Hardcore is a subjective term and as such is impossible to define. Hardcore to me is PC gaming, but that is my opinion and I know that I'll be blasted for it. My comment was more of a generic definition of "hardcore" meaning gamers who play more than 20 hrs a week and I'll even throw in adult gamers.
I don't disagree that there are "core" games that come out for Nintendo, but sales for these games are hardly indicative of a "hardcore&q...
I am waiting for a better selection of games before picking up a Wii-U. I also want to point out that it will primarily for my kids as I have turned to PC gaming via steam to satisfy my gaming needs.
I think that it is safe to say that Nintendo has officially lost the "hard-core" gaming crowd, but that doesn't mean that they don't have one or two gems that will come along.
A Quake comeback would be awesome!
Perfectly stated. PS4 for your core gaming, and Wii U for those Nintendo games that I am addicted to. Damn Zelda, the most expensive game that I have to play!
Rare is not what it used to be. With Banjo and Kazooie nuts and bolts, I have lost faith in them. Didn't most of the developers move to Free Radical anyway?
I think this Christmas will determine whether Wii-U can compete. This is the first Nintendo Console that I don't plan on purchasing.
I love emulation as it make accessible many great games. I wish there was a way to pay for the ROMs/ISOs directly from the publishers so that we can play them on our favorite emulators. I love HD Texture packs!!
I love the fact that the system is under powered as it means that you can emulate it on a computer. The dolphin emulator enhances the Wii experience, and as such I play my favorite Nintendo games on the computer.
That being said, I do believe that piracy is a problem for Nintendo. Their games are easy to find on torrent sites :)
So I boycotted this game long ago due to what they did with the graphics. I just started playing this with an emulator and I now really regret not playing it. It may not be the best Zelda, but it is a gem :)
Wii Dolphin Emulator = HD Graphics!!
I think everyone has their own definition of hardcore gaming. Hardcore for me would be someone who uses all their money and time to play games. PC gamers come to mind when I think of hardcore gaming, someone who spends 2K+ on their system. Thought it could be a console player as well as it depends on their habits.
Core gamers would be people like me who are in it for the experience. I love playing fun games, and I will gladly spend money on a quality game. I own all thre...
These are actually pretty funny! LMAO.
Its called the iPad mini! LMFAO.
Who still shops at Gamestop?
I bought a new PS3 a while back and I was not able to bring over my songs. Songs are licensed to the machine not the user. I have never used SingStar since.
I started playing the first Ratchet and Clank, and I love these remakes just as much as the PS3 games. This is a fantastic collection!
I can't wait for this game too. Played 2 and 3, so I can't wait to play the first game of the series.
Steam is awesome!!
I think this is the perfect opportunity for something like this to come out. Sony and Microsoft are not releasing new consoles anytime soon, and it is clear that gamers are ready for something new. My only concern is hackers hacking the online aspect of games like COD.
Only time will tell if this will be successful or not, however, I have the lets wait and see approach.
Shadow of the Colossus for me along with Crysis!! I can't wait till Tony Hawk HD comes out.
No thank you. I can't stand sites that make you create accounts just to access their content!
