Super mario galaxy 2 well be the first downloadable wii game follow by Punch Out and Metroid trilogy. Each game well be price for 9.99 (it best for business) for the first week before going to it regular price of 19.99. That a good deal giving how rare a disc copy of metroid trilogy is.

The Wii games sound awesome.
The thing I'm impressed with is that you can finally play as Donkey Kong again in a Mario Party game. I was always depressed with that.
EDIT: Monster Games is doing the Xenoblade Chronicles port, which is what they did with Donkey Kong Country Returns. They know what they are doing.

I kind of consider having Tingle in Hyrule Warriors but not Skull Kid the equivalent of Nintendo slapping us with their dick and I don't even dislike Tingle.
I mean, yeah, somebody's getting an outfit of him - I'd assume Link - but still, much rather play as him than Tingle, whose clips in the trailer even just don't look fun. Good with Young Link, though. Then there are what seem to be OoT Sheik and OoT Impa outfits; could see the Impa one but much prefer the HW Sheik design. Like the one case where I think the game improved on someone's design honestly.

• Is Pokemon Shuffle just Candy Crush, including the "freemium" stuff? That feels gross. Nintendo should know better than to stick their dick into freemium. • Super Mario Galaxy 2 before Super Mario Galaxy 1? Weird. At least everyone can now play Punch Out Wii. • That man looks very red. • So Amiibos can't hold data for both SSB and Mario Party 10. I wasn't going to play MP10 anyway. Sucks for anyone that wants to use their amiibo for both. • None of those series 4 amiibos interest me. Plus they're probably already sold out in pre-orders. • Splatoon gets me interested the more I see of it. • Tingle's cool impa dance needs to be a gif like yesterday. Still no Groose in Hyrule Warriors, everyone knows Groose is the 4th piece of the TriForce. • Mario vs Donkey Kong Tipping Stars looks neat. I liked the tipping map creators system. Also being able to play between both 3DS and WiiU is a nice touch. • HARADA!!! • Blek looks like Dots. Not a bad thing. • Citizens of Earth looks ok. I don't like the art style. • GUNMAN CLIVE 2! f*** YEAH!!! • As someone who owns a New 3DS XL, I can't recommend it enough. Weird that they didn't announce regular 3DS models with the changeable face plates. • OOOOOOOOH I WANT DAT MAJORAS MASK 3DS!!!

If you did not buy Punchout for the Wii buy it now. Its amazing. I'm thinking about it and the Prime collection. I'd get Galaxy 2 despite having my copy still if they'd added Gamepad controls but it seems like they made the stupid decision of having their initial roll-out be exclusively made up of games that don't support that.

• Happy to see Super Mario Galaxy 2 coming to the Wii U. I really don't understand why people HATE that game. I thought it was better then Galaxy one but people will argue that for days. I've always wanted to get Metroid Prime Trilogy because I've honestly have never played the Prime games, there was just no way I was going to drop $75 for it. I'll be getting this as soon as it comes out.
•The more I look at Splatoon, the more I get a Jet Grind Radio vibe from it. It's looking better and better each time a new trailer comes out for it and I'm glad people are giving it the hype it deserves. I was sold on Splatoon since day one because holy crap we're finally getting a new Nintendo IP. However, everyone else hated it at first. Now it looks like more and more people are turning around and are liking Splatoon, so I'm very happy it's getting love now.
•I'd be more excited about the amiibos if they were not released and then discontinued 2 weeks later. It only makes it the more frustrating how much they talk about amiibos and how much support they have behind them and then the keep discontinuing waves of them. They feel more like a rarity (not that Rarity) item then anything, much like what beanie babies were in the 90s.
•Hyrule Warriors... IT'S TINGLE'S TIME DAMN IT! Still would rather have Skull Kid but Tingle looks so outrageous it's amazing Also Groose getting snuffed again but meh Majora's Mask DLC. It's nice for the game for how pretty much everything comes from OOT, Twilight Princess, and Skyward Sword to get some Majora's Mask reputation.
•I would LOVE to have that Majora's Mask NEW 3DS but there's no way in hell I'm paying $200 for it. Especially if the game is not included with it and there's really no games only for the NEW 3DS worth buying the system for until maybe Xenoblade in April. I'll stick with my ALBW gold 3DS XL until I have a reason to pay that much for a New 3DS.
•I thought MM3D was not going to come out until April or May so having it come out a month from now is a very nice surprise.
•Speaking of Xenoblade, Xenoblade Chronicles X looks like it could be GOTY worthy. That's the kind of big time game the Wii U could have used a few years ago.
•New Fire Emblem I'm excited about seeing how amazing Awakening was. I still wish they would do a new Advance Wars under the Awakening engine but I don't think there's going to be a new Advance Wars game as long as Fire Emblem is making fat cash.

• Happy to see Super Mario Galaxy 2 coming to the Wii U. I really don't understand why people HATE that game. I thought it was better then Galaxy one but people will argue that for days. I can kind of see it, since a lot of it is a pretty blatant rehash of the first game which while the mission statement for the NSMB games is to make those as one-note and interchangeable as possible is an oddity for the 3D games - only other one you can really accuse of that is 3D World and even then it hadn't come out yet and it feels more different from 3D Land than Galaxy 2 does from Galaxy 1. I do prefer the second one, I think its new spins on the first game are for the better, its new power-ups are better thought out, and the random nostalgia stuff it has is done well, but it does also have a certain lack of ideas by comparison and there are large parts of it lifted directly from the original. Like so many throwbacks it does kind of go from homage to laziness at parts.

Posting this to simply ask...
Why does Marth speak English now in everything else BUT Smash? They couldn't have updated that too?

Goddamn it, I have no interest in Project STEAM at all but the fact that you can play as Lucina has me kind of obligated to get it. Anyway, Smash Bros. voices in general are really lazy and often recycled, though I like Marth being Japanese as just a quirk of the character. Though I don't get why that's the case but Fox and Falco have drastically different voices in each game.

So with the Wii being on the VC that means we can have more slow maddening drips of games to come out on the VC while we wait for something truely amazing that's being held back to come out.

I don't at all understand Nintendo's strategy with the Virtual Console this generation. In theory I guess the idea is that if you just put out one thing a week people will buy all of it, but somebody isn't going to decide, "Huh, shit, no Donkey Kong Country still, guess I'll get the Super Mario World re-release even though I have the original."

I understand the idea of not just throwing your whole catalog out there at once in order to get people to notice games as they come in but yeah its been brutal. I think they think that people already got what they wanted on the Wii so you're not rerelease to much of a new audience on the Wii U but this strategy is stupid. Release imports and new interesting things. Hell if I had my way they'd patch up Starfox 2 or release Mother at a bare minimum of interesting quirky things to do with the VC. I'd buy Starfox2 for the hell of it at 10 bucks or what ever tax they want to put on it

Mother 3 I get it, they'd have to translate it or at least license out that fan translation, not worth the trouble, but the original Mother does have an official translation, they just never released it.

So, the price of the New 3DS XL in Canada is $229.99, a $30 premium over the US price.
Also, while I understand that most people that are going to buy it are probably upgrading, so they wouldn't need another power adapter. But not packing in a power adapter is still insane.
