@Chuckie-Doll The fact that it's better than the Sarah Pallin look.
She looks FA-BU-LOUS! I...really want to know who's that kid at the end, though... This game will probably be even better than Bayonetta 1, considering Nintendo's helping Platinum on the development of this one
I haven't seen the entire Nintendo Direct...I HAVE seen all the trailer shown at it, though! I will be watching the entire thing in a few minutes, maybe hours.
@Phantom_R Why would you get the 3DS version? The only reason people play Super Smash is to play it with friends...which...is kinda impossible to do on the 3DS.
@Tuurtledove What some people don't understand is that Retro is good thanks to Nintendo. When they were working for Nintendo AND Acclaim (Akklaim?), the three games they were developing for them were horrible (according to Retro's director)...that is, until Nintendo bought the rest of Retro Studios from Acclaim and Miyamoto told them to cancel Raven Blade (and another game they were developing) to focus on Metroid Prime (the third game they were developing back then). We all know how that ended.
Eh...Nintendo Life, I know this is a VERY weird question but...uh...
Is there any way for you guys to know if Joss Whedon would like to work on the Metroid franchise? Specifically on Samus as a character? >_> After what happened with Samus in Other M, Joss Whedon working as the next metroid game's writer would be a godsend...
@MagicEmperor I agree, actually. I remember there was some sort of hype for this game, and then people were like "...Oh, it's for the Wii U? ...Nevermind"
...Wait, I just realized...the E3...'a few weeks'...
OOOOH MY GOD NINTENDO BOUGHT THE DEVELOPMENT STUDIO!!!
...Maybe? Well, they said they're relaunching the kickstarter...sigh hope this doesn't means it's coming to other consoles, it will sell like crap on the Wii U if it does...
Uh...I dunno. The game looks great, sure, but so did Assassin's Creed 1, Red Steel 1, ZombiU...1?...
Thing is, new IPs at Ubisoft tend to be just 'good', they're not excellent, great, or anything like that. Hopefully this is their biggest exception yet since Prince of Persia: Sands of Time (not a completely new IP at the time, but still).
I really hope this game ends up being actually good and...well, sells a lot on the WIi U! PLEASE do!
I'm quite worried about Next Level Games. Thing is, they're not a first party developer of Nintendo, they don't even have an exclusivity deal with Nintendo or anything! IMHO, Nintendo should buy them. And WayForward. And Yacht Club Games. And Platinum Games. And Atlus. And SEGA.
@Caryslan It's not hard to see why things can't "turn around" for the VITA in the west. First of all, the japanese VITA is getting a lot more games than the north american (and european I guess) VITA. Second, a price drop won't be enough, just look at the Wii U in europe. Third, Sony's main business is the HOME console business, not the portable console business. Unless they start focusing on the VITA (which will never happen), things won't be better for it.
Is that simple enough? All Nintendo needs for the Wii U is Mario Kart...not even a price drop.
Geez, ubisoft sure loves to support failing consoles...I mean, seriously, the VITA is flopping even harder than the Wii U, the thing is the Wii U will start selling a lot better soon...
@Zombie_Barioth That doesn't mean any of the ideas used in the manga/anime are canon to the GAMES, they're all made up by their respective writers. They're three completely different universes.
Why do people keep mentioning the anime/movies/manga as if they were related to the games at all? It's good to hear different theories guys, but don't treat the anime as if they were canon, so to say.
Wait, WHAT?! You want EVEN MORE demand?! The game sold 800,000 copies around the world and it was the second critically acclaimed pokémon spin-off (after Pokémon Snap). You're not doing your job, bro!
