Hey I'm kinda confused, our family wants to get Mario Party 10 when it comes out but do you absolutely need amiibos to play it or are they just for unlocking stuff?

They unlock some pretty cool stuff:



First time I'll be tempted to "catch 'em all", as they say.

Who the gently caress doesn't like to customize their character. I'm pretty sure messing around with cute video game outfits is a primal human instinct.

I loathe it. I don't want to do the character designer's work for them.

They did do the work, by designing the outfits and then having them modelled

Assembling them still feels like work, not like fun gameplay.

SM3DW is OK but not great, I 100%ed it but sold it immediately afterwards because I don't have a desire to ever play it again. The Mario Kart homage level is the highlight.

The best game on the Wii U right now is one of the following:
*Mario Kart 8
*Smash Bros Wii U
*Hyrule Warriors
*Donkey Kong Tropical Freeze

It's between SSB4, DKCTF and CTTT. All three are absolutely magical in their own way.

It almost makes me wish he were in Smash even though I've never played a Chibi-Robo game before, but I'll hopefully be able to play the first one in the following months thanks to a friend of mine.

Maybe he'll be DLC for SSB4 after Lucas

Oh man, best addition to Yoshi's Woolly World, you don't have to get every collectible in one go. If you're only missing one item, if you redo the level you only have to get that one to get 100%.

Wooly World is good despite too much invisible poo poo. It is easier than Yoshi's Island BUT you don't have regenerating health so if you're reckless a shy guy might actually kill you

I did encounter an irritating bug. On the first level with the chain chomp, about half way through the game started freezing a little bit every few seconds. It lasted until the end of the level. Kind of concerning when a Nintendo game has a problem like that. Fine the rest of the time though.


edit: my favourite wooly moment so far was seeing a miiverse post on the loading screen that said "WHERE IS BLAST BALL"

It's spelled woolly with double l

I beat Paper Jam last week and I feel like it's a very bland and average title. Not offensively bad like Sticker Star or Partners in Time, but it gets weighed down a lot by obnoxious Paper Toad fetch quests, no original characters, and the Papercraft battles just being boring.

Yeah everything the Paper Mario half of the crossover brings to the game (Paper Toad searching and chasing, the godawful Papercraft battles) just bring the game as a whole down. Paper Mario sadly continues its streak of suckage on the 3DS.

By this point I'm actually hoping it's an NX title. And it probably will be - it's simply a bad business decision to release it this year. If you were Nintendo, which of these seems smarter to you?

1. Launch a massive exclusive (maybe the biggest exclusive?) on a system you're planning on making obsolete in less than a year
2. Use a massive exclusive to drive hype for a brand new system you want people to buy on launch day

Twilight Princess was in the same situation and ended up releasing on both the current and next gen platform at the time, the same could happen with Zelda U.
