The Wii U is a cool concept but it just needs software. Nintendo have games coming for it, sure, but third party support is heavily needed right now for people to pick up the system. Ports of year old games just doesn't work anymore. We also need new IP from both Nintendo and third party companies which use the Wii U Gamepad's functionality. The hardware/controller is there. It just needs to be publicized to both developers and consumers.
I totally agree! If people actually played it rather than assuming it's just a Smash Bros clone, they would understand how great it really is.
There is a large community for PS All Stars (listen to our interview with Omar Kendall) and I'm sure the diehards would buy every character they can for the game. Also, if the game becomes free to play, the game could become a giant for downloadable content (costumes, characters and stages). PS All Stars could become a money maker if handled properly.
I don't think Smash Bros or All Stars trump each other. I both find them fun. DLC doesn't make the game better, it lengthens its timespan.
Santa Monica is interested in hiring people from the studios which got laid off by THQ (Vigil Games) and Seth Killian, who has a deep connection to fighting games, is working at the studio. I'm sure Santa Monica have enough people and talent to cover All Stars.
If you really would want to change what's happening, actually create ad campaigns alongside the ESRB to inform parents about the ratings. Not many people go to arcades anymore sadly.
The PlayStation 2 was the most dominant platform of last generation. Where was the GameCube? The least dominant. People care about Jak and Daxter, Kratos Ratchet and Clank, Raiden and Sly Cooper.
Of course PS All Stars would flop in Japan. Except for Toro, there are no characters that demographic really cares about. If they put Cloud, Sora or something from Monster Hunter, there would be.
It's working now...currently downloading.
Final Fantasy VII is constantly on the top 10 for PS1 Classics and its on sale this week.
If you liked Ni No Kuni, I would recommend Dragon Quest VIII! It is very similar to Ni No Kuni and it has an incredible story! Ni No Kuni and Dragon Quest VIII are Level-5's finest!
The Wii U could have a future if Nintendo actually bring out some new interesting IP's which use the Gamepad's technology rather than shelling out the same game over and over again. Ubisoft used the Gamepad in a much more interesting way with ZombiU and they're a third party company!
It would be cool if he bought Double Fine but the way of how he's spending it is really great. I hope he continues to do well.
Read the article rather than just looking at the title.
I was hoping for that game to be released this year but I saw this coming. Will we have to do Operation Rainfall 2 so we can get this game?
Sesslar...
*facepalm*
I'm looking forward to playing Ninja Gaiden Sigma Plus. I have always wanted to pick it up but couldn't justify paying $20-$40 for it after the debacle of Ninja Gaiden 3. Now that it's free, I'll definitely check it out.
It's Jesse....not Jessie....
How the heck was this approved? Anyway, awesome news. This is pretty much a confirmation by the picture.
The reason why some people stopped caring is because they kept rehashing the same "New" Super Mario Bros formula again and again for 4 different systems! 2 games from that particular subsection of Mario games were released within one half of the year! They're finally creating a new 3D Mario game though! Plus, there are two Zeldas and an awesome "X" J-RPG for Wii U on the way! Super Smash Bros will be awesome too! They're actually understanding people's outcries...
Have you actually played the game, 007Bond? It isn't copying Nintendo.
