#284474 Why I think QOL is a GOOD idea

Posted by Penguin101 on 08 May 2014 - 02:33 AM in Wii U Hardware

If Nintendo had two or three platforms next generation that would be great

 

1) A hardcore home console compatible with 9th gen handheld

 

2) A Hardcore handheld compatible with  the 9th gen home console (or make a handheld-home hybrid console!)

 

3) A cheap, affordable Quality of Life Platform which relies of innovation over specs 

 

This way Nintendo can go after casuals and core gamers by having more platforms available at different price ranges. This very well could be a return of Nintendo back on top form by not bundling its casual Wii Fit and Brain training packages with its game console - giving those who want Wii Fit a cheaper platform to purchase (let's say 9th gen Nintendo console is $400 (and be fully beefed up), and their handheld is $250 (again reasonably beefy), and their QOL platform could be $100 (be between DS and 3DS spec wise) make and sell like hotcakes. All with a decent profit margin.

 

Thoughts?




#284493 Nintendo spent 100 million on new tech

Posted by Penguin101 on 08 May 2014 - 05:43 AM in Wii U Hardware

Nanomachines...it's nanomachines :P They'll measure your heart rate, blood pressure temperature and directly manipulate your visual cortex for an Augmented Reality experience. Nothing "worn" on the body...Just inside it

Have you seen this? http://sulontechnologies.com/ what do you guys think?




#284497 Why I think QOL is a GOOD idea

Posted by Penguin101 on 08 May 2014 - 05:57 AM in Wii U Hardware

Great idea. Although I don't think Nintendo will price a handheld higher than $199 again.

 

I was also counting on the rate of inflation :)

#284578 The Cortex

Oh completely, this is absolutely an idea that I don't see catching on, unless you're playing augmented laser tag in an arcade

Maybe we'll get Resident Evil 7 for Wii U too.

 

I'm not sure - I'd sacrifice Resident Evil 7* for a true-to-the-original full on Resident Evil 2 remake Wii U exclusive 

 

* (because the series has gone far too downhill for me to buy it unless it's back to creepy rooms where you're anticipating what is around the corner I'm not interested, but I'm not sure about other Resi fans)




#284920 Nintendo Making A New Console!

Posted by Penguin101 on 12 May 2014 - 07:59 AM in Wii U Hardware

My opinion it'll be some crazy single screened mini-tablet that reads your temperature, oxygen levels, and pulse by just you picking it up or it being next to your leg. It will contain brain training exercises and cute little street pass games which you pay with coins when you go jogging. You can input all your information including your love life and health ailments - it'll warn you if you're blood pressure is high or if you are about to have a heart attack and when you streetpass with someone who you are attracted to (in profile) it will allow you to send a message and maybe hook up with them. You will also be able to schedule your entire lifestyle with the help of exercise and dietary suggestions daily and hourly

Luigi's Mansion 3

Metroid Prime

Sonic Boom gameplay

 

Oh Yeah Sonic Boom, would definitely like to see more of that. I'm hoping for a Luigi's Mansion 2 HD ready for Halloween this year! AND I think if there IS a new Metroid: It'll be a November 2016 release date, in the meantime I'd like to see Metroid Prime Trilogy HD while we wait - like Nintendo did with Wind Waker HD. Reminding me of Wind Waker - I'd like some Wind Waker HD DLC - would be nice to have an expanded universe for Wind Waker - possibly in episodic. I also hope for Twilight Princess HD in 2016/2017 ^___^




#284951 PG working on another Wii U title?

Do you think he's trolling or teasing something? :o




#284988 Your E3 2014 Wishlist

Posted by Penguin101 on 13 May 2014 - 12:19 AM in Wii U Games and Software

RE7 is supposed to be returning to the series roots, so that's nice. They proved that they can make a competent classic RE game with the RE5 DLC and Revelations, we'll just have to wait and see if they stick to their word.

 

I don't know RE5 DLC just didn't feel scary, however Revelations was a step in the right direction, I can't trust Capcom after Resident Evil 6, not even Leon's scenario was scary. They need to look at EA's Dead Space, The Evil Within and Resident Evil Remake and combine them together. Maybe even set the next one in an underwater Bio-Lab designed for researching cures to bioweapons but then a virus leaks and you play an IT Technician who starts off with a screwdriver, can hack doors open (with time) and has barely any firearms in the game, he might even start of locking himself in a security cupboard during the outbreak, fall asleep and wake up and everyone's dead (but not for long ;) ) then you spend your time getting to the last emergency escape pod on the other side of the facility. It might even have multiple endings, like there may be points where you have the opportunity to save people trapped and if you do they all take the emergency escape pod giving you a bittersweet ending of being stuck behind while they claim to go and get help, or if you choose to watch them die on the monitors you get the escape pod in knowledge that you let people die. No crazy conspiracy this time - no bad guys, just pure survival and horror (with tiny twists of action occasionally)




#285054 Mario Kart 8 US commercial

Posted by Penguin101 on 13 May 2014 - 02:51 PM in Wii U Games and Software

I love these commercials. Full of humor. I also feel a video like this would be great to see on TV too




#285821 Zelda U possible title confirmed?

Posted by Penguin101 on 20 May 2014 - 01:54 AM in Wii U Games and Software

Also, they've never made a Zelda game that looked worse than its respective tech demo.

gallery_122809_405_23181.png

 

That was a tech demo built in a small area, unless there's going to be load screens every 30 seconds the new Zelda wont look that good. but I'm sure it'll come close with optimisation at 720p 30fps. Plus on top this game is hinted to be a HUGE living and breathing open world. I'm sure that while it wont look as amazing as that for a huge open world game it'll look as good as it can get for whatever art-style they choose. :) I'm hoping for Smah Bros Link/Mario Kart 8 level of detail in character models (good but not PC game at max settings level of detail) and environments HOWEVER with advanced lighting, reflections, particle and fire effects to make things look even prettier. I'm not sure if I'm explaining it right here

 

In English I'm expecting Zelda U to look the best it can be given artstyle, size of game, size of each area before it has to load a new one and hardware limitations. :) As I think when nintendo make a Zelda "the entire kingdom of Hyrule to be 20x larger than OOT, have excellent draw distance and no loading times AND I want an alternate dark world to be displayed on the gamepad etc etc" and the developer will have to optimise around it and make the game look the best it can given the extreme gameplay demands.

Oh and due to TP's size I do believe if they did a TP HD remake for Wii U in a couple of years they could optimise it to look as good if not better than the demo due to the possible smaller size of the game compared to what has been hinted for ZeldaU




#285922 Zelda U possible title confirmed?

Posted by Penguin101 on 20 May 2014 - 11:02 PM in Wii U Games and Software

wouldn't all the tech demos have been built in small spaces?

And why would you ever not want max graphics possible?

 

if everyone did, every Wii U game especially 3rd party ports would look incredible and immaculate. The only Wii U 1st party game I've seen not do as much as I knew it could do is Pikmin 3 in my minds eye. But i felt as it started its life on the Wii and they were getting used to how different HD was I can forgive it.

You can already see the progression on SM3DW and even from there to Mario Kart 8 and Smash Bros, I can't wait to see what they've been able to do with Zelda U ^_^ Especially when they had ages to experiment, so much that they decided to build Wind Waker HD which indicates that the Zelda team are definitely ready to max out the graphics and by the sound of it give us some really unique gamepad and online gameplay 




#285991 Zelda U possible title confirmed?

Posted by Penguin101 on 21 May 2014 - 01:43 PM in Wii U Games and Software

Wait what? I don't get your response.

 

You asked why wouldn't you want any game to be max graphics, If every developer worked on that philosophy then every Wii U game would look amazing. The fact is very few developers do that 




#286050 Hyrule Warriors to be released in Japan - 14th August

Posted by Penguin101 on 22 May 2014 - 02:45 AM in Wii U Games and Software

More screenshots here: http://nintendoevery...0&pageid=160483




#286054 Hyrule Warriors to be released in Japan - 14th August

Posted by Penguin101 on 22 May 2014 - 03:00 AM in Wii U Games and Software

My guess is this is the artstyle for Zelda U, but I'm hoping for more visual details on character models and backgrounds for the main game alongside more impressive effects such as lighting, water, particles, fire etc. But as far as art style this is bang on "not realistic and not cartoony "




#286055 Godzilla!

Posted by Penguin101 on 22 May 2014 - 03:14 AM in The Café

I thought the name of the film was Godzilla, not spend your time with the most endearing boring people on earth with poor acting skills 




#286066 Nintendo confirms NFC figurines for Super Smash Bros. Wii U.

Posted by Penguin101 on 22 May 2014 - 07:05 AM in Wii U News

I'm hoping that they're going to bring out a Mario galaxy 3 style game where you can load characters like Link and even Bayonetta into it. Maybe even allow these figures into Mario Kart and at least some into NSMBU and SM3DW so you pay $12 for a figurine BUT it counts as DLC for lots of nintendo games




#286529 Hyrule Warriors to be released in Japan - 14th August

Posted by Penguin101 on 25 May 2014 - 12:56 PM in Wii U Games and Software

The main difference I can clearly see is the lighting has been overhauled. I do notice other graphical changes. But the difference in lighting really sticks out. Shame I won't get this becauseI don't enjoy this hack n' slash gameplay. Which is why I won't get Bayo2




#287053 Mario Kart 8 Free Mercedes-Benz GLA DLC

Posted by Penguin101 on 29 May 2014 - 07:05 AM in Wii U Games and Software

Do a deal with Universal and give us BTTF DLC - The Delorean in anti-grav mode - beautiful! :D




#287657 What Would You Rate MK8

Posted by Penguin101 on 01 June 2014 - 03:48 PM in Wii U Games and Software

I'd give it between an 8 and a 9 out of 10. There needs to be battle arenas, as local battle mode sucks hard. I'd like to see less or NO coin boxes, there's plenty of coins on the track! I'd like to see further improvements in the future with anti-aliasing and the addition of removing two player split screen. Give us player one on the TV and player 2 on the gamepad. Possibly extend this to 3 and four player mode. I prefer the old style split screen putting player one at the top and player two at the bottom if two player split screen can't be achieved on gamepad and TV (which is dumb since this is one of the cool reasons I support the idea of a gamepad!)

 

I also want to see Smash Kart DLC pack: Starting off with Kirby, Link, Samus and Captain Falcon all with their associated tracks and karts.

 

 Double Dash Mode DLC: Player one on Pro/Wii Wheel) Player two with gamepad in first person mode firing the shells etc. Online and Two Player (Team) only to save the framerate from dying a hideous death.




#287742 Wii U hardware sales up 666% in UK

Posted by Penguin101 on 02 June 2014 - 08:35 AM in Wii U Games and Software

I will wait for the VG Chartz to tell us, but it could mean over 200, 000 sales worldwide for just a few days work!




#287890 Wii U OS 5.0

Posted by Penguin101 on 02 June 2014 - 11:14 PM in Wii U Games and Software

So now the quick launch has been installed, does it now seem loading times are now back to their original 20 second state? Or is there somethingwrong with my Wii U?
