If its true that PilotWings and RogueSquadron are both completed then I am pretty upset at LucasArts and Nintendo for not getting these games to store shelves. One of my favorite GameCube games was RogueSquadron:RogueLeader and based on Factor5's history of AAA+ games I'm pretty sure both titles are up to snuff quality wise. Nintendo and LucasArts are probubly just avoiding a gamble but Nintendo could use every AAA+ game they can get and same goes for LucasArts!

Monster Hunter: pissing me off since 2010.

They abandoned Nintendo, such is the fate of all companies that do, I mean when was the last time people were really interested in a Silicon Knights or Rare game?

I never really noticed that but yeah. Sure seems like companies that leave Nintendo don't seem to fair so well. Did you also notice that all three companies pretty much jumped ship for the similar concepts. More power.



Squilliam: On Vgcharts its a commonly accepted practice to twist the bounds of plausibility in order to support your argument or agenda so I think its pretty cool that this gives me the precedent to say whatever I damn well please.

Ye gods, that Superman game looked awesome (never mind Pilotwings!) and it breaks my Supes-lovin' heart that we'll never play it!

It implies that Nintendo had a heavy hand in their success.  Not surprising.  Look at how much impact Miyamoto had on Retro's concept of Metroid Prime.
