One thing I have to give Nintendo credit for is not instantly charging 60.00 for every single game like the other 2 did. Many early Ps3/360 games really didn't deserve the 60.00 price tag
Of course many people wont let the cheaper games or free online get in the way of their hate.
I've seen some really outrageous post since the price drop was announced.


Not sure what you are eluding to, however when Sony and/or Microsoft remade games in HD they sold them for $40, not $50 like Nintendo or $60 like you are claiming.

 

This is the short list:

 

Halo Anniversary was $40

God of War Saga was $40

Ratchet Collection was $40

Sly Collection was $40

ICO/SoTC Collection was $40

God of War Origins was $40


I think I made it pretty clear what I was talking about and it wasnt HD remakes because those werent around at the start of the generation.

Nice fail though

Oh and how horrible of Nintendo to charge 10 more for what amounts to more than just an HD graphics upgrade like the games you mentioned..lmao

Like I've predicted and described repeatedly, Nintendo is merging their portable and home console strats. So, the prices will reflect that.

I think Nintendo is just taking advantage of the Mario name and are charging $60 for 3D world instead of $50.

What is the normal price of Wii U games anyway?

$60

Well in that case I don't understand why DKC is $50. Maybe they don't expect the game to sell well? Don't think that's the reason.

Software sales mimic hardware sales. Horrible on both sides. With a $60 price tag those would do worse.

Wii Party U comes with Wiimote+

So that is debatable.

There is a Wiimote++? Or does it just come with a controller?

If that's the case, one has to argue quality and cost to develop. DKCRTF already has an engine, and was clearly a quick job by Retro to make an early title for the Wii U. It will probably be awesome, just saying, like New Super Mario Bros. it's quick and cheap to develop.

Wii Party U might not be much more of a game then Wii Play was.


It's a Wiimote that has the Wii motion+ thingy inside it.

To be honset I don't remember why I quoted you.

I'm still 100% convinced that donkey was actually a 3DS game this time last year, so good!

Zelda should be 40 max.

To repeat yourself.

Anyway, who cares, be happy.

Wind Waker is a bit much though, most HD remakes are $40.

That cover is outstanding.  It is so good it will sell copies and maybe even Wii U's.  And I mean that seriously.
