We got news that a new exclusive is being made by Tecmo Koei Games for the Wii U. This is great. It looks like everyone is excited for it but I've never played a Tecmo Koei game so I dont know how great it is but if it will be localized I will probably pick it up. 

MK8 SSB4 Zelda U X Bayo 2 and Fatal Frame?  Is it time to buy a Wii U? 


Well those games are not even ownable yet for the Wii U.

By the time Bayonetta 2 is out GoW4/5 will most likely have been announced/teased. Maybe a GoW collection Remastered for the PS4 as well. Heck FFXV looks like vey similar hack n slash this time around. So Bayonetta 2 will really have hell for competition this time.

By the time SSB4 is out Ultra SF4 will be out or coming. The opening Cinematic is already online. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vRA5hF1NBzo

By the time Fatal Frame is out The Evil Within will have already been released. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=e80rwoiGGaA

By the time MK8 is out Driveclub, The Crew, leaks of GT7 will be on the way.

By the time X is out PS4 should provide it with competition. X looks good, but will it really see a release or a rushed version of itself where the design team just pushes it out regardless of quality?

Zelda U you got me, but is it even real...and I haven't heard if Miyamoto is the leader designing it. I personally think this Zelda game will be on the system after the Wii U until I'm proven wrong/incorrect.

If there is anything I've learned by watching the game industry is that it's better to rely on a steady amount of cool games during the year than just a few a year. The Wii U is not worth the risk until it is 199.99 imho. You asked and you recieved. :)

mk dont compete with gt, the crew or drive club. it maybe compete with lbp karting, sonic racing...

ssb dont compete with ssf, maybe with sony's version.

X is being developed for a long time, dont seems to be rushed.

 

and about wii u worth its 300$ price, maybe not for mass, but for core players, pikmin, sm3dw, w101, wwhd, donkey kong and rayman legends worth acquiring the console for its price.

i picked no, because I have NO faith that Ninty will have these games localized. So IMHO as a western consumer it might as well not exist.

Well I'll certainly pick the game up, but I don't see it pushing more than a handful of consoles, literally. You can probably count on no more than two hands the number of people who are going to pick up a wii u for fatal frame. It may be the most niche franchise in video games, I don't think all the games in the series combined have managed to crack a million.

I'll buy one once iwata gets fired, star fox is on it, when they get serious about online on it, and they actually put more their own first party games on it.



Started gaming on PS3 3/6/14 :)

Already got one recently for Mario Kart 8, but I'll see about looking into this game once they, you know, actually show it off! xD

I hear there will be a Mario Kart Bundle coming out soon. With a bundle which finally includes a good game, yes it is.


They may not interest you, just like they don't interest me very much, but make no mistake, NSMBU + NSLU, Nintendo Land, and WWHD are good games for sure!

Not really into survival-horror. Come on Nintendo, announce a Pokemon RPG for Wii U at E3 and I'm sold.


so you don't want to buy a Wii U at all

Wind Waker is good, but I already beat it on Gamecube, and the other two are average at best. NSMB lacks the creativity that NSMB 2/3/World/Wii had and is merely an HD skin to an old Formula. Nintendoland is inferior to Mario Party/Wii Sports.

FutureShop and a $10 off pre-orders promo, so I pre-ordered X and Smash Bros. Really hope there is a Mario Kart 8 bundle as I didn't pre-order that.

-----

Going to get my WiiU either this summer, or on fall when holiday sales come. To be honest I'm not THAT big on Mario Kart, especially since I can only play that with friends, but Pikmin 3 looks awesome. Still 1 game for single player isn't enough for me right now, so I'm in no hurry (I plan on beating DK and Super Mario in co-op as well)

So you use the fail reviewer logic of deeming a game bad simply because it had previous releases, yet you still deem an exact copy of a 10 year old game good. lawlz! Also, not that these games are even comparable, but you're seriously gonna say Wii Sports is better!? It's a terrible game! No depth to it's gameplay and very little content compared to Nintendo Land. And even if it is inferior to Mario Party, that doesn't mean it can't be a good game still!
