Post by: Cerveza mas fina on January 22, 2013, 05:28:08 PM
27 pages on Gaf already, classic nintendo fan stuff. How big of a wednesdayton will this be?

I predict:
-smash trailer
-mario kart announcement

Nothing new ofc. Also mario kart will look like mario kart wii but in hd. Not even as good as sonic kart.

Miiverse stuff, maaaybe if we're lucky we'll get concrete plans for the WiiU VC. Highly doubt there's gonna be anything as megaton as a Smash trailer.

It's not going to change on of you losers' minds, that's for sure. :lol

I think we might get to see more of Bayo 2 and maybe Monolith's Wii U game. No Smash, too early. Will gladly eat crow if I'm wrong on that one.

Double dip on Tekken and we can play online via the best online game service in the Biz!

Anyway, as for the announcement, I don't know. Personally, I think there'll be something new of moderate excitement, but I'm largely just expecting release dates on the stuff we already know about.

i think that's because they don't want to put the prerendered backgrounds in HD without touching them up.  When you play it in Dolphin, it looks good but the character model stands out a lot from the background.

@Oscar Wouldn't Mother be a good thing to announce in order to help the J-market? Isn't it a decent franchise over there?

I mean, I imagine a Mother collection in the vein of the Kirby and Mario Wii ones, as barebones as it would be, would be enough to act as a "salve." Certainly it'd be better than nothing.

that'll never see the light of day in america

If Project X Zone and all the Op Rainfall games can, so can Mother.

The way people use it, you'd think SM3DL, MK7, and MH3G magically appeared out of nowhere the day Nintendo cut 3DS' price.  It's nonsense.  In all likelihood, Nintendo will just have to ride out poor Wii U sales for at least the next couple quarters, with no price drop.
Title: Re: How crap will tommorows Nintendo event be?
Post by: Tasty on January 23, 2013, 01:53:11 AM
Actually NSMB2 was even more rushed  and reactionary than SM3DL and MK7 were. Panic mode Nintendo at its worst.

Panic mode Nintendo is nice for when Nintendo is doing something third party/console service wise you don't like, and then seeing them try and fix it. 3DS OS has come a ways since release and I don't doubt they believe it a business priority to get the Wii U's shit in order.

They didn't appear out of nowhere, but there's no question they were rushed to completion. 

I hate memes of any sort that catch on, particularly among gamers, the most insufferable of all human beings, but there is at least some truth to the "panic mode" thing.  Nintendo is at their best when they've got someone's boot on their neck.  Happy Nintendo leads to shit like the back half of the Wii's lifespan, cartridges on the N64, ten years of black and white Game Boy, New Super Mario Bros. 2, and $15 Pokedex apps. 

But that's the thing though, they *were* in development long before the 3DS started showing a weak performance. Nintendo's state of panic seemed to have no bearing on their scope/quality (except an adverse one?), all they did was probably strategize their announcements and release dates better as you suggested.

I love Wind Waker, beat it 5 times, but I don't see the point in an HD remake. Unless you are going to take the time to flesh out that troublesome middle section of the game and add a difficulty option to it.

Plus, the artstyle of the original still holds up and you can still play it on your Wii.

To be clear, I don't necessarily contest that having something to prove can't motivate them to get their ass in gear. The effort to steer the 3DS back on track wasn't anything to sneeze at. What I simply reject is the hyperbole that some suggest where Nintendo sees a couple of bad quarters of financial data, and the nuclear option follows. Iwata and Miyamoto turn the keys simultaneously, hit the emergency red button, and the magic ensues.

As for today's announcement, I'm not going to scoff at it, but I get the feeling that I'd be a lot more excited about it if I particularly cared for JRPGs.

+VC for Wii U, rebuy all your games at discount price! Oh and no Genesis/TGfx16/N64/C64/Arcade. Just NES, SNES, and GBA.

:-\

What a joke.

I know this is holing out for too much but I hope they unify purchases between 3DS and Wii U.

now, now, nobody was excited for NG Trilogy.  Wish I had been, it's worth a mint now.

As a huge fan of the consoles whose mom gave away his NES to a second cousin or something, I was pretty excited for it! Definitely appreciated the password feature too.

Also, Fire Emblem x SMT? Whoaaaaa...

Remember when we joked about Nintendo making us rebuy virtual console games?

Well, at least there's a discount
*migration fee*



I wanna make fun of this, but I think we're looking at our PS4/720 future as well (IF 360/PS3 stuff is BC) Sony and MS will probably charge a weird migration fee as well.

I guess don't understand the price discrepancy between NES and SNES games.  They are both absolutely tiny :lol   $1-$1.50 for each is pretty lame.  fuck nintendo.

more info on Virtual Console

-save state (3DS has this with NES games)
-Miiverse is somehow worked in
-off-TV play on the tablet
-nes, snes, and gba for now

then there's something called the trial campaign, and from what I can tell it's renting virtual console games for 30 cents.  the games change every month.  so, in May the game is Super Metroid.  For 30 cents you can play it for the days in May (or 30 days after the purchase period)

How are the changes that Nintendo will add dungeons to Wind Waker? Would mean they'd have to admit that the original game was only half finished, so probably slim. Otherwise it's probably one of the last games that needs a HD port.

they admitted the water temple of oot had problems when it was rejiggered for oot 3ds.  but they basically added some textures to make it mote intuitive.  fixing wind waker would require a lot of work during the triforce hunt.

there are other ways to improve it.  like, put a map on the tablet and on-screen buttons to change wind direction instead of using the wind waker.

So, you can only buy those Wii U games for $1-1.50 if you already own them on Wii or whatever? This isn't a "new, permanent low price" thing?

yeah, it's a discount if you own them on the wii.  I transferred my wii stuff to my wii u last week and it transfers shop data as well.

You have to transfer them from Wii to WiiU for the new price to appear, which is how it does the check I assume. Because we all know that their account system is garbage. So you will more or less have 2 copies of your VC games on your system.

The localization of Xeno is definitely going to take more than 6 months, in fact it'll probably be a MH3G type deal of like a year and a bit more.

I'm just hoping they won't de-confirm it for America now that they've put it front and center on their own YouTube channel and their ND.

http://www.nintendo.com/wiiu/downloads/virtual-console/

maybe I was mistaken.  it reads like more like a sale than the 30 day rental thing people were saying.

Quote
July 15, 2013 is the 30th anniversary of the launch of the Family Computer (Famicom), known as the Nintendo Entertainment System (NES™) in the United States. In anticipation of the launch of the Virtual Console service on Wii U this Spring, Nintendo will celebrate the anniversary by releasing a Virtual Console title each month at a 30-day special reduced price of 30 cents*.

* After specified promotional period, each game will be made available in the Nintendo eShop at regular price. Wii U owners who have purchased the game(s) during the promotional period will not need to purchase the game(s) again at the regular price. Games purchased during this promotional period are eligible for 2 points in the Deluxe Digital Program. Point value subject to change.

also, allegedly, wii u virtual console lets you remap buttons.  presumably to offset the issue of the swapped right analog/face buttons.

Yeah, that's what I meant. Performance improvements by nature are incremental, you can't just flip a switch and suddenly the system turns into greased lightning. My original estimate was that it would take a year of patches every few months to get it to decent levels.

Right yeah, that's true. However we'll definitely get lots of WW HD footage. And I do think they'll show something of Smash, but it may not be very much. Maybe just a trailer showing some new additions.

I also do think Retro's game will make an appearance. Would be nice if it was a 2013 game; DKCR was released the same year as it was announced.

X was the most interesting announcement of the bunch and kinda reminds me of when the 360 star ocean game was first shown. Hopefully it will be better than that game.

Xenoblade was already a far better game than anything Tri-Ace has done in forever, so I'm not worried about that.

Well that is good to hear so i'll keep a eye out.


Everything else?  :yuck

Again, this was Nintendo telling its public to wait. “I apologise to those supporting Wii U for the lack of new titles during January and February,” implored Iwata early on in the presentation. “But please understand we will have new titles to offer from March onwards.” It can promise and tease all it wants, but Nintendo’s fiercely loyal fanbase is growing uneasy. Not to mention impatient.

Meanwhile, PC and mobile continue their inexorable rise, and Microsoft and Sony prepare to unveil their next-generation consoles. 2013 could be the year in which the videogame landscape is utterly transformed, more quickly and more viciously than anyone could have forecast.

As ever, people are confusing those who have interest in video games with those who have interest in Nintendo products.  They're not really overlapping categories.  Nintendo will be fine, they will just never be relevant again for anyone other than Nintendo fans.

The only stuff announced was:

- Yoshi Yarn
- SMT x Fire Emblem
- Xenoblade 2
- Pictures of wind Waker HD

+VC for Wii U, rebuy all your games at discount price! Oh and no Genesis/TGfx16/N64/C64/Arcade. Just NES, SNES, and GBA.

:-\

What a joke.

I know this is holing out for too much but I hope they unify purchases between 3DS and Wii U.

They showed some good stuff and I'll get a JPN Wii U in a year or two after revisions and price drops and Bayo 2/XB2 coming out. 

But man, they also made GAF unreadable for the next few months as Nfans froth at the mouth chest beating about their superior console.

I didn't say it shouldn't be worth playing and I'm sure this will own as it's an addition of two great franchises. But Persona is its own series, and SMT is its own series and Devil Summoner is its own series. I don't know where you're going with this. My point is, even as a fan of say, Nobunaga's Ambition I didn't buy Pokemon Conquest because well...it's not really Nobunaga, even if it features familiar characters, so I don't really give a crap. I almost always feel that way about strategy rpg cross over series. You don't see me hyping up about X-whatever for 3ds even though it may possibly have Ryo Hazuki.

But alas, it's SMT, so I'm sure it'll be great AGAIN.

The graphics in Wind Waker HD are a negligible concern on my part, I'm much more concerned how they attend the multitude of issues that made Wind Waker ultimately a babby game with tedious collection pursuits.  The ocean needs to have enemies that require your attention, as often you just sail right past whatever octoroks/etc pop up.  Difficulty needs to be in line with Skyward Sword.  The only time I died in Wind Waker was when I was curious what the GAME OVER screen looked like and let a baba chew on me for a few minutes.  So populate the ocean and make combat contain genuine risk and they have my interest.  Also, needs more dungeons and a few larger islands to flesh out the concept.  Touchscreen managment is an obvious welcome inclusion, and of course the wind changing mechanism should be easily fixed.  It would be interesting if they could make sailing more involving in some other way, but I'm not sure how they could emulate the nuances of real world sailing without making it a chore.

Post by: EmCeeGrammar on January 24, 2013, 04:58:16 PM
Yeah, for reals.  I think the anticipation is another case of savoring nostalgia for too long without, y'know, actually replaying the game sometime in the last 10 years.
However, Eiji saying he wanted to tackle the conception that zelda games need to be single player has me hoping the next installment will be akin to the design philosophies of the New Super Mario series.

edit:
Also, what bums me more than anything is that I didn't see a catalyst for userbase growth in this lineup.  The WiiU is faltering, and despite what nerd say I felt the Wii's success gave way to a nice variety of software over the years that I personally enjoyed.  By comparison this trajectory seems to suggest  a gamecube situation with drastically less third party support.
