#266511 Star Fox Academy

Posted by Alex Wolfers on 14 January 2014 - 08:40 AM in Wii U Games and Software

No

 

Sounds like a furry version of a high school anime. Also no Krystal.

But that would be epic :)




#266303 When Do You Think Nintendo Will Announce Their Next Handheld Console?

Posted by Alex Wolfers on 13 January 2014 - 11:29 AM in General Gaming

2017 or 2018 will probably bring us the successor if you ask me.




#266302 Retro might work on future Miyamoto game

Posted by Alex Wolfers on 13 January 2014 - 11:28 AM in Wii U Games and Software

Said it many times but with Darksiders art talent at Retro they need to make a new Metroid. The former Prime artists left to 343(why Halo 4 enemies look just like Primes) Grays works is in the enemies of DKTF but let him let loose on Metroid. For those who never played Darksiders

Some of his stuff http://grayginther.deviantart.com/

 

Also did The Jailer in DS and Wars Chaoseater and others. He's not Joe Mad but still very talented. Be shame if it never happens

 

I'm also thinking Shiggy's game will be an FPS since it's the only thing he hasn't done and said that's the genre he wants to work on. 

That would be pretty interesting to see. One can only hope for such thing.




#266301 New Monolith's X Info

Posted by Alex Wolfers on 13 January 2014 - 11:26 AM in Wii U Games and Software

Confirmed to have toast.

I don't kno what it's saying but thats the best ad campaign ever!




#266166 Dark Souls Themed Cafe opens up in Tokyo

Posted by Alex Wolfers on 12 January 2014 - 03:12 PM in The Café

Dark Souls-themed cafe opened in Tokyo, Japan on Jan. 6 and allows customers to step into the world of Dark Souls – the cuisine at least.

The cafe is a collaboration between Australian-themed OZ cafe and Dark Souls developer From Software and features a menu inspired by the game. Customers can order Estus(beer), roasted mushroom people(sauteed king oyster mushrooms) and ring of stone(onion rings).

Food isn't the only part of the Dark Souls experience at the cafe. Check out Kotaku's photo gallery to see the cafe's atmosphere.

Dark Souls released for Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3 in September, 2011 in Japan and October, 2011 in North America. Dark Souls II releases for PC, Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3 on March 11 in North America and on March 13 in Japan.

 

When folks say "Japan has everything" they really aren't messing around. Hopefully getting a table won't be as hard as beating the game LOL

#266165 Retro might work on future Miyamoto game

Posted by Alex Wolfers on 12 January 2014 - 03:07 PM in Wii U Games and Software

 

This is from the latest issue of Official Nintendo Magazine.

http://nintendoevery....o/#more-147200

http://www.officialn...magazine.co.uk/

 


We consider Retro as part of the Nintendo family and a very capable game development studio. As a Nintendo development team, they will keep working not only with SPD, but also with the teams in Kyoto. They might even work on a title that Miyamoto-san leads directly in the future.

“However, the SPD team assigned to Retro is working together with them as a single team and I hope that will continue this way- on Mario Kart 7, for example, SPD staff were involved as co-ordinators. I am saying this because a very interesting and stimulating chemical reaction occurs when the two parties from different languages and cultures are united under Nintendo’s game production philosophy, and that chemical reaction results in extraordinary ideas.”

“Tanabe-san and his team at SPD are our primary contacts at Nintendo. Please let me be clear: games developed at Retro Studios are a collaboration between members from Retro Studios, SPD and other entities throughout the Nintendo family. It’s a symbiotic relationship that consists of members from all over the world; we are very honoured to be working with such a talented team.

When we worked on Mario Kart 7, we were working on Tropical Freeze at the same time. Part of the team was working on creating assets for Hideki Konno’s group, the Mario Kart team, and part of our team continued making progress on Tropical Freeze in conjunction with Tanabe-san and SPD.

I'm rooting for Star Fox

#266164 Sega confirms Alien Isolation not coming to Wii U

Posted by Alex Wolfers on 12 January 2014 - 02:56 PM in Wii U Games and Software

The reasons this game is not coming to the Wii U is simple...

1. It's not just by Sega. The other company doing this is the folks who have worked on those broken Total War Games on PC.Never touched Nintendo.

2. It's not like this is a platformer. These games simply don't sell on Nintendo systems in the first place. Sega's not going to lose money on something that wouldn't work on a Nintendo System.

So you cant thro0w up your hands and say Sega abandoned Nintendo because that is not true.



No. It's clear that Nintendo's marketing doesn't quite work this time. A lot of people still think that the Wii U is just an addition to the original Wii, even more people are fixated on the idea that the Wii U isn't 'next-gen' and all.

A new Zelda or Metroid game could theoretically raise the sales significantly for a short period of time, but that wouldn't be enough to turn the console's fortunes around. Not without proper marketing.

 

Looks like crap anyway



You mean Gearbox?

Correction: The company is Creative Assembly. I did research and their not even that great of a company. No loss.

I was in hiatus at that time I think because you don't look familiar

#265706 Intelligent Systems gets new building for Fire Emblem Success

Posted by Alex Wolfers on 09 January 2014 - 12:45 PM in General Gaming

(Note: this article is from a german site so please excuse any translation errors)

 

A few days ago appeared Photos of Nintendo's new research and development building in Kyoto on ( we reported ). It was one of many measures for the internal restructuring of the Nintendo corporation.

Now we can already tell you about another measure. It's about the studio Intelligent Systems, which since its founding in 1986, not only ranks as Fire Emblem , Advance Wars and Paper Mario has hervorgebrach, but also programmed Developer Tools for Nintendo's consoles. Currently, Intelligent Systems works, which currently includes about 130 employees, with Atlus to Shin Megami Tensei x Fire Emblem as well as a previously unannounced other Wii U game.

So far, Intelligent Systems was housed in the Kyoto Research Institute, one of Nintendo's R & D building in Kyoto, which also includes the Departments Software Planning & Development (SPD) and the Mario Club. Now the very important for Nintendo studio, however, is moved into its own building, which was completed in October 2013. The new property is located near the new Nintendo's main building.

Good for them! I can't wait to hear what that future Wii U title is as well.

#265700 What are you looking forward to at CES?

Posted by Alex Wolfers on 09 January 2014 - 12:40 PM in The Café

Anything robotic related will make me happy.




#265699 Next Level Games Are Now Nintendo Exclusive Devs

Posted by Alex Wolfers on 09 January 2014 - 12:36 PM in Wii U Games and Software

Even though Mach Rider was a dumb game I think if they took the concept and reimagined it they could have a badass IP. One can only dream.




#265697 How would you feel if fast racing neo went multiplat?

Posted by Alex Wolfers on 09 January 2014 - 12:32 PM in Wii U Games and Software

I played one of their racing games on the Wii and it felt like a poor mans F Zero no offense. But that's just my opinion. A lot of people seem to like it.




#265696 Titanfall will have be capped at 6 vs 6.

Posted by Alex Wolfers on 09 January 2014 - 12:30 PM in General Gaming

6 vs 6 is ridiculous! I play COD, Planetside 2 and BF4. 8 vs 8 works for COD, but anything less than that? I just don't know. I think it's because Titanfall has been hyped so much, people were expecting these massive battles with titans, and tons of people (ala Battlefield 2142 or something) and then  "6 vs 6"... WHAAAAAT?! Maybe the way they do it is incredibly epic, but I just don't know. Colour me nervous.

Calm down. Maybe it will be the most epic multiplayer ever despite having only 6v6. No need to jump the gun yet :)




#265694 Wii U is the next Dreamcast

Posted by Alex Wolfers on 09 January 2014 - 12:27 PM in Introduction Central

*puts pitchfork away*

Welcome to the forum mate. Have fun :)




#265693 Colorado sushi restaurant introduces weed pairing menu

Posted by Alex Wolfers on 09 January 2014 - 12:25 PM in The Café

Makes me wonder if there are folks like this now?

#265689 I think Wii U did the impossible!

Posted by Alex Wolfers on 09 January 2014 - 12:19 PM in Wii U Hardware

My prediction is the Wii U will slightly beat the Gamecube or get near the N64 sale range. SSB4 and Zelda U are coming out after all ;)



the sales may go up a bit like with some of the other games releases, but they simply won't be more than double the average sales already, 

 

as i said before i like your optimism, but it isn't realistic for the WiiU to sell 500,000+ for the next twelve months. 

Even with Smash and Mario Kart 8? Are you kidding? It will be in the million range.




#265589 Microsoft is a "total mess" and no one wants to be new CEO

Posted by Alex Wolfers on 08 January 2014 - 08:40 PM in The Café

Hurry up and take their place SEGA! All joking aside I would miss them if they wen't down the crapper. Hopefully someone else could take their place if that happened.




#265588 Titanfall will have be capped at 6 vs 6.

Posted by Alex Wolfers on 08 January 2014 - 08:35 PM in General Gaming

I find it funny how people are freaking out over this. Sure an MMO styled FPS like Destiny would be cool but it's not Destiny after all.



Only this man can say it better. No offense to the people that are disapointed. 




#265587 Nintendo is worth more than sony

Posted by Alex Wolfers on 08 January 2014 - 08:31 PM in General Gaming

Maybe Nintendo's conservatism payed off after all. Good luck finding this on a site like IGN though.




#265585 Sega confirms Alien Isolation not coming to Wii U

Posted by Alex Wolfers on 08 January 2014 - 08:28 PM in Wii U Games and Software

Looks like crap anyway



Man, even SEGA is turning it's back on Nintendo.

You mean Gearbox?
