The only PS4 game I wanted was GGXRD which is coming to PS3 with cross play for cheaper, and I looked at the upcoming ps4 releases and ehhh

But bayonetta and smash bros.

Theres no ps4 or xbox one games that you cant just play on PC, so buy a wii u and play all the good,fun and cute games, that run at 60 fps, because nintendo is the only company who cares about good game design.

Currently refurb systems are the best deal, but the holidays are upon us and there's a real good chance to get the system for under 200 much more easily.

Not only that but you might get a game out of the deal too.

You know they say that all demons are created equal, but you look at me and you look at Pyro Jack and you can see that statement is not true, hee-ho!
Don't think. Do.

Do buy a Wii U.

I don't live in the US and would have to import so low prices are not a thing that's gonna happen, that's the issue

a Wii U and PS4 are the same price here, both $400. Wii U with Mario 3D World though which is a good game I played already

Actually has anyone ever asked any of the Nintendo guys their religion. Like I don't think it's documented anywhere.


Maybe they're all a bunch of Atheists?

Smash brothers, bayonetta and Hyrule Warriors all count as Sanctioned and Pure Anime Games.

Miyamoto came out recently and said region locking is something he would go back on putting in, if he was given a chance.

They might be learning, I hope they give NOA autonomy so NOJ stops making stupid decisions about the west.

I actually bought an anime import in 2014 lol. It was the Vita version of J Stars Victory while I was in Japan. It was a fun game and you can be Joseph Joestar and punch Goku, or Naruto. Gets repetitive quickly tho but it was a good souvenir. WHen you pick the fist of the north star guy all of his special moves and combos go WATATATATATTATA WATATATA TATATATATATA

don't forget to redeem your club Nintendo points, op. Consoles are worth lots of Mario bux.

Heard their rewards aren't as good anymore but hey free stuff

Do you have to manually redeem digital purchases

I was gonna redeem smash since I have the other smash and you get free stuff for both

No there are other better games out now for around 20 bucks and under.

Rayman legends is a mere pittance now.

you can't just flat out say the company you like is the only one who cares about good game design, when many other companies - many who aren't even hardware developers, and therefore not even in competition with nintendo - also greatly care about good game design, and while nintendo has and still makes games that have bad game design (like Yoshi's new Island what the gently caress nintendo)

wii u is cool, nintendo is cool, but let's not overstate things

Not true I'm pretty sure every non-Nintendo game is brown and is meant for people who deny their enjoyment of supposed "kiddie" games just because they're colorful. They're making a poor attempt at trying to pass for adults.

yeah they clearly care about game design by letting someone else take their IP and make an awfully designed game, publish and advertise it and also make money off of it

nintendo isn't perfect and there are other developers who care about great game design too
