#216248 Microsoft: Forza 5 runs at 60 fps, Xbox One has no fps/resolution requirements

In better news, A Link to the Past 2 will run at 60fps, with 3D on.




#247907 What I dislike about the WiiU

Posted by Happy Monk on 25 September 2013 - 05:20 AM in General Gaming

Well said....

 

I've logged 300 plus hours on my Wii U since April.  I've spent about $900 total- giving me 18 games.  This was a great investment- I still have a lot of games that I haven't even really played all that much.

300 hours since April? that's a lot. I doubt I've used it as long as that, and I've had it since Christmas... I personally have 8 games on the Wii U (10 including eShop games) but there are 16 in my house as I share the console with my brother.




#257758 Fighting Games

Posted by Happy Monk on 24 November 2013 - 02:13 PM in General Gaming

Tekken, Soul Calibur (1+2), Street Fighter, Dead or Alive and Smash Bros.

Dragonball Z Bodukai Tenka'ichi 3 (on the Wii) is the best £25 I have ever spent.

But Tatsunoku vs. Capcom is fun also.

Not really bothered by any others.

Posted by Happy Monk on 07 June 2013 - 07:46 AM in General Gaming

Woah! that game requires tons of power.

More than Goku.




#247245 New Wii U owner here. One Question

Posted by Happy Monk on 20 September 2013 - 03:26 PM in Wii U Hardware

5. I know two people who are getting the ww bundle.

I know one person getting the Wind Waker bundle, and me and my cousin already have one.

 

Therefore, only 8 people own a Wii U.

Posted by Happy Monk on 23 April 2013 - 04:14 AM in Wii U Hardware

It's just an update, you've been waiting this long, surely a few days won't hurt.




#254889 Woo hoo they just announce Marth for Smash bros Wii U

Posted by Happy Monk on 07 November 2013 - 06:47 AM in General Gaming

In Brawl, Marth was my second - just behind Ike. So glad he's in this one again.




#262620 Are you a satisfied early adopter?

I'm very satisfied.




#243424 What did you play in August?

Posted by Happy Monk on 01 September 2013 - 08:33 AM in Wii U Games and Software

I didn't play the Wii U for two weeks during August (holiday). So my time won't be that high.

I'll post later when I can be bothered, but I do know Black Ops II has the highest.




#221086 Most impressive of E3

Posted by Happy Monk on 13 June 2013 - 09:48 AM in General Gaming

Honestly? It was pretty close for me but Mario Kart 8 wins. I am looking forward to that game so much!

 

Close seconds: Mario 3D World, Smash Bros (both versions), Yoshi's New Island and X.




#199286 Next Xbox to be Revealed on May 21st

Posted by Happy Monk on 24 April 2013 - 12:55 PM in General Gaming

Even though I know I won't get the new XBOX (or PS4, Wii U only for me), it will be interesting to see what route they are taking.




#236204 Nintendo Reports A Profit Despite Wii U Shifting 160K In Three Months

Posted by Happy Monk on 31 July 2013 - 11:54 AM in General Gaming

#236352 Nintendo Reports A Profit Despite Wii U Shifting 160K In Three Months

Posted by Happy Monk on 01 August 2013 - 07:20 AM in General Gaming

Alph, on 01 Aug 2013 - 12:59 PM, said:*le sigh* I'm not even gonna bother...
The Wii (as in the original one before the Wii U) has sold over 100 million, that is all I was saying. I know the Wii U has only sold 3.61 million... Was it me or you who deserves the sigh?




#236319 Nintendo Reports A Profit Despite Wii U Shifting 160K In Three Months

Posted by Happy Monk on 01 August 2013 - 01:37 AM in General Gaming

100 mil is A LOT! I think you've mistaken thousands for millions. The Wii U has only selled 3.61 units worldwide as of the end of June according to Wikipedia. Although, I wish it shipped 100 mil this early! XD

I know 100 million is a lot, it really is quite the achievement.




#279687 Check Out This Epic Monster Hunter Frontier GG Trailer

Posted by Happy Monk on 03 April 2014 - 10:39 AM in General Gaming

Monster Hunter 4 looks better than this. In pretty much every way.




#280572 Check Out This Epic Monster Hunter Frontier GG Trailer

Posted by Happy Monk on 09 April 2014 - 05:27 AM in General Gaming

Sony Never funded anything. MH was just on playstation because of the install base, and then on psp because it was the only handheld that could handle the platform.

Nintendo however, did persue capcom for monster hunter, and got exclusivity for the next few mainline new titles.

I didn't say Sony has funded it, just that either them or Nintendo are the only companies besides Capcom I could theoretically see funding Monster Hunter.




#278982 Check Out This Epic Monster Hunter Frontier GG Trailer

Posted by Happy Monk on 29 March 2014 - 11:55 AM in General Gaming

Is this on Wii U? I can't remember...




#205061 which publisher/developer do you guys hate the most?

Posted by Happy Monk on 08 May 2013 - 03:11 AM in General Gaming

Why exactly?

Because they suck.




#243208 Infinity Ward says the Wii U Version of COD Ghosts is not Current or Next-Gen

Posted by Happy Monk on 31 August 2013 - 03:59 AM in Wii U Games and Software

Well, it seems like the best case scenario. Let's hope it is!




#200190 More light on Nintendo's E3. Adam Sessler.

Posted by Happy Monk on 26 April 2013 - 01:40 AM in General Gaming

To be honest, the only thing Nintendo need to do is spend a lot more in advertising. I'm guessing that at least 99% of the population in the UK doesn't know the Wii U exists, despite most of them probably owning Wiis. Just throw a few adverts out and consumers will come. They could put an advert for the Wii U during the ad breaks for Britain's Got Talent and many many people will then be aware of the console and start wandering into game shops to ask about it.

If 10% of the population of the UK knew about the Wii U, sales will generate by themselves and word of mouth.

More to the point. E3 won't win anybody not in the know about videogames over, they do not watch it. It could however win over people who do watch E3 and have been unsure about the Wii U.

Last point, Nintendo does have games to show at E3 (this point should be very clear to anybody paying attention), they have a new 3D Mario game, Mario Kart and Super Smash Bros to show at E3, indeed, they have already said they will show these games at E3. Those 3 games alone will generate huge amounts of hype and newfound buzz (and therefore sales) for the console.

Posted by Happy Monk on 15 March 2014 - 01:16 PM in General Gaming
