Basically, it cycles through the episodes so there's around 10 from each region at a time. It removes 5 and adds 5 every week. There is one way to get them. In Australia, they do massive boxsets of entire sagas. I'm unsure if they're region free or anything

To be fair, Iwata confirmed that there will only be NSMB game per console. We'll just see DLC now until the next gen, 2D platformer wise

To be fair, those characters aren't as flexible to other gaming genres than their original

I think the problem is that the other games just don't sell Look at the last F-Zero, it sold less than a million units. Same with Starfox. While people say they're core franchises, which they are, they just don't have the pulling power

Based on Sony's alleged advertising for their PS4 reveal this coming week, it brings to light something that a few people have noted, especially recently, have considered there are too many Mario games. I can see why people may think this from the outside, but in reality, the games are so drastically different, I don't see the issue. Let's look at 2011, 2012 and 2013 2011: Mario Sports Mix - Sports game Mario & Sonic at the London Olympic Games - Sports mini-game collection Fortune Street (does that count?) - Board game Super Mario 3D Land - 3D Platformer Mario Kart 7 - Racer 2012: Mario Party 9 - Minigame collection New Super Mario Bros 2 - 2D Platformer New Super Mario Bros U - 2D Platfomer Mario Tennis Open - Tennis game Paper Mario Sticker Star - Turn-based RPG 2013: New Super Mario Bros U DLC - 2D Platformer (almost as big as a new game but cheap so I'm including it) Luigi's Mansion 2 - Action Adventure Mario & Luigi: Dream Team - Turn-based RPG Mario Golf: World Tour - Golf Mario and Donkey Kong: Minis on the Move - Puzzle Possible: 3D Mario Wii U Mario Kart Wii U Aside from the NSMBs in 2012, which are an anomaly and will only remain one per platform, this is not that much of an issue. It's not like they're the same game over and over, or that they are yearly iterations of the same game but in a different locale with a few improvements, yet people still claim it's a yearly thing and that Nintendo are struggling to come up with new ideas Now, personally I'm fine with this. It provides an eclectic selection of games, some of which would likely be ignored by the general public if not for the Mario name, such as Mario and Donkey Kong. So what do you think? Are you happy with the eclectic games, would you rather many of them not have the Mario name? Would you rather they only do one Mario titled game a year?

Indeed, and the battles were so static and full of recycled footage. Nowadays, they're way more dynamic

They cycle through the episodes of each season changing every week. It does have access to the latest movie to watch (it's also on Pokémon.com), and a special Meloetta short which hasn't aired outside of Japan

Do you not think that if Nintendo could have got Animal Crossing out for the holiday season, then they would have done? Nintendo don't delay games for the fun of it. They get them out as soon as they can

More money dropping, but necessary http://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B0071KZNUY/ref=oh_details_o01_s00_i00 It's this one. It's pretty cool. Four fans which mean it's a bit louder than my last one, and vibrates a bit more, but everything fit in

Well, if Patcher says it...

OSHI THAT JUST CRASHED MY WII U

Well, just about finished this. Just need to do the achievement-esque Starite Shards and then I've 100%'d it. Great game, a bit easier than the past ones, though some things stumped me completely. I have had a lot of fun playing it over the past week and recommend it to anyone. Have only touched on the Object Editor a little, but I do lack a creative imagination. I have been trying hard to work out what would make it get delayed, tried words like spastic to see if that was the case again, but nothing.

1. Global recession 2. No games 3. See 1 & 2

It's still not as dire as we though Someone posted this on NeoGAF. It's a dire month, yes, but it's still tracking ahead of the first three months or the 360 and PS3, and the three months indicate a launch (not the six months Nintendo do). Yes I know, mitigating factors. There's always mitigating factors for everything so don't use that as an excuse for the other consoles

Funnily enough, they have been developing. Ideas, concepts, codes, technology don't just spring out of thin air. Problem is, the retailers haven't exactly been giving the Wii U a fair shake GAME have shut down many stores in key areas. HMV scaled back their gaming division around the same time, and now they're shutting down a load of stores. This lead people to supermarkets. However, I've been in most of the supermarkets around here numerous times since launch and I have not once seen a Wii U console. Sure, I've seen a couple of games, and a peripheral or two, but never a console. They have no right to complain about poor sales if they don't actually bother stocking the damned thing

Remember the saying A panicked Nintendo is the best Nintendo It really is a shame, the Wii U is the greatest console that I have ever played and I really hope Nintendo turn it around

This is spectacular. While people are injured to the sonicboom and explosion destroying glass and it hitting, I'd have given anything to witness such a sight.

It's not dead until it's warm and dead. Give it a year. If things haven't improved by then (and considering we'll have Zelda and Mario by then), then yes, the Wii U is screwed.

Ok, if you want me to repeat what I've been saying the past couple of months Poor launch - Relative. It wasn't great but it wasn't poor. It all depends what you were expecting Slow OS - I've timed it and it's faster than the Xbox360 OS for me Gimped ports - Agreed eShop 18+ purchases restricted - Europe only, forced by German law. Not Nintendo's fault at all Sparse release list - Agreed, it could be better...but what launch actually has a steady stream of games within the following six months? Poor audio connectivity - I guess some prefer for it to each be separate, but I have it all hooked up through my TV so not really relevant to me, and countless others No analogue triggers - Irrelevant No VC - Irrelevant No killer AAA+ title - Relative No advertising - agreed Delayed games - Annoying, but for the greater good. I'd rather not have crap rushed games.

Got some higher res ones http://www.serebii.net/rumbleu/pics.shtml It does seem like this won't be as fully-fledged as the 3DS one. Seems to just be confined to these small areas with new toys thrown at you. Could change though, we didn't see the true scope of the last one straight away

To be fair, very few consoles have actually bricked. The reports of bricking all stemmed from that idiot G4 presenter who decided to unplug it as it was updating. Perception is a factor that needs to be sorted though, specs especially. Digital Foundry has been ragging on the Wii U so much. With their recent GPU bit, they declared it rubbish despite saying there was a lot they were unclear with.

While that number isn't good in any sense of the word, there are clear reasonings for it: 1. It's a new console. Obvious, yes. However, unlike the others, there are no special money saving deals for it, especially post-Christmas. In these times of dire economic straits, where everyone's looking for the best deal, it's not that uncommon 2. No new games. Above all else to drive sales, it's new games. I also maintain that if third parties hadn't given the Wii U shoddy ports months after their original release, this wouldn't be an issue I have no doubt it'll bounce back.

You make me sad

Turns out one of the plug bits right next to the fan was for the floppy drives, not for connecting the fan to the motherboard. Doing so seemingly shorted out the entire PSU power connection. Not my fault that I forgot floppy drives existed. I have images on my site that won't even fit on them. It's ridiculous

I was just going off of the tweet :/
