Why can't you guess? 

And which ones? ;)


I don't understand that language :(

And you like TP artstyle, with the Zelda HD experience graphics!

Me too!

Hrrmm, I like more of the cartoony style which is kind of like Zelda HD. Zelda HD has TP and Wind Waker mix but with more of a TP presence. I didn't really like WW the most but I love SS and these Zelda HD graphics: I like the two different styles mixed. :)



There is some 5 min footage for Mutant Mudds:

Nintendo Network might miss Wii U launch

As reported earlier, Nintendo is developing a service compatible with the 3DS and upcoming Wii U much like Xbox Live and PlayStation Network, called Nintendo Network, in which users will have individual and personal accounts with the possibility to download DLC and even full games, eventually. However, when this service will launch has yet to be determined, according to Nintendo head Satoru Iwata.

“We have not decided the concrete timing of when we will start it,” said Iwata. “The decision must be made by taking into consideration such factors as the relationship with the wholesalers and retailers, and the best way to be embraced by consumers.”

He added, “however, as an option for the future, the significance of this business field will increase.”

Suddenly, the possibility of the service not launching alongside the Wii U later this year becomes a very real scenario. Whenever Nintendo decides to launch it, however, it won’t be a moment too soon, that’s for sure.

 

Zombie Slayer Diox is coming to the eShop

UFO Interactive Games has announced that Zombie Slayer Diox is coming to the 3DS via the eShop. The game is a side-scrolling rhythm game set to be released in early 2012. You can find a trailer after the break that’ll help you understand more about the game.

 

 

Mr. Iwata's comments weren't on whether NN will be available at launch or not they were about downloadable games. Stuff like if I wanted Zelda HD I could buy it right off of my Wii U instead of going somewhere. He was saying that he wasn't sure when this will be available not the NN.

What I understand about the "timing" for the network is actually the opposite.

It will be ready for Wi U launch, but not for now with the 3DS, in case anyone was expecting soon.



Proud to be the first cool Nintendo fan ever

Number ONE Zelda fan in the Universe

DKCTF didn't move consoles

Prediction: No Zelda HD for Wii U, quietly moved to the succesor

Predictions for Nintendo NX and Mobile

I would still like it to be ready for the Wii U as well, when it launches. If they are going all out on this console It will help for it to be there. I think.

I actually hope they back out on this. I like my game boxes! XD



I don`t understand how someone might think that by Nintendo taking it`s time with the Nintendo Network it becomes a real possibility of it missing Wii U`s launch. If anything Nintendo will do it`s best to have it ready to launch with the console. If i`m not mistaken, Nintendo already regretted not having 3DS' online structure fully ready on 3DS' launch.
I`m pretty sure Nintendo WILL avoid that mistake with Wii U.

Well Iwata has said that they have learner there lessons on how to launch a new system. So if that is true, they will have plenty of launch games with some must haves, Internet, dlc, and a reasonable price. If they really did learn anything. Then they have to expect quality games from third parties and they need to court third parties and get them to come. Finally no more game droughts! Plus I think I saw some recent news saying it would be ready.

Nintendo also needs a little talk with Ubisoft.

You mean you haven't seen the lazy work that Ubisoft has pushed out for launch games lately? It's pretty bad...

What do you mean by ubisoft? What have they to offer Nintendo. Do they not work together anymore?
