With the controller the possibilties are good, but man i can imagine some Wii owners being steamed, it was supposed to be on WIi, thats one less game coming to that console and they need a few

For me a love Pikmin to death and hoped for it this year but it being moved to the WiiU is good and awesome when you think of how much more we would be able to do with it and the way to play it. It is a perfect fit! Amazing nature graphics and solid controls with the new controller or with the WiiMote :D


thats all well and good, but what about those poor bastards who dont want to upgrade and dont have the money to buy another console?? I guess they are just screwed??

True but they would eventually buy it anyway later not just for Pikmin but other Nintendo games as well. If they think of what they can get on WiiU (lol have that Wii oooh video in my head) instead of Wii I think they will be happy anyway.

 

Nintendo give us a screenshot at least!!



    R.I.P Mr Iwata :'(

NoA has been really lousy this gen. No NPC Pikmin 2, no Disaster: Day of Crisis, no Another Code:R, and by the looks of it no Xenoblade or TLS either...

There have also been a few key releases on DS we never got like Last Window etc.

The only NoA published games I know of that haven't been brought to Europe are Excitebots and Trauma Team (which isn't even a Nintendo game...).

Don't forget that Mario baseball game, but I essentially agree with you.  This is the first gen where America can be argued as missing out as much or more than the PAL territories.

ill take it one step furtrher, no Fatal Frame at all! What makes it worst is they have those weak ass low budget, shovelware piece of crap horror games taking up space, but they dont actually release one thats good?? Sony or someone needs to take that series away from them, they obviously dont know what the hell they are doing, at least when it was on PS2 some games got localized

Personally I'm not sure Nintendo is entirely or even maybe at all for blame for Fatal Frame IV staying Japan only.  Nintendo actually commissioned an advert for the game, shown below:

To me that suggests that NoE had the intention of localisation and a willingness on Nintendo's part.  Why would NoE get a game they didn't want to release localised and rated by PEGI and then advertise it?  This leads me to believe Tecmo is a factor/one of the reasons why we haven't got it here in Europe yet.  I'm pretty sure I also remember reading in the 'Ask Nintendo' section of ONM a couple a years ago about Fatal Frame IV's localisation, NoE said something along the lines of 'it isn't up to us'.

^^^ fair enough, i was really referring to NOA, dont know how it is in Europe, but they have been sucking over here. But hey, im thinking that NOA doesnt have near the power to do anything like i thought they did. Tecmo, you suck if your not releasing these outside of Japan, Fatal Frame carved itself a nice little following when it was on PS2 even in the US, They have no faith that Wii owners in the US or Europe will not buy these games?? Fine, at the very least throw those bad boys on PSN and/or XBL. SOMETHING
