@Captain_Gonru unless you're really obsessive about graphics, basically framerate and slightly sharper visuals is what he meant by "better" . A big plus though is that there's no tax, so the price you see is what you pay. Apart from that, there's really nothing that makes these games "better" on the ps4
I don't see how this is surprising to anyone. When you're gonna fund something, read up on it and really know what you're getting into. WiiU isn't that strong and the engine they planned on using wasn't the best for WiiU. What's sad and kinda subversive is how I mainly see everyone here fanboying about the NX and are most likely gonna get one, the project could and most likely will be released on NX, you're still getting it then so why throw a fit? Nintendo themselves have given up on the WiiU and you guys really expect a company not that big to try and push for success on a console that is dead?
These are starting to become CoD, Mario, Assassin's Creed, in terms of releases with barely any innovation, and repetitive gameplay. I love monster hunter, but even they are starting to get stale with each of them having only a minor few tweaks from the previous ones.
I'm starting to think the discount aren't being put here or in other convinient options because they don't want to take the criticism of people complaining
This should've been a thing since even wii. Why they chose to skip GBA on 3ds and NGC on WiiU is something I'll never understand. Nintendo needs to learn to step up their digital game before they fall even further behind.
What a surprise that this list is made up of 1st party games on this website. As stated in the article, deus ex as well as a few others are far better and more essential than half of what's on this list. A big reason I believe why wiiu flopped was that certain people rejected 3rd party support as well in beliefs that mario or other nintendo games were far superior. Some of the games on here really offer nothing new or different or even innovative with their own gamepad which was the main gimmick of wiiu.
Wait, so let me get this straight. You have to spend money on a ton of games to get coins, not all of them worth the same, just to be able to spend those coins on some crappy discounts?
@Caryslan I don't have an XBO/360 but I do have a PS3/4 and honestly the sales on that are kinda lackluster apart from RE games. As for WiiU failure, aside from hardware, it's lack of 3rd party support. It's not so much that devs don't want to make games for the system, it's that nintendon't doesn't support those that want to support them. If this continues, Switch won't really make much of a difference. They're also really stingy with their 1st party games, some games have been out since 3ds launch and still are at full price. That's just ridiculous. I used to be a huge nintendo fanboy tbh, but I'm just getting sick of them at this point
Well, I mean, that emulator itself is doing much better job for Nintendo's classic NES library given how nintendo themselves seem to not care and their selection is really pathetic on their consoles themselves
It's kinda sad that Nordic didn't give up on Wii U given how down under they kinda went, unlike Nintendo themselves who completely gave up on it. I'll buy a PS4 and Wii U version for support, but it's kinda weird to know the Wii U version may be virtually the same as the PS3 version.
If it's $20 for all consoles, then I'll gladly triple dip on this game (I own the original) on ps4 and wiiu to support them. However, if things change down the line, my main priority will be on ps4 to experience the game Remastered with richer visuals
Demos and so called "early access" should give a taste of what the game will be like. This was beyond horrible, and if it's any indication of what the main game will be, I am losing hope
Having played the original on PS3, the point of this remaster would be to play it Remastered with better visuals and overall gameplay. Owning both a wiiu and ps4, I'm gonna get it on ps4 as getting it on wiiu would be equivalent to getting a ported version at original quality
This is just downright unfair and to a certain degree bullying of the little guy. You don't see GPS game developers suing each other over gameplay similarities and such. I'm sorry that they're going through this.
These sales are incredibly pathetic and disappointing. Some of these games have been out since release of 3ds and should have major discounts but noo, Nintendo thinks they're worth more than that. Some first party games should be no more than 10. This is why I switched over to Sony and Steam, they have better games and great sales.
It wouldn't be such an issue if the content that is provided via Amiibo figures wasn't already in the game. Having to pay extra $12-16(regular price of Amiibo where I live) just to unlock something that is already in the game with no other means to unlock otherwise is nothing but a ridiculous cash grab. I can see the price range being suitable as a figurine that serves as nothing more than a collectible with some in game unlockables that would take some time to grind for (Hyrule Warriors). But using them as keys to unlock something that is already in the game which we purchase is stupid. Some defend this move as it is an actual physical figure, but truth is, this is no better than what Capcom and other companies have done.
Its too late given how now current Gen consoles support multiple maps (larger world) and I'm assuming wiiu will stay with a single map. No inventory management on the tablet is stupid. I think all the clones killed the hype as people had to use those to play if they had no other alternative and by now its all done.
These sales are so pathetic Some of these games are already years old and their retail prices have not gone down at all and this sale isn't even tempting at all. Its great that there are even sales, but come on Nintendo, this is just really sad.
I really dont like reading reviews or seeing "top _" lists on this website simply because its all biased towards Nintendo. If I had to make my top wiiu list, it would be 1. Bayonetta 1&2 2. Hyrule Warriors 3. Wind Waker HD 4. MH3U 5. Smash
If its DLC that's already in the game, its stupid to have to ask for money for selling an incomplete game. Even if its going to be free, and its in the game already, its unfair to have to wait to play something you pay for
Why does everything on this website always have to lead to a competition with Nintendo? Its really unnecessary and annoying. "Non Nintendo game is high up on charts, Nintendo game follows a few games behind"
This hardly looks like anything and the sword didn't resemble the Master Sword at all. This is getting ridiculous. I hate to be playing devil's advocate, but it seems like this is just some ploy to get N fanboys worked up against Sony's latest hit game.
@Warruz I dont think it will ever even happen, Nintendo likes being ridiculous and never putting up their first party, retail titles on sale on any occasion. And knowing that really old first party DS games haven't received a retail price drop, I dont think first party retail titles (physical or digital) will go on sale anytime soon.
Animal Crossing New Leaf here and there, and after months and months, I'm finally gonna resume Ni No Kuni and work on finishing the game while trying to get 100% and all trophies, and finally start my birthday present which was the limited edition of Shin Megami Tensei IV
I wouldn't really mind, it just seems incredibly lazy, and I actually found LBW to be such a disappointment. I get that they were going for nostalgic feeling, but there's really no point when the original is so easily and readily available for virtually anyone
