Wii

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EYmWApVVA_I&t=98 When intergalactic aliens misinterpret video-feeds of classic arcade games as a declaration of war against them, they attack the Earth, using the games as models for their various assaults. President Will Cooper (James) has to call on his childhood best friend, '80s video game champion Sam Brenner (Sandler), now a home theater installer, to lead a team of old-school arcaders (Dinklage and Gad) to defeat the aliens and save the planet.

Thank you. That's immediately what I thought of too. Great game and the single player as a mode was fantastic. Why haven't Nintendo tried something like it since? Well I guess it was Rare and to a lesser extent F-Zero GX had a campaign mode but again that wasn't Nintendo's own work. It's something Nintendo should explore but Diddy Kong Racing, when I think of that game, the single player, its modes and its uniqueness are the first thing that spring to mind.

Lego Jurassic World - Mike Taylor Interview

Nintendo Going Mobile?! & New Codename NX Console - Discussion

Unlucky Arsenal but a very good performance. They can be proud. I hope Barca get Monaco next round.

Did you spot Bono? I was thinking Paddy's Day, how come he's over there? But then I know he's a nice Irish lad who avoids paying any tax to the Irish government, he probably lives there or it's down as his main residence. This game just got interesting. 2-0 on the night.

Wouldn't mind seeing Arsenal go through. It'll distract them in the race for the Champions League and they'd be far better to watch in the next round than Monaco.

I was totally against the idea of buying indie games but I've been a big supporter of them. Guacamelee, Shovel Knight, Toki Tori, Toki Tori 2, Shovel Knight, Pure Chess, Stealth Inc. 2, Mighty Switch Force, Mighty Switch Force 2, Trine 2 and Unepic. I'm sure I've missed a few and I'll buy much more. I didn't mean to be disrespectful but I want big budget games like Batman Arkham Knight too.

Don't get me started on Skyward Sword. Awful, awful, truly awful Zelda game but it's just a blip on an otherwise impeccable record. Regarding your question, I don't know about damaging, maybe. I do miss certain games since all the 3rd party support has gone on the Wii U. Indies? A few are great but you don't buy a sports car to drive at 5 m.p.h.

I'm the same with Smash Bros., played tonnes of Brawl but not really bothered with the Wii U version. It does feel a bit samey. However, with MK8 I've played a tonne of it but I didn't play much of the Wii version. So I'm thinking it's probably saturation and a bit of fatigue with the Smash franchise which is a shame because the Wii U game is much better. If I'd played MK Wii a lot I'd say I wouldn't be playing MK8 half as much.

Love that Monty Python gif.

The news has done wonders for Nintendo's share price. [TWEET]577837822066880512[/TWEET]

You shouldn't be so hard on yourself, you're not that bad.

The boxart for Donkey King has just been revealed. Best cover ever!

Are Pokemon Snuffle and Donkey King new games?

At the moment I'm playing Darksiders II in spurts and MK8 on and off.

@dazzybee by a country mile is the worst offender. Sorry but it's true.

And forgetting how to speak English already.

What kind of games do you think they'll do? I think they'll be freemium type games similar to Pokemon Shuffle with micro transactions.

Not a fan of this because I don't care for smart phone gaming and this is going to take resources away from traditional gaming. There's no indication yet that this is going anywhere else but Japan.
