Maybe they could have a free basic online like they have now and more advanced online sub they can charge for
This article title is misleading and directly contradicts the other article posted on N4g ( that is sourced much better) saying no online co op
You might want to clarify what you mean - are you saying there is on line multi player co op or not
Either way this article needs clarification
I m not a techie but how is a bug like that not noticed before it's released?
Didn t he say he may incorporate Project Guard and Project Robot into the Star Fox game?
Either way I don t see how any of these games could come out In the 1st half of 2015- Myamoto himself said they we're looking for a developer for Star fox and that he HOPED it could be released in a year
For the other 2 to go from tech demos to games In 6 to 12 months from e3 sounds like they would be rushed of they did- I doubt any of those games will Coe close ...
I wish they would release MH4 for the Wii u in NA. I think it would sell some systems for sure in addition. To software
Hopefully you are right - I Imagine they will save most of the remaining budget for SSB s. Should be interesting how much marketing the other games will receive - but I would guess the dev for Hyrule Warriors will put some money in the marketing for it as it is a very big opportunity for them
They have some a great job marketing Mario Kart but it may be the only Wii U marketing campaign that has been really effective- If I remember correctly thier overall marketing budget for this year ( not sure if it was fiscal or calendar but I think fiscal) is less than last
Well I have noticed that - it is rare that Individual sites and "writers" confirm information independently
This site IMO has higher quality content than most of these sites and I am glad they rectified thier mistake and learned from it - but most of these sites are questionable at best
Last quarter Mario Kart accounted for aprox half thier software sales
What games this quarter are going to "carry the load" and make it a better quarter for this one?
Nintendo s numbers were very bad this Q- and the trends are not looking good either-
Please look at Iwatas statement re the Wii u in the investor Q and A- the Wii u is NOT selling at a profit - only the remaining inventory from last fiscal year are selling at a profit because the losses were written off last year - any Wii u s manufactured and sold this year are done so at a loss
Nintendo probably listens to its fans/customers less than most consumer companies but that is not to say they don t listen at all- prob just not much or very often
Re petitions I would say that the actual buyers of a game would be larger than the number of signatures it gathers- The petition for Majoras s Mask has 55,000 now and that is a strong number of signatures but if they released the game tomorrow there would be a lot more sales than 55,000
You think Nintendo did not release many big games at the beginning of the 3DS and Wii U s life in order to give 3rd party games a chance to be successful?
Wouldn't t it be possible for a journalist to contact Nintendo to get the official translation?
I assume Nintendo s PR dept would handle something like that ( but not being a games journalist) I don t know
The Wii u is not making them money yet and it is not selling for a profit
I see all these comments that say they are doing fine w out 3rd party support but the fact is they are NOT doing fine - they have been losing money on an ongoing basis for the 1time in many many years- they have lost a ton of market share and the Wii u has performs at historically poor levels -
Even though Nintendo has the IP to create a lot of great content, it would take them ramping up thier game development capacity a ton and that raises thier fixed cost considerably ...
How can anyone disagree w my oh so serious and absolute factual statement about my electronic football being more powerful than the Wii u???
Or is it the statement that my Atari is stronger than pong?
Either way both are irrefutable
Considering I die multiple times in most any video game I play - I don t want to play myself!
My Attari has better graphics than my Pong game- My electronic football game circa 1977+- has much better graphics than the Wii u ok so the CPU is not quite as strong and the memory a bit light but it has a proprietary turbo GPU ( project mocha- real hush hush) that will have virtualy the same graphics as a PC ......
I did not see a quote that said the Wii u version would be equivalent to the PC version - only that the Wii u version would be closer to the PS4 than the PS3 ( as it should be)
This article is misleading - most people would consider "online play" to include online multiplayer downloading dlc and ,I verse post is not "playing". Since there are no details re "adventure mode" you can t say what it does or does not confirm
So no, downloading is not the same as " online "
Maybe the title should have been " mi verse post and DLC confirmed
Details to follow re online adventure mode ...
