              Idian is still asian, so i’m right.

            2. (Indian-Trini) has african and asian ancestry. India is a country in south asia. Do your research before replying.

          1. GOD MOTHER FAKING DAMMIT U FAKING BITCH! I THOUGHT WE FAKING DISCUSSED THIS FAKING BULLSHIT B4.GET UR FAKING ASS IN THE FAKING KITCHEN AND MAKE ME A FAKING SAMMICH! ERMAHGERD WTF R U DOIN ON TEH INTERWEBZ WHEN I DUN HAVE A FAKING A SAMMICH IN MAH FAKING HANDS.

            if its good i might do somethin good for ya ;0

            1. Can somebody please translate whatever the hell you just said? I searched google translation but there’s no option for a “retard” setting.

      1. NO! Much more drastic than that, i say TAKE IT TO A VOLCANO AND TOSS HER INTO THE HOT BURNING LAVA

        This way it won’t breed, simple really.

  1. Like always, it’s many states away from where I live. I’m left out of absolutely EVERYTHING in life.

  2. Awesome! I get to play the 3D World demo for the third time now! Best game ever! *no sarcasm*!

    1. Did you like it?

      I didn’t play, but I saw people doing it. It’s a OK game, as far as I could judge.

      Way worse than Galaxy 1 and 2, though.

      On the other hand, Bayonetta 2 is amazing! Graphically stunning and excellent gameplay.

      1. You can’t POSSIBLY say it is WAY worse than galaxy 1 & 2 if you haven’t even played it. I highly doubt it WILL be better than either, but I’ll leave that till I actually play it. To say its “way worse” though cause you saw others playing is not a fair judgement at all. I can watch pikmin 3 for instance or any other game and watch live gameplay online, but until I actually touch it myself, I have no clue how it will control, or how much fun it will be.

        1. My bad. I take that back.

          It’s just worse than the Galaxies. Just worse, not “way worse”.

          I should say instead that among all games that were playable at Nintendo lobby at Comic Con International this year, 3D World was the least appealing for me, and that’s it.

      2. It was great! 3D Land is better than both Galaxies and 64 (not Sunshine) and 3D World trumps all of them with very fresh, new, and innovative ideas. It made even galaxy seem stale. Well, at least the five levels I played.

        1. Well, I’m glad you like it.

          And definitely you’re in a better position than me to state the impressions about 3D World. I could have played it, but I decided not to, Silly decision, actually. I will look for another chance to do it.

        2. 3D Land was good, really good for a handheld but I’d have to disagree about it being better than both Galaxies. The platforming and creativity were the same.They are basically the same but the galaxy games were bigger in both contents and worlds.

            1. Well you’re a Nintendo fan so of course you still think that about Nintendo even after the horrible Wii.

                1. Don’t listen to him, he is clearly a blinded fanboy who fails to see the success and greatness in Nintendo.

                  1. I remember you. You are that person I argued with solely about the Wii U years ago, you were all excited, so now… how is it, is it everything you wished for? Of course it wasn’t, you barely have any 3rd party support.

                    1. I think you’re a little bit bitter today, Aeolus.

                      It’s ok you don’t like Nintendo. But there is no need to be ironic with those who like. Get over it.

              1. Ignoring Metroid is hardcore and Pikmin stepped its game up from “E” for everyone to “E” +10. Though I can’t see the average ten year old able to take such strategic thinking in Pikmin series period.

              1. Donkey Kong is becoming their most difficult franchise. Donkey Kong Country Returns was downright brutal, and I loved it.

              2. I cant beat that game at all. And hell yeag that game fun as fuck!!! Makes me understwnd the gamepad at its better potential.

  3. Bring the demos to wii u for the dumb fucks like me that supported it from the start -.-

    1. Other than Fire Emblem Awakening, Nintendo never has demos of their games on the eShop. Don’t know why, but they do. So don’t get your hopes up for demos of those games (and BTW, demos usually don’t come out until a few weeks before the full game comes out. Just saying).

        1. Yes, but none of them, except Fire Emblem Awakening, were first party title games.

    2. I told you guys not to support that console, it’s nothing but a glorified PS3. It still seems better than the Xbox One however.

      1. You can’t be the real infamous Aeolus, that was said to be a myth.
        Anyways, I’m sticking with WiiU for the exclusives that are to come and PS4 for its exclusives as well and the multiplats too.

        1. I don’t know any other Aeolus, you should of seen all the sheep on this site last year before the Wii U was coming out. I told them Wii U will fail, It’s nice to know that I was right.

          1. They just can’t accept that WiiU is in a tough spot right now. I own a WiiU and can admit that as much as I want it to succeed it isn’t looking good right now. WiiU will ultimately become what the Wii was for me, a system just for Nintendo games. PS4 will most likely take up most of my gaming time.

    3. You will get demos in a very advanced way. It’s called the finished product. Much better than any demo out there.

  4. Still disappointed about Super Mario 3D World and Donkey Kong Tropical Freeze. 3D World looks like New Super Mario Bros in 3D instead of side scrolling. I still don’t know why Nintendo was hiding Retros game as if it was gonna be mind blowing awesome. They could have just announced it along with the new 3D mario and mario kart before E3. Why the need for it to be kept a secret?

    1. Don’t get me wrong Donkey Kong Tropical Freeze will most likely be really good, but I know for sure that the hype of Retros secret game did not deliver and most if not all were disappointed.

    2. I don’t think anything Retro announced would’ve pleased the rabid hype. No matter what it was there would be a group of dissatisfied people. But I agree, it was really stupid of them to hype up the game like they did to only have it revealed to be Donkey Kong. But either way I’m excited for it since unlike 3D World it looks to be a good improvement over the previous game.

      1. I still can’t believe that EAD is developing 3D World. I was hoping that the core Mario 3D games would stay as a single player game (yes galaxy technically had 2 player but it was mainly a single player game). We will have to see how it plays out but so far I’m disappointed. The E3 trailer just looked like New Super Mario Bros in 3D.

        1. At least they said they’re still interested in making another single player Galaxy style 3D Mario. But yeah, very disappointing. The retro style hype I had for 3D Land has worn off, I was ready for a huge adventure. It was fun when I played it at Best Buy but that was mostly just because of the multiplayer, which I won’t be able to take advantage of since no one in my house would want to play as often as I would.

    3. Concerning SM 3D World, it looks like SM 3D Land, but in HD.

      I think it is obvious, anyway. Unless Nintendo surprise us with a strong, solid story line, good soundtrack, and challenging levels, I don’t believe it will be a paradigm-breaker game.

      But DKTF is outstanding. I know that most of us were waiting for a new Metroid, or a new Star Fox, but DKTF looks gorgeous.

  5. I’m excited for Donkey Kong and my first play through of Wind Waker. 3D World not so much but I’ll most likely still get it.

      1. Super Mario 3D World is more than an HD 3D LAND… it’s a sequel to the original one… but added a mix between that and Super Mario Bros. 2.

      2. It will sell millions, Aeolus. It’s Mario, after all. No matter how it comes out, it will be a new Mario game.

        In a way, this high fidelity is terrible. I don’t see Nintendo trying to improve Mario games. I already said this a while ago: see what Ubisoft made to Rayman, and see what Sega is doing to Sonic. They are delivering so much novelty, and it’s good.

        Nintendo needs to provide again the huge leaps observed from Super Mario 3 to Super Mario World, and from 64/Sunshine to Galaxy 1.

        1. “Nintendo needs to provide again the huge leaps observed from Super Mario 3 to Super Mario World, and from 64/Sunshine to Galaxy 1.” Well looks like we will never see a leap that big again, And of course it will sell millions, because Nintendo fans like you will eat up anything Nintendo shits out.

          1. “…it will sell millions, because Nintendo fans like you will eat up anything Nintendo shits out.”

            Did you really read my entire comment?

            1. Why of course I did, and I partially agree with you. I do not see Nintendo improving Mario games at all.

                1. Okay I may of misjudged, but my point still stands, Most Nintendo fans will eat up anything Nintendo makes, therefore raising sales.

              1. I don’t agree with neither of you. Nintendo always improves, and i believe Nintendo will again with their future installments. And don’t hate Nintendo so much, remember they revived the gaming industry.

                1. That’s true, they did. But that was long ago, Nintendo was my platform of choice up until the Wii so don’t assume I always disliked Nintendo, as a matter of fact, my favorite console is the GameCube(I believe I told you that before). Now in this day and age Nintendo is nothing but garbage.

                    1. Guys, please, you are being so hard on Wii.

                      It has sold over 99 millions units worldwide, allowing a great profit to Nintendo; it has a fantastic first-party gaming library; it made people who never hold any controller in their hands to start gaming; it introduced Wii Ware, which allowed us to buy and play classic games from several old platforms (including NES, SNES and N64), as well as nice indie games; last, it introduced the concept of motion controls. There are other reasons by which people should love their Wii, but the aforementioned ones are compelling enough to state that Wii definitely has a hallmark in the video game industry which will never fade away.

                    2. I wouldn’t try to argue with 7 people if i were you. The Wii surely wasn’t bad though, but there were many things wrong with it.

                    3. @Nintendofan55

                      I’m ok with it. English is not even my first language (I’d say it’s my third). Also, I’m not good in writing, and whatever. But I was amazed by Wii from the very first time I saw it, and I’m so proud and glad for the opportunity of owning one.

                  1. Well, not intirely true. Studying “the big 3” (the console wars) from my books, yes no joke, books of video game design and watching them all closly, the 3ds is still riegning surpreme over all. If you ask me, they still are saving the gaming world when the ipad gaming tablets threated the gaming community by saying “we are the future”. Too me, that was a rumor but seems to be true when all 3 picked up their problems and sorted out all the junk (still got lots more junk but hey). I lost respect to sony when they tried to copy off the wii (still play the system if I had it still), and losing some respect to nintendo for coping xbox. Xbox ain’t so honest either by coping both but in a very different way, the kenect. Too me in that sence, none are proving a dam thing accept who to target and why, but a true gamer plays all reguardless and always find time to do so. Not one system taking most of their time, not some on one system, not some on one game and then play most of your favorite on a different system…all of the time. Meaning one day, playstation, next day, nintendo, next day, xbox (if you can afford their live), and repeat reguardless if the game looks horrid or not. You simply can’t look and judge, you got to feel it. People like fanboys, drones or whatever you call them, trolls getting all butthurt because their system is getting whooped and go around with no life to piss off others will never truly understand what it means to be a real gamer.

                2. I have a profound respect for Nintendo and I like this company in several ways.

                  But when it comes to 2D Mario franchise, specifically, I don’t see any effort to bring new experiences to gameplay.

                  Also, all my hype has gone when I see SM 3D World being unveiled. I was expecting something as big, venturesome, innovative as Galaxy was when it was first seen.

                  But, again, let’s see if Nintendo can surprise everyone and make SM 3D World a well worth game.

                    1. They don’t, and they won’t.

                      Things are what they are, like it or not.

                3. We are all grateful that they revived the gaming industry but it doesn’t mean we can give Nintendo a pass for every time they screw up. Trying to ride on the Wii’s popularity was a terrible idea and that $350 price tag didn’t help. It was just like the PS3 being overpriced and hoping it can ride off of PS2’s success.

                  tl;dr Nintendo does not always improve and needs a price cut for WiiU ($250).

                    1. Wait what? I never mentioned xbox on… its just easier to call you stupid and move on.

                    2. who’s N-Dub Nation? y don’t ya calm yourself down and deal with it for a change

          2. Anything Nintendo shits out? Ignoring virtual boy wasn’t a success even when Mario games for the console debuted.

    1. As for Donkey Kong, I played Returns recently on the 3DS and that was right before the big reveal. Maybe that’s why I’m more disappointed in the reveal. Wind Waker HD looks good so I’m getting it but partly because my WiiU library needs games.

    2. Don’t let that Cell Shading fool ya. Wind-Waker was amazing.
      I was “Cell Shading? Nintendo ruined Zelda!” then after playing it I was like, “That’s one of my favorite Zelda’s ever!”

      which is the only reason I’m giving “A Link Between Worlds,” a fair chance…

      1. I never complained about the cel shading. The game looks beautiful from when I saw it in person at Best Buy.

      2. same here, if it wasn’t for wind waker, I would have never giving zelda a chance all because I was a mario fan boy back then. I played smash bros. alot and I always faced link samus and dk. Link because I felt strong to his relation to mario (was wrong), Samus because she was awesome, and DK for revival of the rivals plus was a DK fan. When I saw wind waker, I was like, “what’s this junk, a link to the past is the only zelda game for me”. I said “fuck it, I’ll give it a shot and return to my SNES/GBA legend of zelda”. I was wrong and blown away, I found out that I loved to pirate the foes on the platforms…then those Fucking Redeads.

        1. Wind Waker was my first Zelda Game. Can’t wait to play it again. I hope I can beat it in time for Zelda U.

  6. Maybe he would have believed you if you spelled my fucking name right, you retarded piece of shit.

  7. I just preordered cod ghosts.assassins creed blackflag and watchdogs all for the wiiu today from gamestop and they said tons of people did so hopefully ubi and acti get the sales they want and support us better.
