This franchise is on my top 10 all time list on this site. Even if the commenters saying this games is actually "okay" would still bum me out. Reading how Brad feels about this game bums me out even more. After hearing about all the pre-release shenanigans and seeing Gamespots score I was going to wait a while before playing this but now I think I'd like to pretend it doesn't exist and move on with my life.
I'm totally in, and not even because of the features. This finally means that all of Nintendo's game design power will center on one system. Wii/Wii U didn't have enough games? Imagine what the combined library of the DS/3DS and the Wii/Wii U would look like. Nintendo (also Pokémon) put out enough Top 10 quality games a year that even if they never caught third party traction their library alone will make this console worth owning.
