Wonderful 101 is out in Europe tonight (midnight on eShop) -- gonna pick it up along with Splinter Cell Blacklist

Why on earth is the US release three weeks after? Does the US get something in its place?

Nintendo thought competing with GTA 5 would be the best shot for one of there games to do well

cool breeze · « **Reply #9188 on:** August 22, 2013, 10:35:39 AM »

some might spin it as acute counterprogramming..

It's bad, yeah. If Wonderful 101 came out this week, I'd buy it no question. As it is, either GTAV PC is announce for this year, or I'll probably cave and pick that up instead.

the interesting part is that there won't be a price drop, if the rumor is to be believed

Does anyone at Nintendo know how to cut a damn trailer anymore?

Even still I was really surprised by how the graphics looked in it. Haven't been paying attention much to the game since the bloom city initial shots.

Eel O'Brian · « **Reply #9203 on:** August 23, 2013, 08:09:14 PM »

I like how they repeat everything

"Select Hero Mode from the main screen!"

- shows Hero Mode being selected from the main screen

"In Hero Mode, you take double damage and hearts aren't replenished!"

- shows screen explaining that you take double damage and hearts aren't replenished

They showed two screens of taking double damage, as if we thought they were bullshitting us the first time.

nudemacusers · « **Reply #9206 on:** August 23, 2013, 08:24:57 PM »

I'm really glad they showed an enemy taking one heart vs half a heart of health. I really did not understand what 'enemies do double damage' meant until they showed a side by side comparison.

I actually quite liked Wind Waker in spite of its flaws. If I had more free time, I'd probably be completely on board for playing the HD remake. That said, I'm completely baffled by anyone that thinks this is a significant release. It's a game that didn't set the charts on fire over ten years ago. Granted, I think time has been kind to it, but I don't think it's been that kind.

Assuming it didn't cost that much to remake, I think it's a smart play on their part. But I really hope that a Wind Waker bundle isn't the best value proposition they have lined up for the fall.

mjemirzian · « **Reply #9209 on:** August 23, 2013, 10:44:11 PM »

My takeaway on this remake is Nintendo cutting their teeth on HD development. HD ports are usually a safe bet for that kind of work.

Will prob. sell ok as well.

Probably couldn't drop it below the price of the deluxe, so they just axed it.

The Wind Waker bundle will debut at the same price as the basic Wii U set, despite the fact that it contains 32GB of internal memory and digital versions of both Wind Waker and Hyrule Historia.

Also, I am SO SO DISAPPOINTED that this game won't have a re-orchestrated soundtrack. The fact they're doing a special Symphony of the Goddesses thing in Seattle for this game just rubs salt in the wounds.

Ewwwwwwwwwwwwwwwww its a digital download. NO THANKS

TakingBackSunday · « **Reply #9224 on:** August 28, 2013, 12:15:47 PM »

so what is the difference between the wind waker pack and the Wii U delux? HDD size and thats it?

radioheadrule83 · « **Reply #9225 on:** August 28, 2013, 12:17:48 PM »

Didn't clock the price differences of the HW bundles...

Comes with a game (and awesome Hyrule Historia in the US) for £100 less than a PS4 with no games, ~£140 less than a PS4 with one game and ~£200 less than some bundles I'm seeing with extra controllers etc.

It'll be between £50-100 more expensive than the PS360 high end models (500gb) etc, but probably about on par with bundling we'll see with GTA V etc.

Its still gonna get assfucked to kingdom-come in the US and the UK, but the price change is a move in the right direction. It'd be nice to announce things that evoke a proper future for the console (2014/15 games) and maybe market it properly.

demi · « **Reply #9226 on:** August 28, 2013, 12:18:26 PM »

Nothing is different. It just comes with a digital download for Wind Waker, frilly gamepad design, and a digital download for Hyrule Hystoria

davepoobond · « **Reply #9227 on:** August 28, 2013, 12:21:09 PM »

lol that gamepad looks atrocious.

also, i feel like its weird that they're making a console pack-in box for an HD remaster. they didn't have a "new game" that was better to put in or something.

hm, might as well just get the WW bundle then. I don't care if I have the gay little triforce frills on the controller, I'm already embarrassing myself by buying a Wii U to begin with, why not a little extra feggitry. won't hurt.

Pisses me off -- not bothering with orchestration -- recording a game in Eastern Europe with an orchestra is incredibly cheap and the results are fantastic. Dragon Quest 8 did such a fucking amazing job at it too
