1. The loneliest number.

What? I'm not even talking about space....

If there is to be a Tales representative, I'm almost positive Cress Albane from the first game on SNES will be the one. But that's if we have a Tales representative.

Smash Bros. Wii U is being co-developed by Namco Bandai, and is a "big priority for the company", Tekken producer Katsuhiro Harada can confirm.

In an interview with NowGamer, Harada explained the true scale of Namco's massive joint effort with Nintendo.

"Obviously it’s a big priority for the company," Harada explained, "so company-wide there are a lot of people involved with that particular project. Not just from Tekken but a lot of our franchises. "

Harada continued, "Although our main core staff is busy with Tekken Tag tournament 2 and trying to finish that up, I do think we’ll support the initiative in some kind of capacity."

We also asked Harada if he knew of any Namco characters who would be appearing in Smash Bros. Wii U.

Harada responded, "That question was one of the most frequently asked questions we got when we announced the project. Especially from abroad."

"The fans, rather than asking about Tales or Gundam, or some of our other franchises, the fans abroad saw Tekken as one of the key words and took off on that."

"We’re not really sure at this moment but when thinking of the playerbase who is playing Smash Bros, maybe Tekken characters is something they wouldn’t want, so I’ve been pulling back on that a bit. But I don’t know."

We'll have more on Smash Bros. Wii U as it happens.

I say NO to Tekken characters. Tales! Tales! Tales!

They'd tone her down, like they did with Snake in Brawl. Keep in mind that SSB is a teen-rated franchise, too.

Snake doesn't have a sexual appearance. It's easy to tone someone down by preventing them from using overly-violent animations. Besides, Bayonetta wouldn't be Bayonetta if she couldn't do half the things she does in the game, so she'd be a wasted character. Snake doesn't have to use guns to be Snake.

And you don't need to tell me SSB is teen-rated. Smash gets its rating by the violence, not by the content.

Bayonetta would be cool, but she's too suggestive.

In order to save some character slots, some of the clones should be made alternate costumes.if we really want more variety with characters, this would have to be a sacrifice. Meaning Lucas, Falco, Wolf, etc won't have an adjusted moveset to their counterpart. It will purely be aesthetic. Ganondorf would need to have his own set since he isn't related to Falcon. This leaves room for new characters, plus makes it easier to balance the game without having too many variations of one moveset.

I'm hearing about a few problems with the GamePad, one that stands out the most is a dude on the IGN forums who had the image of the last game that he played burnt into the screen, kinda like the problems consoles have with plasma screen TV's

What a way to start Wii U Day, huh? That really sucks, but at least he can replace.

If it's $250-300 my cheap radar will go off and detect that this probably isnt gonna be a very powerful machine.

so even though i dont want to pay more than $300 at least i would know that its actually gonna be pretty damn strong in the hardware department if its more that $300.

This is a good point.

Thing is, Nintendo goes for the innovative factor before graphical. HD graphics is really an incentive to Nintendo, but they know SOME people care more for graphics than gameplay, so they try to net a bigger audience this time around. If the Wii U is even on par with PS360, it would mean using older technology and not really costing that much to manufacture each console.

A new system using older technology shouldn't have to be pricey to say much.

Sensitive replies in this thread?


Anyway, more power to Gearbox and Wii U. Not too much a fan of Aliens, but I have watched the movies.

Thanks, Trick. If online is great, I will add it to my U library. It sounds cool. I would look up vids but I am on my phone.

Three 3s? Jeez.

I don't know much about it. Anyone explain the game in a nutshell? Convince me to play it because I love online multiplayer!

Wow, okay. Now, I'm glad I'm getting this for christmas, hopefully all this will be solved by then.

Yea, so get to it, Nintendo. Stop wasting your time foruming and fix the problems.

it was supposed to be Adventure 3.

This is the truth, right here. It WAS supposed to be SA3. But they tried to give it a revolutionary aspect by simply calling it "Sonic the Hedgehog", as if it were to be the start of a new beginning. I'm a hardcore Sonic fan, but the game had no potential except it having nice graphics and good music.

It was never intended to be Adventure 3, it was always considered a reintroduction for the Sonic series for next gen. Every press release and interview stated this. The only reason why it is like adventure because they based it on what was considered the best sonic gameplay at the time (Unleashed gameplay didn't happen yet in 2006). Because of this spiritual succession in gameplay, it is considered by some as Sonic Adventure 3 when really it was not.It was merely a failed attempt at a reboot to refresh Sonic for next gen. That's all. Unleashed would've been Adventure 3, but they changed their mind and made it what it is today.

I would much rather they wait a while before releasing sonic into next gen next time so they can get used to the hardware, and so that the game doesn't end up getting rushed to meet a Christmas curfew.

I was speaking figuratively. Of course it wasn't SA3, but like you said, the re-introductory attempt failed. It might as well have been SA3.

Evidently, people are really bent out of shape because the Wii U isn't the best piece of machinery.

Hey, Mangina. Gratz on your Wii U.

To answer the mic questions, a guy on Youtube was able to use headphones with mic and he was able to voice chat with the mic on those headphones. Which means you don't need an uber expensive headset.

Well this thread has nothing to do with graphics its about the CPU so your post was kinda odd.

But like you said, CPU outout can have an effect on graphics how a developer may make a game.

Meh. I ain't no power freak like some people. If Wii U can have games even with PS360 graphics, I would be satisfied. I dunno why people expected Nintendo to dish out extreme graphics that could beat Durango and Orbis. It's innovation Nintendo cares about.

This isn't about the GPU this is about CPU of the system two different things one is visual and the other(CPU) well can affect visual also affect gameplay itself.
GPU from everything that been said is great .

Right... I know this, so what are you telling me, exactly.
