i've bounced back into certain types of games and certain developers and publishers, when i've at one point or another lost hope... i can't help it... i'm a gamer. i really don't like playing all games, but i like all games equally. i'm the game freak that i once was, but i am still endowed with the love for these things.

i'll be with Nintendo till the end. :sadyes: even as they are foaming and grokking at the mouth.

yeah that's the one. neckbeards and basement dwellers like to sit on the message boards of a particular movie they dislike and insult anyone who says they like it. :lol:

I've never heard of Allmovie before.

People like Miyamoto would never be hired in today's Nintendo. All their quirky stuff is done in games that your only supposed to play for 15 minutes each. Everything else pretty much sticks to the same formula, going up in quality but down in fulfillment with each iteration. Not to mention the guy that does Zelda's hasn't done one since Majora's Mask, so all of them come up easy and have immersion breaking features galore, which again shows they're hiring people that are way too smart and don't play the things and judge them from a gamers standpoint.

The third party games from last gen came up short as well.  All of the brawlers that should have been amazing felt like games for 5 years old's with mature themes slapped on them for adults. Like we get that autistic people test your games, but do they also test the third party games? Is that why they're extremely easy outside of boss fights?

One of the hallmark games for that gen was supposed to be conduit and it was simply the wooooorrst fps I have ever played and was a clunky glitchy mess with no feasible way to make the moving/aiming any better. The fact it got any recognition by wii players only ruined a wii owners reputation. Compared to the call of duty franchise that was simply too afraid to advertise for the system, because the games looked so radically different from the commercials.

The hardware is cool to play with usually, but it just lacks in certain area's.  Games that looked good on the wii in single looked absolutely dreadful in split screen, because of the low resolution and the lackluster GPU. I mean plenty of ps3 games play in 480p and don't look half as bad as the Wii games.  The Wii was loading textures,assets on screen in games like Xenoblade and Call of duty simply because there wasn't enough speed to display bushes or sign textures before you looked that way...and I don't think I'll ever forget the blockyness of that first 007 game. When the 2nd Golden Eye came out it looked like it was done on a new system.

So yeah, the wii's lackluster software sales was partly to blame by both Nintendo AND 3rd party. I think also they failed to advertise ANY games on that system. I don't remember one game from that system advertised ever. And it showed with third party software doing so poorly and the studio's and publishers disappearing over night while the developers were sleeping.

Even now the Wii U might have dedicated sound and more memory, but it's still lacking in overall speed. My laptop from five years ago technically has more power(intel first off) and it's definitely not meant for gaming. If you played Black Ops 2 on Wii U you'd still see assets popping in on kill cam if someone did a thrown drone strike across the map. I know they just ported the game, but should that really still be a thing when you have double the memory of other consoles? To be honest does anyone on any console anywhere care about assets popping in? They used to have fog of war, but now it's just common place for a bush or a air conditioner to show up out of thin air. And to be honest the FPS was going up and down, though you couldn't notice it. Why I have no idea, but rushed ports simply didn't have a steady FPS last November compared to the other systems.

Also the Wii U uses blu-ray disc, but it only has usb 2.0 ports, so it's dumb to install anything into an external harddrive. Usb 2.0 will simply be too slow when games start taking advantage of the system, but that may be curtailed by the fact the system isn't that fast to begin with, the use of shaders, sound card and more memory aside 1.2 tri-cores is pretty shitty, it's doing parallel programming, but that doesn't mean its 3.6ghz. It's simply just three cores operating together. Why they weren't a little bit faster, no one knows. Sony and Microsoft use double the cores on gaming and they are at least nearing 2ghz, why didn't Nintendo see that coming? And are Online games going to be held up by people using usb 2.0?

And the new button schemes on the systems aren't that great either. I feel like they should have copied the xbox's stick lay out and then just had two buttons above. I don't understand why four buttons are useful, you can't press them all at once so why even have them? If you need to reload in a shooter why not depress the other stick?

So yeah Nintendo has finally gone easy on the eyes again and it's backwards compatible, but it's still far from perfect IMO it's pretty much just approachable at this point.

yeah, i can definitely say, they're EAD departments are so heavily structured, nothing new breaks through from below the corporate junction on the ladder up.

but alot of people at Nintendo keep re-iterating that so and so is stepping down and is gonna let other people take control of the project; but yet they don't really get any of their own. they're always looking to one of the heads (Miyamoto, Koji ect) because they aren't really going for expressing innovation, unless it's by "the Nintendo code" which is casually and slowly eking it's way to retirement.

maybe it's because everyone has to defer to these heads, or maybe it's because the heads themselves aren't doing it? who knows? i dunno; do they actually HAVE the talent in the workforce, beyond the "big heads".

that's what i wonder, because you guys are right, they really don't go out of their way for ANYTHING. :lol:

Mario looks decent, but I'm probably going to rent it and pick up Wonderful 101 instead. That game needs some major sales, it did horrible in Japan. I'll probably pick up Bayonetta 2 as well, because I also liked Vanquish and Madworld. Basically I'm not buying any first party games unless they're the really big ones.

Platinum Games are making the major strides at Nintendo right now. Wonderful 101 looks great.

Yeah, I was lying in bed thinking about it and compared to the other consoles you really are getting a deal, it's just some people might not like looking down at the controller or want all the third party stuff other consoles have to offer,it's sad but the Wii U can't really get any lower in price.

Unlike the Wii which sold for like 220$ new the second year and had 10 million units by then.

Well my friend hung out with me the other day so I cornered him and made him take me to gamestop to buy Mario

All I can say is Wiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii uuuuuu!:yesnod:

Exploring levels for collectables is pretty fun and my friend enjoyed the game even though he's more of a M-rated gamer.

Worth the twenty bucks I spent after I re-sell the game definitely!

Will probably get several more sessions out of it, I'm very meticulous.
