Gamer of 20 years, Not slowing down

Male, United States

I try to prevent nostalgia from corrupting my view of modern games, because many I have played recently I feel are superior to those games of yesteryear. It is important to see to the future while not being held back by your past experiences.

Dpishere commented on Review: Harvest Moon: A New Beginning (3DS):

Haven't played a Harvest Moon game since Friends of Mineral Town, this looks like a great way to start back up! I always liked the idea of growing crops and bringing them to the market to make money, thus allowing you to get better crops and maybe some animals. Will definitely pick this up in the future!

Hopefully the E-shop can get high quality Nintendo developed IP's like the 3ds has right now. Games like Dillon's Rolling Western and Pushmo show that Nintendo still has a lot of creative potential, and if they can replicate that success for the Wii U then the E-shop will likely take off in the same way the 3DS has.

Dpishere commented on Silicon Studio Near "Maximum Performance" With...:

I am by no means a graphic junkie, but the Wii U to me at least looks more than good enough visually. There is a reason I have always prefered Nintendo's systems and that is because even though the disparity in graphics between the 360 and Wii was fairly large, I simply never cared, as I felt the Wii's games were simply better. For all the bashing the Wii recieved about its technical capabilities, I still think most of the other system's games paled in comparison, artistically or otherwise. While I enjoy my 360 every now and then, the Wii is the system I always come back to when I simply just want to have fun, and the Wii U looks like it will do the same for me, though I do plan on getting a PS4 at some point too.

Dpishere commented on Ubisoft Confident Its Titles Will Attract Game...:

Ubisoft has some of my favorite titles and seeing them be so supportive of the Wii U makes me glad to purchase their games. Hopefully EA will have a reason to change their tune if the sales pick up this holiday season.

Dpishere commented on Nintendo Confirms Smash Bros., 3D Mario and Ma...:

Looking forward to hearing the details of these games, hopefully each will be a reinvention of the respective franchise. As much as I enjoyed Galaxy 1 and 2 I am hoping for an all new way to play 3d Mario, or at least a game similar to Mario 64. As for Smash, I don't care if it ends up being like Melee or Brawl, as I loved them both. I do hope Mario Kart Wii U does what 7 did for the handheld Mario Karts, introducing a new way to play Mario Kart, and perhaps some new battle modes, characters, etc.

Dpishere commented on WWE 2K14 Set To Skip Wii U:

@Caryslan Yeah, what worries me is if the third parties all choose to develop for just the PS4 and 720, and not for the Wii U, then Nintendo gamers will be missing out on a lot of quality games. I plan on getting a Wii U and PS4 at some point so I will be able to play all the games I want, others might not be so lucky though.

Dpishere commented on Sega Files Trademark For Sonic Lost World:

Hopefully we can return to the 3d exploration gameplay of the Sonic Adventure series, with a bit more polish and a more complex story. Just with NO human-animal relationships of the 06 game!

Dpishere commented on EA Currently Has No Games In Development For T...:

It is a shame seeing so many big name developers decide not to publish games for the Wii U, I just hope plenty of other third parties will jump on board with the Wii U so we can have Nintendo's top notch first party games, and more than enough third party games to keep us satisfied as well. So far I don't have a problem with the number of games coming to Wii U, and I hope it stays that way, or improves.

Dpishere commented on Feature: 3DS - A Report Card Ahead of Its Bigg...:

I know given the degree of quality of software from consoles in the past, many people may not agree with this, but I personally feel that the 3ds is my favorite gaming system ever released! It has some of the best games in their respective series and so many third parties have jumped on board with the 3ds. This is only in 2 years, just think what it will be like in another 2!

Dpishere commented on WWE 2K14 Set To Skip Wii U:

It is a shame that 2k doesn't seem to want to support Nintendo's systems as though I do own a 360, I would much rather play Bioshock Infinite on a Wii U. I wish all developers would jump on board with the Wii U, that way I can have Nintendo's superb first-party games with the third-party games I also want to play! Though thanks to publishers this seems very unlikely to happen unfortunately.

Ah Banjo-Kazooie, I have always loved the series (even Nuts & Bolts) and even though I haven't played the originals in years, I still find myself humming the music to Click Clock Woods. Truly some of the best music on the Nintendo 64!

Dpishere commented on Pac-Man And The Ghostly Adventures Chomping It...:

@WiiURockz Yeah I have learned that lesson a long time ago. My most recent example is Dillon's Rolling Western : The Last Ranger, the game may have been given a review score of a 6, but after seeing so many videos of it and having liked the way the game looked from both the first and second game I decided to give it a try. I ended up loving the game and it is one of my favorite games on the 3ds. All in all I don't take review scores themselves very seriously since only I will know how much I will enjoy a game, though for me I usually can only count on Nintendo games being high enough quality to where I don't need a review. Other companies, I tend to look for a little outside insight into how good a game is, though I don't rely on it. I mostly look at reviews for details on how much content a game has, how hard it is, etc, that way I can know if it is worth paying full price for a game.

Dpishere commented on Festival of Magic (Wii U eShop) GDC 2013 Trailer:

Digging the nice art style! Though I have not played too many turn based rpgs lately this would be a great game to start back up in them! After hearing the music from the trailer I can say I am very impressed with the quality of the audio in the game. Sounds just like the kind RPG I used to play as a kid but is also distinctly unique to this game. Needless to say I will most likely end up picking the game up!

Dpishere commented on ZombiU Developer Hints at a Sequel, Sort Of:

Improving upon the predecessor and polishing it up to make at a top quality title could make ZombiU a regular series for the Wii U. The first one had some shortcomings, but if they manage to iron those out they could have a great game for Wii U owners.

Dpishere commented on New Adventure Time Game Coming to Wii U and 3D...:

I wanted to purchase the first game, but after review stated that it was a bit on the short side I opted not to. Though I may still end up getting now that it has dropped in price considerably since then. Here's hoping this game has a bit more content to justify a day one purchase!

Dpishere commented on Hands On: Running Scared in Resident Evil Reve...:

I would very much like to play this game and though I do own a 3ds I would much rather own it for Wii U since my 3ds' online doesn't work properly with my router. With the Wii U I would directly plug it into the cable so there would be no problem with my internet in that case.

@Dpullam Yea that exact thing happened to me too! That is why I will not be purchasing any future Fable games, as I don't feel like gambling money on a game that could be bug ridden like that one. The actual game was quite good, if a bit easy, but having bugs that truly hamper my enjoyment of the game make it one lesson I will not forget.

Dpishere commented on GungHo Online Entertainment's Market Cap Surpa...:

As others have stated mobile games are definitely here to stay, though their quality can come nowhere near that of a focused handheld gaming device, as the E-shop proves that even at a lower price than retail the games themselves are superior than games for mobile phones and tablets.

Dpishere commented on Eternal Darkness Will "Definitely" Be Discusse...:

Though I have never played Eternal Darkness I certainly would at least like to have the option to. I suppose I could just purchase the Gamecube version and just play it on my Wii even if it doesn't come to the VC, though I am not too big on horror games.

Dpishere commented on A.N.N.E Reaches Kickstarter Target, Ten Days L...:

@Einherjar I have been thinking the same thing myself actually! I don't remember Indies NEEDING funding to make their games in the past... If they really want to make a game they could do it out of their own pocket. To me it sometimes seems like they ask for money so even if things go sour in the sales department, they do not end up losing much money from their own pocket.

Have yet to play the 3ds version, though I am planning on picking it up sometime in the future. Also, am I the only who would rather have 3d instead of HD? I just prefer the way games look in 3d, and after using the feature for so long, I really don't want to go back to 2d.

Dpishere commented on Rumour: Rockstar Won't Be Bringing WWE Or Gran...:

While not having the support of a big company like Rockstar is unfortunate, it is also old news. This doesn't bother me too much though, since I haven't been too impressed with any of their games for a long time. Though if I ever did consider purchasing GTA V, it would have to be on Wii U, but given Rockstar's history of hardly ever releasing games for Nintendo's systems, it seems highly unlikely that they would start now. All in all, not too big of a loss for me anyway.

I have no problem with DLC, as long as the retail release has more than enough content to justify the price. Luckily, as a Nintendo gamer I have never had to worry about getting enough value for my dollar, since Nintendo has always delivered for me.
