I think Nintendo should get Sega and (whoever owns) Hudson on board and get a Sonic Maker and Adventure Island maker DLC. The possibilities are endless.
This is probably the worst thing I've ever experienced with an online payment. They must be in a complete mess to not even be emailing affected customers. They normally ship the orders on the Monday to arrive on before the street date! I get the feeling this preorder isn't even going to arrive on Friday.
I'm up to 7 now. What a bunch of jokers. There'd better be some nice compensation for this. I'm gonna struggle to pay bills if they clean out my account!
Pay to win DLC is horrific. If this game has more players than CoD Ghosts and BO2 on Wii U, I might still buy it for the novelty of violence against humans on a Nintendo.
Someone already said it but this just looks like a Wii U mini or generic (apart from the display on the controller) console patent. I hope they stick with the display in the controller but make it smaller and make the console capable of supporting 4 at once.
25 year old father of 5? I'm surprised anyone who complains about the way a toy holds a boomerang has ever been with a woman. He was probably desperate for money.
I feel guilty now but I believe my comment was 'this guy hates money so much that he's jeopardising his employment' in reference to him talking about fans claims that Nintendo hate money!
I just hope NX has at least enough power to load games at the speed I expect from a Nintendo. Wii U failed horribly in that respect, despite 5 previous consoles that were the opposite.
MK8 has brilliant value DLC when you consider that for £11 you add almost 50% more content to a great £50 game. I think the Smash DLC is horribly overpriced when you consider that for £20 you add about 5% more content to a £50 game.
I think it's pretty obvious why Nintendo didn't buy Rare. MS offered an insane sum of money for a studio that was never going to make that much money for Nintendo around that time. It's probably been one of the most 'anti-gamer' acquisitions of all time. Rare could have gone on to be as big as Rockstar. Shame on everyone involved.

It will really annoy me if some of the same reviewers give this better scores!!
The only things I would change about Zombi U are; slightly better controls, less screaming from the survivor, all the graphics up to the same level as the best looking bits and less loading. I would love a sequel on Wii U with a 3rd person view and a massive portion of London to explore without loading screens. I wouldn't care if they went Red Steel 2 and made the graphics basic but stylised instead of scruffy but detailed.
I hope this is so successful that Nintendo start making more things like this. They need to fill every niche that PS4 doesn't and being 'the console you can make your own games on' would probably be a decent selling point.
I admire his conviction. I'm gonna try this out at some point. I'm pretty sure it will be bad because it seems to be a universal consensus at the moment but I often find fun when others don't. I saw reviews of Zombi U that rated it down with the Flappy Bird clones, I loved the game when I played it. I saw reviews of Ninja Gaiden 3 on Wii U that made it sound like a broken mess. I think it is only few rungs below Bayonetta on the beat em up ladder and has some aspects I actually preferred. (although a Platinum made NG game would be my dream come true) Sonic Racing got good reviews for Wii U but I thought it was a stuttery, broken mess.
In summary, I won't knock it til I've tried it. For less than £10
@ZeroZX-Dev what do you know about HL3...? please share... My theory is that Valve are waiting for ray tracing to be feasible for gaming so they can make a game that looks like nothing seen before. I just hope they don't try to 'raise the bar for emotions in gaming' like every overly hyped gaming epic seems to try these days...

@SuperWiiU that's what I was going to say
Re: Talking Point: Star Fox Zero's Delay Could Be The Final Nail In The Wii U's Coffin
The coffin was nailed shut in 2013 and it's been damage limitation since.
StarFox as 'the big Xmas release' is a worse idea than just promoting MK8 and Mario Maker bundles.
Re: Miyamoto: Star Fox Zero Has Been Delayed, "I Am Very Sorry"
Annoying but I could do with saving money. If Mario Tennis is half decent I'll be busy enough.
Re: Interview: Yosuke Oshino On The Origins And Evolution Of Super Mario Maker
I phoned and they told me it was shipped. I got my final refunds by the time I phoned. Fingers crossed it actually arrives!
Re: Super Mario Maker DLC Confirmed, Famitsu's Mascot Necky The Fox Coming Soon
I think Nintendo should get Sega and (whoever owns) Hudson on board and get a Sonic Maker and Adventure Island maker DLC. The possibilities are endless.
Re: Interview: Yosuke Oshino On The Origins And Evolution Of Super Mario Maker
I'm really getting anxious about the fact that GAME haven't emailed me to say my order has been shipped. They've refunded me 4 out of 7 payments.
Re: Talking Point: Nintendo's Challenge With Super Mario's 2D Future
I'm not sure if it was intentional but the 2D sections of Mario Galaxy always seemed years ahead of the NSMB games to me.
Re: GAME Apologises for Super Mario Maker Pre-Order Issue, Should Repay Extra Charges in the "Next Couple of Days"
I got that email an they told me they wouldn't give me a PS4 as compensation
Still no sign of the 'shipped' email.
Re: GAME Processes Additional Charges on Super Mario Maker Pre-Orders
This is probably the worst thing I've ever experienced with an online payment. They must be in a complete mess to not even be emailing affected customers. They normally ship the orders on the Monday to arrive on before the street date! I get the feeling this preorder isn't even going to arrive on Friday.
I hope their compensation is substantial.
Re: GAME Processes Additional Charges on Super Mario Maker Pre-Orders
This is obviously their PS4 fanboyism at play again.
It almost seems like they've been hacked and have no idea of the extent of the hack
Re: GAME Promises Quick Refunds After Charging Customers for Too Many Super Mario Maker Pre-Orders
The next shock will be that they oversold the Amiibo bundle and can't fulfil all the orders

Re: GAME Promises Quick Refunds After Charging Customers for Too Many Super Mario Maker Pre-Orders
@ThomasBW84 I got the whole 5 taken too!
I told them I expect a PS4 for my troubles
Re: Pikmin 4 is "Very Close to Completion", Though Its Platform is Unclear
@brandonbwii
PS4 - Pikmin Station 4
Re: Pikmin 4 is "Very Close to Completion", Though Its Platform is Unclear
Clearly going to be on PS4
I hope it includes dual screen and online coop story mode and more than 5 areas this time.
Re: Review: Super Mario Maker (Wii U)
I'm now looking forward to getting my wisdom teeth removed because I don't go back to work for 4 days
Re: Review: Super Mario Maker (Wii U)
Would have been a great launch game for Wii U!
I hope it's successful enough for them to do this for other games. I want a top-down Zelda maker!
Re: Review: Genghis Khan II: Clan of the Gray Wolf (Wii U eShop / SNES)
This or romance of the three kingdoms?
Re: Rumour: XSEED Less Than Happy With Nintendo's About-Face On Publishing Devil's Third
I think Nintendo could have done a better job with this in more areas than just the publishing fiasco.
I hope Project Treasure doesn't end up being a mess like this!
Re: Review: Devil's Third (Wii U)
Pay to win DLC is horrific. If this game has more players than CoD Ghosts and BO2 on Wii U, I might still buy it for the novelty of violence against humans on a Nintendo.
Re: Video: Metroid in Unreal Engine 4 is Shiny and Slightly Strange
I think Nintendo will make something better looking for their next 'proper' Metroid game but that because I doubt it will be before the year 2031
Re: New Patent Sparks Talk of Potential NX Details
Someone already said it but this just looks like a Wii U mini or generic (apart from the display on the controller) console patent. I hope they stick with the display in the controller but make it smaller and make the console capable of supporting 4 at once.

@Boxmonkey Pachter said Wii U would sell 50M units straight after it launched
Re: Pokkén Tournament Trademark Surfaces In Europe, NFC Connectivity Mentioned
I'd be surprised if Nintendo turn down the chance to have an Amiibo Pokemon game. Probably won't be the one people are asking for.

Re: Video: Learn More About the Experimental Rayman 4 That Got Dropped in Favour of Raving Rabbids
@Xaessya no it wasn't. Not saying it was good but abomination is over the top.
Re: A Resident Evil 2 Remake Has Been Confirmed
These remakes are paving the way for a reboot. I doubt Capcom would be willing to spend money on a Wii U version of anything other than VC games.
I hope they find a way to make the puzzles make sense. I always thought RE2's puzzles were a bit too haunted housey to be found in a Police Station
Re: Early NX Reveal Was To "Reinforce Commitment" To Dedicated Hardware, Claims Nintendo's Scott Moffitt
I just hope NX has at least enough power to load games at the speed I expect from a Nintendo. Wii U failed horribly in that respect, despite 5 previous consoles that were the opposite.

Re: Xenoblade Chronicles X Wii U Bundle and Special Edition Confirmed for Europe, Wii Original on the eShop Now
Yay! I won't be able to complete this before XCX but will give it a better try than any of the other 30 games on it!
Re: Talking Point: Nintendo's Game Updates and DLC Are Fantastic, Albeit Starved of Attention
MK8 has brilliant value DLC when you consider that for £11 you add almost 50% more content to a great £50 game. I think the Smash DLC is horribly overpriced when you consider that for £20 you add about 5% more content to a £50 game.

It will probably sell 10,000 copies and get a sequel on PS4

I wonder if they remove cloned levels.
Re: If Nintendo Did Decide To Make A Smartphone, We'd Want It To Look Like This
Hideous.
I think a Nintendo phone should be a DS clamshell designed console with a touch screen phone integrated on to the the top panel.

Re: Speculation Grows That AMD Will Provide the Nintendo NX Processor
I just hope they launch with a genuine big hitter or something that instantly wows. MK8 would have been a great launch title.
The Wii U seems like the most wasted potential there's ever been in a console.
