Isn't crash N the boys the name of one of the bands in Scott Pilgrim?

All the indies are being pushed back into 2014 and it makes alot of sense.

I wonder if its going to be a top down racer like Micro Machines or more like Crusin USA.

@Goginho

Prepare to be disappointed than. Indie dveeloper's will be pushing multiplatform hard and either porting their old PC games.

So while you will have an exclusive game like 90s arcade Racer on Wii U, the dev's will probably port it too PS4 and Xbox One. Vice versa with developers who start with timed exclusives on the other two,

Were going to see a few exclusives but they're probably going to be second party or first party digital games.

Still i'm really happy to see indie games starting to come out on the eshops. I'm hoping we see the same adoption of the PSS and XGS.

@B3ND3R @Senario

I was talking mostly my thoughts on sales. Other than that I agree that its due to preference about what systems it will do well. I've seen it all through the comments with the back and fourth between them.

I'd say Other M's problem was it wasn't sure what it wanted to be. The gameplay and story were at odd's with each other. It had fast paced Team Ninja gameplay that didn't mesh well with the more personal story they were trying to tell. They didn't know if they wanted a Halo, a regular Metroid, or a prime game so they tried to do it all at once and it failed.

@DarkwingLz

which is why Microsoft has been building its first party studios and funding development from second party studios as well. People seem to forget that Sony Worldwide studios didn't get to the size or pedigree till the middle of the last console generation. Microsoft has pretty much turned the ship around with the only real detractor being the pricing,

Beyond that there really aren't any other advantage that at least the Wii U has other than pricing. So for the time being i'm thinking the console wars will shape up as PS4>Xbone>Wii U.

Its going to be Cranky Kong watch.

I kind of agree, I feel that off screen play is great feature but second screen leaves much to be desired about.

I guess U don't find smartglass cumbersome since I ways have a laptop o tablet or my lap or on a small table next to me while I game,

I wish industry guys would be onet about why they don't develop games around the gamepad through. Its just makes the game harder to port to other consoles without breaking or making the game really easy.

@unrandomsam

WIth EA here i'm not sure that's possible.

@Wonder_Mask

Good thing its not the same art style as Rayman right.

@CaviarMeths

where did you read that. In the last couple of years the only Major games of there's that have underpreformed have been ZombiU and Rayman Origins/Legends which says alot.

@Falchion

Ubisoft has been pushing smaller downloadable games for a while now. This year they put out Blood Dragon and that western arcade shooter. Next year they have

Child of Light
Valiant Hearts: the great war
Assassin's Creed Liberation
Trails Fusion

I've never played a Persona game despite owning the soundtrack to P3 & P4. But out of Atlus's big three EO is my favorite so I'll be looking out for this. I'll be getting Persona 4 golden soon too.

Oh snap Christmas Wonderland 3.

Makes me wonder if this is going to be a Wii U game. The Wii U online system and eshop set up seems like it would be the best for this type of game compared to 3DS.

USS Mario reporting for duty.

@Radbot42

The original came out in 2010 for the Sega genesis, so look up videos on youtube.

I'll be going Wii U/Xbox One getting the Wii U next month and a Xbox One around march for Titanfall. Will get a PS4 in 2015.

Jett Rocket II
Retro City Rampage
The Legend of Zelda
Sonic Lost World Demo

Anyone know the name of the art style, I know it got popular with Superbrothers but not sure what to call it. But you know your doing something wrong when achievements are a kickstarter goal

@CountWavula

Dude its a RPG, what were you expecting.

@LUIGITORNADO

Was a joke about how nearly all games pretty much reset themselves.

@MrGawain

SO just like Nintendo games than.

I'm liking the sound of everything I'm hearing. I hope there's a soundtrack out on release.

@Turbo857

It's mostly dependent on the person as well I guess. I'm more of the guy who'd rather do these things at a normal gym. Even doing it in the Video game sense I'd argue that the Wii Fit is a bit too light and I much rather grab Xbox Fitness.

With that said that type of high intensity isn't great and can be intimidating for newbies which is how nintendo should market the system.

As far as your lifetime fitness the Fitbit ecosystem of products does that pretty well. It has open Api's and can tie into other applications even one's for dieting. But if you already have a Wii U than the Wii U is obviously the way to go, Ninteno would be wise to advertise how cheaper the WIi Fiy ecosytem is compared to others.

The only problem I can see Nintendo having is the desgin of the Wii Fit Meter. As small and comprehensive it is, its also the type of product I know many people will forget to grab when going out of the house. I think the braclet style desgin is much better for running since people usually like to workout as light as possible (usually only carrying keys and a device/phone).

@Turbo857

You mean the same Tablets and smartphones that connect to fitnes programs and applications like fitbit, Nike+, runtastic, and other fitness programs that replaced the Wii U.

@The_Fox
If they stopped dreaming, they'd realize how badly the current leadership is doing in the console market.

@ScorpionMG
Aren't Normal Wii U sales usaully Bomba.

The biggest problem is that Wii Fit doesn't improve sales momentum it keeps the momentum going. The orginal Wii Fit took the momentum the orginal console had and extended two times over. In the case of the Wii U there isn't any momentum to carry.

Doesn't a trail only bring momentum if the systems are already in people's hands. It seems that despite them being digital deals Nintendo should have started advertising Wii Sports Club and Wii Fit U being on the Wii U. The avergae consumer despite loving the software doesn't even known these sequels exist and you'd be suprised at how many average people who know of PSN and Xbox Live doesn't even know the Nintendo Network exists.

@CrabGats

Nope because the PS3 and 360 both don't charge for patches. Seems like the studio has a bigger DLC or another game in the works that warrents getting released sooner.

Only a few hours left.

Time to Marathon some anime to get ready for tonight.

Well that was intresting, Would have been better if they didn't go all outrageous and used King of the Hill's mundane humor. Also shouldn't Hank have like a dog pokemon becuase of ladybird and his whole disdai for apparently cutsey stuff like Butterfree.

People on Nintendo fansites like to trump the horn of unique gameplay experinces yet nothing Nintendo has relased this year (or most of the time for that matter) even fall into that category.

Plus for all the complaining about interactive movies what do you think most JRPGS are?

Just finished up the gameboy version of Toki Tori not too long ago. I'm guessing porting and developing for Wii U must be pretty painless after getting used to the hardware. I wonder if were going to see other developers do this as well.

@mariobro4

what's wrong with tails doll. (i'm familiar with it from the comics)

@MrSRArter

What would it effect the Xbox any more than the PS4/360.

@Araknie

Er steambox can't plat my Sony and Microsoft exclusives. Also SCEJ is working with japnese developers and Microsoft founded an Osaka studio which had behind closed doors meeting at tgs.

@ricklongo
Er the DLC won't be out till next year. They're just giving you the option to buy one now.

@6ch6ris6

A season pass is usually a $20 or more Pass that after you pay means your going to get all of the games upcoming content usually at a discount compared to buying it all separate. Most of the times season passes come with a mix of Multiplayer maps and single player content. compltly optional

Eh I bought spent a dollar to get the Batman Inc suit as its my favorite incarnation of the Batsuit that was in Arkham origins.

@ricklongo

You do know that the DLC is being worked on separate from the Actual game right. Going by the Arkham City DLC you probably won't even be playing as Batman.

Looks like clay which is cool but I was hoping for ALBTW Link.

Its all emo up in here.

@Haywired

While that is true I think the models Nintendo is taking with Wii Fit U and Wii Sports club are dfferent enough to succed. It lends to being an evergreen seller and Wii Sports U will probably see population boosts once a new sport is added.

Gotta look hardcore with my spinning tops. Let it Rip.

RIP. He lived a pretty great life and is reposible for some of my favorite parts of my childhood.

@Haxonberik

Nintendo bundled the streepass games so, I could see them doing something similar here.

This is a good start to a Wii U turn around. I initially gave this head the cold shoulder but this may regain the casual audience. Is it odd that this and Kinect Sports Rivals are my most anticipated games.

I was going to pull the Saint's Row Card but it wears its over the topness on its arm.

@Damo

and the problem is what? Should I not Play Bully because kids kill themselves over the subject Matter, or should I not play Red Dead redemption because most westerns have racist undertones.

Who cares if its morally bankrupt if you as a user can determine the difference between the reality and fantasy. In the same way I like to play games where I'm a plumber who jumps on turtles, I sometimes want to play as a hardened criminal who does a line of coke, robs a bank, than leads the entire los santos police for on a wild goose chase before having some buddies help take all of them out, while listening too Maeater by Hall and Oats. Than getting bored and playing some tennis.

Yo Damien by that logic we shouldn't enjoy the majority of popular media becuase its sexist right. I completely understand where your coming from but at the end of the day the Grand Theft Auto series is a Satire that takes story beats from popular crime media.

So if your going to complain about Strippers and new Age feminsts, than surely you have to be offended by the take on Apple, The Tea Party, and in general the lampooning of hollywood.

Also where ere the complainers that Heat which this game is taking most of its inspiration from had an all male crew.

@WaveBoy

how can you say that when you haven't played it. (though I vaugly you remember not being an rpg guy)

Faith in Froakie reddemed. Chespin and Fennekin's evo's look stupid.
