I'm pretty sure I'm in the minority, but to this day I still think the Gamecube controller is easily Nintendo's best and most comfortable, and ranks a close third of all time when it comes to controllers, next to the Playstation Dualshock and the Xbox 360's controller. Those are my three favorite controllers, and I doubt anything will change that.


I agree with you, I also believe the GCN controller to be the best out of all Nintendo's controllers.


For me my top 5 are

#1: Dualshock Controller PS2/PS3
#2: GCN Controller
#3: Super Nintendo Controller
#4: Xbox360 Controller
#5: N64 Controller

Well the thing is that t he gamecube controller kinda sucked for FPS, but was absolutely boss for everything else, and since I'm not a huge fan of FPS for the most part and I certainly don't play nintendo games for their shooters...well, I'm sure you know how that ended up.  

1 - Dualshock (PS1, PS2, PS3)
2 - Xbox 360 Wireless
3 - Gamecube
4 - SNES
5 - NES
6 - Sega Genesis
7 - Wii
8 - Xbox
9 - N64

I really don't like the Xbox and N64 controllers, part of the reason I plain and simply hate those systems. 



My Console Library:

PS5, Switch, XSX

PS4, PS3, PS2, PS1, WiiU, Wii, GCN, N64 SNES, XBO, 360

3DS, DS, GBA, Vita, PSP, Android

Alright... I am going to guess that very few people have picked up the great Mario tennis open WW. Because I sat on waiting for a game for 20 minutes.

Also the game is great! Why such mediocre scores?


This is what I've heard from reviews. Are these valid complaints?

1. Little content outside of multiplayer

2. No RPG Mode

3. Limited customization or character specific traits

4. Accessibility at the expense of depth

5. Inferior online to other 3DS games such as Mario Kart 7 and Kid Icarus: Uprising



Love and tolerate.

But can we see the other two event as well??


According to the site, yes!
They do say "Join us right here as we broadcast live"

oooh thats gonna be so great =D


You bet! I`m really excited about this E3. I feel great things are coming! :D



New heroes of Ruin screenshots. Tragedy scores apart, I really think this might be my first western 3DS game, other than the LEGO games.
Not going to make in my next batch (always buy in 3), but I think the batch after that has a place for it.


The game looks pretty good in some parts. This is going to be the first dungeon crawler RPG I'll play, so I'm expecting it to be good. It also has lots of content from what has been revealed.

I'm really looking forward to July as it's going to be a very big month. Theatrhythm FF, Heroes of Ruin, and Kingdom Hearts all in one month! Though I haven't decided which to buy, Theatrhythm FF or Rhythm Theif. Might just go with Theatrhythm since it also has DLC and it has some pretty amazing songs.

What's going on with Rayman Origins release date?

Gamestop lists the title with a Dec. 31st release
Gamefly changed the date to TBD
Best Buy has yanked the 'New' listing completely

I think this game has another chance of getting delayed. After the high negative feedback from the demo, I can see why.

Maybe one of the crazist rumors you'll hear... it seems that the Wii U is using... wait for it... Blu-ray! And that the disc might be 50GB large!

- Third-parties studios are currently receiving Wii U "Blu-ray" readers, writers, and discs
- demos at E3 are to be on discs, as per Nintendo's requests
- there was a delay in the shipping of this equipment, which had devs waiting a few weeks
- they didn't came with the latest dev kits
- the latest dev kits still have the disc drive separate
- No confirmation nor denial of 50GB discs capacity
- Wii U units at E3 2012 will include optical drives
- Wii U games were developed on dev kits linked to a host pc (running the SDK, the development tools, etc.)
- it's possible the access/loading times were emulated
- Wii U dev kit sizes have stayed mostly the same during development
- future dev kit versions may have the disc drive included in the hardware

I think I'll buy both... Final Fantasy for pure nostalgia, and Rhythm Thief because I believe this can be very similar -charming - to professor Layton

Speaking of Layton (kinda) I had nothing to do so I popped the first case (Lost Turnabout) of Ace Attorney - Justice for All... and boy how can a game that you mostly press the same button over and over can be this good? Writing, characters, music (wow at the "tense" theme)...

I don't want only Layton vs Ace Attorney... I want Ace Attorney 5 too!



Also, Toys R Us has it for December 31st.

Target has it for the June 5th release oddly.
