Nah, this is pretty much general industry knowledge at this rate.

Still frustrating.

BLARGH

Still, fuck 'em. We've got Monster Hunter Tri Unlimited, which should tide me over for most of next year (that and Fire Emblem).

I'm going to go out on a limb and say never say never.  I don't see how this article is cause to complain.  If anything, I think it's a good sign that Nintendo is trying to convince third parties to take WiiU seriously and not just "casualize" it.  Granted it will be a tough challenge, but I think Nintendo can pull it off this time.

Sales of this "hardcore" games will determine the future faith of the Wii U. If Tekken Tag Tournament doesn't sell, Harada will probably go talk to Nintendo and say: "See, this complicated hardcore games don't sell on the casual Nintendo console" and thus the chain reaction begins and third party games won't be made.

Wow what a joke. These 3rd parties really have no fucking clue.

You're gonna lose alot of limbs that way. I think we'll just have to see what Nintendo considers most important: Profit or fan loyalty. I think the Wii handled it self pretty well but there was just too much shovelware/kiddy stuff, which in turn did bring in the money.

Obviously they can do both, especially with titles like Mario, The legend of Zelda, metroid, etc well established franchises that will appeal to long time fans, but will we see more new IP/games like Xenoblade chronicles, the conduit, Monster Hunter that are targeted to full-time gamers(Basic criteria: Long games, online component)? We shall see. Either way, I don't want a tablet in my gaming console, so I'm passing UNLESS a massive online Pokemon adventure game or Super Mario RPG sequel (NOT PAPER MARIO) comes out.

You see I guess thats the thing, you spent the entire thread shitting on 3rd parties but end on a note about playing Monster Hunter Tri Unlimited.

No different than Obama bashing wallstreet fat cats, then goes to NY and has an expensive fundraiser featuring those very clients.

That is discounting the fact that it released months earlier on other platforms and completely bombed on them.

But you're absolutely right, it will be used as fuel to down-play the Wii U in the future.

Only voice of reason in the entire thread (probably).

If a person is as honest as that guy he doesn't deserve any hate really. LOL at some people calling the entire 3rd party industry names because of this little "incident".

Really not as hypocritical as you think. I spend the thread bashing third parties who treat Nintendo audiences like they're second-class citizens, and then demonstrate how i'm willing to buy and spend a lot of time playing a third party game that doesn't do that.
