[Megathread] Nintendo Wii U

I see articles about co-development, but nothing referencing anything about who was responsible for more/less/whatever.

Not that I think it really matters all that much, either way.

Nintendo who?

You have no idea what you're talking about and can't even name the nintendo developer behind it. Was it EAD? EAD2? Monolith? Retro? IS? NDC? HAL? Like you understand "Nintendo" is not a dev studio right?

Nah, it wasn't any of them. It was platinum. The only Nintendo influence is Miyamoto and other Nintendo higher ups over seeing the development of it.

Then again you probably think Smash 4 was developed by Nintendo when it was developed by Bandai Namco... lulz.

you can think that if you want but when the game comes out and its shit and has none of platinums charm it wont matter what you thought

You're the one trying to tell me "nintendo" did the majority of the development work but can't even tell me the Nintendo studio responsible for it. Platinum is developing the game with help and input from select Nintendo people, and hell from the videos it has plenty of platinum charm. Have you even watched the boss fight teasers? Shit is platinum style 100%.

You mean MK8 and MP10? And what hint? That they're different games with different demands and priced differently? >.>

ahhh i read that wrong I thought it was Mario party 8

well MP8 is still freaken expensive.

And MP10 is still garbage. It's like purchasing the ability to spend more money. Oh, you don't have 20 more controllers and 5 different varieties of controller? Well you can play this game by yourself as Bowser or just...idk, throw your Wiiu in the garbage.

It used to be so simple when you just needed the amount of controllers for people you wanted to play.

doesnt mario part 10 just use wiimotes and the gamepad?

[zito]

I accidentally traded in my copy of MP8 instead of 9 but it's ok.....

Yea and wii motes are cheap as hell.

The only real problem with MP9 and 10 is the car taking away the distinct feeling of MP games. If they didn't go with the car route again MP10 would have been pretty damn good IMO. As it is I still think it was an okay entry, and the son and wife definitely like it. I'm sure I would like it more to if it was my first MP game as well.

Another flaw is the amiibo board having you to tap your amiibo

every

single

turn

like who at nintendo thought that was a good idea to let it pass?

Island tour would of been better if there was online play and just replace someone with a CPU if they left

Could care less if the amiibo mode was removed from the game or never existed tbh. It was just an excuse to add amiibo functionality and make another set of Mario amiibos as if the Smash ones weren't enough.

Traded in my wii u and already kind of regret it, think I'll look for an MK8 bundle again sometime next month. Hopefully they reduce the price of the wii u soon...consideringthe XB1 is $300 and the PS4 is $350 they should reduce the price to 200-250 imo.

They are $200 refurbished from Nintendo which is basically brand new and comes with the same warranty.

Emily Rogers, the person who leaked Paper Mario: Color Splash, has heard rumors that there will be big Zelda U news soon.

Another rumor saying one of the big news is a female Link.

I would totally play as Linkle in the new game. Even better if her moves are slightly different. Even even better if the story changes some. That would make for more variety in repeat play.
