Someone is live blogging Mr. Iwata's comments: http://twitter.com/gibbogame Just some highlights so far: - Iwata apologized for the bad financials. Says this year will be the worst financial year in company history. - They hope to turn a profit/break even on 3DS hardware in Q3 of this...

Mario Kart 7 was released here in Europe on Friday, but seeing as I have a North American system, I have to wait for the American release tomorrow ((fuck you, Nintendo) and for Amazon to take about a week to ship it. Region lock-hating aside, I'm really looking forward to this game (spent...

http://www.joystiq.com/2011/06/08/farewell-friend-codes-wii-u-to-have-single-gamertag-and-friend/1#commentform I think this is worth an entire thread. There's two rumours I've seen, the above and the second one being EA's "Origin" service serving as the basis of the infrastructure. ...

Our beloved mighty thread has yet to make a reappearance, so here's the unofficial sequel till it makes its triumphant return (IF it does). Aussie issue...what the hell is the problem with AFL Live 2003? I don't understand why it's being released on Gamecube all the way in December 2002 when...

I was almost tempted to dredge up one of my old sales threads but that really would be a blast from the past. Anyway, I have a couple classics for sale. If you're interest in either of them, send me a PM. I'll be doing things the old fashioned way here by asking for a check from any buyers. ...

IT IS NOT AN INSTANT MESSAGING APP, I DON'T CARE WHAT THE INTERNET TOLD YOU But it's a fun little drawing program thing that lets you send things to friends! Except I haven't received anything from any friends except one who got it in Europe way before me. I sent a bunch of crap to some of you...

Hi All! Been doing this every year for a while now so figured why not continue the tradition. This year let's just talk about the games/media we played/spent time on. If you wanna detail why you're talking about said thing, please do! Or you can be like Jonathan and post one-character...

This was one of my favourite games of 2010. It comes with my highest recommendations. The style and music are outstanding, but what really makes the game is the simple flipping mechanic and the challenge. It also has a small amount of openness and exploration that usually isn't present in a lot of...

So I am guessing nobody really knows this but I'm taking my chances that Cory knows because he's Zelda Nerd #1: what is the nature of this second playthrough thing that Skyward Sword supposedly has? Is it Wind Waker's decipher-the-Hylian-plus-alternate-outfit thing or is it an actual...

So yes, we're getting the two big hitter Mario games for 3DS in November/December, but there are still a bunch of DS games I want to get/have been meaning to do so for a while. Kirby Mass Attack - out recently in NA...minigames alone just look so fun and I'm worried about sprites all but...

http://www.neogaf.com/forum/showthread.php?t=456275 I can't really take advantage of this because I'm not in the US right now, but figured someone on this board might be interested. $5 a pop, you could have all three of them for $15. Can't beat that. That's iOS pricing.

http://www.neogaf.com/forum/showthread.php?t=456505 The franchise has fallen out of favor big time, but if they go back to more of a fantasy/mideval setting, I'm down for it on Wii U provided this happens. Would make sense. I was thinking Final Fantasy VII Remake for all platforms too, but...

So I bought Circle Pad Pro yesterday night thinking I liked the look of the grip and I'd be able to play Mario Kart more comfortably with it. It feels great in the hands! I set it up in there, figuring maybe the extra slide pad and the additional Z buttons wouldn't work but at least the R button...

Figured a dedicated thread here would be ideal, no need to stay in that mega-3DS thread forever. I got what I think is my first SpotPass EVER: the alert that the update will indeed be arriving tonight. Interestingly enough they said that it might break Ridge Racer, and that another update...

So....Pushmo. By Intelligent Systems. Why did I not know about this earlier? Why no promotion from Nintendo? You can't even farking SEARCH for it on nintendo.com, you have to manually navigate via the menus...sigh! Pushmo - US6.99 Pullblox - AU$9.00 Pullblox - £5.40 / €6.00 Has anyone...

So...I finally invested in a PS3 (after owning a number of its games for a while now). Its main use will be as a Bluray player, but I've already bought Street Fighter HD Remix and Burnout Paradise from PSN. Firstly, I had some misconceptions about the PS3's D-pad. It is TERRIBLE for Street...

Let's talk about books. You read 'em, if you know what's good for you. I'm considering an e-reader sometime soon. I would like to wait until color e-ink is up to par, but... well, whatever. Recommend me something. I got nothing. Well, okay. I like Red Mars a lot. It is a hard sci-fi novel...

Nintendo's annual conference in Japan is scheduled for September 13th. While usually the show is scheduled in October and considered a general Nintendo products exhbition - announcement venue, Iwata has dedicated the entire event to the Nintendo 3DS as a measure of severity and aggressive...
