*cough*Wonderful101*cough*

Nintendo didn't create Wonderful 101

That was made by Platinum Games. They do mostly new IP games which all tend to be financial failures like

Vanquish
Bayonetta

Even while these were good games and critical successes.

The Wonderful 101 I don't think was even a critical success... so a miss for them. And absolutely not for me because of the overtly Power Rangers tone.


Nintendo owns the IP, so for all intents and purposes W101 is a Nintendo game 



Ah Yes, David Jaffe. The living legend of gaming himself. Totally an expert in "doing new shit" (if by new shit you mean God of War and Twisted Metal games).



Yeah because Sony and MS are the leading edge of innovation lawlz!!!!!!!!! at least Nintendo took a chance with the Wii U. Say what you want Nintendo has been more innovative than Sony or MS.

The funny thing is I think if Vanquish was a Wii U exclusive launch title that would've done OK. It would've gotten a lot of attention in the launch window to older early adopter if it had good reviews. Zombi U had a window there, but I think the mixed reviews hurt its chances. 

The Wonderful 101 ... I think the problem is right now, even kids don't want cartoony style games unless it's an established Nintendo/Disney/LEGO-ized movie brand. So in a weird way the character design worked against the game. 

Even on other platforms things like Puppeteer and LBP Karting and so on have bombed. 



I am pretty sure he did not say what is claimed in the thread title



“It appeared that there had even been demonstrations to thank Big Brother for raising the chocolate ration to twenty grams a week. And only yesterday, he reflected, it had been announced that the ration was to be reduced to twenty grams a week. Was it possible that they could swallow that, after only twenty-four hours? Yes, they swallowed it.”

i think chrono trigger was their best game from them, i was dissapointed with most of their final fantasy games.

anyway i was really satisfied with the game selection of the snes.
