Another zombie game? Seriously, wtf is up with all these Zombie games? I wasn't even interested in Zombie-U, which btw looked a million times better than this turd based on the screenshot.

@QuickSilver88 do you have a source for your claim? I have an NES reproduction of DK: Complete Edition. I made it to the fourth barrel stage once but I died. However, it should be interesting to see how the "Pie" level stacks up with save states. People who are way better at DK than I am have expressed complaints that the Pie stage is impossible at later stages of the game.

Until I watched one of those awesome Let's Compare videos on YouTube today, I didn't know this was a sequel to Ghouls 'n Ghosts. Back in the early '90s, I either didn't know about it at all or just assumed it was the SNES version of the Genesis game I already had.

I hate to hear about slowdown, but I'm going to have to buy it. I can always track down the PSP version that has the slowdown removed later.

I'm not a graphics freak, but to be fair to the other consoles, processing power influences much more than graphics, influences stuff like like quality of AI, number of enemies you can have on screen and size of environments you can have without resorting to loading screens, all of which are very important to gameplay

We are entering into a time & point of diminishing returns when it comes to video game graphics, (their will most likely never be a huge graphic's jump as in comparison as to the jump from 2D to 3D like what happened to the SNES to N64). The day of Oh My Gosh Look at Those Graphics!! Are coming to an end.

@SuperSah well XBOX uses 3 gigs to run the mod Windows 8 version and about 1-3 gig for Kinect sound and mic always on input. So really Ram is not big of a difference when soooo much stuff is running on the xbox. Nintendo uses 2gigs on game. remember xbox 360 or ps3 had 256mb ram. Ram not that important because all game dev's were priasing the wii U 2 gigs when it came out saying it is more then enough.

I'm happy for those looking forward to this one! Always good to see some Super Nintendo love on the VC. That said, won't be downloading this one. I own a boxed copy for SNES, and I don't love the game enough to double dip. Though save states /might/ sway me in the right direction... maybes if it's on sale.

The first Megaman I ever played. I did not smash the cart because it was not mine. At that time I had little more to do than playing games, so I could still beat it and get the infamous Hadoken power up. I still prefer X2, though.

@MeWario Yep without those casuals who went to tablets after they got bored of the original wii they need to get more of the hardcore crowd but hardcore gamers have standards they want all the cool new third party games and sadly nintendo is not getting it done

We get a lot of exclusives on the wiiu, more then on any other system.
I dont get it why people are so worried in the first place, nintendo always try to show us new innovative ways to enjoy our games. I'm enjoying my wiiu more then any other system ive ever owned. (ive owned them all sinds the 8bit nes)

No worries people keep your fate it will be rewarded^^

@Diz93 @Diz93 @Varia01 Really glad to see guys stepping forward who appreciated how good Metroid:Other M was, my little disclaimer was because the game has a "marmite" reputation (peeps either loved it or hated it) and I wanted peeps to judge it on its visual merits not just their opinion of the game. I loved it though definitely one of my top Metroids. Couldn't play the Prime series due to simulator sickness which is one of the reasons I hope the next Metroid is 2.5D like M:OM. If Nintendo can get graphics anywhere near the CG cutscenes in that game we're in for a real treat. :)

And thus the pointless search for photo-realism continues.

I wish more developers focused on stylised games rather than realistic ones. We haven't even seen the tip of the iceberg of the styles the HD generation can come up with, yet we're moving on. These huge game budgets make sure our games look as pretty as they can, but often forget to account for a game actually playing well.

QuickSilver88 commented on Dying Light Set To Skip Wii U:

People I think some patience is in order conerning these 3rd party titles. Let me explain. I honestly believe we are in a new dangerous era for gaming and consoles. I really don't believe any console this gen will match the 70-100mil units of the last generation. First off notice how so many multiplats are still supporting current generation and I think this will continue a few years. This is really a detriment to new hardware sales.....used to be a big incentive to upgrade was new content exclusive to new systems. Honestly major publications can't afford to skip current gen and their 100mil plus userbase. I have heard direct statement from both Sony and Micrsoft execs saying this generations grafx leap is not going to be that big and its not about grafx......so I think some people will be underwhelmed and decide to stay put. $ony and M$ are going head to head...same launch window and presumabaly similiar price points. Add to that they are getting so much of the same conten and mostly aiming for the same gamer and they are going to end up splitting those people. In some ways I think the fact that M$ launched so early and it took $ony almost 2 years later to gain momentum with ps3 was a plus for gamers and the manufacturers. I think this is why M$ is trying so hard to appear as something more than a games machine hoping to ad value for feature conscious buyers. So here is what I see....they canabilize each other and all these devs so eager to put all the same 3rd party titles out on all systems get lackluster results on the new systems.....meanwhile I will be shovked if WiiU doesn't get some great content in the next 18-24 months as well as price reduction. I also believe it will be first to 10mil and then 20mil units and it may suprise people but I think it may end up winning this round...maybe. Eventually 3rd party may grow some nads and decide to do some things with the U unique features and burgeoning us base......at worst we get GC which had some really great content and some great 3rd party like RE, Timesplitters, Tales of Symphonia and amdecent amount of multiplats alongside Nintendos own gems...i just don't see the great reception others anticipate and their are far more gamers but way more choices.....these systems will evtually penetrate but not as soon or fast as devs hope/need. Also I think comsumer unfriendly policies may hold people back. Not everyone plays online or cares much for DLC....the used issue is big as in addition to multiple gamestopsmin my town their are seveal Mom and Pops that are built on used media sales. As a gamer and consumer I like choices and options not restrictions....the way Microsoft is heading you wont ever really own hour games, you will just be paying $70 for the right to play it.

Yes eshop is okay but it could be a lot better, I want nintendo to give us more content try hard to get us extra or exclusive dlc because it seems like the other console are getting way more attention while nintendo keeps the wiiu trailing behind

Nintendo focuses on selling me Nintendo, as in their exclusive games and unique experiences while playing their games.

PlayStation 4 focuses on selling me a complete, uninterrupted gaming experience with no load screens and instant play while a game has just started downloading, ridiculously detailed and beautiful graphics powered by the Unreal Engine 4, connectivity to other players (one example being that I can remotely play someone else's game from my house who requests my help with a particular game/level/etc.), and epic gaming experiences in the form of inFAMOUS: Second Son, Deep Down, Drive Club, Destiny, etc. among other things. The controller even reads where you are in the room and adjusts the split screen based on what side of the TV you're on. People complain about PlayStation not revealing their console, but they really did. They just didn't show the box it is all wrapped up in. Not to mention it is backwards compatible AND completely supports and encourages indie developers to develop games for their conosle AND doesn't require you to be online to run the dang console. Pop a game in and play, and for older PS3 games, just prove you bought it with it's code or something and play it as you're downloading it, or just straight stream it. Newer PS3 games work on the PS4.

Xbox One focuses on selling me my T.V.. That and it basically tried to take everything negative about PC gaming and slap it on their console with no real positives to make up for it. So, other than trying to sell me my TV, they're trying to sell me a computer that's no were as good as a basic laptop you can buy these days. You'd be better off buying a computer. Also, the "graphic demo" it showed during it's reveal were PS3 graphics. Don't believe me? Go look up Beyond: Two Souls. That's a good game that shows the PS3's potential.

What more should I say? Why would I need anything OTHER than a PS4 and WiiU/3DS?

I am always jealous of the fact that I can't get excited about Mega Man games. Zero appeal to me, and I own way to many and tried way to many times to like them but I can't. That being said I hope all your Mega Man retro wishes come true, and everyone one of them comes to the VC. Far be it from me to hope only games I want to come to the VC. That would be selfish :P.
