I…I can't find Rosalina & Luma available for pre-order anywhere!!! *panics*

Target has it listed online, but unavailable.  I would just check that once a day and hope it doesn't sell out too quickly once they allow orders.  I thought about checking on pre-oreder in store sometime too.

As for me I am making a point to get the characters I want and no more.  So Samus and Marth obtained, Ike preordered and Rosalina to be preordered.  Now I just wait for the other FE characters and ZSS to be announced.

I am fairly disappointed this is digital only.  I would have  picked up a physical copy already, but $30 for a digital version is pushing me to wait for a sale.  I am not arguing value exactly, but as someone that has never played the series I don't find having it on my system attractive.

In 3 sentences, what is gamergate?

A very VERY oversimplified explanation is exposed game journalism corruption and blame games.  Some big name writers called gamers some unflattering stuff.  Social justice warriors got involved and it turned into a threat filled cesspool.

I love pretty much everything about Curtain Call and the online is a great addition.  I will say I am surprised you did not mention the new controls in this game.  Having the option to use touch, button, one-handed, or hybrid while playing was a huge improvement in my eyes.  I tend to use touch screen for taps and holds and the circle pad for slides.

We all have different likes, but I think we can all agree, **** League!

Nah, League is great.  One of my most played games!

There is one major feature being overlooked about the GCN controller.  It is wired and currently will be the only wired WiiU controller(that I know of).  Any competitive setting needs to be wired to avoid interference, input delays, and syncing.  Now this might not impact the majority of players, but with Nintendo's increasing support of competitive Smash this seems to me to be an efficient way to solve that problem and placate the Melee masterrace.  I'll be using a GCN out of preference and preference only.  I didn't enjoy using the WiiU Pro, if it had impressed me I might have honestly passed on the adapter.
