Since RPGs always win if they're on there, I'd suggest we first decide RPG yes or no then select the actual games

I'd be happy to second Advance Wars Black Hole Rising if it was on VC. I bought the original when it came to Wii U. I love the idea of a GBA VC game. As stated earlier I'm going for Metroid fusion or Minish Cap because I didn't play either, but some of the others suggested would be good too.

Aggreed. Coin Rush in NSMB2 with online ghosts would be amazing.

AGREED!

I'm not sure why people are so skeptical about Xenoblade X coming out this year. It's been almost five years since the original came out in Japan; if anything, I think it could be considered worrisome that we've seen as little of it as we have.

Not worrisome, the less we know about a game like that, the more fun it will be once we actually get it. That's why I refused to watch the tree House play it during E3

When Addison Webb mentioned Co-op on Mario Universe all I can think is I really want it IF we get 2 screen co-op (where player 1 uses the Gamepad screen and player 2 uses the TV screen) I LOVE 2-player co-op like that!!! I can't believe there aren't more Wii U games that do this simple thing!!!

I have to agree with James. New Super Mario Bros 2 was more fun because of the score attack mode. My wife and I spent a long time trying to beat each other's scores where we didn't have near that much fun with coin rush on U. The best part of U was actually called super Luigi

I'm going to throw in a few ideas rumbling in my head lately:

Mega Man 10
Zombi U
Legend of Zelda: Minish Cap
Metroid Fusion
Pilotwings Resort
Resident Evil (GC or HD remake)

I missed Metroid Fusion and Minish Cap I'd love to participate in either (although I'm guessing I'd like Minish Cap more)

TalkBack / Re: How to Improve NES Remix

« on: December 31, 2014, 02:23:23 PM »

I disagree with a lot in this article, but the thing I whole heartedly agree with is getting a free virtual console game if you get 3 rainbow stars on everything. I coulndn't get myself to master NES Remix by going back to get the rainbow stars because there was no point to it, but if it gave me a free VC game for 100% this game I'd be all over it.
Come to think about it...Nintendo should do that with all their first party games. Everyone complains that they don't have an achievement system, people would stop complaining if they got a free VC game everytime they 100%ed a game! I'd actually have a reason to go back and 100% Mario 3D World (which I haven't touched in quite awhile)

Kirby games already had certain powerups in them that allowed you to break the game at several points anyway.

Once again it's not meant for you and me. It's meant for my 3 year old

What you call "break the game" I call helpful to my 3 and 5 year olds. People like you and I won't use them just like we didn't use the white tanooki leaves on Mario 3D Land that appeared when you struggled with a level

I'm excited to see Kirby 3 and the original Metroid on there. If I had enough coins for it I'd get either the shirt or the smash Bros poster, but I don't so I might settle for the 2 games

Is this a Midnight release? In other words can Santa hop onto our Wii U when he comes and download it so that it's ready to go when the kids get up or do we have to wait for a specific time when the eShop is updated on Christmas day to go check it out?

« on: December 15, 2014, 02:01:09 PM »

If they made the Gamepad significantly better (like Dr. Metts has advocated for on RFN) or significantly cheaper (such that they could then lower the price of a new console) then yes I'd believe that they would do it, but I doubt they'd waste the resources to do it if it wasn't a significant change and I don't think making it slightly smaller would constitute significantly better

I was in Jr. High when this game came out and to me it was just like Zelda II (a zelda game that looked too weird and crazy for me) so I never touched it. However, now I'd very much like to play it so I fully play on get this on 3DS.

The only fire emblem game I’ve ever played is Awakening. I LOVED AWAKENING!!!
I’d love to try some of the other games in the series…Kind of wish it was on 3DS though as I’m going on a cruise next month and we’ll have 3 boring days at sea which would be perfect for a game like this.

Yes I'd love to hear that they are extending the deluxe digital promotion, but I don't think it'll actually happen
