    1. Don’t bash Sony. It attracts trolls. Just be proud for Nintendo’s Smashing success!! :D

      SICKR: If you and Alba have anything to do with the break in senseless, repetative Troll comments, Thank you. I’m sure it would have been a lot of work.

      And Seriously comrades, don’t throw “Troll-Bait” around by saying something Rudely negative about the competition! Pleeeeese? :D

      1. In not a troll, I’m just sick of people saying Vita is better than 3DS, even though it has sold less. (I know every system has pros and cons)

    1. All of my this.

      Seriously, ive bought nothing new in the past 3 months, other than Metroid Prime Trilogy, DKCR, and BioShock. Which is ok, means i got money saved up for the WiiU (clearly the other businesses thought this one out…)

  1. That many peopld bought Assassins Creed Revelations…..my thoughts and prayers are with those poor souls.

    And look trolls, Arkham City still sells! “buy it nearly a year old”. *rolls eyes*

      1. Dont know if made a Big Macintosh reference, or just likes saying Ayup.

        But yeah, of course it’ll sell, and its only 1 of the THREE ports. And even then they all have new features

  2. Ok guys, I have both, vita and 3DS and I can tell you than 3DS is only better cause there are not so many games for the vita, and before you say anything, no, I’m not a sony nor Nintendo fanboy, I’m just a gamer.

    1. Isn’t that the most inportant thing though? -.- i love how sony fanboys (not calling you one), just rant about specs, but never about any games other than saying “urrrderp Uncharted”. If Uncharted was on the ps4, id probably pass

  3. Dead island ? That’s still selling ? Oh wat a surprise …Nintendrones are cheering that their pieces of turds are selling ..they only sell in Japan ..Nintendos marketing is really shit ..so now they are actually making profit ..LOL THE 3DS PRICE CUT :) well enjoy ur shovelware u nintendfags :)

        1. Amir really did put a fucking hole in your ass, Ness. You really are an angry puta, huh? You like it don’t cha? Frankly, I don’t give a fuck about you or your boyfriend.

          1. Who the fuck is amir ? Go fuck revolution up the ass !! Faggot …oh wait u have no dick so u use ur wii motes as dildos …

    1. Sure hope your useless excuse of a person is not an xbox player. Our system is pure class and we don’t tolerate verbal beaver manure such as yours. Nintendo fans are smart and intelligent except an elitist few. You must be a Sony or PC fanfool. Xbox360 rocks.

  4. Being a Microsoft gamer, xbox rocks, Nintendo seems to know how to put their machines up there. Notice how the Wii is featuring with games, wait! The Wii NBA and modern warfare 3? Nintendo is really doing Well. The 3DS and DS are still moving numbers. My xbox is holding its own I really like that. Nintendo fans educate me on what Wii games I can get; don’t call me a troll like some fools did last post. Bought a Wii and want to know what great games are out before the Wii U arrives, is it backwards compatible with the Wii? That way I can give my younger siblings and cousins my Wii. I am xbox but a gamer also so calm your Mario Zelda and metroid loving selves down. Cause you might also play some class like halo reach, gears 3 and even Forza or RPG marvel fable.

      1. Am wanting to get into Nintendo gaming and you insult me, you beaver faced elitist buffoon. Nintendo fans are naturally good people, I guess every family have three nitwits. Just guide me on how to get good Wii games. Now go and take your meds; you and that Sony drone Aeolus skipped your morning capsules.

        1. Don’t worry about it. Now as for getting good Wii games, I would generally recommend going through Google with searches like Top 10 Wii Games of 20XX or something of that nature. Now, there are some games that I would recommend such as Xenoblade Chronicles, The Last Story, Punch Out!, Skyward Sword, Twilight Princess, Red Steel 2, Monster Hunter Tri, etc.

    1. Ha a new comer
      -Super Mario galaxy 1&2
      -Donkey Kong Country Returns
      -Metroid Prime Triloligy
      -Skyward Sword
      those are a few I can think of

    2. TheUNation I apologize for calling you names. You rubbed me the wrong way. The rest of you too thank you for the information. I played this game Red steel 2. Am addicted that game is awesome, didn’t know that Wii was that great of a game system. Swords were like real Samurai fighters. The story was intense and I can upgrade; trying though sweating like a banshee that lost sound lol. Have to play more xbox games to remind myself of my favorite console. Thanks again.

      1. 1 = first party 2 = exclusive 3- port
        1-Super Mario Galaxy 1&2
        2-Sonic Colors
        1-Donkey Kong Country Returns
        1-Kirby’s Return to Dreamland (there is a second run where it is harder)
        1-Super Smash Bros.Brawl (online is shit)
        2-Sin & Punishment
        1-Metroid Prime Trilogy
        1-Metroid: Other M (if you wanna see how good the wii can look)
        2-Epic Mickey
        1-Legend of Zelda: Skyward Sword
        2-Monster hunter Tri
        3-Resident Evil 4 (the best port of it.)
        2-Muramasa: Demon Blade
        1-New Super Mario Bros. Wii
        2-Tatsunoko vs. Capcom (online is shit)

    3. DEF Metroid Prime Trilogy. (2nd is my fav)
      Resident Evil Chronicles if you like time killing, zombie slaying rail-shooters.
      Download Zelda, Majora’s Mask!
      Download Bit-Trip Flux for some 8-Bit fun. :)

    1. Price. 3DS isnt in THAT phase yet where its completely pointless getting a DS. I want DS sales to go up so that it can become the best selling console of all time, it certainly deserves it seeing as its been out, alot less than the ps3 and it only a few million behind

        1. Make that the world. Forced abortions in China for population control, anyone?
          Humans aren’t sane anymore. It’s just that simple. Even the normal ones have underlying issues that make drama queens seem tolerable.
