@Vincent294 to be honest... AugustusOxy is always up in here, Trollin' some way or other his posts get edited (unless he uses 5-year-old slang in his daily life) or, in this case, pulled?
@Dezzy I think they are... Since they mentioned the TV show tie-in was doing well enough to spawn a sequel to what was essentially a mediocre title. I think this is where they are going, TV tie-ins with quick and easy mobile games.
So... Where's this "female" Link everybody is talking about? Looking at what I see in this post, that's a younger Link with a crossbow. Sorry. I don't care. I was tricked into reading this article. Ignore my post after reading it.
@Kirk I'd like to look at your examples... But for lawds's sake, no screenshots?! I mean, I like YouTube as much as the next person, but you've typed up so much, I dont want to miss a word while watching eight 3-minute videos just so I can see AN example of what your talking about. Screenshot 1 second... Or better yet, just a game title showing these examples.
Where are the darn Amiibo cards already?! Geez... Until I realized how many Amiibo there would be, I was on board to collect them all (no. No pun inferred) now, since the issues arose, and there are like 100+ Amiibo on the way... I jus want the cards (So they can go neatly into a folder next to my U) :/
Alright! Wipeout for Wii U! P.S. How about we no longer talk about that dead racing project whatever... Like God of War and Halo, it ain't comin' to the U. (Besides, let's stop giving them free publicity, no games, no publicity)
@Marec409 as the OP of this "debate" hasn't chimed in yet, I'm holding off any further comments concerning said subject (I get your point, I just feel we got trolled)... And yes, Sexism/Racism is a serious accusation, still don't mean people don't think that way. I, along with other minorities deal with it on a daily basis... On to the actual news: Did you pick up the bundle? since its for charity (and the only time I've given to charity is 1$ at the market, and I believe that was only twice) I was looking at 3$ per game with a 2:1 split in favor of the charity (since I own all but 2.5 of the titles already, one on Wii U but not 3DS)!
@Marec409 sorry... We got off on the wrong foot. As a parent that has sent his child to school for game design (if that's even a field... He's claims there's work at the end of the tunnel) and hearing about the sexism in the gaming industry, I have a bit of a skewed view. Supporting underrepresented people is a charity, because if someone didn't help us, we would still be without voting, or rights
@Marec409 so.. I may not have an opinion? I guess since I'm a minority, my opinion don't matter so I should sit down and shirt up? You can understand him, but not me? I said more than that one sentence (which you jumped all over), why no mention of the lack of real Dev support on his end? Oh wait, you believe the way he does... Cool. Next time though STFU.
I understand the concerns with "race to the bottom" pricing, but why not mention that games may be overpriced for the current generation of gamers. Let's face it, 10$ off physical titles/15$ off digital would go a long way in moving product... Not saying that devs don't deserve their money, but if they are not going to see much money due to pricing policies, that's not our fault as gamers.
@ALinkttPresent you talk of charities saving lives... Yet you claim that you will only give your cash to the devs to create more games... Why did you not buy the titles when they were full price to support them? Also, the beginning of your post, is sexist/racist at best. what you said was "I'd rather underpay devs than give one dime to women or minorities". I'd rethink that statement, as no matter how you read it, you come off like a jerk.
@Onion thank you! For clearly stating what needed to be said... On the occasion that I want to play a cartridge game, I clean the contacts first (as I don't want to promote any further degradation of the contacts points - console or cartridge) my first PS1 finally lost the drive on the console, sure I was able to repair it,, but how much longer will said parts company be in business? I say, Play your games, now, isn't that why we bought 'em? BTW, I love all my old consoles, why I still have 'em!
@ultraraichu trust me, this game is all about grind... Just keep playing, you'll be great at it soon enough... A lot of people I know didn't really like this game at first, but when they kept at it, they got good!
Oh no! Let's all whine and cry about the lack of social media outlets we are limited to! Who cares!? Except those hoping to get little kids to read their vulgar Miiverse post. Go ahead and argue that, see how silly it sounds as you type it. "I only have Twitter, Facebook, Pintrest... Waaaaaaaaaagh!" Yup that's what you sound like. No questions about it. GOOD WORK NINTENDO, leave the trolls behind... Miiverse is a joke, the faster they remove that feature, the faster we can move on from "Social Media" (no, Miiverse is just a place for you to SEE something someone posted, no real interaction, just loads of "look at me") on our consoles.... Too much to say, gotta get back to playing games, and stop socializing.
So the one thing that needs more definition has been completely left out of that video let's face it, not many people (if any) are sold on the VIP software...
@rjejr @Captain_Gonru I see... That does sound kinda sneaky. Essentially all they did was "cross-platform" the game and doubled the price for it. Sounds very Nintendo, doesn't it?
So... We no longer judge consoles on entertainment value? Just solely on sales? Wow. I'm sure this is why the industry is failing miserably for the console side... smartphone games sell the most these days! So, we should just play those, also, they're free! Stupid discussion, were gaming, not running a company. Let's all go back to finding good games the old fashioned way, without sales figures.
I was all excited... Then I realized you needed skill to create your own great job dude! I wish I had that level of skill and creativity! (but I do hope they make a DIY Game & Watch!)
@NorthLightSuplx did you say we could watch WWE's Wrestlemania, tonight, for ONLY $9.99?! What are you all waiting for? oh yeah... Been looking forward to Takers return (I know he's old, but WM last year left a bad taste in my mouth)
@accc seriously... This is the question you think is appropriate for asking? There are a million other things to ask, but you gotta troll?! Stop. Please. Be civil. This is why devs don't like to talk to their consumers, look at the type of question you're asking... Don't reply with some lame-ass "trying to prove you're right" comment, not interested, and neither is anyone else.
@liveswired your mom. Since we were insulting people I wanted in! I just want to be one of the cool kids.... Also, Nintendo and Sony did team up, that's why we have the Sony Playstation...
@Caryslan @ToneDeath I have the same concerns as @ToneDeath... I hope this turns out as a positive for us all (consumers and creators, both) and that we don't end up with a useless (or worse, defunct) account system after a year or so. I see what @Caryslan is saying about them not giving up on console titles, but at the same time, I've seen kids drop great games in favor of just sitting on their butts to play repetitious mobile titles, simply because it required less effort So, there's that fear as well, that an average Mobile title will blow up like Candy Crush or Angry Birds. Eh, too much talking from me, your turn!
You know what would be nice? A dedicated Virtual Console. No new games, all online, buy what you want, rent to try... Kinda like an Apple TV/Roku, but with GOOD games. Lets see what these "Moble" Nintendo games look like.
