Of course, Japan gets the first patch update.

DesertFoxJr3509d ago

Well, the game is already out in Japan.

Serrafina3509d ago

Yup. Though, it's better now then later. At least, we get more information about what to expect in the future.

jeowulf3509d ago

Damn, wish I had a Wii U for this!

SteamPowered3508d ago

Whats holding you back? Mariokart. Marioworld 3D, Fantastic 101, Donkey Kong...So many good reasons to grab this console.

deafdani3508d ago

Fantastic 101? What is this blasphemy?

It's WONDERFUL, dammit! D:<

@deafdani

Gimme a break man, I commented before I even made it to the coffee pot this morning. ;)

Hendrickson3509d ago

Day one patch and a new game mode. Nice.

Gearfox3509d ago

Why do so many games nowadays get day one patches. Well at least this on adds a new game mode.

Nevers0ft3508d ago

I think it depends. A day one patch for a glaring bug that should have been picked up in testing would be sloppy and unprofessional. A day one patch that adds "desirable" features that they couldn't squeeze in before the game went gold due to time constraints? I'm totally OK with that.

Gearfox3508d ago

I have no problem with them either, the quicker an problem is fixed the better. I was just asking a genuine question.

Nevers0ft3508d ago (Edited 3508d ago )

@Gearfox
In answer to that question... Greed! With the complexity of AAA games nowadays thorough testing would take either many many months or assloads of extra staff. With the advent of patching last gen, publishers (I don't blame developers) decided that large-scale "launch" beta tests and post-release patching was acceptable rather than letting a launch deadline slip.

Sometimes the approach works but all too often AAA titles are broken for months after launch. Take BF4 as a prime example, I'm not even sure it's working correctly even now :/

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

LoveSpuds465d 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.

Starman69465d ago

Amazing what ya can do with a samurai sword lol 🤣

tehpees3465d ago

The honourable mention though.

TheSenorCheese465d ago

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

Vits464d 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.

darthv721152d ago

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.

PrimeVinister1151d 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.

jamesclark19911151d ago

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