General gaming news

lol you actually bought one? I am so glad I just stuck with my Game Boy, that thing was just... ultra fail.

[Tajin]

I think he regrets buying a Wii, I could be wrong ESL n' shit.

[Hitoshura]

Yeah that's exactly it, shouldn't have posted after drinking and before going to bed.

[Xavier]

I understood what you meant.

[Jefe]

I am more impressed at the PS2 selling that well, the thing it's almost dead (read:support). Are there even new games for the system? The only games I've heard are Persona 3:SE/4 (worthy at least).

The Wii is my biggest regret of all time in gaming. They could have just put SSBB on the GC and released an Online adapter of some sort.

And prime 3? And mario galaxy? And Zack and Wiki? And No more Heroes?

If you don't make use of your wii, that's your own problem

A third party putting a serious game on the Wii. Crazy.

[BRP]

PS2 still gets a lot of support. And people really need to release more FPS on the Wii, since point and shoot might be better than even drag and click. An online Wii FPS could be a lot of fun, I can't imagine it being too awesome with lag? I hope they don't Halo it up with their stupid bullet shooting system.

EDIT:

with epic titles like Mario Kart and Wii Fit

lol

Yeah I kind of prefer games with some replay value. No More Heroes was awesome but I can't see myself playing it more than twice. Same with Galaxy, and the others.

The millions who bought into this are going to be so pissed off when they find out Nintendo has no idea what they are going to do next after Wii Fit and Mario Kart Wii. They have already released most of their major first party games, minus DK and an actual Pokemon game. I know they aren't going to put out another Zelda and Mario game anytime soon, third-party is real scarce on making games for it since it mostly caters to casuals/non-gamers.

That's a huge assumption on thinking they don't know. WE don't know, but Nintendo has always been very secretive. One thing they have proven this generation, with their record breaking sales, is that they know what they're doing. They've also been in this business longer than anyone.

They are working on a Zelda game right now, no idea when it's coming out or what it will be. My bet is it will change form in a major way, every other major console Zelda game seems to.

Also, check out that thing I posted. Srsly.

[Exoduso]

The only game i'm really looking forward to hear from is that new Zelda game they claimed to have been working on since TP was released on the Wii.

[Hitoshura]

If they take Zelda back to the WW look, then it should be instawin. Other than that, I hope the "huge" announcement this year is an actual online full world Pokemon game. That would.. man I would actually hug my Wii.

Yeah I did check that out, someone was asking Atlus to localize it for some reason. (when they particularly do RPG's)

I hope so... Not only because of the way everything looked (cel shading ftmfw), but also because of how the game played out. I'm tired of that whole 3dungeons>zomgmastersword!>6dungeons>ganon formula. And I enjoyed TP very much, but it's just getting old. They can't expect people to buying it just because it's Zelda and just because they added a little twist this time (zelda gone okami.)

[Seditedi]

Next Wii Zelda should be pretty damn badass.
TP wasn't even a Wii game, just added Wii functionality for its release.
A Zelda designed from the ground up for Wii should be very good.

[BRP]

The next Zelda will be a sequel to TP.

Anyway, so there's a rumor that a Mortal Kombat vs DC is in the works. It sounds pretty fake, but there has been a poster(probably fake too). I wasn't going to bother mention it, but what the hell:

[Exoduso]

Not too much to expand on in the TP universe other than the whole Midna thing... Then again, that means a different formula, which will be good.

[Jefe]

^There are countless ways to save the princes, rite?

I've said this before and I will say it again: A Pokemon MMO would be the greatest game ever made.

Since leaving FFXI, I've sworn myself off MMOs, with the sole exception of if a Pokemon MMO is ever made. It would proceed to swallow my life.

[Exoduso]

Sadly lol. But at least Ganon is defeated in TP.

[BRP]

Not too much to expand [on]...

Just like Link's Awakening, Majora's Mask, and Phantom Hourglass?

I meant it as a good thing. It would have to be something original, like the ones you mentioned. I just hope it won't be as crappy as MM if they do decide to do a sequel to TP. >.>
