The idea behind clearance is you have unsold units you need to sell, even if you lose money for each sale. Either two reasons, you have a new model or you just need to sell underperforming products. I'm not sure if a newer model has been announced yet, so these stores probably need to get rid of them to save money

The clearance is for select stores, so it's just stores that need to maximize their revenue, not all stores are the same

On one hand i...

Been hyped for this game for the past 3 years. I easily devoted 500+ hours into PSO on GC, and at least 000+ on Blue Burst. Why they refuse to give it a Western release yet still release Episode 2 in Japan is beyond me, it's like they don't care about us. I'd rather pay $20 for it now than free in God knows how long

We won't even get a true Episode 2 feel because we will most likely be able to jump into Ep 2 right away (even though it will be harder than Ep ...

Getting good is only part textbook: Builds, counterpicks, team comps, proper laning. The rest is mechanics (technical skill), reaction times, good judgement. Just like in Sports some people are innately built better for the game, you also need the drive and willingness to learn

I know somewhat of pro level tactics, how to lane, and general strategies, the textbook aspect. However because I can't always land my spells, make bad judgement calls, panic in bad situations a...

Other than being super powerful and a huge sword what makes him much better than say Kefka? Also this is 5 of the Greatest Villians, not THE greatest of all time.

I understand what you're saying, but sometimes it's nice to mix it up a little

The issue you have to play a WiiU to understand it, I've yet to hear a bad review when ppl actually get to play it. 8 months and I've yet to see a WiiU demo console in my local Gamestop or Target, no one wants to spend money on something the know little about or can't demo first.

And of course the games, ask anyone who owns a WiiU and they will tell you there has been no reason to buy one over the last 6-7 months.

They need a maketing campai...

Miyamoto's new IP is about an Italian crime family in New York, circling around two brothers and their operations

"Manhattan Bros."

I'd love to see a sequel, even though I don't own a PS3, just to see what they can do knowing what they did wrong, what people want, and knowing there is a devoted fanbase

As fun as it is, the original Smash Bros was never perfect, it was unique, fun and had 12 characters you loved. With Melee and Brawl you could tell Smash Bros was a legitimate franchise. Hopefully the devs for All-Stars get the same support Nintendo gave HAL

Nintendo caters to everyone, not just "casuals" or little kids. The only people who truly think the WiiU is for children are those who think pure graphical output is the best measure of a console or game. It's alright to say Nintendo doesn't take risks with new IP's or that their consoles don't have the specific games you like to play. But when you say Nintendo doesn't care about you or me is when you start to look ignorant

If I said during the...

If you like MTG with a boardgame twist it's a game you want to look out for. It's fairly innovative from at least what I know of CCG. Can find several people on Twitch who stream it

The kind of games you can get on Vita you can get on PS3 as well. Not to say there aren't creative gems on the Vita, but most people would rather play Uncharted, Killzone, or Call of Duty on a home console with a big TV. Doesn't help it has to compete with both the 3DS and tablets/smartphones. It's a good handheld, just no outstanding reason to buy one atm.

The whole "PS Vita Concept" never had it easy from the start. It's competing with the likes of tablets in nearly every way, it's just another handheld device trying to follow you everywhere you go with similar functionalities. It's a video game console that's trying to break into the mainstream market owned by tablets.

Contrast with the 3DS, a portable device with a unique hook (3D), visually appealing to children with a library appealing to a wide...

Speed runners play the game hundreds, if not thousands of times, strats are always changing and it includes tons of repetition and even failure

I watch a streamer do 1:50:00 speed runs (different game), can hardly imagine an 8 hour, especially with so much RNG and luck involved

Lack of Races in Animal Crossing is a valid point, but definitiely not a sign of racism.

To the devs it just may not be important, that it doesn't matter what color the villager's skin is, what matters is how you dress, build your house, and run the town

Pimin 3 is the official launch of Nintendo's attempted comeback, from this month forward there will be a major release almost every month from now till next April, the launch the WiiU should've gotten.

By the time Christmas hits there will be 5-6 must-gets for WiiU owners, by next Spring we will have the likes of Smash, Kart, 3DWorld, 101, maybe Bayonetta 2.

Pikmin 3 is sending a message, don't underestimate Nintendo.

So Nintendo cuts out the middleman and I get "money" for buying stuff I was probably gonna buy anyway?

Seems like a good idea to me, seeing how both parties end up winning

The biggest concern would be if there's enough room for Persona, Fire Emblem, and Shin Megami on one handheld device. Atlus has been such a great partner for Nintendo they won't just let them go without some sort of fight. If Atlus can stay profitable under Nintendo then all the better to acquire them

Also I don't think Nintendo will "destroy Persona" if they get it. THe series would still be in good hands

DLC maybe, too late for any new Day 1 characters

We get the idea Pop

If it wasn't for Persona I would say 110% Nintendo. You feel like tearing the family apart by dedicating Atlus to just one Publisher. Both sides have a lot to gain from acquiring Atlus. Nintendo has always had good relations with Atlus, specially recently (with SMTvFE and whatnot)

Can't we all share? As a long time Nintendo fan I naturally have to say Nintendo should get them. Not much we can do but watch
