considering that Namco had some of there charecters in Mario Kart gp in the arcades, maybe that's the way to go for sega and nintendo with this kind of cross over.

street fighter ex and alpha remakes with online please

It's a shame that they've gone downhill in quality over the past few years. I miss their BIG sports series, and I would have loved to have seen an entry for NHL as part of the street games.
I'm glad that NFS most wanted U got released, as it looks like that'll be the last time I'll be buying anything that EA puts out.

I'll be there at some point over the weekend, can't wait to try space harrier 3D.

insoniac bashing nintendo, nothing to loose sleep over.

Well, we'll see how much things improve in the summer update before I believe that.

I'm not to keen on the idea of decals, I would prefer if Nintendo actually made the controller in those colours.

when did they last make any good games though?

They should atleast sort out the friend match lobbys, it's ridiculous to think that we can't enjoy something that should have been on the disk since day one.
The other thing, it's a bit of concearn that every 3RD party offering DLC is skipping the WiiU versions of thier games.
It's not as if they don't know we want a fair deal, it just seems as if they just don't care.
TBH, what's the point in bringing the games over in the first place.

I know they have to put the extra work in to emulate their boards, but capcom needs to put out the arcade versions of street fighter alpha 1, 2, 3. street fighter 3. and 1945.

I'm not suprised that Nintendo aren't releasing Wii games through the eShop, it's just a shame that capcom let the Tatsunoko rights slip though.
Thing is, I would have loved to have seen a sequal too, but after all of the licensing issues with the first one, it's probably not worth Capcom spending the money.

dunk hunt, never played that

I agree with yosher, if it had been a proper shell for the 3DS then I would have been interested.
Also, I was kind of reminded of the ghost in the shell logo with the maga man 25th logo design. Anyone else think so?

I don't care too much for the 3D on my 3DS, but it's nice to see people get positive use from it.

The N64 is my favourite console form from Nintendo. It's just a shame they went back to the same old box design.

@WhoBeThat I'm just airing the truth, tekken prime sucks. It's the worst tekken by far.

well, there's a suprise, just like the wii vc all over again.

i didn't really care for the original all that much, but the art work is really good.
For anyone interested, Udon publishing made an okami artworks book that should still be available online.

This was the first of the updates the came out later than advertised. Now where's the one for the WiiU?

I'm really struggling to see the potential in the WiiU VC. As far as I can see it, there isn't going to be much expansion on what is already on the Wii VC.
Nintendo really needs to get as much 3rd party support as possible, I don't think that there is much left with what games Nintendo can dish, out other than their snes fx chip games.

It's a far better option to get a kickstarter going than going to a bank and asking for a loan.
Atleast indies have a better chance of getting the funds that they need with a kickstarter, and they don't have to pay back a loan with tons of interest.
Besides, the more choice of games that come to the WiiU is always welcome, regardless of how it's funded.

Wow, less than 2 full days to advertise this event. I smell a fail.

Rather having the kids moaning 'are we there yet?', now well get them arguing over who's turn it is on the WiiU instead.

Stories are ok if it's not the main part of the game. I think that the method of a bit at the start and then again at end of the game is more than enough.
Tbh, I hate going through cut screenes in between each fight, as it slows down the flow of the game too much.

my local asda hasn't even started to stock in the wiiu yet. and the rest of the retailers on the high street aren't exactly players choice for nintendo gaming.

@chrysanthemum, I know how you feel, I posted about the panel this morning in the new puzzzles thread.

and yet my high street HMV still sucks at stocking nintendo games.

sega definitely need to go back to making arcade games, that's were their best work shines.

i like keeping my systems up to date. now where's the swapnote update that was due yesterday?

makes me laugh when people love disney for letting capcom remake ducktales, yet hate them for closing lucas arts.
business is business, and lucas arts has obviously not been making money for a while for disney to close them down. had lucas arts been turning profits, then disney would have kept them open, simple as that really.

not a huge loss, atleast they weren't slating the 3DS like so many others who can't port a game

last time it made me laugh when letterbox was reported to be getting a major update, and all we got was different coloured ink. atleast this update is a bit better.
anyway, i'm looking into shock troopers 2 as well. i liked the first one, so i have high hopes for this too.

nintendo should only allow people to post if they have a NNID and password.

streetpassing has been one of the few reasons to get me up and out a bit more often.

there's nothing wrong in voicing an opinion, but when your career depends what you say in public forums, ther's a certain amount of tact and common sense that is definitely needed. obviously people like phil fish obviously have very little of both.

wow, nice week for downloads.
i may pick up both resi evil games over the next couple of weeks.

if they remake aladdin it has to be the snes version. the megadrive / genisis version wasn't that great imo.

if i won, i'd definitly save some credit for the wiiu vc when it's in full swing. also looking forward to 90's arcade racer when that hits the eshop.

if the publishers don't want to deal with nintendo, the devs should just go direct to nintendo themselves with their games, and ask nintendo to publish for them instead.

I may get this as long as the reviews are favorable.
also, does this have an online mode? i would love to take on a few friends with this.
besides, I haven't played a decent racing game since mario kart wii, and NFS underground before that.

cool, looks like i'll be a gaming grandpa in my old age.

Any bets that it'll end up on OUYA and SteamBox.

this sort of news makes me laugh, especially when some other muppet was roperted to be saying online games were damaging the industry.

I doesn't help when the majority of retailers don't even stock half of the available games.
If they gave more space for a better selection of games, then they would sell more, It's that simple.

I just want them to give us their NES games on the VC, especially micro machines.

This is a must buy, just as long as the reviews arre favorable.

What? 2 and a half months in and there isn't enough kids playing on a WiiU. So how many 6 to 11 year olds have over 300 bucks for a WiiU then?

Unfortunately I can see that there's going to be a trend to release bug riddled games, simply because it's easier to patch it at a latter date.

Games have become either far too serious or far too gimmiky over the past few years, they need to go back to being fun again.
Last gen was ok, the last time I actually enjoyeg a game properly was the gamecube and GBA era.
