I will not buy this game unless their online components are there which so far they sound lacking.
Also if Nintendo wanted to have multiplayer FPS/TPS type game it just seems soo obvious to make a new metroid with a COD level online experience, just saying! If nintendo could give us fans that online experience we have been craving, WITH GD VOICE CHAT, I think make fans would be exstatic. Plus you could easily make a FPS type game on par with the creativity of splatoon by utilizing all of the functions of samus and having maps that incorporate this like the morph ball for example.
Don't get me wrong I am excited for splatoon but I feel the lack of voice chat is deadly and also I am skeptical other annoyances like that might pop their heads out.
Lack of chat unfortunately probably means lack of my purchase, I can't keep supporting this trend. All I know is hero's of ruin came out for 3ds a couple years ago and it had great voice chat on 3ds! You mean to tell me voice chat on Wii u isn't cutting it, get out of here with that crap.
B- .. Honestly I love my WiiU and don't think it deserves a C- . It has some awesome games most of what fans want mario kart, smash bros, 2d mario, 3d mario, pikmin, monster hunter and more.
I think the best thing nintendo could do is go towards the competitive nature of gamers. Give people voice chat, show hardcore games how competitive you can be in mario kart and smash bros. I know smash bros has voice chat but it looks like its only with friends and after matches. I know these games are great local multiplayer but most people I talk to who have other consoles cannot fathom lack of online support with nintendo sometimes.
Lastly, if they come out with a metroid they get an A+. Plus they could add that generic first person shooter online battles that soo many gamers love with awesome mechanics like morph ball, people will buy this I think.
Love metroid, and personally have thought it's an more than perfect outlet for Nintendo to make a first person multiplayer out of, imagine capture the flag with morph ball
@LastLife yes I did notice that, after thinking about it, maybe they're trying to balanced the game to be more race oriented. The only reason I thought this was the reason they added the new item that can block the blue shell, maybe less downtime when fallen is geared towards the same idea. Just a thought.
This game is well worth the money. I paid 10 bucks and its just as polished as a title like trine that was 20 for a while but seems to have a lot more replay value. I have been loving the game, it's just a great idea, if you like castle defense games but get bored of them easily then this is your game for its that extra push to keep things interesting. My two gripes.
1) Only supports pro controller for multiplayer, cant tell you how much that sucks. Plus they are not taking advantage of one of WiiU's biggest advantages, the fricken wiimote!
2) I find it a pain saving your castle each time you customize it. They should have made the saving process a little more sleak and also explain the castle building process more early on in the game.
@TheLilK98 I agree people think Nintendo caters to children. I think its a huge misconception and I think anyone who bases it off the fact Nintendo doesnt get a lot of third party support or doesn't have games for "CORE" gamers is extremely ignorant.
@TheLilK98 your right it was kind ood long soo I didn't read it all at first, at first, he replied to me about Nintendo catering to children as his own opinion and that hit a nerve
@hcfwesker I'm 27obviously not a kid have a family am a mature responsible adult, and I completely disagree. like finelerv I agree ppl THINK Nintendo caters to children but I have a feeling a lot of kids might be pretty challenged or too challenged by new super Mario challenges, pikmin, any metroid, any Zelda, wonderful 101, monster hunter the list goes on. And btw core gamer is the dumbest term ever, what does it mean? Explain to me.
They want to go to Sony before nintendo even though most people who even know the original are nintendo fans. Just don't understand how Sony is more of a prime demographic than nintendo fans, I just dont understand?
Between the gamepad for inventory and miiverse to share creations do you people realize how awesome minecraft would be on wiiu?!?! huh do you?!?!?!?!?!??!?!?!
You can not beat buying this game for ten bucks, it has tons of modes and is a great challange. The first night me and some friends had a late night glued to the tv tearing up laughing for some reason at crouch jet packing! Lol good times
It seems a lot of people prefer more rpg like titles on the portable, and there are a ton released for the 3ds, but I personally think more in depth games like this are so much better on a home console. I have very fond memories of lounging on my couch gules to the t.v. playing mario rpg, paper mario and link to the past. Idk I think the wiiu needs more games like these, they create such a richer bond then new super mario. I feel the same about animal crossing.
Yeah I think a teaser would have been smart to show, it could have stuck in peoples minds who were kind of unsure about xbox and didnt care for playstation.
I don't really have money to spend on games without seeing some reviews, but as long as this game doesn't consistantly get scored a 8 or below, I will most definitely buy it.
I think it is important to point out that the amount of gamers have risen as well. Aruna the last time your mom has played halo with you. I don't know about younger generations , but I've never seen my mom play a video game in my entire life basically until angry birds. lol the markets bigger, there's more money to be made. The towns big enough for.more than one sheriff.
@Sony_70 are you referring to touch screens or tethering a handheld device to another system with barely any latency? This is meant to be a smart ass remark btw.
maybe they should have called it something else from the get go like "nintendo cloud", or " Nintendo meet-up", or idk " NINTENDO PLAZA" thats a good one. Idk when I heard wara wara plaza for the first time I thought it was just another silly nintendo name, and I have never used it in a sentence until now.
I used to love hot shot golf until I played mario golf for game cube, it was so fantastic, but please nintendo voice chat, you know how pissed it makes me that I have to f'ing skype with "friends"!!!!!!! just to be able to talk. What is the god damn point of playing online with my friends if I cant talk to them, come on, break the god damn mold all ready!
