Also, tangent, but people need to stop saying this. We know tons about the NX. A man who see's nothing and hears nothing isn't alone. He's just blind and deaf. Or worse, he's just covering his ears and closing his eyes. If you choose to ignore the tons of info and hints we've learned about the NX until the thing is out and all of it is "officially" confirmed, that's your prerogative. Stop trying to pass it off as though it should be everyone elses.

Please tell me what NX it, so I can qoute you next year on it and we will see.

 

 

OT: I dont know. In my opinion all the rumors are wrong.

Nintendo/Zelda got alot cristism after the game awards (as they showed gameplay) because of the empty world. I think they dedicded to change that, so it just need 1 full year more development.

Pokken could be the may game.

If you care that much about "quoting me," look through my post history. I've said enough on the topic in hundreds of other threads not to have to reiterate it again for you here in much less detail.



I have been saying this for awhile now ever since the hype of Splatoon and how well that game was received. With Xenoblade, Star Fox,Mario Maker, Woolly World, and Mario Tennis as their final major releases, then splash in Devils Third, and Fatal Frame for the year, I said a May release will happen. It makes sense because they want to keep this trend going to keep interest in the WiiU.
Iwata, rest in peace brotha, 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻👼🏻👼🏻👼🏻saw that this would work well.
P.S. I miss the Directs 😪😪😪 and Iwata

Assuming it comes in the summer,

In terms of sales........... Hahahaha ..... No. Zelda is not typically a huge seller like mario, cod, gta, and pokemon, and that is not changing with the wii u.

In terms of reviews, maybe but I wouldn't hold my breath seeing as how it's a huge open world hd game that has to outperform current and upcoming rpg's such as witcher 3 and fallout 4


Man sounds just like what we heard about Splatoon. love NintenNOers

In terms of reviews, splatoon is just a decent game, nothing special. Zelda has a good chance to wow everyone with reviews, but hd development + open world + competition from fallout and witcher 3 leave me skeptical. I would say it has to cross a 90% metacritic threshold.

In terms of sales, unless a game sells above 5 million copies, I really don't consider it a blockbuster so much as I do a good selling game. Many games have sold over a million and have been deemed flops, and while that may not be the case for splatoon, I set 5 million copies as a threshold. Seeing as how skyward sword is nowhere near 5 million, I doubt zelda wii u would reach that.

And no, this isn't me being biased against the wii u, given how smash and bayonetta 2 pass the reviews threshold, and mario kart 8 passes the sales threshold (all of which is done in 2014)

Don't want to tell you in 2-3 sentences. You're the one who wants information. I couldn't care less.



Well its Pokken that's the big summer game, but hey, at least its on Wii U and not the over speculated NX ;)

Thread over. The May game is Pokkén Tournament I'm afraid.

Dont be afraid, its good to see Wii U getting support. Im also confident Zelda will be Wii U bound.
