No yeah point taken Arron oh were just debating brother no worries.. Well I believe you gotta have deadlines if not ... No product... To me pressure even if a little is necessary ... I just feel some of these devs ( not all) are getting free capital without any real commitments

@aaronsullivan
Exactly my point all these points are valid and should be disclosed but hey I understand most donors just interested in the game itself and if the actually devs put any thought to the actual $$ needed ... In other words actually planned the business out...
Either way lets see how long his mechanism lasts ... I personally think its great but some norms should be put in place...

I don't mind the idea if there were some actual financial numbers thrown in to educate me on the actual costs... It seems every project has a different magic number.. Nothing wrong with that just give me at least an expense report..

Hacking in general is a term used to loosely nowadays ... Pretty impressive reverse engineering...

@Pod
Understood It would be nice to know how much are these costs???

But hey if it costs over 100k to port a game to wii u then that's fine to ask such a high amount

@aaronsullivan
I understand your point but most people myself included are not planning to quit our current careers to embark on this one

@Einherjar good point ... It would be nice If they release an expense/income statement to justify their amounts .. Like every other company ... Is there any contracts or guarantees .. ???

They need to come out with another smb2 game ... Definitely one of my favorites ..

Thanks for the review Darren!

I'm definitely gonna dive into this one.

@MadAussieBloke
Awesome pitfall was my first love mate!

I'm definitely feeling the positive spirit from all of you.. That's awesome!

More games please I'll take any at this point

Well I don't have a 3ds yet.. So I'm definitely getting this

@Burning_Spear
Good point I would give them a try if one of the titles was on VC.

@Rief
Congrats! go for for it!

Nice collector's item but not style ... Kool though nonetheless

hm EA's story is getting juicer by the week .... i still believe major restructuring is in order... they might make some games for ps4/nextbox but highly doubt it...

@dragon_rider
Lol that's true but I actually have a soft spot for donkey long

Awesome hopefully US has the same lineup

@rjejr

love the watchmen comparison a definite classic

i just want a release date .. I wouldn't be surprise if nintendo decides to wait till 1st quarter 2014 with all the big titles coming Q4

Will get Rayman challenge mode for sure... But was hoping for some super Mario world action on the gamepad ...

@Burning_Spear
Agreed

Well I'm not taking ubisoft's decision personal... As long as the new demo is good... Budget permits I'm getting this game...

Kool

@StarDust
Wow that is a lot of systems... Nice

after playing arkim city i'm really hyped up for this game... and i personally liked the little touches the gamepad did for the game vs the other versions..
thus i can't wait!

@JFug
Honestly, I believe that to be be norm in all consoles right? Be patience though more retail games are coming Q3.

Nice game ... Hopefully I'll be able to pick this up in the summer????

@Slapshot
I personally think your argument like this article will be irrelevant once the wii U sales pick up this holiday season... EA will then get on board once it makes sense

Personally I think EA is getting to big for its own good... We will see how EA performs in the near future.

@SCAR392
Agreed honestly at least in the us most of my friends who only have a system for madden or FIFA are definitely not interested in Nintendo ... They are just sports heads... Honestly If its not for me they have no clue about the wii u...

Kool definitely looking forward to his next project ... Love the projects suda seems to come up with...

@LittleIrves
Well said though I don't have a 3ds honestly I don't have time to play the games anyway I just finish playing runner 2 and looking forward to another title coming out this summer if not ill get Lego city. ... In other words relax everybody games soon come..

Nice! The music should bring back memories for me

Nice hopefully the game will come across the pond by summer time looking forward to this....

101 for me and the other platinum game

@zeonox
Yes!!! I miss tecmo Super Bowl!!! Now that was a football game..

Honestly I don't know why hasn't Nintendo at least offer some of the merchandise in the store online... Or even mimic the Disney store model a bit? ..

Well I'm definitely waiting for this one.. The delay Is a good for me... More time to save up

well hopefully he got paid ... because pressure is on...

My wii u is a little faster as far as load times go and runner 2 is not freezing up my wii u anymore... Kool

man i can't wait for wonderful 101... i might be the minority here but that is the game i've been waiting for

awesome game and review! hopefully the freeze bug will be fixed

@aaronsullivan
My sentiments exactly... What really happen between the two?
I was really hoping for some eshop releases of bioware's IPs but doubt that's gonna happen now

EA is just trying to see what they can get away with in terms of revenue capture... They are definitely flirting with crossing the line .... But they are always doing this ... Lets see how far the consumers will allow them to go...
Obviously Nintendo wants no part of this...

@xBASSxMONSTAx
Do you guys have the demo at least to tie you over?

The game is awesome.. I recommend it for only $15US

I'm constantly having the freezing issue ... Love the game reminds me of pitfall ... Another player on mii verse spoke of this and it's true... However the freezing issue is getting annoying

@Molotov
You understand that the architecture of the wii u is totally different from the 360 and the ps3.
In addition, the dev kits given to the developers were not the final builds at the time the ports were developed.

In a lot of the countries mentioned especially in the western side have huge import taxes on electronics.... Even in the carribean there Are import taxes so my cousins just import their stuff from the us...
To me the governments them selves are causing the problems with their huge import tax on electronics...
