Wii U - thread 3

This looks like it will be the best game on the machine.

[J0e Musashi]

Even better than games that haven't even been dreamt of yet?

[ETC]

Just tried the demo... Its ok. Think it will need an extended play to get it I guess

[nakamura]

I doubt you can really get a game like this with demo play.

too kiddy means it the voice characters were a bit sat morning TV for me!

Good.

I make no apologies for sounding fanboy-ish when I say that I'd rather see NCL go under and die than go multi-platform and prostitute Mario/Link/Samus/Pok?mon with crap software the way that Sega have with Sonic.

That had nothing to do with Sega being 3rd party, it had everything to do with Sega going ****.

They seemed to coincide with each other rather timely though

[nakamura]

Even if Nintendo went third party I cannot see them spamming out rubbish like Sega.

[speedlolita]

They've been hammering the Pok?mon franchise pretty hard in terms of crap software. X/Y should fix that though.

I don't want them to be 3rd party either though. Looking at Sonic now is too painful.

I don't think he has the power to make that decision. Surely the share holders are the ones that he answers too? IF that's what the share holders want, he would have to go with their wishes. Or be shown the door. It's not his company after all

To be fair Pok?mon Mystery Dungeon, Pok?mon Ranger and Hey You, Pikachu! were hardly Nintendo's finest hours. Speaking of dodgy Pok?mon spinoffs, why hasn't a new Colosseum/Stadium game been announced? I want to battle my XY monsters in HD ffs.

I like to think that Shigeru Miyamoto would probably commit harakiri if Nintendo had to start releasing SNES games on iOS.

This Thursdays Wii U eShop stuffs. Nice sale price for Trine 2 Directors Cut.

Wii U eShop
DuckTales Remastered (Capcom, €14.99 / ?13.49) — This classic NES title get the HD remake treatment from WayForward, and those words alone may be enough to have some setting aside some eShop funds. Impressions so far have undoubtedly been positive, with some gorgeous visuals accompanying classic gameplay, but we'll see how the whole experience stacks up in our upcoming review.

Pok?mon Rumble U (Nintendo, €14.99 / ?13.49) — The third entry in this brawling spin-off, this features plenty of mini toy 'mon on screen at once, taking on various monsters in their quest to return to the toy store. This was released with a range of NFC (near field communication) toys in Japan that unlocked characters, and there will apparently be equivalents in North America and Europe. We'll get ready to rumble to bring you a review, soon.

Wii U eShop Temporary Discount
Trine 2: Director's Cut (Frozenbyte, €6.79 / ?5.49) until 5th September, normally €16.99 / ?13.99)

Lol, fair point (to a degree). I would easily still rather NCL's dodgy console spin-offs over Sega's. Have you played some of the sh1t Sega have put out for Android and iOS?

You just don't get Mario and co. appearing in crap like Sonic Dash or Sonic Jump.
