FPzero posted:I'd imagine Nintendo publishing Ninja Gaiden 3 for Wii U was part of a deal relating to Team Ninja working on Metroid Other M. That's probably the worst deal in gaming history.

MUFFlNS posted:They obviously wanted something incredibly violent to try and attract core gamers, but forgot how terribly Mad World sold for the Wii. Like Ninja Gaiden 3 is gonna sell any better? If Nintendo wanted a game to attract core gamers, throw From Software a ton a cash and make the next Souls game WiiU exclusive. That would do the trick.

Bobnumerotres posted:The Wii U is catering to the core audiences again There's no guarantee of that yet and you know it. If Nintendo keep titles like MHTriU and Bayonetta 2 on the console CONSISTENTLY throughout its lifespan, then you can say Nintendo is catering to us again.

Rake Arms posted:*I don't think achievements are confirmed for Wii U, but there have been a bunch of leaks strongly pointing to it. I personally don't give a poo poo if it has them or not, but I guess some people do? I think Nintendo has said that achievements will exist only if devs want to put them in, which would make achievements useless since there won't be any dedicated Nintendo database telling the world how awesome I am at future Metroid games.

Vaerai Archon posted:If you designed Smash bros. to be a competitive game like Tekken or any of the other real fighting games, you would lose of what made Smash bros., Smash bros. He's not talking about turning smash bros. into Tekken. We simply don't want another game like Brawl that had its competitive aspects nerfed for "casual wackiness".

Artix74 posted:So basically everything that's out now, plus a couple small bonuses. Is there any kind of transfer bonuses for having a Darksiders 1 save? Because if not, I have no reason not to grab this for Wii U. If you have a Darksiders 1 save you get War's shoulder armor and a scythe that's based on the design of War's sword, but that's it. It's not even good armor.

Almost Smart posted:It could also mean there aren't a shitload of them available for purchase on day one. That's very possible. Nintendo could be trying the "launch with gently caress-all units, and then proceed to get on major news sites who'll stupidly report that the WiiU has sold out in record time in an attempt to make casuals think they need to hurry up and get one cause it's the next major thing" strategy.

Chaltab posted:I watched the conference last year and I honestly I'm still not sure how people got so confused. Yeah, they emphasized the pad, but they were perfectly clear that it was a controller, not the system. They also showed the U, which is noticeably longer and rounder than the Wii, in the sizzle reels, and had both the sakura blossom and the Zelda tech demos that demonstrated graphics far above what the Wii is capable of. It wasn't that clear. CNN still didn't know any better after THIS year's E3, and i'm willing to bet a lot of people who don't frequent the internet often still have no clue what it is if this video is any indication: http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_embedded&v=FEJRURH2xiM

MaxDuo posted:I realized immediately the Wii U was a new console when I watched that E3... I never once thought it was confusing / seemed like 100% nothing more than a controller for the Wii. Good for you? The fact that Nintendo even admitted the conference was poorly done kind of justifies everyone's confusion as to what the gently caress the WiiU actually was.

I know for a lot of fans trying to remember hearing the Brawl disc load in your Wii for the first time is like trying to remember your toddler years but holy poo poo, not even half the characters and stages are available to you at first. I wouldn't have minded unlocking the characters if Subspace Emissary was actually fun. It just felt like some shovelware Kirby game, which is ironic given the creator.

Polo-Rican posted:I'm always vaguely interested in Smash Bros releases, but not sure where they'll go with the character roster. There aren't many more nintendo characters that will get people excited. Ridley and Waluigi would be great. They NEED to fill up the Metroid roster more. Dark Samus and Ridley are two obvious inclusions, and they also need to update Samus' moveset and appearance. Three games in and she's still in her Super Metroid Varia Suit.

Artix74 posted:So what, we should put her in the Other M Gravity Suit now? It would be cool to see the PED and Light suits as alternatives, I guess. I'd prefer her Echoes/Corruption Varia Suit actually. I'm not holding my breath for Nintendo to give us proper alternate costumes for each character. quote:"Dark" versions of characters are almost always really lazy cop outs for character slots, just make them alternate costumes or something. Nobody complains when Akuma keeps getting into Street Fighter/Marvel games despite Ryu already being there.

Bombadilillo posted:I never went online other then kids doing mii stuff/ youvote whatever and netflix. All those worked great. Never tried to game online. That's the problem right there. To put it in short for you, online gaming on Wii was mediocre at best and a joke at worst. Third party developers generally had to work their rear end off to make their online work decently, and most of Nintendo's attempts at online play were a laughable trainwreck(see 4-player Smash Bros. Brawl).

Neddy Seagoon posted:Not really. The only reason most companies do it is because they're built to a 'AAA-Checklist' of what's perceived will and won't make a game sell and online multiplayer is up near the top of the list. It's why it gets tacked onto a lot of games that never really needed it. If ANY game needed online multiplayer, it's ZombiU. Nintento's online for the past generation has been a joke. If anything, Nintendo should be pushing developers to put online in their game just to say "Hey, we're different now! We know you crazy Americans care about online! Here it is!".
