No replying to both and he backs up my statement that if it were a few retailers making a mistake you could lay it off on the retailer- but to have most of the retailers making a mistake is irrational - but then again u probably think the lack of 3rd party games on the Wii u is someone other than Nintendo s fault or the reason it is selling so poorly is not Nintendo s fault too
It helps if you understand basic business which most on these boards don t- not a knock just tru...
If retailers did not know the game was out that is a publisher issue- it's the publishers job to make sure people/retailers are aware the game is out and make sure they provide enough stock and guide the retailers to provide enough stock
I can t remember the last time a newly released game was hard to find in a store to the point even pre order stock was not available
This is all on Nintendo - if it was something happening at a specific retailer or a v...
There is no reasonable excuse for Nintendo to not provide/ensure sufficient stock is available at most retailers - i feel bad for Platinum- they deserve better
Am I hearing an echo?
The wi u need saving???? Oh come on now, it's doing great - I m sure Nintendo hopes it's next home console can only do as well as the Wii U. I m sure the next console will see huge sales at launch after the Wii u s track record
The Wii U is slowly, very slowly building up a game library, Nintendo is just now starring to think of ways to use the game pad ( but not In The most obvious and potential filled way be asymmetric game play )
I have had ...
Very well said- it would be nice if your words/views/commentary would get some press as I beleive you are not only accurate in your assessment but many other people, gamer and non gamer alike probably feel the same way- Unfortunately the explanation is just too simple, won t sell enough media/clicks and won t make someone championing a cause famous or wealthy, earn them votes etc -
So the most logical views and explanations are too often dismissed it is too difficult to pig...
I hope we can get the game and I hope it is not censored- I also hope I am wrong in my assessment but the censorship inducing environment we have now in the West just makes it that much harder to get games like this to be localized but I hope it does now stop them
I wish we could get games like this but in the current environment where anything involving sex appeal is now construed as " mysogany - sp- I feel certain Nintendo won t take a chance in the foreseeable future
Grow up and consider learning how to think for yourself Mrs journalist
Most women don t embrace the brand of feminism you wrote about so why should the male gaming community.
Why is #Gamergate attached to the title of this article? I don t see a connection in the story nor is one stated
If that guy released this game in its current condition it would not even be the worst game in the e shop - The e shop will let any product release now even what I call the scammer games-
It is not good for the legit I does making real efforts to develop and sell their games
This guy AE is trolling IMO even if he acruLy releases a game one day -
He is a big Nintendo fanboy per his anti third party PR about a year or so back announcin...
There are more beta males in and around gaming than most any other industry and that is why they are being singled out- there are so many guys out there trying to please for the sale of pleasing and acting like something flimsy they become an easy mark -
So a few opportunist target the industry because they can and all of a sudden you have all these beta s jumping on the bandwagon w out looking or knowing what they are even doing due to a combination of fear, lack of convi...
Anti gamergate now officially the most conformist topic after mysogony aka sex discrimination but in gamer journalism they have to use the "M" word in all kinds of awkward and incorrect ways or they won t be in the cool peoples club
It is like sheep, one after the other all saying the same marrow minded junk that makes absolutely no sense
Isn t this a trope in and of itself- hero journalist pens another anti gamer gate article to come to the ps...
How can a "journalist" attribute most/all threatening comments to something very new (Gamergate) that represents an ideology of accountability in the games media?
How many "members" are there in Gamergate? How can they be identified as individuals that both represent gamergate ideals AND made threatening comments toward anyone?
I have never seen or heard anything that would lead me to beleive gamergate ideology would condone or acce...
Nice article for a man Nintendo fans and console owners will miss deeply weather they realize it or not-
Nintendo does not give hard dates till shortly before they release - instead they put the I do out there, they insinuate and hint knowing the fanboys will talk and write about these games coming as if it is inevitable - Nintendo knows how to game it's core fans as well as any company partly because many of its fans take what they say, insinuate and hint towards as gospel then repeat it loudly
They do give very wide windows, usually a year or more but often still miss the...
Nintendo has a track record aka history of delaying games and or insinuating they are coming them delaying them- Many on These boards have Been talking about X and Zelda coming out as early as holiday 2013
Nintendo has had a shortage of software since launch of the Wii U- many on these boards (and Reggie) have been insisting the games would be coming starting in 2nd half of 2013, then they were coming in 2014 - now they are supposed to be coming in 2015- My gues is af...
Honestly the only people I see being ugly in the gaming media sphere are these people making lots of ignorant accusations and similar toward "gamergate"
These growing number of small minded attempts to discredit viewpoints differing from their own ( or more accurately their own agenda s) so nothing but show the need for more credibility and accountability in the gaming media
Most of these people truing to make the gist of gamergate about somethin...
They have some selling points but they just can t ( so far) keep the momentum going-
If someone is going to only buy 1 console then in a way all the games are exclusives weather they are 1st, 2nd or 3rd party and or are only 2 or more consoles -
I only have a Wii u so every game on represents my on,y chance to play it even if the game is on multiple other consoles
If you are talking multiple console owners then that is a diff story - if someo...
7 million in 2 years is a record poor performance- their market share is dropping and they are not making an operating profit
This fiscal year and next should be the years Nintendo makes the most money based on the life cycles of both Wii u and 3Ds- they may make a small profit this year and next but not much more- ( it is still possible they lose money in their next fiscal year ), but Nintendo has a rough road ahead
Their revenue has also dropped consis...
