Throw in Trauma Team as well, that's a fantastic Trauma Center game.

Also you should go play those ASAP, they're dirt cheap at gamestop. :colbert:

If you play only one of the Trauma Center games, it should be Trauma Team if only for the novelty of seeing Atlus USA hire on a voiceactor you'd normally expect to be way out of their league. :v:

and it also has more variety than SURGERY SURGERY SURGERY all the time, but pfft seriously what is Nolan North doing here.

Here's a quick look at what the Recommended Wii Games will look like:

http://lpix.org/sslptest/index.php?id=20252

Feel free to let me know if you see something that makes you want to, like, blow homeless shelters up or set fire to daycares or something.

Instead of using covers, why not take a cue from the Vita thread OP and separate them into text lists by genre? It'd help people find what they might be interested in much more quickly.

yeah but Trauma Team has an entire 1/4th of the game dedicated to butt stuff. So getting the series on the Wii by any means was worth it.

It's even mentioned multiple times that the girl even comes from a long line of proud butt doctors. So Trauma Team is the best out of the three.

No, I'm pretty sure they're just ninjas.

I'm pretty sure game series can jump from console to console without porting over one of the previous games.

I mean they could have at least called it "Trauma Center: Under the Knife: Wii Edition" or something, but gently caress me for thinking "Second Opinion" doesn't mean "Same loving game but with weird Wii controls"

Well, yeah, but then people wouldn't realize there was a whole new character added in who's playable in a later game.

Also Wii controls rule.

So, here's a little developer interview with Platinum Games about the development of Bayonetta 2 for Wii U:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5ggn-vhUxrw

What's interesting about this video is what the producer says at the end of the video. He says that there's something he can't reveal yet that we should be excited for.

Could it be that Nintendo hired Platinum Games to make a third game for them? :flashfap:

quote:

Initially we were a little concerned about having to adjust the game to Nintendo users, but Nintendo actually came back and really gave us free reign.

So in terms of Bowser summoning, we said, "Is it okay if Bowser's going to be killing angels?"

And they said it's no problem at all.

Well, you press a couple of buttons lots and your guy/gal hits things until they die in all of their games. This goes on for 5 or 6 hours and is supposedly a good thing.

You press a few buttons on a keyboard lots and you share your opinion with the internet until your body rots away. This has gone on for at least six years and supposedly continues to be worth doing.

Yeah, as I said, I've played the original, I just haven't played it in a long time and have been wanting to replay it and playing the sequel first might make me less likely to ever do that. Plus the costumes should be fun.

And I definitely am not replaying it for the story seeing as I thought the story in the original was horrid.

By the way, while the game runs better than the PS3 version, somehow it apparently still runs worse than the 360 version.

That's not actually true.

It's a gimmick for the sake of a gimmick. And I don't want to move my body when I play games, I'll go outside if I want that. To me a game is like reading a novel, I want to relax and move as little as possible while doing it. The only reason I am considering a WiiU is because they ditched that particular gimmick and replaced it with one I care about somewhat less.

Are we talking about the Wiimote, Playstation Move, or Xbox Kinect.

Annoying rear end in a top hat for not liking Bayonetta and saying so.

I mean dude, it's like the difference between saying "noirstronaut is a lovely loving poster lol" and "Noirstronaut sometimes makes seemingly unprovoked incendiary posts that incite responses in kind." They're basically the same sentiment but one implies basic respect and discourse while the other is not too useful unless you want to rile everyone up for fun.

I haven't seen any real deals on the Wii U for black friday, the best I've seen is Target is doing 10% off gift cards on Black Friday(up to $300), so you could buy a $300 gift card and use it towards a Wii U.

Best Buy is doing a $360 bundle for a 32 GB with Nintendoland, 3D World, Tropical Freeze, and Smash Bros.

A graceful endeavor that takes about 4 times longer than it should, thus feeling like careful brush strokes. You can tell they learned a lot about what did and did not work when they revisited the general concept. For example, "don't make everything a circle."

The Wii controls actually can be pretty quick once you get used to some of the more finicky brush techniques. Flicking the wrist for a line or circle can take like a second.

I read the article and I don't understand what it means for their profit to triple. Given their performance last year, wouldn't... wouldn't that mean they're going to be losing thrice as much?

They probably just mixed up income with profit. I can't say I expect much from an article that cites VGChartz for some of its numbers.

If you select any chapter, there should be an option called Play History.

The Persona series never had the SMT prefix in Japan, and they started dropping it in the West with the first Arena game. The Devil Survivor 2 port came out this year and still carried the prefix.
