This has to be one of the dirtiest moves a company has ever pulled.
You mean not releasing a new Zelda for a console?
As a Metroid fan, I laugh. Doesn't feel very good, I know.
Oh, haha, it is coming out for 2015 right *bobs head and laughs*
Yes, haha, it is coming out that's true! *bobs head and laughs*
Oh, haha, that's good to see the game coming out this year in 2015 haha *bobs head*
Sony promised ff versus xiii, the last guardian and the rockstar exclusive agent for the ps3 and they never came out. Well, not yet at least
>>335827656
>what is the last guardian
>what is final fantasy versus XIII
7 YEAR PREORDER
>>335828485
Yes, and? I stopped supporting them because of that, among other flubs and issues they've had. So this isn't some standard I only hold against Nintendo.
>>335827656
This has to be one of the most transparent shitposting attempt today
If your knowledge of the industry is only that of 2016, maybe.
Colonial Marines shits all over this.
is it though
>>335827656
Should have seen this coming the moment rumors about the NX started to surface. It is Twilight Princess all over again!
The lesson here is never ever ever ever preorder avideo game
>>335827656
If delaying a game is the dirtiest move you've ever seen a company pull, you must live in a very special world.
>>335828681
Not really. Shitty $60 purchase that you could see from a mile away it was going to be a waste of money VS a $350 machine people bought only for a new Zelda title.
I know that what Gearbox pulled was illegal and shit but for the consumer one is definitely worse.

Where have you been the last decade every zelda games been delayed at least once.
>>335827656

>>335827656

>>335829161
LBW wasn't delayed. Lo behold, despite clinging to LttP and having a flawed item system it'll probably be better than this game.
>>335829284
Just wait for the announcement that the PS3 version is canceled.
>>335829306
renting was a pretty refreshing take though.
>Bought a Wii U for Smash 4, it sucked
>Bought a Wii U for Metroid which never came out
>Bought a Wii U for Zelda which isn't even coming out anytime soon

>Bought a Wii U for Starfox which was lackluster
These are all the reasons why I sold mine on Kijiji.
>>335829161
Is being delayed to be sold with the NX. It's screwing with the WiiU users.
>>335829425
Oh man, if that happens, Iwon't even be mad because I have a PS4 but will sympathize with those who miss out.
>>335827656

At this point they might as well get a PS4, it's been 10 years already.
>>335827656
How is this bad? Most people would never buy a Wii U even for Zelda. This a way for those people to play this game, and to insure that the NX has a killer app right out the door. Something the Wii U had to wait a whole year for.

How? It's just a delay.
>>335829578
>What is Dragon's Dogma Online?
What's wrong with DDO?
>>335827656
The game got delayed so they can add in a female Link, and change some text shit to fit it.
They probably encountered some bugs while making these changes and this also partly caused the games constant delay.
Yet another reason to blame SJWs
>>335829971
Given how long consoles have lasted so far, it's not strange to expect. So far each Nintendo's main consoles have had at least one of each of those franchises he mentioned on it. Wii U was the first to fail at that.
>>335830047
The Japan only bit.
At least Dark Arisen was released on PC and a sequel is most likely coming.
>>335829524
Why is that bad exactly? Wii U owners are complete morons. I love a lot of the games Nintendo puts out, but I wouldn't be caught dead with a Wii U. The loss of the Wii U userbase has the same impact of dropping a grain salt into the Atlantic.

>>335827656
I think some people are really miss the point OP is making. Regardless whether it's the "dirtiest" or the worse, is left to suspicion. The reason they have to delay this game to simultaneously release this game along the NX...EVEN THOUGH after months and months of people claiming and accusing them that they're gonna put it on the NX...WHILE they denied it even being true, only to come out of literally the blue at early AM morning (in US) to release this news as if it wasn't that big of a deal.
It's just the fundamental of the whole thing how the game COULD possibly be ready for November...but they just decided to say fuck it and wait to screw people over this hard for it. Regarding whether people own a Wii U are idiots or buyers remorse is really irrelevant. You're only making excuses for them that completely idiotic.
I don't see why they couldn't like how The Last of Us Release went where they clearly released the game on the PS3, but said fuck and months later put it on the PS3. Literally nothing is stopping them from doing this.

Call me drone if you want but if we want to be completely honest the trailer they showed just said "2016", not "To be released in 2016".
They could have referred to the fact at E3 this year they will finally show it.
>>335832456
>seemingly unlimited amount of open world games
Do you mind naming some because that's all I could think of off the top of my head. Open World games cost ridiculous amounts of money to produce so not too many people make them

>>335832020

All they said was the game was still coming to Wii U. And it is. The game was not taken away from the Wii U. It just got delayed.

>>335832923
The difference is that PS3 is still alive and got a lot of good games after 2009. Wii U only has Xeno X, Bayo bundle and Wonderful 101.
>>335832754
DA:I, Destiny, Shadow of Mordor, Far Cry 4, Watch Dogs, AC: Unity, MGS:V, Witcher 3, Fallout 4, Arkham Knight, AC: Syndicate, XCX, Mad Max, FC: Primal, The Division, Dying Light, Just Cause 3 and so on.

You are quite clearly a retard, but i'll be ncie and try to explain to you slowly how
>everyone is getting tired of open world shit
False, many of the bigger release have been Open World. Some are badly done (FO4), other are Fine (GTA) and finally some are exceptionnal (XCX). Open world or not is not a point, it's the execution that matters.
>modern Zelda games are all pretty mediocre, like a lot of Nintendo games these days
AlbW was excellent, Triforce was Ok, and SS was pervfectly fine outside the lack of a true overworld. Your point would look less egregious if you didn,t decide to stupidly lump all the other Nintendo games in there like the retard you are.
>Amiibo tie ins
Always a funny one. If the amiibos give cosmetic then you complain they are expensive for nothing, if they give anything then they are DLC. Retarded either way.
>game is probably gonna have pretty boring dungeons, since you should be able to complete them in any order
Shows your stupidity pretty well. ALBW dungeons were fun, and Zelda already often had some leeway in dungeon order anyway, Like Darkworld 1 to 4 in AlttP or the Adult temples in OoT
>nobody is gonna buy the NX
Wanna bet a bag of dicks and crow?

That's because its reuses an engine and assets.

Zelda games get delayed until their subtitle is announced, this delay doesn't surprise me at all. I'm hoping for a release in April 2017.
>>335833527
Maybe because it was built around OoT, an already completed game?

I wouldn't say the dirtiest thing any company's done, but it's definitely the sleaziest thing Nintendo's ever committed. Literally worst Nintendo console next to Virtual Boy, and not by much.
>>335833950

Mark my words, you people will have to buy the Wii U version digital because Nintendo decided to focus more in the NX ver
>>335833909
He's right though. You faggots bitch whenever a game doesn't have enough content or the framerate dips for a few seconds
>>335833403
Most people on here dislike a lot of them though.
Granted the general public will eat up anything as long as it's caked up in bloom and has a billboard.
>>335833471
Didn't Aonuma straight out say that "old school" Zelda's were gone and it's gonna be something more "unique"/gimmicky from now on?
>>335833575
>Open world or not is not a point, it's the execution that matters.
And most games suffer from being Open world when they don't need to. Sure a little "field" area might be nice, but not a full huge open world map filled with either nothing in it, or copy paste content.
>AlbW was excellent, Triforce was Ok, and SS was pervfectly fine outside the lack of a true overworld. Your point would look less egregious if you didn,t decide to stupidly lump all the other Nintendo games in there like the retard you are.You know I'm right though. Their quality is really starting to shift downwards.
>Always a funny one. If the amiibos give cosmetic then you complain they are expensive for nothing, if they give anything then they are DLC. Retarded either way.
Well yeah, they are retarded by definition.

>>335834257
I'm not any of the guys you're replying to, but you can do all the bitching about open world gameplay in the world and it's not going to change the obvious new direction Zelda's taking. Quit being an insufferable faggot and just admit that the series isn't for you.
All this shitposting about the delay pretty much prove the average /v/ user wasn't born when Twilight Princess was delayed for years on GC or when the N64 itself was delayed several years.
Nintendo was doomed then but it's still here.
Nintendo is doomed now but they will still be here in ten or twenty years.

>>335834745
It used to be.
>>335827656
Doesn't beat Spore. All those delays for disappointment.
I didn't expect this game to come out this year, nor did I expect the NX to come out in 2016.
All this drama surrounding Nintendo and the release dates is weird and serves no greater purpose than to make sure they release more bad games in the future; forcing the cliche that Nintendo cater to their fans.
>>335834772
>Nintendo was doomed then but it's still here.
>Nintendo is doomed now but they will still be here in ten or twenty years.
Yes. As a shell of it's former shell, Nintendo only in name.
>>335834951
Yeah, exactly, that was what people said twenty years ago too.
>>335834850
Exactly. So it's time to get over it.
I am a New Vegas and FO1&2 faggot, but even then I admitted 4 was beyond saving. Same thing for Fire Emblem for a lot of people pre-Awakening.
Complain all you want but FO is fucking dead to me, as is Zelda for you. It's time to move on, anon.
>>335834850
But it's not anymore, and most people except for a particularly vocal minority are fine with open world.
Move on with your life.
>>335835053But 20 years ago Nintendo still made must play games.
Im more pissed off that they're dedicated E3 just on the Zelda series and the ONE game. Who the fuck cares? Show me different games, not this shit that was delayed.
>>335828591
That's really petty lad
>>335835140
You seem to think I think it's some sort of huge deal that will make or break the game. It's just one of the reasons I think it will be a lesser Zelda game. It alone will not make the game bad, but all of them together might make it a bit unsatisfying is what I'm saying.
>>335829103

They did just say the show would be focused on it, and that it would be the only game playable on the show floor, but they didn't say it would be the only game period.
Not that I'm expecting much else, they're very clearly struggling for things to talk about. They were already struggling to find things to talk about last year.
>>335835423
Me. But I'm a big exception. I won my WiiU in a tournament so...I got it for free.

They did it in the past, It's called Twillight Princess. The diference is that GameCube had already its own Zelda game but WiiU will be the first Nintendo console withouth its own Zelda.
>>335835438
The majority of faggots that say that are PCFats though. They don't want to spend money on a console that'll be gathering dust every 6 months.
I agree with them.
>>335835443
Don't get me started with SE. Outside of DQ, and games like Setsuna the company is dead to me.
I'm done with this company. I wash my hands of them. I've been a fan of their products since I was a kid but for the last 10 years they've done nothing but make stupid decisions and drop in quality. I keep hoping for one good thing that will make it all worth it, but I finally accept now that it's never coming.
Everyone thought this ridiculous drought of quality games or announcements was because they we're keeping them all saved to show alongside the NX at E3 this year. Now we learn that not only will there be no NX, but that the only Wii U game they plan to show (Zelda), which we have been waiting for since the Wii U was fucking announced, doesn't even come out for another year... so it can release simultaneously on the NX. It's the biggest "fuck you" imaginable.
The Wii U is an embarrassment of a console. It has a few good titles, but so many more are just plain mediocre or shit. First party titles used to be your guarantee that you were getting your money's worth on a Nintendo console. Now you have to pray they don't fuck it up somehow. 3D World is bland shit. NSMB is tired garbage. Star Fox is mediocre. Yoshi is mediocre. Paper Mario is stillborn. Amiibo Festival is an insult. No Metroid, no, F-Zero, no proper 3D Mario, no Zelda to call its own. The best games are third-parties or from secondary Nintendo studios. Everyone is holding out for Zelda, but really, the best it can hope is to be better than Skyward Sword. There's no way it'll be as good as the rest of the series with Nintendo the way it is now.
Instead of giving the Wii U injection of good games it so badly needs, they're killing it off early to replace it with a new console where they will most likely make all the same mistakes and have all the same problems, while also competing against an established console that is one of the most successful ever. It's fucking unbelievable how moronic this company is.
>>335835658
Obviously not, but then again i've got a few thousand hours on my WiiU, so the argument that the games are shit are always funny to me.
>>335835657
Well...no.
>>335835423
Me and almost all my friends. There are many other's out there that did the same.
Do you really not understand that it's a common thing for people to buy a nintendo console for Zelda alone?
Sure you could say it's stupid but no one really cares.
>>335835731
Lol no, Sonyponies, every single time. They even got their collection of bait images for it.
Nah. It's just smart.
>Release Zelda for Holiday 2016 and an NX version March 2017
>Small boost to Wii U sales
>NX loses a console-pusher
>Release Zelda for March 2017
>Wii U owners get the game
>NX launches out the gate with a strong 1st-party title
Also there is ultimately nothing wrong with having a Zelda game delayed.
Rushing an "open world" game is never pretty.
>>335835832
>Muh anecdotals
lol
Spoiler: It's not coming out, Nintendo are screwed.
>>335835867
It's everyone, really. When all Nintendo has is their first parties, I wonder if they're better off pulling off a Sega and releasing all their games on every other console instead.
>>335835880
You can't bring logic into a Nintendo thread. It doesn't work that way.
>>335835970
Sure bruh.
>>335835979
if by everyone you mean retards, yes, sure.
>I wonder if they're better off pulling off a Sega and releasing all their games on every other console instead.
Then you are quite the idiot. The answer is No.
Do people still care about Zelda?
If you were ever hyped for Zelda U, you deserve it for being stupid.
You have seen nothing of value and hyped yourself for that.
>>335836057
Well i guess it's possible. I'm just used to myself, my familly and friends not beign absolute retards, so when some random shitposter on /v/ comes forward with a story where him and his whole entourage are bumbling moron it's not easy for me to relate.
>>335831805
Which is funny because its 10 time more fun than Skyward Sword.
>>335836109
Why not? Nobody cares about waggle or motion control or literally anything else. That shit is weighing them down. If locking down their games will give them further losses, they're better off going to every other platform instead. Won't happen until at least half a decade though.
>>335835832
You're either lying, or an idiot.
You're telling me that you and your friends went out and bought a console with no games that interests you so you can play a game that isn't even out. Really.
>>335832597
>Aunouma wants quality so he delayed it
If Aonuma wanted quality, he'd remove himself from Zelda development permanently.
>>335827656
Really? Of ALL the things to list off as a the dirtiest move a company has ever pulled, Delaying a Zelda game is the top of the list?
>>335835970
Honestly, he's right. Zelda simply appeals to a much wider fanbase than any other Nintendo franchise at this point, so it's not unthinkable that dozens of people would buy the console solely for Zelda U.
>>335836174
Used to be my favorite series. But it has gotten worse every new game since the Wii. To the point that I don't even care about Zelda U.
So pretty much, now Zelda is not only a cinematic/story focused game like Final Fantasy, but also a series spiraling down like Final Fantasy.
>>335836174
People with no taste who have somehow not realized that the series completely went to shit over 10 years ago do.
>>335835832
Nigga those people normally wait until the fucking game is out, or at least until it'd approaching release. Congratulations, you and your friends are retarded, but it doesn't matter because that didn't happen and you're bullshitting
>>335833237
Kek, that'll be good to see. The only thing I see it being better at is combat, but Zelda combat is literally Musou for babbies.
>>335836491
>Zelda simply appeals to a much wider fanbase than any other Nintendo franchise at this point
Smash Bros, Mario and Pokemon have both higher sales and a wider demographic than Zelda.
>>335836201
I've been more curious than hyped, really. I'm just waiting on that one inevitable horrible piece of news that ruins the whole thing.
>>335836491
And those people buy the console before the thing releases, do they
>>335836491
>i believe that retard because it fits my view
What if i said that 3 of my closest friend, all extreme fan of Zelda, Don't have WiiU's because they would wait for it to drop?
I suspect the difference here is that said friend are college STEM graduate instead of random tards.
>>335830164
N64 had no Metroid and only one Mario game. Wii had no Star Fox game.
>>335829284
>tfw no persona 5 for europe
well ok, glad ps4 has no region lock like nintendo and their shit
>>335836606

> WiiU launches in 2012
> I'm first in line

> "just the console please, for I will sit on it until a Zelda is released, rather than getting the console when the Zelda game is out"
Yeah okay
>>335836804
Looks likethey have taken the first napkin
>>335835816
Then absolutely no one cares
>>335836639
>Aonuma wants to challenge conventions of Zelda, such as not doing certain dungeons in order
There's your piece of bad news, since it's Aonuma that's responsible for the game and his method of "challenging conventions" is to do exactly what the series conventions were before he ruined the franchise.
On paper "challenging conventions" sounds good, but this is the same motherfucker that finds Octoroks in the original Zelda impossible to defeat and thinks lifting rocks and cutting grass are the most fun things about LttP.
>>335836491
No, he's not. Look at sales numbers. People bought Wii Us for Mario Kart, Smash, Splatoon and Mario, not the Zelda game that hasn't been anything but a short teaser and some screenshots for three years.
If you're going to point to one game and say
>Lots and lots of people held out for that one game and bought the console just for it
It would be Smash, not Zelda. I and everyone I know who has a Wii U waited until smash released to buy, it was the primary reason I and everyone I know bought the console.
>>335836247
Zelda fans nigga. Not Nintendo. Just Zelda fans.
>>335836967
So Zelda fans are retards who buy a console before the only game they want is out
>>335836427
I don't see why other people spending their money upsets you so much.
Plus I got mine for $100 so I'm not that upset. At least this way I won't miss out on Mario Maker and Splatoon.
>>335836967
Is it shitposting lingo for imaginary people you invent for your argument? Because that's likely it
>>335836756
>N64
1 Kirby game, 1 Mario game, and literally the dawn of console shooters and collectathon platformers and Smash Bruddas itself.
>Wii
2 Mario games, a really damn good Sonic game after a million years, several good weeaboo games, an okay Brawl mod, two Zelda games, one Kirby game, and the best version of RE4.
>Wii U
Muh Splatoon and Bayo2
>>335836491
>unthinkable that dozens of people would buy the console solely for Zelda U.
Yes it fucking is because anyone that 1. Buys a console for one game that 2. Isn't even out or has a release date, is a fucking retard. These people don't fucking exist.
>>335836932
They said the same shit for skyward sword. I remember reading a ninpower interview for it and he was promising all kinds of concepts just like that that never made it to the game. Im a big zelda fan and ill be surprised if this new one is good
>>335836558
>getting this upset over how people use their money
>>335837172
Then you didn't buy it for one game, that didn't have a release date, you retard.
>>335836878
No one said anything about purchasing at launch faggot.
>>335837238
And XCX and SMM and W101 and Tropical Freeze and MK8 and Pikmin 3 etc.
>>335836932
To be honest, those actions in ALttP are comfy as fuck. There hasn't been an as fluid Zelda ever since, except maybe Twilight Princess but it's so dull and shit I don't even care.
>>335837461
Basically the same principle. Buying a console for a game that isn't out is retarded.
>>335837201
kek
>>335836932
>le Aonuma boogeyman
You do realize he was responsible for OoT, right? And that he designed many dungeons, items, enemies, etc. for the game? That when he was actually involved directly in the design process the games were amazing and constantly held up on a pedestal as an example of what the series should be?
No, you wouldn't know that, it doesn't fit your boogeyman narrative :^)
>>335837353
>oh shit I got called out for my retarded anecdote, better act nonchalant
Worst kind of poster
>>335837238
>Wii
>one Kirby game
Nigga it had both the two best kirby games in the whole series, unless maybe you're emotionally attached to one of the SNES ones.
>>335837464
XCX is a mixed bag for tons of people and has a HUD that's Bloomberg tier, W101 isn't Bayonetta tier, Tropical Freeze is more of the same (albeit prefer it more over New Super Marioshit), and Pikmin 3 is the worst one.
Mario Maker is good but I'm not going to exactly go out of my way to buy a Wii U if it's the only thing that interests me. MK8 is great tho.
>>335837683
>Kirby game
>Epic Yawn
Pick one.
>>335837410
Except I did. I didn't get a Wii U to play those games. Zelda was the factor that made me cave and pick up a cheap Wii U.
Playing around with shit already out is just a bonus.
>>335837238
>Muh Splatoon and Bayo2
And the THREE Mario games, Star Fox, Pikmin 3, Donkey Kong, Kirby, Smash, etc.
>>335837683
Forgot about Yarn. It's alright but kind of dull for a Kirby game. It's too chill.
>>335837569
Aonuma was one of five directors of OoT. Like Sakamoto, he works well on a team where others check his work. But also like Sakamoto, he sucks when he is the head director/producer and doesn't have someone like Tezuka or Koizumi to tell him his ideas are bad.
>>335837759
So, your rebuttal is that you have shit taste and retarded opinions. It is as expected
>>335837759
Fine if it doesn't interest you but there's plenty to play. XCX is easily the best open-world game I've played in years, the open world was actually enjoyable to explore. Shits all over Witcher 3 and fucking Fallout.
>>335837683
>unless maybe you're emotionally attached to one of the SNES ones.
Not him. But I'm the most nostalgia attached to Kirby's Adventure on the NES. And want another game like that. Which is impossible since Iwata is dead and Sakurai is stuck in Smash Bros hell.
I'm not worrying. I can just replay the older games in the meantime.
As long as the finished products comes out great, it's worth the wait.
The last thing I want is a glitchy piece of shit.
>>335837832
Then why did you buy it before the game was out, or had a release date? That's something retards do.
>>335837904
Point being people praise the dungeon design in OoT constantly and Aonuma was the one who designed lots of them. They complain about him "ruining" the series when he's a figurehead supervisor not directly involved in the design process and conveniently ignore the fact that he was directly involved in designing the games that are praised for being well-designed.
>>335837865
>Mario
All shit compared to NSMBDS, NSMBW, and MG1&2.
>Star Fox
You mean the one that's shit? Moving on.
>Pikmin 3
Worst of the series and expensive as fuck to buy physically, good luck buying a hard drive and digital copy just for the one game you'd care about.
>DK
Good but more of the same.
>Smash
Not Melee
>Kirby
You mean the game that should have been a shitty 3DS game where you look more at that crappy 480p screen than the TV itself?
>>335837569
>You do realize he was responsible for OoT, right? And that he designed many dungeons, items, enemies, etc. for the game?
Stop this revisionist history. All Aonuma did for OoT was some dungeon design, and he was responsible for the Water Temple, the one dungeon the vast majority of people can agree was poorly-designed.
Miyamoto and Koizumi did most of the design work for OoT.
>That when he was actually involved directly in the design process the games were amazing and constantly held up on a pedestal as an example of what the series should be?
Hahaha, no. Half of Majora's Mask was Koizumi, and Majora's Mask is a Zelda game for people who hate Zelda. Wind Waker was Aonuma's baby and it was vehemently loathed. People cheered for Twilight Princess because it was a return to the realistic art direction of OoT, despite the game itself being hot garbage. Phantom Hourglass and Spirit Tracks were the worst Zelda games ever made barring the ones on the CD-i, but I'd honestly rather play those than force myself to play through PH or ST again. Aonuma has been nothing but a cancer to the Zelda series and has turned a once good series about exploration and survival into a shitty visual novel with time-wasting piss-easy puzzles.
Aonuma was hired because he made wooden dolls. He had zero game design experience but Miyamoto liked his dolls. Every game Aonuma has had a large role in developing has been shit, but hey, it must just be coincidence!
>>335837238
WiiU has Mario 3D World wich was fucking fantastic.
The Kirby game is also surprisingly good. The gameplay is different, but the music and the visuals are top notch, not to mention it's a bit more challenging than your average Kirby game, which is arguebly a good thing.
Also, the best Mario Kart by far. Managing to dethrone Mario Kart DS by reducing significantly the rubber-banding and adjusting the RNG.
>>335838131
>Nintendo didn't push a 2016 holiday release at all this last year
>>335831805
What?
ALBW is as much as a main title as this will be.
ALBW is in the "Fallen Hero" timeline. It's considered part of the 2D Zelda series.
Or are you one of those fags who dont consider the 2D games mainline titles?
>>335838246
MK8 is fantastic, I agree. I like it more than DS which is saying a lot. Everything else is a disappointment, though.
>>335837987
4 I believe, but not TW3. They're hardly the same game, and if you want story, you'll be disappointed in XCX and want something more like TW3 instead.
>>335837904
Not that guy, but anyone who isn't a part of a vocal minority agrees that Wind Waker and Twilight Princess were fantastic games and he directed those.
Just shut the fuck up about Aonuma, this played out shit got old two years ago.
>>335827656
I don't see a problem. What's happening?
>>335838223
>Water Temple, the one dungeon the vast majority of people can agree was poorly-designed.
The only thing actually bad about the dungeon was having to switch iron boots on and off. The design of it was fine, even if a bunch of people who are bad video games got lost and called it impossible.
>>335838206
>Let me meme up some retarded opinions so i can continue shitposting
>>335838334
what is triforce heroes then?
>>335838438
>anyone who isn't a part of a vocal minority agrees that Wind Waker and Twilight Princess were fantastic games and he directed those.
Twilight Princess is the most divisive game in the series. Please stop acting like your opinion is the 'vocal majority'. Plenty of people disliked Twilight Princess. Especially the primary market it was aimed at, Ocarina of Time fans. Since Twilight Princess was trying to be a revival of the 'feeling of Ocarina of Time', but just ended up being brown and bloom shit.
>>335837989
Isn't the GBA one supposed to be a remake of Kirby's Adventure? I have a lot of catching up to do on the handheld games, but I do belive that to be the case.
Adventure is great, but if they resolved the lag issues it's already a great improvement for me.
>>335837809
Accept it already, anon. Kirby has gone through so many iterations that things like yarn Kirby and ball Kirby are barely a spin-off anymore. It's canon now.
>>335837901
Kirby games are the epitome of chill, though. It's no wonder they revisited the aesthetic with Yoshi's Wooly world.
>Final Fantasy Versus XIII preordered in 2006
>still isn't released
THANKS NOMURA
>>335830660
>don't delay game
>broken at launch
AC: Unity, Halo: MCC, etc...
>>335838164
But Aonuma didn't design the dungeons alone. You really can't tell where Aonumas design started or ended. But you can tell that as many of the long time Zelda producers left and Aonuma got more control of the series, things started to get worse.
>>335838690
Exactly. Anon should stop being everyone's mouthpiece. That game felt so dull and uninspired to me. I feel like they felt adding a furry would hide the fact it's basically OoT 2.0.
>>335838734
>Isn't the GBA one supposed to be a remake of Kirby's Adventure?
Yes. But I personally didn't like the changed sprites that made the game play more like Super Star.
>>335828485
>bbbut sony!!!!
>>335838832
>Nintendo is so incompitent they need 2 years of delays and a completely different console just to release a working product
Lmao
>>335832472
I thought it was great when we hear a big budget game at E3 that's releasing that fall
Except it was literally rushed
The fact that Star Fox Zero managed to get delayed and not Fallout says a lot
>Gigantic new Zelda in development for years on the horizon, it's going to have tons of content, AND a huge spectacle at E3
>Silence from numerous Nintendo studios like EAD and Retro for years means we've got multiple top-Nintendo-quality games on the way
>Shift in game output from Nintendo from ~30 games/year to ~15 games/year suggests massive shift of development to NX
>Still 1 year out from NX release, so we'll likely have a ton of great games at launch, including Zelda
>Wii U showed marked improvement over Wii in HD graphics, motion refinement, online capability, and social connectivity, basically Nintendo's experimentation ground for modernizing it's approach to development
All of this suggests to me that NX is going to be fucking amazing. And it's releasing in spring 2017, away from competitor releases, so it's got a shot to capture the market for years. I'm pretty hyped.
>>335838896
