I just hope the new zelda game has multiple uses for items. I liked in wind waker being able to use most of the items for both combat and noncombat purposes and I wish more zelda games had better combat and cool combat uses for dungeon items

Oh gaaaawd this game is so boring because I keep having to replay the same sections because I keep dying~

The Souls level design is straight out of castlevania and properly translated to 3d. So so many unlockable short cuts, optional bosses, the world has many places to explore. I do not see how someone could honestly hate it.

Thanks hyrule warriors for at least giving everybody a chance to use the spinner as a weapon.


Too bad it's locked behind amiibo stuff tho

I wish the hammers were more useful tho. Hitting miniblins with the skull hammer was a lot of fun but I wish it had more use as a weapon

Nintendo did not ruin my life

For example I am not a professional smash player who goes around with a list in my pocket full of screen names who belong to people who have challenged me to Smash brothers matches for money. And I must complete this list or I shall not make rent this month.


There are people who exist like that, those are the people who's lives have been ruined by Nintendo.

I just know deep down inside Nintendo could make cutting edge games again and the fact that they don't any more loving sucks balls.

Skyward Sword had good items. I liked the gust bellows and the beetle and the whip was my go-to weapon for dealing with bats.

personally i prefer quality over quantity and am satisfied with my collection on the wii u and other systems

This is exactly how I feel. What good is having a huge library to choose from when the number of titles that I actually want to buy and play is less than those on the Wii U? The Wii U has plenty of really fun games to play.

Jivjov is really not as bad as he's made out to be by virtue of being completely honest, certainly not as powerful as one The Taint Reaper

Except it's not really quantity over quality. Many of the first party titles have been of subpar grade.

neither of the mario games are as good as Galaxy 1 and 2. Mario kart 8 is lacking things it's predecessors came with, the only game series that got better was DKC and that was because they removed the motion controls.

People were listing their Wii U games a few pages back while I was asleep or whatever, I want to do that.

Adventure Time: Explore the Dungeon Because I DON'T KNOW!
Animal Crossing: amiibo Festival
Assassin's Creed III
Bayonetta/ Bayonetta 2
Captain Toad: Treasure Tracker
Deus Ex: Human Revolution Director's Cut
Donkey Kong Country: Tropical Freeze
Funky Barn
Game & Wario
Hyrule Warriors
Kirby and the Rainbow Curse
LEGO City Undercover
Mario Kart 8
Mario Party 10
Monster Hunter 3 Ultimate
New Super Luigi U
New Super Mario Bros. U
Nintendo Land
Pikmin 3
Rayman Legends
Rodea the Sky Soldier
Scribblenauts Unlimited
Shovel Knight
Sonic & All-Stars Racing Transformed
Splatoon
Super Mario 3D World
Super Mario Maker
Super Smash Bros. for Wii U
The Legend of Zelda: The Wind Waker HD
The Wonderful 101
Wii Party U
Xenoblade Chronicles X
Yoshi's Woolly World
ZombiU

I've had my Wii U since launch and most of these games are pretty good. A few, like Mario Party and Funky Barn, I got heavily discounted (I actually like Funky Barn for the price I paid). I don't get why people say the Wii U has no games because it clearly does and a lot of them are really, really good!

Still laughing that Nintendo is releasing yet another HD game for 60 bucks.

And it's not even coming with anything other than an amiibo. Like no extra games or expanded content.

Gravity Rush Remastered is only around 30 bucks and that's the full game+extra missions and everything else brought up to the highest resolution. And The Nathan Drake Collection is three whole games reworked to the point where people confused them for Uncharted 4 demos because the remasters were so extensive.

It's also still cheaper to buy the Original Twilight princess than it is to buy the HD version.

The manger babies don't have feelings. You said it yourself.
I have:

Super Mario 3D World
Nintendo Land
Mario Kart 8
Bayonetta / 2
Smash Bros
Hyrule Warriors
Splatoon
Super Mario Maker

I've also bought some Wii games for it as well, which I also count, even if they're a platform behind:
Metroid Prime Trilogy
Okami
Kirby's Epic Yarn

The problem is that OoT was bought by many people more than once for multiple systems. For what reason should they not just release an HD version at full price when they know people will buy it?

It's a pretty good version, yeah. Kamiya may have some beef with it for weird pointer controls, but they're manageable.

it's going to run you the same as the digital HD version which has none of those issues.

Yes, Okami HD is on the PS3 PSN store. That one's probably the best version overall, but the Wii version's not a bad second place.

You could go and get a $20 PSN card? I guess it'd have to be $20 + whatever the next cheapest card is for tax, so it might be cheaper to grab a Wii copy of Okami.
