#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. 




#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. 




#314343 NPD May Top 10 Best Selling Games in US (Splatoon #5)

Posted by Marcus on 14 June 2015 - 05:23 AM in General Gaming

I assume these figures aren't particularly meaningful give that the game came out at the end of the month?




#316626 RE:Revelations 2 - Multi-Lingual Physical Release

Posted by Marcus on 16 August 2015 - 02:00 AM in General Gaming

I'd seen that. Such a weird arrangement. But better than nothing I guess. If the port reviews well, I'll definitely get it. For saying the Vita was almost made for shooters, there are a depressing lack of them on the platform.




#316655 RE:Revelations 2 - Multi-Lingual Physical Release

Posted by Marcus on 18 August 2015 - 10:36 PM in General Gaming

My desire to play Xenoblade Chronicles on the gamepad ended up overwhelming my need for a shooter. Especially with Mario Maker coming out so soon, I don't think I'll have time for this :-| Probably wait for a sale.




#313205 Fast Racing NEO Still Wii U Exclusive; Multiplayer Included

Posted by Marcus on 24 May 2015 - 04:57 AM in Wii U Games and Software

Weren't these guys threatening a video at some point? 




#315619 New trailer for a Wii U game

Posted by Marcus on 30 June 2015 - 02:29 PM in Wii U Games and Software

Interesting game. Looks pretty ambitious for an indie!




#308720 Bravely Second Now Bravely Second: End Layer, DLC And Cover Art Revealed

Posted by Marcus on 11 February 2015 - 05:09 PM in General Gaming

Pretty sure a western release is coming. If I recall, Bravely Default actually sold well in EU and NA.

 

Yep. The non-Japanese sales outnumbered the Japanese sales by a fair way. We'll almost definitely be getting this. Now we just need them to announce FF Explorers and DQ7.




#315784 Doom 4 - First Footage

Posted by Marcus on 04 July 2015 - 09:26 AM in General Gaming

Haven't played a Doom game since Doom 1 back in the early 90s. I did enjoy that this actually looks like those original games though, in its pace and style. Just ridiculous kinda Mortal Kombat style gore, which is an important part of any civil society :-)




#316693 Freedom Planet on Wii U - Delayed Indefinitely

Posted by Marcus on 22 August 2015 - 12:59 PM in Wii U Games and Software

I dislike the word "indefinitely" here.




#314344 Ratchet and Clank PS4 reveal gameplay

Posted by Marcus on 14 June 2015 - 06:14 AM in General Gaming

Lol "Knack was an abortion".

 

Never thought I'd come across that use of the word.




#309535 Wii U SRPG Liege (If you like Fire Emblem)

Posted by Marcus on 23 February 2015 - 04:14 PM in Wii U Games and Software

Yeah, I just saw this posted on Vita sites. I'll almost definitely get it, although probably the Vita version, as it does tick a lot of my boxes.

The art style is great and the environmental design reminds of something like Final Fantasy tactics, which is a surefire way to grab my attention certainly.

My only negative so far is that the combat looks rather dull.




#309221 How A Zelda Dungeon Is Made

Posted by Marcus on 18 February 2015 - 08:16 PM in General Gaming

Look there's no secret to what makes a good Zelda Dungeon, it takes plenty of patience and creative ideas.

 

Haha it also takes specific ideas.




#313689 You Can Create “My Castles” In The New Fire Emblem For Nintendo 3DS

Posted by Marcus on 02 June 2015 - 03:12 PM in General Gaming

As unbearable as that girl's voice was in that video, this looks like a rather nice addition.

 

I too enjoyed Colony 6 as a sidequest. Great idea.




#312203 Splatoon Wii U Bundle with Nintendoland too..

Posted by Marcus on 21 April 2015 - 04:42 PM in Wii U Games and Software

They better advertise the hell out of this on TV

 

I dunno about TV but it's been pretty much the most common Ad I've seen on gaming websites this week!




#310864 Official Nintendo Software Emulation Question

Posted by Marcus on 22 March 2015 - 05:15 AM in Wii U Games and Software

I'm not an expert on such things but I would've thought the technical barrier to emulation is actually tied to the fact that dedicated hardware-based functions are just in principle faster than software. Rather than people just struggle to efficiently reverse engineer the software. Although obviously that does play a part too.




#316495 English Xenoblade X footage

Posted by Marcus on 08 August 2015 - 04:05 PM in Wii U Games and Software

Cool stuff. Although doesn't really matter that it's english with them yapping away for the whole thing!




#313869 Wii U/3DS Rodea story details

Posted by Marcus on 04 June 2015 - 07:30 PM in General Gaming

Hmmmmmm a story, eh?




#316206 Resident Evil Revelations 2 Coming to PS Vita August 18th

Posted by Marcus on 23 July 2015 - 08:19 PM in General Gaming

It reviewed ok. Metacritic 75.

 

Ok so it'd be nice if they got back to the standard of RE4. But given how few shooters there are on the Vita, I'll take a 75 if this version scores as highly.




#315929 New 3DS games

Posted by Marcus on 09 July 2015 - 05:57 AM in General Gaming

It's not really worth getting for the upgraded processor and memory. That seems like it'll probably just be a gimmick at this point.

The c-stick works well in quite a few games though! And the stable 3D is excellent.




#315886 How many hours have you played?

Posted by Marcus on 07 July 2015 - 03:51 PM in Wii U Games and Software

So you either play a lot of multiplayer CoD or you're insane (the singleplayer campaign was like 6 hours long)!




#316130 Legend of Kay debut trailer

Posted by Marcus on 17 July 2015 - 03:51 AM in Wii U Games and Software

Wow it is £15. That's pretty awesome. I'll just wait for a few reviews to check it's not an absolute mess, then I'll definitely be getting this! 




#316145 Super Mario Maker Discussion - Hands-On Impressions (Wii U)

Posted by Marcus on 20 July 2015 - 09:01 AM in Wii U Games and Software

I find myself agreeing with whats-his-name in the gamexplain video. This started off as a bit "meh" for me, but they've really piled on the cool features that it looks like it'll be quite good.

I might get just for the sake of playing other people's levels tbh.

 

And yes, I am also affronted by the racism. It's why my well-known character avatar just avoids having skin altogether, best to avoid offending people with such things.




#316203 Resident Evil Revelations 2 Coming to PS Vita August 18th

Posted by Marcus on 23 July 2015 - 06:19 PM in General Gaming

Same date for Europe too.

 

Sad there's no physical but I'll definitely be getting this, unless it turns out to be the worst port in history.

 

Such a lack of shooters on the Vita, for saying it's perfectly made for them.




#316204 Nintendo & Facebook Come Together for Super Mario Maker

Posted by Marcus on 23 July 2015 - 06:34 PM in Wii U Games and Software

Having a limited release schedule really does make Nintendo go full-on with the marketing. I hope they do the same for Xenoblade X, that game deserves big sales.
