I've never played Monster Hunter before and I'm having a ton of fun beating up the bunny with all the different weapon types. Just trying to understand the difference in how I need to act between extremes like dualswords and gunlance is a blast.

Is there any reason to get Mighty Switch Force on Wii U if I have it on 3DS?

Quest For Glory II posted:They could theoretically put every single one on there, since the Gamepad has all the features needed for Mega Microgames, Twisted, Touched and DIY, and the system supports Wii Remotes for Smooth Moves. I'm imagining 9-Volt reaching under his covers and pulling out a different colored GBA or DS to play a different version of WarioWare on and it makes perfect sense.

Half the games in Nintendo Land are single player games, and half of the multiplayer games are coop ones which can be played single player.

Is there a wiimote charging dock that works with the rubber condom on? Or any that comes recommended with batteries? I like having the cradle for my gamepad.

As far as I know, Skylanders doesn't actually use the NFC standard and the figures won't be compatible with the Gamepad. In fact, the next Skylanders game is even going to require a new base and the old one won't even work anymore.

Crowbear posted:So in this hypothetical Wii U version of Skylanders you wouldn't actually be able to use the gamepad to play, right? Don't the figures need to sit on the "portal" to work? It could be a quick "scan" type thing instead. Skylanders requires the constant connection because it saves xp or whatever and you can swap out at any time.

greatn posted:Is anyone else disheartened by the news that Miyamoto is working on Pikmin cartoons and he wants to finish those before releasing Pikmin 3? It's like, who's running the show over there where they think working on non interactive cartoons is a good use of their top developer's time? Isn't he mostly an adviser and name on most projects by now? A lot of the Iwata Asks interviews over the last few years of Mario games made it sound like the teams work on their own and then show things to him afterwards. Or just ask him for approval beforehand on really broad things.

Admiral H. Curtiss posted:Well that's the thing though -- if you go read the Sticker Star Iwata Asks, IntSys had "just what they did in TTYD" running on the 3DS, but then Miyamoto came along and told them they should cut that back and do something entirely different instead, using only characters that appeared in early Mario games (read: SMB1). I didn't know Wiggler and Kamek were from Mario 1.

Artix posted:And on a unrelated note, I would really appreciate it if the Wii U's "Power down after downloads are finished" option worked, Nintendo. 60% is not "finished." Now I have to wait another two and half hours before I can play Lego City. Maybe the 1 hour no activity shutdown happened instead?

Chronojam posted:Battlefield 3 literally tells you to click to shoot the gun whenever you hop into a tank, it's nearly to the point of parody, honestly. I watched a stream of Bioshock Infinite and there was an amazing amount of text on screen at all times giving tips on how to play, at one point there was two separate things saying LOW ON AMMO in the middle of the screen at the same time.

Any time someone talks about a game in this thread, they get told to take to to some other thread. If talking about what a failure Nintendo is were banned as well, there would be no reason for this thread to exist.

katkillad2 posted:This is the worst thread in games, 90% of the posts are poo poo posts and passive aggressive attempts to start the same arguing over and over. If you think i'm wrong, look at the vita thread where they can have discussion without 15-20 reminders every page about how the vita is doing poorly. It doesn't help that any time people start actually talking about games, they are told to take it to another thread about that specific game.

Nonsense posted:That they didn't even include Gamestop says it all. People might not be in love with GS, but it makes a good deal of sense to put them there more than at loving Best Buy. Nintendo already does this stuff with Best Buy, it is an existing business relationship. They have a NintendoZone app for 3DS that is useless unless you go into a Best Buy and connect to their network, and you can download demos and get coupons and poo poo like that.

You will probably want to make sure you get Wii Remote Plus instead of a normal Wii Remote, as more games will probably be requiring it.

PaletteSwappedNinja posted:See, I think using a game to re-establish Ducktales with today's kids is a great idea, I just don't get why they're trying to do it with a $15 digital-only remake of a NES game. Why not just go the whole hog and make a full-on modern retail game rather than half-arsing it like this? I don't think they are trying to re-establish Ducktales, I think they are trying to sell a cheap to make game to nerds who get excited easily.

There's another room which is the glass tube room but already blown up. I think thats supposed to be a natural hint, but most people won't recognize the relation between the two rooms.

This was actually my first time playing all the way through Super Metroid and I did ask my friends about some things. I was a bit ashamed but in the end I think it made it more fun for me and it was fun for them to help me. After I beat it, one of them streamed getting 100% as fast as he could.

PaletteSwappedNinja posted:In the Iwata Asks for one of the Olympics games they mentioned how the swimming events were a total pain in the arse because Sega's "brand supervisor" kept insisting that Sonic was canonically unable to swim, so they had to try and come up with all sorts of ridiculous contrivances that would explain why he was able to participate. I think they gave him an inflatable life vest or something? He wears arm floaty things like a toddler, which is really funny and cute and I'm glad they had those arguments.

Anything is possible and I am not as familiar with him as you all are, but it just strikes me as unlikely in this age. He does this every day and also often posts false info which gaming news sites beleive.
