"Too often to be considered ok"

So, we limit the number of games allowed to show a little skin? How many per year are allowed then before we draw the line and say "ok, quota met!" Anything beyond this is NOT ok.

1... 50.... 1,000?

It's a game. It should be whatever they designed it to be.

You're right in that Kotaku has the right to publish that leaked information. But Ubisoft and Bethesda also have the right to cut them off dry in response.

There is such a thing as responsible journalism. They must use sound judgement before publishing info whose respective owners do not want published and never intended to be leaked.

Bethesda and Ubisoft owe Kotaku nothing. There is no entitlement. So if they choose to disrespect the publishers wishes in...

Because sales are sales. Same reason they ported to Vita, which has different architecture.

Nearly 11 million Wii U owners. Guaranteed Minecraft could pick up one, maybe two million sales given its popularity.

And 3DS? Money maker for sure. I think they do plan on porting it, now that MS owns it. Question is, when.

This game is going to be fantastic.

Grab a Wii U and a copy of Xenoblade X, Mario Maker, Splatoon, Bayonetta 2 and Mario Kart 8 and you're set for a couple years lol. Might as well toss in Donkey Kong Country Tropical Freeze and Pikmin 3 too, just because they're that good.

Personally, I think it was part of a deal to get Dragon Quest 7 and 8 localized on 3DS.

I find it a little coincidental that both games were announced alongside Cloud's addition to the Smash roster.

Conquest is on a cartridge, Birthright is on a second cartridge, and the third path Revelation will be DLC released post-launch.

The LE is available right now for preorder and includes all the above, an Artbook and 3DS pouch, all in a collectible Fates box.

$79.99 for LE

I'm an F-Zero fan, and trust me I am.

Congratulations. You bought something that's popular. Ya know the more it sells the cooler you become! (Or so you would think judging by these posts)

The criticism was not that Uncharted wasn't fantastic. It is.
But that doesn't mean it's perfect and free from criticism.

This is why we don't see innovation and evolution in gaming more often.

People like you are stuck in the 80's and anything different than the status quo is "a gimmick".

20 years ago we were all dreaming of the day we could have a screen on our controller. 20 years ago we imagined what it would be like to have a real power glove that worked. 20 years ago we could only dream of virtual reality.

Now no one...

Quite possible, yes.

The other possibility is they're the only ones left uninfluenced by mega-publisher ad dollars and have the gall to call it what it is.

I couldn't tell you which is the case. All I know is I ordered the game and I'll soon find out for myself.

I ordered that DK barrel just for the games I'm currently in the middle of playing.

Eh...

Before you go relegating their IP's to trash, why don't you try playing DKC Tropical Freeze, Pikmin 3, Mario Kart 8, Wonderful 101 and any number of others they have to offer on Wii U.

I mean, I get that people have different taste and all, but you'd have to dang near hate playing video games in general to make a statement like that. That or you're judging them by appearance without actually trying them for yourself, or basing on some pa...

Well Idk if it's the best of the best, but I could make a good argument for it being the best console Nintendo has ever released.

I know because I actually own the console, and buy a crap load of games for it so I have a lot of first hand experience with what it has to offer. I also own all the other consoles so I have a pretty good baseline to compare it to.

So sure, it may not be "best of the best" but the ones here acting like it's not a ...

I gotta seriously question your judgement man.

Any gamer that seriously thinks any console is trash and has nothing to offer- be it Wii U or otherwise- is either ignorant or trolling.

What makes your comment even more outrageous though is just how many top tier games there are on Wii U.

At the end of the day though, I know I love playing my Wii U and have since I bought it. You can trash it, say how sorry it is and claim it has nothing worthwhil...

I gotta be honest here, I have the same issue he's talking about.

They're just oddly placed. No need to defend it- it is what it is. It's a fantastic controller no doubt. But that's it's major flaw. Those top shoulder buttons are a pain to reach. The human hand just doesn't have the movement needed to easily reach them. Shouldn't have to "roll" any fingers to trigger them. The should just be placed lower and perhaps angled back a bit for ...

^^^ Listen to @gedden7

It certainly can happen.

Nintendo has always been family friendly but, that's not all they are. Their games are also appealing to gamers and their consoles will reflect that.

Do not forget that Nintendo has made twice as many consoles that were the most powerful of their day as they've made lesser powered consoles.

You can be family friendly and still have a powerful conso...

Sony for setting the bar with ease of use, performance, reliability and value. The PS brand has become a staple of reliability and value, and I know when I buy Playstation I'm going to get my money's worth... and I appreciate that.

Microsoft for setting the online bar, setting the example of how to own up to mistakes (because mistakes WILL be made, and it's nice to see them take responsibility) and more recently, setting THE bar when it comes to compilation value....

They absolutely do innovate.

The problem isn't that, it's that Little Big Planet sucks. It's one of THE most boring and dull platformers I've ever played, and platformers are my favorite genre.

I'll give em props for trying, but the gameplay is just dull. The mechanics are floaty and imprecise, there's no real flow or challenge. I can't stand the series- which is why I never bought LBP3. I learned my lesson and it wasn't just a...

"Draconian"

Every other internet post nowadays uses this word. Think it's time we spice it up a bit. Find a new word to blast to smitherines.

Same goes for "archaic". Draconian and archaic. I could go the rest of my life without hearing these words.

Oh... sorry. Carry on.
