The WiiU lacks games and advertising, it has no way of selling itself which it currently is failing to do
Dafoe can dominate my industry...
With that I take my leave
Having put well over 500 hours into PSO on GC and PC, I can hardly wait for a Western release.
Even if I had the money, I wouldn't get a WiiU for BO2. Pikmin 3 I can see, also ZombiU and AC3, but another CoD? After MW2 then MW3 I would spend about $10 on BO2 (not because it's bad, but because I've been there and done that for over 200 hours already).
I'm not ungrateful for the thought you put into making BO2, but it's not what myself and others are interested in. Paying 300 or 350 into a console doesn't leave you open to too many options, ass...
YES. I missed finding secret areas in the Hub world, one of my favorite aspects of games like Sonic Adventure or Mario Sunshine.
It's lazy to put out a Mario 3 kind of layout for a full 3D game
Because there isn't. You can only make water and fire so realistic, add so much lighting, particle, and shadow effects. The biggest leaps to make are in human rendering (I'm impressed with I:SS facial structure on the main character) and to add extra layers or fine tuning.
Look to find a lot of little things to add up in the next-gen, not major sweeps. I would expect more graphical leaps further in the generation as we go along, Several reports hint devs aren't ba...
We want Timesplitters dang it
HD Collection all the way
Next Gen systems aren't competing with each other, they're competing with the 360 and PS3
The WiiU is a major hit with the Indie Devs, too bad they make up the PC consumer base, and not consoles.
We don't know what MS is doing with the Xbox, but from the looks of it each will be going a different route with their systems.
Sony wants the core gamer, all the people MS and Nintendo left behind. Delivering with the best and diverse selection of games.
Nintendo wants a mix of casual and core gamers, interesting gameplay through the gamepad, the Nintendo franchises you know and love, and some other family/online social features
MS will want gamers an...
PS3 seemed to have an air of cockiness around it at release, like they assumed everyone would immediately dish out $500 for it because it was the strongest system. Having a console not many knew how to optimize also hurt them.
Taking a step back and getting back to basics was highly needed, I seriously doubt we will se a $500 base price.
This could actually be a good move for the WiiU. Ubi Bucharest made ZombiU, which while critically mixed had intricate gamepad features. They've had experience working with the gamepad, know how it works, and its capabilities. The game framework has already been confirmed (art direction, missions, core gameplay), we know it will run off PC tech (which is stronger than PS3 and 360), so what's left is incorporating the gamepad effectively (and other production).
While...
It will be nice to see Oceania get some support, there is a huge thread on the forums to express their displeasure at their dismal situation
It will be interesting to compare Gaikai to Miiverse when they are both fully fleshed out. Both welcome additions (I wish Miiverse could take in-game videos tho)
I'd like to see Snake stay in (one of my faves), maybe Wolf. I don't want direct clones (sorry, no toon/young link), so I'd like Falco to get a bit better of a moveset (too similar to Fox), wouldn't be surprised to get Bayonetta in the game (think of the Final Smash). Bring back some of the competitive nature melee had. Also better Character balance (so fast characters aren't favored over the heavy ones, and Link should not be that slow). Oh, and Samus to less 'Brawl&#...
Does the majority of people really care about 4k? Enough for the investment anyway? Seems a bit excessive for most people
WiiU suffers a bit from being too much in the middle of consumer bases. It's too hardcore for casual audiences (you get a "standard" controller now), but but not hardcore enough for those who want a super powerful system. WiiU needs a stellar advertising campaign if they want to truly make waves.
The Wii also looks to have sold 50% more by March than the WiiU. The message for the WiiU isn;t as clear as it was for the WIi, the advertsing blitz Nintedno put out for the Wii was pretty big.
Having "spokesmen" invade homes and showing off motion control and the fun family's were having with it were pretty catchy. I haven't really seen any T.V. advters for the WiiU that try to pull off the same message, they need to broadcast its potential. The ZombiU com...
Looks like Monster Hunter 3 HUD but with Mario weilding a hammer, fighting a giant Yoshi and Pikachu. Also Kirby is in the corner for some reason
I wanna see the Ocarina of Time set to scale Hyrule Minecraft map.
