It means Miyamoto ain't taking anymore ****. He doesn't want to be the circus clown trying to make his audience laugh just to "be entertained".
Oh okay I do agree about the part people take games for granted everyone just wants nintendo to put their stuff on mobile devices which has to be annoying.

Shigeru Miyamoto on casual gamers: "It's kind of a passive attitude they're taking, and to me it's kind of a pathetic thing."
What does this even mean?
It means Miyamoto was not entertained when he went to Disneyland...

For real, though, his comments give me even more hope for the future of Nintendo and the Wii U. I bought my Wii U on day one and have never regretted it, but it's always nice to see one of the big bosses saying that the games are being designed for people who actively play videogames as a pastime, rather than a more casual crowd that might only play Wii Music or some such title.

As for the influence on Smash, I wonder if this is part of why Sakurai has been focusing more time and attention on balance? Given that's balance is a concept that is appreciates more by the "core gamer" crowd, it's possible if Nintendo really is trying to cater to such an audience.

Just beat KH2's Sephiroth on my second try.

Sure beats the five hundred tries it took on my first playthrough.

"Among the broad range of topics discussed with Miyamoto, the famed games developer explains how Splatoon was nearly a Mario title, why he believes Nintendo should not abandon hardware, as well as expanding on previous comments made at E3 regarding what he perceives as "creative immaturity" within the development sector."

Wat? Is this supposed to mean that Splatoon originally was going to be a Mario game or am I missing something? Okay, I came across this interview that I must have missed, but I'd love to know more on the subject. And what is this "creative immaturity"? Hmm...

I AM SO ****ING PSYCHED EVERYONE!!! After trading in my Kindle Fire and a crap ton of games and movies at Entertainmart followed by selling my PS3 and Wii at Gamestop I FINALLY GOT A HOLD OF THE WII U. This was not going to happen any other way due to finances, but I really couldn't be happier. The GamePad is way awesome, and I got Monster Hunter 3, Assassins Creed 3, AND I reserved my copy of Smash Bros. I AM SO ****ING READY FOR THIS. MY BODY IS READY Y'ALL!!! Woo!

Sounds like they gave up on the Just Dance/Wii Party/Only play games when friends are over crowd.

Thank goodness Splatoon is a new IP, I probably would have brushed it off as "Another Mario Sports Game"
But I need to see games, this Rock Em' Sock Em' Robot bull**** he showed at E3 isn't my definition of a core game.

OMG.... I'm so happy
It's like he has been reading my Primates eHarmony page...
He knows how i feel

Hrmm. Well that's interesting to say the least.

Shoulda got something besides AC3, really. Unless the Wii-U version is somehow better and less glitchy.

Interesting that Meta Knight-hat Kirby doesn't have green eyes like they were in Brawl (I never understood why they did that in the first place anyway).

Also, just bought me the Mario Kart 8 DLC bundle preorder. Can't wait for 3 months for the first batch (BUT WHY DO HAVE TO WAIT 9 MONTHS TO HAVE THE SECOND BATCH???).

They need time to prepare the awesomeness that is Dry Bowser.
But hey, in the meantime, at least you'll have Link + some new tracks and karts.

If you're talking about the DLC, just go to the shop and download it.
For the actual update to the game with the fancy on-screen map and stats, that downloads automatically, or at least it should.

I don't know where to ask this, but I have a problem in the Group section. I can't view any thread on it.
It says: "Smashboards - Error; You do not have permission to view this page or perform this action."

What's the problem? :3

Does anyone have a render of this so I can use it in a collage? I kept on trying to cut out the excess, but I'm not very skilled with photoshopping.
