I haven't played DKCR yet, so the 3DS version is good news for me.
Ongoing bet with think-man: He wins if MH4 releases in any shape or form on PSV in 2013, I win if it doesn't.

Oh great, Nintendo. Cram *more* stuff into the end of the year.
I may have a job now, but i am trying to save some money here...

Monster Hunter: pissing me off since 2010.
On a side note, this being a sales website, does anyone think any of those new games announced could significantly push sales in any region? Mario & Luigi seems pretty popular, but it doesn't strike me as a system-seller. Donkey Kong would if it was new.
Not the the 3DS needs it, I'm not trying to be negative, just wondering how everyone thinks this will impact hardware sales. I think the combined weight of the now impressive summer line-up should be very good for 3DS -- add those two games plus Mario Golf to Animal Crossing and Project X Zone.

actually we still dont wat nintendo (3ds) got in store for us in the final 4 months of the year! only pokemon is known! (dkc3d) There should be at least one or two more suprises!

| Asriel said: Looking at the over-all line-up for 3DS in Europe, it's a far better, more consistent, more varied (despite more Mario branded titles being announced) than we've had yet in Europe. April: Fire Emblem: Awakening. June: Animal Crossing: New Leaf "Summer"(July, August, September?): Project X Zone, Etrian Odyssey IV, DKCR: 3D, Mario Golf, Mario & Luigi. There are 7 definite buys, and 5 maybe-buys on that list for me. Considering that's 8 months of content, with more eShop stuff to come, possibly more third party titles and localisations, plus E3 for announcements, and November/December left clear for more content, I don't see why any reasonable person is disappointed. 3DS finally has a consistent, quality release schedule in the West. This will drive higher sales of hardware and software, which should result in more support and more localisations for the system. Nintendo haven't even touched franchises like Kirby, Metroid, Zelda (a new title), Advance Wars, Golden Sun yet. They haven't confirmed what Monolith Soft are doing for 3DS. Games like Bravely Default and Fantasy Life may yet get localised; with so much first party content, Nintendo might be holding off on those for 2014, to give them breathing space to push out more software. And Smash Brothers is still waiting in the future.
How was this a bad day for 3DS owners? Wii U needs more work, sure, but Nintendo gave Wii U the limelight in their last Direct. It's foolish to assume they're suddenly going to make more noise about the system just yet. Wii U needs work, sure, but that takes time. I swear Nintendo can't win with their fans, and this comes from someone who was pretty disappointed with 3DS last year and hasn't bought a Wii U yet. |
November: Zelda 3DS
:(
Proud to be the first cool Nintendo fan ever
Number ONE Zelda fan in the Universe
Prediction: No Zelda HD for Wii U, quietly moved to the succesor
Predictions for Nintendo NX and Mobile

Atto Suggests...:
Book - Malazan Book of the Fallen series
Game - Metro Last Light
TV - Deadwood
Music - Forest Swords
Just watched the whole thing. Not too bad at all!
Dragged a lot in the second half, but the first half (particularly with Miyamoto talking about Luigi's Mansion) was nice. Liked the new Lego City footage they showed as well.
As a person who doesn't own 3DS or Wii U, but plans to get them both in the future, I have to sum up the ND this way.
3DS - solid. Nothing really flashy for me, but this is without any doubt enough to keep people interested in the console and will secure its first place in HW sales in 2013. The special offer that gives us Mario Land 3D for free if we buy a 3DS XL and one of those games almost convinced me to get it, but I managed to control myself and I'll just wait until they redesign the console.
Wii U - so far, so bad. I haven't seen anything that can turn the current situation around for this console. Unless people go crazy about MH3U (which I kinda doubt considering it's such an old port and there is MH4 coming soon), I can see the gap between Wii U and Vita widen until the end of September.
Wii U is a GCN 2 - I called it months before the release!
My Vita to-buy list: The Walking Dead, Persona 4 Golden, Need for Speed: Most Wanted, TearAway, Ys: Memories of Celceta, Muramasa: The Demon Blade, History: Legends of War, FIFA 13, Final Fantasy HD X, X-2, Worms Revolution Extreme, The Amazing Spiderman, Batman: Arkham Origins Blackgate - too many no-gaemz :/
My consoles: PS2 Slim, PS3 Slim 320 GB, PSV 32 GB, Wii, DSi.
