With no Mortal Kombat or Street Fighter on Wii U, this could be the only alternative to Super Smash Bros. I can't comment on Injustice, I never played it, though it looks nice.

YAY! More Wii U games lmao
Well, let's see with positive thinking:

2016 games
- Pokkén Tournament
- Zelda (maybe)
- Shin Megami X Tensei

Eeesh.. really hope it's not only three or four games (there'll probably be the yearly Just Dance and Skylanders but meh that's not the games most would want to play).

This game comes to stay for a long time in next generations, hope GameFreak take the idea to do introduce this kind of game to the main series, like trading our PKMN from XY/ORAS and fight :3 that would be really awesome, maybe they are testing if it works in the market, like the first PKMN Stadium released on Japan and then they made a complete game (with 700+ PKMN) on it :3

This was the first thing that I read when I woke up today.

Today's probably going to be a good day!

It goes to show that maybe Nintendo really is still hiding a few things that they didn't reveal at E3...

Looks like a button mashing version of Pokemon Stadium.
It's just Tekken with Pokemon characters. If you think Tekken is button mashing, then I suppose this is as well. You could also try to learn to play fighting games properly, though. Simply mashing buttons may get you past the AI occasionally, but you're not really playing the game at that point.

Man...did anyone else catch the twitch tournament stream ?

Justin Wong got beat twice by Pikachu and lost the final match ^_^"

At a high level, the "PRS" format has a nice technical touch.

Anyhow, will be keeping my eyes on the twitch stream for more news !!

    @K3Nv2, RIP Felix does great videos on the PS3 yellow-light-of-death.
  • Jayro @ Jayro:
    Eventhough the New 3DS XL is more powerful, I still feel like the DS Lite was a more polished system. It's a real shame that it never got an XL variant keeping the GBA slot. You'd have to go on AliExpress and buy an ML shell to give a DS phat the unofficial "DS Lite" treatment, and that's the best we'll ever get I'm afraid.

    The phat model had amazingly loud speakers tho.

    @Jayro, I don't see whats so special about the DS ML, its just a DS lite in a phat shell. At least the phat model had louder speakers, whereas the lite has a much better screen.

    They probably said "Hey, why not we combine the two together and make a 'new' DS to sell".
  • Veho @ Veho:
    It's a DS Lite in a slightly bigger DS Lite shell.

  • Veho @ Veho:
    It's not a Nintendo / iQue official product, it's a 3rd party custom.

    Nothing special about it other than it's more comfortable than the Lite

    @SylverReZ if you could find a v5 DS ML you would have the best of both worlds since the v5 units had the same backlight brightness levels as the DS Lite unlockable with flashme
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    but that's a long shot
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    i think only the red mario kart edition phat was v5
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    A woman with no arms and no legs was sitting on a beach. A man comes along and the woman says, "I've never been hugged before." So the man feels bad and hugs her. She says "Well i've also never been kissed before." So he gives her a kiss on the cheek. She says "Well I've also never been fucked before." So the man picks her up, and throws her in the ocean and says "Now you're fucked."
