I half expected people to be uncivilized or apathetic about Iwata's passing...I'm touched that people actually respect and admire the man. NintendoLife has been full of tears since yesterday, to be honest.
If it was going to be this lackluster, Ubisoft REALLY should have done a combo pack with ACU and Rogue for the Wii U. I mentioned it before, either on NintendoLife, PushSquare or PureXbox, that since they should have done so to give Nintendo some love, and that hopefully with such a bold and risky move that it might pay off for both gamers and developers alike.
Remaking the trilogy for the PS4 and XBO seems like a waste of time to me. People could get it for much cheaper on the PS360 already.
If BioWare REALLY wanted to give the original ME trilogy one last hurrah, they should repackage it for the Wii U. They want the PS4 and XBO to be "next-gen"? Then by God, they HAVE to focus on new IPs.
I don't quite know what to make of all this. Maybe Microsoft's just going to resign themselves to a publishing division like Sega did and just release their games on multiple platforms. Being able to play Halo on a PS4 and Wii U would be nice. lol
I still use my PS3 to play those Sega gems - Project Diva and Yakuza, to be precise - and I still need to beat FFX and X-2 HD. I'm getting burned out with RPGs so I even got Dust and Defiance to blow off some steam. Thank God there's so much free to play stuff on PS3 - I don't even need PS+ to access most of it, let alone play online.
As much as I find this obnoxious, I hope this shows players the glaringly obvious flaw that involves paying to play online multiplayer. Remember the attack in 2011? PS+ didn't mean much back then, but if you lose a month of paid game time now...
There have been a bunch of franchises and installments that I've been waiting to see localized, but it seems like they're trying too hard to pander to the demographic that makes up the majority of the consumer base. Apparently I'm part of the niche bracket.
Nothing for me. My holiday gaming budget only allows for Hyrule Warriors, Bayonetta 2, Theatrhythm Curtain Call, Watch_Dogs and Smash all on the Wii U. I'll have to get Inquisition next year.
I support indie developers because they know the importance of bringing gamers together instead of segregating them, unlike the "triple-A" third-party developers have been doing lately.
@rastamadeus A fact I know all too well, my friend. Anyway, the Dead or Alive game I got for my 3DS is tiding me over quite nicely at the moment. I might get the Vita version as well to see if the framerate is just as smooth as the 3DS version.
This is the first time in my life that I could actually feel my eyes pop out of my head. You know those really, really old cartoons that have those lechers eyes pop out and do that wolf howl whenever they see a beautiful woman? Yeah...it's something like that. lol
@Gamer83 "At least there's still plenty of opportunity for PS fans to get the game, the people I feel awful for are the Nintendo gamers. The first was made for and sold best on 3DS, there was a Wii U version which outsold the 360 version and Capcom just flips them the bird. Pathetic business practice, just like the stupid a$$es at SquareEnix and Crystal Dynamics taking the MS moneyhat for Rise of the Tomb Raider but the worst part is, there was no moneyhat involved here, just Capcom's own stupidity which is why that company is in the shape it is."
This. So much. I just fail to understand the motive behind this. They're better off just releasing it on all platforms. At least that way they'd retain their integrity in the gaming community as well as maximize their income potential. From this point on, I'm boycotting Square Enix, Capcom, EA, Activision and Ubisoft games that AREN'T releasing on Nintendo platforms. It's astounding how they keep pandering to the lowest common denominator in the gaming community. Just because the hardware's out there doesn't mean the software will sell that exact amount.
I remember when the Wii U was getting flak for making "excessive" HD ports, now the third party devs go and do something like this and they get praised for it...I'll never understand the internet.
What are people trying to prove by gathering statistics like this and presenting them the way they do? That Sony's already won everyone over? Yeesh. I'm getting tired of this console supremacy. Give me cross-platform multiplayer and games or we're going to be stuck in the quagmire that is the console politics of last-gen.

Re: TGS 2014: Some Dragon Quest Heroes Gameplay Footage Appears!
I'd never played a DQ game, so as much as I'm going to get flogged for this, I might just use this as an entry point into the series.
Re: Senran Kagura Shinovi Versus Goes for the Jugular Next Month
Anyway, at least the boob physics are better and more accurate than Dead or Alive's.
Re: Senran Kagura Shinovi Versus Goes for the Jugular Next Month
How did they manage to make sushi look so vulgar? lol

Re: Store Preview: FIFA 15, CastleStorm, Defense Grid 2
I was wondering when CastleStorm was coming to the PS4. Played it a bunch on my Wii U and it's pretty fun. Kinda 2D tower-defense-y.

Re: Sony Lining Up Internet TV, TV, TV Launch for PlayStation 4
I really wish Sony would just cut their losses and just stick to what they do best: Games, audio systems and Walkmans.
Re: TGS 2014: What Will You Be Able to Do in Final Fantasy XV's Four Hour Demo on PS4?
Sounds kinda like what Ground Zeroes was supposed to offer, but now you actually get a full game. lol

Re: Review: Warriors Orochi 3 Ultimate (PlayStation Vita)
Looks better than its PSP counterparts, obviously. lol I'll probably pick it up.
Re: TGS 2014: Final Fantasy XV Is a Real Game, and This PS4 Tech Demo Proves It

The Sony and Nintendo partnership needs to be revisited, methinks.

About damn time, I say. Hopefully with the Wii U base Nomura can finally bring KHIII to Nintendo. lol
Re: TGS 2014: Yakuza Zero Trailer Looks Good on the Dance Floor
-Drool-
Must...have...Kiryu-sensei on my PS4.
Re: TGS 2014: Final Fantasy Type-0 HD Looks Better Than Ever in This PS4 Trailer
Great...more waiting from SE. XIV can only keep me busy for so long.

Re: TGS 2014: That Dragon Quest Heroes PS4 Makes Us Want to Melt
Looks like something to slime for.
Re: Need for Speed: Rivals - Complete Edition Parks Up on PS4 in October

Re: Feature: No Games November - PS4's Lineup Is Starting to Look Silly
Nothing for me. My holiday gaming budget only allows for Hyrule Warriors, Bayonetta 2, Theatrhythm Curtain Call, Watch_Dogs and Smash all on the Wii U. I'll have to get Inquisition next year.
Re: Aww, Middle-Earth: Shadow of Mordor's PS3 Release Date Has Been Delayed

Re: You'll Do More Than Hack 'n' Slash in Shadow Warrior This September
Looks good enough to merit a reservation.
Re: This Senran Kagura Shinovi Versus Trailer Is Not Safe for Work
Bikinis! Boobs! Butts! Oh my!
lol In all seriousness, I could go for this to sate my boredom on the Vita at the moment.
Re: Sony's Gamescom 2014 Teaser Trailers Are Getting Worse
The video for Seven Nation Army was the inspiration for this, I assume? Except, the track wasn't good enough to keep me interested. lol

Re: Ubisoft Keeps its Blade Hidden by Delaying Assassin's Creed Unity into November
What's with all these delays from the third-party devs? It seems like they're trying to dance around Nintendo's releases.
...Hmm, but then again, Smash on the 3DS IS coming out in October, and since there are 44 million units out there...
Re: Delve Deep Down the Rabbit Hole of PS4's Prettiest Free-to-Play Game
If this is using the Panta Rhei engine Capcom was going on about awhile ago, I hope they can bring these kinds of graphics to the Wii U and XBO.
Re: Kazuma Kiryu's Yakuza Zero Outfit Shows What Was Acceptable in the 80s
Holy cow...for my inaugural cosplay outfit, I'm going with this one. All the way.

Re: Study With a Virtual Reality Schoolgirl on PS4, Thanks to Tekken Team and Project Morpheus

Re: Not Even Sony Understands Why the PS4 Is Selling So Well
You know what I think? The whole Playroom nude stream incident brought a lot of teens over to the PS4 expecting to see more nudity.
