Let me clarify, what does the Wii U version have to offer that the other systems don't? I know Nintendo wants third party adoption and that's all fine and dandy, but I'm not sure as a consumer I want to support development that doesn't leverage what this system has to offer. Is this a straight port?

They thought of everything. This is great!

Can someone re-review this game with an idea about how it looks and plays on the wii u? Maybe tell us about what features it supports and so forth, after all this site is nintendolife. I don't go to this site for the ps3 review. I'm frankly confused.

I think it will be called "The boy with the creepy eyes"

It will be launching in the spring, but we will allow you to access it today, but not an official launch, a pretend launch. We will continue to allow you to download a new game each month until the "official" launch when we say "it's the official launch", but until then make believe launch is now, not a real official launch, just a pretend, pretend its a launch, not really a launch, because it hasn't been officialized yet.

Wow, I didn't know people actually liked these. It just got a sequel.

February when? Loved the original.

Super Metroid!

Wow, this was actually a good press conference.

I don't think it's pricing, just needs a demo or something. I'm not going to buy the game for screenshots. I don't know if it's fun.

This is an excellent game. Have beaten it multiple times on 3ds using circle pad pro. Would be nice on a bigger screen. I'll double dip if the price is right. Note: I've never played a resident evil game, but it feels like Gears of War and you can't go wrong with this gameplay. Additionally, the characters are too tough to ever make you feel vulnerable; so this is more action than horror.

We regret we will be delaying pikmin 3 until July...

Looks fantastic

If used companies pay royalties, then developers can keep their people working. Much like music, it needs to have some sort of digital reference so the author can get paid for their creativity. Places like gamestop are stealing from these authors. You're always going to have these big corporate money making developers like Activision, but how do Indies survive on a brick & mortar shelf? The simple answer is they don't, they have to rely on digital because they can't survive in retail. At some point retail games will enter a collectors period where they simply aren't earning money and can be sold used, like a second hand shop. But this is much different than an enterprise based on used sales. Even so, if all games switch to digital you'll see more creative games and new ip's rather than rehashes. Don't confuse indie with corporate, I'm not talking some 30+ person band that builds mutant mudds, I'm talking any creative person or persons who has taken it upon themselves to build a new game like mechcraft on IOS or cave story on PC.

I'm not saying consumers buying used games are stealing. I'm saying companies that sell used games are stealing from developers because they don't pay them royalties and this further drives the price of retail. It's a matter of perspective, but not intended to offend anyone, just my opinion that companies like THQ are directly impacted.

Technically used game sales don't belong to retailers. In many aspects they've stolen from developers. I like buying used games, but now that I'm older you see how this fundamental piracy has caused great concerns for unemployed developers who put their heart and soul into a title. You say "they've got plenty of money, bla bla bla" but you'll see downloadable games at much cheaper prices than retail. Retail games will stay high to offset the expected piracy each year. Factually speaking, download only games will get much cheaper and have to compete on a much broader scale if we all move to digital. Additionally, it's only seasonal underpaid checkers that are impacted, that would do much better working somewhere else. Their wages are unresponsible considering their companies' profits. I have moved to all digital for this reason.

Remember when they used to show gameplay in previews/commercials. Not anymore.

Ps Vita's commercial showed remote play, but we know that never happened. It was pure false advertising, but I don't recall it getting pulled. UK must have better enforcement for that.

I agree. It is a bit misleading. Not to mention the commercial isn't that good. Should say that many games allow the User to play remotely. I would assume they all did from the commercial and not be happy if I didn't know otherwise.

I haven't seen any gameplay yet, so better be good if they want these price points.

I read they sold 1.1 million across consoles according to npd, that's not a bad number. It went platinum.

If I was MS I would be paying people to spin negative articles about Nintendo too. This is a competitive landscape. In the meetings, however, they see this as a respectable piece of technology and their reputation exceeds themselves.

That price is reasonable.

I owe renegade kid an apology from some of my earlier comments. This game has excellent quality and is well worth the price.

Bad review, it's an overly expensive interactive book. Makes it sound like a tactics game, but it's not. 99% dialog and some tapping and frustrating menus. Nothing more. Huge disappointment.

Analyst is comparing retail sales. That doesn't work anymore, games have gone digital. More MS and Sony bias. They spin the data.

Paid by MS and Sony. They are more concerned about survival. I like my ps3, but predict Sony will bomb this generation.

That's a good idea.

Good work, with the exception of the bad word used in one scene. How an I supposed to show my kids with that in there?

Frozenbyte, this is a good way to lose consumer trust.

Taxes went up here in the states; don't think many people will be going to buy a wii u anytime soon. We'll all be spending our time trying to figure out how to live with this government's tax hikes.

Retro is incredible. Why leave?

I like the visuals, feels like skyward sword.

Ninty will be fine, but steam will kill the other two. Steam box is inevitable and already has 40 million subscribers. The other two will need to go subscription multi platform to survive because of their limited franchises. That's my guess, hope I'm wrong.

Bioware is a strange company and this game's view of ethics screams dimentia.

There you have it. BTW, is this game any good?

I could only get one on their online store so I ordered it there because I didn't want to be harassed by their low pay crazies.

Additionally, why pay $60 for a last gen game anyways?

I' m more interested in those titles that are developed from the ground up for Wii U. No more ports for me.

Won't work well. Developers are finding that streaming Internet couples with an Internet interface is very difficult. Recent example is ps vitas remote play using wifi, frame rate and constant hiccups for intense action can be somewhat frustrating. The technology is out there, but fairly low quality compared to a dedicated handheld like wii u.

Whew, good stuff.

It's because everyone hates gamestop. 'You need to buy the gameplay guarantee for an extra $5!' Shoved down your throat. Then they pull out the manual and some gyro controller. Leave me alone gamestop!

No kidding, the game is loaded. Anymore and they would had Mass Effect the thing.

Pikmin 2 was definitely better than 1, but it had a lot of content that was never utilized. I don't want a reiteration, but something new. Pikmin on Nintendoland is pretty good, so hope this is refreshingly different, because I don't the same game twice.

I think Bayonetta succeeded because of timing, it was all that came out in a three month vacancy. I don't think it will impact many again for that reason; too much other content being released. I hope I'm wrong.

Played it; the literally took the soul out of it.

Sounds like their pricing model isn't any good and they failed to advertise. Stores decide what they provide in their inventory.

Sounds like a cop out for low quality software. You gave consumers a demo and they still didn't buy your game; that's not piracy, that's lack of depth (no pun intended).

Capcom didn't exactly have a bang up year. I was really impressed by Dragon's Dogma, but critics and User reviews said different. The resident evil series didn't do too well and the best of the franchise, Revelations, was already on the 3DS. I don't think its confusing that they won't be promoting their 2012 content. I think 2013 will be dramatically different. I've never played Monster Hunter, but now that's its an early release on my favorite system they'll earn my money.

Wow, I love this site. No paid bias here or tampering, actual results here.
