Darn. I was going to double dip. I love this game so much that I bought the soundtrack(wish it were the actual in game music and not an acoustic cover). This game has style and atmosphere! The music was like a dark late 80s, early 90s anime movie soundtrack. Like music from "Vampire Hunter D"
Uhm...there are plenty of games. Here's a few that are awesome:(this is not all of them) The wonderful 101(I have no issues controlling this game) Pikmin 3(brilliant) Deus Ex director's cut(gamepad is awesome) Splinter cell(gamepad is awesome graphics are near pc compared to other versions and no screen tearing! Barely noticed any framerate issues. I'm looking at you DF!) Super Mario 3d land(brilliant) TLOZ windwaker HD(brilliant) Donkey kong tropical freeze(brilliant) Trine 2 director's cut(beautiful and almost on par with pc) Monster Hunter 3 ultimate(awesome) Lego city undercover(awesome) Plus there is more. If you are playing and beating more then 20 games a year you seriously need to go outside and get in shape.
I'm glad nintendo has high standards and refuses to cave-in with the moral decay on the interenet. How immature does one have to be to get upset cause they can no longer draw and send private parts on the internet. Fricking grow up people. I'm a "hardcore" gamer and I'm glad nintendo still believes and stands behind something.
@Laxeybobby I didn't get any of that when I tried your link. I already have a pre-order through GameStop. Activision already commented on the graphics of the wii u version and how they are proud of it.
Honestly, trolling has gotten way out of hand. Not only are people trolling nintendo on forums, but also fake reviews on amazon and now I have seen employees flat out lie about the wii u just to confront them and get the evil glare and then hear them say fanboy under their breath to another employee.
@AugustusOxy what are you talking about? The controls are spot on and more accurate then the analog sticks. I'm all in favor for the analog stick when it comes to fps and other genres but motion control suits this best.
Crytek have always supported the nintendo. They had a game completely done and running for the wii u and EA pulled the plug. That actually made Crytek upset cause from what they stated the game was running great and the cryengine 3 is design for architectures like wii u's. So here's what I'm hoping. I'm hoping that nintendo picks up and publishes timesplitters 4 for the wii u.
I hope the third one focuses strictly on the console itself and not the gamepad and that its a new console with more power and keep the focus on that its new with more power. Drop names like the new Zelda HD, mario kart 8, mario world 3d, donkey kong and super smash bros. 4 will all be in glorious 1080p HD.
@Dogpigfish nintendo is not responsible for other people's actions. Just cause they made it limited doesnt mean they have the right to copy the game and sell as used. They had a contract for the games they purchased. How is this not pirating?
@JaxonH which I agree to, but I guess what Sakurai's was upset about and the reason he cut them was because now the suprise is gone so why take up memory when it could be used for something else.
@tsm7 ps4 is selling at a major loss and they had to cut the camera to lower the cost, because of that some of the controller functions were lost unless you purchase the camera separately. Gddr5 memory is not cheap.
@JaxonH two different stories. The ones for pikmin were posted after the game was finished were as for ssmb 4,the cutscenes were posted before the game was completed.
@Cohort First I was never arguing you, but just trying to clarify what I'm saying. Seems like everyone else got what I said. My original pov was. We complain when it ships on time cause its rushed and we complain when its delayed for a month so that they can give it more features.
Gamepad specific features is a special add on cause its not required for the developers at ALL. Nintendo stated that its not a requirement. So I am glad that the developer for this game is taking their time to give the FULL experience plus some. Please watch the profanity and the personal attacks — TBD
Ps. I never said YOU were complaining. I said,"people"
@Cohort so you're comparing launch ports that were never designed with wii u in minded and were slapped on with added features. Need for speed got all the dlc except for the latest one at no extra cost plus more features. I know this cause I have both. The only thing you didn't get with mass effect 3 was mass effect 1 and 2 due that were out on the other consoles years ago and the new dlc once again to small install base(plus its ea). You're missing the point here that I made to begin with about the complaining. First is that my point has to be with the new games coming out, mainly splinter cell, that people were making a complaint that despite with all its wii u specific features they were mad and even said they would rather wait a little and NOT get the game the same time as everyone else as long as it were complete and now that someone is doing that here we are again complaining because a developer wants to add more to the wii u version. I'm 36 1/2 yrs old have been gaming for 30 yrs. first system ever was the commodore 64 and the pong gaming machine that played just pong. All those years of gaming I learned to never care too much for launch port games.
Good day!
Ps. Trust me! I've bought just about every gaming console you could think of or have never heard of and I've been present through tons of launches.
@Cohort what injustice? Small Install base. Anything that has to do with mp has deal with small install base. Need for speed? They gave us plethora of added features and was an awesome port. Help me out here which games are you referring too? Watchdog will have all its content, assassin's creed will to. Batman lost mp due to small install and blacklist has more features then the other versions.
@Cohort features were being cut so there would be no delay. For example splinter cell's off-line co-op. The other reason was due to low install base. I can't think of a single wii u game that was delayed and then had features removed so that it can launch at the same time as others.
But this is not the case with this game. They are adding wii u gameplay specifics and nothing was mentioned of features being removed.
@PerezBro99 Mass effect 3 was never ment for the wii u when it came out so its not the same. It was a quick sloppy port over and the reason it took so long was because the wii u wasn't out yet. The wii u is out now and I would rather they take a little extra time so its not just a sloppy port.
@WiiURockz I would rather have the developers take their time with the port and add nintendo specific features then have a rushed port just so that it released the same day. Nintendo fans are never happy about anything. We got made cause splinter cell lost off line co-op play so that it can launch the same day and people were saying we would rather have it delayed to include all features.
So now a company that is doing that so can have all features and nintendo specific features we are complaining again.
@SyFyTy really? A year? I've been following it for since 2010 and I own one. Lets see, first of all its hd and it's processing and architecture is more efficient and superior not only to the wii, but also to xbox360 and ps3. The gamepad has a lot of innovating and fun features. Zombiu, black ops, pikmin 3, game & wario and the wonderful 101(I've played it) demonstrate some of the possibilities. Mario kart looks and plays awesome and looks good enough to be a ps4 game! So does pikmin 3. What developers stated that it was hard to show people just how awesome it is without owning one.
@element187 You bought black ops 2 for $60? It was $39 when I purchased it which was in December 2012. I think it's great that we're getting Cod: Ghost and sponge bob. Ghost is modern warfare and not the sequel black ops. Treyarch developed black ops and infintyward did ghost.
@Peek-a-boo I've been to several shows already and have been quite impress with wii u's demos. You'd be suprise what that machine can do. Smash Bros, Mario Kart, The wonderful 101 and Bayonetta looked just as good as the ps4 demos I got to check out.
