Why call the next installment of a franchise on their latest console a “treatment?”

Lightning Mr Bubbles2371d ago

True, I'd say a good portion of these are pretty much guaranteed to happen. Luigi's Manson I'm not so sure about. Donkey Kong possibly, but DK Country series was like way back in the SNES Days, I loved it but I haven't played a good DK game since then. That's a long time ago. Excite and Super Princess Peach or whatever are pretty doubtful I think.

Smokingunz2371d ago

Donkey kong country was on the 3ds and the wii u genius smh. Also luigis mansion 3 was announced for the switch before it even came out. U are so out of tune dude its not even funny

@Smokingunz

You're right about Donkey Kong Country, There's DK Country Returns for Wii/3DS and Tropical Freeze for WiiU/3DS. I wasn't into Nintendo at all during the whole Wii era, so I didn't realize the series had such current installments.

Either way, they don't look nearly as good as the ones for SNES. The SNES Donkey Kong Country games had amazing realistic graphics for that time. These new installments look like C level games. They should really step it up and give Donkey Kong Country AAA level treatment for the Switch if they want to revive it.

Lightning Mr Bubbles: trust me, Tropical Freeze (which is available only on Wii U, not 3DS, btw) has a superb art direction. It looks fantastic.

F-zero. None of these clones like fast RMX are gunna cut it for me.

Moonman2371d ago

I agree, the clones lack personality. A sequel to F-Zero GX equipped with another story mode would be awesome. Captain Falcon needs more story. And he with the series, could become more popular if Nintendo allows it.

EddieNX 2371d ago

GX was the last futuristic racer I really cared about and the it was perfect! It had the charm, the cut scenes, the customization and quality you expect.

Fast RMX is good but that's about it. It isn't epic F-zero level at all!

I dont see f zero coming back, the last game was terrible. Nintendo handed thr developemnt to seag and thry screwed it up. The last good f zero gsme i played was on the n64, the gsmecube version was garbage. If nintendo do it thrmselves mabye.

I love Super Mario Maker. The next game needs even more customization. Every single item, enemy, boss and level backgrounds need to show up. But Mario 64 Maker is the dream. Lol

Just make a goddamn pokemon game

The Little Things: In-Game Holidays

FGE - Sometimes when you’re playing a video game that you really enjoy, it’s not just the cutting-edge graphics or even the well-written story that make you happy. Sometimes it’s the little things. That’s what I would like to dedicate this series of editorials to, the smaller things in games that aid to, ever so slightly, enrich my experience and immersion. The subject of today’s The Little Things is a mechanic that is most prevalent on MMORPGs, but also features in many other games of varying genres; in-game holidays.

So happy they decided to make Animal Crossing amiibos AND the amiibo cards. I do hope they announce a full fledged Animal Crossing game for the Wiiu though.

COGconnected3114d ago

35 bucks for a 3 pack seems expensive! Have amiibos gone up in price?

LAWSON723113d ago

No I believe the retro and splatoon pack was $35. Other than the $16 for the yarn yoshi, they are still $13 each

Paulhammer3114d ago

I already owe Tom Nook my soul... WHAT ELSE DO YOU WANT?!

Cdn_Seahawks_Fan3113d ago

Man, these amiibo figs just keep coming, and people keep buying. I tried to keep up to this whole collecting them thing, but just couldn't do it. When will the madness stop.
