So the Wii U is getting the plain jane N64 version of Ocarina Of Time, even though they could port the prettier 3ds version over, minus the 3d?

Go fuck a sloth, Nintendo.

Some interesting news bits

Blast Ball is only the Tutorial in Metroid Federation Force With an Intriguing Story Promised - game appears to not be this casual multiplayer thing after all?

Warner Bros aware of Arkham Knight PC problems months ago, report claims

Supply chain players gear up for new Nintendo NX "Mass production will start in May or June 2016, while the console's official launch may take place..."

This is from Digitimes who talks to component manurfacturers. They say that the NX will be sold from July 2016 and production will start shortly before WTF?

Supply chain players gear up for new Nintendo console:

Japan-based Nintendo is planning to launch its next-generation games console in 2016 and has recently asked its supply chain partners to start pilot production in October, at the latest. The console will be manufactured by Foxconn Electronics (Hon Hai Precision Industry), but Pegatron Technology is aggressively trying to snatch some of the orders, according to sources familiar to the plan.

Pegatron and Foxconn both declined to comment.

Nintendo in March announced its plan of releasing Nintendo NX in 2016 and has started visiting its supply chain partners recently. The orders are expected to be finalized in February or March 2016 and mass production will start in May or June 2016, while the console's official launch may take place around July, the sources said.

Nintendo reportedly is looking to ship 20 million Nintendo NX in the first year. The shipment volume of Wii U is estimated at two million units in 2015, according to Digitimes Research.

Component suppliers such as Foxconn Technology, Macronix, PixArt Imaging, Coxon Precise Industrial, Nishoku Technology, Delta Electronics, Lingsen Precision Industries and Jentech, are also expected to land orders from Nintendo for the new console, the sources added.

If they're expeting to sell that many units they're either just as delusional as ever, or it's a sort of smartphone.

Nintendo retracing their steps and saving face based on E3 impressions?

No, Blastball was always the tutorial. The article  makes it sound like the game would have been a normal FPS but the producer of the Prime series has always been bad at shooters so they game has more environmental puzzles based around shooting and that it will actually be a more traditional Prime like game? But with co op.

Mexican amazon yeah. El amazono. Well, selection of stuff is quite limited but it's still leaps and bounds better than what it used to have (ebooks and...that was about it).At the very least I can now order PC parts faster and cheaper than with my usual etailer. I think I'm gonna pop my amazon cherry with a few PC case fans.

Grinning Splatoon tower control is an orgy of fun Grinning Sooooooo good.

Dang, must have played about 13 matches in a row. Won about 10 of them. This new mode is so fun! Grinning

There is this moving tower you have to jump on and ride out into the enemies territory. Only they attack you and seize control. So there is this great feeling of attack and counterattack, this ebb and flow.

In turf war you are mostly off doing your own thing, in splat zones you have to wait around once you've secured the area. In this mode, everyone is convening around this moving tower so the feeling of working together as a team is there and it is EPIC.

There's nothing like the feeling when you are the last man standing on the tower and there are a few metres left. You can see the enemy taking up vantage points to shoot you, you duck behind the tower post and pop out and shoot. Then win at the last second. SO MUCH FUN! Grinning

Or you duck behind enemy lines and flank them from behind as your team mates on the tower ride on home to success. Grinning

The existing arenas have been rejigged a little for this mode so you suddenly appreciate the verticality of the levels. The Kelp Domes grating surfaces you can shoot through suddenly become all important and when you are riding the tower you are fending people off from above, below and all around too.

Suddenly the weapon system shows it's genius. Sticky bomb guys are assholes, they just lob one onto the tower and you're screwed, so I jump off, shoot them from a distance then retake the tower. The strategy! Grinning Or I use my seeker bombs to draw a straight line ahead of me where the tower will move. Rollers are pretty useless now here too. Finally Nyaa

I'm still grinning 20 minutes later after playing this mode, it feels like childhood Laser Tag x100. This game deserves to sell as much as Mario Kart. The multiplayer is supremely fun, I will bereft years from now when the servers are dead. Must have a sequel!

Gaming subreddits set private after admin is 'fired'

Well that clarifies a lot. Last night I tried to go to Askreddit to get some song lists and saw it was locked down. Not to discount any injustice on what's going on, but damn Reddit mods are the most butthurt people on the planet.  Whenever they're unhappy it's "to the gates! Lock the forum." I'm glad Yoda's not a douche.
