I already bought it on Wii U eShop. When will Nintendo allow cross buy, like any digital game shop (iOS, Android, PC, PSN, ...) ? Hope this will be done with Virtual Console for Switch.
@shani Bloodborne reminds me the games like Super Ghouls'n Ghosts or Mr Nutz: the ennemies always appear in the same place when you restart the level, so you learn their positions and know the world more and more without any map.
@firstnesfan Hi. I didn't play Xenoblade U yet. I think of getting it this year, but I have also to play The Witcher III on PS4 and A Link Between World on my 3DS. I started Xenoblade Chronicles on Wii two years ago but didn't play more than 3 hours. About Xenoblade U, the character design seems really awful, isn't it?
@amiiboacid Never play any Darksouls. I tried Demon souls 5 hours but I am still in the first level.
@shani The first hours of Bloodborne are really hard. But Victorian London is beautiful. What pushes me to continue is that I started to know how to deal with the foes. I know when I have to dodge to kill them in the back. The first time you meet a monster, it is hard to kill it, it scares you. After some training, you understand its pattern, and now you are near to laugh in front of him. You feel like you are the master of the game ... Until the first boss. So big, so monstrous, the music is played only in front of a boss, and makes the moment so epic. And you die. Restart and die... And start ... And die again ... Sometime it remains only one hit or two to kill the boss, but one error and you die again. The moment is so stressful, so intense when you know that you are near to die, but the boss is also ... You think you will die again, but not that time. That time, you killed the boss ! You succeeded! You exult. You don't believe what happens. You feel relieved. 5 to 10 hours to kill just the first boss... Then you see that the world of the game is bigger than it seems, and that you have to go.
Bloodborne is really something. It has its own game concept, its own atmosphere and universe. It is really beautiful despite the fact that it is not technically the best graphic engine.
I spent more time in 2015 with Bloodborne than with any game on Wii U.
No OOT for me. I stay with the 3DS version. About Fire Emblem and Advance Wars 2, I still have the other Fire Emblem and the first Advance Wars to launch on 3DS and Wii U VC.
Sorry, I already bought it last week-end on the PSN. I own the 3DS, the Wii U, the PS Vita, and the PS4. Steamworld Dig is in cross-buy on PS4 and PS Vita, something Nintendo doesn't propose.
This discussion about copyright or patent is curious. Argonaut doesn't exist anymore. If a company wants to produce today a new game using the Super FX, who should they pay to have the license?
Hey, Nintendo fans, don't blame EA like that. This kind of behaviour is so childish.
I admit that the sentences coming from EA in this article are not pleasant, but this is not a reason for us to say that EA games are bad. Dead Space 1 and 2 are one the my preferred games in my gamer history.
So rather than being furious against EA, I am sad that they don't want to develop for Wii U.
I don't understand these prices. I bought recently a used Xenoblade for 35€ or something, through eBay. I live in France, and we can metroid prime easily here for 15€ to 20€.
I am not agree with this attitude. For me this is a little arrogant when saying that you don't need anyone to create something great.
Good ideas in video games don't come exclusively from Nintendo. It is good to see what other do and invent, to have external influence from other and mix it with our own ideas. In example, cross buy is a really great concept, used by Apple, Android, Steam, Sony, ... Why can't I buy a VC game on my 3ds and play it on my Wii U?
I own a Wii U, but, sorry to say that, I don't enjoy it anymore since Christmas. Since January I discovered Walking Dead, Ninokuni, Uncharted 3 on my ps3, and The Last of Us seems incredible. What did I played on Wii U since Christmas? Oh yes, Super Metroid. Does this game really need a 350€ console to be played?
I like Nintendo. I bought all their console since the SNES, but I am still waiting for the announcement of a big hit for my Wii U, and didn't see one during this E3. Mario Kart? Mario 3D? Wind waker HD? Donkey Kong? I already heard about these names for 20 years.
@iPlayNintendo I already read the article, and I just read it again. Sorry, but this not clear in the article. It explains how most of people know Altered beast, e.g. as bundled with the Genesis. But it does not explicitely say that the 3D version is based on the Genesis.
I would like to use this software, also DS10, with midi to synchronize the clock with my DAW. But I think there is no way to do this. Shame. So I would not buy it. I have already Nano Studio on my phone to write some scratch on the go.

That is Bloodborne.

Re: YouTube Update Spruces Up Wii U App
I prefer to use Youtube app of my Sony Bravia TV. The performance and video render are better.

Re: Nintendo To Market Mario Kart 8 Through The End Of The Year
Nintendo doesn't have any other choice than marketing MK8 heavily to sell Wii U, until SSMB.
Re: Nintendo Download: 24th April (Europe)
@Grumblevolcano Snes9x for Wii can emulate Yoshi's Island. So why Nintendo can't?

But deKay answers me indirectly.
Re: First Impressions: 3D Altered Beast
Is it a conversion of the arcade version or of the Genesis version?
