Does Fire Emblem count?

If so (in no particular order):

Any Fire Emblem game, they're all so good.

Dragon Quest IX, I also really like IV and V, but IX wins it for me.

Any Pokemon game, they're all so good.

Dragonball Z: Attack of the Saiyans (awesome game that not many people know about).

Secret of Mana.

If Fire Emblem doesn't count (again, in no particular order):

Dragon Quest IX.

Any Pokemon game.

Dragonball Z : Attack of the Saiyans.

Secret of Mana.

The Last Story.

I also very much like the DS remakes of Final Fantasy III, IV and Chrono Trigger. Never got into Mass Effect, reminded me too much of Star Wars Episode 1 (kidding). Oblivion and Morrowind are both great, Kingdoms of Amalur is good. Paper Mario and Mario & Luigi are also great series. But the 5 listed above take the crown.

I always play with the 3D on. The games look better in 3D and I just seem to enjoy the games more when playing in 3D, even the ones where it's entirely pointless. I also never turn the brightness down. I don't get the point if you can just charge it when it runs out.

Plus, reggie just had a HUGE blowout on dk, WITH geof, WHEN he first started teasing about.

Showing dk would be the most idiotic move possible, and with the vgx audience, get nintendo boo'd off stage.

Good. It would be great for Nintendo to show some balls and show Donkey Kong. And I seriously don't get the hate surrounding that game, everyone loved Returns, a sequel therefore is great news. And don't bring up Metroid - I think Retro have made enough of those, four to be precise and more than one company can make Metroid.

I do agree however that the audience of VGX are the kind that would not appreciate something like Donkey Kong (too colourful), I'm thinking it might be X they show.

The vast majority of my personal Wii U library is 3rd Party - 14 out of 16.

I don't tend to get caught up in supposedly bad ports, I just buy and enjoy games. Everyone is so self-righteous when it comes to buying games, then they complain that they aren't getting the ones they want - despite the fact that they aren't buying them. I wonder why I even get involved in online discussions on such a matter, I'm just too neutral and complacent when it comes to games, who made them and what it is like compared to other versions. I'm just happy that I get to play games at all - I consider myself lucky.

I don't think they've ever said Reggie will be making a big announcement. But a new look at an upcoming Wii U game, please don't get your hopes up, the backlash when they show Donkey Kong (which looks fantastic) will be unbearably idiotic.

The Wii U Gamepad is one of the most comfortable controllers I have ever used, I like everything about it.

Well. Isn't this something. PS4 games were always gonna sell well (as it is the launch of the thing), but I completely agree. The UK game market is stupid, I know this first hand being a resident.

I really really want a new Star Fox. But honestly, I think it could be Metroid again.

I'd honestly just consider buying the company for the IPs and let EAD or someone in-house make the games.

 

Pretty sure a few of the people from the N64 games would consider coming back if Nintendo held the reins again.

Indeed. A new Nintendo-made Banjo-Kazooie, Perfect Dark and a new Blast Corps would be fantastic.

Nintendo should buy Platinum, get them to make F-Zero and Starfox. Sega would be good but would never happen, as with Capcom.

I still don't know why people are as excited for this as they are.

There is practically no point in a charged smash against humans. And absolutely no point whatsoever against humans who really know how to play.

You dont use smashes for damage building (exceptions like zelda's up smash) but for knockouts, and charging doesnt increase knock back enough to make the broadcasting of 'hey, you know exactly what im stuck in and how to punish me with impunity!'

Csticking also removes the 'click'
wind up and allow the move to strike instantly, and thus recover faster.

It can also be used for tilts for people who have trouble.

Although c-sticking wont be going anywhere, I guess it will just be called right sticking... Though I admit I wont relish the new position of the stick.

Certainly something a smart 3rd party controller company can take advantadge of.

I have never played competitions (never really want to) and only play the games as party games, I always use charge smash attacks.

the configuration is extremely important. Also, the wii mote has no c-stick so it's at a HUUUUUGE disadvantage just from that alone. I could tell you a couple at's that are impossible or practically impossible to do with Wii mote.

There's a thread about it somewhere on smashboards, I think I even read it once, but I can't find it.

I never understood the c-stick, I always just charge smash attacks, it makes more sense to me to have them as charged attacks to compliment the rest of the normal, quick attacks.

Should Mario retire? What kind of a silly question is that?

Not only does Mario fund Nintendo, each one is fun and unique in different ways. The New Super Mario series is purposely made to be simple and straight up 2D Mario platforming, the New! series really helps fill the time between the 3D adventures everybody loves so much and are every part as much in the 'main' series of games as any other one - not including spin-offs.

Nintendo has said they want to release one New! Super Mario Bros on every console they make, as a safe and secure benchmark game that will sell, yet they still provide fun, and lots of it.

All in all, Mario is Nintendo.

It's a shame, the game sounds interesting. Ah well.

I honestly don't see what you can do on a Gamecube controller that you can't do on anything else. I mean, they all have the same buttons (other than Wiimote on its side). What difference does it make beyond the shape and feel of the controller?

I always used Wiimote+nunchuck for brawl, never had any problems with it.

Why?
you knew what games were coming out and you decided to pay 200 of your American Great British Pounds on it. Or whatever.

You made the decision to rip yourself off is that what you're saying?
Or are you saying that the company deciding to lower the price of their device later on than you bought it is them ripping you off 6 months or however long before?

I'm saying that with the lack of games (I only had 3 since it launched up until October of the same year), the price seemed steep while the Wii U's price did not seem steep and still doesn't.

The fact that they were so quick to drop the price also made me feel ripped off, and by how much they dropped the price.

What were you expecting then? A $2 price cut after 5 year in the market? The Ambassador Program was an exception, this is a completly different situation. You can't just buy a console expecting to have free games after 10 months.

I know the Ambassador programme was an exception, heck, I've even said I don't care that the Wii U won't have one. All I was saying was that I bought the 3DS at launch, it was expensive (perhaps too expensive), and the ambassador games were very nice because I felt annoyed at the large price cut the 3DS received in such a short space of time.

Many times in the past (not necessarily on this site) I have argued that the ambassador programme was a very nice bonus/ exception and that we didn't need one (I know that I posted we needed one for the 3DS - I was wrong to say that).

I never said I expect an ambassador programme for the Wii U.

You shouldn't have bought it if you thought it didn't have enough games to justify the price.

There were at launch, just not in the many months following (delays and the such).

Well, the ambassador programme was needed, I know for sure I felt ripped off about the 3DS after the price dropped. I do not feel ripped off at all with the price I paid for the Wii U, it means I got 10 months of being in a (kind of) exclusive club for £50, what's wrong with that?

According to VgChartz, Wii U lifetime sales are on 4.5 million, half of what Nintendo have forecast for end of March next year. 3DS meanwhile has sold 40.5 million, quite a lot.

Dunno what the percentages mean...

A little more horsepower. Like 3 gigs of ram instead of two or a quad core processor. I dunno. I really like the console the way it is to be honest, therefore the only way it could be "better" is if it had a little more under the hood.

Oh mighty master of  proof. Please explain how come  you are always pointing out excuses made by companies that  hardly even touched the wii u. Oh please show me how amazingly these games were coded to use all cores when they were not. Please show  how lack of load balancing and therefor using less than half the available  CPU power yet still running games that  somehow require a core that runs at double the clock because its so weak. I  grovel at how good you are at explaining and proving points. Lay this wicked believer to rest with more bs. *bow bow*

This is one of the funniest things I have seen on this forum for a long time! Congrats!

The thing is, these threads are getting pretty ridiculous as we already know what the Wii U can do - using pure and simple knowledge and logic.

Iwata said that games such as Assassin's Creed III run using up to 50% of the Wii U's potential - proven by the fact they all seem to use just one of three cores available.

The Wii U is not as powerful as the PS4/Xboxone, but it isn't as far behind as people like to think.

But please carry on the pointless arguing, it's funny to see everyone ignore what everyone else has to say.
