Looks okay. I'm not really adverse to playing a Zelda clone, and if it doesn't come to Wii U, then that means the other consoles get a Zelda-like game to fill whatever Zelda void they're missing. Positive outlook y'know?
Honestly, I had my fun with 9 even though it was more luck based than say, 7 (the only other Mario Party I own ^_^*).
That being said, I've never been too big on the Mario Party sub series as a whole and while looks it like 10 is good for what it is, I'm not really all that interested in picking it up.
@lividd3ad I see what you did there. But yeah, what you said is totally right. The fact that they're holding back shovelware definitely is something to be worried about, as they're afraid it won't sell it all.
I was kinda hoping they would of just made Rockman XOver, except better in every way possible.
Why? Because at it's core it's not a bad formula if done right.
Think about it: actual platforming, more enemy variety, more move variety for the boss sequences, have bosses reward points for each defeat as you go, have the difficulty ramp up at each boss, and reward the player new moves with the score they earn as well as upgrade MegaMan to survive longer.
As a matter of fact, why not just capitalize on the Endless stage mode from MegaMan 9& 10? Or make Battle Network Virus Busting endless wave game? So many ideas, much money!
@rjejr The original Teen Titans cartoon is way better than Go... I mostly hold a grudge against Go because it's not a continuation of that, but has the same characters and actors that played them before. I understand that Go is entirely different show and an entirely different genre but it still ticks me off they did that.
I dunno about the DLC... The Personas may or may not be worth the price based on the stats and skills they provide and the navigators are nice, I suppose, but this stuff should be sold in packs rather than individually, by themselves they don't seem worth the price.
Either SEGA rushed this game out the door, or Red Button hadn't heard of this thing called beta testing. Either way, this game could of used half a year extra development time. There is literally no reason this game to run the way it does when it's only being coded on one platform... unless this game was intended to be a multiplat originally, then SEGA decided they wanted out of their contract with Nintendo and made the last minute decision to make it a Wii U only game.
@burninmylight Probably cuz it kills battery life. Though if that's the case they should have just with the chargeable batteries. But then again, how much would it if they did that?
@TrueWiiMaster Part of accepting different ideals and religions, is allowing them to be seen/discussed in the first place. Censorship will not fix anything.
@Mahe Quit worrying about it, I'm pretty sure Aonuma knows what works and doesn't work for Zelda at this point. If he wants to experiment, let him. Zelda as a franchise needs to evolve to stay relevant, and sometimes the most unexpected idea could be the greatest. Truth is, the fans don't always know what's best for the franchise and if they had control of it they'd probably kill it. Besides, all he did was express interest in the idea, doesn't mean he's actually gonna do it. Calm down.
@Spoony_Tech If I had used another Rare IP, the analogy would of been lost. >_> Besides can anyone name a IP Rare made after their acquisition, besides Grabbed by the Ghoulies? Whatever IPs Rare had is now Microsoft's, and the likelihood any of their original N64 games being released on VC is super low.
@whodatninja @Spoony_Tech Doesn't Microsoft own those IPs now though? The likes of that happening is the same as Halo on WiiU. I.e Never.
Also, wasn't the Donkey Kong Country trilogy taken off the Virtual Console because they contain references to other Rare games? The same goes for Donkey Kong 64, that game had a remake of Jetpack in it.
You could just make smaller games that fans will buy to make a quick profit, and stop investing so much money in crap mobile games.... Nah, that be smart.
I got in contact with the developers. Apparently they had no budget what so ever. Well, their cause was noble at least... Though if they want to see how the community would respond to a Visual Novel, they should of made a better one .
Does Ubisoft realize they are ticking more people off with PR rather than with straight forward honesty? Yeah, telling Wii U owners there's no market for AC on Wii U would hurt, but their transparent half-truths are hurting consumer trust more. Maybe if they made a dedicated Wii U game that the fans would like , they could get back in people's good graces again.... Watch them not do that.
I'll just repost what I said about this earlier: "Honestly, Ocarina of Time does not convert to 2d very well. The game is built around being 3d, to make it 2d would involve having to heavily reimagine every aspect of the game."
if only this game is for new 3ds in that old 3ds we wouldn't be having this problem, now would we? In all seriousness, does everyone now understand why the new 3ds is relevant?
@kingston589 I think the leak being real is more disappointing then shocking. It's killed some of my hype really. I just hope there's more unique and new characters to be unlocked, and not just more clones (don't care about the justification, they're still disappointing).
This means.... God dang it, I lose. I still think the roster pic is fake until the JP release. Sigh... +1 TeamReal. Kind of glad I was proven wrong though, more unique fighters are good.
People should really wait until after the gen of that console is finished to hack them,
It makes their job a lot easier and less likely for their console to be bricked.
@SneakyStyle I think you're confused. MH3 is no where near a good representation of what the Wii U can do, mostly due to the fact it's an early title that wasn't properly optimized for the hardware. I think games like DK Tropical Freeze, Bayonetta 2, SM3DW, and Mario Kart 8 are better examples that demonstrate the hardware capabilities better. Heck, Zelda U is good example as the that entire trailer was in-game and was drop dead gorgeous.
Nintendo does not "need" your games if you're going to hold 20 year old grudges. What the Wii U needs is less butt hurt publishers with actual good games.
