The GTA games are awesome. There's a reason that the series is so popular, believe it or not. Even though I will likely buy this on PS3 or PS4, the Wii U needs more third party support like this, and Nintendo only gamers need to buy it.
Saying you want third party support and yet not buying the third party games that do come out for the Wii U (Black Ops II for example) isn't going to encourage third party developers to jump ship on the Wii U. The fact that Rockstar has possibly considered a Wii U version is a miracle in itself.
Now if Mario Super Picross was released here in NA, I would actually have a new Wii U VC game to buy. But knowing Nintendo, it will remain in Europe for some d*mn reason.
This is one of those games that never gets old. Even though I own this game in every possible form except for the GBA remake, I still bought this version. After all, thirty cents is a steal for this game.
@kieryh If that was an attempt at making yourself look smart and cool, then you fail on every level. The Vita is way more powerful than the 3DS, and saying crap like that shows how much you know about the Vita.
And Phil Fish is a hypocrite, so I can't take anything he says seriously.
@thames6376: So you joined just to make that lame comment? I guess I really must have stirred up your soul.
Anyway, to put it rather bluntly, I don't care for Kickstarter. It started off as something good, but developers have become way too reliant on it. Kickstarter has the right to exist, but developers have turned it into something that I'm not really fond of.
I'm twenty-two years old by the way, so anyone insulting my age are wasting their time. I don't like putting down money for games that may NOT turn out good regardless of funding. Developers might not give a sh*t about the quality of their games after they've received their ''funding''.
I'll pay for Kickstarter games, once they are out and reviewed if there is one that I'm interested in. But I'm not going to pay money for the development of a game that I might dislike or hate. It's essentially gambling that I can avoid.
The ever-increasing amount of Kickstarter projects are beginning to concern me. I'm not exactly crazy about putting money down on games that I've never played. Hopefully, this Kickstarter craze will die down soon.
People wanting Banjo-Threeie need to go with this because this is likely the closest you will ever get to an actual ''sequel'' to Banio-Tooie. This game (unlike Nuts & Bolts) is good fun.
No offense Team Meat, but I think you better port Super Meat Boy to the Wii U and 3DS before you ask Nintendo to put the character himself in a Smash Bros. game.
I'm curious on how many extras and enhancements that this port will have, because I might buy this instead of the PS3 version depending on what's in the Wii U version.
I don't mind online single player games sometimes if it's done well and enhances the experience, but I don't want it forced upon me. I really like you Crytek, but this is not one of your good ideas.
Since it seems like the PS3 version is going to have exclusive content (and trophies), I'll get that version instead. Kind of a shame because I might have taken the plunge on the Wii U version if that wasn't the case concerning the former.

Re: Review: Mario's Super Picross (Wii U eShop / Super Nintendo)
I really would buy this if NOA wasn't so foolish...
Re: There's Still Plenty Of Interest In Older Pokémon Games
Well, the ''older'' versions aren't exactly old to begin with, you know.
Re: Talking Point: What Games Are You Playing This Weekend? - Issue Twelve
I'll probably be playing Super Mario Bros. 2 (Super Mario All-Stars Wii version), Toki Tori 2, and Pokemon Mystery Dungeon: Gates to Infinity.
Re: Capcom Announces Two More Wii U Virtual Console Titles In May
Serious lack of Sega support in Wii U VC is disappointing. I hope that changes soon.
Re: Super Retro Trio Plays SNES, Genesis, NES and GBA Games
The RetroN5 still sounds better.
Re: Platinum's Inaba: Wonderful 101 Is So Much Fun You'll "Wear Out Your GamePad"
Why are people making such a big deal about the length of the game? If it contains as much replay value as Star Fox 64, then I'll sure as hell buy it.
Re: Rumour: GTA V Has Been Tested On Wii U Dev Kits For Some Time
The GTA games are awesome. There's a reason that the series is so popular, believe it or not. Even though I will likely buy this on PS3 or PS4, the Wii U needs more third party support like this, and Nintendo only gamers need to buy it.

Re: Angry Video Game Nerd Adventures Is Coming To Nintendo Platforms
Best news ever!
Re: Nintendo Download: 27th April - Virtual Console (Europe)
Now if Mario Super Picross was released here in NA, I would actually have a new Wii U VC game to buy. But knowing Nintendo, it will remain in Europe for some d*mn reason.
Re: Wii U Virtual Console Launch Lineup Is Revealed
Lame launch list is beyond lame, but I'm not surprised.
Re: First Toki Tori 2 Patch Submitted to Nintendo
Kind of ironic because I just started playing this yesterday.
Re: Harmony of Heroes, A Smash Bros. Fan Album, is Set to Arrive in 2014
Would be ironic if SSB4 was released before this.
Re: Rumour: Wii U System Update Could Go Live Tomorrow
I can't wait to get my hands on Earthbound and all of those GBA games!
Re: Review: Kirby's Adventure (Wii U eShop / NES)
This is one of those games that never gets old. Even though I own this game in every possible form except for the GBA remake, I still bought this version. After all, thirty cents is a steal for this game.
Re: First Impressions: Donkey Kong Country Returns 3D
The extra levels alone makes this port worth buying.
Re: Reggie: Pace Of Wii U Software Launches Is "Slower Than Hoped"
The only good thing I can say about the Wii U's launch is that it at least launched with a good Mario game...and that's it.
Re: Game & Wario Brings Mayhem to North America on 23rd June
Sweet, I can't wait to get my hands on this!
Re: Review: LEGO City Undercover: The Chase Begins (3DS)
It sounds like I better just stick with the Wii U version.
Re: A Mario Party is Getting Started on 3DS This Winter
I might buy this if it has online multiplayer.
Re: Mega Man Soundtracks Released on U.S. Capcom Store
Stay classy, Capcom.
Re: Talking Point: The Blurring Lines of Kickstarter Fundraising Goals
Very good article. This is why I don't fund Kickstarter projects, even if said project looks awesome.
Re: Feature: Ten SEGA Mega Drive / Genesis Games We Want on the Wii U Virtual Console
Seeing World of Illusion on the Wii U VC would be epic.
Re: Batman: Arkham Origins Confirmed for Wii U
Rockstar is probably making a Grand Theft Auto and Batman crossover...
Re: LEGO Batman 2: DC Super Heroes Release Date Emerges From The Batcave
Unless the Wii U version offers something extra and worthwhile, then I'll likely just buy the PS3 version down the road.
Re: Castle of Illusion Starring Mickey Mouse Looks Set For Wii U
YES! Now we just need World of Illusion!
Re: Donkey Kong Country Returns 3D Has Local Co-op Play And An Easy Mode
Extra content? I might have to double dip after all...
Re: Aliens: Colonial Marines Cancelled on Wii U
This is actually a good thing.
Re: Site News: Happy "Nintendo Life" Anniversary!
Happy Anniversary, NL! Have I really been on here THAT long?
Re: Square Enix Teases New Projects on Anniversary Website
Bravely Default and Final Fantasy Type-0 localization announcement or GTFO, Square Enix.
Re: Talking Point: What Games Are You Playing This Weekend? - Easter Edition
Hopefully Star Fox 64 3D, Mega Man, and New Super Mario Bros. U.
Re: Talking Point: An Open Letter To Nintendo
''Zelda hasn't been exciting since Ocarina.''
i can't take anyone who says crap like this even remotely seriously, so what a waste of a letter.
Re: Harvest Moon Heading to North American 3DS eShop in Late April
I don't really care for Harvest Moon but is Legend of the River King any good? It looks interesting...
Re: Renegade Kid Open To Idea Of Moon Sequel
I still need to play my copy of Moon...
Re: Review: Need for Speed: Most Wanted U (Wii U)
That pun was bad and you should feel bad.
Still, I might look into getting this game.
Re: Fez Creator Believes Monster Hunter 3 Ultimate is More Suited To Vita
@kieryh If that was an attempt at making yourself look smart and cool, then you fail on every level. The Vita is way more powerful than the 3DS, and saying crap like that shows how much you know about the Vita.
And Phil Fish is a hypocrite, so I can't take anything he says seriously.
Re: All New DuckTales is Coming to Wii U
This has got to be an early April Fools' Day joke...right?
Right?
Re: Earthbound Creator, Shigesato Itoi, Gearing Up to Play SNES Classic in Live Stream
Oh, you have GOT to be kidding me...
Re: Super Metroid is 19 Years Old Today
Reading this article makes me feel very old.
Re: Wii U Version Of Deus Ex Will Be The "Ultimate Edition Of The Game"
it looks like good things come to those who wait.

Re: Review: Monster Hunter 3 Ultimate (Wii U)
One of the reasons I even bought a Wii U in the first place. Definitely going to buy this and the 3DS version when I have the money!

The ever-increasing amount of Kickstarter projects are beginning to concern me. I'm not exactly crazy about putting money down on games that I've never played. Hopefully, this Kickstarter craze will die down soon.
Re: Review: Banjo-Kazooie: Grunty's Revenge (Game Boy Advance)
People wanting Banjo-Threeie need to go with this because this is likely the closest you will ever get to an actual ''sequel'' to Banio-Tooie. This game (unlike Nuts & Bolts) is good fun.
I wish I could find my copy of this game...
Re: Team Meat: We'd Work With Nintendo If Meat Boy Made It Into Smash Bros.
No offense Team Meat, but I think you better port Super Meat Boy to the Wii U and 3DS before you ask Nintendo to put the character himself in a Smash Bros. game.
Re: F-Zero AX Found Hidden In GameCube F-Zero GX
So essentially all that I need is an Action Replay, GameCube (which I already have), and a copy of F-Zero GX? Amazing if that's the case.
Re: Review: Jeopardy! (Wii U)
No online multiplayer? Sigh...
Re: "Modified" Version of Deus Ex: Human Revolution Classified by Australian Ratings Board
I'm curious on how many extras and enhancements that this port will have, because I might buy this instead of the PS3 version depending on what's in the Wii U version.
Re: Crytek CEO: "The Notion Of A Single Player Experience Has To Go Away"
I don't mind online single player games sometimes if it's done well and enhances the experience, but I don't want it forced upon me. I really like you Crytek, but this is not one of your good ideas.

Since it seems like the PS3 version is going to have exclusive content (and trophies), I'll get that version instead. Kind of a shame because I might have taken the plunge on the Wii U version if that wasn't the case concerning the former.
Re: Runner 2 Confirmed For This Week On North American Wii U eShop
Funny on how I got a Wii U right before the day it releases...
