They bring this game to the other major regions outside of Japan. Game looks great.
Is looking great, the controls seem to be spot on graphics are polished and fluid, now we have Wii speak confirmation AND WM+. It just gets better and better. This game absolutely puts lazy devs on blast. In creating any quality game on any platform it requires time, patience, and dedication. HVS seems to have shown that with the Conduit, and when the game releases if the general consensus is that this game kicks a$$ then I will be picking it up and seeing some of you folks online.

Excellent posts. All this doom and gloom predicted by supposed "former Wii owners" is getting tiresome. It's always about having to "dust off the Wii" or "my g/f has the Wii". I doubt the ppl who say such rubbish have either.
Wow, how did this one get approved? I would spout my usual $h!t but someone beat me to it. (Please view Voices' post).
You are the first one to ever make me waste all my bubbles..congratulations. But your points made throughout this topic have been so nonsensical that I'm dissapointed in myself for responding as many times as I did. Even while writing this I feel guilty. Call Wii what you want but the fact remains that it is a video game system. Make lame car analogies all you want, because frankly, that's all you have.
The only ppl who baffle me more than you whoop, are the fools who agreed w...
Punch-out looks great, can't wait to hear and see more about it.
Fair enough, I can respect that perspective although I don't agree with it.
@Whoop by abandoning ship I meant just that, getting SHUNNED by third parties which is what happened to Nintendo. Sony isn't getting shunned just games that would be exclusive are now multiplat. And here we go again with the lame car analogies? give it a break. Wii is a video game system. You make it seem like third parties going multiplat is Sony's decision. Its about as much Sony's decision as the ten...
Heavenly sword? You can't be serious. And I absolutely don't believe Sony's first party can compete with Nintendo's.
@Whoop, I don't believe I said anything about "exclusive" 3rd party support. Even you must be smart enough to understand that PS3's installed base is not sufficient enough to offset the HD development costs, and that reason alone is why most third party efforts are multiplat. Sony's cool about it? they are currently sitting in last place atm.
How many Sony First party titles can hold a candle to Nintendo's? I highly doubt sony could survive 2 gens of thirdparty shunning..M$ not 1 gen.
So now we hear more complaining. @Whoop you do know Nintendo has the highest ratio of highly rated games and can lay claim to to the highest rated game of all time right? But all that is just to say that when Nintendo makes games they define a genre and influence generations. To call they're games "crap" is quite ridiculous. What alot of people like to forget is that Nintendo doesn't rely on third parties for success, and their first party titles are usually AAA. As oposed to ps360,...
I wasn't disappointed in Nintendo's E3 performance. I had come to see that E3 as we remember it was dead for the past 2 yrs now. I think E3 was just used by fanboys of other systems to bash the Wii. At E3 we got voice chat announcement, WM+, and now we have a storage solution, a plethora of "core" games and increasingly strong 3rd party support. And still we are hearing ridiculous fanboy comments? What have I been saying for a while now? Wii is trending exactly like the DS, 3rd part...
Bar must be set pretty low.
But a price cut for the Wii is so unneccesary at this point from a business perspective. Its selling out as is at its current price and will be the top selling console for the holiday season as well. The 199$ 360 will not affect Wii sales in the least. Price drops are resorted to when demand for a product is waning.
These lists are always hard for any gamer to make, because you don't wanna leave out some games but you know some are good but not great, but you enjoyed them so much...I'll give it a go, but I'm only gonna do my top 5
1)Legend of Zelda OoT
2)Super Metroid
3)Mario 64/Super Mario World
4)Resident Evil 4
5)Super Street Fighter 2
Damn..So many other games that I loved like Star Fox 64, Metal Gear Solid 1, Contra, punchout, Mario Kart 64, ...
How can this 'lil sack be the Mario of our time when Mario is still Mario in our time? I'm with the side that thinks LBP should just focus on being a good game. Mascots aren't just thrust on a pedestal. Mario wouldn't be an icon if his (main) games were crap.
Down right ridiculous. This LBP hasn't even been released yet, Mario is an icon.
More b!tching from PS3 owners about not getting MH3, give it a break already. Capcom pretty much handed Japan over to Wii with this game..Though Japan is pretty much Nintendo country as is. HD consoles are VERY expensive to develop for when going the AAA graphics route, I mean even FF13 went multiplatform, that in itself should tell u all how much the HD consoles are hurting the industry from a business standpoint. Look at how many companies are in the red because of resources devoted to thes...
I won't pst anything long and drawn out, but wasn't 2008 supposed to be the yr of the PS3? now here we are and not only has the 360 outsold the PS3 in Japan,(for 2 wks) analysts are saying 360 is going to outsell the PS3 in America during the holidays as well. Now if PS3 wants to catch up its going to have to outsell the 360 by amounts larger than 50,000 a month. Every yr that is touted as the PS3's yr turns out to be Wii's yr anyway. So what is 09 PS3's year now? While 360 may be plateauing ...
Another case in point of fanboys dominating a Wii news post, to tell Wii owners how lame the games Wii owners have to look forward to are. It never fails, I'm convinced that these fanboys are absolutely obsessed with the Wii.
One of the best posts I've read this week. I couldn't agree more. I've always said that I believe the "casual" vs "core" was bull$hit, and just a lame excuse for developers to prop $hit on a platter and sell it as steak. Pac-man is a great example of the futile attempt to pigeonhole gamers as a whole. As is tetris. I think the categories shouldn't be applied to the gamers that play the games, but HOW the gamers play the games. That is if we are going to apply the terms at ...
