Really wasn't expecting Mario and Sonic at the Sochi Olympic Winter Games or Sonic: Lost World (!!!), so those were good to see. Definitely looking forward to the latter title. :3

All this pretty much confirms that Sonic is back in Smash Bros. 3, which is awesome!

Also, calling it now. I claim the thread for the E3 Nintendo Direct!


You are a Sonic fan too?!?

You seriously didn't know Smeags was a Sonic fan?

Don't let his momentary infatuation with Tharja's ass fool you. His one true love is Knuckles the Echidna.



Monster Hunter: pissing me off since 2010.

Short, but sweet!

Pikmin 3 looks wonderful. The deal over the Sonic franchise is interesting... Actually, the portuguese Nintendo site is quoting Laurent Fischer, talking about Sonic games, not just a game. Great! Haven`t played one since Sonic Rush.
Finally a date for Luigi U (buying retail version!).

Was cool to see that Sunshine level during the Dream Events in M&S.

They had a mario Sunshine level? I missed it.

If you watch the video again you`ll see it when there`s that hockey game part, when Iwata mentioned the Dream Events.

I just "met" the gentleman a few days ago on here when we became friends.

Mixed feelings about it. Mario and Sonic Winter games thing looks okay, but I thinkt the last Nintendo Direct which was astounding made my expectations for this one a bit too high. I think the one they are going to show around about e3 is the one that I thought this one was going to be. I'm tentatively excited about the new sonic though. I can't simple say I'm outright excited though as sonic games are so hit and miss these days. If it's as good as Sonic Colours though I'm in.
As a collector the boxed version of the NSMBWU DLC was a pleasant surprise.

Timing for TW101 is not ideal, it comes in direct competition with Splinter Cell and Rayman.

Really doesn't seem like there was a good place to put it, unless it's already gold and they're just sitting on it, then they're just stupid, but if Q3 really was their only option, it's kind of screwed either way (mostly due to the Pikmin proximity moreso than the two you mentioned)

It'd be funny if Wonderful 101 is being positioned to kill Rayman's sales. Thanks Ubi Soft.

How about DKCR 3D? When was that coming? End of this month?

It's out in just over a week. Already some reviews up: http://www.metacritic.com/game/3ds/donkey-kong-country-returns-3d/critic-reviews


Not too shabby. It is for the 3DS though, so this is expected. Just another game to keep the momentum going. right Pezy old boy?

There is a negative momentum in NA currently, so I guess...not

Are you saying that more people in NA are returning their 3DS to cancel the original sale than new people buying it? How else could you achieve negative momentum?

That was OK.

Really interested in this new Sonic flagship series title, especially since we were teased with only a single piece of concept art.

I've never been into the Mario & Sonic Olympic series, but the gameplay footage looked good.

The Best Buy partnership is interesting. I wonder if it's the result of (or the cause of) Nintendo's unfriendly relationship with Amazon.
