I can't help it, I love the bad girls of Shu.

That Guan Suo chick is pretty cute, I must say.

Yeah, those sporty tomboy types are foxy.

You've missed something...

4. Nintendo is undoubtedly using their franchises to entice publishers to support the Wii U. SMTxFE with Atlus, Hyrule Warriors with Tecmo Koei. Namco Bandai working on Smash Bros.

They started doing this with the Mario & Sonic games, letting Sega use the Mario franchise. Sega's relationship with Nintendo is strong, now, and I'm confident that we'll continue to see exclusives from Sega. Also notable was Pokemon x Nonabuga's Ambition (AKA Pokemon Conquest), with Tecmo Koei (actually, Nintendo seems to be quite close to Tecmo Koei already - Metroid: Other M, Fatal Frame franchise, plus Nintendo publishing Ninja Gaiden 3 outside of Japan).

But it's Hyrule Warriors that establishes this as a pattern. Remember that, when SMTxFE was announced, back in January, Iwata said it's just one of the crossovers that they have in the works. Well, I'm expecting more, and from various different publishers. Here's my picks for what I'd like to see...

Square Enix: Dragon Quest x Pokemon
Marvelous: Animal Crossing x Harvest Moon
Activision: Battalion Wars x Call of Duty
Ubisoft: Rayman x Star Fox (sounds absurd at first, but think about it)
Capcom: Mega Man x Metroid
Konami: Silent Hill x Eternal Darkness?

inability of Cao Cao to do anything right.

Yeah. I guess that's why Wei wins. You are probably a Shu loving scumbag.

Xiahou Dun GAR manly man-ness is what leads Wei to victory. Liu Bei had no chance.

 

OT, I am looking forward to this more than any previous Zelda games, so that's something.

I'll tell you why is not exciting: a remake/hd port in 2013 and a spin-off in 2014 just kill any hope to see the real game at holiday 2014. I just don't know what the fuck is Nintendo doing. Their console is flopping, delaying games, useless spin-offs.

3 years after SS was perfect for a good game and they are enough incompetent to develop it. But it's ok. Nintendo Logic.

Or it has absolutely nothing to do with when the game will launch.

Do you really believe that if Nintendo has the new Zelda game finished before the end of 2014 that they will hold onto the game for an entire year just because of an HD port and spin off in 2013/2014?

Nintendo has actually let 3rd parties use there franchises for a long time

Sega made F-Zero GX
Namco made Star Fox Assault
Capcom made Zelda Oracle of Ages/Seasons and Minish Cap


Yes, but all of those happened two gens ago. Nintendo hasn't done this very often as of late.

Except the Mario&Sonic-games, SMTxFE, and Smash Bros (developed by NamcoBandai).

 

Anyways, it's obvious, that these cooperations happen only with japanese companies. It's time to cooperate with western devs. And I know the ideal candidate for this. A company that already cooperates with Nintendo even on WiiU and games that sell well on Nintendo-consoles. You heard it here first...

I still think this is horrible.

It's simply Dinasty warriors with Link as a playable character. I don't know what the name Zelda is doing there. They could at least make a new engine and refresh some elements and make some zelda mechanics available on an action beat 'em up, but this is Dinasty Warriors undercover.

That's why it stinks, badly.


The only reason Dynasty Warriors get's flak is because they make so many games. In reality, each entry is a solid standalone game, certainly far from badly stinking.
