This is actually why I clicked this article. I'm disappointed as well. Maybe it's better not to invite the type of, let's say, "discussions" that such a megalist would generate on Thanksgiving of all days.

I think that's kind of a different list though. What they're going for is "the 12 best games that you can play on the Vita," and if one of those twelve games is also available on another console, that doesn't mean it's not one of the 12 best games on the Vita. If the majority of the games on a given list are…

I don't think anyone dares to dream that big. I'd love a new Chrono game (assuming it came out on a Nintendo console), but I don't think it's likely and I don't want to get my hopes up.

Other regions have Club Nintendo as well.

You dislike DLC, but you want Nintendo to release a Game of the Year edition of Smash Bros.? What do you think would be in the Game of the Year edition?

I mean, as far as we knew he was dead, though. He chopped himself in half, then got blown up when Namek went boom, and we didn't see him for a while. A character doesn't have to literally die and be reborn to "return."

As a consumer of video games, we don't "have" to do anything. We're free to decide to play, or not play, whichever games we want. However, as a consumer looking for a satisfying gameplay experience in the modern market, you will find yourself more often than not forced to pay for DLC, if you want to experience a game…

I mean, at face value, I think embargoes are usually for the purpose of keeping certain pre-release info from being spoiled until after release. This one, however, strikes me more as Ubi trying to stifle negative press until after a large portion of their consumer base has already purchased the game, and that is bad.

You do realize that going out and buying the game themselves wouldn't get the review out 12 hours earlier, right? Also, I think you might be overstating the amount of actual influence gaming journalism has on consumers. Sure, there is certainly some influence, but I don't think it's as vast as you think it is. At any…

This was my first thought, especially when I read the Sheng Long one, as that was a similar case (although Smash's was not as much rooted in actual speculation as SF's). Maybe years down the road, we'll see an update to this article when Ridley's added to the next Smash!

As far as I know, OoT3D (and, I'm assuming, this game) wasn't created from the ground up. I'd assume they took the original N64 game's assets and polished them. That makes for a much less taxing development process than creating an entirely new game. The games that you cited are beautiful games, but I don't think you…

You mean like they did? Seriously, did you play Ocarina of Time 3D? The game looks gorgeous, especially compared to the original, which hasn't aged incredibly well. I'd expect this to look just as polished.

I agree, although there are a few N64 games that I wouldn't mind seeing remade. I've played Super Mario 64 so many times in all of its existing incarnations that to see it totally remade with modern graphics would be a neat little trip. But on the whole, I agree that there aren't really any Nintendo games that I feel n…

I know that the Marvel side of this has a few Power Discs that act as alternate looks for some of the figures. Here's hoping they'll put out one that makes Maleficent look more like her original animated incarnation.

Zero Fs were given?

I'd think the opposite: if this does well, I'd expect we will see more Luigi's Mansion games. Hell, I'd say the fact that they're even doing this one shows that they know there's interest. I'd also expect to see this on a Nintendo console someday, assuming it doesn't suck (or, given Luigi's ghost-hunting weapon of…

It's a shame this poor lady's birthday was ruined by the actions of her son. He should be ashamed of the way he acted on her birthday.

This is still my absolute favorite gif on the Internet.

I'm assuming, as it gets closer to "Spring 2015," we'll find out that he'll actually only be exclusive to people who bought both versions for a limited time, or that he'll be available for purchase to other people or whatnot.

By that reasoning, he's also the most worthwhile DLC ever, because depending on whichever version you start with, he also comes with an extra $40-60 worth of game content.
