Has there been any information on how downloads from the Wii will be transferred over to the Wii U? Is it going to be something retarded like having to set up a transfer over WiFi with both consoles running at the same time?

boom boom boom posted:Local multiplayer, gently caress yeah! The worst thing about this current(previous?) generation of videogames is multiplayer games ditching local in favor of online. Why the gently caress they couldn't just add both, I won't understand. Wasn't he MP going to be for 5 players, 1 controlling the zombies and 4 others running around doing objectives? 4 player split screen looks awful. Has there been any word on if ZombiU going to be open world or linear? I'd really love it to be the former.

Veotax posted:Agreed, I prefer a heavier controller. Back in the N64 days, I kept the rumble pack plugged in even when playing games without rumble because I liked the extra weight it added. I'm in the same boat as you; I love when a controller has some heft to it. Hell, I like the added weight my Power Pak+ put on my 3DS. Don't like how light the Classic Controller or SixAxis controllers are, they feel so cheap.

Policenaut posted:Does Classic Controller Pro have any better heft to it? Because I have a regular CC and I'd prefer to grab a CCP for my copies of Xenoblade and Last Story when the Wii U drops. The shoulder buttons have better placement and the handles are a must, but the shoulder buttons are a bit too mushy and the controller still weighs nothing and feels hollow (because it is). Still, the best controller for the Wii though. sigher fucked around with this message at 02:05 on Sep 21, 2012 |

I'm talking about real life, you know, how looking into a bag you become wrought with tunnel vision. Blackbelt Bobman posted:They did this, I thought? Or a third party did, at least.

There isn't much you really have to do in Skyward Sword since combat isn't 1:1, just have to flick the remote in the proper direction.

greatn posted:I really don't get the loving deal with Zombies. It's almost as ubiquitous as "BACON!" and seems like a huge in joke every one except for me is in on. Is it that people have found a fictional class of person it is morally acceptable to slaughter? It's not so much the Zombies, but the Zombie mode that Treyarch has created is some of the best co-op gaming with a ton of depth, interesting mechanics/environments and different gimmicks for the different maps that change how you can play them. Plus the characters and story are fun. Though I will admit you need sperg levels of dedication to actually get most of the pieces of the story through playing the maps.

Bobnumerotres posted:I play driving games on PC all the time, don't exactly have the option of analog triggers there. Does this make me a bad person or are people who complain about this just whining? This isn't a wise-crack this is a legit question. It really depends on the game, if you're playing a driving simulator than you probably really care about precision making playing like keys or buttons without any pressure sensitive really unenjoyable. Do you play racing sims or arcade racers?

Supercar Gautier posted:Yeah, the Gamecube definitely had my favourite analog triggers so far. The PS3's pivot awkwardly when pressed and the 360's are kinda tiny. Man that thing looks really loving chintsy, is it basically just a Classic Controller unteathered? greatn posted:The PS3 ones don't look like they have far to compress either, but they do. No one seems to know on the classic pro controller though, because no one who's held it bothers to mention. What? The PS3 triggers make it pretty obvious they have 4 inches of give:

zenintrude posted:I can't confirm/deny that the keyboard function works with one of those, but I have a USB to GCN adapter that I used to connect a USB keyboard to my GCN, so I would guess that the reverse would be true as well... So you'd probably need 2 GC controller adaptors; but then it'd probably get registered on the PC as just a controller and you wouldn't have keyboard input. No clue though.

Chaltab posted:Capcom: Never optimize. Never put forth effort. Most console games don't run above 30 anyway. I thought Pikmin 3 was the only thing to look forward to on the WiiU but with the news of MH3HD/screen/3DS version that links with the WiiU version I'm not even thinking about Pikmin 3 anymore. The sad part is I'm probably going to be buying this for both the WiiU and the 3DS and probably a couple copies for some friends just so I have someone to play with locally (since I'm sure there's going to be plenty of Goons to play with online). And I might buy a 3DS or two for some friends that I know won't have the console or game at the time.  This game is going hurt my wallet.

Edoraz posted:I had a feeling it was something like that. It's not like I could say with a fact that I could buy a working headset that I could rely on on launch. Well with MH Tri Voice Chat only worked if both ends had the WiiSpeak mic that no one owned. So even if you had the mic, you'd only be heard by the people in your party that had it too. It's amazingly dumb. But that won't stop me from going balls deep into this console just for that loving game.
