There are a few things great about Japan. For one, there isn't a monopoly on coffee like in the US.

Starbucks exists but there are other brands and you can get bottled coffee for less than $1 with each bottling company having their own brand. Also easy to find in vending machines

I reliably get gmail notifications instantly but the problem is that it easily gets out of the "all inboxes" mode and that affects the email visibility. So if you keep going back to that, that may improve your experience. Assuming that's your issue

I was curious if they had her sing the classic songs too. Would be interesting to compare

That's cool! Do they play the old songs too or only the new ones with the new singer?

Even for Luigi's mansion 2, next level games had to install a secret room with padlock (same with vicarious visions). So withholding name until release is just an extension.

Releasing names before was also a tactic to show they were open to outside developers when they had trouble

Idk, Nintendo has so many public faces and they do the interviews. Other companies have only 1 public face. Capcom had more but they left long ago.

I think the evidence is more anti-leak especially based upon how secretive they always have been when a new project starts

12. Pokemon stadium

Loved the mini games and so do the kids.

Was also nice to play red and blue on the big screen.

Problem with battles is your opponent can see and guess your moves

Is that from the game that actually has a professor and companion?

Looking at the trophies should be enough of a check too

It's a decent enough game. Also has full voice acting

I had great luck with the eevee pack, but the new packs have been really bad for me. I winder if there is a seeding or something

Add to it that my kid is doing yet another playthrough of origami king

I think origami king gets undo hate because the fanbase wanted a more traditional RPG.

The writing is fun. The game is very strategic. And the game actually respects your time by letting you skip most conflicts and removing grind

Why Isn't Nintendo Revealing Its Partner Devs Before Launch? Wanted: Dev 'fore it's live

www.nintendolife.com/features/tal...

Article aforementioned

There's an article from Nintendolife that I think best explains it as it explains why they don't mind naming after release.

The gaming press and gamers work too hard for leaks so to avoid leaks, they obscure developers until release

11. Wonderful 101

No longer Nintendo IP, this was oneof the titles to be excited for asa wii u owner. I had fun time and jt was interesting they even included multi player

Great that the studio got saved after Microsoft shut it down

What a LOVELY question retro blast!
Wario land 4: fast paced platforming masterpiece
Minish cap: honestly top 10 Zelda game if not top 5
Pokemon emerald of course
Metroid zero mission: actually made Metroid 1 bearable
MegaMan Battle Network 6: insanely unique battle system I'm hooked on

I love gba

10. Pokken

Like rumble, wanted a real time combat system and this is now the closet. But I do find it a bit confusing

Yeah, that's how it's been in Japan for a long time.

Toshiba had good drives I recall. Now that part is a new company called kioxia

9. Swapnote

Stinks that people abused this cute service to do bad things. I liked exchanging notes with others

8. Dillon's Rolling Western

Among my least favorite of the 3DS IPs.

7. Detective Pikachu

I like mysteries. Even though this was easy, it was enjoyable.

6. Pokemon rumble

I really wanted a more real time action version of Pokemon and this was the closest we got

It and pushmo were the only ones to get sequels for some reason. I personally preferred Sakura Samurai from that initiative

To be fair, they used to own wonderful 101. I think platinum bought it from them. Looks like maybe a trade for Astral Chain?

Bayonetta is still owned by Sega. Nintendo just published and funded the 2nd and 3rd games

5. Paper Mario

I remember how in comic books, they had a paper Mario cutout advertised as a free demo.

Fun times. I think origami king is underrated

Yeah, same with Bayonetta.
