Holy crap, a virtual console for the old GB and GBC games?! Totally bought! ...When I get more funds, of course.

I hope they release the old Dragon Quests~ Particularly III. I love that game! :hyper:

Yeah, those were good remakes. The GBC version of Dragon Quest III was better than the original, at least in my opinion. It's been a long time since they were released, too. I hope Square Enix does put those up on the VC.

My opinion about the recent Nintendo consoles and handhelds keeps being the same: it is just an underpowered hardware with some gimmick to create some fuzz and tons of old and new Marios and Zeldas to sell.
A person only sees and hears what he wants to see and hear and disregards the rest.

This one is kind of lacking in Marios and Zeldas so far, though. I believe it's the first Nintendo system to launch without a Mario game released at the same time.

Here's some news about a new game for the Nintendo 3DS that will be out in June. The game is called "Tomodachi Life", and it looks like a lot of fun:

I never could stand the look of the Miis. They look like deformed children.........with facial hair.

Same here : I've never tries to make a MII, both on my WII and then 3DS : for me there is absolutely none interest at all..and still..like I was saying before (yes too many times !^^) I don't play online so...

I'll admit. I laughed hard at the video. But I agree, I don't like the look of the Mii's and I never could make one look like me either. If I ever buy this game it would have to be in the $10 bin. Don't think I could go any higher than that. The game looks like an Animal Crossing mixed with The Sims. Not sure how I feel about that.
