There's a reason for the discrepancy. According to Takahashi, 'When we were putting together that article, we were still in the process of thinking what we should call this activity. That's why it wasn't yet summed up in one word.' (Good thing 'hero costume operation' didn't catch on, huh?) While it's possible others…

I don't think it's unreasonable to assume that they will release Mewtwo as a stand-alone download for all systems, but technically the Tweeted statement from Nintendo doesn't explicitly confirm that to be the case. It does virtually all-but confirm it, but doesn't actually establish the link between the concept of…
This just makes me want one of the Tower Burgers from the now-defunct Pakuch Burger in Shibuya. I had remembered that Ashcraft recommended it and had a chance to go when I was in the area years ago... but now it's no more.
At this point it's worth wondering if these comps are really elaborate bootlegs or if SEGA actually signed off on this. While I'm not exactly sure, the back liner notes seem to imply that these had SEGA's blessing. Sonic Dance Power Volume VIII apparently came with a playable demo of Sonic & Knuckles Collection for…
There are three Kotaku editors in Japan: Brian Ashcraft, Toshi Nakamura, and Richard Eisenbeis.
How long until someone hacks in a patchwork David Hayter voice mod?
So, now we can finally pin the Recycle Bin to the Taskbar, but can we also pin specific shortcuts to folders? I've yet to use Windows 8, so maybe it's already been included there, but as it stands, Windows 7 just replaces any specific folders you try to pin with a general "Windows Explorer" shortcut that will only…

Part of the problem, I think, is that the system sometimes just plain doesn't record the proper input sometimes: (Edit: I urge you to keep reading after you watch these videos, as the text will delve into why inputting commands faster/flicking isn't a solution here):
While Halloween has become increasingly popular in the past decade, trick-or-treating still really isn't done—or really done right, for that matter. Where it is done, the practice can feel a bit too organized, and you generally don't see kids and parents roaming the streets looking for candy.
This is how I felt playing Smash Bros. on the 3DS with its default controls. In games these days, the “A” button (or “X” button on the PlayStation) is almost always the jump button—and on the rare occasion it isn't, the “B” button (or “O” on PlayStation) tends to be. In Smash Bros., however, A and B are the attack…
I think you're misremembering. The HUD in the video above is essentially unchanged from the regular Doom one with the exception of the kill notifications and point pop-ups.
It looks like they kept a lot of the old mechanics in place while just adding iron sights, score pop-ups, some new weapons, and some new effects.
Clockwise from top left:
I could be wrong, but I don't think it's the normal XJ220 either. Maybe it's the race version?
It may depend on the topic, but generally I'd say that comments become harassment when they are personal in nature, unnecessarily use derogatory words or concepts, contain little to no constructive criticism, and, for some period of time, are repetitious or continual.
Critics being harassed for criticizing games, sometimes for the very reasons you just mentioned, is an issue separate from that of the content of the games themselves. In other words, what you wrote is off topic; it doesn't directly pertain to the thesis of the open letter mentioned in this article.
If this still maintains DS game compatibility, I might pick it up down the line. Right now, it's not much of a necessity... though I imagine I'll be at a slight disadvantage versus people playing SSB with this, since they'll have easy access to Smash attacks via the C-stick.
Or maybe that "leaked" fighting game they may be developing. I'd be down to play that on the Wii U, too.
