Erm, sure, the patches are really relevant to the pricing and scope of these 4 DLC packs. There's no evidence this DLC was ready when the game was or anything. You're bloody insane. Yes, it had those costumes as pre-order DLC (unrelated to what I was discussing) and yes, it received a patch before it came out here. So what? It had been out elsewhere first, and thus minor faults were found that required patches. Get over it. Prepaying for DLC is nothing new, it's called Season Passes. It's nothing new, and it's not Nintendo "depending on it to survive". This game is fleshed out. Mario Kart 8 was fleshed out. Smash Bros. is fleshed out. These DLC packs are all extras done after development of the main game finished. I swear, all you do these days is troll.

Not really. It's substantial And there's a clear difference in cost between where Koei Tecmo publishes it (Japan - 3000 Yen/$30/£18) and where Nintendo publishes it (NA/EU - £13.49/€14.99/$19.99)...all for four packs So yeah, no trashing material here. Try again next time you come out from under your bridge

Well a couple of these are spreading idiocy and falseitudes. One keeps calling it a port.

I had the same thought. People in the comments think it's the same game as the Wii U one too, and think it should be free with the Wii U one a la Crossbuy, or be £10 only. A couple of reviews are acting like this is a hollowed out version of the Wii U one. I even saw one review complaining that you had to unlock characters...

I wasn't sure if I'd still be playing, but Adventure Mode keeps kicking my ass due to being underlevelled. Nintendo and Koei Tecmo doing DLC the right way. Can't help but think Nintendo made sure it was substantial and cheap.

Pic of the day. Here's a stage exclusive to the Wii U version: Gamer. Don't let Mom find you while you're duking it out!! If Mom does spot you, she'll scold you and blow you away!! ...I've never seen a fighting action game as chaotic as this one.

Adventure Mode is being a pain, really need to Level Zelda up, getting my arse kicked and have to get A Rank to proceed. Yeesh

The Network Links are brutal. Yikes. Just got swarmed by loads of Redead Knights, Fiery Aerialfos, Big Poes, Lizarfos and Impa in one group and hits do barely anything on them

Indeed. After years of abuse of DLC on the 360 and the PS3, I was dreading the day we saw Nintendo do it, but they have truly revitalised the entire concept. It's no longer ridiculously expensive, you get more bang for your buck, and it all seems actually worth it. Nintendo may be behind in some areas, but at least they have learned from the mistakes of others. Great article

Indeed. Even then, I truly believe the industry is heading for a crash. Increased budgets, minimal returns...practically only the AAA annual crap selling well. Console sales being heavily frontloaded then collapsing to worse than the consoles were in years past. It's all doomed. I would make a post about it elsewhere here, but I'm sure certain people would call me a fanboy and then say "but the PS4!!!!!!!!! it's more cinematic"

It doesn't work that way and you know it.

Pic of the day. We've prepared many hats for Mii Fighters...but a lot of them are humorously designed, so it might be hard to coordinate them with flair. You could, of course, choose to not wear the hats at all... It makes me wonder--how is everyone planning to dress up their Mii Fighters? Well, one thing is for sure: the ninja headband worn by the Mii in front should look good with anything.

Was still at a different time.

Was this not explained in the Super Smash Bros. Direct in April?

Industry was a much better place in Japan back then, to be fair. Home console market there is dead, handheld isn't far behind. Japan is embracing mobile rapidly and it's scary. No, those sales aren't good, but they're in line with what we should expect and what most games that aren't Pokémon, Monster Hunter or Youkai Watch get. Seriously, last week the 3DS did only ~50,000, and did better than all other devices combined. The industry is in hell...but this is a discussion for another topic.

A wizard did it.

Just got one of yours on there Also got a Level 99...just tried it, holy crap.

It's automatically turned off, you need to turn it on in Settings.

Well I think you're both wrong and crazy :p

Why? If you treated Skyward Sword controls properly, it was a masterpiece. If you insisted on waggling, then you're an idiot and you should feel bad :p Skyward Sword is not a bad game at all.
