You can tell Ubisoft's WiiU reconfirmation boils down to "hey guys please buy Rayman!" Everything else will bomb.

[Father_Brain]

officially announced?  I suppose not, but they're definitely doing a couple of entirely unexciting things.

Huh, wouldn't have expected even that.

As part of our on-going push to ensure Nintendo content is shared across social media channels in an appropriate and safe way, we became a YouTube partner and as such in February 2013 we registered our copyright content in the YouTube database. For most fan videos this will not result in any changes, however, for those videos featuring Nintendo-owned content, such as images or audio of a certain length, adverts will now appear at the beginning, next to or at the end of the clips. We continually want our fans to enjoy sharing Nintendo content on YouTube, and that is why, unlike other entertainment companies, we have chosen not to block people using our intellectual property.

finally played around with one of these at gamestop today

I think the controller is awesome.  a bit cheaper feeling than I thought it would be.  dicked around with mario, which was mario.

I'll probably get this thing when it price drops and sees a new 3d mario.  It'll be my nintendo games console, as per usual.

I swear these nintards are getting too desperate with the blatant knee jerk reactions to the deluge of negative news.

Lets just all calm down and use the report button so that we may continue politely discussing the WiiU.

The only thing right about that picture is that Nintendo have a fat turkey

[Cerveza mas fina]

That picture fails to portray that Sony/MS users where having fine caviar, while nintendo users where playing cheap genetically modified shovelchicken.

[Great Rumbler]

That picture would be more accurate today if all three were starving.

[StealthFan]

Halo 3 and Mass Effect for 360. Plus COD4 for the twins.

That picture would be more accurate today if all three were starving.

PS3 has two big exclusives (one if you hate Quantum Dream) this year. It's the only current gen console that is still worth a shit in regards to the future. Someones gotta eat next gen. It isn't going to be Nintendo though.

Looking back, 2008 must've been painful for Nintendo fans that weren't in denial. The twins were flush with titles (not exclusive) and the Wii's offerings were downright paltry.

[Shaka Khan]

I just completed Super Metroid. My god that ending sequence. What an amazing experience.

I still think the game is slightly rough in a few, but I do agree now that it's the most successful out every game that tried the formula.

[Shaka Khan]

Haha, perfect timing!

[demi]

Ew re-wrapped

[Shaka Khan]

Huh?! How so?

[Shaka Khan]

I had never seen this before...

Super Metroid powered by google maps?

http://gromba.nl/metroid/?map=supermetroid

Looks like it works for all the 2d Metroids.

[Positive Touch]

:krs i still remember every damn room

damn that is some powerful nostalgia. one of my favorite series of all time

[Don Flamenco]

looks like regular DS shrinkwrap to me.   

guess you'll find out when you open it! 

[Shaka Khan]

Everything seems intact, clean and smells brand new.

I love me some Super Metroid, but guttamn if IGAvanias don't control/flow like butter, no to mention sound and looks so...

I feel right at home.

[radioheadrule83]

Miiverse is not just for embarrassing yourself with EA hatred...



 

[ManaByte]

Huh?! How so?

Looks like the guy works at Gamestop and used their shrikwrap machine to reseal it.

[Shaka Khan]

Well, I bought it for $20, everything is intact, looks and smells new. So

[Don Flamenco]

some DS games have that factory Y-fold stuff, others have the cheap shrinkwrap.  I used to get complaints on ebay when I'd sell unopened DS games, but I'd have them check other new copies to see that it's the same. 

I'm guessing new copies of OOE at this point are on their 10th printing and use the cheap stuff. 

[brob]

if you care about the plastic wrapper on your video games you are a lost cause.

i once had a canadian guy buy 3 copies of sealed Metal Gear Solid 2 black labeled for $60 a piece, just in hopes of getting one with a perfectly centered security label on top.   He bought one, asked if I had more and had me comparing my last two.  I said I couldn't quite tell which one was more centered.  so he bought both  

[brob]

you should have put a little dot on the side of the plastic with a magic marker.

[Damian79]

Considering how badly the other 2 went i am feeling really confident of Nintendo doing well in the holidays, Iwatas job is safe imo.

If things stayed as they are, they'd probably still get butt-raped... other consoles have FIFA, GTA etc. - but providing E3 brings good game announcements and the price is sensible by Christmas, they MAY have a chance. I am as bewildered by Microsoft's launch conduct so far as I have been by Nintendo's. The TV shit is gonna be great to use, but I never expected such a huge emphasis on it at Xbox One's first reveal.

I'm not their biggest fan, so I hate to say this - but provided Sony don't bend over and shove a studded dildo covered in razor wire up their arse, and avoid a $599 situation -- their hype machine could see them do best easily this holiday.

i was a little worried he'd return them based on some dust getting under the cellophane.  nope, totally happy.

Nah. All fresh games are Y-Folded for virginity.

That looks like a re-seal in Shaka's pic.

[Don Flamenco]

That link is dead and I've gotten pre-ordered new release DS games from gamestop with that crap shrink wrap.   I'm pretty sure a Dawn of Sorrow print run even has it. 

this thread confirms it varies:

oh well, he's happy and there weren't pubes in his box.   also, people fake Y-fold these days anyway, which sucks.

Not FIFA, and not Madden... maybe more Need for Speed? Star Wars?

[treythemovie]

Sims 4 console port? Sounds like the type of game I'd port to Nintendo if I was forced to.

[radioheadrule83]

Are these more acceptable than my EA doodles, bore?



Please keep in mind I do not have a backlog and am too skint to buy anything else atm... this is all I haves  :'(

I don't think Sony is in the clear yet. Actually they're nowhere close. Remember, they're the same company who trickled a series of good news and showings for the Vita until we were hit by the memory cards' shocker, lack of major titles/support from pubs (in the vein of the PSP/3DS), and loss of MH's exclusivity less than 6 weeks before launch back in 2011. In this scenario, the price, used games policy, propriety accessories/add-ons, and premium online service (that could include MP) are all possible pitfalls to fuckery!

[Steve Contra]

The thinking that because one console is failing another one has o succeed is amazing.  We're probably looking at a situation where none of them succeed.  It's going to be glorious.

[Shaka Khan]

Exactly. Everyone is still under the impression the market will be having the same cap, with shares up for grabs. Everything is up in the air, really.

[Don Flamenco]

typical gaf/internet bullshit where one suddenly becomes totally awesome because the other one totally sucks

this is why critical thinking skills are more important to teach from a young age than STEM-related things

[Steve Contra]

Yes, we need less STEM in schools so people can more successfully argue consoles on the internet.
