AWKWARD ZOMBIE

Whoa, free games? Well, now I'm pop flyin' that I bought a 3DS back when OoT3D came out. This is awesome.

I bodaciously said "eeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee" irl I'm so excited aaa

Oh neat looks like I'll get some free VC games.

Wait, free games? Aww yeah time to open that thing up again and get some free games. Its a shame, I don't use it all that often. Probably because I'm doing sooo much fuuun stuff in Arizona. Oh well.

Maybe Nintendo should've waited until they had some proper launch games after all - though selling the 3DS at a loss just because of their recent sales reports to me seems a bit of an extreme reaction.

Man, at first I thought they were still making a profit at that price, but now I feel bad about this.

It's the sales of games which keep a console going in the long run - sometimes companies sell platforms at a loss with the aim to make a profit elsewhere, so I wouldn't be too concerned.

Of course the drop in price could also mean they're aiming to quickly sell existing 3DS stock because they're going to release an improved 3DS model soon (3DS Lite - HOOOOOO!).

If you seriously have to ask why it's an argument then you're too indoctrinated in Nintendo's propaganda.

And yes I'm serious. So far all I've seen are rehashes and existing IP's I care nothing about. I don't want to play another Mario/Star Fox/Icarus/etc game to the tune of $170 + however much the game is.

Better for them to sell at a loss then make really nothing off them.

>don't want to play another Icarus

Are you fucking kidding me? There have been two Kid Icarus games. Twenty years ago. This is nothing like those.

This is their new IP.

Might as well say one game. Myths and Monsters was really bad and most fans ignore it.

Still don't want to play it. I want RPG's. A deep and immersive story with characterization for all the main players. So far there has been a serious dearth of those in Nintendo's lineup.

As to Kid Icarus, stopping its franchise in its young days of the Golden VG Era, only to bring it back 20 years later when games have progressed to a point where every detail the developers want you to know can be shown? Dang, Nintendo, smart move. Now if they could only make Ice Climbers a new game, with the grittiest storyline this side of post-apocalyptic fiction. "As the blizzard whirled around the two friends gripping the edge of the rock-solid glacier, wind whipping their thick, fur-covered hoods, somewhere very deep in their hearts Popo and Nana knew one of them must go..."

My ears are still ringing with the news, but with the amount of campaigning going on to bring it back and the fact that there's a game company who has shown interest in continuing the project, it seems there's still a chance. A small one, but still a chance.
