@The_Dude_Abides lol yeah that's a great business plan right there. Undermine your own hardware sales by releasing games on an unaffiliated companies program.
I'm hoping they don't just give up on Wii U. Cuz it has far more potential for a life span than PS4 and Xbone do at the moment, especially how lackluster their big releases have been (titanfall, destiney, evolve, killzone order 1886...all shooter games...go figure)
I voted Eternal Darkness because I already own GX and if it were to get remastered I'd want to see it on Wii U...That and Twilight Princess sucks and has always sucked
I don't know if any of you have been to their website, but the Playtonic Logo looks very similar to the old school Rare logo. Also news has it that David Wise stopped by the studio recently...
Nintendo's online presence could only improve by taking a note out of steam's book. Glad to see Sakurai has considered it, hopefully Nintendo will implement more "PC" mechanics to edge ahead of PS4/Xbone and PC's
Lol why are people whining about GWAPHIX? This game would only look amazing if it was released back in the PS2 era, so who cares if the textures aren't as good looking as the already subpar looking Wii version? The game is still going to be awesome, and that's what matters
Does anybody care about Ubisoft? Other than Rayman (which imo feels at home on Nintendo consoles) and Assassin's Creed (a series I've never played nor had any interest to due so) I couldn't name another one of their titles
I think making the Shulk Amiibo equivalent to streetpass is a huge misstep though. It doesn't really incentivize me to go out and buy one, especially considering how rare they are
REMAKE METAL GEAR 1 AND 2! Not Solid, the ones on NES that nobody played because they were terrible.
If Nintendo could strike up a deal for 2 exclusive 3DS/Wii U metal gear games with Konami it would sell like madness! Besides, I think Kojima owes Nintendo for including Snake in SSBB
Nintendo really needs to get their act together on this front. I mean, registering an entire channel if they do 100% nintendo videos? Nobody does that, or will do that. And if you've done tons of nintendo videos you have to register them all 1 at a time. It's just silly.
Nintendo should just be happy they're getting free advertising
I got my Fox and DK, as it stands I'm alright with those two.
If MP 10 turns out to be a good game, I'll probably pick up the Super Mario Bros Luigi one, and I'll be picking up Ike and possibly Lucina for Code Name S.T.E.A.M
I'll be picking up the new one for Xenoblade (which I never played) and improved controls for MH4 (I wanted to upgrade to XL anyways, so might as well go for the new one).
Here's a question for you: Should we care about Mario Party 10?
@Quorthon My friend owns an Xbone, trust me those aren't games worth playing.
Online: Free > $60...Seems pretty cut and dry to me. Also, never said it was "Unhackable" I implied that with their subscription revenue they could set up a decent security system (we all know how Sony handles stuff like that).
But yeah bro, your opinion is probably right cuz you post more and preface all your comments with insulting adjectives
@WingedSnagret yawn Name 3 games worth playing exclusive to PS4 and/or Xbone.
Also Nintendo knows it's fans don't come to them for Multiplayer/online experience (however a multi-player Zelda/Donkey Kong/Mario game is supposed to work I'm not 100% sure), unless we're talking about Mario Kart, Super Smash Bros, Star Fox, F-Zero, Kirby Deluxe etc, they come for gameplay, games that are complete at release (DLC, if any, comes much later), and a unique experience unavailable anywhere else.
But yeah, keep running with the lame 3rd party argument, cuz consumers come rushing in droves to play Call of Duty Wii U edition, Assassins Creed, or Madden. Big time sellers obv.
And "outdated" = what? GRAPHIX? Taking a look at PS3 - 4 and 360 - 1, it's pretty clear that GRAPHIX really aren't going anywhere that fast at this point anyways, so why bother wasting time on each individual bristle on Mario's moustache and perfecting the felt texture of his overalls instead of making a solid game? If anything, "Next Gen" consoles have only proven how much of a bust "Next Gen" really is. Know how I can tell? Because, unlike Nintendo and every gaming generation before it, "Last Gen" is still widely supported and will be for several years.
Also:
Free Online >>>> Premium Online (I already pay for an internet connection, why should I pay for your crappy PS/XB service where I can get my account hacked and my personal info stolen?)
@Prof_Clayton If you enjoy metroidvania, you'll enjoy this game. The combat is simple yet complex, the level design is fantastic, I think this game has a great senes of humor, it's not super long, but you definitely get what you payed for.
I think everybody who's considering giving this one a go should jump i head first and never look back. It's as good as they say
@R_Champ I think people (myself included) prefer to use a controller (which is accessible via PC/MAC anyways). But as of this generation there really isn't one, save the Sony exclusives.
I'm still trying to figure out any reason to buy a PS4/Xbone over a PS3/360 being that they have all the same new games but with slightly better graphics.
As Nintendo Fans/Hardcore/Retro Gamers, I think every regular poster to this website would say: "$350+ for an entertainment system with updated graphics? Big deal, the Wii U is a video game console with Backwards Compatibility and GAMES"
I wanna know what they're gonna do in other games first
But that said I'll probably be picking up DK, Zelda (if compatible with Hyrule Warriors) and maybe the rest of my team ie: Ness, Dedede, Lucario and Samus (if they release a figure in a pose that doesn't look so stupid).
Does anybody know if there's going to be a Megaman amiibo? If so I have my fingers crossed for an HD remake of the OG Megaman series

I used to love this show as a kid, I had a VHS of it.
To this day, I've never seen anyone laugh harder at anything than when I first showed my cousin this song: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=er4zU20y8kg
Still a favorite childhood memory of mine

Color me intrigued.
Re: Saints Row Design Director Was Working On An Open-World Wii U Game
@schizor In this context, I think a sandbox city ala Saint's Row/GTA/Infamous/Prototype would be the case.
A bit of a shame, cuz I liked SR1 (not as much as SR2), even if it was a GTA clone. Wii U could use a game like that (watchdogs not withstanding).
