How was I gloating as you say? I thought what they showed was pretty awesome! MK8 looks AMAZING, as does Bayo 2, X, and NES Remix 2. They could have had sega hold off on the Sonic Boom announcement and put that in here, but it was still a good presentation. If you didnt like what you saw you have no soul and should quit gaming. The 3ds stuff looked great too. Super Yoshi looks fun as hell!
The hype was generating before they put up the counter. This will be a big direct and its obvious the gaming community is watching and hoping for something great. Why can't people just let other be excited for something. This is Nintendo and they've gotta be showing something good with all the negative press they've been getting from the media. Its time to shut them upand tthat's what they're setting out to do.
Don't poke the beast! People have been shitting on Nintendo for a long time now. But without Nintendo gaming would be nothing but a bunch fo second rate fps, dude bro, zombie, and crappy phone games. Gaming needs variety and the industry would die out in a very short time without them. 2014 will be a huge year for Nintendo,the 3ds and Wii u. Don't look now haters, it may be time to start cooking up that crow.
Its a Zelda-like title. They actually pitched this as a Zelda title to Nintendo, but Nintendo obviously chooses to keep Zelda under their guidance... Even though they let capcom make some zelda games on the GBA. Go figure. looks nice anyway!
I still dont understand why the hell they havent used the 3DS success to push the wii U. How effing hard could it be to HD-ify some 3DS games and get them on the U as well!? Holy crap.
Their strategy is at odds with itself. They have a game like Bravely Default, which is a massive JRPG and spiritual sequel to the old Final Fantasy games, and they put THAT out for a handheld? Why not release a console port of the massive RPG? I would much rather play that on my TV and couch t...
Id rather them remove Kinect from the equation than the Blu Ray and disc drive. Theres no way in hell I would buy a digital only console and I dont want Kinect, so I am still sitting on the fence. Why wouldnt they release the One without Kinect? Its not like its PIVOTAL to the experience of the system. I like controller just fine and dont need to talk to or wave at my device. Kinect is a waste and I supprted it on the 360 at first. Its garbage though and there is no real benefit to gaming wit...

If you ask for 100 people who love mc Donalds food to review mc Donalds food, they're gonna give it a great score. Doesn't mean its the best though. A good many reviews are bought and paid for. Basing purchase decisions only on review scores and saying you only get the best games is just wrong. U are limiting urself to what mainstream says is th best. Its the top 40 version of video games and its what's wrong with the industry. So much focus on scores becaus...
And this is the problem with our gaming society these days. People are conditionjed to see the score something receives and base their buying decision on that metric alone. Its a dangerous precedent because review score are so easily swayed by money. If a publisher pays comapnies to review their games well they can get away with anything because they know people are only buying based on the review scores. Call of Duty for example. Same thing year after year but still reviews good in the mains...
All these DK haters should be abolished from playing video games altogether. The kind of disrespect to the legendary Donkey Kong Country series that I see around the net is an atrocity! Yall are some brainwashed tools thinking DK games arent fun and are too similar and that Retro's talent is being "wasted". Anyone $h!tt!ing on this game deserves a bigg ole' DK slap upside their dome! Game looks incredible and looks more enthralling than all of the Xbone/PS4 games out now com...
Oh, the "It doesnt look like I think it should, therefore it sucks" post... You obviously wouldnt like a game like this anyway so why bother posting on the article? Dont you have some more CoD or something to play? Be gone troll..
Ehh sony fanboys are a very fickle bunch. I remember fanboys bitching about the jak and daxter designs back then. If they didnt change anything those people would be saying they keep recycling, then when something new is tried they say its too different. Whatever, those fools need to STFU and find something else to slog about.
Funny that they should be playing their shiny new systems but instead they still find time to slog the net and distribute their daily dose of nintendo...
I hope the hell so! I want to see some new stuff announced and be updated on their many goodies coming this year. They hopefully have a ton of announcements coming really soon... like a big price drop, an amassador Wii U program, and maybe even some brief looks at new and unnanounced titles. The sonic boom reveal was pretty good, hopefully there are more similar announcements incoming in the next few days.
wow the graphics look crazy good on this! wii u in full effect here. 1080p and the latest version of cryengine 3?! hope this sells good so more devs will use these tools for wii u games. Fanboys r gonna say this looks like crap, but if it was on ps4/x1 theyd be saying how great the old naughty dog guys will make it. hope this turns out as good as it look like it will.
I dont think screens can do this game justice. You really have to see the game in motion and tak in all the details and special effects that are bombarding the senses! The off-screen vids I have seen look amazing. What amazes me about these screens is not just how good Second Son looks, but how good Infamous 2 holds up! I am really hoping for a nice Second Son ps4 bundle, cuz if there is one thats when Im plopping down the 4+ bills. This is one of the Ps series that I absolutely must play eve...
I think Nintendos future is much more than games. I bet we see some sort of Disney collboration where Nintendo characters get their own movies, merch, and theme park presence. I wouldnt be surprised to see them also partner with a mobile platofrm company, either Appple or google, to bring a mobile type of experience to the Wii U. All this talk about quality of life experience coming fromboth Nintendo and Apple make me think there is some posturing going on behind the scenes. There are a lot o...
Thats a sweet list right there! Would love to see those happen. I really do want a cleaned up port of GTA 5 too. I think the Wii U gamepad would benefit hugely for that game. And I know it could run and look better than the 360/ps3 versions. Maye not quite as good as the PC/X1/PS4, but still good with awesome gamepad support.
Geist is also a title they should re-release in HD since so few actually palyed it.
I still wonder why the hell they havent brought more HD ports over if Wind Waker took only 6 months! Where the hell is the Xenoblade HD port, what about Metroid Prime Trilogy HD, why stop at Wind Waker HD? Give us Twilight Princess and Majoras Mask HD. Sony brings these HD ports and they sell pretty well. Wind Waker HD sold over a million with barely any install base. Obviously there is a market for the HD ports and Nintendo needs to do more of them. New titles are great and required yes, but...
I hope for LOTS o shortcuts and alternate paths! I miss those kinds of racing games. This kinda reminds me of that Beetle Adventure Racing on N64! Looks like itll be a blast and prove the Wii U is no slouch. 60 FPS with full anti-aliasing?! This will looks super crisp despite not being full 1080p. Thats fine and dandy. 1080p is not always required, dont know why trolls think it makes the games automatically better. 720p is true HD and more than enough to satisfy. Stop feeding the brainwashed ...
I was super pissed at Ubi for the Rayman delay, but that game turned out so good and they did such a good job with the Wii U AC 4 port that I have changed my stance toward them. Watch Dogs looks great and I am confident the Wii U version will e pretty good.
I am going to pre order this to show 3rd party some support on the U. Its really a damn good system, wish more people would see that. I love my PS and Xbox just as much as any fanboy, but once you actually play on the gam...
I am kind of glad they dont. There is a bunch of whiny, jaded people all over the internet that feel the world owes them something. The internet is the most narcississtic, bizzare place on the earth these days! I cant even get in a game of NHL online with the volume turned up without hearing someone call another some kind of horrible word that they would never say to someones face. If Nintendo listened to what fanboys from other companies and analysts said there wou;ld be no differentiation i...
