Posted by Marcus on 09 July 2015 - 05:42 AM in Wii U Games and Software

There's an apt summation!




#312558 Mario Kart 8 update 4.1 is now live

Posted by Marcus on 02 May 2015 - 03:44 AM in Wii U Games and Software

Oh bloody hell, I just spent half the week unlocking the damn thing. 




#313688 Nintendo E3 Rumors, Grain of Salt But Good Read

Posted by Marcus on 02 June 2015 - 03:10 PM in E3 2015

Why would Gamespot know anything about E3? This happens every year, loads of fake rumours just come out in June.

 

These would be pretty great though. A new 3D Mario especially would be desirable. 3D World and 3D Land were great fun but very generic. Didn't leave much of an impact.




#313695 Are 3rd parties heading back to Wii U?

Posted by Marcus on 02 June 2015 - 03:49 PM in Wii U Games and Software

It's mostly indies you're talking about. Wii U is still doing pretty good with those. We've got Mighty No.9, Bloodstained and Yuka-Laylee all fairly big indie games on the way. Hugely looking forward to the latter 2, not sure about the first. Looks a bit dull so far.




#314117 Kotaku - 70 hours with Xenoblade Chronicles X is "boring"

Posted by Marcus on 10 June 2015 - 06:21 AM in Wii U Games and Software

Yeah, I don't know how anyone could find the original Xenoblade boring at all. So much to do in such an incredible world.




#314103 Kotaku - 70 hours with Xenoblade Chronicles X is "boring"

Posted by Marcus on 09 June 2015 - 11:18 PM in Wii U Games and Software

Well I've seen this article linked to on 3 different forums. Add that to the fact it's Kotaku, I think you've got an explanation.




#315620 Devils Third. Bad news for US Wii U owners

Posted by Marcus on 30 June 2015 - 02:34 PM in Wii U Games and Software

Why would they think it'll do better in Europe than the US? Only a few games do.




#312182 Earthlock Wii U RPG

Posted by Marcus on 21 April 2015 - 08:08 AM in Wii U News

Game looks pretty good from where I'm sitting. I imagine it's quite a task to create a full 3D RPG with these visuals when you're an indie group.

My only worry is that it'll be a bit simplistic. Story wise and gameplay wise. Hope they prove me wrong.

 

 

 

it doesnt look that bad, but surely will not be as good as skies of arcadia

the characters on skies of arcadia are badass, these ones kind of feel like meh, i see no determination on their eyes(well maybe the girl passes but her eyes look cold instead of determined)

 

This could be posted on every new game thread!!




#310264 eShop WayForward sale March 12 - 19, three games 75% off

Posted by Marcus on 09 March 2015 - 03:02 PM in Wii U Games and Software

I don't really know what Mighty Switch Force is, but at those prices.. haha. I agree that Shantae still seems a little steap.

 

Mighy Switch Force is a fairly light pick-up-and-play puzzle platformer that I thought was really quite excellent. It's only downside is that it's fairly short (e.g it takes about 1/100th of the time of Pushmo to complete, a game at the same price). But when you've got 1&2 available so cheap, definitely go for it! They're the kind of game you'll probably blaze through but after you've finished them and left them for 6 months or something, you'll be up for playing them again.




#309541 Darksiders or Castlevania being teased...or something else

Posted by Marcus on 23 February 2015 - 05:51 PM in General Gaming

Darksiders 3 please! Although I'm guessing it'd skip the Wii U.




#311977 Unity support coming to New 3DS

Posted by Marcus on 13 April 2015 - 05:07 AM in General Gaming

Great news but I wonder why just the New 3DS. That's a big install base they're missing out for the original 3DS. Could be up to 60-70 million by the end of its life. Whereas the New 3DS will probably be less than 10 mil.




#312478 May 2015 and June 2015 Games

Posted by Marcus on 29 April 2015 - 04:52 PM in Wii U Games and Software

Haha one game per month. Good old Nintendo.

 

I'm def getting Splatoon. Maybe Legend of Kay too actually, it's quite cheap.




#314003 Splatoon Sales Figures From Japan / MK8 1mil

Posted by Marcus on 08 June 2015 - 02:29 AM in Wii U Games and Software

Wow more than 3D World is a surprise. Congrats on creating a successful new IP Nintendo. You should try it more often.




#309606 Teslagrad’s Wii U retail release

Posted by Marcus on 24 February 2015 - 07:41 PM in Wii U News

I hope this doesn't become a habit. Smaller games should stick to digitial imo.




#309616 Teslagrad’s Wii U retail release

Posted by Marcus on 25 February 2015 - 04:22 AM in Wii U News

Why? I collect physical games and they are only doing this after they had enough success to print physical. Also it already is a thing. rain on PS3 is Physical. Strider on PS3 is Physical. Journey went Physical. Ducktales Remastered went Phsyical. These all went physical after they had enough success on digital. Why is it a good thing to restrict it if they can do it?

 

Not to mention the game already became Physical on PC.

Mostly because it leads to them costing more, which granted might decrease over time. But I've seen a few developers who released physical versions all say that they make more money from digital because of all the other guys who take a cut with the physical. Personally, I prefer money going to the developers than to some faceless publisher who just does the menial task of creating the physical item.




#316532 Splatoon Leak? Octolings Playable? New Maps, Weapons..?

Posted by Marcus on 11 August 2015 - 01:57 PM in Wii U Games and Software

The bridge level looks cool. More level variety is what this game needs!




#316498 Xenoblade out now on Eshop (Europe)

Posted by Marcus on 09 August 2015 - 07:35 AM in General Gaming

It's weird that the regional differences carry over onto the digital stuff too. I wouldn't have thought there'd be any reason to have the US release be later.




#315782 Never Alone and the need for Natives in games

Posted by Marcus on 04 July 2015 - 08:57 AM in General Gaming

Lol you might wanna append "Americans" to that. I'm european! We are the natives :-)




#316207 Never Alone and the need for Natives in games

Posted by Marcus on 23 July 2015 - 08:25 PM in General Gaming

No because that  Native "American" part is an insult. They were here before "Murica. Many of them hate the American part added. They are Native to this country and land.

 

You need words for things. "Native" is a general term and won't mean the same thing elsewhere in the world. Americans might want to call them natives. But I'm not american. If I said that, no-one would know what I was talking about.




#313207 Lego Jurassic World- Confirmed for June 12, 2015

Posted by Marcus on 24 May 2015 - 06:27 AM in Wii U Games and Software

Haven't played a LEGO game since the original Star Wars ones. They any good nowadays? The only one that's really appealed has been City undercover. Although I avoided that cos of no off-tv play.




#308612 Nintendo eShop – Moon Chronicles Episodes 2, 3, 4 Launch Trailer

Posted by Marcus on 10 February 2015 - 06:43 AM in General Gaming

I haven't. :( . EU will be getting iron fall though this Friday! NA hasn't been announced with a specific date.

 

I think I saw a NA date on their most recent tweet or press release. Something like a week or 2 behind europe. 




#309267 Would you like Nintendo to get into VR again?

Posted by Marcus on 19 February 2015 - 12:42 PM in General Gaming

I think Nintendo should just wait and see what happens with VR. It could be a game changer. It could end up being a temporary fad like motion controls. 




#311727 Level 5's: The Snack World (N3DS/IOS/Android

Posted by Marcus on 08 April 2015 - 05:32 PM in General Gaming

What exactly happened to Wonder Flick, Level 5? Haven't heard anything about that for about 2 years.




#308608 Nintendo eShop – Moon Chronicles Episodes 2, 3, 4 Launch Trailer

Posted by Marcus on 10 February 2015 - 05:26 AM in General Gaming

Anyone heard anything of a EU release date? It'd be nice to have had this available in time for the New3DS




#313377 Lego Jurassic World- Confirmed for June 12, 2015

Posted by Marcus on 26 May 2015 - 11:46 AM in Wii U Games and Software

I enjoy the Lego Batman series, Lego Movie Video game was pretty good too. I haven't played Marvel Superheroes yet but I plan on getting Jurassic World, simply because i love the franchise. It looks quite fun.

 

A lot seem to be fairly scripted and linear movie tie-ins. I know City Undercover wasn't, obviously. Am I right in thinking one of the Batman ones was open-world too?
