Did I ever tell you that the game is kind of mediocre? :-\
Title: Re: 11/22/13
Post by: Bebpo on November 21, 2013, 07:47:45 PM: Would rather buy a Wii U and Mario than another Zelda game. That franchise can DIAF after Skyward Sword and Phantom Tracks. Worst games I've wasted dozens of hours of my life on and regret horribly. Those also got 10s. I do not trust anyone reviewing a Zelda game, ever. And I certainly do not trust Nintendo Zelda team with making a non-tedious, actually fun, actually good game anymore. They haven't made one of those since Majora's Mask.

Tempted to buy a Wii U but $350 is still a fuck lot. Add in another $100 for Mario 3d World and Wonderful 101 and that's $$$. Makes me want to wait until next year.

I trust Nihon Falcom's history over Media Molecule......
Title: Re: 11/22/13
Post by: Bebpo on November 21, 2013, 07:51:55 PM: It's not terrible, because yeah Falcom is a good dev. But it's like Ys Seven but worse in almost every way and that was already a step back from Oath or even Origins. Celceta is not bad, not great, just kind of meh Ys title.
Title: Re: 11/22/13
Post by: demi on November 21, 2013, 07:54:05 PM: Wii U is $300 retail, by the way - and I think some retailers are doing bundles for $250. I dont find Black Friday deals to be exciting enough, so I am buying one. I planned on buying one this holiday, anyway. The Xbox falling in my lap was a divine intervention - I did not plan for it at all.

The plan does not change. I am buying Wii U.
Title: Re: 11/22/13
Post by: Bebpo on November 21, 2013, 07:58:08 PM: Really? I googled and the "deluxe" version of the system with some actual storage was $350, with some deals for $330 and some bundled versions with NSMB Wii U + NSMB Wii U Luigi.

If I can get Wii U deluxe + NSMB Wii U + NSMB Wii U Luigi for <$300 I'll probably bite. And if there's any deals on Wonderful 101 and/or Pikmin 3 I'd bite on those two. NSMB, W101, Pikmin, Mario 3d World, Bayo2 are the only Wii U games I want through 2014.
Title: Re: 11/22/13
Post by: demi on November 21, 2013, 08:00:08 PM: You're getting jew'd - it is $300 MSRP period. All bundles out now. Zelda Bundle, Mario Bundle, NintendoLand bundle...

Any "special" retailer bundles are just that.

Post by: demi on November 21, 2013, 08:06:20 PM: TOYS R US is doing B1G1 40%off all 3DS/WiiU games as well. FRIDAY AND SATURDAY ONLY

You can get ZELDA and MARIO - or whatever else you want
Title: Re: 11/22/13

I'm tempted to get one for Mario but will probably wait

Title: Re: 11/22/13
Post by: Smooth Groove on November 21, 2013, 08:24:14 PM: $300 for just Mario?

:kobeyuck

I'll just wait for clearance
Title: Re: 11/22/13
Post by: cool breeze on November 21, 2013, 08:24:34 PM: first half it's the usual franchises (barring delays): mario kart, smash bros, donkey kong. maybe bayonetta 2 ???
entire 2014: X/Xenoblade 2

Nintendo announces games closer to release these days.
Title: Re: 11/22/13
Post by: demi on November 21, 2013, 08:27:08 PM: I'm not getting just for Mario, tho.

Want to play:

- Pikmin 3
- Mario 3D
- NSMB/NSLU
- W101
- Donkey Kong
- Bayo 2
- Zelda HD
- ZombiU
- Fire Emblem/SMT
- X
Title: Re: 11/22/13
Post by: Smooth Groove on November 21, 2013, 08:29:50 PM: That's not too bad. I'm not gonna complain about Nintendo rehashing since I pretty much skipped over most of the Wii titles. I only played Wind Walker a little so that's another bonus.
Title: Re: 11/22/13
Post by: Bebpo on November 21, 2013, 08:43:41 PM: Oh shit, I forgot about X and Wii U's region locked isn't it? Fuck. They need to hack this sucker open ASAP.

Maybe they'll be cool and include the JPN voice track on US version of X...when it comes out a year later ;_;

Post by: Olivia Wilde Homo on November 21, 2013, 09:57:04 PM: I would hold off on buying the Wii U. If the 3D World/Mario Kart 8 1-2 punch fails to reboot sales, Nintendo will go into full panic mode, which may mean a big ass price drop to $200 or some shit. Just be patient.

Nintendo's kinda dumb tho, they'll probably bundle a Wiimote and Wii60 controller and raise the price to $350.
Title: Re: 11/22/13
Post by: Eel O'Brian on November 21, 2013, 10:10:49 PM: Drop the tablet controller and replace with a wiimote, remove all online and storage capabilities, rename it Wii U Mini, price it at $249
Title: Re: 11/22/13

Fuck the Wiimote. Fuck it to hell and back.

That's more of Sony's MO than Nintendo's.

I wouldn't know...I skipped all that shit. This is the first Zelda game I've looked forward to trying since...Link's Awakening, probably.

Post by: Bebpo on November 21, 2013, 11:26:51 PM: I haven't even opened my Wii U and I'm already feeling buyer's remorse as I realize that after NSMB Wii, NSMB 2 3DS, and Super Mario Land 3DS in such a short span of time, I'm actually kind of burnt out on Mario Platforming and the thought of 3 games worth of it is -_-

I need to keep reminding myself of Wonderful 101 and Bayo2 next year!

1) Have to spend another $50 for Wii U component cables and play in stereo audio

2) Play using the audio coming from my TV set (stereo) instead of my sound system/speakers.

God, I fucking hate Nintendo's ass backward's hardware.

Post by: Joe Molotov on November 22, 2013, 12:03:12 AM: Super Mario 3D World is gonna be worth it, bebs. It will be. It has to be.....has to be... :stahp

spoiler (click to show/hide)
But if not, you can still get ~$300 for Mario/Luigi Wii U bundles on fleaBay. Some lucky kiddo could be waking up with your Wii U on Christmas morn!
