So why aren't there any DLC worlds for 3D World, anyway? I would totally drop  on another Star World or something like that.

Plague Knight is definitely the one with the most erratic attacks, though. That's why he's the coolest boss

100% Yoshi's Island is really terrible. Just go watch a 100% speedrun of the game on Youtube, they are insanely technical.

Just doing it isn't that hard. It's a pain in the rear end because of the red coins, imo. There's not a lot of rhyme or reason as to where they're all hidden.

Asnorban posted:The worst part about the Hyrule Warriors reviews are how much time the reviewer has spent in each one I've read seemingly shocked that it isn't a Zelda game or a perfect hybrid of Zelda gameplay and Dynasty Warriors gameplay. It's been pretty obvious from day one that this was, just like every other IP used for a Dynasty Warriors game, just a Zelda skin on DW gameplay. You know what, though? That's a perfectly valid reason to give it a middling review because Musou gameplay is really dumb and bad. Just because I'm going to buy it anyway, because that's exactly what I want and expect out of it, doesn't make it any better or excuse it for being dumb and bad.

Anyone that wants to talk poo poo about the soundtrack that brought us Gusty Garden Galaxy can take a walk. I know Nintendo's really milking the hell out that tune right now (since it ended up in MK8 and 3D World) but I don't care, because it's really great.

ChaosArgate posted:You really don't need to look at the gamepad to aim. Wind Waker HD does it and if you're playing on the TV, then you can't look at the gamepad because you'll be staring at a menu if you do. Gyroscopic aiming feels super natural and is way, way better than aiming with a stick. Your mileage may vary. Gyro aiming does not click with me at all. It feels uncomfortable and I really struggle to get a level of precision that I can get with sticks.

That is the one stage in NSMBW that I died on enough to get the super guide block to appear, because of that loving star coin. It turns out that, even if you don't actually use the block, you disqualify yourself from getting all the save file stars if it shows up.

This is kind of a dumb question. I want to buy a computer monitor that I will use as my primary monitor (I have a two-monitor setup), but I also want to use it for my Wii U. Can I just get a monitor that has both DVI and HDMI inputs, plug the DVI into the computer and the HDMI into the Wii U? Would a monitor like this typically have an input switch like a TV would? My TV is usually in use by  my girlfriend so I don't want to interrupt her with my gaming.

I'm going to revise my opinion of "Wii U games on my monitor" from fabulous to really excellent. The Wii U games look a lot better with me closer to the screen. Regular Wii games also look better with the smaller screen, because the up-scaling made the lack of anti-aliasing in games like Metroid Prime really stand out and look bad on my TV. I was able to stick the sensor bar to the top of the monitor and it works pretty well, but it's pretty clear you weren't meant to use it while so close to it. I could probably find a way to put it on the wall or something behind the monitor and that would work better. Also props to Nintendo for making all the cables really long, because all of the hardware is actually sitting on a table several feet away from the monitor and everything reaches without any problem.

You should get a Pro Controller. It's pretty much a ringer for the Xbox 360 controller, which is probably my favorite "normal" controller of all time.

Hyrule Warriors is super silly fun and I love it a lot. It's weird seeing anime boobs in a Zelda game though, but this version of Link as a mass-murdering warlord with insatiable bloodlust is pretty endearing. e: Also the awful butt rock is just fantastic. What a great stupid bad game. (I've only played about half of one other Musou game before.) RyokoTK fucked around with this message at 05:31 on Oct 5, 2014 |

MaxDuo posted:Captain Toad looks great. Great art, very cute game. But I really hope the puzzles ramp up a lot in difficulty pretty fast. Everything they've demoed so far seems super easy and straight forward, barely puzzling at all. If it's consistent with other Mario games, it'll probably be mostly easy and then the optional levels will be utterly insanely difficult.

I mean, I'm not going to buy Bayo 2 because of the oversexualization. It just makes me feel awkward. Maybe it's because I live in a house with non-gamers. Even the anime boobs in Hyrule Warriors kinda wigged me out a bit.

Fabulous Knight posted:I'm in the same boat here. I really want to play 3D Land, NSMBU, MK8, WWHD, Tropical Freeze and Pikmin. At least. The problem is that Zelda U, Xenoblade X and the Toad game are pretty much the only upcoming games I'm interested in. I've put quite a good amount of hours into 3D World and Hyrule Warriors. It's basically a companion console to me, though; most of my gaming time is spent playing PC games.

Nintendo consoles haven't been the go-to for quantity of quality releases since the Super NES anyway. If you can only have one console, I would not buy a Wii U, but there are some very good games exclusive to the system, so I'd say it's a worthy buy if you have the cash and you're fine having only 8-10 games.

Macaluso posted:I wonder how Bowser runs his kingdom? I mean you'd think since he's the villain he'd be like a dictator but I think all his minions like working for him. They probably get good benefits. He comes off like a dick but he's just a very stern ruler who expects results, but also rewards competence. He seems like a loser but that's because you only see it from Mario's perspective. I bet he's pretty successful at running a kingdom overall.

Macaluso posted:I'm fairly sure you can't do every dungeon in any order. I think like two of the dungeons require an item you don't get until you do a particular dungeon. I assume this is referring to A Link Between Worlds. In Hyrule, you have to do the Eastern Palace first, but then you can do the Tower of Hera or House of Gales in either order. In Lorule, you can do any dungeon in any order except the Desert Palace, for which you need the Sand Rod from Thieves Hideout first. eta: For anyone who hasn't played A Link Between Worlds yet, you really really should. I think it's the best Zelda ever.

I am surprised to find out that anyone gives a hot gently caress about Rosalina in one way or another. It's another empty white girl who wears a crown, in a Mario game? What a weird concept. But really she's like the only named character in a really good Mario game, I'm not surprised to find her in other Mario games. (except for Captain Toad, who is the true MVP of Super Mario Galaxy)

The idea that Nintendo might be working on new hardware shouldn't be a revelation to anyone, because I'd expect there's always something being planned or prototyped or whatever you like at Nintendo HQ (or any other large electronics corporation, really).

The funny thing that everyone seems to overlook w/r/t the value of Smash 3DS is that it's portable. Like, having Smash in my pocket is pretty loving sweet. Yeah, it's not going to be quite the same experience as the WiiU version, but sitting in your dark bedroom and playing it on the 3DS is probably not the point.
