Yeh Nintendo havent made any new IP's since N64...

.... Like Pikmin -_-

We all think Ninty doesnt make any new IP's but if you look hard enough you'll find them. Once again it goes to show we only publicize the games which feature their main characters usually.

"women only game on their ipads and phones playing casual games."

Dont ever generalize.

Women play the games they like as individuals as do I and I'm sure you do the same. I think the real issue is that for some reason we think we have a problem if a certain hobby's community/fanbase is mainly male.

Destiny looked as though gameplay may have some similarities to Halo. So while you wont have the world/lore to play in you'll have something similar at least :)

I love PC gaming and if you want one system for it all (minus the obvious stuff) its great! Comes with its fair share of problems though. I remember upgrading to windows 7 and having to figure out how to get ME1+2 to work again :/

"All we PC gamers get are crappy MMOs (repeatable quests) and a few exclusives here n there."

Actually I really enjoy GW2! Playing games like that with friends is a blast. Also RTS's really only have a true presence on PC and its a genre which I and many others love!

"What's the point of paying $500 to upgrade my PC or even to buy the titan,. when I already have the greatest gaming platform imo."

because that $500 ...

@TotalHitman

Could be true. The worrying thing is that this price increase isnt something that looks as though its out of reality.

We hear a fair few Devs/Publishers (Tomb Raider was one of the more recent)complaining about not making enough of a profit that makes me think this is possible.

EDIT: Just noticed!

"titles will carry an RRP of £54.99 - £5 more than the average current-gen RRP."

...

Dude look at Amazon! Just about every dev/publisher on next gen has done this.

"At least PS/XB fanboys live with facts, but WiiU fanboys, seemingly, live outside of reality."

@Th4Freak

I could continue reading through that Wikipedia page for hours and it would still not answer what I asked: "Since when did what most people do represent how "adult/mature" something is?"

Who's the more mature here?:

Someone plays BF4, Watchdogs, Skyrim and Portal 2 but is unable to effectively control his/her money, get a job and provide for a family.

Compared to:

Playing Jac...

@ShinMaster

"Are you kidding!? Comparing Blu-ray to Kinect?
That doesn't even make sense. One is useful and the other isn't"

Both ramp up the price of the console with very little benefit to the consumer.

"Sony also included a DVD drive with the PS2. Was that "shoving it down our throats" too?"

No because it benefited the consumer -_- (what about this do you not get). Using Cartri...

I think this article is a great representation of the two sides!

Neither are fans of reading articles that contain more than two paragraphs -_-

@Th4freak

Since when did what most people do represent how "adult/mature" something is?

"Well, most males get over Pokemon and Mario at 13, so yea its kinda unbelievable."

Wow... You are dull aren't you. Is the Banjo, Ratchet & clank, Jak & Daxter and Sly Cooper games for kids? Because I dont see any big difference between all of them in their theme's. And yet compared to those Pokemon easily contains the m...

Would be cool to see the updated design too!

@Gaffyh

At E3 they said they're heavily investing in 5 studios. Two of those are 343 and Black Tusk. So we obviously know what Halo 5 will be like but Black Tusk's game is still hasn't "truly" been revealed.

The other 3's work is still a mystery. If anyone could confirm which studios the other 3 were just in case we have actually seen what they're working on please do so :)

Mine will probably end up being Pokemon X/Y! I'll be playing it for years from now :)

Same here. The only pokemon I've ever had an issue with was Vanilluxe: http://serebii.net/pokedex-...

His design IMO seemed like they were getting desperate.

I think Honedge looks awesome though! Steel/Ghost type sounds pretty cool too. Cant wait to catch it and see if it can be competitive :)

@Truechainz

Truly wish I could bubble you up for Well said and Intelligence.

You sir deserve a years supply of cookies!

Aaah your more into the "America's in trouble and... GUNS" story hmm?

You can fault Ninty for using their IP's over and over again but Im sure that many of our 360/PS3 libraries have a large amount of shooters or games which use
"shooter-esque" mechanics.

To which I ask: Whats the difference?

I think more people should actually read the article and understand what hes saying. I personally agree with what Miyamoto's saying:

"He went on to talk about how Pikmin became a new IP when it was developed for the GameCube. The first thing Nintendo did was create a new style of gameplay and then looked for a new character to make it work. The current characters such as Mario, Link, Samus and Donkey Kong could not fill the role and so Olimar and the Pikmin were born...
