@RCMADIAX I've enjoyed your games a lot, nice easy to pick-up games. Honestly have to say Poker Dice Solitaire and Blok Drop U are some of the more addictive games I've grabbed from the eShop. I know you get a lot of salty individuals talking smack but I think the fact that you press on and continue to develop and grow as a designer is really telling to you as a person. Keep up the great work and push on!
There's entertainment in enjoying something horrible. I don't think my expectations can be any lower in fact. So worst game on the eshop here I come! Also I have an idea..."eShop remix"
Wasn't mk8 released later in the week? So these percentages are worthless watch_dogs had a full week to rake in sales while mk8 only had a partial week.
Well the PS4 version runs at 30fps and is upscaled from 720p so it shouldn't be hard for the Wii U to meet or beat that. If UBIsoft doesn't accoplish this there just tired, lazy, or both.
@ACK
Couldn't agree more. It's very disappointing they don't have the Wii U (or any other console) as a 100%. Seems like a bad look more then anything. But daaayyum the game looks incredible. Anyone is interested in this title should write the devs and demand transparency for console releases.
@Tasuki They have a ton of money in there warchest, they just bought at mysterious company for 100mil. Just because sales are down doesn't mean that don't have money to burn
@Redxzero Marginalized groups deserve to be in more games especially life sims like this one. Ignoring said groups contributes to a lack of dialogue and understanding of there experiences irl.
@midnafanboy It's a life simulator that removed aspects of my life style, yes I care. Why? Because I think the game looks incredible and was really excited about it. It's ok to feel things and talk about it but maybe that's to much for some people which is also ok. Hope they fix this because I won't be buying until then.
@pariah164 It's dialogue about an issue that many are effected by irl and yes it has touched a nerve, rightfully so. Your not helping the matter by telling people to shut up.
Let's just ignore everything outside of hetrosexual partnerships? This isn't the answer Nintendo. There could have been a creative way to work around this and still give a nod to those of us who aren't so hetronormative. Probably not going to get this game now.
I for one know nothing about game development, with that said I love the concept and the sketches so far. Keep up the great work! There are only 2 kinds of people in the world dreamers and haters.
I'll gladly pay money not to monkey around with inconsistent emulation. It really can disrupt the whole experience and does more often then not. But if someone is poor and can't afford to buy games I guess it's better then nothing.
$57.57 US dollars including shipping, very tempting. Local Gamestop (sells opened box) copies for $59 + tax. I need to stop collecting Wii games this is getting expensive. Does anybody know if there charging tax?
Really can't stand voice chat, maybe I need to try it more. But I think it's a love it or hate it sorta thing. Tried it with AC4, what I heard was a bunch of teenagers making noises and people speaking languages I couldn't comprehend.
I really need to play both these games again. I remember the music being so horrible on the genesis version me and my friends would turn it all the way down and put the radio on but the graphics/animation and game play were allot better(I thought as a kid). I need to revisit to be sure since I didn't really own either but rented them multiply times. Forgot about these games.
Great game, I've been playing since it released. I have a question as a new 3ds owner. I want to buy this game but don't usually buy digital. What is the most secure way to go as far as SD cards, how big and what brand seems best? Can't wait to download the full version.
It's all about spin from PR firms it didn't matter as much 15 years ago because there weren't as many companies and platforms in the gaming world. The console business is still a shrinking piece of the pie. I just hope the dirty PR MS and Sony are deploying gets nintendo to play dirty and take the gloves off. Slow and steady wins the race but Nintendo needs to bust out the (snes) rocket launchers.
Actually doesn't surprise me because Japan isn't exactly DK country, sorry for the pun. But it's consistently twice as successful in numbers as a franchise in NA then Japan. Why wasn't this mentioned in your article, pretty important fact to just leave out. An example of this DK returns sales to date; NA 3.02m, Eur 1.62m, Japan 1.03m, Other regions 0.43m.
It's news because it's interesting and a great idea.
Theoretically if you decided to create a game and it was a creative and potentially really fun I wouldn't poop on your parade and call you a fraud for being a determined dreamer. Even if I knew you were that negative upset man from nintendolife.com.
I support ideas and projects that are cool. It doesn't matter what platform it's on indie, 3rd party, or AAA.
Stop tearing people down and go on a walk or something.
@AlbertoC good point. I agree, there testing the waters and trying new things. It's how you grow. Moving in the right direction toward new paths, excited about these new titles.
Great direct, I'm pumped. Bayonetta 2, Mario Kart 8, Smash bros U all pre-ordered. I think I need to get a second job for this upcoming 3ds library gaawddd looks incredible.
Bring it I'll contribute $100 to them if they show me some ideas and plans. I like there attitude it's what the Wii U needs. Whatchha got AE? bash some heads write some code, lets do this!
Well I just picked up Wario Land Shake it! and Smoove moves. What an under rated franchise, this interview makes we want to check the rest of the wario games I missed.
Maybe this has already been said but how many people bought just dance Wii for there Wii U because the Wii version was cheaper(over the holidays)? That's what my girlfriend did and I'm pretty sure most people don't care about HD just dance. So yeah allot of those just dance sales are most likely smart Wii U owners.

@navonod18 see @theblackdragon 's response that's why allot of us Nintendo fans are angry by this move.
Re: Nintendo Provides Some Context to 2013's Tomodachi Life Same-Sex Marriage Controversy
@navonod18 Not shocked or suprised but still disappointed that a wacky life simulator game is still sticking to the same old heteronormative BS.

Re: New and Sealed Xenoblade Chronicles Copies Available in North America

So you have the ability to play Xenoblade in HD, interesting. So it not being in HD isn't software limitations and is purely hardware? Very intrigued.

Re: New and Sealed Xenoblade Chronicles Copies Available in North America
@AdanVC
No it won't be, Nintendo was very smart building all this hype with xenoblade.
Who ever thought up this marketing tactic up needs to take over the helm of marketing the Wii U like yesterday.

Re: CastleStorm's First DLC Expansion, Outcast to Savior, Assaults the Wii U eShop This Week
Been loving castle storm, this will definitely help keep it fresh for many many more months. Zen studios is doing a great job with these eShop titles.
I have played a few of the other versions and must say the Wii U version seems more fluid and makes the game pad really shine. To me it's the best.
