The wireless features wouldn't work, but the wonder mail ones would probably still work.

I guess you could post those codes over at Miiverse and see if someone goes for your aid.

[up]This makes me sad. They're the only AAA company out there frequently putting out colorful, arcadey games. If I didn't want a Wii U enough already, this makes me want one even more. Has the NX been confirmed to be backwards-compatible with the Wii U? Does anyone think they're going to make any announcements on that?

We know basically nothing about the NX.

Nintendo had no major releases in that period, they're not collecting much in licencing fees, nothing from subscription fees, didn't sell much hardware aside from the 3DS Pokemon VC bundles, and Miitomo is garbage. So that seems about right for Nintendo.

To be fair, Miitomo isn't really garbage. It just has very little for someone to do other than read their friends answers and dress up their Mii. That lack of substance is pretty much why the userbase of the game steadily dropped since the first few weeks of its launch.

It kind of reminds me of if someone tried to make Ask.fm into an app but didn't include anything else.

This video had a rather critical segment about Miyamoto:

What say you? Should he have less say in the game development process at Nintendo?

Eh, he's not exactly wrong about what Miyamoto has been doing, but it kind of goes off topic to bash about him before reverting back to why MN 9 flopped.

Also, you're falling back into your old habits of just sharing the negative opinions of others without sharing your own.

Devil's Third online multiplayer being shut down on December 28th, just a little over a year after the game's launch.

It also got price dropped to $30.

Considering it was often referred to as "Devil's Turd" by those who played it, perhaps that's not such a bad thing.

Super Mario RPG is dropping on the eshop tomorrow.

Maybe this means Final Fantasy "II and III" will follow soon.

I still have some semblance of hope that Tingle's Rupeeland could hit the eShop.

If VC only, probably. He was received fairly well in Hyrule Warriors(it helped he kicks tons of ass in it). The trope isn't nearly as realistic as it used to be. But then again, a lot of it is due to how much of an ass he is in WW compared to the other games. It could go either way, honestly.

Yeah, his dubious nature in WW was explained and implied due to first meeting him in Windfall's prison, and how Ankle and David Jr. describe him. And there was the case of Four Swords Adventures, with taking force gems you were careless to leave behind.

I don't really count his prices for chart translating among his offenses in WW, because there's literally no excuse to not be swimming in Rupees unless you were trying to speedrun for some reason.

In some trivial news, Satoru Iwata's the featured page on Wikipedia today. Guess the owners were aware it's been a whole year since his passing.

Well it's about time. At the same point in the Wii's life cycle that the Wii U is in it had NES, SNES, Nintendo 64, Genesis, Master System, Neo Geo, TurboGrafx16, and even Commodore 64 games.
