I need to know the prices.

Georgous. I want most of them even if I don't use them, lol.

I would like them and want to collect them all but a lack of game that uses them well and the fact that there is a 99% chance that there will be exclusive ones to certain events (e3, Tgs, PAX etc.) leaves me not wanting to start the collection

I don't understand the purpose of them at all. I don't see why anyone would buy them sense they seem to have no game purposes. Only maybe I can see people buying them to collect them. Perhaps they will be more useful/appealing in the future because right now there isn't much of reason to buy one.

I had more questions before watching the Bill Trennen video than I had before-

Can you use multiple characters at a time - does it have to sit in the game pad the whole time? There was a lot cool about the individuality of the characters ( upgrading etc) but it is difficult to understand how they will fit into games among other things - I think they do need "a game" dedicated to therm to get the ball rolling IMO

Pretty cool in my opinion. I will probably just get Ness and Villager.

Yeah that would be like the e-reader cards for SMB3 GBA (which didn't even come out in Europe) or the Kid Icarus AR cards (which you could just copy from the internet but still)...

I don't know if they would manufacture limited toys though.. But maybe

I kind of hate tchotchkes in general, and I absolutely loathe tchotchkes as glorified DLC (a la Skylanders). This seems a little more like a virtual pet than that, but it strikes me as really half baked unless they can implement them into lots of games and in a compelling fashion.

Don't like the paint work; think I'll be busting out my warhammer paints on these.

Not exactly what I expected. These are prototypes anyway but I don't think there's going to be much of a drastic change to them in the next few months.
