Okay, I'll confess...

 

I don't have all 97 of them.

#167228 [Photo] Wii U GPU Die

Doh! I was posting Jim Morrison's(Chipworks) comments and completely missed 3Dude's post. My bad.

Nintendo sure loves their custom designs. Fourth Storm, over at NeoGAF, said that someone from Chipworks would be able to help decipher the chip even further. Hopefully, we'll get more info soon.

#160301 What is your favorite gaming system?

Posted by Crispy Bacon on 17 January 2013 - 12:02 PM in General Gaming

NES for me. So many fond memories and so many great games. It will always be #1.



#174535 Need for Speed: Most Wanted U [Criterion 'definitive' version]

Posted by Crispy Bacon on 22 February 2013 - 12:31 PM in Wii U Games and Software

New Wii U demo:



Looks really good!



#176741 Exactly how large is the power gap between the Wii U and the PS4?

Posted by Crispy Bacon on 26 February 2013 - 03:22 PM in Wii U Hardware

Posted Image VS Posted Image

as much as i love the wii u, this is pretty telling.


This just tells me the power gap will be much closer than Wii---->PS3/360. Both look great.



#174568 Need for Speed: Most Wanted U [Criterion 'definitive' version]

Posted by Crispy Bacon on 22 February 2013 - 01:50 PM in Wii U Games and Software

I will sya this looks better then the other console releases but definitive version? A racing game that seems to have a 30fps cap is the definitive version as apposed to an uncapped frame rate on pc.... really?


They probably meant definitive console version, not the best version out of all the platforms.



#176016 Exactly how large is the power gap between the Wii U and the PS4?

Posted by Crispy Bacon on 25 February 2013 - 10:25 AM in Wii U Hardware

I expect the gap to be decent, but nothing compared to Wii--->PS3/360.



#176765 Exactly how large is the power gap between the Wii U and the PS4?

Posted by Crispy Bacon on 26 February 2013 - 03:52 PM in Wii U Hardware

Both demos are clearly scripted, but Zelda is running in real-time. As far as the other? Not sure.



#174551 Need for Speed: Most Wanted U [Criterion 'definitive' version]

Posted by Crispy Bacon on 22 February 2013 - 01:09 PM in Wii U Games and Software

this looks interesting! when is the demo coming out?


Not sure. If we get one, I'd guess early March.



#176778 Exactly how large is the power gap between the Wii U and the PS4?

Posted by Crispy Bacon on 26 February 2013 - 04:05 PM in Wii U Hardware

The Zelda demo was running on target hardware back in 2011, which is not representative at all of the final hardware.


Oh yes, I'm aware. :)



#171056 Need for Speed: Most Wanted U [Criterion 'definitive' version]

Posted by Crispy Bacon on 13 February 2013 - 09:38 AM in Wii U Games and Software

Color me quite impressed. It's refreshing to see a developer put forth the effort to demonstrate that the Wii U is clearly more capable than the HD twins. I will reward this effort by picking up the game upon release.



#219212 Nintendo Direct discussion

Posted by Crispy Bacon on 11 June 2013 - 06:49 AM in E3 2013 Archive

That was so disappointing. I don't even know what to think right now......smh




#176676 PS4 launch=Wii U price cut?

Posted by Crispy Bacon on 26 February 2013 - 01:10 PM in Wii U Hardware

Once Nintendo releases their big-hitters, console sales should grow considerably and stay steady. Instead of price cuts, Nintendo should just release compelling bundles with different software and accessories. The Zombi U bundle that was released in Europe and the one that just came out in NA is a great start. Wish they would've had the NA bundle at launch. Definitely would've picked it up.



#162202 Wind Waker HD Screenshots

I want this NOW....all over my face!! Looks beautiful!! And off-TV play??? Yes, please!!!!



#174072 Playstation 4 officially announced, thoughts?

Posted by Crispy Bacon on 21 February 2013 - 09:38 AM in General Gaming

I had trouble watching the conference, but I managed to catch some clips from the event. I'm excited. Sony's going all out with this thing. The specs are quite beastly, so I'm really curious to see how they price this thing. E3 will be exciting.



#221827 The Wii U should have been as powerful as the Xbox one.

Posted by Crispy Bacon on 14 June 2013 - 01:54 PM in Wii U Hardware

Mario Kart 8, Bayonetta 2 and X look absolutely insane. I have no worries. And this is just the beginning. Nintendo's output will only get better. If third-parties put in the same effort with their offerings and truly take advantage of the U's capabilities, Wii U will stand tall and proud. Sure, the other machines have more under the hood, but the Wii U has shown that it can produce some amazing results. It's all about the games and Nintendo always delivers. I tremble in excitement and anticipation for Metroid and Zelda. I can't wait!



#174086 Ps4=Wii U in graphics IMO

Posted by Crispy Bacon on 21 February 2013 - 10:06 AM in General Gaming

I think most of the Nintendo fans here also have more then one platform. :)


Yep. :) Got a Wii U day 1 and plan on getting a PS4 day 1 as well. Still waiting to see what Microsoft shows us.



#174112 Ps4=Wii U in graphics IMO

Posted by Crispy Bacon on 21 February 2013 - 11:17 AM in General Gaming

Funny thing is, that for a lot of players it seems to be a taboo for having more then one console. It's either Wii U or PS4/PC/Nextbox, but not both... :P


Don't understand why, to be honest. I know pricing is a huge factor for some and, that alone, keeps many gamers from being able to purchase every console within a given generation. However, if you can afford it, I say go for it. More options never hurt anyone and you get the best of all worlds.



#174076 Ps4=Wii U in graphics IMO

Posted by Crispy Bacon on 21 February 2013 - 09:49 AM in General Gaming

PS4 clearly has the advantage, but I don't think the power gap will be as large as Wii---->PS3/360. I can see a situation where Wii U=low/medium PC settings and PS4/Durango=High/Ultra PC settings. We need to see a full-fledged AAA game built from the ground up for Wii U to get an idea of where it sits tech-wise(I'm looking at you, Retro).



#168199 Even Rayman Legends Creator Protesting Wii U Delay

Posted by Crispy Bacon on 07 February 2013 - 09:45 AM in Wii U Games and Software

I don't know whether to laugh, cry or hurl. I just.....whatever....

“We heard from many Xbox & Playstation owners and Rayman fans who told us they really wanted to play Rayman Legends on their current system. We decided to give the fans what they wanted while at the same time broadening the audience exposed to this innovative and memorable game.”


You know what's funny about this? If Nintendo fans were begging for a particular game to come to their platform, developers and publishers, 99.9% of the time, wouldn't give them a second thought. Yet, some vocal PS3/360 fans manage to get the game put on their respective platforms. Pathetic... People laugh and think it's ridiculous when some suggest that there's a conspiracy against Nintendo. At this point, I don't know what to think anymore.



#168241 Even Rayman Legends Creator Protesting Wii U Delay

Posted by Crispy Bacon on 07 February 2013 - 10:42 AM in Wii U Games and Software

Hey, on the bright side...Wii still have the exclusive demo.


And with limited use. Great... Now I have to spread out my remaining 27 uses from now until September. Thanks, UbiSuck.



#168459 Even Rayman Legends Creator Protesting Wii U Delay

Ouch.... Seems like the devs are upset too.

Better translation

http://www.neogaf.co...&postcount=2201

I completely understand you but you have to understand one thing. This is not a decission taken by the development team, this comes from really really high up, so please don't pick on the game.

If you're pissed, imagine how we feel. Think on the situation, we've been making overtime with this game practically since May preparing E3, and then almost a demo per month (gamescon, Wii U presentation, shops, eShop, etc...) and at the same time trying to actually finish the game. We had a first delay because it was obvious we couldn't finish on time but we gave it all to be there on February. What face do you think we had when the week we had to close the game we're being told it's not going to be released? I couldn't believe it.

For practical matters, you'll have to wait for some months for the game to be released and will most likely serve for more content to be added and do it better. For us, this means we've spent 6 months barely seeing our wifes, kids, and friends for nothing because, after all, such a haste wasn't needed. Believe it, it was a hell to swallow these news.

Even then I'm firm in what I said back in the day, Rayman Legends is an excellent game and will still be, and the team that's making it doesn't deserve to have your back turned on them just because some men in ties one day took a wrong choice. This industry is really that rainbowty




#168273 Even Rayman Legends Creator Protesting Wii U Delay

Posted by Crispy Bacon on 07 February 2013 - 11:34 AM in Wii U Games and Software

Guys... let's stop blaming ubisoft... this is all my fault. Last night I wondered if rayman legends would somehow be delayed, I must have jinxed it.

...Forgive me ;-;


You have brought shame to this family!
