Guys. I'm feeling it.

A Wii U will be mine this year.

It's happening.

[Electric Crocosaurus]

I know what you mean Sean. I'd been planning to upgrade to a PS4 or XBone this Christmas, but I'm still not sold on either of them. If I pick up a Wii U, though, I get the new Mario World, Pikmin 3, Mario Kart, Smash Bros next year...

Of course all that could change depending on what's announced at E3

Mario Kart 8 is averaging at an 89 right now on Metacritic. It's gonna be a looong wait!

[dezm0nd]

A free, downloable Pokemon based around Streetpassing is coming out in Japan. It also has a similar aesthetic to Paper Mario...!

[dezm0nd]

Always forget that it's called Spiny Shell.

I, er... ummm

YES PLEASE.

Oh dear! This advert is amazing for all the weird reasons.

I'm quite excited for Mario Kart tomorrow I've been very impressed with what I've seen so far. It seems like we've been waiting for this one for a long, long time.

MAN do I want a Wii U.

Getting the digital version at midnight or soon after in the am. EXCITED!

Now all we need is Gamecube Virtual Console games!

Nintendo of America @NintendoAmerica

You may or may not have heard of Chibi-Robo but he is adorable! I remember playing the JPN Gamecube game and was completely smitten by it all.

Chibi-Robo! Let’s Go, Photo!

Everything's cute when it's titchy. Case in point – Chibi-Robo, a tiny robot tasked with filling an empty museum in Chibi-Robo! Let's Go, Photo! in Nintendo eShop on Nintendo 3DS and 2DS!

Check this beast out! If you've played Zelda: A Link Between Worlds, this will tickle your Zelda bone!
