When has nintendo done what it's investors told them to do again?
Not to mention... a random quote from one investor is not equal to investors pressing nintendo to do anything.
If a mario game doesn't sell well... yeah sure. But it'd be first time ever.
I got mine a few weeks ago. That orchestrated track at the end is fantastic.
Great! So much for the claim that Mario 3 on GBA not being confirmed. I expect the kirby title to show up on that list eventually. Still 5 NES titles and 4 GBA titles laft to be announced. Can't wait.
Meanwhile, Those who want in got 2 days left to get to walmart and get it before it's too late.
Well... duh. The console versions are all gonna suck. Why make it worse by putting it in hardware even inferior to that. It's not even a dis to the wii. It's insulting to the title to even bother putting it on ps3.
Expect version 3.77 2 hours after you finish that update.
This is nintendo's chance to make a killer online experience for 3ds. They better 1 up even the wii version or I will be very dissappointed. C'mon nintendo, please please please... do battle mode right.
Looks like someone is lookin to lose a little cash to make some extra sales. Awesome, bigger install base with a bonus. Nintendo wins, gamers win, walmart loses a little.
Makes me wish flipnote studio was on 3ds. Nintendo needs to stop dragging their feet and either port it or improve it, one or the other.
It'll pick up almost assuredly. I mean PS3 only had resistance to play on it for the longest time after launch and look at it now.
It's a Nintendo product. The hate is amazing this gen. Mostly it stems from a sort of inferiority complex Sony gamers got as the ps3 proved to be the third place console this gen after 2 gens of success.
Yeqah, little early to tell with it being mid-summer and the price cut not going into effect yet. After the price cut we'll see what the sales are like then.
In competition, Street Fighter Hands down. It simply is better at balancing and focus. For fun, MK wins because it's such a elaborate, over the top, and visually pleasing title. It's all about getting togeather with your buddies and just having fun. However it shouldn't be played professional competitively, that's an area Street fighter just has down.
They are being nice actually. Sony and Microsoft would never nor has ever done anything this nice for their fans after a price drop. It's not desperation, it's respect for your fanbase.
Actually weather you get to choose or not isn't defined. NES i would not be surprised if we get a choice. GBA though has the sidenote in the press release, "these titles will be made exclusively available to Nintendo Abassadors" which probably means we get a nice 10 game package.
However neither of us know for sure. (seemingly you more then me)
However nintendo HAS released press releases SPECIFIC to what games will be offered. Yoshi's islan...
Amount we payed extra $80
Cost of 10 NES titles on wiiware, $50-$60
Cost of just the 7 announced GBA titles if you wanted to buy them (btw 2 are rare i'm using used prices because wariowares inc new goes for 98 bucks :O) $88
We are getting an incredible deal here.
@rush
I'd like to see the scenario where Sony or microsoft gave it's users 100's of hours of gameplay for free after a price drop. Metroid fusion alone has more game hours possible then every major FPS single player campaign released this year.
Only someone with no taste in games whatsoever would snub Mario advance SMB3 being given to them for free.
Someone didn't do their research these being included is not new news and it doesn't get tacked onto the number making it 22. Misinformed site is misinformed... still Mario advance 3 and kirby and the amazing mirror are fantastic titles that prove the 10 free gba titles alone make up for the 80 dollars extra i spent to get my 3ds.
Meh, who wouldn't have a twinge of buyer remorse after a price drop? 1/3 is actually a pretty decent margin. More then half of the owners don't mind in the least.
You clearly did not read this article, 1 quote from 1 investor where he say, "I think nintendo should make stuff for smartphones" any logical person can see that is no way the equivalent of pressure. That what what notable investor stated not even insinuating in any way that nintendo was taking any of what he was saying into consideration.
It's a site being sensational with one quote they found, writing 1 and a half paragraphs and somehow it's implying anyth...
