LOL Of The Week right there.

He's a complete headbanger, inconsistent and a tempermental twat. AC Milan aren't taking a financial hit a year later after signing him without good reason. I'd say they're glad to see the back of him.

There's also the currency difference. Just take Ubisofts eShop sale at the minute. There's several games marked at £10 for the British. Instead of doing a fair conversion rate, I find more often than not that they inflate the Euro price. To hell with us they say, "round it up by another 5 and that'll be €15 please. Sure it's good enough for them". When in fact £10 works out at €12.50. Another injustice.

Looks like it. The same way the Metroid stage was shown the other day for the 3DS version.

So apparently the headless chicken time bomb that is Mario Balotelli is returning to the EPL.

No I've not bought anything. Might get Fire Emblem GBA and maybe a Megaman game. I haven't played it since the NES, loved it back then. I can't remember which ones I played. Which one should I get? I hear Megaman 2 is the best. Opinions please?

That's great to hear but don't tell @Blade that.

I think the GBA game prices are too high regardless of quality. They should be €5 or lower. I want Metroid Fusion and The Minish Cap but won't pay €7 each. I'd bite at €5. Games too like Super Mario World(€8) are too high. It's been flogged to death, I'm sure there's very little recoding needed for it. If they want to entice the masses and todays consumer the prices need to be lower.

Ah f#ck it! This feels like a funeral. That's it now. Wii U is officially dead. Nintendo has to take drastic action. We're not just talking about Wii U, it's their very future that depends on it. I'm angry and sad both in equal measure. This is all Nintendos doing. I really am fuming. They've really dropped the ball here. Dreamcast had the label of the most renowned failed console but Wii U will easily take that crown. I'm so pissed off and God help you know who if he tries to defend this. I'm clutching at straws I know but if you knew you were dying or your business was failing you'd do everything in your power to fight for life. What in Gods name are Nintendo doing about this catastrophe? In the eyes of the public very little. Words fail me.

Hyrule Warriors : 69k Not a bad boost for the Wii U but not a great one either. That's not good at all. I was expecting a lot more than that.

Zelda + Dynasty Warriors + Japan =

Thank you, will do. What's worse is as soon as I ordered it I found it elsewhere for far cheaper and free delivery.

Media Create will have sales figures tomorrow but it's selling well. http://www.dualshockers.com/2014/08/19/hyrule-warriors-pushed-japanese-wii-u-software-sales-to-four-times-amount-of-last-year-hardware-selling-well/

Super Metroid is longer than 5 hours but I take your point. http://www.howlongtobeat.com/game.php?id=9390 http://www.howlongtobeat.com/game.php?id=12740 And yes Super Metroid is the greatest game of all time.

5-7 hours? That's the one complaint I've read constantly about this game. It's really good but extremely short.

Yes I was reading that. I don't know how much more bad news I can take. Speaking of Revelations, I ordered the Wii U version from GAME on the 31/7. They said it was shipped on the same day. Yet here we are 19 days later and it still hasn't turned up. They told me I've to wait 45 days before reporting it lost. What a joke. I told them a week ago, it's clearly not going to arrive at this late stage. This was my first online purchase with GAME because I despise them and then this happens. Do you think I'll order from them again? Has anybody else had orders go missing and what did you do about it?

Blasphemy!

SteamWorld Dig - Nintendo eShop Trailer (Wii U) The critically acclaimed SteamWorld Dig is coming to Wii U, 28th August 2014. http://www.nintendo.co.uk/Games/Wii-U-download-software/SteamWorld-Dig-911166.html http://www.nintendolife.com/news/2014/08/steamworld_dig_wii_u_release_date_and_pricing_surface

No you're right we haven't had a Street Fighter since the SNES. The only 2 I can think of that had SF characters were Capcom vs SNK EO 2 for Gamecube and Capcom vs Tatsunoko for Wii. They could give us a port of SF4. Hasn't everything else under the sun had a version of it? I miss Street Fighter and it's not fair as a Nintendo only gamer.

Capcom Street Fighter producer has said that the franchise will eventually come to PS4 and XBONE. What about Wii U? [TWEET]501152883102859264[/TWEET] Getting better every day!

http://nintendoeverything.com/ubisoft-says-nintendo-customers-dont-buy-assassins-creed/#more-169933 Pretty insulting. Just Dance? Really? I wouldn't p1$$ on that franchise.
