#131435 Is the "hardcore" label being used wrong?

Posted by hohi on 17 November 2012 - 11:01 AM in General Gaming

Naaaw its got more to do with what amount of games you buy I reckon.A hardcore gamer maybe buys six full price retail games in a year maybe.Someone who buys 1-3maybe casual?4-5 maybe above average.6+ hardcore just speculating like

I buy a minimum of 4 retail games every week, this week alone I bought 16 retail games...

Does that means I am Super Ultra Ultimate Hardcore Gamer?

My definition of a Hardcore Gamer: Someone who plays games as part of their lifestyle, not as just a thing to do when bored. Someone who plays all sorts of games and is always first in line and at midnight launches to pick then up. Hardcore gamers span multiple generations and never forget the games that got them to where they are. Hardcore gamers passions go beyond just the game to art books, figures, and other tie ins. We are passionate fans, which is Why I always say Nintendo fans are some of the last hardcore gamers around. Keep gaming my friends.

Hit the nail but I disagree with going to midnight launches part because there are some people who won't be able to attend it due to several reasons.

#128531 Best selling game

Posted by hohi on 13 November 2012 - 05:59 AM in Wii U Games and Software

IMPOSSIBLE, on xbox AC 3 sold 1,6 Mil and 1,5 in ps3 in the first days ( 70 mil consoles each of install base ) , they can be thankful if they sell 300k on the wii u launch but its very unlikely

That's why I said I am not sure it will sell more than 1M copies. Most probably, it will sell less than 500K but there's always a chance that it might exceed 1m because there are people who are waiting to get the Wii U version instead of 360/PS3 version.

And never said never.

Nintendoland and NSMBU will easily sell 1m copies.

Zombi U and Assassin's Creed III has a good chance to sell well, but I am not sure if AC III can sell more than 1m copies.

Moreover, I don't think Mass Effect 3 and Batman AC will sell a lot on Wii U especially with the release of Mass Effect Trilogy on other platforms and Batman AC is already out since last year.

#117599 Games series that U hate

Posted by hohi on 14 October 2012 - 02:21 PM in General Gaming

I still prefer the old Resident Evil and Final Fantasy series but not the new ones such as RE 5/RE 6 and FF 13/ 13-2 (Even though I like Lightning, but I don't like the game).

#117345 Games series that U hate

Posted by hohi on 13 October 2012 - 09:55 PM in General Gaming

I don't hate COD as a game, but I hate those COD Fanboy who only played FPS games and acted like a hardcore gamer while dishing Wii and other games like Mario, etc.

#117344 Trade Xbox 360 for Wii U games?

Posted by hohi on 13 October 2012 - 09:49 PM in General Gaming

Since you mentioned it crashes couple of times then it would be better to sell/trade in the console. And save some money and get Xbox 360 slim in the near future.

#117326 What Nintendo Land game are you looking forward to most? + General Discussion

Posted by hohi on 13 October 2012 - 08:44 PM in Wii U Games and Software

I already tried Donkey Kong, Animal Crossing and Luigi's Mansion so I am looking forward to try F-Zero and Metroid.

#117323 Wii U Demo Kiosks Debuting at Best Buy October 17th

Posted by hohi on 13 October 2012 - 08:40 PM in Wii U Hardware

Yeah, but I was talking about in stores, I'm not paying like upwards of $100 to try a few Wii U games.

It was $40 for the general admission ticket not $100. And you were not only able to try Wii U but also many other games unless you are not interested in other things except Wii U then it's a different story. But then $40 to try Wii U only is still worth it imho.

Not only I was able to try many games and also Wii U, but I also met Charles Martinet.

#117321 My Thoughts on Wii U 3rd Party Support

Posted by hohi on 13 October 2012 - 08:31 PM in Wii U Hardware

^ I am not a fanboy but it would be pretty funny IF they went bankrupt just because the failure of Wii U. Still remember how the Virtual boy's failure? And with the success of Nintendo DS, Wii and now 3DS, I don't see why they would go bankrupt suddenly due to one console's failure unless they spent every cash/too many debt/etc on Wii U then it is possible.

Tbh, I am more concern on Sony's future than Nintendo's.

Anyway as for the 3rd party support, it's really hard to say as of now because we didn't have any solid fact about the Next Xbox and PS4.

#117315 Wii U Demo Kiosks Debuting at Best Buy October 17th

Posted by hohi on 13 October 2012 - 08:22 PM in Wii U Hardware

Any word of any kiosks coming to Australia?

Australian already had their chance to try Wii U.

I tried it last week at EB Games Expo in Sydney.

#117314 Gamecube/Wii games you want in 1080p Full HD on Wii U

Posted by hohi on 13 October 2012 - 08:20 PM in Wii U Games and Software

There are way too many GC & Wii games that I would like to see in HD but my top of the list is still Xenoblade Chronicles.

#117205 Do you really want the deluxe?

Posted by hohi on 13 October 2012 - 01:44 PM in Wii U Hardware

I think I have said that I cannot see myself playing Nintendoland for more than 5 hours before. But after the EB Games Expo 2012 last week, I changed my mind completely and really interested in this game even more than ZombiU. I also tried ZombiU at the expo and it didn't impress me (Maybe my expectation for the game is just too high), but hopefully it was just an old demo.

#109002 Wii U Price Discussion

Posted by hohi on 17 September 2012 - 08:02 AM in Wii U Hardware

It's hilarious looking at the old posts on this thread of people going back and forth about the price, and calling it the "Wii 2".

There is one of my friend who keep saying "Wii 2" instead of "Wii U". Whenever I told him that it's Wii U not Wii 2, he said it's the same anyway.

As for the price, I think it's pretty cheap ($299 & $349 in NA and $348 & $428 in Australia).

#108388 My Reaction To Bayonetta 2 Exclusive to Wii U

Posted by hohi on 16 September 2012 - 03:21 AM in Wii U Games and Software

Love this one xD

#108379 What games did U pre-order?

Posted by hohi on 16 September 2012 - 01:53 AM in Wii U Games and Software

I have yet to preorder any games and the Wii U Console as I am still waiting for a better deal (I don't think it will be sold out in Australia in the next few weeks).

But I am interested to get:

1. Zombie U
2. NSMB U
3. Assasin's Creed 3 (I was going to choose between the PS3/360 version, but I guess I will get it on Wii U instead)
4. Ninja Gaiden 3 (Damn, can't wait to play as Ayane >_>)
5. Lego City - Undercover (Looks pretty funny, not sure if this is launch title or not)
6. Bayonetta 2
7. Monster Hunter 3 Ultimate
8. Black Ops II (I am not a fan of call of duty and battlefield, though I do play FPS games but I will give it a try)

#108376 Will I still be able to get a premium?

Posted by hohi on 16 September 2012 - 01:41 AM in Wii U Hardware

What I meant to say is, we don't have a GameStop in NZ lol

Preorder it from EB Games?

#108374 Launch Day Advice

Posted by hohi on 16 September 2012 - 01:38 AM in Wii U Hardware

I have never go to any midnight launch (I normally preordered the game/console and got it the next day or at launch day). But because I am working till late night, I do have some advice for you.

It's much safer to go to midnight launch if
1. You or someone drive (Even if the place is pretty close, unless the game store is only next to your house xD).
2. Bring friends with you.

If you're underage then it would probably better if you get it the next day. It's not worth the risk going out at night even if you're not underage.

#108364 Why Wii U is Expensive.

Posted by hohi on 16 September 2012 - 12:23 AM in Wii U Hardware

There are lots of people complaining about Wii U's price and said why people should buy PS Vita instead because it's cheaper and better deal than Wii U xD

I personally surprised that the premium pack is only $428 in Australia, I thought it would be at least $450-550 lol...

By the way, I am getting the premium pack at launch day ^^

#88781 Wii or 360?

Posted by hohi on 19 June 2012 - 05:33 PM in General Gaming

It depends on what consoles you have right now. If you owned a PS3 then you should go for Wii. If you owned a Wii then get a 360

#88780 We know who won E3 2012 (Ubisoft), but who ultimately Lost?

Posted by hohi on 19 June 2012 - 05:22 PM in General Gaming

@WisdomPowerCourage:

People tend to forget that Skyward Sword, Ocarina of Time and StarFox were released less than a year ago (Even though Ocarina of Time and StarFox were only remakes/ports). And we already know they are making Super Smash Bros, the only thing we need to know from Nintendo is the release date and gameplay.

I think some fans were expecting new Metroid game considering its 25th anniversary last year thus they were once again disappointed with Nintendo for not announcing any new Metroid game.

#88552 We know who won E3 2012 (Ubisoft), but who ultimately Lost?

Posted by hohi on 18 June 2012 - 08:21 PM in General Gaming

Microsoft lost the e3 again.

On the other hand, Ubisoft won this e3 followed by Nintendo and Sony.

For me Nintendo came 2nd behind Ubisoft. I know some people said Nintendo lost e3 because their expectations were way too high for Nintendo. Moreover, I think that they have a pretty solid line up for Wii U even though I am not interested in getting Sing, Just Dance or other ports like Arkham City since I already owned that game on my 360.

While Sony.. well, it wasn't that bad but they still couldn't convince me to get PS Vita. And that WonderBook and Book of Spell bored me to death.

#88236 PS3 Owners- What's a good game to start with?

Posted by hohi on 17 June 2012 - 05:02 AM in General Gaming

If you really like Uncharted then you will probably like The Last of Us (It's not out yet though). The new Tomb Raider (it's not out yet) also looks promising imo.

Some Japanese games that you might be interested in:

Bayonetta
Final Fantasy 13 (Play this one first before getting FF 13-2)
Valkyria Chronicles 1
White Knight Chronicles 1
White Knight Chronicles 2
Atelier Meruru The Apprentice Of Arland
Atelier Totori The Adventurer Of Arland
Atelier Rorona The Alchemist of Arland
Tales of Graces F
Tales of Vesperia
Tales of Xillia (JP Version)
Yakuza 3
Yakuza 4 (And one more Yakuza dead souls if I am not mistaken)
