And considering that for today Xenoblade Chronicles is €9.99, you may as well if you haven't already So, I have today to decide if I want to get Xenoblade Chronicles X as a download. If I get the Wii one today, it essentially covers the cost

And Kirby Power Paintbrush

The purchases are tied to the account. It's just the account is not easy to float. Delete the account and you'll delete everything on both 3DS and Wii U that was purchased with the account.

Well that was awesome.

And third parties help fill those gaps. You could argue the same of first party variation being low for Sony and Microsoft. Those are nowhere near as diverse as Nintendo's output, but we don't notice it because they have third parties propping up the lineup, which brings me back to my original point that Nintendo getting back third parties is the major issue.

Considering we have had this argument at least 4 times. You have made the claim, I have refuted it, you have ignored the evidence and keep returning with same said claim. It's bordering on ridiculous. I apologise for losing my temper but come on.

And as I said, there other issues but third party is the main issue. As for first party variation, how many times do I have to fucking correct you with this? Get it into your god damned head.

Way to ignore the rest of my post.

Nintendo needs to get third parties on board. That's all. You say 5 decent games isn't acceptable? How many have Sony developed this year? Microsoft? Stolen from GAF Nintendo have put out far more games than their competitors did, both published and developed. Granted they've had a couple of stinkers like amiibo Festival, but can we scrap the idea that Nintendo can't support platforms? They can't support them alone but they're doing a damned good job at trying. Sony and Microsoft pump out less titles because they don't need to. The major problem is lack of third parties and that's the major conundrum they need to solve...not their own thinking (for the most part. They do need to fix things, I'm not denying that.)

To be fair, the games are linked to accounts now...

Monster Hunter badges have been added in Japan Monster Hunter X Monster Hunter Diary Poka Poka Airou Village

Thing is, Nintendo going for a "basics" console would end very, very badly for them. There's no room in the marketplace for three near identical consoles. Nintendo have to be different enough in order to entice people but similar enough to lure third parties. It's tricky.

From what we can see, it's not about registration but more about oversight and accountability.

It's just tricky. I can fill in the gap of the usual time it takes for a turn to be done, but this elongated timer due to no official rule capabilities is what messes me up. I run out of the bull I can spout :p

I take solace in the fact that people who do it for the event in the US, officially, get a lot of crap wrong. Them commentating the Japan VS Japan match for Masters Final last year was hilarious as they didn't know what the hell was going on, if it was a critical, what move was used (until animation) and so forth

Yeah, did throw a couple of those in there Still, people complained. There does seem to be interest from the higher ups of the UK TOs for me to do it again, but they're wanting to give other people a shot as well. They picked me and my friend because we were the ones introduced as a duo (plus my position in the community helps with exposure). Difference is, lots of people have the knowledge, but having the knowledge and being able to commentate in a way that doesn't bore people is a tricky thing to do. My commentating partner and I are going to keep practicing. Next time we may be able to do it is April, but I'm hoping to parlay it into commentating Nationals. That'd be huge

There was another issue, which some of the feedback has brought to further light. Basically, as this wasn't a Battle Box locked event (everything controlled by TPCi's software), the turn time was over twice the length it should be and we had only practiced using official and proper timings so when people started playing out the clock (annoyingly) I ended up with nothing to say so there was silence :/ Due to that and the aforementioned error, one person kept saying we were the worst commentators ever :/

Basically, a player used Fake Out on a turn when not the first turn the Pokémon was sent out, meaning it failed. I thought it may be a misclick but then 15 seconds later twigged why it was done, but not before a couple of hecklers had a go at me. I blame fatigue.

Sky1 confirmed to be airing it here

It went well. A bit shakey at points and I miscalled the meaning behind a move which seemed to annoy a couple of people, but it went well. Thanks for asking

They're not going to forgo data packs. That absolutely won't happen. Preloading is just something that hasn't happened yet in Europe on Wii U or 3DS.

In Japan you can now purchase GamePads separately for 13,284 Yen http://onlineshop.nintendo.co.jp/shop/item_detail?category_id=170033&item_id=1877914&_ga=1.190877738.1295602933.1416383430
