Like how they destroyed Bayonetta and Monster Hunter?

@Majiebeast

Don't act slow, you know what the guy was talking about. He was insinuating that Nintendo would somehow dumb-down or change persona. So I made the point that Monster Hunter and Bayonetta have stayed true to themselves, Nintendo didn't alter those franchises at all.

Let's just drop the fanboyism here and guys and look at reality. Stop letting sentiment cloud your mi...

I agree. For Nintendo fans, it'd be great and optimal for Nintendo to buy Atlus. But for EVERYONE ELSE, it'd be best if a 3rd-party acquired them. It kinda depends on who you are really at the end of the day.

I personally would love to see Sega or Namco buy them, if not Nintendo.

"We r talking for consoles here not handhelds"

In that case my point still stands.

Monster Hunter Tri (Wii) - 2.11 million
Monster Hunter 2 (PS2) - 0.63 million

Why's that? They got the rights to Bayonetta 2 and she's as sexual as ever. Nintendo didn't tamper with the game at all.

Monster Hunter jumped ship to Nintendo, and it's selling quite well on Ninty's platforms.

Cool. I love Shin'en. For such a small studio they know tech and make some pretty fun games despite their simplicity.

That 710k made them a profit. You guys have to understand that those games listed are Standard-def development games, with only Prime 3 and Other M having AAA budgets. These are not HD, 300 million dollar Naughty Dog PS3 games. No More Hereos turned a profit as well. As for Red Steel, they made a sequel, so I'm assuming that also turned a profit.

And also:

630k for Twisted Metal (2012)
170k for No More Heroes Paradise (PS3+360)
270k for A...

This makes no sense. They list the Wii U specs as if we have confirmation, which we don't. 99% of that is guess work.

All we 100% know is:

1) There's 2 GIGs of DDR3 RAM
2) 32 MB eDRAM (extremely fast)
3) The GPU is a GPGPU, and some gens past the 360 and PS3.
4) The CPU has out-of-order processing, and 3MB of cache total.

That's pretty much it. We have no FLOPS performance numbers or anything like that, the...

"Memory" is a broad term, he could be talking more than just the main system RAM.

Don't forget that the Wii U has 32MD eDRAM of extremely fast RAM ebmedded on the GPU and it's CPU has 3x the cache that the 360 has.

^Exactly, it doesn't add up. This game was extremely low-budget.

-They spent no money on the graphics
-No money on voice acting
-No online multiplayer
-No marketing
-And it wasn't even built ground-up for the system, which actually would've been more expensive.

I'm interested in figuring out where the hell the budget went toward, cause I sure as hell can't see it lol.

I'm pretty sure AC4 was never confirmed 1080p 60 fps, but you forgot Mario Kart.

4595d ago 12 agree1 disagreeView comment

The game sold 460,000 according to VGChartz, with digital sales that most likely pushed it well over 500k. And the game had a small budget. I'm really surprised that they didn't make a profit on it.

How well did I need to do? Did it need to sell a million?

4595d ago 4 agree0 disagreeView comment

Yes everyone, let's focus on how many gigs the demo is running on and how many poly's are being pushed rather than focusing on the game itself.

What is it? What is the story? Will it be good? What does it play like? Etc.

For someone who doesn't even make games anymore, he sure does yap his mouth a lot.

We don't care about what you have to say Cliffy, at this point you can STFU. Get back into the gaming industry and make some great games that don't involve overly masculine steroid soldiers and guns and maybe we'll take seriously what you have to say.

Until then, your opinions do not matter sir.

Monolith is actually first-party.

Goes to show that even Miyamoto feels that DK doesn't take advantage of their full potential.

They(Retro)really should've given Tropical Freeze to another studio, and worked on something that could truly show their power.

These screens don't do it justice, these are screen-games from a live-stream it seems. Go watch the trailer in 720p if you haven't already: http://www.youtube.com/watc...

Actually Mika, the Xbox One is closer spec'd to the Wii U than it is the PS4. It's REAL FLOP performance is actually 800-1000, compared to the PS4's 1.8 FLOPS.

You can't look at the raw specs of these systems.

1) 2 of the Xbox One's CPU cores are reserved to the OS.
2) 37.5% of the RAM is reserves to the OS.
3) And 10% of the GPU is reserved to the OS.

And now there's reports that Microsoft has down-clo...
