You're prone to exaggeration.

Please refrain from hypocrisy! And you're completely missing the point on what a game built around the Gamepad should be! Completely! It should be an experience you can't get elsewhere, it should be a USP. The majority of those games would not be defunct without the Gamepad, they could just have their controls mapped to a traditional control scheme! Like putting Lego City's scan feature in-game, and moving Sing Party's lyrics to the TV. When mini-game compilations are really the best examples you can draw upon it's a pretty sorry case. And Art Academy was successfully preceded by Udraw.

I think price could possibly be the predominant factor. It probably is for me. £279.99, £249.99... whatever the Mario Kart Bundle comes in at, I can't see myself picking it up. £199.99, £179.99 I think I would. No one with any know is going to buy the 8GB model, when you have to factor in an HDD at £50 on top of that. The games (well some) are actually there for people who do pick one up, it's just enticing them to. That and an N64/Gamecube Virtual Console.

Do you not think it's shocking that outside of Nintendo Land, Nintendo themselves haven't created one game built around the Gamepad? and Nintendo Land was basically a compilation of fun demo's Nintendo had lying around from developing the console. And now they only seem to be saying they'll design games around it because they've been called out on it! Who did they expect to be supporting it if not themselves? It's absolutely laughable! Creating a device they tell us we need and yet not even they can see the use in it!

We're also talking 10 years ago for the Gamecube, tech prices are only relevant in the now. £170 today doesn't buy you Gamecube tech... probably half that money does.

So Nintendo have produced a console no one wants, at a price that isn't attractive or competitive, and at a cost they can't afford to lower? ... well there's a definition for royally fucked up if ever I saw one.

lol. They wouldn't sell anywhere near enough to bankrupt Nintendo :p You and your crazy talk.

@Serebii I'd prefer you didn't go over it, but for a bundle to attract new customers that price is too high, and I speak as one such potential customer. Oh well why didn't you say!! this changes everything.

It's happening way too expensive if it's true.

What were the control changes they made in Prime 2, I can't quite remember now, but I know having adored Prime so much and there having been nothing wrong with the setup, I think it started the game on a bit of a bad note.Was it a change to scanning, or lock-on or something? Also the changes they made to the data log made it more complicated to navigate I think? I think the first 'world' theme in the game is a bit boring isn't it, isn't it quite a dry baron overworld and then a swampy type area. Neither really grab you like Primes space station and beautiful Tallon overworld. The Light Dark world switching also wasn't really a concept I found myself enjoying straight away either. That's not to say I wouldn't have if I'd given it more of a chance. But yeah a combination of things just didn't warm me to the game. Also I find it annoying they changed Samus' character model from the end of Prime 1.

Watched it last night, basically it was fantastic! I loved the Cap, Bucky relationship so much! I knew it was Bucky but it really didn't look like him at all with the mask/semi-mask, and even a bit without. Great transformation! Black Widow was great as ever, Falcon was a fantastic introduction and a really likable actor, loved more Maria Hill especially her showing up in the van, and whilst I wasn't initially sure about the actress playing Sharon Carter I liked her too. Overall really great casting and performances. The story and action scenes were just brilliant, the Nick Fury car scene and Cap/Widow/Falcon/WinterSoldier car scene were SO good. The opening Boat sequence was really cool too. Now that's how I imagine a SHIELD team to work together! they make the Agents of SHIELD team look really clumsy and noobish. I'm already looking forward to Captain America 3 for more of these characters! I have a feeling Bucky will come around in time to help Cap face off against a returning Red Skull. Would be awesome to have Bucky and Falcon show up in The Avengers too.

Yeah like @Fierce_LiNk I've only played Prime 1 and the first few hours of Prime 2. I really should get the trilogy, but it's expensive. [for that reason and more] A Metroid Prime Trilogy HD would be incredible and needs to happen!

Well where's DK Jr buggered off to? I hope he saw Donkey Kong through college! :p And Diddy is either DK's friend, or nephew?... so there could be another Kong [/Yoda]

Wait, what's the Donkey Kong relationship again?... Cranky was original Donkey Kong arcade, and DK was Donkey Kong Jr, no?

Stefano Dominicali has 'stepped down'. This new guy had better be temporary!! Ferrari are screwed. I feel bad for Kimi and Fernando. This was supposed to be the season we see two world champions take one another on, but Ferrari fail to give them the car and now the team is without a principle. What an utter waste of a year.

I think Powerstone and Headhunter are hidden gems, yep! I actually hadn't heard of Silver, but it does look like it could be good. How about rhythm game Space Channel 5! (never did get around to the full game, but it's a Dreamcast classic) EDIT: Redshell beat me too it.

Crazy Taxi and Code Veronica are SO good! Those games!! Dude you, have, have to get Power Stone in your collection! Possibly my favorite fighter outside of Melee and fantastially unique Headhunter was brilliant! Then of course there's your Sonic Adventure's and Shenmue's!

Pilotwings 3DS was bloody brilliant! All it was missing was DLC.

Yeah I watched it last night, it gets better and better!

Batman Arkham Asylum (PS3) - £7.19 PlayStation Store Haven't played this series yet! Time to get into it in anticipation for Arkham Knight whenever I get a PS4

Super Mario 3D World - £27.98 - Zavvi http://www.zavvi.com/games-wii-u/super-mario-3d-world/10818008.html

An exaggeration?... or a complete fabrication?

No Serebii :p links on the same page... Title General Info Characters (embedded link) Stages (embedded link) etc...

I honestly didn't see it, I don't know the last time I saw a sidebar on the right (if there was one on the left). You might want to rethink that, as others might overlook it too and it would be wasted effort on your part. I just expected all the info to be on that same page, or the left sidebar to have changed.

Where? http://www.serebii.net/ssbb/ EDIT: Oh I see, it's over on the right now! Serebii, sort your site out :p
