Is that black smoke meaningful? I don't recall it from MH3. Could it be some sort of force possessing and resurrecting creatures or something?

That's how to gouge them Nintendo. Make people suckle from Iwatas teat.

He's a pretty swell guy in my books anyway.
They basically just need to get their Q2 announcements out.

I don't understand why this needed to be separate from last week though.

That Nameko Multiplies game looked a lot like Zoo Keeper and is also mae by Success, is the original phone game also by Success?

It's a new virus mechanic. It makes monsters more aggressive while you can also be infected giving you buffs and nerfs I think.
 
Rather disappointing showing although SMT and MH looked great. Yokai Watch looked like Dragon Quest Monsters x SMT from what I can tell.

Definitely looking forward to the Oracle games but Nintendo's teasing about Zelda has gotten unbearable :(
 
Wait, wait, wait..

So, is this an adhoc party type deal or a special 'Monster Hunter' routing tool for WiiU?
Could I use a Japanese WiiU and routing tool with UK 3DS and Monster Hunter? I hope so.

When Tingle popped up I was all like OMG MAJORA'S MASK 3DS!!!!!! But then it was the oracle games... I mean, still a good anouncement, but my feelings were toyed with :(
 
ORACLE GAMES?!

If these don't come to Europe and America day and date, I will cry foul play sir! Only Zelda games I've not played. Did they state whether they'd have the connectivity built in?

Khezu!

I think there were three new monsters in that trailer. The serpent at the start, the cave lobsters, then the flying Lagiacrus thing at the end.

Wants the largest console games publisher to avoid Nintendo's platforms.
20:27 Users have wanted to play Monster Hunter Tri 3G online, enabled through the Wii U today. Downloadable packet relay tool requires a special LAN adapter for the Wii U, limited to 1P per Wii U, for up to 4 players.
Isn't that the standard USB LAN adapter?

Why would you expect Advance Wars in a 3rd party designated presentation?

Well, Tomodashi wasn't so third party, right? The two Oracles (although IIRC they were developped by Capcom) aren't exactly full third-party either. The next AW could have the same treatment. So yes, fuck logic indeed, it's not like these things always stick to the plan anyway.

Tell me about it! I was just refreshing Cheesemeister's Twitter feed and read Miracle Mask Plus as Majora's Mask Plus:(

I think thet he did saay that aye

He did mention *something* that sounded like linking up, but I could see how that might be referring to the discount for making a linked purchase of both titles; the screengrab for that came up very shortly afterwards. Cheesemeister may be able to elaborate?

Capcom makes a decision about a Capcom game that has been out over a year. Nintendo gets blamed. Fascinating
