@Kaze_Memaryu Yeah, I didn't mind the whole "making Samus a real person" thing at all, it was the gameplay that made the whole game seem like a chore. I'd like to give it another chance still. You can get it for basically free these days
I want this. Actually I'd prefer more exploration-based approach and calm atmosphere. I don't know a single thing about the original so I'm clueless for that matter
I have nothing against either one but I think they are both done with the U by now. In my wildest dreams EA would announce Dead Space Trilogy Remastered for Wii U and Ubisoft would bring some polished and properly optimized ports that take advantage of the hardware.
Both have done reasonably good job on U, I think. Most Wanted U is polished enough to be a first party product, ME3 was great and I've played like 5-6 Ubisoft titles and they've been varying in quality but mostly great.
@Goginho I also think so. Obviously the resolution is quite a bit lower but the overall style is much more appealing. Those Sheik pics are awesome on 3DS.
Slightly reminds me of Red Steel 2 which is awesome. It's a pity they won't reach their target unless something miraculous happens. I would really want to see this happen!
Looks neat. Great job. Why is the Wii U gamepad so big? I love it but it is a bit clunky although comfortable. Just... I mean this thing holds a complete console inside and its still quite compact. Yeah the gamepad screen is big but it COULD be more "sexy". At least one old man would be happy if you know what I mean.
A little pause wouldn't bring the world to an end. Maybe even try something else. Something really far out! Maybe even a game without Mario! I'm crazy I know but that could really work...
No, I can't reach the necessary level of sarcasm right now.
The best way to fight this problem IMO is to make superior products instead of endless lawsuits that lead nowhere. No way these cheap clones can make it in the market unless the chinese really know nothing about gaming which might be the case, I wouldn't know really.
Probably just AC4. It's awesome and so much better than AC3. Maybe also some agonizing pain that is getting better times in AiRace Speed. I love that game but god do I hate that game.
Wanted to see some gameplay so watched a video on youtube. That was hilarious in a painful way. The textures looked like they were from '97 and the animations and effects.... yeah. Can't see why they bother.
I consider this the best Zelda ever made. It got a lot of hate when it came out and I do understand some of it but still don't agree. One of the highlights of my gaming "career" for sure To each one's own I guess.
It's sad to realize yet again that these games don't really interest me that much. I will probably need to get excited about some of them until PS4 gets a price drop and some interesting games. I still haven't bought 3D world or W101 so maybe the backlog will keep me busy.
Still looking forward to this and I don't care about graphics but it's pretty obvious they had to tone it down. The first footage we got was a lot darker and shiny whereas this is more in the vein of GTA. Still, I hope this will be good and sell well.
Oh, I didn't even know. It would be nice to experience this via VC some day. Also I think RE2 was on N64 as well. Not sure if worth playing but as a curiosity I might check these forgotten gems out
It seems that many games today include a ton of history or fictional lore. But the thing is, I really can't bother to read it all AC3 was my first Assassin's creed and I was overwhelmed by the amount of data. Mass effect too. Brief pieces of info is cool `a la Metroid Prime but walls of text is just too much. Thankfully it's usually optional to read em all. I just wonder who writes and/or gathers all that stuff.
I guess many publishers are now on hiatus when it comes to Wii U. They wait and see if Smash bros. and Mario Kart will boost the sales and if that happens they will hop onboard again. The install base of PS3 and X360 combined is over 160 million and current gen Sony/Xbone about 10 million. They just don't need the 6 million Wii U gamers now :/
I would like to see more stuff filling the void between small indie (puzzle) games and blockbusters. Like budget games with more content and stories. This indie flood is great and all but hardly offers memorable must-have titles. More like play-and-forget. There are exceptions of course but I've already seen enough platformers with unique art styles. Not trying to sound too harsh, just my two cents
Cool. Stick it to the man looks quite creepy I'm still more excited about that survival horror game Forgotten Memories but I have no idea when it's going to arrive. Psychoz Interactive still has no news about that.
I had some fun once with the DS version of some GH. The extra peripheral was neat. I prefer playing a real one though. Anyways, it's kind of sad to see things shutting down.
Well, there is nothing Nintendo can do about it if this guy wants to do the whole game. He will not benefit from it but it would be downloadable and playable forever. The internet, you know...
It's cool. Things need to change every now and then and you're bound to disappoint someone every single time you change something. That's just the way it is. I like the new design and I'm one of the original Sonic fans and Knuckles was my favorite in the early 90's Sure he's different now but I don't take that as a personal insult.
I'm still to beat Wind Waker, started playing ZombiU again and also waiting Batman Origins and Lego City Undercover to arrive so I guess I'm good That Cube Tactics could be interesting though.
Oh yeah, Virtue's Last Reward and AiRace Speed are incompleted as well. Both bought from sale and totally worth it although VLR is not quite as captivating as I thought.
I was surprised how addicting this actually was. Behind the extremely clunky controls it's a pretty nice and simple multiplayer experience. I'm usually not interested in multiplayer at all. I have my tablet full of different games with real nice graphics and all but I actually prefer Sub Wars. Playing it with full 3D and earphones makes it pretty atmospheric even
@element187 Well, not literally forced but I need to play certain games and I wouldn't consider Xbone, can't afford a PC so PS4 it is. Games like Alien: Isolation and The Evil Within excite me too much to pass So I'm "forced".
Even at this early point it's pretty safe to say that this generation won't be much of a competition. I just hope Wii U will eventually get plenty of games although I'm pretty much forced to buy PS4 at some point for certain games. It's all good though, let's not be too serious about these things, mmmkay?
Indie support is great and all, I just hope it wouldn't be a synonym for side-scrolling pixel art. More games like Forgotten Memories please! Whenever that's coming out...
I think that is really cool but I'm still completely happy with my red 3DS Original. Still looks brand new and shiny. I've just neglected it a bit during the past year. Wii U, you know...
Nintendo already has platformers in 2d and 3d, racing, beat 'em up, third person adventure/action and strategy. What they need is an fps or open world. And I'm not talking about CoD or GTA here. Do it Nintendo style and people will adore you.

Re: 3DS Enjoys a Major Hardware Boost in Japan as Wii U Sales Also Increase
@andreoni79 I did a quick search and the cheapest I could find was 29,90. I've seen 37,90 and something like that though.
Re: 3DS Enjoys a Major Hardware Boost in Japan as Wii U Sales Also Increase
Sales tax from 5% to 8% in Japan. Here comes Finland.... 24%, boooooom! No wonder I can't buy as many games as I would like to

@PKpunky That would rock skyrocketing amounts of rock! If they did that they would need more staff though and the development would take time.
Re: Nintendo of Europe Confirms Upcoming Game Boy Advance Wii U Virtual Console Releases
The VC prices in general are appalling. I only buy VC games when they're 50% off or something. Metroid Fusion could be great on gamepad.

Re: Nintendo Releases an Extended Gameplay Trailer for Yoshi's New Island
I'm not thrilled about this and I wouldn't pay full price for this. As a budget item or download only this would be just fine.
To me it seems they are targeting the younger demographic and people shouldn't be so harsh and needy
