It should have a great and interesting story like Majora's Mask. And free exploration like NES Zelda. That's all I ask for, graphicswise, I think the colourful style of MM put a great overall feeling to that game. The graphics of TP were really boring, I think. Could have been any generic adventure game with that style, didn't add any feeling.

I would just make good games for it - without compromising to please an audience or increase sales.

In the preview he said "Every moment I spent playing Tropical Freeze was incredible fun", and the rest of the preview was spent talking about how much and why he wanted Rare to make another game. So this 5/10 seems wrong.
So it turned out to be 6/10, and the "bads" were: 1) "Dull, derivative level design" (basically the opposite of what every other reviewer is saying) 2) "Employs some cheap and frustrating platforming tricks", which means, if you read the review, that you can't just rush through the levels à la Rayman or other "modern" 2D platformers, but actually have to stop and think/change your strategy. 3) "Harsh checkpoints during boss battles"(!) Well, I shouldn't even comment on that. But... no, I won't.
I haven't played the game, but this review is bad. For another review, on the other end of the negative/positive scale, which I actually felt was informative, see GameXplain, who says it's the best Wii U game so far:

Eurogamer needs to stop flip-flopping. One minute Nintendo is totes doomed lol and nothing can save them, next they're saying X is the most anticipated game of 2014. Make up yer minds guys.
The first statement is about commercial failure, the second statement is about a good game. There's no contradiction there.

So in your opinion because other companies i.e. Sony and Microsoft are giving gamers what they want, Nintendo should give gamers what they don't want? Nintendo should spend a tonne of money creating hardware and controllers that gamers don't want just to be different? Right...
No. What I said was that Nintendo shouldn't give gamers what they think they want, but what they never imagined they wanted.

I'm not sure I will be buying any new games this year since I'm buying a house and that's going to leave me broke (even more so) But if I can I'd love to pick up a copy of Bayo 2 and X along with Mario Kart and Smash Brothers. Let's hope.
Try to haggle the price for the house down by $500, then you can use that money for games with good conscience!

Anyone ever draw up thier own maps as a kid? Used to do tis in the 80's and 90's. (esp for Zelda NES if you didn't have the POWER) Most kids did. I still have my OoT paper I wrote all the songs on before I had the guide. Some games like the SEGA Master System game Miracle Warriors came with a large map. Not as some bonus no. They didn't do that then. The map was needed to play the game. MW might be best described but still a crude comparison,the Skyrim of its day. The map was so massive and came with a figure. It was so as you played the game you move your figure to where you are in the game so you know where you are. No pressing B for map then 
. Game is probably more well know for it's nude green demon woman artwok in Japan. Game was out in the US but had typical SMS art.
I still do this when playing old games that don't automatically map for you. The most recent example is Mother 1.

I am speaking about worldwide numbers for December: http://www.vgchartz....13&console=WiiU
In 2012 Wii U did: 17,775,117
In 2013 Wii U did: 1M+ (vgchartz info lacks the final week of december).
It`s about a 700k fall.
If you look at Xbox 360 1st december and 2nd december, it goes from 824k to 2M.
PS3 numbers are: 857k to 2.5M
In 2012, Wii U was a new system. I agree 1M isn't very good for december sales, but it isn't completely horrible either, and the sales during most of 2013 were completely horrible, mostly around 100k-150k/month worldwide. As for 2014... my guess is better than 2013, but not great.

Nope it did not. It was unprofitable so they scrapped plans for a sequel.
It is the best selling 3rd party title for the Wii U. It has sold more than half a million, about the same as Pikmin 3, WW HD and Lego City undercover. If Ubisoft didn't make profit out of that title, they did something seriously wrong. It wasn't exactly a high-budget game either. Ubisoft is lying about ZombiU.
Edit: Here's an article about this: http://gaminrealm.co...iu-performance/

well all Wii U games are great but what lacks Wii U 1st party games is variety.
When will there be a Wii U shooter or a 17+ adventure ( infamous ) ?
Till now most of Wii U first party games are targeted at family or teens but when will there be a first party game targeted at Mature audiences
.
If you by "mature" mean 13-year-olds, then never. But most of their games appeal to me as a 35-year old. I do miss games that really target us adult people however. Complex games wich really deal with issues interesting to us - I mean, compared to the film world, there are tons of games like the most popular stupid action films, but none like more serious films. But this is true for all game companies, not only Nintendo.
