@The_MARVEL_Mod If they're bothering on releasing a game on all platforms, all platforms should be equally focused. A good entertainer always gives a 5-star show whether it's for a crowd of 10 or 10,000. That applies to a game dev as well.
I was prepared to buy day one on PS3 when the game was first revealed. Then it got confirmed for Wii U and I signed up for day one buy on that; but now the hype has died and there's a lot I'm playing on my Wii U. Now, with this whole delay thing, I will have even more time to make sure the game is actually good before buying it.
If the Wii U version isn't a crippled version of the game and has good gamepad support (like it SHOULD be) I'll buy it. If not, I'm dropping ubisoft off my radar entirely.
Wait, people like Mewtwo now? I thought nobody liked him. It's nice to see Lucario back. I wasn't sure about him when he was announced for Brawl but it was fun to play as, since he had Mewtwo's moveset but with the whole aura thing added; and, more importantly, without the constant struggle to float back to the platform. Mewtwo was way too floaty, and so easy to knock away. Unless they work Mewtwo into a completely different character, I don't see him coming back. And I'm not sure I'd even want him back.
Oh, man, this game. By mere chance I ended up downloading the demo for it on the Japanese PS Store and had so much fun with it I had to import it. Like someone said before, it's a pretty import-friendly game. Story missions are easy to figure out, so is the leveling up system for weapons; the only thing you'd miss out are the story details. Although, the final cutscene made me wish real bad that I understood what was going on; it was just so crazy awesome. Totally worth the import: really fun to play, and even more fun to watch if you're into anime.
Aw, nuts. Like allav866 said, since they decided to delay the update for another day I thought we were in for a surprise but... eh. I may be tempted by 1080, but I don't think I'll give in. 200 coins for a bit of curiosity isn't worth it, I rather get Grill-Off for 80 coins.
Yeah, SKBurst takes even more space than ALBW. And here I was thinking I would be okay with the 4gb sd card included for a while. Nonetheless, it's a fun game. Hopefully the sequel will make it to the west as well.
Nice! I hope they bring this to the US as well. I got Burst recently and I'm really, really enjoying it. It's a simple (but not easy) brawler with lots to unlock, good customization and just enough combat variety. Fun characters as well, and japanese voice-acting for every menu and situation. Great game well worth the price.
I bought this last week and so far it's been pretty great. I'm liking it so much, I regret not double dipping and getting the Wii U version as well instead of getting Gunman Clive (a great disappointment). I felt the small level format was better for a handheld so I went for this version, but the Wii U version looks pretty gorgeous.
About the framerate, I'm on level 25 and I've had 1 or 2 times where it went down pretty bad, but other than that it's nice and smooth. Also, regarding the 3D, it's pretty good.. not bad but not great. I like it.
Having completed the game a while ago I must say it's good for the price and... that's it. The character is way too floaty (probably a leftover from touchscreen controls), some enemies respawn randomly, and, despite the charming visual style, it does get boring to look at after a while. I guess it's okay to dip back in every couple of months or so, but if my memory space is ever running low, it's the first thing I'm uninstalling.
Those $2 could've definitely gone one something worse (I still regret the $3 I spent on that psn thing, Linger in Shadows) or something much better ($1.50 to re-buy Kirby Super Star on Wii U), but all in all it's okay.
I cave in and got EDGE along with Gunman Clive on my 3DS with what was left of my eshop credit after getting Shantae. So far I'm enjoying both of them. I was a bit torn with EDGE since it looked so, so pretty on Wii U, but the pick-up-and-play nature felt native on the 3DS; but so far it looks pretty great and it's fantastic for sporadic runs. Gunman Clive is practically revered around here, haha, so I went for it and so far it's been pretty good as well, so let's see what happens.
If only I had 21 cents to complete for Kirby Super Star on the Wii U, gotta appreciate the double-dip discount on the virtual console.
@SahashraLA I get what you mean, they're getting ALTTP on Wii U and get Super Mario 3D Land for free when they register a 3DS with Club Nintendo. I really wish I got the chance to take advantage of that promo.

Re: Nintendo Download: 13th February (North America)
The Guild games are also on offer for $2.99 each. I might grab Crimson Shroud or Liberation Maiden.
Re: Watch_Dogs Delayed Again on Wii U, Will Arrive on the System After Other Platforms
@Rand And the Wii U will sell when third parties care. See the problem?

Re: We Didn't Know It, But Sonic Boom Was First Shown in Spring 2013
This game is just based on the new tv show. It's not the "new path" Sonic games will take.
Re: Rumour: 2015 Sonic Title To Hit Wii U Alongside PS4 and Xbox One
Huh. All of Nintendo's relatively solid third party support is from fellow Japanese developers and publishers.
Re: Mobile Pokémon Clone Eco Spirits Hatches A Kickstarter Campaign
The monster designs aren't even nice to look at. They're as bland as they come. I hope this bombs horribly.

Re: Club Nintendo Rewards Updated for January
@MrSRArter I get the feeling that the first months of Wii U games on Club Nintendo will be the $0.30 games from last year.

Re: Senran Kagura 2: Deep Crimson Is Bouncing Towards Japanese 3DS Consoles This August
@FishieFish It does, it lags a bit sometimes even if you don't have the 3D slider on.
