Forums - Nintendo - Batman: Arkham City is a Wii U launch day title

Salnax on 09 October 2012

I might get it if the reviews are good or the price is sufficiently low, but I'm prioritizing on exclusives and non-year-late ports like AC3.



My friend is a Vtuber, check him out.

Given that the game is a year old already, I should certainly hope so.


Don't h8. Sony fans have taught me that the only way to judge a console is by aligning launches so if you look at the release date, Batman AC actually came out earlier in its life cycle than the hd twins. It's all a matter of perspective my friend.

Should be sweet. I'll definitely be picking this one up at launch. I didn't get my 3D TV until after I'd already finished Arkham City on the 360 and I've always wanted to do a 3D playthrough. Since I doubt the Wii U is going to cut the 3D mode, this will give me a chance to test the Wii U in 3D, try out the new gameplay, and replay one of my favorite games of all time.

I'll be getting this before year is over, just too many games at launch... (first world problem)

I hear ya! the launch line up is enough to keep me busy the rest of 2013!!



I'm on Twitter @DanneSandin!

Furthermore, I think VGChartz should add a "Like"-button.

Them improved over all other version graphics!*drools*. And to thing that this was just in alpha.

Anyone who hasn't gotten this game should get this version. It will be the best available

PC? I doubt it. Wii U specs aren't up to 2011 PC gaming rig specs, and no one's going to get optimal use out of the Wii U HW on day one, not even Nintendo.

LOL. THat logic never gets old <_<. So I guess Bit Trip Runner has better graphics than Uncharted since its a more recent PC game...

PC games only allow you to apply filtering, increase frame rate and up the dispaly resolution on the game. Arkham City Armored edtion actually has things added to the game that exist in no other version. More detailed textures, more objects, more geometry.

Unless this is patched into the PC version then the Wii U version will, indeed, be the best graphically.

You know how I know I'm a biased gamer? I owned an Xbox 360 and I bought some games like Bioshock before they went to the PS3. When the PS3 version came out, I said "Meh. That extra content is no big deal. That game is already old."

Now, with the Wii U getting late ports of certain games with some additional content (like this game and Ninja Gaiden--a series I play but don't even really enjoy that much), the differences are making these games "must play".
