikmin spinoff game which rubs me the wrong way.

What kind of person just leave a prank and not even bother to stick around to see someone fall for it? That's cruel AND stupid.

He's pissed there was no NX port.
Project 2017 is moving to the NX. It's Mania that isn't getting ported.

I am like 90% certain that Mania is getting ported to NX. The trailer wasn't made by sega I'm pretty sure, so they probably didn't know if it was actually coming to NX while they made the trailer.

Any BlazBlue fans here? Looks like there's bad news. The upcoming release of Centralfiction in the West won't be getting an English dub upon the release. This is is because dubbing the entire game would lead to a 6 to 8 month delay according to Aksys Games, and they wanted to release the upcoming title earlier for once. You can read more about it below.

http://www.animenewsnetwork.com/new...iction-game-will-not-have-english-dub/.105970

I don't know how to feel about this. On one hand, it's great to see that Aksys Games cares about reducing that usual long wait for the localized release of the BlazBlue games. On the other hand, BlazBlue has one of my favorite English dubs of any video game; Patrick Seitz as Ragna, Christina Valenzuela as Noel, David Vincent as Jin, Julie Ann Taylor as Tsubaki and Kokonoe, Grant George as Kagura, and Mela Lee as Rachel are among the ones I enjoy (and I was looking forward to seeing who would voice Naoto for the dub). It's going to feel awkward to not hear them for this upcoming release upon experiencing story mode. Perhaps there will be an English Dub for the Extend release? That's the only way I can see the dub caste coming back at this point.

I don't really understand why, all I know is that the next season is the last.

There's a ton of YouTube videos on it.
Dang, that's to bad. RS was still good as a show, and they left last season on a cliff hanger so I'm surprised it's going to be cancelled. They may still renew it though. There are several CN shows without renewels atm. One of which is Steven Universe which is arguably their biggest show atm. So we will have o wait and see.

Steven is aiding Serena's group? That's cool. He'll probably be a huge asset to them since he's already explored the place before (in addition to Mairin). If he will wreck the Lysandre Labs with his Mega Metagross once they fetch Chespin, that would be neat, though I can imagine him sweeping Mable and Celosia with ease.

Yeah the episode description says he's there. I could see him destroy the labs. I also think they'll end the episode with them returning to Luminous and TR either covering the event more or revealing themselves and fighting. Probably reporting though from the looks of it, which makes me wonder how Giovanni will act. It be a crazy twist if TR retires and become reporters after being famous for showing the world the truth. Especially since it be like a Malva situation. That probably won't happen though.

I have a feeling that the last two episodes where feature perfect zygarde laying seize to the city. Then everyone regroups and fights it off. I could definitely see him repairing the ecosystem after that though. The last few episodes are looking good though.

If they're doing another demo, I really hope they learn from their mistake with ORAS.

That's a bit awkward, since the series has had an established dub for a long time now.

Not a deal breaker and I understand why, but it is certainly a headscratcher.

Beats me finding 5 dollars on the ground lol.
That was me two months earlier. I'm like a lost money magnet.

I sure hope so... that was always a game with a good dub.

In our opinions, is delaying a game worth localization?

I'm kind of hoping the new Pikmin game has a new Pikmin type.

Extra points if it's Pikpik Carrot (which is controllable in Pikmin 2 via hacking):
