How the hell did this get a 4/5?
The price alone has to knock it down several points! >.<

The game never really radically diverts from that formula.

You get characters later on who change how you play the game, but that's about it.

I think Red Steel 2 makes better use of the controller, but I think Goldeneye is the better game.

A lot more variety. A lot more compelling campaign.
And really.. not gonna hide it... huge Bond fan!

We started doing 7 to be different...

And because I love James Bond.. so technically a top 007 list...

System has expandable memory

So could buy SD cards or an external HDD.

Nintendo didn't publish Resident Evil 4.

It won't be a system seller, and it doesn't have to be. Nintendo handles that well on their own.

What it does is deepen the line-up of games for the console. It appeals to people who wouldn't traditionally buy a Nintendo system. So while I don't think it would sell the game to many, it does start to get wandering eyes curious about games like this.

Again, that was post-launch.
The actual launch went fairly well in all areas.

The 3DS wasn't a launch failure though.

The 3DS did remarkably well at launch, it was the post-launch that really kind of crashed and burnt.

I think they are doing a decent job, but not a great one.

Do you really expect games to be 100 bucks?

It's a fairly simple thing.
Retailers price products at a market cap.. a price they don't think the company would exceed. This way when the price comes in they can adjust it without losing anything.

If they allowed you to pre-order at 50 then games were 60... some would be legally obligated to take the 10 dollar bath on every title.

I felt this was more about MS than it was about Nintendo.

It's a bit of a vague title...

Maybe, he meant the 3DS' Triumphs, like the best games for the device so far?

I think it's a combination of those two.

I think they saw that Nintendo had 3 games that were localized.. and new for them.. that they were refusing to bring to America

My interests in the games diminished based on their reveal... so Xenoblade>>The Last Story>>>> Pandora's Tower (which surprisingly no one is begging for anymore)

Can't wait for The Last Story, but boy did momentum for that game die after being announced in the west.

Sorry for the confusion, but we like to mash up the big news featured in the show.

Like Final Fantasy Versus Ouya

I think Nintendo's attitude is that Mario Kart is a once a gen franchise.

Though would be nice if they bought this and their other arcade titles home on like their downloadable service.

Only a 4?

Are you an Orcist?

Nintendo didn't announce the Wii launch details until 2 months before launch.. and that turned out just well for them.

Same deal with the 3DS and 3DS XL...

So don't think it is really hurting them.

Their odd system of silence though
