That should answer that for you...

It's not technically, IT IS ripping people off.

I'm not sure, considering this is my FIRST REAL play through of the game. From what I hear, this probably just the game. I hear the HD collection has LOTS of content. May buy it for my brother in law.

I just think that Team Meat was starving for some more attention with that Binding of Isaac game, which isn't surprising in the least bit. How ignorant can you be about that? If you've known anything about doing business with Nintendo, let alone their history on this sort of thing, of course the game wasn't going to come out on the e-Shop. Besides, if they put it on there, and had buried it on the shop like Johnathan Holmes said COULD have happened, Destructoid, Team Meat, and all it's fanboys would be pissing and moaning about them not rolling out the red carpet for it. Much like Team Meat did even after having the front slot for like what, two weeks on XBOX arcade? Currently playing Snake Eater, and I'm loving every bit of it. For me, this game has justified the 3DS better than Mario 3D Land, which was rather meh, for me.

You don't look at much of what politicians say these days, do you?

I honestly have mixed feelings about Snake Eater 3D. I don't want to bother wasting money on the Circle Pad Pro until I see games other than like what, 5 for it? Before the inevitable redesign that'll come out. Other than that, the game was okay. So stupid that the 3D effect goes off when I'm in first person mode and aiming in crawl stance.

Let's re-read this bit shall we? I didn't say I was going to sell it anytime soon. All I said is that so far for myself, I haven't seen a very large amount to keep my interest in the thing. I don't doubt they'll show games at E3. Thank God they announced a 2-D Mario game for it, since I didn't really care much for Super Mario 3D Land. But if there's not much I see from the show I'd want to pick up, well, it'll at least be a good paperweight.

Honestly, if they don't show anything I find worthwhile for the 3DS, I'm probably going to sell the thing off. I'm eagerly waiting to play Luigi's Mansion 2, and probably picking up Snake Eater 3D, but other than that, I really don't see any incentive to keep this thing at least for right now...

If there was one thing I did enjoy from Twilight Princess, was some of the enemies and dungeons. The story was pretty good, but Zant was such a disappointment to me (his fight was pretty cool though). As far as 3D Zelda, Wind Waker will probably be my favorite of them all. Despite the overly extended sailing, the game is still enjoyable to me...

A couple of months ago, I was listening to a Diggnation podcast that discussed Netflix. They said since the introduction of instant streaming, statistics showed a significant decrease of downloaded films/T.V. Let's hope Netflix's experiment of making their own content will pay off, because if it does, it will really start shifting gears. And of course, watch all the cable/satellite companies get all pissy about it.

Oh, is this rich... http://arstechnica.com/tech-policy/news/2012/01/hollywood-fights-internet-protest-with-tv-ad-billboard.ars Like Hollywood is really going to get people on their side with this kind of typical misinformation...

And here I thought my state couldn't be any dumber, you just made it a "slight" bit better. I hate Paducah, the day I move away from here, will probably be just one of my happiest days of my life.

Considering I live in Kentucky, it'd be a waste of time to try calling Mitch McConnell...

They won't stop, they'll wait till nobody is paying attention and then try to get through legislation quietly. Just like they said parts of the bill and even the process to vote it in was off the table and waiting until February to bring it to the House. I find it ironic how quickly the ESA has been vilified, considering they're the NRA of gamers.

From it's Wikipedia page... The Gem System has/had the fighting community in an uproar. Especially since it's not an option to simply turn off.

http://www.mariowiki.com/Mario_Kart_7/Glitches I won't just give you one, I'll give you several. It seems pretty bad for there to be that many glitches, but since I have little desire to pick this game up at the moment I can't vouch for these. But the Wuhu Island glitch is well known now.

The exact problem with graduates in any field think they're immediately experts in a field they've barely started working in.

The quality of narrative/acting in games for me at least, is debatable at best. Though I do concede that they've made progress in the past few years. If you don't go see the movie post SOPA approval, they'll blame it all on piracy!!!

I'm beginning to believe that MGS 3D is going to become vaporware since it keeps getting pushed back with no concrete date. Also, the fact that the analog add on for the 3DS is supposedly exclusive to Gamestop sounds like it'll have an early grave...

Sunshine wasn't a bad game by any means to me at all. I'm not sure about Castlevania 64 because I've never bothered to play it. This is something that's NOT uncommon these days. A game that is being paid to be hyped to death gets showered with praise at launch. But then after being finished with the game, and the hype finally settled and long gone, you don't find the game was worth those 9.5's or 10's that game critics give out so judiciously. Gamers are entitled little brats. And everyone who is involved in game journalism, game making, AND in gaming culture is to blame for making them(selves) that way. I'm inclined to agree about games. I try not to demand much from them, especially when most of the games that have been released these past couple of years have not held my interest, or at least for very long. I've been delving more and more into older games. Games that I missed out on when I was being an die hard Nintendo fan nerd. Honestly, Mario 3D Land isn't a bad game, I even did a review on it on my web page stating that. I just don't think it's a game that is going to sway anybody who prefers 2D Mario games. Will 3D Mario fans eat it up? Absolutely.

I'm actually interested in this title now that I know the guys behind God Hand and Vanquish are behind it.

Not a bad Mario game. I just don't consider it the best Mario game ever made. This is also coming from someone who's barely played any portable Mario game, though I recently beat Super Mario Land 2.

Did you mean Sakamoto? If that happened, they might as well as put Nintendo up for sale then.

Some of the fools on the Destructoid review said the same thing (yeah, I don't care that North works for that site). But after seeing how horrible the voice acting was in Metroid Other M, Nintendo needs to keep their characters silent. Until they can get good casting or some good voice acting, there's no need for it. People will just have to read the dialog, and accept it. Then again, people don't like to read anymore.
