Trust me, it won't be false. I hereby grant you permission to troll my wall if I am wrong.  I usually delete your flamebait wallposts but I won't if I turn out to be so horribly wrong . That's how confident I am.

What won't be false? So you think the WiiU wont get a game that uses UE4?

And how many of them did you buy ? Certainly not all 5 or rather if you did, you clearly didn't use the three years warranty extension Microsoft offered you.
While Bayonetta surely is a simliar case, it's not the same. Even though I agree that the hatred was too much and personally I never said that PS360 gamers were entitled to get the sequel.
I just said "wow that's a big one for WiiU".

But for now, 360s and PS3s are just as reliable as a Wiis.

 

As for this, it shouldn't really be up for debate. Either its on there and waiting for some kind of announcement or both nintendo and rockstar are shooting themselves in the foot. Nintendo especially. Rockstar are just missing out on more sales but nintendo have potentially blown one of the best moves they could have made before the competition got here. Even if it is multiplat if this happened day and date it would give nintendo a boost in the people who made the complaints in the first place. While it would never make the impact it would make if it were exclusive just having it is enough for them. Even if it is being late.

The problem here is this would have helped them claim some kind of path before the 360 2 and ps4 come out.

I don't think R* themselves will make the game without any kind of incentive from Nintendo, which is probably only money. I remember Iwata saying last year that Nintendo will make sure to get better third third party support, even if it means investing money, but that was probably only some PR talk, so take that as you will.

Hence why I said this, all you have is speculation while I have pointed proof to you. I don't think he edited all his post, I think you just completely made everything up.

Uh...right. All of his posts in that thread were "." ".." "exit" "no more". Lol. I mentioned lilbro as one example, there are more in that thread. And by hype I mean people who are looking forward to it and expressing it in an excited manner. That's what hype is.

"Seeing as Bayonetta 2 was hyped as something extremely major." Eleborate on this post then, if thats what you meant by hype.

I already have. It was hyped by Nintendo fans, and multiple threads were created around it, most of which reached several hundred replies. I wonder how you define hype, internet hype especially.

What's wrong with being hyped as the "second coming of christ" then?

Don't put words in my mouth. Nothing is wrong with it, but the point remains that it was hyped. And Nintendo saved it for last during their presentation, which the big three usually do if they have something exciting to announce. That tells me Bayonetta was the biggest they could secure for now. They can't spend all their money on one game (GTAV)

Whoops sorry I meant what's wrong with being hyped as the "second coming" then? So if there is nothing wrong with it why did you even mention it?  Like I said you just sound upset lol.

Lol, you tell me. You said "if it turns out to be false". If what...?

"The point here was that devs won't wait for PS4/720, but evidence does exist that they are waiting." That's what you said. I guess you are saying that will be true, so if it isn't I wonder if you will own up to it?

I used the warranty for the third and fourth one because of how late I bought it so I did get some for free. For bayonetta its not really aimed at you more the guys on twitter who threatened the developer.

you know, i could take this whole thread and to a find a replace all on wii U for vita and GTA for monster hunter...

anyhoo, nintendo has stated before that they refuse to put even a dime into getting a game.  i think that's a bad stance but who am i to judge.  point is...rockstar like capcom are doing what they think is best for them with the resources they have available.  and both companies couldn't care less about the wii U or vita...and why would they?  they have their own finances and stock prices to manage.

I don't know why anyone is surprised in here.

It's obvious that they don't launch with a PC version. No 3D GTA ever did that. (Dunno how it was in the PS1 era)
The game has been in development for 5 years when it comes out, why delay it any further just to have a WiiU version at launch.
Then just because WiiU gets late ports of high quality HD games like Batman Arkham City, Mass Effect 3 and Assassin's Creed 3, these future WiiU owners fell like they're entitled to get GTA V. Be happy about those ports. You're not entitled to get anything from third parties, especially old games. But instead the bitching continues.

Also how could anyone think this is a fake ? 3 years ago maybe, but only days before we get all informations in a magazine ? Nope.

Lol wait they should be happy that they get year old games and not the new ones the day they come out? You sound crazy!!! lol. 

Because those are the best third party games from this year and the last one. There's not equal third party game on the Wii of the same high standards.
Now you insist on getting new games that have been in the production for ages even though the WiiU is not even out !

Where are the Final Fantasy games from last gen for 360 ? They got the online FFXI but why not FFXII even though the 360 was already out at that time ?
Knights of the Old Republic for PS3 ? Surely if they manage to get ME1 on PS3, there must be a way to get them on a different platform.
etc.

Be happy about what you get instead of being unhappy what you don't get.

Lol the hell do I look like some 5 year old. if I feel a game should be on more than just the ps3 ad 360 im entited to feel like that and its valid. We don't know whether or not they could do it in time for an april launch, but if they could then they should have. I have a ps3 and 360 and will get it regardless though if it came on the wiiu at the same time I would be more likely to get that version. People are allowed to be upset if this is true they shouldn't expect constant late prots especially from the bigger publishers.

Its obvious they are investing more money. They have monster hunter exclusive (probably timed) and bayonetta 2. So I can't see that being pr. It basically builds on the main point I made earlier. If they really haven't got gta v at all then they shouldn't even bother scooping up the likes of assassin's creed, darksiders or mass effect. Those developers are likely to come up with excuses later. It would make more sense to go visit konami or square enix about their big games. Japanese publishers tend to be very supportive of nintendo anyway. Just building on what they get best should be enough for them.

Thats why I am convinced it is on there. Not merely because they kept quiet so long only to state the blindingly obvious. Because it defies all sense in the way nintendo have gone about this.



One more thing to complete my year = senran kagura localization =D

VGKing on 28 October 2012

I just hope Xbox 360 doesn't get timed-exclusive DLC this time.
If anyone should get it, it would be the PS3. Rockstar owes them that much for the vaporware called Agent.

I don't think Nintendo invested money on MH, maybe Tri G but definitely not 4. Nintendo is publishing Bayonetta 2 so there's that one.

But other than those 3 games (maybe just two) I can't think of any other game atm. Nintendo doesn't have a "good" (I put that loosely because I don't consider it a bad thing) record in investing money on other devs games. Nintendo have to do it in other to gather more "hardcore" gamers. They have a lot of money so I don't see why they can't do it just for GTA5 (one of the biggest games out there that is). It worked for MS in long run so Nintendo should do it at least for this one game.

What makes you think devs aren't already working on PS4/720 games? All the hints are right there. Why would Epic make UE4 and why aren't they making it for the Wii U?

Actually, there was a rumor fairly recently that Epic, upon seeing Retro's WiiU engine, did reconsider personally bringing UE4 to the console.  Not sure if that was officially confirmed, though.

OT:  Let's say GTA5 releases for PS360 in May.  A simultaneous WiiU launch wouldn't stop the vast majority of current HD console owners from just buying those versions anyway.  Releasing a bit later for WiiU - perhaps along with the PC version - wouldn't be the end of the world for WiiU-only owners.  An official announcement at E3'12 in June would be great, highlighting possible Gamepad functionality.
