Yea they cheaped out on the rewards.
I made it to gold & picked Zelda 2 even though I know it sucks just because never played it.
They could have put better selections out.
& where the hell is Square VC games? I want to play Secret of Mana on my Wii U -
Despite the retroactive hate it gets today on gaming forums Zelda 2 is actually pretty underrated. Just like the original changed the scope of overhead games Zelda 2 influenced a lot of 2D platforms that came after wards in terms of level design and game mechanics like combing RPG elements with platforming elements. Something like Shovel Knight (one of the best games out right now BTW) would never have happened if it wasn't for Zelda 2. It's one of the more challenging games in the series too.

Zelda 2 was garbage

? that Best Buy deal bruh.
Its instore only so i went to my local Best Buy and their shelves were empty as ? .
They were kinda lackin to begin with but these ? weren't even prepared for this sale.
? terrible. -
Been in a Zelda mood. Finished Wind Waker HD and playing A Link Between Worlds now. A very nice change of pace. Wind Waker is great for what it is. A very slow, stop and smell the roses kinda game that provides a great sense of adventure and character...but ? it can get tedious at times, even with the excellent Wii U version modifications. ALBW though. Story takes off and you can have all your items and be in the first dungeon within probably 15 mins. And the gameplay. Dat 2D Zelda feel with the new wall paint mechanic. Link to the Past was always my favorite Zelda, but I thought nostalgia might've had a lot to do with it, but nah. This is the kind of game you don't want to end.
Playing OoT 3D next to see how it holds up. -
Thoughts on twilight princess?

Mario Kart 8 DLCAccording to the Nintendo UK Store, Mario Kart 8 will be receiving two download packs with the first one being released this November.
The packs will contain three racers, four vehicles and two cups with each cup featuring four tracks apiece. As they have only been shown on the UK site thus far, the price is currently set at 7 pounds, which is about $12.
Pack number one will release in November and in a surprising development, it will feature Link from The Legend of Zelda series as a playable character. The other two characters in this pack are Tanooki-Suit Mario and Cat-Suit Peach.
The second pack, which comes out in May 2015, will feature the Villager from Animal Crossing as well as Isabelle from the same series. The third character will be a Mario Kart veteran in Dry Bowser.
While not a ton of info is known about the tracks or vehicles, we do know that another Nintendo franchise will also be getting representation. Captain Falcon's Blue Falcon, from the F-Zero series will be one of the new Karts. On top of that, it appears that there will be courses based on F-Zero, Animal Crossing and The Legend of Zelda.
For those that buy both packs, they will also receive alternate colors for both Yoshi and Shy Guy. These can be used right away.
DLC always seemed like an inevitability with Mario Kart 8, and while a bit pricey, it will be nice to have 16 more tracks to choose from. On the other side, adding non Mario characters to Mario Kart is a bit of a slippery slope and something in the future Nintendo should avoid getting too crazy with.
Regardless of how you feel about DLC, it is something that Nintendo has clearly been more open to in this generation. It is yet to be seen what the future holds for Nintendo, but at this point DLC in other series, such as Super Smash Bros. certainly seems like a possibility. -
$12 for all this is a crazy deal. It's like 1/2 a game.SuperSoaker wrote: »? champions road....,
I just got to this & i'm not ready. ? is hard -
Better be 16 NEW tracks, though, no recycled ? from previous games.
Need some originality.

I saw Nintendo officially announced the death of the Vita on Friday.

When's hyrule warriors dropping?
And do you y'all think they ever/should release a full out console Pokemon game? Like have all the regions and ? . -
Hyrule Warriors is supposed to drop in a couple of weeks.
You will never see a mainline Pokemon game on a home console. Remember that Nintendo doesn't own the IP 100% so they have to be in agreement with their partners regarding Pokemon.
The reason we haven't really seen another attempt at something like that since the Gamecube is because Gamefreak and The Pokemon Company (which is 2/3 of the IP owners) feel that it's a series that only makes sense on portables by it's nature. With the trading of creatures and especially competing against random challengers anywhere you may be which gets limited when you restrict it to the internet and the living room. Judging by the lackluster response to their Gamecube experiments when they once tried to do that their theory may be right. -
Damn. I didn't know Nintendo didn't own all of the Pokemon rights. What GameCube game was it that they made?
I'd think it's do good if they really went all out and put that Nintendo quality behind it. Same format release two games where you would need to buy both or trade with the other to get all Pokemon. -
yeah i didnt know that they shared ownership either.
On that topic, Im surprised nintendo or sony or even ms havent bought out the Dragonball z franchise. -
Legacy of Goku>>>>>>

Pokemon had both Colosseum and XD Gale of Darkness on GameCube. Don't think either of them did that well.

See @MorganFreemanKing's post. They actually sold over a million each but compared to the 5 million plus sales of the mainline games it was seen as lackluster. Didn't help both games case that they had mixed reception from reviewers and gamers either.I'd think it's do good if they really went all out and put that Nintendo quality behind it. Same format release two games where you would need to buy both or trade with the other to get all Pokemon.
Theoretically it sounds good but again it's pretty much appealing to the non-Pokemon audience when they do that and that's an audience that doesn't exactly flock to the IP. For better or worse the Pokemon fanbase has been greatly conditioned to accept the handheld format as the only viable format for the mainline titles for almost 20 years now.
For that reason I think the only Pokemon game you will see on Wii U would be a port of that Tekken and Pokemon mash up that Nintendo and Namco recently announced or any other spin off.
