Konamis running out of no-name, incapable studios to feed the franchise to.
I love both the bands in your name.
OT Man you know nintendo news is slow when stuff like this is all you have to look at. A new announcemenf/trailer would be nice.
Nice to see more and more people talking with their wallets since Activision wont listen to our voices. We all know they'll ride this till the end, just like guitar hero.
I played about 10 hours of WaW and a ton of zombies, that was my cod fix for the next century... lol.
I am just so damn sick of these articles lol. As long as nintendo makes money off the wii u, theyre happy. They dont care where they sit in some petty console race.
They consider their worst selling home console gamecube, a system which only sold twice what the dreamcast sold in 3 years, a success. Why? They made money.
All i know is i see enough games through 2014 to make me choose a wii u over a ps4 (which i will get end of 2014), and thats a quite a feat for a "doomed&...
disagree for stating a fact
As a nintendo fan who played 360 most of this gen, im disappointed with the lack of emphasis on online. When people defend nintendo's couch co-op fixation, and say that online coop isnt needed, it disappoints me further.
Adding an online component to SM3DW would not detract from the game in any way, only add. But when the fans don't ask for it we will never see it.
Coming from 360, seeing the bare necessities that the ps4, one, hell even the vita have like cross game...
Depends on what you mean by good sales. If we're talking wii or ps2 sales, i doubt they would put as much effort as you think.
Those systems sold so well anything was guarranteed to make money, and so their libraries suffer from heaps upon heaps of shovelware.
I think the 360 and ps3 are the sweet spot in terms of sales, with the gamecube being at the bad lower end and wii being at the bad higher.
...Except its not.
Youre both wrong.

Sony contributed the dual analog set up that is the norm, were the first to incorporate a dvd player into a console. Also attracted a mature audience (something nintendo never did and sega tried to do) by advertizing the ps1 as more of an adult system.
Microsoft created the first well made online infrastructure with Xbox live, as well as pioneered pc architecture in a console (so did the dreamcast, but not as much so) in the original xbox, s...
I doubt itd come to the ps4 so soon guys, or the vita. Following the trend of persona 4 coming out on ps2, it'll probably be on ps3 (released digitally on ps4?) with a better version released on vita later. Not like it really matters, atlus games are never visually intensive.
Of course they do, but 90% of the indie games that were announced this year include a wii u version, because indie games have seen much success on nintendo platforms.
So a new indie game not on wii u is a little surprising,
DMC 2?! Your kidding right? There has yet to be another action game that surpasses bayonetta in terms of scale, combat depth, or replayability. And the reviews definitely support that sentiment.
Do you think any of the big 3 care at all about what "place" they end up in? You say grandma and grandpa need to find wii u to make it "succeed", but nintendo considers both the n64 and gamecube success on their own. Why? Because they made money on both systems in the end. Thats what it all comes down to.
Do you think MS cares they sold the worst last gen? No, because they made a ton of money and sold a ton of consoles.
If there is a game made by nintendo with a limit of 5, what is it. I find it odd you chose the number 12 to make your point when it can go down to 5, according to you anyway. I remember project x zone had a 6 limit, but that wasnt nintendo, as the demo limit is up to the publisher.
Better question, why complain about a restriction that is completely and utterly pointless. You say nintendo is forcing you to play the game the way they want you to play it, when absolutely no one cares a...
Not sure how many times you need to play a demo before you understand it, but rest assured 12 is plenty for most of us.
Even for ALLLL those people sharing the wii u with 3 others, they each have 3 tries apiece to decide whether or not they want the game.
This demo restriction, in reality, probably affects no one.
@jeff
Youre the same guy who chewed me out for criticizing nintendo's self destructive and ineffective piracy policies, and now youre calling me a DRONE?
Bayonetta 2, which i wont compare to the first game, but by far the best looking action game of last gen, GOW:A. Bayonetta 2 is confirmed to run in 1080p and 60fps, while GOW:A is 720p and fluctuates around 35-45 fps. Hell, compare bayonetta 2 to platinum's last game (which came out in 2013), metal gear rising. Bayone...
What invisible barrier must wii u pass to deem it "next gen"?
Cant we judge it based on its content, inventiveness, and individuality?
I can argue the wii as being a then "last gen" system, but thats because it was 90% gamecube. The wii u not only brings something original to the table like the wii did, but is also substantually more powerful than what came before it (what the wii lacked). I get that the wii u isnt very powerful, but you people act like its...
No, because it has a terrible antagonist (especially compared to 2's), and its obvious they wrote the game's setpieces over the story considering youre jumping across countries every other level. Then they cap it all off with a quick time event end boss fight (again, after a very tense, satisfying final boss in 2).
The first 2 are better than 3 in almost every aspect, and yet 3 got the same reception. Therefore, its a good game, just overrated and doesnt touch 1 and 2.
@andibandit
This, right here. People seem to think that the first thing customers will do after paying 400+ dollars on a ps4 is drop another 250 bucks on a vita. Add a game for each and ps plus and your wallet will be pretty damn light. i really dont see the ps4 selling the vita very much unless theres a bundle or a price drop.
I dont even think it'll make it halfway, personally. Its been getting 1,000 bucks a day for a while now. Hope they get some other means of funding, this game is way too big and niche for a kickstarter.
