NANI?!?!

I've got to find one that has it! I GOTTA!

Is there a list somewhere out there?

contradictory3537d ago (Edited 3537d ago )

where be downloadable demo Nintendo?

Realplaya3537d ago

This is better than a demo. Go to best buy try it like it and in the future pick it up. But from best buy and Nintendo's perspective it gets you to buy other products while at the store.

Also how can you convince potential new Wii U owners to buy the system without having the game on display so they can know what their getting.

So this time around I am with Nintendo and best buy this is a sign of them working together and I like it.

contradictory3537d ago

i don't live in the US and don't have best buys here..

also, there's not really any harm in having the demo in eshop AND displayed at shops now is there?

game demos are advertisement
and providing them helps your sales overall..

if there's a playable demo
then i really don't see any reason whatsoever
not to distribute it

well, unless you're Silver Dollar Games on XBLIG
because you're pretty much getting the experience from the demos alone

deafdani3537d ago

Yeah, because having both (Best Buy demo and downloadable demo) is TOTALLY impossible!

>_>

Nioh games definitely up there at the top alongside Ninja Gaiden BLK.

LoveSpuds471d ago

There is a decent fan base for the Nioh games, but still think they are criminally overlooked and under appreciated.

I just bought the PS5 collection to replay them again with all their DLC, a sweet collection for my games shelf for sure.

Yea, those gardens haven't been plowed in over 10 years now though. Imagine if they cultivated it, let it grow again.

Amazing what ya can do with a samurai sword lol 🤣

tehpees3471d ago

The honourable mention though.

TheSenorCheese471d ago

originally it wasn't going to be included because of their take on Samus' character. But the gameplay's actually not bad.

Vits471d ago

Honestly, I don't know if we can even blame them for that take. Nintendo's Sakamoto was credited as the writer and from what we learned later with the Retro Studios interviews for the Prime series, Nintendo apparently never saw Samus as this stoic badass that most of the west imagined her as. Going as far as describing her as "motherly".

Ninja Gaiden was dope but I don't really care for alot of their games.

The cool thing about the PS2 chainsaw display was that there was a (kind-of) hidden compartment at the back which was the exact size to hold the PS2 steelbook.

I have that controller but sadly I lost the main cord. And its not something that was anything close to being standard or easy to find.

PrimeVinister1158d ago

One of my friends had it back in the day and I had wondered alout why it had a detachable cord that you could lose.

My friend then said it was so they could manufacture the one unit and then fire its appropriate cord in the appropriate box.

But then we realised each version has a different socket on the unit itself - so there was zero point in it except for collectors to lose the cable.

You know the designers are on r/, gamecollecting, laughing away.

jamesclark19911157d ago

I kept my cord in the "hidden" little brown drawer on the base of the unit.
