Re: Nintendo Has "Great Games" But Is Facing A "Structural Problem", According To Industry Analysts

Yellowgerbil

@jmax While it is true that the Wii U's gamepad has not been utilised to the extent it could be; we have no idea what they could have in store for us. The games you have mentioned are all typical nintendo games that would have been hard or even impossible to come up with new ways. Now you could argue that they could have been designed differently to use it better, but the games are great typical Nintendo games that would need to be changed vastly to accommodate it.
Some games on the Wii hardly used the motion controls; Smash Bros, Super Mario Galaxy 1/2 and a lot of the other 2D games. Do you remember Donkey Kong country returns; many people did not like it when they added the motion controls to the game, it didn't break it exactly but they just tried to force it on there without much thought. Someone is going to break the barrier at some point (just look at Spin the bottle) and then; I hope it will become clear to the others.

Re: Review: Doodle Jump Adventures (3DS)

I cannot buy 3D world due to me living in the UK but I think that I might download a link between worlds tonight or buy it physically on Saturday.
Edge will soon be on my Wii U and also TokiTori which I did not have a chance to purchase last week unfortunately, it will also be the time to get the Pikmin dlc which I have gone without.
I have a good weekend ahead of me!

Re: Nintendo Set To End Production of the Wii

Yellowgerbil

I am really sad to see it go, I had so much fun and clocked over a thousand hours on it... Oh well it is moving out of the living room to my room so I don't think this is the end of mine.
Truly one of my favourite consoles that had so many amazing games on it, may it go down in history as THE game changer of decades.

Re: Review: Rayman Legends (Wii U)

The Wii U version is the best version thanks to murphy and the Miiverse integration. Going to get this on my brothers birthday, a few days after it is released, we loved origins.

Re: Reaction: Our Thoughts on Nintendo Direct - 17th May

Yellowgerbil

I don't see why people are complaining, Nintendo is clearing some of their older announced titles out the way so that we have a cleaner slate for E3 announcements. The reason that they put a few sega games is so that we feel it was not all old content and the Lost World announcement was so that we can hype it for E3.

Re: Ubisoft Confident Its Titles Will Attract Gamers To Wii U

Yellowgerbil

Ubisoft has won me back around after that ordeal in February and they appear to really be trying to help Nintendo. EA on the other hand has completely lost me because of their little hissy fit over Origin (if that is the problem) but they are also blaming the Wii U's sales of Mass Effect 3 and Fifa 14. Now I loved Mass Effect 3 on Wii U, but many people passed because of the Trilogy only a bit more expensive on other platforms. Regarding Fifa on the other hand... it was 12 with gamepad support. I am really pleased with Ubisoft though because they kept their promise to Nintendo.

Re: Feature: Nintendo Direct on 17th May - The Big Summary

Yellowgerbil

To be honest I kind of wished that the extra character would have been Polterpup, but no matter, I really like Nabbit and our little ghost dog might appear somewhere else in the game. The direct satisfied me as I was worried that some of these titles might take up a bit of E3, now we basically have a clean slate to get new information on the new games and a couple of others like Yoshi's yarn. I think Ninty may have a few surprises up their sleeve...

Re: Miiverse: Super Metroid - Too Taxing For Today's Gamers?

Yellowgerbil

Haven't got this yet but I have beaten the first metroid and just released the metroids in fusion. Toki Tori 2 is hard but I am making it my goal not to search up the answers, been successful so far. I am a experienced newish gamer at 14 but I do figure answers out by myself so you can be glad there are quite a lot of 'noobs' who still try to do stuff on their own.
