Could hardly have said it better.

The announcement trailer sucked balls. Most people began to change their mind as the creative levels were shown.

You make alot of good points, but I just don't think anything will make the Wii-U a commercial success. I've seen things like this before with Dreamcast and Gamecube. The Gamecube had alot of great games. Some of them could make top 10 greatest games of all time list. But the system never picked up in sales because at that time, consumers just wanted something else instead. That's my argument. That consumers just want other things right now.

People wanting a Galaxy 3 need to check themselves at the door anyway. We do NOT need yet another "Mario in space", gravity/platetoid physics game. The first one was amazing. The second was an unnecessary "Lost Levels" type of excercise. A third in the same vein would be pointless, except for "them graphics".

It's ironic how people complain that the 2D Mario games, for example, are "always the same", yet they want a third helping of "more of the same" with a third Galaxy game.


Quite frankly, while I was initially disappointed that this wasn't my dream "Epic 3D reimagining Mario 3" type game, which I may or may not actually ever get, I quickly got over my disappointment and even during E3 was gaining enthusiasm for this game. So I've always thought it looked fun and was on board with it. Now the rest of the gaming world (or at least a good majority) have caught up with that sentiment. Sure, they could've shown more at that first reveal video........but what ever happened to saving some things for surprise? Personally, I'm glad that a lot of this game is still going to be unspoiled for me (even though you have to avoid spoiler videos on the internet left and right).

So glad to see this (although I JUST missed earning points in the prediction league).

Proud to say I was on board from day one. The game looks great and I can't wait to experience it for myself.

Too bad GTAV is rated 97 for both ps3 and 360 versions.

In tbone's defense, a game released on September 17th doesn't exactly qualify as a holiday title (although the game will undoubtedly sell well over the holidays).

Yes because a game released in summer clearly counts as a holiday game. Read the thread's title. o_O

i was wrong... i thought it will be pan by the critics...

but i never doubted this game to be good :) ok maybe a little bit...

But Wii U has: "Accomplishments" and you can only post then on MiiVerse

and I don't know if 3D World will have, but Mass Effect 3, Deus-Ex, Injustice and others have
