Re: The Official Nintendo NX Thread
Of course I'll be in on day 1. It's Nintendo! I'm happy with power comparable to ps4/xbone. Better than what we've had last 2 gens from Nintendo. All I want is to feel that sense of wonder and awe I 1st had when playing Mario 64. That was a moment I'll never forget and so far has never been replicated. It changed gaming for me forever. I want that moment again...

Great thread.
I actually don't care about a launch wish list, we know the same IPs will be wheeled out.

Re: The Official Nintendo NX Thread
I'd like to see a stronger relationship with companies like Sega, Capcom and Namco. Bring back the traditional Jap companies and make games based on their Mascots.
New Megaman, Sonic with a greater input from Nintendo, a decent Pacman adventure with some of those awesome pacman games we have seen recently. Make mascots big again.

A new Wave Race would be really good! I was blown away by the original. Can't imagine two 1st party racing games at launch though...

If there's one man who can recapture that wonder and awe for me, it's Shigeru Miyamoto. Deep down I know you're right though, but it's something I hold onto every time Nintendo announce and release a new console...

Re: The Official Nintendo NX Thread
I'll no doubt be there day1.
I've really enjoyed the Wii, WiiU, DS and 3DS.
Spla2oon or at least a port of Splatoon would make it an absolute sure thing though.

Re: The Official Nintendo NX Thread
I really, really hope they implement 3D support. Those 3D Classics games were sensational. The Sega ones especially are like playing them the they were always meant to be.

Re: The Official Nintendo NX Thread
My wishlist
Mario fps using fireballs similar to rayman energy balls in rayman 3d (the longer you hld button the heavier the ball.The ball would have physics so that smaller ones shoot further and bigger ones push enemies further but droop down. Punching the ground while unleashing a fireball lets you boost jump into the air like a superjump in mvc and can be used as a defensive attack that hits anything close range and do group damage. You wear fire retardant suit.
Donkey Kong spectacle brawler where you get angry like kratos and bash up all the rival apes in the jungle in cartoony violent ways. watch old ren and stimpy cartoos for guidance.
Battallion wars sequel that involves alien invasion. Nntendos answer to the EDF games but more tactical

Re: The Official Nintendo NX Thread
Wish list:
Really don't know at this stage if I'll dive in on launch. Odds are I'll say I won't, then cave on the day.
- New Metroid game in either the main series or Prime (none of this Other M or Federation Force bullshit)
- New main series Pokémon game that can be played portably and as a traditional console experience
- Full B/C with WiiU hardware and software
- Non-retarded user account system
- Metroid? lol
- Childhood Pokémon dreams will be fulfilled, but not for launch
- Digitally purchased WiiU games might work but there'll be no way to play WiiU discs
- The user account system will be incrementally improved but still light years behind the competition

Re: The Official Nintendo NX Thread
if Nintendo really are going the WiiU BC route, they could offer a WiiU drive as an add-on?

Re: The Official Nintendo NX Thread
I know i'm definitely not in the majority here, but I have absolutely loved Nintendo this last generation (of nintendo consoles, Wii U and 3DS). Of course things havent been the best, and I have only just got myself a PS4, but I still find myself playing Splatoon, Mario Maker and Mario Kart a lot. For me, I was just about to give up gaming. Games weren't going where my taste in games are these days for the most part. I am really glad the indie scene is really taking off because it's those games so far that I have been spending my time on the most on my Wii U and PS4.
However I'm a big skeptic of the NX. After spending a ton of money on some great titles on the 3DS I almost never play it any more. And the recent announcement of the SNES VC games only being for the New 3DS just annoys me to no end. I'm not upgrading just to play old games on the move. I don't see much appeal any more with any handheld device. I want my games to be played on my TV. Not on my phone. Not on my laptop. Not on a dedicated handheld device. Still they might have something that surprises me as I do use the gamepad a lot when i'm watching Youtube on my TV. I love the browser as well. I am still sold on the whole Gamepad experience for the most part. I'm not a big fan of shooter games, but god do I love splatoon. It's the perfect game for me. I don't have to use a gun if i don't want to. AND i adore the gyro controls. It just makes more sense to me. Feels natural.
My PS4 HDD is starting to collect some good games on it thanks to Playstation Plus and other discounts. Bastion. Fez. Galak-Z. Broforce. Rocket League. Valiant Hearts. I'm really starting to love playing games again. Something that without the Wii and Wii U, a lapsed gamer like myself would probably have given up by now. I like playing in short bursts mostly. But the games have that depth that if I want to spend a night playing it, then I can. I'm really looking forward to Assault Android Cactus, and want to give SMITE a better go too when I get the time. I'm just not sure how Nintendo is going to keep up.
Mario Kart is basically my only repeat offender mario game that i really enjoy. I could care less about the new Paper Mario Colour Splash. Really? It's so yawn worthy. I didn't mind 3D world. Mario Maker is ok but I don't make levels. I just play everyone elses. I really don't need another 2D mario game ever until this one stops being supported. Ive never been a fan of Zelda titles. I love pokemon, so having that on the big screen is definitely going to be a deciding factor. But I want to see more games and new IP like Splatoon. In my opinion it's in my top 3 games of all time. I want to see fresh ideas or takes on genres with that Nintendo feel but without Mario.
So will i get an NX, I think I will. Will it be day 1 like the Wii U and 3DS? No. Will the PS4 be my most played console in the coming years? I really think yes. I do think that having the one console to develop for instead of 2 (handheld and home console like 3DS and Wii U) will help a lot with software droughts. And we wont have to put up with a Mario Tennis/Golf/Party/ etc games padding out the consoles library on both systems. If all that effort went into just the one version then we could be seeing a lot more games a lot more often, and hopefully some new IP that doesn't involve Mario.
Still i don't regret my Wii U purchase at all. It has had a lot of good eshop games. Not having large internal storage was a pain, but I put up with it. When more gets announced about the NX my feelings could change but I am adopting a wait and see approach this time. The whole handheld hybrid thing is something that has it's pro's and con's. I'm not sure if the pro's outweigh the con's for me. Yet.

Re: The Official Nintendo NX Thread
You say you prefer playing games on the large screen, but I think most retro games are better IN 3D on the small screen. Here's why:
-old games are short with ugly pixelated graphics. Small screen tidies the graphics up. Shorter games suit playing on public transport like the train.
-the handheld only uses basic controls for arcade titles like double dragon, streets of rage, 2d mario etc
-you can fit dozens of them on tiny card. Home consoles should mostly be for BIG games that are double digit GB in size. Big screen needs more detailed visual to fill up the screen. That's why I think it was ridiculous for them not to at least make SNES and GBA titles release simultaneously on wii u eshop and the 3DS eshop together.
You lose nothing by me having the freedom to play stuff like Final Fight 3 or Yoshi's Island or Super Punch Out! on the little screen in 3d while you play your wii u version of the same game on the big screen. I think like region coding nintendo needs to be called out on its bullshit.
Love the games they make but they should have stuff like Phantasy Star Zero from the NDS on Wii U eshop, while on the 3DS they have all the old SNES and GBA 2D classics. It's common sense.
DS and Wii and GC games go to the big tv. (wii u eshop)
GBA and SNES to the little screen. (3DS eshop -preferably with 3D effects added to make these different from existing wii u releases)
But nintendo wants to be weird. Small games that use up tiny memory with low res graphics should go to 3DS, while the larger ones which need more resources should go on the wii u where people are more likely to have TB worth of disk space to fill up. urgh nevermind they'll just do thier own thing..

Re: The Official Nintendo NX Thread
The GBA games on the Wii U make no sense. They look terrible. Such a bad choice having GBA games on the Wii U instead of 3DS. The whole VC concept needs re-imagining too.
Re: The Official Nintendo NX Thread
Day 1 for me too.

Re: The Official Nintendo NX Thread
I want to see a new Golden Sun. Hell, even if they remaster the original games for TV release, I'll be happy. Those games are the only reason I bought a GBA!
