#66108 "Nintendo working on at least three new franchises for the Wii U"

Posted by jono on 13 March 2012 - 01:37 PM in Wii U Games and Software

As far as the three new IPs go, I predict:

Miyamoto's new IP

A Monolith soft RPG

A downloadable game

Although, if downloadable games are not included here, I'd say it's a Retro title, though I'd rather they work on starfox or Zelda.

My guesses are:
Wii U Sports (golf, baseball from e3 2011)
Wii U Play (catch mii, battle mii, etc. from e3 2011)
??? Miyamoto's new game ???


Hopefully they don't include Wii ___games as new IPs!


#66167 What do you really want to do with WiiU

Posted by jono on 13 March 2012 - 07:09 PM in Wii U Hardware

I want to play incredible games for hours on end.


#66168 When do you think the Wii U will Launch?

Posted by jono on 13 March 2012 - 08:06 PM in Wii U Hardware

OK, so, there's been some discussion about when the Wii U will launch. As someone who plans on getting it at launch, I'm pretty interested about this. Personally, I think it'll launch in either late august-September. I have 2 reasons for that.

1. They were trying to launch it in 2011. It was just pushed back because they wanted to focus on the 3DS in 2011. If they were already making plans to launch it in 2011, having another 8 months to get everything ready seems like it'd be pretty simple.

2. This is my main one, though. Assassin's creed and medal of honor are both confirmed for an October release, and both are confirmed to come to the Wii U. Because of this, it makes me think that Nintendo would want to release their system before these games start rolling out, so they won't be late to the party. If they launch it a month before that, they'd have a steady stream of content between their launch lineup and the November lineup (which is always awesome).

That's why I think it'll launch in august or September. When do you think it'll launch?


#66386 What will Ur username be in Nintendo Network for the Wii U?

Posted by jono on 15 March 2012 - 12:35 PM in Wii U Hardware

Jono, with different variations of "81" surrounding it depending on what's taken.


#66387 "Nintendo working on at least three new franchises for the Wii U"

Posted by jono on 15 March 2012 - 12:42 PM in Wii U Games and Software

Star Fox by years end?
I dream of such a dream, but the reality is much more harsh. :(


Not if Retro's making it!


#66418 How many

Posted by jono on 15 March 2012 - 03:09 PM in Wii U Games and Software

more than any console in history has ever had at launch, thats how many


I'd prefer to have a great launch and a steady stream of content coming out afterwards rather than a spectacular launch and then nothing.


#66422 What Do You Think Retro Studios is Making?

Posted by jono on 15 March 2012 - 03:17 PM in Wii U Games and Software

Retro is probably Nintendo's most renowned first party studio that isn't EAD (they created Metroid prime Trilogy and Donkey Kong Country Returns for the few that don't know). I'm curious what you guys think they'll make next!

I'm thinking a Star Fox or maybe a Zelda. Though, with the recent rumor that Nintendo has 3 new IPs in development, it makes me wonder if Retro's working on one of them. I'd like them to make DKCR2 first, honestly, but that's definitely not happening right now :( Anywho, what do you guys think?


#66459 What name do you choose in Loz

Posted by jono on 15 March 2012 - 05:36 PM in General Gaming

Jono, of course! Sometimes I go as Einstein, though, because the dialogue can be pretty funny (especially in beginning when people are telling link to get up).


#66468 Monster Hunter plus wii-U equal success?

Posted by jono on 15 March 2012 - 06:44 PM in Wii U Games and Software

I get the impression MH does much better on handhelds then on consoles. Plus production values are lower. I doubt we'll be seeing one on any future consoles, just a lot of different games for the Vita and 3DS.


#66516 Retro Studios leaked game pics?

Posted by jono on 16 March 2012 - 06:03 AM in Wii U Games and Software

New IP or Zelda. Perhaps Raven Blade.


#66536 The Last Ranger

Posted by jono on 16 March 2012 - 09:45 AM in Wii U Games and Software

http://www.siliconer...he-last-ranger/

Nintendo filed a trademark titled "The Last Ranger". While it isn't confirmed, it's looking pretty believable to me. I'm pretty interested in what it could be; a Pokemon ranger sequel? A new IP? Maybe even a Dillon's rolling western sequel! What do you guys think?


#66541 The Last Ranger

Posted by jono on 16 March 2012 - 09:57 AM in Wii U Games and Software

Holy crap demon training I'm all over that! XD Hmmmm I think it's a new ip if it's real.


Haha, yeah, the name alone makes me want it.


#66542 -

Posted by jono on 16 March 2012 - 09:59 AM in The Café

Neither am I, I'm Australian :3 I'm interested though because from what we see in the news it seems like America is full of mega-conservative fundamentalist Christians D:(


What's wrong with being a conservative christian?


#66571 The Last Ranger

Posted by jono on 16 March 2012 - 12:34 PM in Wii U Games and Software

Oh man, I really hope this is a new Wii U IP... Also, could "Nintendo Game Front" possibly be related to Wii U's online in some way?


That's what I've been thinking. It sounds like it could be the demo section of their E-store, or something.


#66596 Hidden meaning behind being a Nintendo Fanboy...(maybe just me)

Posted by jono on 16 March 2012 - 03:50 PM in General Gaming

I have to live off of allowance. Thank goodness I'm getting a job during the summer for all of the games coming out!


#67553 Rumors about Retro's new game

Posted by jono on 23 March 2012 - 10:56 AM in Wii U Hardware

What would we want Retro to do, which could involve crowns?


A crown on an adventure to find a king in the magical land of HappyTown!


#67554 New Darksiders II HD Gameplay

Posted by jono on 23 March 2012 - 11:05 AM in Wii U Games and Software

I never played the first one, but have been following this game to death (pun intended) and am going to get a Wii U at launch to play this game immediately. Like Joshua, it seems like a game I would really enjoy.


#67614 WiiU game prices

Posted by jono on 23 March 2012 - 05:36 PM in Wii U Hardware

How about they let the publishers decide? Some games deserve to cost $60, while others only deserve to cost 50. I think publishers should decide for every individual game.


#67745 WiiWare Sequels on U-Ware

Posted by jono on 24 March 2012 - 10:41 AM in Wii U Games and Software

The original WiiWare service had a lot of hidden gems in it's library. The few I've gotten have been incredible. We already know about two WiiWare games almost definitely getting sequels for the Wii U's online shop (Runner 2 and Toki Tori 2), but after the recent rumored list for the U-shop that has even more sequels to WW games (Fluidity: Toxic, for example) it made me wonder what other games should get sequels.

I want Motoheroz 2 and Jett rocket 2, personally. What about you guys?

#67776 WiiWare Sequels on U-Ware

Posted by jono on 24 March 2012 - 12:20 PM in Wii U Games and Software

Fluidity 2 and another Lost Winds sequel!

Day one buy :P


If Nintendo makes their store better, I wouldn't be surprised if the lost winds developers decide to give it another go. I don't think kinectimals was very well received. :P


#67970 Silicon Knights working "On IP that's are most requested" for nex...

Posted by jono on 25 March 2012 - 09:37 AM in Wii U Games and Software

If it is Eternal Darkness they are doing, we can check mark it off from the possible Retros Studio's next game list.


Thank goodness!


#68376 Sega and Capcom?!?!

Posted by jono on 28 March 2012 - 04:04 PM in Wii U Games and Software

Sonic and Sega all stars racing 2 is another one. (not confirmed, but it's probably coming)


#68603 General Wii U E3 2012 Discussion

Posted by jono on 30 March 2012 - 12:11 PM in Wii U Hardware

As tron said..... A LOT.

The first thing they need to do is seal the deal with the 3DS. Announce tons of release dates for already announced games, and then announce a couple of AAA releases for the holiday season and beyond. We know they have at least Mario up their sleeve in that regard; they probably have at least one or two more they're ready to announce.

But the big thing is the Wii U, obviously. Specs need to be heavily detailed. A ton of first party games need to be shown, some big name franchises (like Mario) and some new ones. Third party games need to be a big part of the press conference; show off actual trailers for some of them, and not just a video showcasing a dozen or so of them (though they can do that as well). The launch lineup needs to be shown, not just hinted at. Have a roundtable discussing the online features and games, showing that Nintendo's truly getting aggressive in the online space.

There's probably something else important, but I dunno what that would be.


#68670 Dreamcast Virtual Console

Posted by jono on 30 March 2012 - 08:20 PM in Wii U Hardware

Gamecube games are confirmed for the Wii U's virtual console. I think they should also put Dreamcast, and if possible Saturn, games on the VC as well. What do you guys think?


#68910 Will RE6 come to Wii U?

Posted by jono on 01 April 2012 - 11:07 AM in Wii U Games and Software

Totally! The two biggest third party games Ninty needs to get on the Wii U this year are RE6 and GTA5. They'll beg capcom to put it on the Wii U if they have to.
