Nintendo Land Review | GamingBolt

"Sometimes things get left behind. This became true of our attempts to review Nintendo Land. In amongst the usual Christmas rush and our intense desire to bring you as much Wii U launch coverage as possible, we weren't able to get out a review for, what was arguably, the system's most publicised launch title. Coming bundled with the console's deluxe edition, Nintendo Land is to the Wii U what Wii Sports was to the original Wii: A collection of mini-games designed with the sole purpose of showing off the new system's hardware."

wait so the reviewer says it has no levels then proceeds to say it needs a save feature so he wouldn't need to replay levels? seems legit.

6.5 is a little low for his game. much like wii sports it wasn't ever promoted to be anything in depth. scoring it low due to this islike scoring tetris low due to it lacking game modes. and the replayablilty comes from collecting everythin much like trophies or achievements on the other systems. only true downside to this gameis no online.

If they're not important enough to be held on their own official storefront then they're not important enough to give your money to Nintendo.

Buy these, physically, used or simply emulate them.

This article comes off as nothing more than advertising games that Nintendo, themselves, don't care to offer you... buy now!

Wait hang on where all the outrage? I swear when Sony tried to do this with PS3 last year. There was outrage from all corners of the gaming universe.

Why does no one care Nintendo is doing it?

MadLad790d ago (Edited 790d ago )

There has been.
A lot of it.

Simply type in "3DS" in Google and tell me what you see.

ocelot07790d ago

Oh I have a fair few websites reporting on it. But where is the outcry on here? I remember their was 2-3 approved top voted articles when Sony announced they where closing the PS3 store. All slating them and not caring about customers.

I should of worded it better. Where is all the outrage on n4g?

MadLad790d ago (Edited 790d ago )

N4G is a fanboy site, mainly frequented by only Sony.
Microsoft is their direct competition, so you'll typically only see articles that are made to rile up those fanbases.

Nintendo does it's own thing, so they're rarely brought up, aside from their fans. The most you get is the same typical two or three posters claiming Nintendo is only for infants.

If you come to N4G for educated discourse and reasonable discussion, this isn't the place. Sad as it is.

It's lame that it is shutting down. Now I feel rushed buying all the rpgs I missed out on the system.

You guys know that even archive.org has 3DS roms, and all other console roms. I'm downloading 846GB of 3DS roms and will add the best games to my soon to be soft modded New 3DS 😁. Might as well throw in DS and other emulators in there to. Guys this would be the best way to play and enjoy the 3DS. Just need to buy a bigger micro SD card and format it to FAT32, which you can if it's even 256GB or larger there are ways.

This should help if you want to soft mod it excellent guide and up to the latest and probably last 3DS firmware update: https://www.youtube.com/wat...

Wii U Games We Want to See on Nintendo Switch

The Wii U had a bunch of great games that a lot of people didn't get a chance to play, so here are the Wii U ports gamers would like to see come to Switch.

I just replayed Super Mario 3D world and loved every minute of it. I really like how it looks and it is great fun to play, it surely has to be a strong candidate for a Switch remaster although, personally, I would love a Galaxy 1&2 remaster more than anything else
