#179469 Worry about the Wii U? Read this

Posted by dustinb12 on 05 March 2013 - 12:53 PM in Wii U Hardware

nice find. i must admit i keep getting a sinking feeling about my beloved nintendo, starting when i read the last page of the last Nintendo Power. obviously they've been playing catchup for a long time but now it seems like they've just lost touch.  i was 5 when the NES came out, was completely captivated from my first time playing SMB, and have been playing almost only Nintendo games ever since.(27 years of loyalty) Now i have a child of my own and i tried to turn her on to the 3DS, and she opted for the IPOD touch. she does enjoy the occasional mario party, kart, nintendoland sessions. Nintendo is missing that magical connection it used to have. If a Pokemon is the answer, crank one out and then try something new and fresh maybe. I will be heartbroken the day i have to play Zelda on a PS something or other




#165526 How is Skyward Sword?

Posted by dustinb12 on 01 February 2013 - 02:24 PM in Wii U Games and Software

im currently replaying Twilight Princess now, and if you didnt like it, you probably won't care for SS. I like it overall, but here are some dislikes i had: the motion controls were forced on you most of the game, there were times Link was very hard to control, the game is a little long. Now here's the real deal: if you are a real Zelda fan you're gonna love it for the story. It was absolutely stunning. The music was great, they added a few rpg elements that i liked. bottom line, if you didnt like TP and you don't have a lot of time to spend on a Zelda title, you may want to put this one on the backburner for a little while. But i wouldnt



#257598 Super Mario 3D World receives 8 10/10s, get hype

Posted by dustinb12 on 23 November 2013 - 11:06 AM in Wii U Games and Software

i am so disciplined, i made my wife get it today, wrap for christmas without me even seeing it. and i preordered. but for real, this looks like it could be the best ever and I'm scared I might not finish WW HD. i am shocked at all the 10/10's though

#252914 Rumor: Nintendo bringing “Super Mario 64 reUmagined” and other updated classics

Posted by dustinb12 on 24 October 2013 - 05:52 AM in Wii U Games and Software

Double Dash and SM Sunshine would make more sense.(and me happy) Think of the colors and sounds of Sunshine in HD. It doesn't matter, i'd play 64 again if the controls get tighter




#216977 What would have happened had Nintendo done another Wii?

Posted by dustinb12 on 07 June 2013 - 02:22 AM in Wii U Hardware

of course id buy it. who cares about the OTHER consoles?(sorry). yes ive been very disappointed by the cheaper games i got on the wii, like ghostbusters and wwe 13, but i love nintendo and must have all things mario and zelda. over the years ive been tempted to get a different console, but it would be just to play the batman and star wars games i missed. oh well, a trip to Hyrule always cured those ills!




#249327 Super Mario 3d World Nov 22

Posted by dustinb12 on 02 October 2013 - 09:23 AM in Wii U Games and Software

i cannot wait, i've been waiting a looong time for floating Peach to come back. im more excited for this game than any other 




#242536 wii u ambassador program

Posted by dustinb12 on 29 August 2013 - 04:04 AM in Wii U Hardware

idk, call me humble but buying games for 30 cents was pretty sweet of them. i racked up and still haven't played them all.




#179597 Gamecube Virtual Console Suggestions

Posted by dustinb12 on 05 March 2013 - 04:00 PM in Wii U Games and Software

#201594 Wii U impressions from older gamers?

Posted by dustinb12 on 29 April 2013 - 12:56 PM in Wii U Hardware

30+ here to say i was just discussing this with the wife yesterday. she bought me a pro controller for xmas and i've yet to use it at all. we only have a couple of games for it. here are the issues for me: just now getting VC which i play more than anything on my 3ds and things are a little pricey (understandably so). for injustice with the guide was nearly $100. for me thats way too steep for a game that only i will play. there also just isnt much going on with it yet, like they said "here is the wii u. its HD". my score is 7/10 for now, but after i get my mario kart/party and zeldas and hopefully something fresh im sure the score will go up to a 10. being an "older" gamer, i have seen this many times from nintendo over the years. Id blame ipads and iPhones for the way gaming is going nowadays, not nintendo




#184634 What HD remakes of nintendo games do you want on wii u?

Posted by dustinb12 on 20 March 2013 - 02:07 PM in Wii U Games and Software

Maniac Mansion! Super Mario Bros. 2(USA). Castlevania 2 Simons Quest. and Pacman of course




#260040 3DS vs WII U

Posted by dustinb12 on 09 December 2013 - 07:37 AM in General Gaming

you obviously like sports(hockey player), so i would start with a 3ds, mario kart 7, mario tennis, and look into Luigis Mansion.  my only problem with the wii u is noooooo…….Madden, Ncaa football, wwe 14 (sports games). good luck




#255550 What do you want for christmas this year?

Posted by dustinb12 on 11 November 2013 - 07:15 AM in The Café

if i can't get world peace, maybe Santa could get his elves to make me a special wii u copy of wwe 14




#194847 What do you predict the next 3D Mario and Mario Kart will be?

Posted by dustinb12 on 15 April 2013 - 07:13 AM in Wii U Games and Software

for the next mario I'm really hoping they revisit Isle Delfino and give me a new Sunshine. (not a remake.) The sun and sounds would be awesome in HD, but i must admit a Galaxy would sound and look great also. As for Mario Kart, id like to see Mario Kart Complete. Allllll the tracks, plus new ones and at least 50 characters. I want to race with a pianta or a goomba. And of course please bring back the riding partners from Double Dash! Also one of my biggest gripes on MK wii was you had to unlock all the goodies alone. In DD this could be done with 2-player, which is kind of the point of these games




#248176 Wind Waker HD - Who's playing?

Posted by dustinb12 on 26 September 2013 - 01:36 PM in Wii U Games and Software

to the folks who have never played it before: you are going through the same things i did 10 yrs ago. "How could i like a game like this?" i played some parts for my wife and became instantly hooked. this became my favorite game ever, i never bought another playstation or any other brand console, and have since collected all Zelda titles in some form or fashion and beaten them all. some a few times including Windwaker. I  have a few tattoos due to this game as well. Long story short, this is a fantastic adventure that will suck you in. You will be emotionally involved and not disappointed imo. All this for a game in which characters don't even talk!

 

And to answer the question: oct 4 it's on




#254506 What games do you want nintendo to bring back?

Posted by dustinb12 on 04 November 2013 - 06:48 AM in Wii U Games and Software

obviously metroid, star fox and f zero would look great on this console, but my real answer is Maniac Mansion. look it up

#263145 In Store Wii U Shopping

Posted by dustinb12 on 24 December 2013 - 09:23 AM in Wii U Games and Software
