Mario VS. DK is kind of the black sheep of Mario series, isn't it? Even big Nintendo fans seem to be unaware that they're even still being made. But I can't really say it's unsurprising: The concept really is pretty clever, but it's just copy/paste work. Even the recent for the Wii U looks, acts and sounds exactly like the DS game from years ago, and the advertising tries to focus mainly on the online mode that has also been around for a few years already.

E3 getting pretty close now. I've heard the Animal Crossing team is apparently behind Splatoon, but I'm still keeping my fingers crossed for the Mario Kart DLC being intended as hype for finally seeing the game in HD. New Leaf is easily among my favourite games.

A new one has been made? And it STILL looks like the ones from the ds? Hmm i should see videos about it on Youtube
EDIT: Saw the E3 Announcement trailer. Yup it looks like Mini-land Mayhem
Heck The music playing is just a remade version of one of the soundtracks from Mini-land Mayhem
And nothing much is new

I tried as a kid through emulation but never touched the sequels which for some reason they don't appeal my attention. Probably because it must be almost the same thing as the original.

Hey guys, I'm wondering if importing amiibo worth it? I've seen some relatively cheap rare amiibo on Amazon, most of them not going over $26- $30 (which is what I wouldn't pay for an amiibo), and they're all from Japan. I've seen that all of them have free shipping as well so it's tempting. Should I import amiibo?

Considering that Amiibos are region free and that only different thing is logo on package, I say yes.

Personally I'd always look up some customer reviews about the site you're ordering on, but apart from that, sure why not?

I'm currently using Amazon seeing as it's the only online place that I can use my debit card and they all have five star ratings with mostly positive reviews.

Same here, I have around... 30 games for the console. Meanwhile my SNES is around 70. Heh, hope to reach at least 100 for both!

After I'm done with these summer classes I'll apply to some jobs and make some good money over the summer.
Also uh... oh shit, Splatoon comes out in two days, right? It's hard for me to be hyped with so much college work, but cool! That'll be fun.

I envy you that in the states, collection video games espacially from the older generations is way easier to come by with your Goodwills, FleaMarkets and etc. People here usually throw their games either in the bin or sell it for profitible prices :/

Can't wait for muthafuckin' SPLATOON, BEYOTCHES!

Also, I'll be waiting in line at Target to get the 3 Pak amiibo for Splatoon while also hoping to get the Jigglypuff amiibo.

Don't think I'll be able to play on launch sadly.

I'll be competing in a Smash tournament on Saturday and I have to set up my Wii U at the game store Friday, dunno why that's just how it is. If anything I'll be able to play Splatoon late Saturday, but I gotta study for an exam as well, it is what it is. College is more important than vidyagames. Hopefully I'll find time to play.

Also, lol. Those silly scalpers will do anything these days!

I'd think Brad would want others to experience Splatoon too. He's higher than that.

Lol, now I remember why being a Nintendo fan is literally the worst. Fucking scalpers, manchildren, and drones.
Staying a Nintendo fan is hard, they still make excellent games.
