the nintendo newtwork logo is for miiverse, sorry :/

Really? I could have sworn my 3DS copy of Kid Icarus has the Nintendo Network logo and has nothing to do with the Miiverse that I'm aware of.

So is there a list of games with online play out there?

Is there a definitive list of online Wii U titles? I was a quite disappointed to see the Nintendo Network logo on Nintendo Land game box, yet it has no online gameplay that I am aware of. I certainly hope that Nintendo doesn't consider the Miiverse an "online feature" worthy enough to stamp that NN logo on the cover for individul games? I think a Miiverse logo would be much better suited for such instances to diffuse confusion amongst consumers looking to make an in-store purchase decision.

Edit: "(Miiverse chat = Nintendo Network logo?)" added to thread title.

Yep. The fixed Ninja Gaiden 3 release with the inclusion of Tecmo's Dead or Alive's Ayane character and Bayonetta 2 in the Wii U launch window surely represent some new brave form of Nintendo.

All they need to do now is reform the international Club Nintendo stores to reflect the awesome Japanese exclusive shop items and I'll accept that "Heck" has officially frozen over.

What does the Bayonetta Wii U exclusive release mean to the gaming world as a whole? I played the Bayonetta demo on 360 awhile back and never gave the game much thought. Seemed like it had double jump, and a weird middle-aged teacher looking witch protagonast. The shooting was somewhat like the Capcom game titled Devil May Cry.
Fast forwad to now, this title appears to have caused a huge uproar in the gaming community for being a Wii U release. Does a middle aged witch really mean all that much to the gaming balance? Will this exclusive risque title change the public view on Nintendo's post SNES staunch standards? Last I remeber, Conkers Bad Fur Day (N64), PN03 (GC) and No More Heroes (Wii) went into the sleeping night without much notice.

Am I in love with this title? No.
Is it a "good" move for Nintendo? For sure, if they can check their heart at the door and let the market decide they will have the answer in sales numbers good or bad.

I say let the good and the bad flow, the original Sony Playstation had no chance at surviving and we are now faced with... yep.



Third party titles matter. Lets pray that Nintendo understands why the SNES/Super Famicom was so wonderful. Freedom. Not just a little filtering, but total freedom.

It's not the few key titles that make or break it, but the mass appeal to develop for the "willing" console. As long as consumers and developers both plan for Wii U, the Wii U will flourish in both.

There are classic movies on DVD format, and there is rubbish. The DVD format did not flourish because of said rubish... But hey, it didn't exactly hurt the format either!
If the little guy JVC with "no chance" (VHS) could beat the big bad Sony (Beta), why can't it happen again?

Beta tapes, Super Beta, UMDs...Sony Memory sticks over SD cards?????
I'll stick with the Wii U.
