It would be nice if we got some more core market games though. Where is CoD, Assassin's Creed and GTA?

Saoshyant posted:And the only good one of those was GTA and it sold gently caress all, so they aren't making more. Considering how shovelware-ish the Vita's AC and COD are do you really want them on the 3DS? The companies behind them will never put their own studios working on handheld versions, leaving it to be outsourced to the lowest bidder. I don't care if they're inferior, the 3DS is a lot more powerful than the DS and at least they would be present. They belong on the 3DS as much as any other system, at least make an attempt. Maybe some aspect of it will work and can be applied in a game of a similar genre by a different developer.

katkillad2 posted:I read the first post I promise! Also now that I see that article i'm sure I read that as well at some point. I think I just assumed it was going to be more like bonus levels to play modes like they did with coin rush or whatever and less likely that it would be almost a new game entirely with Luigi. Well, I don't think anyone quite expected that.

It's sort of like Episodes from Liberty City for GTA4. Same assets, different levels. Plus it has the thief Nabbit as an invincible multiplayer charcter, who can't power up but none the less can steal other players' items. It's bound to have other new stuff. Maybe the last boss this time will be weegee.

Magossa posted:My TV does have huge input lag, but that's not it since I used the gamepad. I played some more of it and I still don't like the feel. I think I know what it might be that's bothering me though. The camera. For some reason, my mind can't comprehend the way it follows Mario around. It almost makes me nauseous. It reminds me of classic Sonic games, which I can't play ether because of the camera. You can use L and R to pan left and right to some extent if you want to adjust it.

I wish they would add Super Metroid to the 3DS VC. Metroid 1 and 2 are all well and good but c'mon! I've got a big old gap on my 3DS home screen. Metroid, Metroid 2, _______, Metroid 4.

I think it's quite good. Lots of game modes (including an amusing one where you drop stairs for a little man to climb up), nice presentation and music, and still active online multiplayer.

Zaphod42 posted:If the Wii U can play the Wii VC games in Wii mode, then all it would take for those VC games to be on Wii U proper is a software update by Nintendo. There needs to be a Mii Channel, data management and SD card menu specifically for Wii software, which could potentially be confusing to have in the Wii U menu, but I don't see why they couldn't give Wii-relevant icons a border that was clearly labelled "Wii", and keep them all in their own folder on the home screen.

Rirse posted:That a pretty nice deal if you got a deluxe, as you get the amount again when you spent the wallet funds. Nintendo's deals aren't too bad, but all of them put together don't compare to Sony. Spend $50 in a year on Playstation and you get access to 64 games. Spend $600 in a year on Nintendo and you get a CD.

Champeenship posted:Does anyone know if the Pikmin 3/Wonderful 101 promotion is happening in Australia too? I know most eShop deals tend be across all PAL regions, but then again, it's also Nintendo of Australia. It's really a good idea to have an account set to a European country, you save around 20% on everything on the eShop by default and you'll get access to all their promotions. Australia is a ripoff.

Minidust posted:I believe the $10 code you get from that can only be redeemed on Wii U. This is not true, eShop funding codes work on both Wii U and 3DS provided they're set to the same country. I have yet to check if they give you DDP points though, but since you can also buy eShop credit in a store using cash I don't see why it wouldn't count it.

RMZXAnarchy posted:I was actually referring to the so called "Donkey Kong: Original Version" that they released last year for people who got a Digital copy of Sticker Star, Layton, Style Savvy or some Crosswords game. Its got the Pie Factory/Cement Factory level in it but its apparently more like the NES version and not the Arcade version (Though what differences are there really?) This is what it says on the Mario Wiki: "Two different ports of Donkey Kong have appeared on Virtual Console. The first, released in 2006, is essentially a direct port of the NES version, while the second, entitled Donkey Kong Original Edition, attempted to adhere to the arcade version, and was pre-installed for the European release of the Mario 25th Anniversary limited edition red Wii in 2010. This version restored some missing animations and the level 50m, which was cut from the NES version, although Donkey Kong mistakenly stands still in this level, and while the port's graphics are an improvement to the NES port, it is still inferior to the true arcade version, which remains unavailable on Virtual Console. The latter port was made available on the Nintendo eShop in the US between October 1, 2012 and January 6, 2013, exclusively to members of Club Nintendo who have, within the aforementioned time frame, linked their systems to their Club Nintendo accounts and have purchased the downloadable version of one of five select 3DS titles (one of which was Paper Mario: Sticker Star). There are currently no plans for a wide release of this version in the U.S."

Regy Rusty posted:I don't suppose there's any chance that they're going to add Link to the Past to the Wii U eShop in time for the sequel releasing in November, is there? I wanted to play it again before that one comes out, but currently my only option would be to add 1000 points to my Wii shop, on top of the 400 I already have, which would then leave me with 600 left sitting there uselessly. Nah, I would guess they'd probably release it at the same time. So you can either wait til then while keeping an eye on the Club Nintendo rewards, or buy it now and get an Art Style game or whatever with the 600 points.

irlZaphod posted:Don't be obtuse, I wasn't saying that the 3D was the only graphical change. They have both received graphical updates, but as far as I know (or knew) the only other difference between what was done with both games is the 3D in OoT. I see. WW isn't remodelled with increased polygons, it only has different superficial effects applied to it like 1080p. Hence the difference between WWHD and OoT3D was more than just the 3D effect.
