The Splatoon bundle is pretty impressive for $300. The Wii was $250 but no tablet controller, no HD, and almost no storage space, and no game(unless you consider Wii Sport).

Yeah, Super Paper Mario is more of an action game compared to the others. Thousand Year Door has one downside and that there is a portion near the end with lots of back tracking. That is inconsequential in comparison to the fun combat system and amount of detail added to the world and characters. Everyone single character you come across has a little bio you can hear about. I love it!

I hope to see a new Paper mario game for the Wii U. There could be a lot of potential to utilize the tablet to change the environment. Look at it kind of like those interactive pop up books. Use the touchscreen to pull tabs and open things up to explore more. That would be so cool!

Well, there's been a rumor going on, ever since yesterday, that Intelligent Systems mentioned a Paper Mario game, at a job expo booth or something.

Take it with a grain of salt, of course, but it's still neat to believe....

I'm crazy in that I really liked Sticker Star. Then, I actually enjoyed all of them, so grain of salt and all that.

I liked Sticker Star till the very end. I am at the last fight and I was having trouble with how I needed to use certain stickers to win.

That was a year ago.

Wait, wait, this Mighty No. 9 game is actually going to have a physical release? On Wii U? I figured it was going to be a Steam game or something.

And I just looked at some Mario Maker screenshots. My body is beyond ready.

Yeah, I noticed it already has a listing on Amazon the other day. Looks like it's going to launch at $30.

Wow. This is great news. I'll buy this on day one at that price. :D

That's why I'm buying it, when it hits 3DS. Mighty 09 looks like pure awesomeness taking the old MM style and doing something kind of fresh with it and unshackled from the dying beast of Capcom no less.

Is the Prime Trilogy worth downloading? I'm only interested in playing Prime 1 right now and I know it has added motion controls but I'm mostly interested in a graphical upgrade. Are the graphics sharp enough to justify purchasing? I still own it on GC so I don't need an upgrade but playing in 16:9 would be nicer than 4:3...
