Why isn t it labeled as satire? Why do they let satire post without proper notation
It's kind of like the "rumor" stories posted as news - if it says rumor that means the author can make up whatever they want
And if they keep going the way they have been they will only be selling Nintendo in Japan
For the record though - they sell more Home consols and hand helds in the West
You may be correct - at the very least the aren t going to do Nintendo s work for them
I hope enough people can pull thier funding and get their money back so that not only this communitty but others know there are consequences for treating thier backers poorly
I m afraid most of these kick starter type campaigns are just in it to get free money w I little to answer to- Someone like Inafune could have raised the money through other conduits but it would have cost him much more
Nintendo obviously did not try very hard- They are one of the only platforms to not have Minecraft. When time after time Nintendo misses out on key 3rd party games it becomes more obvious the problem lies with Nintendo not the countless companies that decide to either pass and or not make the Wii u a priority
Iwata said they don t want to compete and they have not on many levels
There are other games I Personally would rather have on the Wii u but missi...
The fact existing Skylanders don t open any of the elemental areas ( you have to buy 8 Trap Masters at $16 each to open all the areas -no matter how many Skylanders u have from previous additions) and are not really balanced to fit well in this version is disappointing - then, if I understand correct you have to buy the traps for each individual villan if u want to catch them all (40 something I think).
The previous versions I felt incorporated your existing collection pret...
Why can t Nintendo just step up and get the actual Minecraft on its platforms?!
It's on virtually every other platform conceivable yet Nintemso could not or would not do what it took to get the game on the Wii U and or 3DS
Finger Fun? Are they a nap store developer? Have they done anything on consoles before?
I Bet Fatal Frame would sell better in the West- Why the heck don t they localize it!!!
Most women could care less about something like that in a video game - but the vocal minority making noise about anything to do w women In video games have people feeling the need to apologize for someone else's creative and or business decision.
Why the commentary as it relates to video games, a relatively inocuos medium/industry?
Have these people ever listens to many a rap song? Ever thumbed through an issue of Cosmo or looked at a Vicroria s Secr...
I don t know who David Gibson is but he does seem to be the one that made many believe the Wii u was no longer selling at a loss - however he was wrong
The quote above re the "Nintendo Statement" is directly from Iwata from the Investor Q and A.
I wish Nimtemso would support these excellent games w more advertising and marketing Etc
Or is to bad Bayo 2 released so poorly in Japan - hopefully sales I'm the West will make up for it
To the guy that wrote this article - comparing Bayo 2 sales to W 101 sales does not help your argument AND there is no reason any website would be hiding your comparison for the purpose of harming the Bayo 2 sales image- If anything it helps Bayo 2 by not comparing it...
Read the article- they were lined up for the limited edition collectors version of which Nintendo decided to offer 300-500 only from the NY store for the entire country
Why does Nintendo make so many plain inept decisions -
I have a Wii u, I generally like it despite Nintendo terrible handling and planning for it but given their constant poor decisions it is surprising the Wii u is not selling even worse
At the very least they should mak...
Why should any developer feel the need to add a female character due to politics ? If they are truly missing the market by not having a female option then the market will teach them- But when politics force business to do something that Isn t what they feel is The best interest of the game or is just superfluous to the game then we all suffer -
I think Metroid is a great game - But I think it would be stupid for Nintnedo to create an option to play as a male ..... Unless ...
Ironically - according to this article (at least some of the data it references), Bayo 2 is probably selling in line or better than Nintendo expected due to % of stock sold and Mario Kart sales were disappointing based on the same data - I would not be surprised if this is actually true - it does not appear Nintendo had high hopes for Bayo 2 but I m sure their expectations for Mario Kart were higher than actual sales ( In Japan anyway)
Why did Nintendo even bother with W 101 and Bayo 2 - Both games are high quality games that deserve the attention of both Nintemdo and Wii U owners. They have done a very poor job marketing both games and both games have had disasterous releases in Japan - I am sure Bayo 2 will sell more in the West but right now it does not look like sales will be as high as they should be - clearly Nintnedo decided to put thier marketing dollars elsewhere -
Make no mistake, Bayo ...
Good thing the Wii u has a consistent flow of 1st party games and such strong 3rd party support because what they release for the e shop is pitifully lacking ..... Oh wait.....
I thought this was one of those "Rumor" articles at 1st- Regardless it sounds kind of odd-
Nintendo just needs to get Minecraft on the Wii U
Wow- why would someone send money whe they have little or no practical recourse to get it back
Sounds like this guy can just pocket the money if that is what he wants to do or perhaps pay off debt he generated
If the guy hS assets maybe there will be a class action suit but that won t do much for the people who donated - only the attys
Thank you - I would have never come close to guessing correctly
Third party Dev s take big risk every time they put a game on the Wii U and they have been losing risk, otherwise they would continue to support the platform
If they deem the risk too high then the platform owner needs to step up and share some of the risk - in this case Nintendo does not seem willing to do so - maybe they think the risk is too high as well -
