"range from a yawn to forced applause"

The characters themselves are 2D.

I did. Luckily, I bought a copy of Metroid Prime Trilogy before I even had the system once I heard it was going to be discontinued.

He's saving closer to $100. NSMBU is $60, plus the $20 for the downloadable Luigi DLC, and then $50 off the console itself. In reality, it's $130 that he saved. Oh, and the other consoles didn't get any new releases? I guess The last of us, MGS Rising, Ni No Kuni, etc aren't games that were released For them.

Pretty much, but Nintendo was the stalwart holdout for years. After the snes/genesis era game consoles stopped being bundled with games... except for Nintendo consoles that is. The best way to get a consumer excited about your console is to hand-pick titles representative of the hardware instead of the idiot…

So we've gone from "Hey we're cool!" to "Hey, we're still cool!" and finally now gone full circle with "Hey, remember when we were cool?"

Stephen, this is smart analysis, as expected, but you left out one of the best parts of StreetPass: personal messages. When you meet a fellow StreetPasser more than once, you can leave them a short, private note, along with a silly face. It's a limited system, but it lets you get to virtually know some of the people…

The idea behind it is nice, though dunno, i feel like it misses too many of the actual pivotal moments.

sorry , I was on the other side at that time (but the video is pretty cool though)

Heads up:

If your gonna troll at least come up with something recent, using that tired gag is only making you look foolish.

Seriously quit embarrassing yourself.

does it come with hats?

It's almost like a commentary on how achievements affect the way we play games, and even what games we buy.

Nah, EB Games has done "black friday" sales the last two years along with a lot of retailers. They're not as extreme as the states but it's worth looking at at least.

Legend of Zelda ALBW 3DS XL bundle seems to be heading stateside, too.

No Wii U sales?

We have had quite a few.

Seriously can AMERICA get 1 cool 3DS that doesn't have a PIKACHU face on it...

MH4 on WII U > This

They will not. They never will. Get over it.
