To be fair, SM3DW was release on Nov. 22nd and had about only a week in sales.

Iit's also released on a single console that has been in the market for a year with a Much smaller installed base than both ps3/360

Not only work but it would definitely benefit from the 3D visuals.

Really great franchise, I hope that they keep that level of quality and replayability in the new season.

I am a gamer 1st and a Nintendo fan 2nd; to me, Nintendo Direct represents a special event that conducts news, reveals and updates about a collection of my favorite franchises, software and hardware with a Personal touch and unique "Nintendo-esque" flavor. Do I believe that it can turn anti-Nintendo gamers into believers, I don't think so and frankly, I believe nothing will, even if they turn Zelda into an online multiplayer futuristic military shooter!!
It doesn't e...

I really can't stress enough how much I am impressed with this game and how fun it's; to put it lightly, Nintendo have outdone themselves with this game and it'll be exceedingly difficult for them to top this one. I honestly don't know how they keep this level of quality in Mario games where they don't have much space to push the envelope like using movie-like stories and scripts, celebrity voice actors, hit songs, or motion capture and cutscenes with fancy action sequence...

Come on with the hyperbole! this game is not a 10/10 or a 1/10 either, games like this one are few and extremely divisive; people who like atmospheric games, horror and cult themes with twisted characterization and care less about deficient technical execution, graphics in particular, will love this game and hold it as a favorite; on the other hand people who are, for lack of a better term, graphics-hoes, who are mostly interested in online shooters and action games, will regard this game as ...

As a long time gamer who happens to play every genre with an admitted liking for Nintendo's games, I can't be more satisfied with games I played this year like: Fire Emblem, Luigi's Mansion SMT IV, Animal Crossing, Pokemon X/Y, Pikmin 3, Wonderful 101, WW HD, Zelda:ALBW and SM3DW. I don't know why some people are so desperate to repeatedly tell me that I am wrong and that Nintendo sucks and needs to die although they themselves haven't even played the games I mentioned, an...

Did I mention anywhere that he accepts a lower salary because he's a nice person??! reading is easy, comprehension can be difficult my friend.

On a side note, the guy looks like a genuinely nice person in a happy-go-lucky sort of way!

The funny thing is that I think Pachter is being paid more than Iwata for a hocus-pocus job description. I've read about how modest Iwata's yearly salary is compared to other CEOs in the business, in fact so low that it would make less than a quarter of the money Sega, Square-Enix or Capcom CEOs make on yearly basis, let alone western gaming executives. I believe that this is in part due to a strong following of tradition in the management philosophy of Nintendo. It doesn't matter...

I have never been a fan of GT, I felt it was boring since the 1st one on Ps and I didn't understand the appeal; but this looks downright bad.

Me too, I finished it and even played online(which I tend not to do very much), and I have nothing but praise and recommendation for this game, extremely fun, polished and has a unique atmosphere. Imagine if it gets a Wii U release with Gamepad as The Poltergust!!
that would be an extremely fun game to be had.

The article has valid points, you need to read it if you are still on the fence, but if you already have a Wii U and especially now with the release of Pikmin3 , WW HD, Wonderful 101 and SM3DW, you know that it Rocks! I am totally enjoying mine now and it's keeping me off Steam except for playing the newly released Deadly Premonition DC.

Do we really need a third Twin. The good thing about Nintendo is that they have a different approach than that of Sony and MS, we NEED the different approaches and we need every company to continue to do what they do best and not try to be Copies of each other just under a different brand name, to face risk and not run from it.

You know for me personally, I played countless hours on my 360/ps3/Wii as well as 3DS/Vita, and on PS2/GC/XboX before that, but going into this gener...

Continue focusing on quality titles with great value like SM3DW, Pikmin 3, WW HD, and advertise and hype upcoming releases like Bayonetta 2, MK 8, Smash Bros, DKC:TF, SMT X Fire Emblem and Monolith soft's X.

Work hard on revealing or teasing the next Metroid and Zelda and add in a surprise reveal of a long forgotten franchise or two(e.g Star Fox, F-Zero, Wave Race, etc).

Try to underline the advantages that the Gamepad brings in gameplay and ease of use ...

Although personally, I don't think you've addressed my points; but, just to give you some insight on my gaming experience, I've been playing VG since 1984 and I've owned almost every console and handheld ever made, I play games across every genre. But I almost always prefer games that rely on refined gameplay, control and fun factor over quasi-movie experience especially if the gameplay is derivative, linear and/or full of QTEs. In my personal opinion I think that TLOU is mass...
