New Super Mario Bros U, Nintendoland and ZombiU all loving own. Lego City Undercover was also in the launch window and is fantastic. The XBone doesn't even have four good exclusives and it's been out for close to a year.

Also Donkey Kong, and Earthbound. Bayonetta 2 and Captain Toad coming out before the end of the year. The wiiU is gonna be the best Nintendo console if this keeps up, regardless of future 3rd party support.

Not true, Nintendo is a better company with third party support than without.


Captain Toad doesn't look fun. But Bayonetta 2 does but Bayonetta 2 will continue the proud long tradition of nobody giving a poo poo about Bayonetta.

It's an expanded minigame they pushed into a full game. The Mario spinoffs that did this(like Sports Mix) were not really strong titles.

Look if I wanted to play a fun game where you're a ridiculed dwarf interacting with the cold, dark, and uncaring world around him. I'd wait for the Telltale Game of Thrones games.

Look Captain toad is like the least likable Mario Character. This is like when they made the dragon quest spinoff around Torneko.

Nobody wants to play as the most unremarkable guy who wears ugly clothes. They should have made it based around Rosilina, since she makes Toadstool and Daisy look like pale imitators.

... but the Torneko game completely owned and started a long line of spinoffs that continue to this day? I mean if Captain Toad is as successful as Torneko then Nintendo'd probably be real drat happy about that.

Uh, that isn't the first Torneko game.



This was. Any game with "Mysterious Dungeon" in the title is based off Torneko's Great Adventure: The Mysterious Dungeon. Chunsoft has made over 25 of them and they're a long-running and popular franchise.

(Also The Last Hope got panned because it was a roguelike, not because it was bad.)

Yep. Same developer (Chunsoft) and everything. They also did Shiren the Wanderer. There's also a bunch of knockoffs of it from other developers. Square-Enix has made a whole buncha knockoffs of it, including a Chocobo-themed one and that weird "Last Mission" thing from FFX-2 International.

Nah, The Last Hope is Torneko 2. The third one was a PS2 game. They also did a PS2 one starring Yangus instead of Torneko.

It's $40 and you'll probably be able to find it for $20 by the summer (Nintendo has games that either never go down in price EVER or plummet real fast)

It'll be a game like kirby's epic yarn which at one point was selling for $8 from gamestops everywhere

Even if it is a 'Mario' game it is gonna drop in value
