primero perras!!!!
tu no eres primero asta que saques mi pene de tu culo
Donde esta el bano?
cual baño? O.o
Why the fuck are you all talking about toilets?
>>>That’s the limit of these creatures’ “intelligence”>>>
LOL!
or did you mean your ano? O.o
Maby both
vas a decir eso cada vez que comentes primero?
Sony and Microsoft will never have world champions for their games because they suck
They dont need to they have things like minecraft and halo that have their own cons and events already
Wooooo!!!!
Although we are glad for the return of the Nintendo World Championships, our perpetual hate for everything non-violent will not allow us to provide cover footage of the event.
Man you always seem to know the exact crap ign would throw at us. How do you do it?
We find your comment to not be able to be taken seriously, seeing as your name involves Batman. And as you know, DC comics cannot be taken seriously either. Now leave, I have to nurture to my trolls.
OMG People, do you think in the new NWC they would give golden Wii U disk to the winners?
That would be awsome
>>>Even my limitless Phazon energy cannot handle this…>>>
>>>And I’m a Boss ass Bitch, I told you many times you are still too young to become the Lord of War>>>
Fucking warlords over in Japan were younger than I am. Comment fucking irrelevant.
>>>We all saw you in the video, clearly you’re not in their level yet>>>
Which video?
Please share it!!!!!!
>>>The one Nintendo made?>>>
Please! You know you fucking see me. My swag would make you and all of your minions go fucking blind.
>>>I don’t know of this primeval word “swag” and you’ll have to reach that rank first little boy before making any useless threats>>>
I’ve always been swaged out. Reached that status long ago. Don’t get fucking mad because an old man like yourself has no swag whatsoever.
*You’ll know when
Nintendo World Championship, restricted to the US. Cool. I know it’s always been like that but still.
>>>I think Lord Reggienator did it again…>>>
https://youtu.be/GBLRNVcLTyI?t=41s
World Championship… Available only within the US…
Duh. The U.S. is the world.
since when?
Since when we beat the British.
Poor Americans,deluded bitches.
There was sarcasm in my sarcastic American comment.
HEEEELLLLL YEEEEEAAAHHHH!!!!!!!!!!! My hype level just went over 9000
What 9000? There’s no way it could possibly do that. CAN IT?!!!!!!!!
Why is it a World Champ. if it only concerns US americans?
>>>Because most Americans thinks the US is the entire world>>>
Too bad for them, they could have partnered up with stores in Japan, some (main) countries in Europe and the rest of the Americas to organise a real WC.
>>>Nevermind, we’ll create better ones, we’ll have 4 WCs>>>
Only the Southern Americans running around in swamps and hunting ducks. That is central US. Coastal Americans on the East and West know better. So… Most Americans then.
Fuck you. Fucking Yankee, go suck my dead duck.
I was expecting you Deepsouth. I’m surprised you gave my stupid comment any attention. In any case, I was wrong for generalizing an entire area with a single archetype. Also, I would suggest getting a wordpress Avatar; as I see you around often enough. It would be worth your time.
Nintendo World is the only world.
It was Nintendo who decided it would be U.S. Only. And most Americans want to travel the world, so your wrong..
I hate Americans
And we fucking hate you back
Too bad for you. We’re awesome.
Why are Europeans so jealous of Americans?
>>>No one is jealous of Americans>>>
Nintendo US championships… Fucking hell
Awesome. I just wish that Mario Maker was available to play everywhere else…

weak as F. they really didn’t need this cheesy video to announce something nobody cares about.
I would say thing finally turning around for us nintendo fans but since 3ds jump off it been a turn around couse honestly it took up a great part of my time and still do. And now wii u the underdog take it’s rightful place of finally being consider a 8 gen console idk how im have a work or social life trying to play ps4/wii u/3ds it be hard but a gamer gotta do what a gamer gotta do… (T_T) im gonna be so broke..
Reblogged this on JxtremeGaming.
I was pretty hyped when I read Nintendo World Championship in the title!
But seeing that it’s a US only “World” Championship instantly killed the hype…
Very disappointing…

Nobody mentioned the fred savage movie “the wizard”….now I know you are all just a bunch of little ass bitch ass kids. HA
Did Nintendo seriously try to get a kid to kopy this kid? https://youtu.be/G7RgN9ijwE4
So have they said what games they are going to be? I am curious if this is actually gonna follow the real tournament during the finals. I am gonna assume its not gonna be a gauntlet style compilation game like the NWC cart and will probably just be people playing a bunch of different games one at a time (I will be surprised if its not). Also there was technically another NWC championship after the NES one that involved SNES games, but not many people remember that one, as well as some nation wide college tournaments in the US.
If its going to be anything like the original tournament and include three main games (and guessing they are going to be for Wii U) its probably going to be Smash Bros and Mario Kart (obviously) as the two main ones. The third one I am not sure of, maybe it could be Splatoon, heck maybe they could even directly rip off The Wizard and have Splatoon be the finals, a game very few people have gotten a chance to really play yet/hasn’t released, just like SMB3 in the movie. Maybe they could include a 3DS game as well into the mix. Pokemon might be hard to regulate with all the hacks out there, but I suppose it could be done (though I dont really see it working along side the styles of the other games).
If they actually are planning to make it a gauntlet style game like the original version I imagine it going like this:
-Super Mario 3D World: Collect X Number of Coins as Fast as Possible (if I remember right in the original it was 50 coins in the original SMB to move on to the next game)
-Mario Kart 8: Complete three laps on X stage (in the original it was Rad Racer and there wasn’t really laps (it played like OutRun), you just had to reach the end of the course as fast as possible to get as much time as you could on the final round to build up your score as high as possible)
-The final round I am not sure about. In the original it was Tetris and the entire point of the last round is to get as much time as you can on it by completing the previous two as fast as possible and build up your score (though of course you could also raise your score on the previous two games) The only game I can think of off the top of my head that could maybe be played similarity and is a big Wii U title would maybe be some kind of horde mode/score attack mode for Hyrule Warriors.
I am gonna say though it probably will not play like how I mentioned above/the original since I guess “going for the high score” isn’t really something cared about/even included in games anymore and it will just be a series of individual tournaments for each game. Though if they do make a special game/program for the tournament then god I hope Nintendo officially releases is to the public after its all over.
If anyone is interested in playing how the original tournament finals played (sure you just grab a rom/repro cart of the game) then check out the “World Tournament” mode included in NES Remix 2/NES Remix Pack. It doesn’t include Tetris or Rad Racer in it, but it does include some that were in the later tournaments (like Dr. Mario). Also if you have Tetris/Dr.Mario on the SNES the versus mode in that plays in a similar gauntlet style race way.
Then again maybe the teaser video is actually hinting that the tournament will span games from ALL across Nintendo’s history. Probably has no chance of happening, but I can dream. Would probably be the only reason I would actually even bother trying to compete in it. Haven’t really been keeping up to date on Smash, Kart or really any of the big Wii U/modern games in general with much of a competitive scene.
Oh well, at least I have a reproduction cart of the NWC1990 and I have managed to beat the high winning score from that!
that’s a good theory &analyzation
Pumped at level 1000 here.
Nintendo being cheap again with another digital event, it’s disappointing. It means they don’t have much to show.
1. So the past times they have done the direct they didn’t have much to show lol
2. Stop being stupid kid
3. I’m sure you know Nintendo likes to save money and they stated that before the first e3 direct and I’m sure many times before
4. Wait until e3 to see if they have nothing to show
5. I’m sure there are going to be several surprises just like the past e3 directs
i was hoping for a physical conference. :( …
But i guess they wont have many good announcements, so a physical apperance wont be worth it. : /
1. Stop being stupid and making a baseless assumption
2. Wait until e3 to see if they don’t have much to show
3. I’m sure there were several surprises for the last e3s you nor anyone else expected
You just love calling people stupid don’t you. -_- its very sad that your vocabulary is so limited.
1. My vocabulary is obviously more extensive but I just don’t feel like typing the words and I like to get straight to the point ya dumbass is that any better
So you number all these points, and you still have to type all that bullshit? Contradicting yourself aren’t you. -_- there you go again with the insults.
1. I put points because it is easier to read for other people
2. I have been doing this lol
3. With each point I get straight to what I have to say for each point especially if I have more then one point lol think bruh
Actually it looks annoying and pretentious. I usually just ignore them but hey, if that makes it easier on you (as stupid as it might look) then whatever, do your shopping list.
1. Then shut up then lol
1. See what I mean.
2. Did it really need the number?
3. -.-‘
I usually don’t respond to “nobodys” (People with no real account) but you can be an excpetion. Anyways… It’s not an assumtion, It’s mearly me being sceptical, hence why I said “I guess”. And unlike the other direct, this is only focused on the current year rather than looking forward, so chances are slim for somthing astounding and it needing to be released 2015. Either way, the last e3 was pretty much what was to be expected and this year could be the same. I’m not ruling out surprises but considering the bounderies, chances are small.
1. This is my account unless if I’m missing some customization options or something but I don’t care for that
2. You are always skeptical and how many times have Nintendo said something was just for the or just for that and we get much more information then just those specifics
3. I’m sure you know there will be surprises since Nintendo usually always has surprises and information on games we have only heard little information about
4. Just wait and see until e3 and that’s it ya dumbass
Lol… Whatever. :P
Ha ha

Come and check out my Nintendo T-shirts!! You won’t regret it!
The end of the video was hilarious. I really like the creativity in these commercials/trailers or whatever they are!
The ending made me laugh too lol
Is THIS the only E3 plan Nintendo has? There better be some cool, unannounced games revealed. Because THIS is completely insignificant, and only affects those who live close-by to wherever they’re gonna do the so-called tournaments.
1. Duh they will have unannounced stuff since every e3 they have had with the directs something we don’t know appeArs
2. Even you should know that
3. The tournaments may not mean much to a lot of people but e3 does and that’s where the games will be duh
4. Just wait until e3
Dude, don’t underestimate Nintendo. They won E3 last year, I’m expecting them to win it again.. Even though I’m really pumped about what Bethseda is revealing. If it’s Elder Scrolls 6 my head might explode..
Those that says ‘the NWC is an American only event’, I don’t recall there being a rule that only American gamers can qualify. Gamers from other nations can enter, but as stated, the qualification and championship rounds are held in the United States. So if you can’t get a plane ticket, your S.O.L.
love this skit felt retro and old school Nintendo is awesome Reggie is the man Nintendo should do more skits like this the ending your fired lol
