@ThomasBW84 "it's confirmed that the title runs at a native 720p, as is typically expected on Wii U."
How pathetic of NintendoLife, they did not prove anything, anybody that can type into a keyboard could of said what DF said in the article, they did not prove or disprove that it runs at 720p or 1080p, I honestly could care less about it but the fact that you guys buy into this is funny as hell.
the gamepad is part of the reason I bought a Wii U, I come home late at night after work and I don't like to disturb other peoples sleep so I start playing off screen, people who say they haven't made use of the gamepad either don't own a Wii U, played enough games or are just blind.... ever wonder why sony and ms are now trying to use a second screen?
@Spartacus3765 aw I just read it has the blue shell figurine.. oh well at least people that don't live close can still get the other bundle but dam! I feel this is gonna cause a lot of confusion for those that don't know about the other bundle.
@Action51 Not saying it's 100% true but from the looks of it, he was translating little bits of information about the meeting, so ill take my chances.. check out the rest here..
it would be great if they have hidden unlockable characters OR they can still make up for it with a free dlc of more characters.. either way I'm excited for this game, I can't wait!!
@Agent721 lol Nintendo will be fine, we would of heard about layoffs and assets being sold by now if it was even close to being true... I'm waiting to see how the Wii U does by the end of the year... they are releasing more games then sony or microsoft this year & the big ones are coming so ill hold judgement.
who is actually going? as far as I know this has mostly been a comic book convention with all kinds of things to buy... so Nintendo being their is actually a good move, it gets packed!
"We've been advised by Nintendo
that it has "nothing to announce at
this time" regarding this rumour.
You can take that to mean whatever
you want, but that's the line we've
been given."
It means it is a RUMOUR and not official yet.... lol
@ricklongo you can watch almost everything for free on the internet.. you don't need to buy a new tv just to watch a show lol but idk that's just me I guess
someone had mentioned on youtube, the 3ds has red flames = summer, and the Wii U version has blue flames = winter... did they have this planned all along? lol
how is it that you guys know the game drops to 30fps and not even have a direct video or know if it's 720p/1080p?, other sites are reporting that it stays locked at 60fps.
I read in an IGN article that MK8 is locked at 60fps even during split screen gameplay, as for the gamepad features, I will wait until it comes out, I'm sure we don't have all the info yet right?.. but dammm does this look beautiful. http://a.pomf.se/elispp.gif
@Senario Same here, I was going to buy this game but I'm gonna wait to see what they are doing with the Wii U version, right now I'm thinking of saving up to build my first PC.. since my laptop isn't cutting it for me anymore.
has anybody even thought that maybe they delayed the game so they can have more time to work on the gamepad features or getting things right with the Wii U?? it's funny because when a game gets released half assed people complain why did they release it like that... but when they delay to make improvements people still complain... smh..
@Tsuzura It would be amazing if they did.. I would honestly start over if they brought it to the Wii U... but if they do end up bringing it to the west for PC then ill just stick to the Japanese version, I have toooo much time put into that game lol...
correct me if I'm wrong but the Wii U is actually doing better in sales then the ps3 and xbox360 had during the same timeline.... the only bad is the expectations... people on here who bash others for having a positive view on things really need to take that pole out their donkey.
PC + Wii U here.... PC will have everything I need including the xbone "exclusives"... the Wii U will provide a different way of gaming with the increadible games coming next year.
@Kirk I don't understand why you keep ignoring the fact that these videos are being upscaled.... if you look at this trailer https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=x0O9KwMZ7_8 (which is the resolution you will be playing it on the 3DS) you will see the difference when it isn't being upscaled or zoomed in.
@Kirk are you serious? you do realize this is for the 3DS right? check this video out in 720p https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ccZqvTqWpDE or the ending of this nintendo direct, your telling me this isn't good graphics for the 3DS? and these video are being upscaled. it will look a lot better in it's native resolution.
I'm definitely ready buy the Wii U and this might be my first game to go along with it, I was planning on waiting a little longer but this game seems like it will be fun.. watching gameplay on normal mode only gets me excited to know just how hard the game will be on higher levels like hard or very hard..
