>>320237824
Now THIS is a blunder of the century
>Gamestop in America supposedly only recieved a little over 400 copies for the entire country
>that feel when you kind of want to buy it as an inevitable collector's item
I'm so conflicted right now. I was actually planning on getting it eventually, I figured it would drop in price really quickly. But now I bet it will stay above MSRP forever.
>>320237824
read this yesterday, pretty hilarious
and it's not even that bad; i've been watching the 2bf playthrough and it seems like a perfectly reasonable 6
>>320239967
Nintendrones, never again
>>320237824
I dont get it, seems just as bad as every other game you retards circle jerk about all day
>>320240110
Twat! If I had waited 4 days I could have saved myself 4 quid.
>>320237824
Oatmeal got fucked.
>giving shill op clicks
https://archive.is/5VvOL
Isn't this coming to PC too?
>>320240004
I have it, it really isnt.
>>320237824
all those "bad" things happen in MGS and it gets a free pass. I don't get why people just let it go when it's from a big company0
>>320243879
You mean it's not all that bad or it's not even a 6/10?
>>320237824
That's what Moonface gets for trying to do business with Nintendo.
>>320243813
Just MP supposedly.
>>320244009
It's honestly the worst game I've played this year. It's uninspired, looks like shit and the multiplayer is pretty boring too, sadly.
I had low expectations and it still managed to disappoint.
Wasted money/10
>>320241573
Did Oatmeal somehow piss off Nintendo's top honchos?
>>320244216
No he's just incompetent on his own.
>>320244130
I said the same things about splatoon and overwatch this year
>>320244423
>splatoon
>uninspired
It is still the most detailed Wii U game in terms of texture quality.
Is that as shadow man remake?
>>320243813
Multiplayer.
The open beta has begun in ... Thailand.
http://legendsworld.net/shooter/game/13852
>>320237824
More like Devil's Turd
>>320237824
Did they at least bundle the first and second game with this like they did with Bayonetta? I don't wanna just jump in without knowing the previous stories.
>>320244982
what first and second game you retard
>>320244982
Anon "Third" isn't referring to a sequel...
And then there are people who wonder why no one wants to work with Nintendo.
>>320244216
Yeah, he delivered a shitty game.
>>320245969
To be fair, if you were Nintendo and saw the Europe reviews basically calling this game shit and having the game itself bomb there while still having an obligation to release it in the states, would you really go out of your way to release more than the minimal amount of copies?
It was business sense, note the lack of any huge promotion either now that people know it's garbage.
>>320237824
Is /v/ done defending this game now? It looks like fucking shit.
>>320246772
I love that /v/ defends IGN now.
>>320244423
If you had any expectations left after watching footage of these two, I don't know what to tell you.
>>320246867
To be fair over the last two or so years IGN actually became the best vidya "journalism" site around. Not because it got better but because everything else got worse.
>>320246347
They literally did nothing to promote the game. Even before all the reviews. If they didn't like how it looked or whatever they could've offered to help with the development. Do fucking something...
I doubt that the people at Sony thought The Order would be a hit, but they still pushed that turd and helped RAD with development.
>>320247008
Sony was probably in denial. They expected people to eat up the "Cinematic" game
>>320246867
/v/ current back up every Kotaku article these days since they defend they fallout4 "true goty". That's just how bad the place became over a single year.
WHY DIDNT I PREORDER
REEEE
DoAX3 will sell more fucking copies in the west.
Christ.
What the fuck happened to Itagaki.
What a fraud.
>>320246867
I'm not seeing what that has to do with my post at all. Also I haven't noticed in the least.
>>320247141
I like how Fallout shares just about every flaw Devil's Third has. Oh, DT doesn't have any gamebreaking bufs though.
>>320237824
>there're idiots on /v/ that claim this game is good
>these idiots actually paid for this game
>>320243019
arstechnica is a good site, though.
>>320240004
>and it's not even that bad; i've been watching the 2bf playthrough and it seems like a perfectly reasonable 6
The TBFP playthrough has been a fun watch but the game looks awful.
I might play it sometime down the line as a fan of shooters, melee combat intertwined with shooting, and Itagaki-san, but it just looks like fucking shit.
Shame too, it's not even really Itagaki or Valhalla's fault either.
>>320240004
>Not even that bad
>one of the worst reviewed games of 2015
Sure thing buddy.
>>320245969
Not their fault Oatmeal Cookie can't make a decent game.
>>320247354
It got a worse review at IGN than Sonic Boom did. Reviews do not mean shit.
>>320244854
No.
The protagonist is a Russian Vin Diesel knock-off whose role lies somewhere between Solid Snake and Travis Touchdown and fails at being respective of both of them.
>>320247414
They're both shit games reviewed by different people and the difference is less than 1 point.
>>320247545
>The protagonist is a Russian Vin Diesel knock-off whose role lies somewhere between Solid Snake and Travis Touchdown
Ivan is kinda like Travis Touchdown?
Details?
SUPER HOTT SUCC OF DIK
>>320247616
Yes, but there's an issue when they can't be consistent.
>>320247312
Just play Transformers: Devastation instead
>>320245969
>deliver shit
>expect AAA tier marketing and exposure
Yeah I wonder.
>>320247710
Both grades are bad and they're both bad games. Seems consistent to me.
No website will give you 100% consistency with your opinions, unless you make a review website yourself.
>>320247771
I really should, I'm a massive Platinumfag too.
>>320237824
>you may have seen the marketing blitzes for titles like Super Mario Maker or Xenoblade Chronicles X this holiday season.
What? There's was no promotion for Xenoblade at all. It was the console's biggest holiday exclusive and they didn't even offer a bundle for it.
NoA just hates video games, that's all.
>>320245969
Yeah! Why can't Nintendo waste their time, money, reputation on shitty shovelware!
Fucking Nintendo!
>>320247008
>I doubt that the people at Sony thought The Order would be a hit,
How wrong can a person be?
Sony has been pushing cinematic shitgames for over a decade now and many of them were a proper success. The Order was an attempt at going 90% movie but it backfired.
>>320239776
Nintendo in general is the blunder of the century.
Even the most loyal Nintendo fans are starting to get tired of their shit.
>>320247887
>one game is a beyond broken mess
>the other is just mediocre
>the mediocre one has the lower score
>>320247971
They do that all the time though.
>>320247991
His point was there was literally no adverts on TV or stores or anything, at least where I live. Normally Sony attempts to sell their stuff outside of presentations at E3.
>>320248086
What, Devil's Third is buggy as well?
What happened to Oatmeal Cookie?
>>320247308
>ArsTechnica is a good site
Kyle Orland is a cancer journalist who is the very founder of the collaboration between publications to shame gamers. Casey Johnson who was a journalist there before is a SJW who hates gamers.
It's as bad as Polygon and Kotaku. Especially when the motherload piece of shit himself writes for it.
>>320247991
>>320247008
Sony's plan is "fund 10 games, hope 1 is a hit."
So they end up with 90% misses, but then get Bloodborne. And for some very small number of people, Order was a game that appealed directly to them, without pandering to a mass market that (as sales demonstrate) wasn't interested.
>>320248164
He didn't have talented people to hide behind this time.
>>320247619
i want this
Blame nintendo and their shitty hardware
They had to switch whole engines after they got bought out
>>320248127
Yeah, Sony fully expected the Order to be a smash hit. They thought people would love a game like that after The Last of Us, Uncharted and Heavy Rain.
Of course they advertised it.
>>320248164
He's a fraud. This game proves it.
>>320248067
The funny thing is, their games were always terribad.
>>320248141
Not that fucking buggy. It's a low budget buggy, not a Bethesda "we didn't do QA" buggy
>>320248164
You didn't think Ninja Gaiden was good because him alone, right?
>>320248067
they're making another of those shit olympics ones? Who wanted that?
>>320248252
Whatever you say man, I literally saw nothing about it. I've seen ads for Bloodborne and Infamous Second Son (non movie games) and even the Uncharted Collection but nothing about the Order.
>>320248298
But Sonic Boom isn't Bethesda tier either, it's just a bad game with a few bugs on the side.
>>320248443
Dont you remember all these articles about the developers bragging about hitting that cinematic 30fps and how thats better for the game?
Thats all marketing.
>>320243984
Do you live under a rock? Konami didn't get a pass. They got booed at the VGAs. Everybody hates their ass.
>>320248067
>That picture
Jesus, seeing Nintendo trying to modernize itself is fucking painful.
Stick to what you do best Nintendo instead of playing this retarded catch up game.
Why do i sort of want this game
???
>third person shooter
>but goes into a psudeo-NG mode with melee combat
>but if you aim, it uses first person ADS
Itagaki is a fucking hack. There are reasons why some publishers don't publish games by certain devs.Platinum for example.
>>320248548
There were interviews with Oatmeal for this game too, I'm talking about ads on TV, stores and before youtube videos when you're forced to watch them on something without adblock.
>tfw I quite like Devil's Third
It's like an 80's action movie, complete with cheese and ham.
>>320247954
Because Xenoblade won't sell. It's a niche title.
Probably only got localized because they have absolutely nothing else.
>>320248667
What systems do you have?
>>320248616
The idea is not bad though, the execution is just terrible.
>>320248734
Dreamcast, PS3, PS4, WiiU, 3DS, Vita and an aging gaymen PC.
>>320248240
>its the hardwares fault the gameplay sucks
Uhm no you are retarded
And they didnt switch engines because of hardware but because the publishers shafted their projects.
>>320248758
If he just fucking got rid of the momentum-ruining ADS, it would've been somewhat better.
Why are you guys defending this game?
I don't understand
Nintendo censored this game by not advertising its existence
>>320248240
This game were suppose to be developed for PS3/360 and published by Activision.
This game is essentially a port, not fully developed from scratch.
>>320248616
>>but if you aim, it uses first person ADS
Yeah I don't see why some people are defending this.
We've literally had third-person, OTS aiming for a while now, people. What is so hard to understand about this?
>>320248616
>There are reasons why some publishers don't publish games by certain devs. Platinum for example.
Literally everybody wants to work with Platinum though.
>>320237824
Wii U is going out in a blaze of fecal glory.
>>320247619
>NoA can't censor this
>muh family value
>welp, lets pretend this game never exist
Fucking NoA.
>>320244216
He's incompetent. Nothing more needs to be said.
>>320249003
Yeah, its a shitty game.
But it doesn't deserve such treament.
NoA could at least feature it in E3 or something, but it got completely shafted because NoJ isn't around.
>>320249003
Every console has its drone
Just like every night your mom gets boned
Just like every hippie likes to get real stoned
Every console has its drone
>>320249010
i think its a strategy.
They are using the old amiibo strategy, scarcity.
I wanted this game but didnt give a shit about preordering because my plan was to buy when the price was lower. I go to le reddit flipping only to see everyone is buying to resell because there are only 420 of them.
What the fucking fuck.
Now im mad at nintendo because i want the game now, when i was planning to get it next year.
>>320249029
THQ, not Activision
>>320249075
>Literally everybody wants to work with Platinum though.
And then the game sells like shit and they throw them under the bus.
W101 and Bayo 2 flopped and now Nintendo wants nothing to do with them anymore.
>>320249003
/v/ love being a contrarian
>>320249229
Not sure why you'd think that shitty games deserve good treatment
It's pretty much over for Nintendo in the home console space.
>>320249229
>But it doesn't deserve such treatment.
Why not?
You've seen the game, right?
>>320249291
>Nintendo wants nothing to do with them anymore.
>source:my ass
>>320249291
Star Fox Zero is literally being programmed by Platinum and both Ninty and Platinum have said they would like to work more with one another in the future.
>>320249241
>>320249291
>people this retarded post here
>>320249303
Yup, there is 0 reason to be optimistic. Especially after how Nintendo just threw their arms up and said fuck it this year.
>>320249003
/v/ loves to shit on nintendo.
I still remember when every shat on nintendo because there were rumors of it not coming to NA and when it came they shit on nintendo for bringing in to NA.
>>320244216
THQ biting the dust leading to both an engine and platform change probably did quite a number to the game
>>320249297
>>320249309
Yeah, ITS SHIT, but even the shittiest shit deserve a fighting chance.
Outright denying its existence is just way too much.
>>320247619
Is he eating her out or doing a powerbomb?
>>320249612
Why? It will only make people upset for paying for a blunder like that and then you get shitty threads on /v/ with people shouting Neo Nintendo because somehow its their fault that the game is shit.
>what will my mom think if she know my company is selling this kind of game
>welp, better pretend it doesn't exist.
NoA, the only publisher who is actively try not to sell a game.
>>320249602
None of the problems except maybe the horrible perfmance which is the games last problem the gsme has comes from the engine.
When a korean f2p publisher cancels you project you know there is something deeply wrong with your game.
>>320249538
Yeah, /v/ sure loves shitting on Nintendo by defending their shitty games
>>320247619
I am legitimately attracted to that character.
>>320244597
Well yeah, it got really, really inspired by color wars, so you're right.
>>320249856
The ones defending the game are shitting on nintendo for not supporting it.
See >>320245969
>>320249747
You would be one fucking idiot if you buy the game without having a slightest info about it.
Even a simple gameplay vid is enough to show how shitty it is.
But every single game deserve a fighting chance, and even the shittiest game have some aspect that would make people appreciate it.
By the look of it NoA completely pretend this game doesn't exist, which is unheard of.
Even SEGA does a lot more shit for BOOM, a game they shat out just to complete their side of the deal with Nintendo.
>>320249208
Incompetent and gave zero fuck
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kXHcqxgHiGw
>>320249767
How dare they not trying to sell a horrible product to clueless customers. Truly the worst company in history.
>>320247008
Except Sony thought the order would be a hit. It fits in perfectly well with their movie game lineup.
>>320249812
>Have to switch engine because the company that support the engine closed down
>THQ bankruptcy
>have all the rights, but no publisher
>Nintendo offer to publish the game
>platform and yet another engine change
When does the korean publisher comes in again?
>>320250103
>tfw Oatmeal-San will never invite you to his game development orgies.
soo why did they refuse to release a proper fatal frame pysical disc in the us but this instead?
>>320250224
After the bancruptcy of THQ a korean publisher picked it up, which was when the engine was switched the first time, but dropped it later on.
>>320250182
>How dare they not trying to sell a horrible product to clueless customers. Truly the worst company in history.
False advertising is one thing, pretending it doesn't exist is another.
A publisher pretending the game that they publish doesn't exist is...unheard of...
>>320250043
You would be one fucking idiot if you needed marketing to know what kind of games are coming out.
And I completely disagree. Shitty games dont deserve good treatment.
You just say they should get it because.
Its not unheard of either, plenty of games get zero exposure.
Nintendo realized that they bought a dud and now they try to not lose even more money on it.
Boom is also a shitty example. It exists to promote their shit cartoon series and Sega are really not known for making smart decisions in general.
Nintendo wants to forget about this.
>>320250435
Looks like they signed a contract for that with the Cookie.
Sooo
what's next for Oatmeal Cookie-kun?Honestly, I wanna see him crawling back to Tecmo, begging for their forgiveness. Literally Japanese Romero
>>320250650
probably another sexual harassment lawsuit
>>320250547
Shitty games don't deserve a good treatmen, but they still deserve a fair one.
Games like Demon's Souls wouldn't exist otherwise.
>>320250650

Nice car.
>>320250746
>but they still deserve a fair one.
Why?
Are you comparing Demons Souls to Devils Third right now?
>>320250547
This isn't the first shitty game Nintendo ever publish anon.
Yeah, shitty games doesn't deserve a good treatment, but this is far from a good treatment.
>Its not unheard of either, plenty of games get zero exposure.
Gonna need an example for that.
>Nintendo realized that they bought a dud and now they try to not lose even more money on it.
Pretty sure NoJ have a good advertising for it including the latest direct and announcement in their site.
NoA on the other hand completely shafted this game from any feature whatsoever.
>>320250516
No not really. Happens all the time in every industry on every market when the product is so horribly bad that it would destroy the public image or certain circumstances lead to public backslash.
Most recent examples every japanese game that is not coming to the west due to "wrong" portrayal of woman.
>>320250843
>Are you comparing Demons Souls to Devils Third right now?
No he's not.
You have one heck of a reading comprehension issue anon.
>
>>320250918
What a lie. As a long time Nintendo fan, all of Nintendo's games have gotten high scores from reviewers.
This is the first game that has scored low. Nintendo has lost it's touch with games and should sell themselves immediately.
>>320250843
Demon's Souls received the same treatment as Devil's Third.
It was immediately labelled as a shit game, that's why they rushed its development and made it a JP exclusive until fans forced Sony to release it in EU and NA.
>>320240110
The Fug
Didn't it just come out?
>>320251001
>Shitty games don't deserve a good treatmen, but they still deserve a fair one.
>Games like Demon's Souls wouldn't exist otherwise.
Sounds like he's saying that Demons Souls is as bad as Devils Third.
>>320251019
And it still managed to become a cult hit that spawned a successful franchise so I dont see the issue.
>>320250963
>Most recent examples every japanese game that is not coming to the west due to "wrong" portrayal of woman.
Those game doesn't get published in the first place.
Were talking about a completely different situation here anon, where a publisher trying its hardest to not sell the game they published.
>Happens all the time in every industry on every market when the product is so horribly bad that it would destroy the public image or certain circumstances lead to public backslash.
Still gonna need an example for that.
>>320250767
>>320250835
>Mobile
Sooo
is that good or bad?
I know nothing about mobile gaming
>>320250918
>Yeah, shitty games doesn't deserve a good treatment, but this is far from a good treatment.
Exactly. Because it doesnt deserve it.
>>320251123
The issue is that if they don't give a fair chance to every game (shitty ones included) surprise hits like Demon's Souls would not exist.
Also if Demon's Souls received a fair treatment the game would be way better now, the reason why there's so much cut content is that they cut the budget and squeezed it out prematurely, because it was one of those "shitty games".
>>320251123
>Sounds like he's saying that Demons Souls is as bad as Devils Third.
That guy is referring to the publishing issue DeS have where SONY refuse to publish it due to how 'bad' it is.
Atlus give it a chance, and look where it ended up being.
>>320237824
probably because action shooter games goes against the kind of stuff nintendo usually have
>>320251294
You expect publishers to waste money on all shit games just because there's a chance that a sleeper hit could come out maybe, which is kinda like banking on the publisher being wrong.
Thats fucking stupid.
If you think that your game is that amazing and your genius is misunderstood then you should consider looking for another publisher. Thats what the Demons Souls people did.
>>320251190
What do you think? It's bad for us
>>320247954
I saw a commercial for Xenoblade X on Adult Swim the other day, but who the fuck has cable these days?
>>320251509
nintendo really needs to break out of their shitty mario comfort zone
the snes era was shitting out game after game and now they are too scared to release stuff like fatal frame cuz they think it wont sell as well as a mario title?
is this shit all reggies doing?
>>320251551
>Thats what the Demons Souls people did.
Actually, the game is close to be completely shafted.
Atlus are the one who extend the hand to publish it.
FYI DeS is co-developed with Sony Studio and when its done they think its shit and refuse to publish it.
>You expect publishers to waste money on all shit games just because there's a chance that a sleeper hit could come out maybe, which is kinda like banking on the publisher being wrong.
How much does a 1/2 hour feature in treehouse cost?
How much does it cost to announce it on tweeter?
How much does it cost to put up a youtube video?
Also, Devils Third is in a completely different situation.
They ALREADY HAVE A PUBLISHER, but this particular publisher refuse to sell this game even though they publish it.
Its not the same as a game that didn't have any publisher.
>>320251509
NoJ is fine featuring this game in Japan.
They are fine with a lot more risque shit.
The one that is need to change is NoA.
>>320251783
Most snes games were censored except ironically ff6 but then the gba did that
So who's at fault here?
Is it Reggie?
we'll see who's laughing when he's confirmed for Smash.
Why did Ninty save this garbage instead of Nioh?
Really looking forward to Nioh next year on my PS4 but you couldn't pay me to take this garbage. You'd think with 10 years dev time it would be worth a once over but no.
>>320252081
It's a youkai's obviously
>>320252202
Ten years of development is always a bad sign, never a good one.
If they take so long, it's always because some bad shit happened.
>>320250650
I think he said he was gonna work on mobile games in China.
>>320251915
>NoA needs to change because they decide to not push a shit game
I hate NoA like the guy next, but not pushing this shit is porbably the only thing they did right this year.
>>320249962
>Inspired by a game thats literally unheard of to the masses
I'm sure they stole all the fame and money from them.
>Sorry we had to delay Star Fox but at least you can play...Devil's Third...exclusively..on..Wii U..
Not even Reggie can spin that PR into a good thing.
>tfw bought a copy just to re sell at $40 profit
>>320252583
I'm not just talking about Devils Turd anon.
NoA treated Xenoblade like shit, they treated most third party title that isn't Pokemon or Mario like shit.
>>320248067
>>320248287
You're both pretty fucking stupid to be honest.
>>320237824
Was anyone ever hyped for this piece of trash?
>tfw bought a copy after reading about the monumentally low shipping numbers and outrageous eBay prices
Considering the odds that this thing will never get a reprint since Nintendo sent it out to die, will it be worth even more down the line?
>>320250516
Oh really? So Activision is unheard of?
Try literally everyone who ever released a game that blundered in reviews and sells both.
>>320253449
Still need those example anon.
>>320250516
What is haze.
>>320251016
>Wii Music had high review scores.
>Pokemon Dash had high review scores
>Amiibo Festival has high review scores.
At least you aren't delusional.
>>320251072
Apparently they only shipped something like 5,000 copies, and that's being generous.
>>320253434
If more copies aren't announced then I'd guess $200-ish until the game isn't digitally available.
>>320253434
most likely
>>320253554
>Korn wrote a song based on that game
Really anon? How is it the same as 'completely ignore its existence' tier of treatment?
>>320252635
Popularity has nothing to do with it.
>>320250583
hahahahhaha omg that car tho
>>320253640
How do you ship only 5,000 copies of a game?
Do companies not make at least several ten-thousand copes during normal runs? Are they holding all other copes in a warehouse somewhere?
Seriously I'm fucking sick at Nintendo pulling this low-print shit with their games. But its always ok when fucking Nintendo does it.
>>320253838
They pretended it didn't exist before it even released because of the shitty reviews, are you high? The only thing the game is known for now is killing free radical.
>>320252635
Literally no one heard of the spaz who originated the MGS melody either but that doesn't make plagiarism okay.
>>320249956

At least try anon.
If you said Paintball someone would have taken the bait.

2009 Wolfenstein. After the game didnt meet their expectations they sold the franchise, unemployed Raven, removed the game from Steam and any trace about it from their site.
>>320253993
>They pretended it didn't exist before it even released because of the shitty reviews, are you high?
And NoA pretend it doesn't exist ever since they show it off last year.
And Ubisoft promote the game adequately before the review come off and I'm pretty sure most of the review embargo is a mere couple of days before the actual release date.
>>320253959
According to rumors, they shipped 'just enough' to fill pre-orders and have a few copies on the side. It's been going around that Gamestop all across America got a grand total of 420DUDEcopies.
>tfw Best Buy doesn't have any copies in store and only has it online
>tfwyou bought the only copy they had for sale online
>ship low
>sell through
WE DID IT
GREAT SUCCESS HIGH FIVE
>>320254370
But the publisher did their job promoting the game.
How is it the same as a publisher that outright pretending the game doesn't exist long before the release date?
>>320250516
Afro Samurai 2
>>320237824
The game is horribly mediocre. It's a really bad late PS2 Early PS3/360 game. If I were Nintendo I wouldn't want anyone to see it either.
>>320254386
Doesn't stop it from being greedy shit though.
I'm actually tempted to buy Xenoblade Chronicles X now after what happened with the first one due to this low shipment bullshit. Ton's of other Wii U games are still at $50+ even years after release, like Lego City.
i want this game...but its impossible to find its going for 200 bucks on ebay
>>320254623
>i want this game
That's a claim no one would self apply where I come from.
>>320254597
What? Bandai did a moderate shit for it, but its far far better than the treatment this game is getting.
Are you sure you understand the situation here?
>>320254370
Bethesda wants everyone to forget about Wolfenstein 2009, not Activision. Although why I have no idea;that game was pretty good
As for Raven, both Wolf 09 and Singularity sold like shit since Activision did a piss poor job of advertising either of them, so they're stuck working on COD until they die.
>>320253959
Just download it over the shop if you really want to play a shitty/mediorce gamejust wait for the PC version.
>>320254580
Both publishers see the games as a possible staain on their reputation, one of them came to this conclusion after release, and another did before, but choose to release it anyway to get at least some money back. It is the same approach which differs when the situation differs.
>>320254863
>Afro samurai 2
>Bamco
Are you legit retarded?
Anyways you are just shitposting anyways saying every legit example isnt valid because of abitrary rules set up now saying that it has to have exactly 100% the same marketing.
>>320254620
First party Nintendo games rarely if ever go down in price.
The only two WiiU first party titles I've seen for cheap were Nintendoland, which was a pack-in, and Ninja Gaiden 3, which went multiplat afterwards.
>>320237824
>>320254989
The "open world" hub really harmed Wolf2009. The SIИGULAЯITУ featured the same mechanics but was linear otherwise, and it played much better. Also, minigun in that game is fucking cool.
>>320255079
No its not.
NoA have been trying to avoid even mentioning this game even since they show it off last year.
Both publisher did adequate enough to promote the game approaching its release date.
>>320255114
Afro Samurai is published by Bamco.
Afro Samurai 2 is pulled because people hated it, prior to that the small publisher did it best to promote the game.
Most of the game cited have publisher abandoning it AFTER the review went out or if the game have shitty sales.
But non so far have the same treatment as Devil Third where the publisher try it dammest not to mention it ever since it was previewed over a fucking year ago till its release.
>>320249003
Because Japan made it, and it's okay when Japan makes shitty games.
If this was a game made by Bioware, /v/ would be shitting 24/7 on it.
>>320255363
I feel like this tactic is killing Nintendo to some extent.
It makes their consoles less accessible when all of the games are still expensive as shit compared to the competition.
>>320255625
>NoA have been trying to avoid even mentioning this game even since they show it off last year.
Why did they fucking bother picking it up from THQ's corpse then?
>>320256005
They didnt think it would be this bad.
Mightve been really cheap too.
>>320247619
That is the only interesting part of the whole gameIn my opinion
>>320256005
Did you know that before reviews dropped there were people defending the Master of Ninja Gaiden Itagaki saying he will show everyone who's boss when the game comes out?
Nintendolts probably believed in the hype and then realized they made a huge mistake when they saw >>320250583
>>320256005
Because they are basically forced to publish this game, most likely by NoJ.
During the Wii era people have to BEG to get a couple of game, and even then most of the work were done by NoE while NoA keep going back and forth on whether to publish it.
>>320256231
Believe it or not Devil Third got a decent reception in Japan because of itfunmultiplayer and some decent review.
The quality of the game have nothing to do with this, its just NoA being NoA.
They've published a lot of turd back then.
Does the game support gyro aiming?
>>320245281
>falling for a joke
Wew lad
>>320256521
As long as you aim for the trashcan
>>320256486
>no way to shill amiibos with Devil's Third
>better act like it doesn't exist
>>320244216
No, he just became too full of himself and dun goofed.
>>320256765
...it have nothing to do with Amiibo too anon.
Xenoblade X doesn't have an Amiibo, but they did well promoting that game.
>>320248298
>B-But its not th-THAT b-b-buggy
Jesus christ dude
>>320240004
>>320237824
It looks like a really bad attempt to copy Vanquish.
>>320237824
>There was people on /v/ who actually thought this game would be good
uhhh???
>>320256827
NoJ treated this game well in Japan.
Review and user review have been rather positive over there.
Talking about review, most of the positive comment stern from the multiplayer aspect of the game in Japan whereas in western the multiplayer aspect only get a glance at most.
>>320257159
Its God Hand 2.0
>>320244216
he used unreal 3 as his engine and nintendo didn't bother fully supporting the engine so there's a lot of problems. look at other unreal 3 games on the wii u too.
Wii U is such a powerhouse of a console that it can't even handle last generations iteration of the Unreal engine.
literally less powerful than a ps3/xbox360
>>320255625
they mentioned it in the last Direct like 4 weeks ago
>>320258831
stop shitposting
>>320257435
except it's shit
>>320257435
Except God Hand had good gameplay
>>320259536
truthposting bruh. Unreal 3 can't be optimized for Wii U, which is why it never has been.
Every "good looking" Wii U game is technically about as advanced as a gamecube game in terms of the scripts and coding controlling asset loading, physics, particles, and so on - which is why every "good looking" Wii U game is otherwise barren of these common staples in modern game design.
Just yet another cheap japanese knockoff console from Satoru Iwata, may he not rest in peace until Nintendo actually becomes worthwhile in his wake.
>>320239967
Damn. This is destined to become a game that sells for $500 online in a year.
>>320239967
Good luck, some copies are already selling on Amazon for $500.
>>320257180
All the early european reviews didn't have access to multiplayer when they got their review copies. They overtly acted like the option wasn't even there. And because /v/ is a bunch of cucks who listen to hipster britfags with whiny self-important voices, they took the european word as law despite the glaring fact that every european preview didn't have access to more than half the game.
>>320250583
>implying every game doesnt have texture pop in
>>320247619
>nintendo fans are this easily pleased
>>320249686
that's her insta-kill move.
Why are people on this board so forgiving when it comes to nintendo? If it hadn't been a Wii u exclusive, no one would be defending it.
>>320263924
Why are retards like you too stupid to see that OP is nothing but a contrarian faggot, the type you see on 4chan all the time?
The game is available digitally. Don't be fucking idiots and give money to scalpers for a horribly mediocre game.
>>320262316
every game done with the unreal shit engine does at least
>>320247619
Too bad she has a nasty botox face
