I must say that I'm excited for Mario Gold but I doubt you have a system in any of these games. Yoshi's New Island and Kirby being platformer's is more of what I already have from Nintendo.

The only new IP per say is Disney Magic World and I don't have high expectation for a game that's suppose to release in two months, we haven't heard anything about it.

The only games that can be "system-sellers" on 3DS at this point are more mature games and possibly better-quality indie games. Those are the main bases in terms of software aren't adaquately covered. I'm not sure why you're expecting multiple system-sellers for a system that has had generally good software support built up over almost 3 years.

As for Disney Magical World, I think you're underestimating the sheer number of kids that own a NIntendo 3DS and might buy this game. Promotion to the hardcore Nintendo fanbase arguably doesn't matter that much (and besides, we might hear more about it next month). 450K for a Disney-themed game in Japan alone is actually quite impressive when you consider how much less weight the name "Disney" carries. And don't forget that kids' games have good legs. I won't be surprised if this game legs out at 1M LT when it releases in all territories.

BTW: If Mario Golf follows the trend of most Mario spin-offs as of late, it will probably be very mediocre. I'm personally looking forward to KIrby.

Haven't they been reported to be unifying their teams a few months back? I hope we get more games out of this.

If there's nothing you're interested in, that's your taste but to say nintendo dropped the ball because you don't like these games, makes no sense.

Here's the games I want this year

Kirby Triple Deluxe
Conception II
Lego The Hobbit
Professor Layton vs. Ace Attorney
Shantae and the Pirate's Curse
Super Smash Bros.
Disney Magical World
Sonic Boom

Then there's the rumored ones. I do think we'll be getting Puzzle and Dragons by the end of this year. Persona, Harvest moon and Theatrhythm Curtain Call could  make it over before the end of the year as well. I think this will be a big year for the 3DS eshop games. I think people are underestimating Disney Magical World. It's not just a "kids" game but a mix of Animal Crossing/Rune Factory (battling aspect)/Harvest Moon (Farming). From gameplay I've seen I like that there's a quest system so it doesn't get a repetitive as Animal Crossing was sometimes. I'm hoping they will advertise it a little more in March because it really does look like a good game.  And they have time to advertise it. They didn't really heavily promote Bravely Default until the Demo release in Jan.

After Luigi's Mansion, Pokemon and Zelda, I was expecting a somewhat slower year. It would be hard for any company to keep that momentum. More people have a 3DS than a Wii U so I think 3DS SSB will unfortunately topple the Wii U in sales rather than make people want to get a Wii U. I do agree that Nintendo needs to maybe focus on having a little more variety in the kind of games they offer on the 3DS since RPG's are dominating right now. And maybe it's just me but I still have plenty of games to play through and a backlog of games from last year that I still need to purchase, so I'm not going through a game drought at all.

They finally start supporting their home console sensibly and people are bitching. Get over it. There are 43 million 3ds' out there. It'll be fine

3ds is dropping the ball tell that to japan

It's February. Nobody will buy games until June when people have money again. If you knew how economics worked, you would get this. But apparently, you're an idiot.

FYI, I only read the title.
