#88670 Blizzard Says StarCraft On Wii U "Might Work"

Posted by 10k on 19 June 2012 - 11:08 AM in Wii U Games and Software

The first one was on the N64.

And it was an abomination.



#88745 Nintendo Offering "Insane Incentives" To Publish on Wii U eShop

Posted by 10k on 19 June 2012 - 03:15 PM in Wii U Games and Software

Since they'll make around $100 profit on each console they can rest easy giving publishers/developers 80% revenue, the more developers come on board, the more cool games hopefully come on the platform, the more consoles are sold, the more profit Nintendo make

$100 profit per console? Jesus Christ dude you are optimistic. The Wii only made Nintendo $6 of net income per console lol.

This is great news. Nintendo is slowly growing up and actually improving in areas where their competitors fall flat. Maybe third parties will show up on the Wii U.



#88751 Wii or 360?

Posted by 10k on 19 June 2012 - 03:18 PM in General Gaming

There's nothing to do on a Wii right now it's not enjoyable as it used to be. I just have to play the same old games.

Lol same goes to the 360. Halo 4 is not enough of a reason to keep my 360. That's why I traded it for a vita. I still use my Wii and I'm playing all the operation rainfall games and Pikmin 2



#88865 Wii or 360?

Posted by 10k on 20 June 2012 - 03:33 AM in General Gaming

Wii.

The only reason being the online payment. I find it a deterrent, and will only submit to it when everyone of the big three are doing it, in which case I'd have no choice.

I already consistently play my PS3, so I don't have to worry about the majority of 3rd party titles in that regard. I also don't care too much about Halo, Gears or Forza.  The only thing that Xbox 360 had that PS3 doesn't and that I want to play is Mass Effect... I think.

Well mass effect was a big reason why I got a 360 in 2007, that and huge promotion. But you can get mass effect 1 on the PC too so if you want the complete experience, buy the trilogy for PC and sell the Xbox ones like me.

Is it actually $100 that they'll make per console or was that just him throwing out some number off of the top of your head?





Lol thank you its a quote from David Cross (2nd funniest actor in the world behind Sacha Baron Cohen) on the show Arrested Development


Hope he pulled that number out of his ass because if not, those are some terrible mathematics.



#88881 What Games Have You Sunk The Most Hours Into?

Posted by 10k on 20 June 2012 - 05:59 AM in General Gaming

Title says it all. What games have you spent so much time on that you neglected your social life? It can be from any console/handheld or PC. Hell it can be a mobile game for all I care.

1. Pokemon Blue (GameBoy)

I played this game so much when I was in elementary school it got ridiculous. I played it more than all my game boy games combined. At least 200 hours was put into this game by me.

2. The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time (Nintendo 64)

My first N64 game and first Zelda game ever. This game turned me into a forever fan of the series. I beat the N64 version around 5 or 6 times and if you include the Master Quest and GameCube version and the 3DS version I spent around 200 hours in this game. I spent about 100 on the original version alone.

3. Legend of Dragoon (Playstation)

I only beat this game once, but played it up until disc 4 a few times. Each play thorough was around 50 hours. I sunk about 120 hours into this game and is still in my top 5 RPGs of all time.

4. The Legend of Zelda: Majoras Mask (Nintendo 64)

I played this game so many times just to explore its huge world and talk to all the characters and do all the side quests. Getting the fierce deity mask and using it against Majora was a high point in my gaming career. I sunk a good 80 hours into this game.

5. Metroid Prime (GameCube)

My favorite in the trilogy, my favorite GameCube game (even better than wind Waker for me) and beat it 5 times plus the wii version for a gameplay time at around 120 hours. Wonderful game.



#88889 What Games Have You Sunk The Most Hours Into?

Posted by 10k on 20 June 2012 - 07:18 AM in General Gaming

It's like your a monster hunter fan or something ;p

I forgot to add Starcraft for PC. Easily 500 plus hours into that game with its addictive multiplayer and user created maps and games.



#88908 HD TV?

Posted by 10k on 20 June 2012 - 08:34 AM in Wii U Hardware

Yes, the Wii U supports 480i and 480p output for SD tv's. But the games are meant to be played at a 16:9 aspect ratio of a widescreen tv instead of a 4:3 aspect ratio of an SDTV and using an SDTV will make the games look worse.

Go buy yourself a cheap 32" LEDTV that supports 1080p. It will be well worth it.



#88909 Crytek: Wii U is 'minimum as powerful as Xbox 360'

Posted by 10k on 20 June 2012 - 08:37 AM in Wii U Hardware

So if you DOUBTERS on this site actually read between the lines like I have been saying. He basically said in that interview the Wii U is already running a next gen engine. But I'm sure that isn't good enough for you guys.

Cryengine 3 runs on both PS3 and 360 downscaled. It's not next gen. Call me when they say frostbite 2 or unreal 4.



#89044 Crytek: Wii U is 'minimum as powerful as Xbox 360'

Posted by 10k on 20 June 2012 - 03:02 PM in Wii U Hardware

UE4 also runs on xbox360 and ps3 downscaled. call me when u actually know something about technology

Unreal 4 hasn't been released yet lol. It's a next gen engine that can only be ran by a 2011 level GPU. Call ME when you learn something about technology. Just because I am trying to be realistic and keep your hype levels in check doesn't mean you can start insulting me. I insulted nobody. Just because I said something that disagrees with your point of view I get insulted? Grow up dude.



#89047 Miyamoto Says Wii U “Might Not Be As Powerful” As The Next Xbox And PlayStation

Posted by 10k on 20 June 2012 - 03:21 PM in Wii U Hardware

Miyamoto can't answer it since the other companies haven't released there systems. He is also right that they have to balance cost with power. The PS3 couldn't find a good balance and that hurt in the begining. We will have to wait and see how it goes.

Yeah the Xbox 360 nailed the balance of power nd price. It was $299 for the basic and $399 for the complete system with wireless controllers and an HDD. It had graphics on par with the PS3 at the beginning of the console era and played DVDs as well while getting all third party games (sometimes the definitive ones too) all while being $200 cheaper than the PS3. It was good value. Too bad Iin Canada it was $100 more :(



#89049 [For Fun] If you could only pick 1 of the following which would you pick?

Posted by 10k on 20 June 2012 - 03:23 PM in Wii U Games and Software

Super Mario 128. This is too easy. You gotta poll without Nintendo's big 5 franchises lol



#89139 Monolith Soft Wii U project

Posted by 10k on 21 June 2012 - 03:42 AM in Wii U Games and Software

Well with HD development being expensive and making JRPGs more linear (ffiii and iii-2) I would be happy if this project was just as big as xenoblade but in HD! :)



#90846 What game should I get?

Posted by 10k on 29 June 2012 - 04:29 PM in General Gaming

Xenoblade too me 65 hours to beat. Try FF III and FF XIII-2. Try Darksiders (very Zelda like). skyward sword and twilight princess are long too.



#90872 Gamer Economic Pros Needed for trade-in advice.

Posted by 10k on 29 June 2012 - 07:07 PM in General Gaming

Eb games Canada is not like the US stores. They have awesome deals with trade ins. They add extra credit if you trade towards a new console. By trading in my 360, two controllers and 5 games I only had to pay $72 for my vita (regular $277 with taxes included).

I can't help you if you are in the states.
