If it was a star tropics game we would have already heard about VC releases of the first 2 titles. They need to get people up to speed if they're going to do another one. My bet is on something in the Earthbound series. Possibly the Earthbound that was being worked on for N64 resurrected?! They already announced that earthbound would finally be released on VC so that shows me they are trying to build hype for that series again. It just makes sense. Also, I really hope to see a program to ...
Holy crap this is getting out of hand for Microsoft. How do they come back from this? The damage is already done and I don't think any amount of exclusive, awesome games can fix it.
U upgrade the versions for Wii u if u already own them on Wii vc. Its 1.50 for SNES and $1 for nes. Its worth it for gamepad miiverse and restore point implementation.
Awesome. The Wii u virtual console is on fire right now. Its getting so little press but in the last few weeks we have gotten some heavyweight releases. Super Metroid, super Mario world, Mario 2, Kirby super star, super ghouls and ghosts, and now mega man X ( easily my fave MM game). Sure one could argue that these are old blah blah and have been re re re released, but there is whole new generation of gamers that will be able to experience and actually ENJOY these classics with help from miiv...
Nice. The heart and soul of Rare is working on the Wii u after leaving Rare after MS purchased them. That's some poetic justice. Nintendo should give the old guys from Rare a new studio and let them work on some DK games or new IP. I'd like a new open world 3d DK game like DK 64 but better! Make it happen Nintendo!
Well that's a pretty good list and of ones you have played. The more of these classics you play the more you will realize how lame gaming has really become. Publishers are trying to make games appeal to every audience possible at the cost of innovation and quality. They're killing the artform of it to make a quick buck. Go play through chrono and earthbound and then try to go back to some of today's games that are major sellers and you will be sorely disappointed. Graphics really ...
Some things are just timeless. Many games from the SNES era hold up so good today that many people long for the day of old when it was all about the story, imaginative worlds, and solid gameplay. You bought a game and played if for months on end without worrying about patches, dlc, or multiplayer. My group of friends played Earthbound and Chrono Trigger like they were the only games in existence. The fact that I can still go back 20 years later and enjoy these games just as much is a testamen...
Bullshit. They have been given the benefit of the doubt by gamers the world over and a lot of people converted because of the game lineup earlier in the console cycle of the 360. They lost track of what gamers really want and now they are backpedaling just like ea on Wii u support.
They CLEARLY showed what the new system is all about by that conference; TV, sports, video and subscription services. They showed what, two games and target videos of sports games? Fuck outta here ...
Scapegoating... What a bunch if idiots. They obviously don't get it. Did the gaming media put that conference together and force them to use DRM methods that turn consumers away? They dug their own ditch and they will pay dearly for it. MS will be done in the console business after the one, and this is coming from a huge Xbox supporter, 10 year Live gold subscriber!
I have to agree with this considering I am only waiting for a price drop to get a vita. If Sony announces a vita/ps4 bundle then I will wait for that. The Wii u has me convinced that two screen gaming is true next gen stuff. Imagine never having to pause to access maps and menu stuff in fallout/ elder scrolls and the bevy of RPG sure to grace the Sony platforms. Sony has the potential to one up Nintendo in this regard because the cross play incorporation and guaranteed support from big time d...
It just shows me that Nintendo knows how to turn a system around. And look at the fact that EA games don't sell for shit on the 3ds and there is plenty if proof that the Wii u will be fine and publishers will be backpedaling on Wii u support before too long. They're going to miss a lot of sales potential by avoiding what very well could become the number one next-gen console sales wise. No one thought the Ds Wii or 3ds would sell at all and they have all become number one sellers. The...
Too late, change the name to Xbox dOne. I refuse to be spied on by giant corporations who don't care about consumer privacy. The x1 stopped being about games when they made the kinect a required device. The price will be high because of tech that not everyone cares about. I am so sick of the everything subscription model. There is no amount of backpedaling they can do here... It won't work the damage is done. Hardcore gamers don't want features and other shit we don't need sho...
Microsoft doesn't care about gamers or games in general, they just want access to your living room so they can get you to subscribe to their services. I can't believe I was sucked in with Xbox live but no more. I am done with ms for good and I've been a hardcore supporter since the first xbox. Its painfully obvious what ms is up to And they can burn in hell with ea in tow. Fool me once, shame on you. Try to fuck me over and ur done! Many gamers feel this way and ms is trying anyth...
No way. The ps4 and Wii u both have something the x1 won't, and that is a true two screen experience. Its built right into the fabric if the Wii u with the gamepad and Sony is going to implement it we'll with the vita. Ms smart glass is no comparison to what the other two are offering.
Could Wii u earthbound sequel be Nintendo's E3 megaton?! I hope the hell so! That is a megaton of unseen proportions! I told all the Wii u haters to chill the hell out...
It leaves the door wide open for the Wii u to gain a spot in the next gen marketplace. Most gamers own two consoles each gen... I see the ps4 and Wii u being the dominant next gen systems. The Wii u will be priced right and have a killer lineup of games that people want to play, not to mention a head start of at least 5-6 million systems by the time the one release. Ps4 will seemingly have the more impressive exlcusives initially at least. It'll be interesting that's for sure.
Microsoft is going to get trolled so hard when the one gets spanked by the ps4 and Wii u.... People who were counting out the Wii u will be impressed with what Nintendo has lined up... What a let down by Microsoft. They had so much good press going in and everything feels so deflated now. Hopefully some big reveals come e3...
I fondly remember my first PS3 experience... I swear this scenario to be true. I bought the MGS4 bundle, brought it home all excited to play then had to wait 40 minutes for a system update then another 5 + hours to install and update MGS4. My first ps3 memory was playing my 360 for 6+ hours while waiting for my ps3 to "do its thing." Anyone who says shit about the U is a blinded fanboy who has yet to actually sit down and play the system for more than an hour. And I am a big ps3 and...
Wasn't e3 Almost canceled several tikes in the last in favor of smaller events?! Nobody remembers? E3 is a waste of time. Companies should hold smaller and more frequent events that people can actually attend. We don't need the press to tell us about shit anyomre. There have been too many payoffs for publications to be relevant anymore. Customer opinions are what matter, and companies are better off speaking directly to consumers about their products.
No dis-kinect = no buy. Its a wasteful piece of tech we will still be forced to pay for. All the backpedaling in the world can't save the all in one wannabe game console. Their focus on all this other shit is their death knell. Too late MS the damage is done.
