I want a RPG for my Wii U at launch, but I will probably be better off taking a wait and see approach with this and see if they release the whole trilogy for the Wii U. I still may get it though depending on reviews I see...
Ehh its OK I guess. I put down that I'm not really sure. I would of thought they would of shown some Ninja Gaiden 3 somewhere seeing as Nintendo is publishing it, but I guess they tried to keep it with an Everyone rating.
Not surprised in the least seeing as there isn't much for the 3DS coming out at the end of the year except Paper Mario and Professor Layton. Nintendo is going to be relying on older games like Mario Kart 7, NSMB2, and SM3DL to bolster 3DS sales for the holidays. Its sad how the Wii has died the way it has and also plays a factor in it as well. Nintendo had better hope the Wii U flies of the shelves and not end up like the 3DS did at its start.......
This is not good for the Nintendo or Activision if they can't get the games running on 1080p on their "HD" console, but graphics aren't everything I suppose.
I also can see where PETA is coming from, but I don't think Pokemon is the cause of humans being cruel to animals. It has probably been going on since the dawn of man. That first video you unlock is pretty sad and disturbing, but is not surprising in the least.
Looking at the screenshots of the train I first thought this was going to be a 'new' Pokemon game spinoff, but to see it as an actual train is kinda neat and different.
While I like the first game, I never really spent the time to finish it, and the fact I haven't yet played the others, I just don't see myself purchasing this. I'm glad to see it got a good review though.
I would love to see some screenshots of what the game looked like before it was cancelled, though it is hard to say how far in development the game was in though...
@XCWarrior Actually the PS3 will play almost every Playstation 1 game. Now Playstation 2 games you have to have one of the really early systems that have the Emotion Engine chip in it I believe......
It would be cool to see Nintendo collaborate with Square-Enix and get some great RPGs on the Wii U. Oh and maybe a good Pokemon RPG would be awesome as well for the Wii U.
@Steveovig Its funny you say that about the games but at least there is plenty of variety with 23 games. Heck the N64 launched in the US with only 2 games, granted one of them is Super Mario 64 but still.........
Getting NSMBU with my system and getting ZombiU shortly after. May get Ninja Gaiden 3, Tekken Tag Tournament 2, COD BO 2 during launch. Also interested in Rayman Legends, Pikmin 3, Game & Wario, and Aliens: Colonial Marines when they come out later.
I would rather Nintendo just give the Wii U the ability to play Gamecube discs like they had done for the Wii. Also kinda off topic, but it would be nice if the Wii U could play regular DVDs as well!
Well I had to settle for a Basic Wii U at gamestop.com, as I waited to long to pre-order the Deluxe Wii U. sigh oh well, at least I know I am getting one launch week (hopefully it ships fast). Note if you are still looking at getting one, you will probably have to go on GameStop.com because the GameStop stores in my area were no longer taking preorders on any Wii U systems.
Gotta say when I seen Wipeout 3 listed I was thinking it was going to be the game released by Psygnosis on the PS1 back in 1999, but remembered that the company is now defunct by Sony.......
I only watched the American Conference (since I live in America) so I can only speak on it. I believe the system will sell great for the holiday season, and I need to pre-order mine (Premium Version). I only think they should of shown some Pikmin 3, and less of the TV thing, that was yawn inspiring...
I know some of you guys are growing tired of the NSMB series but I think NSMBU looks promising (which is the game I am going to get at launch) and I actually liked NSMB2.
Ahh, feels good reliving this great game. Used to play this all the time as a lad at my grandparents house during the summers, while my mom worked. Now we need Kirby's Dream Land 2, Pokemon Red/Blue and some others.....
I had one of those screen magnifiers, and if i remember right it had a light on it as well...... Never had the added speakers and "enhanced" buttons though LOL...!
On the topic of OoT3D, that was the reason of my purchase of the 3DS in May and not waiting to buy it.... It is funny Nintendo has a way of getting me to buy multiple copies of games. I own OoT on my N64, Wii VC, GC LoZ Collection, and now on the 3DS. I just could not pass up on owning one of the best games EVER on a PORTABLE system!
I also believe after the holiday season, is when a lot more games will be announced. I think developers are waiting to see how the 3DS does during Christmas.
I think Nintendo needs to release more quality and quantity Virtual Console games on the 3DS, the only reason why I bought a Wii was for the Virtual Console so I did not have to dig in my basement if I wanted to play Donkey Kong Country or Sonic 2. I just wish Nintendo would pick up the pace a little bit with the 3DS VC... Release Pokemon Red and Blue, and Super Mario Land 2 already.... Also where is the Game Gear games....?
Well people are freaking out as it makes the system less portable, and I do not see it fitting in my pocket. Also people see it as Nintendo admitting that they rushed the system and are using the circle pad as a fix. I do not think it is all bad and all, but I do hope it is not required to have one down the road.
As for the topic of a 3DS redesign, I believe it is way to early for Nintendo to be releasing one. That would only piss off everyone that already spent the money on one, especially people who payed $250 for it as I did. Like others have stated the redesign is coming but not for another year or two (hopefully) !
While it is cool that he apologized I think Nintendo needs to work on getting more developers to buy into the 3DS. I know I am excited about the free games (but they should just announce all of them already!) and such but the 3DS is gonna need a lot more great software to compete with the Vita. I mean the 3DS library is pretty shallow right now....
I just want to know when in the hell is the Sega Game Gear and the Turbo Grafx 16 are going to be on the Virtual Console, so we do not have to wait Nintendo to release some more games!

Re: Rumour: Wii U Call of Duty: Black Ops 2 Not Running Natively At 1080p?

Re: Ken's Rage Cannot Be Contained By PS3 And 360 Alone, Wii U Version Confirmed
Never heard of it either and can't say im excited by looking at the screenshots either, but anyways it is good to see the Wii U getting more support.

Re: Pokémon Black and White 2 Designed for Dedicated Trainers
Can't wait to pick this game up. Been a fan of Pokemon since I got the Red version for Christmas in 1998.

Re: Sonic Racing Transformed Frame Rate Issues Have Been Solved
I'll just wait until I see some reviews of the Wii U version before I decide to buy. Even if it is just 40 dollars.

Re: Sony: Wii U Offering "Something That Vita and PS3 can do Quite Easily"
Sony really needs a price drop on the Vita IMO. Especially if they are going to go this route........
Re: Nintendo Unveils 3DS XL Circle Pad Pro
Well, I'm glad that Nintendo offers this for the users that may want it to play MGS3D on the 3DSXL, but I think I will just stay away from it.
