Predictably big fan of Metroid :)
Male, United States
Hey guys, my favorite games are from the Metroid series, especially Other M and Prime 1. I appreciate Metroid for its fun and creative gameplay, not to mention the series's great story line. I also like Zelda, Sonic, Mario, etc.

Nintendo cares about the consumers, they're more willing to give gamers entertainment rather then earn money. That is great.

Varia01 commented on First Impressions: Bayonetta 2:
This game has incredible artwork ideas! Bayonetta's suit and the creatures she fights all look nifty and well-detailed.

Oh wow, this looks really neat! I'm surprised that there has been none to few sequels/prequels.

Mofitt speaks the truth. The Wii U now has HD, more gigabytes, and the gamepad, so the price is quite reasonable. I don't think the Wii had a price change so early, so it makes since for no change.

@Lasermaster123 Well agreed. I have faith that Nintendo won't disappoint.

This is just as good as the Super Metroid thing! LOL!

@Lasermaster123 Very true, I wasn't thinking clearly. What do I have too worry about business, when I can just enjoy Nintendo anyway.

Forget about post #39, that was kinda stupid... :I Well the delay thing is something I'm staying with, but that second part, I was being crazy on.

Not for his opinion toward the Wii U, I only agree with what is needed to be done for the Wii U's success.

Varia01 commented on Talking Point: E3 Exposed the Strains of Ninte...:
Delays for games are absolutely fine, especially if a gaming company has more ideas for a game in the development.
Now when it comes to third-party games avoiding the Wii U since it's not doing so good, is just not good in my opinion. The Wii U is not a year old yet, they can't expect the sales to skyrocket at the start of a console. It appears that these companies want Nintendo to lose, it is like those companies have no care for consumers, they just want to win. The only way consumers are gonna be happy, is if the third-party companies do not support Nintendo and the Wii U is dead. They are losing patience for mere video games! I do not understand why they are expecting Nintendo's new console to jump high instantly! While Nintendo is developing its most highly anticipated games the third-party companies should give Nintendo momentum while Nintendo builds these games. Those other companies don't care if Nintendo loses and dissatifies the consumers, once again, those companies just want to win. If Nintendo stresses too much money, then they could lose their company. This must change, those third-party companies need to be patient and compassionate so that they can all rejoice, including the consumers.

Varia01 commented on Call of Duty: Ghosts:
I am surprised this is coming to the Wii U; the COD games on the Wii weren't so good, but the recent one for the Wii U seemed to do ok. I WILL NOT be allowed to play this, though those graphics were just AWESOME!
#13
Varia01 commented on First Impressions: Bayonetta 2:
Partially surprised to see that Nintendo published this, due to the nature of the game.
#14
Varia01 commented on First Impressions: Bayonetta 2:
I would play this if I could, because it looks FUN, but Bayonetta will never replace Samus.
#15
Varia01 commented on Monolith Soft's X (Tentative Title):
This game looks awesome. The gameplay, graphics, artwork, music, and possibly the story all seem very great. It is one of the few RPGs I have ever been interested in. HYPE!!!

Varia01 commented on Super Smash Bros. Will Have A Single Player Ca...:
No story mode may be sorta disappointing, but the movie thing is just great. Especially after seeing Brawl's incredible graphics upgraded into HD. I will probably do single player most of the time, though I really need to learn how to not get enraged or stressed during multiplayer. HYPE!!!

Varia01 commented on EA Will "Jump Back In" If Wii U Becomes A "Via...:
EA seems to think it is the king of gaming. Well in my opinion, it is NOT! Sure they may have clever gameplay techniques, but Nintendo has always cared about the consumers, even children, which I have immeasurable application for. Nintendo builds entertainment that they want people to enjoy, not to compete. EA is just creating powerful titles to gain speed and fame. They probably see that Nintendo's fire is vanishing and they don't care. They aren't gonna help Nintendo and make the company who cares about consumers fall apart. That is just wrong. People will be disappointed if Nintendo is done, including me, and EA is not going to help Nintendo get back up on its feet. EA just wants to be known for its big titles and technology. Once Nintendo's titles announced at E3 show up, EA will see that Nintendo has power. Mario Kart 8, Super Smash Bros. U, and possibly Super Mario 3D World will prove to EA that Nintendo has what it takes. Nintendo has Ocarina of Time, Metroid Prime, and Super Mario Galaxy 2, some of the games with the greatest reviews in gaming history. EA will be proven wrong and "evil".

@cbkummer I agree. Don't make bigger products to win a contest, do it so that other people enjoy it.

Varia01 commented on Time: Nintendo Is "Stumped" By The Wii U GameP...:
@Dev Miiverse? Dang, I really like Miiverse.... I love drawing making jokes about certain points of games. If the gamepad truly does "go away", then Miiverse is doomed. This guy hasn't played games that make use of the gamepad is a likely possibility. The Wii U is only a few months old, and yet, people judge it already! Time and patience is VERY essential now.
#20
Varia01 commented on Time: Nintendo Is "Stumped" By The Wii U GameP...:
What? No! I really like the gamepad and its unique capabilities. Give Nintendo some Time and patience; it'll eventually find better things to do with it. Heck, even third-party games could empower the use of the gamepad. If Retro would've created a Metroid, Star Fox, or F-Zero, it would motivate the gamepad's success. I bet Nintendo will find unexpected ways of his using the gamepad.
#21
Varia01 commented on Retro Studios Working on "One Major Project at...:
Those Metroid ideas sound pretty AWESOME. Not just Samus (Though she's my favorite), but more hunters! I like that. Another two or three years? I could be patient that long, I think... Donkey Kong probably was a better choice for now though I was still hoping for Metroid. Let's just wait and see what Retro has next time...
#22
Varia01 commented on Bayonetta 2:
I doubt I'll be allowed to play this, but it looks cool. I didn't expect all those flying monsters that Bayonetta has to fight. The gameplay looks fun, the graphics are good, the artwork and design is awesome, and the story is probably good too. Once again, I may not be allowed to play this. I hope you guys enjoy this though.

I almost wonder if the pro controller can be used for this game after reading about it. The gameplay and graphics looks amazing. HYPE!!!

Varia01 commented on Nintendo's Scott Moffitt - Upcoming Wii U Line...:
Many games shown are surely to give the Wii U the boost it needs. If third-party developers just ignore the DLC for the Wii U, it could backfire by that happening. I don't have much hope for Super Mario 3D World though. Mario Kart 8, Super Smash Bros. and X are possibly major sources to the Wii U's victory. Heck, even Sonic Lost World could get the Wii U back on its feet and running as fast as the hedgehog himself.

@LuigiMan200 Oh wait, that's right, I remember! Thanks, man.

@miletich3 I wouldn't like that.
That is partially disappointing, but I guess it is fine. If all of the characters shown on the screenshots and videos shown are on the game, that is fine with me. If Nintendo starts to add first-party characters, then I got three ideas. Mii, Waluigi, and Athony Higgs (Other M).
HYPE!!!
#29
Varia01 commented on First Impressions: Mario Kart 8:
That is good to hear. I do know what the "heart" is the game's enjoyment. Maybe an idea of Miyamoto's not earn a few bucks, but rather to give enjoyment to the players. He did so with his excellent video gaming mind. It will be really neat to see how the game looks in HD.
Off my kindle fire hd, the screen is 720p, but the Wii U can get up to a maximum of 1080p which would look pretty amazing for this game. The gameplay sounds great too. No blue shell? Maybe something new...
The character roster was small and partially strange for the 7, so I wonder how this will turn out character wise. Maybe: Dry Bowser, Goomba, Waluigi (He may not be in smash, but he could possibly come here), I'm trying to think about characters who have already been in previous games, other than Waluigi.
Anyway. HYPE!!!

I wonder how this game may fit into the story?

Ooooohhh.... neat! DLC is a great idea for this game, much has not yet been announced for it, but if this game is gonna be another BIG Zelda game with DLC added, that will be amazing! HYPE!!!

Varia01 commented on Sakurai: New Super Smash Bros. To Strike A Bal...:
The only Smash Bros. I have played is Brawl. It was like really fun, though I do need to learn how to control myself when other players attack me, don't stop, and does not let me attack. That's annoying, but other than that, the game is amazing on gameplay, graphics, and Music (Yeah!). I am very excited about SSB U. Hype!
#34
Varia01 commented on First Impressions: Super Mario 3D World:
The way you put it, it seems like this game may fail. You are right, I have forgotten how weird Mario really is, ROFL. A fat plumber who can jump surprisingly high and throw balls made outta nothing but fire, HA!
This game does seem to be Not-wierd, makes since, and little cooperation among the players. I am starting to get my disappointment, back...

Puny surprise for me... I guess Metroid can wait. How about F-Zero or Star Fox; have those been completely forgotten?

This is one of the games I'm most excited for. Once again, the integration of Sonic and Mario looks really cool for this game along with HD visuals. Hype!

You know what, Sonic Lost World, Mario Kart 8, and Super Smash Bros. U are tied in 1st for me. Shoulda voted "I can't pick one."; all three games look very awesome. Hype!
#38
Varia01 commented on Poll: Which Wii U E3 Game Has Impressed You th...:
I couldn't decide between, Mario Kart 8, Super Smash Bros U., or Sonic Lost World. I chose Sonic, which is one of the third-party games even though it has only one 1%. The game looks super fun and great in HD. It really looks like a neat integration of Mario and Sonic gameplay. Smash Bros and Mario Kart are very close to the excitement I have for Sonic. All three games are what I am excited for. Hype!
#39
Varia01 commented on Super Mario 3D World:
I'm a little disappointed that this didn't show up as a game similar to Galaxy, but now that I read more about this game, I'm now quite excited for it. It looks just as fun as Mario 3D Land (That is a lot of fun) and looks neat in HD. I guess the story for the game is this: Bowser is so mad of how Mario has beaten him several times an plots vengeance. He's so mad, that he's starts tearing apart the world. Peach gets word on this and realizes it is time she stands up for the Mushroom Kingdom. She helps Mario, Luigi, and Toad stop Bowser and his minions from destroying the world just to get to Mario. Just a guess. HYPE!

Varia01 commented on Miyamoto: Zelda Wii U Was Considered For Displ...:
I completely forgot about this. This just adds to the disappointment of yesterday's Nintendo Direct. I'm glad to see the creation of the game is doing good. The HD for the game looks fantastic. Another cart has been added to the hype train; I can't decide when one to sit in! Sonic Lost World, Mario Kart 8, Super Smash Bros. U, or this? So much HYPE!
#41
Varia01 commented on Nintendo "Feels Good" About How It Stacks Up A...:
Nintendo may have had the hype fall, but it is just a matter of patience and time before it steps up its game. I wouldn't judge the Wii U at its young age, it needs time to really progress.
If Nintendo wins this next-generation competition, I bet they'll be happy if they win this competition, because they are awesome, but they never seem to match up to the awesome of Microsoft and Sony. I'm with Nintendo and I don't care if they lose this competition (Unless it puts an end to the company), they are a still fun and winning in my opinion.

Miyamoto's ideas may not be bad. If there is a new Nintendo IP, then I will look forward to it.

DLC would be neat, but I doubt it'll come to the Wii U. My bro really likes Deathstroke; Deathstroke is one of his favorite DC characters. It doesn't matter to me if the Wii U doesn't have DLC, I'll just enjoy the other stuff, especially given the success of the predecessors.

Varia01 commented on Nintendo Reveal Why Its 3D Mario Title Isn't S...:
Makes since now. This game is now starting to be perfectly fine with me. The story? Perhaps Bowser seeks vengeance on Mario and is too mad to capture Peach. Bowser goes on a rampage along with his minions. Peach decides she needs to stand up and protect her kingdom. She starts to help Mario, Luigi, and Toad. I'm now quite excited for this.

I was really hoping for a Mario game similar to Galaxy, but this looks neat cool. 3D Land on the 3DS was fun, so I this is predictably fun too. One question: Why is Mario's cat suit gold and not red?
