    eShop: If only they'd release...

    I don't know what others are waiting for but I'm hoping for: Wii: - New Super Mario Bros. - already released for EU and Japan eShop - Pikmin 2 - already released for EU eShop - Excite Truck (Excite Bots sort of suggested that they may do this) - Mario Kart Wii - no idea here. Just kind of...

    Nintendo Land back in the eShop

    It's still listing as "Retail only" but it allowed me to purchase it and it's in my download queue. So, either it's a glitch and I got through or it's just back on the eShop again.

    Donkey Kong Country Returns (eShop)

    I don't want discs. I don't want the clutter. I happened to be thinking about whether Nintendo has released DKC Returns (Wii) in the eShop for the Wii U. Turns out they have... I could even have gotten it free!... a month ago. I don't mind that they offered it free and I missed it. It just...

    N64 game and NDS game in eShop

    If you don't know, they finally released their first Virtual Console N64 game: Super Mario 64 They also released a DS game: Yoshi's Island I'm glad they're starting on both the Wii and N64 libraries (finally). They need more of them! The DS surprised me but it kind of makes sense with the...

    Would like to see SNES, GBA, and DS games...

    It'd be nice to see SNES, GBA, and DS games come to the eShop for the 3DS.. Just make sure they're all playable off of the SD card so it doesn't take up system memory. I know some GBA games (I think 10) were released to the initial purchasers of the 3DS as a sort of, "We're sorry it's not doing...

    Nintendo Store

    I went looking for one of those horizontal game pad holders like the one that comes with Wii U Party. I finally thought about checking Nintendo's store. There it was $4. Not bad. I don't remember seeing it before. Other interesting bits: - the larger Game Pad battery is no longer listed. -...

    Wii U Improvements Needed

    As if they'd ever read this forum and take advice: 1) Don't make me set the time/date. Set it via the internet. Maybe have me select whether I live in a DST area or not but that's it.. This also needs to be fixed on the 3DS. 2) Folders. It's great that you add another page when I buy enough...

    Wii U is a success - sort of

    Interesting thing about the Wii U: In all of the talks about the Wii U being a failure for Nintendo and what it was that they could have done better, I haven't seen, "Yeah, I'm sorry I bought one," but instead a lot of, "I'm glad I bought one." (usually preceded by a ".. don't get me wrong.."...

    Vitual Console in the menu

    I just want to shout this from the rooftops: Thank God that Nintendo got rid of the horrible pulsating title squares on the menus. On the Wii you'd get a 3x4 page of switching between: "Nintendo Entertainment System" and "Game Title" and you'd be trying to find something and it took longer...

    MiiVerse - I'm not getting it.

    So there's the MiiVerse. It looks like it's a graphical Twitter for the Wii U. I don't get what the point of it is. People post things I don't care about (much like normal Twitter). Games ask me to post things that others don't care about (I've disabled that in the games). It's appears to be...

    VC Games transferred from Wii to Wii U

    I spent some time trying to figure this out (Google and general forum searching) and it's still a bit of a mystery to me. I get the, "Let's use an SD card to transfer the account over from the Wii to the Wii U" Then it loses me. Do the games that are on my SD card in my Wii now just work on...

    I hate blocks

    I picked up a 3DS XL recently. I like it a lot. My rant: I hate blocks. I don't buy 232K blocks of an SD Card. I do what everyone else does and buy memory in terms of GBs (or MBs, as the case may be). I, and everyone else, can do the math that if I have a 32GB card and a game takes 1.2GB...

    Wii Bomberman - how to get out of Dodge Bomber

    I seem to keep getting stuck in Dodge Bomberman. It tosses me in there while the other players are finishing their game - fair enough. Then it tells me, "A n-player game is possible.." but I can't get out of Dodge Bomber? No button presses seem to work. What am I missing?

    Atari Anthology Evolved - unlocking 2600 games

    Did anyone ever figure this out - without accomplishing the mindless tasks for each of the arcade games featured in this set? I'd love to play some of the old 2600 games - they're all right there - I just can't get to them. I hate the stupid unlock crap in the classic games collections...

    PS1 Game Freezes (You Don't Know Jack)

    So I put You Don't Know Jack in when I have some friends over. Game will play for a while and then freeze. It's random. Disc is pretty clean - not 100% out of shrink wrap but still clean. So, I remember there was a setting on the PS2 for adjusting the disc loading speed (faster but not as...

    DS Lite Onyx

    Is there some sort of supply problem right now? I'm looking for a DS Lite Onyx and all I see are the blue and (somewhat rare) red/black versions.

    Fun multi-player games (WiFi)

    I use my DSLite to play multiplayer games with my daughter (lives with her mom) since 50/50 visitation means ~5 days/month for me. This gets me 'around the system' to a certain extent. She's had a PSP for about a year and I just picked one up play some more games with her. We both have ATV...

    Guitar Hero III - Dongle!

    Not sure if anyone else picked it up. I was considering it but backed off at the last moment. In reading the reviews on Amazon people have stated that, while it is true the guitar is wireless, it needs to have a USB transmitter/receiver plugged in to the PS3 to work. It doesn't use the normal...

    Just heard on CNET: Buzz Out Loud

    The PS3 was outsold last month by the GameBoy Advance. I'm beginning to think the end is near for the PS3. I think it may be the Atari 5200/Dreamcast of this generation. The Nintendo GameCube had better consumer appeal. I like my PS3 and, even if all of the PS3 stuff dries up tomorrow, it...
