If only that wasnt true.

I am sure i will enjoy it though. It looks like alot of fun.

Because they didn't read it.

DT is everyone's favorite punching bag, and often when you try to honestly convey what's really promising about the game, you just get lots of posts like "looks like shit. rofl can't believe Nintendo fans would buy this". So you need some satire to draw someone's attention in only to make them go "Wait, there's something more here". Once you see that, you can see there's a genuine shot at this game actually blowing everyone away. I'm serious. 

I'd rather have a developer totally nail the gameplay first and improve the graphics later. That would seem to be something of the methodology Nintendo would typically favor.  As opposed to what likely occurred with Killzone where you make a really pretty game and polish the gameplay later on. 

I don't think Nintendo's internal teams are so careless to adopt a new project if it couldn't possibly live up to the high quality standards Nintendo typically sets. Itagaki's track record (Ninja Gaiden, Dead or Alive) is just too good to just presume the game will be terrible. Also consider Danny Bilson's (The THQ exec who initiated the project) high praise, expectations, ambitions for the title.

Which is exactly what everyone was saying after its reveal even Nintendo fans. Until they started talking more about it and the multiplayer stuff showed up it was looking pretty damm bad. The concepts and how batshit inasne the multiplayer looks to be are what started making people hopeful.

CONGRATRULATIONS your sarcasm is about 10 years too late.

FPS have fuck all impact on NIntendo these days.  Look at COD as an example. The crowd is gone, there is only a fair few of us left who care for the genre.

I'm one of the few, but the Wiimote has ruined me for dual analogue FPS games, it feels so obsolete now, using thumbsticks to aim.

they still have wiimote support.

I know, but they're not being made any more.

I hope it's moderately successful. Enough to warrant a sequel but weak enough that the price drops fairly quickly.

I lol'ed at the online part, that was brilliant!

4. Because its Nintendo
6. Because it doesn't deserve to be successful

Sadly, those 2 points make up pretty much the modern mainstream mentality. Since its a Nintendo game and not on their console of choice they believe the game has no right to sell well. Such an incredibly dumb mind set which is why the gaming industry is stagnant and stale.

As for my thoughts about the game.... Im still not sold on it. Even though I am not a graphics whore, to me they look just OK. And I feel the multiplayer will overshadow the single player.
