"and performing just as well"
Did the PS3 and 360 versions have screen tearing like the Wii U version does? If that's the case, then sure. If not, then no, it really doesn't perform just as well.
I enjoyed the game on Wii U regardless and got a 100% completion percentage on it. Took just over 21 hours to do.
That's pretty cool. I'm addicted to Miiverse as is.
It'll probably be an incredibly late port of Deus Ex: Human Revolution. That's just the way third-parties and Nintendo home consoles works.
To use your word "actually..."
Actually, price drops historically do little in the long term for a platform. A price drop combined with software people and a steady supply of those games is what works long term, again, historically. That is why the 3DS has done much better in Japan. I don't see that happening with the Vita. There is Soul Sacrifice, and that is it. Then the Vita will again start to sell lower and lower until it's back towards Wii U levels. <...
It's going to be $3, but that's because it's quite short. That said, there's plenty of different objects to drop down the game's levels.
This game is on my radar for sure. As I said in another article, not because it is one of the few releases on the Wii U, but because it just looks incredibly fun.
I think once the Wii U starts getting a steady stream of games (The Amazing Spider-Man was the first Wii U retail release in months), the system will start selling better. I don't think just one game will do it. It's the same problem the Vita is facing currently.
Oh, yes, of course. This article wasn't meant to be saying that a game must be cheap to be fun. Sorry if that message was somehow presented to you or anyone else.
Some would say that people looking forward to this game are only doing so because it's one of the few games coming out for Wii U. I say I am looking forward to this game because it looks charming, awesome, and most importantly, fun.
After I posted that I saw the update, downloaded it, looked up what it did, and lo and behold!
tl;dr - Yep! Thanks. :)
The game freezing when one backs out of it on the Wii U keeps me from downloading it. That's the system I want the game on because of off-TV play.
I can see someone in the TV's reflection! Not bragging as it is easy to see, but still. I found it funny! :)
EDIT: It takes little to amuse me tonight apparently.
I just wish it wasn't $14.99. It would be much easier to jump on if it were a tad less.
^ EDIT: heh I edited that to be nicer, but I think it's still mean of me. :)
Thanks for that, LOGICWINS. I'll file that under the "no shit" category.
I'm saying it's not an original article or an original topic to discuss. That is all.
It'd be just like if we had 500 "Why the Xbox 360 rules" articles. Too much of anything is bad. Thanks for misconstruing what I was saying.
You should have just posted "wait until GDC." Then after GDC, "wait until E3." And then after E3, "wait until Tokyo Game Show." And so forth.
That said, these negative articles showcase nothing new in the field of originality, so there's no point approving them (unless you are a fan-thing that thinks that approving negative Vita articles is "owning Sony fans" or whatever nonsense). And no, writer of this article, I will not follow y...
"everyone is getting tired of Mario games"
*sees the great sales for Mario games*
Sorry. You are mostly incorrect. (Edit: You have some form of being correct with the NSMB series.) As a general rule, never use massive generalizations like "everyone" and "all." Instead, please speak for yourself. There are plenty who are excited for Mario because each game is not the same. It'd be different if each Mario game was of the same g...
If only the game were being released in February or April. March is packed as it is, Wii U included (Monster Hunter and LEGO City). Still, good work and effort by a developer should be rewarded, plus I missed this game on the other platforms. I might check out the Wii U version.
The article isn't asking about the future of Nintendo or any company. The article is clearly talking about the future of the Wii U, which people who own one or are interested in getting good games care about. Not that difficult.
Thanks for clearly not reading and wasting both of our time. As for why you, because God needed a punchline.
That's a part, but Nintendo's games stand on their own without nostalgia as well, or else kids growing up today wouldn't be enjoying them as much as adults do now.
