#150475 Aliens Colonial Marines Thread

Posted by Crimson_Engage on 21 December 2012 - 10:10 AM in Wii U Games and Software

Thanks. I was confused.



#150469 Aliens Colonial Marines Thread

Posted by Crimson_Engage on 21 December 2012 - 09:53 AM in Wii U Games and Software

GameStop's site says it comes out 12/31/2013 for Wii U. This can't be right?

It also says that it comes out 2/12/2013 for the 360 and PS3. Not sure what's going on. But if I have to wait for the Wii U version I might as well just buy the game for Xbox. -____-

The Nintendo 64 as the time it was legit!



#148958 Let's Talk IPs!

Posted by Crimson_Engage on 17 December 2012 - 02:52 PM in Wii U Games and Software

Personally, an RTS game would work very well on the Wii U due to the pad.

4. Mario Sunshine (with Mario Galaxy style graphics update)

Aliens: Colonial Marines is coming out next month. It's going to be amazing!



#148959 Just sold my Wii U!

Posted by Crimson_Engage on 17 December 2012 - 02:55 PM in Wii U Hardware

So you sold it because you are impatient? The system JUST came out. Oh well, whatever. Your loss. (of money)

I'll be playing Aliens: Colonial Marines next month.



#149206 Age of wii u buyers

Posted by Crimson_Engage on 18 December 2012 - 06:59 AM in Wii U Hardware

Hello, I recently bought myself a Wii u, and have been having quite a bit of fun with but I was wondering how old are the average buyers. I'm 29 and would like to find some older players to play black ops 2 with

Grew up with NES, SNES, Sega Genesis, N64, Virtual Boy (ugh), Fat Gameboy, PS1, PS2, PS3, Xbox, Xbox 360, Game Cubes, Game Gears, Jaguar, Wii (hated it and now Wii U)

And of course, the hardcore always have a nice high end custom gaming PC.



#149574 NINTENDO TV COMING TOMORROW!

Posted by Crimson_Engage on 19 December 2012 - 09:27 AM in Wii U Hardware

But how can I watch 3 hours of Money Night RAW on the gamepad when the battery doesn't last that long?

#150776 Elder Scrolls on Wii U?

Posted by Crimson_Engage on 22 December 2012 - 10:43 AM in Wii U Games and Software

I'm saying no only because I already have it on 360.



#149251 John Carmack: "A lot of next gen games will still target 30 fps."

Posted by Crimson_Engage on 18 December 2012 - 09:42 AM in Wii U Hardware

unfortunately, I can pretty much guarantee that a lot of next gen games will still target 30 fps.
https://twitter.com/...752127238889473

I kind of expected something like this to occur. I feel that few developers will be able to utilize 60FPS 1080p properly while most developers' games will target 30FPS 1080p.

The guy works in the industry.


He also stated that RAGE would run at 60fps with those amazing textures. No, the game runs at 60fps with garbage textures.



#149687 Wii U gamepads are being sold for

Posted by Crimson_Engage on 19 December 2012 - 01:56 PM in Wii U Hardware

Wii U Game Pads are now available for sale individually in the UK for £89. That price tag translates into $144 US dollars.

http://gimmegimmegames.com/2012/12/individual-wii-u-game-pads-go-on-sale-for-89/



I don't see this price being too justifiable. Now if it could make me some coffee, then ok. This is stupid.



#149695 Wii U gamepads are being sold for

Posted by Crimson_Engage on 19 December 2012 - 02:09 PM in Wii U Hardware

Alright.. here's the catch.






IT HAS A BIG MOTHERhorsing SCREEN ON IT! Was everyone expecting it to be the price of a regular controller? It's common sense, more parts = more expensive.


And? The screen is still made of plastic. (which in this day and age is CHEAP)

Guess, i'll just have to wait for Mad Catz to make their own cheaper version of the GamePad until the Wii U's go on sale.

I suggest everyone take good care of the one that came with the console lest you want to spend a small fortune. Not sure about you, but for me money doesn't grow on horsing trees.



#149692 This is the silliest response from a developer/producer yet

Posted by Crimson_Engage on 19 December 2012 - 02:04 PM in Wii U Games and Software

Everyone bashing Konami need to keep their mouths closed. They are doing what's right for business.

For starters, the Wii U doesn't come with a Pro Controller. They aren't going to make a game for the Wii U when a lot of people don't one a Pro Controller. (their game is designed to utilize controllers like the 360/ps3 not a gamepad)

Second, as someone else stated the Wii U doesn't even have $1 million users. It's an extremely small install base.

Anyways, luckily for me I own all platforms.



#149307 Pokemon Snap + Wii U gamepad = :D

Posted by Crimson_Engage on 18 December 2012 - 01:15 PM in Wii U Games and Software

As a matter of fact it could be far better than the original if you think about it.

1. Make the game open world. Unlike the first game that was on rails and you were stuck in a cart. The second game could be open world and you use the thumb sticks to move around and what not then when you want to take a photo of a Pokemon you just hold up the game pad.

2. Better graphics obviously

3. Since the original Pokemon snap there have been hundreds of NEW Pokemon meaning a lot more content.

4. The gamepad can also be used as the pokedex!



#149292 Pokemon Snap + Wii U gamepad = :D

Posted by Crimson_Engage on 18 December 2012 - 12:40 PM in Wii U Games and Software

Think about it. A Pokemon Snap 2 on the Wii U would be amazing considering you can use the game pad as the camera. I remember when the Nintendo 64 had a special Blue and Yellow Pokemon edition console that came with a copy of Pokemon Snap. Good times!

Any objections?



#152530 Anyone else having this problem with their gamepad LCD screen?

Posted by Crimson_Engage on 27 December 2012 - 08:50 AM in Wii U Hardware Help

Mine has this too on some days and on others it doesn't. Not too worried about it.



#148961 Gamepad Mic question

Posted by Crimson_Engage on 17 December 2012 - 02:58 PM in Wii U Hardware

So I noticed the Gamepad has a built in mic. I only used it once to test the video call thing with a friend.

My question is, how do you mute the mic when you are playing online games? Is there a switch? I know on normal headsets there is a switch on the cord along with volume control. (unless it's wireless)

How would one go about muting his mic so others don't have to hear my dumb family members singing and crap in the background? lol



#148966 Gamepad Mic question

Posted by Crimson_Engage on 17 December 2012 - 03:07 PM in Wii U Hardware

Are you serious? I haven't tried using it in online games so i was just wondering. So let me get this straight You can't even use the built in mic for online games? I have to buy a new headset!?

First, I can't play two players on Mario using one wiimote and the gamepad. I have to have TWO wiimotes, then you can't play Mario or Nintendo Land online despite it being the year 2012. I shouldn't have to leave my house to go play with friends. I'm 26 years old and we work!

Now you are telling me I must BUY a headset? Couldn't the console come with one!? The Xbox came with a headset for crying out loud! And even if I do buy one where am I going to plug it in at? I use the headset port on the top of the pad with my earbuds so I don't wake my gf up at night and headsets like Turtle Beaches are big and bulky to be using with the gamepad.


All of my rage is building up at the moment.

#149252 Why is there no Reset button?

Posted by Crimson_Engage on 18 December 2012 - 09:51 AM in Wii U Hardware

This boggles the mind. I see no logical reason to remove the Reset button or not have one at all. Every Nintendo Consoles (we aren't talking about Handhelds) has had a Reset button.

The other day my Wii U locked up while the Miiverse was loading. I pressed the power button on the gamepad to shut it and the system off and that didn't work. The Gamepad turned off but the console was still on as the display was still on the TV screen. The console was hard locked and I had to pull the power cord out to turn it off.

More bad decision making on Nintendo's part.
