Did I say something wrong?
I'm trying to decipher what the gif is telling me.
I just can't believe that people would flip shit over that...

I made two quesadillas to get me through these hard times.
MY DINNER IS READY, REGGIE, DO YOU HEAR ME??
MY DINNER IS READY, REGGIE, DO YOU HEAR ME??
Yeah. I mean, it's ok. It's not poorly made or anything, and I can see it having an audience, but it's not the next mario. Far from it. *shrugs*
So.. after this, we're in the home stretch. Aside from odd leaks here or there about some smallish things, this is it.
It was about a month before E3 last year when the leaks really began in earnest. But something tells me that things are going to be quite a bit tighter this time around.
At least it finally feels close.

Oh yes. My friend's phone got thrown in disgust by a dude because he didn't have AB on it. That dude was promptly beat up.

No, those are the only new ones listed from their previously updated list.
They're releasing more games than just that.

Only game I've grown any attachment to is a puzzle bobble rip-off.

I'd prefer the minimalist style that Miis have had from the beginning but with more choices for hair, glasses etc. Miis have a great deal more character than the Mii-too (lol) clones that Sony and Microsoft have adopted imo. They wouldn't have the same sort of appeal with proper arms and legs for example lol. Unless that's just Mii (okay, I'll stop now lololol)..?

So whats going on?
No price details? Not surprised.
Still sticking with my predictions: they're following the Wii model:
- price and launch date announced in September
- preordering camping in October
- launch in November.
Can't say I'm thrilled, but I can live with it.

They probably haven't finalized the pricing and won't for a long timeeee.
Same here. Way more relaxed. Folks seem a bit tense over there.
And physical media 4 lyfe, Iwata!

What's that?
Really wish I'd gotten beer now, make my own fun since this looks to be pretty flat in terms of news.
Instead I got this here Aloe drink, pretty tasty.

For Chrome though.

Downloadable from store kiosks is kinda meh, but at the very least the shops can do targeted advertisement, and you can buy a game at their shop for download then and there, and maybe it downloads as you walk through the mall and is ready to play when you finally get your food at burger shack.
also: I spit at you, Nintendo, for planning the same price for retail versus downloadable. I mean, come on, your cost of reproduction and shipping and handling is reduced by at least several dollars!
edit: Ah, not Nintendo making that policy, they're going laissez-faire on that

lol the very idea of downloading a game at a retail store sounds so ridiculous to me. Defeats the whole purpose. That's just one option right?

Has to be.
I mean, you can't very well carry your Wii U to a store and download a game.

Good news.
Means it won't just be WiiUSports.

Existing Wii Sports, I think. It won't just be Wii Sports 3, it will be something uniquely suited to the Wii U's functionality.

Woohoo, Wii U focus on social game play!
edit: This is the megaton for me. I need Nintendo to keep social gaming alive in the living room, because nobody else cares about it anymore. :|

Yup, this pretty much confirms some of my theories on what Nintendo is going to do.

hahaha first time I seen David Gibson add some snark in his translation. It's true though. Nintendo is mad late on the digital front.

The whole "Project Cafe" codename had me thinking they were going to capitalize on this since the beginning. They should have hammered this at E3 2011. Social gaming and networking is huge right now, best time to really capture that market in a affordable home console. Their online component should also give weight to this, and I'm still sticking to a similar idea of Mii Crossing-stuff for the core OS.

Nintendo offers full game downloads since years ago too, just not the retail ones :3
Can't argue with that.
Nintendo are very slow to adapt in a lot of areas.
Mirrors Satterfield's comments. Guess they're courting western third parties hard. Makes sense, that was their big weakness with Wii.

This guy is making everything sound a little off, and I don't mean the translation. :/

it's a good game, a bitch to play on the bus though.
