Are you 12?
>>333170852
I can not describe you how i felt when they showed us how it ended up being. A persona karaoke Lite edition that has nothing to do with smt or fe. I also remember the whole internet defending it and calling me a normal fag for not liking it.
>>333170720
>he bought a ps4.5 for Kingdom Hearts 3
>>333170631
>He bought a wii u for Zelda
>He bought a wii u for Metroid
Yup, and that's why I sold it after realizing Nintendo won't get it together. Also, Metroid Prime devs moved on to the Xbone.
>He bought a pc for batman
>>333171103
>Also, Metroid Prime devs moved on to the Xbone.
Had this conversation many times. Some say only literally 2 people left, some others say at least a dozen. I cant find a source for any of these claims.
>>333170720
>>333171103
Also yeah, i avoided the wii u all together. Twice i was VERY close to buying it. Like 2 clicks away. But i couldn't do it. And in the end, it was the best video game decision of my life so far.
How did you sell it? Honest question, who bought it?
>>333171420
Bundled it with my pro controller as well as the 6 games I had for it and sold all of it for $400 to some guy. I got lucky I guess not having to sell it all off piece by piece.
>>333171337
Well it's confirmed they have the studio that did Metroid Prime 3, as well as them having Mark Pacini who directed the whole series.
>>333171778
Whats that new name they showed at E3 called? Made by the people who did metroid prime?
>>333171616
Should add that I put an ad up on Kijiji (Canada) listing all of the games/controller/console individually, but someone offered to buy the whole thing. I think I lost like $80-$120 overall by selling it for the $400 but I was just happy to have it all gone.
>>333171927
ReCore
As much as I derive sexual joy out shitting on Nintendo, the WiiU is actually the best console of this generation, simply because it's the only device on the market that's content to remain a game console instead of some "home entertainment platform" bullshit.
Please don't kick the Nintendo grandpa while he's still down.
>>333170631
>they bought a piece of hardware for software that's not out yet
There, now you have all bases covered.
>>333172187
I used to think EXACTLY like you did 3 years ago.
And then i realized that i am no longer the main target audience.
>sold my wii u yesterday
i played bayonetta 1, super mario 3d world, splatoon, xeno x, a lil bit of zombi u, mario kart 8, hyrule warriors , monster hunter 3u , so pretty much all the good games on it (except zombi u, didnt try bayo 2 since i dont like bayo that much) .
all in all was a great console,too bad they dropped support so fast, i dont care about zelda that much (and its gonna end up on NX anyway )
>>333172351
who IS the main target demographic, then?
>>333171778
They have the studio? No way, Retro is a Ninty first-party.
>>333172413
Figure it out yourself. It isn't me who started with a snes and loves the Hard nintendo games like f-zero gx or melee. That's my tip.
>He bought a wii u for Zelda
>He bought a wii u for Metroid
I'm still mad as fuck.But I guess 400 hours into MH3U and 150 hours into Xenoblade is worth the console.
>>333172473
Sorry you're right, some of the devs of MP3 branched off and formed Armature Studio, which is working on ReCore.
>>333172573
>But I guess 400 hours into MH3U and 150 hours into Xenoblade is worth the console.
No, it isn't. That's literally like 5% of my time in melee. Stop defending them, seriously, stop it. Open your eyes.
>>333172661
What the fuck?
Just because you're autistic enough playing a game for like more than 5 years and havon so much hours into it, doesn't mean every console should have such a game you can invest that much into it.
That anon's spend 550 hours on two fucking games, and probably enjoyed it. That't more than worth.
The average game nowadays doesn't last longer than 15 hours anyway. Stop being retarded please.
>>333173012
No, 500 hours for a console is not a justified purchase. Stop spouting buzzwords.
>He bought an X for Y game that didn't come out
What's the point? You can still play said game day 1 even if you don't already have the console
>>333173072
>No, 500 hours for a console is not a justified purchase
Wanna cite this "fact"? Maybe prove that someone else gives a shit aside from you?
>hebuild a pc for TF2.almost ten years ago :(
>>333173247
I am just going to assume that you are messing with me and end it here. Nobody has corporate dick THIS far up his ass. I refuse to believe it. Have a nice day.
>>333173072
>No, 500 hours for a console is not a justified purchase. Stop spouting buzzwords.
It's 550, anon :^).
Also, yes it fucking is. For a 200€ worth console that is enough. With just two games.
I also guess those are not the only games that anon played. Besides, he will get his Zelda, that's even more.
Could you stop being retarded?
>>333173356
I'm not even that anon you were arguing with, I just know you're a classic /v/ dweller that rattles off his own opinions as facts without backing it up, and it's a fucking retarded sight to see.
>>333170720
Why should I always be remembered of that?
>>333173072
I bought a gaming PC and sank less than 100 hours in 4 years. But it's justified, it's a nice 4chan browser

Sorry I couldn't jack off to squid lolis and play Shiek vs ZSS: The Game with you anon ):
I got a lot of money lately, found a good job.
What should i do?
Buy a wii U or wait for the NX?
Buy a ps4 or wait for the ps4k?
Or build a good PC?
My old pc isn't bad actually, but it's falling appart lately and i am tired of fixing it. (New cooler, changing the thermal paste every 6 months, the psu got fucked twice, had to buy a new one. I formatted it a million times, Drivers that got me blue screens, it just shuts off after a while on its own and o, it's not the temeprature of the cpu nor the psu, the motherboard must be broken) and a ton of other standard PC issues which frankly, i am tired of off. But thanks to those hundreds of PC crashes, bugs and geenral problesm of gaming PC's, i now know how to solved them, but i would love to buy a console for once.
So what do i do guys?

Unlike Zelda, Last Guardian, and FF...Metroid and F-Zero were never announced
>>333175971

Meaningless when the games are shit. I'd rather just skip this console gen, and spend my money upgrading my PC

Do you have that one pic where it shows the PC components and the price range?

>>333170631
>He bought XONE for exclusives
>>333172187
But the wiiu is supposed to be a home entertainment box. Hence why it has TV controls and Netflix etc. I bought yesterday and it doesn't seem any different to me than the other consoles...

True Master Race is Idort Master Race. I'll be sitting over here enjoying all of vidya while you filthy little faggots fling shit and poke each others buttholes.
I haven't bought a Nintendo console since the Wii, because I'm tired of Nintendos stupid fucking control gimmicks man.
Just give me a normal fucking controller and good hardware that isn't a generation behind the rest of the platforms, and get some decent 3rd party devs on board for fucks sake.
>>333170631
I don't understand this. If you want a game that isn't out, you're always better off waiting for it to release, reading the reviews, and then buying it with the console. It's not like they get more expensive over time.
>>333170720
The call it KH3 because it takes 3 generations to make.

Save your money, make nice investments (not just on the stock market, but in gold or high-value items such as sought after vinyl records).
Wait a couple of years, then get all the vidya you want because you'll be racking in the dough in no time (if you spend your money wisely).
>>333170631
Honestly I just stick with PC until the consoles are 3-4 years into their lifespans.
Gives me enough deciding time to see if any of them have any worthile games out or coming before blatantly buying.
>>333178614
Saving money for a car right now.
>>333174335
And to think that Nomura kept delaying it to make FF XV fps and when he could've time to make KH3 they announced the remake for FF VII.
Well, see you guys in the next generation after some more secondaries games.
>>333170631
Still waiting for F-Zero, it'll be on the NX right guys?
>>333180342
F-Zero failed in the arcades. That's why you haven't gotten another.
>>333180342
No, stop holding out for a game the creator isn't interested in making.
>>333172661
>That's literally like 5% of my time in melee

>>333171062
The crossover had potential man. How did they bungle it so hard? Fuck. Fuck this gay earth.
>>333170631
No, I bought a Wii U for Wonderful 101 and Bayonetta 2, then eventually got Dong Freeze, MK8, Sm4sh, XCX, Hyrule Warriors, SM3DW, One Piece Unlimited World R and Splatoon. People who base their purchase decisions on games that aren't even close to coming out are beyond retarded.
Wanna know something truly sad?
I bought a WiiU whenSMTxFEwas announced.
>Buying a console for a game that's not announced and thus you have no reason to believe actually exists
Holy shit, if you do this you have absolutely no one to blame but yourself for being a gigantic moron. If it's a game that's announced and then gets pushed back a gen/cancelled, you've got reason to be disappointed (though you still should have waited for the thing to actually release like a person with a shred of patience), but otherwise, maybe you should get someone else to make your purchasing decisions for you if you're that stupid.
>>333180342
The studio that made the last F-Zero game, the REALLY GOOD one, was a Sega branch dedicated to high-momentum gameplay that literally no longer exists and hasn't since like, 2005.
Nintendo knows full well they aren't going to top GX. Let the series rest at its peak.
>>333176797
>Meaningless when the games are shit
So it's meaningful then, since the games are good?
>>333170720
It'd mostly be PS3 and PS4 though. Why would people buy a PS2 for the third entry of the series when they'd need to buy a PS2 to play the originals.
>He bouch a 3DS for zelda
yup, albw only game I bought for it ever and had it for 2,5 years.
>>333170631
I bought a Wii U for Sm4sh and Mario Kart since we don't really have any games we can play when my cousins come over.
Then I got Splatoon, Xenoblade X and Bayonetta.
Can't say I regret it, probably would have if I bought PS4 since the only game on that console that interests me is Bloodborne.
Even worse if I bought an Xbone since that thing literally has no games.
>He bought a PS4 for Knack
>>333182854
How's that sad?
Japanese audio confirmed. The gameplay turned out terrific. It's all great!
I bought a WiiU for MH3U, XENOBLADE
I don't complain
thank you NINTENDO
>>333170631
>bought a ps3 for KH3

>>333183960
Stop buying consoles for games that aren't announced, you fucking dolt.
Zelda's still coming to the Wii U anyway, NX version or not.
>>333173072
People spend $30 for dvd of a 1.5 hour movie, or $60 for a 7 hour game. If I spend $500 on a console and a couple games that gives me 500 hours of entertainment I'd say $1 per hour is pretty fucking good.

At least this thought me , that not buying nintendo consoles and emulating instead is the proper way to play nintendo stuff.
>>333184026
Consolefags beat Crysis finally?Or have any version of any multiplat that looks better than the PC counterpart? :^)
>>333171337
Literally the whole upper staff and the lead programmers left.
The lead programmers formed bluepoint and now work for sony, the lead artist left to 343i to work on halo and the director and some designer formed armature. And there are probably many more.
At this point retro mostly consists of ex vigil devs and some naughty dog dropouts.
The majority of the original devs left.
>>333171103
>Also, Metroid Prime devs moved on to the Xbone.
just Mark Pacini bud
Retro was still around during FF development to design the Golems while Tanabe was producing Returns, Sticker Star, and Tropical Freeze
>He bought a ps3 AND a ps4 for the last guardian
That's me.
That is my life.
>>333186270
>the lead artist left to 343i to work on halo
oh jesus
no wonder why people scream "Metroid Prime!" during Halo 4's reveal
>buying system for unreleased games
for literally what purpose? the only thing that happen when waiting is price drops, better hardware and actually having a fresh shiny console the day your dream game is out. Where is the drawback?
>>333180342
you're going to get this instead
smash secondaries rules this franchise
>>333187221
It's that feeling of "one step closer to playing my dream game" that gets people.
>>333186270
>Bluepoint works almost exclusively on ports and HD collections
Oof. That's a real step down.
Considering how strong the Donkey Kong Country Returns games were, Retro clearly still has plenty of their top talent left.
