They need to make another SM3DW before the people run out of the drugs they were on when they made the first game.

Actually the people who made 3D World were just very creative.

Whenever Nintendo takes drugs they actually make terrible games. I mean look at what happened with 3D Land. Tragic stuff.

Why does Toad sound like a chain smoker? I dunno what a talking mushroom dude is supposed to sound like but I wouldn't have guessed they'd sound like Toad.

My one dream (that will never happen) is a new Viewtiful Joe game on the WiiU. The game pad would be perfect for it

The DS Viewtiful Joe wasn't very good, it used the touchscreen similarly to how you might imagine the gamepad would be used.

Haven't they in a few of the Nintendo Directs announced that certain things would be available "at the end of this presentation" or something like that? I seem to recall that from previous NDs. I hope that's the case with the Mario Kart DLC. I want to play that Excitebike track so bad!

Just based on the dates for the Amiibo patch, it'll probably be out next week.

They'll probably drop an eShop game, if anything. Art Academy seems like an obvious candidate.

Pokemon Art Academy just came out so they might wait (longer) on the Wii U one.

It was leaked that the MK8 DLC would probably be available on 11/13. A reddit user tried http://mariokart8.nintendo.com/amiibo on a whim, and found some stuff that hadn't been publicized yet. It's since been taken down, but here's a snapshot: https://archive.today/xRFWx

"Probably" because who knows; it may have been taken down because they were planning on 11/13 but are unable to do so for whatever reason.

edit: just noticed that the page refers to a "software update" for Amiibo support on 11/13, which may not necessarily be the DLC update.

Yeah, I just saw that too. They could both hit the same day, but they wouldn't be dependent on each other, since Amiibo support is across the board, while you have to buy the DLC. So, they would have to make them available separately anyway.

They aren't just ports of the NES games, but rather wario-ware-esque challenges like say stomping a number of enemies, or beating a level with a time limit, sometimes they'll mix it up by making you play as a character from one game in another.

They're both very fun and highly recommended.

I really love the monster designs. They look so creepy and threatening but also very Renaissance.

For some reason I really enjoyed the part where a new boss-monster appears and you learn its one-word name.

NES Remix is super awesome since it's a series of hundreds of minigames made up of small fragments of old NES games. However, you might want to wait for the disk release with both games on it which should be out in a month.

NES Remix also forces you to get good at and learn the tricks in games you never got to as a kid. So I didn't know Joe Glass's OHKO trick in Punch Out until I played NES Remix.

Eh, it varies. Some of the games are still pretty unbearable. Remix 2 is better with that because it has very few games like that in it.

No idea on the length, they're usually about 45 minutes to an hour.
