Nothing supports this date. The release of Zelda and Nintendo publicly saying they would miss the Holiday window clearly conflict with this. Also, Europe has never been first for a Nintendo system so the odds of it being a world wide launch on that day are even more slim.
Why do you have to use the franchise? If the Metriod was still Metroid like without using the IP directly the user would A) Not get in trouble with Nintendo. B) Could sell it if they saw fit C) Possibly start a new franchise all together and fill the void that fan are clamoring for.
They do what they did OR, they show a bunch of games that are not ready and they lose all the announcement hype. It could have been much like the XBONE where it took years to reverse that and I don't think they can afford an poor launch back to back.
Simple. Don't buy it.
Ive tried many HM games. None have come close to HM64 and Friends of mineral town. Stardew looks to be a true improvement to tjose games.
False. The NX is a combination of console and handheld goals. If the NX fails it will be a big deal. Nintendo only lives now because it can create its own lineup. Another bad system and they will have the start either downsizing their production of games (which would increase the number of fans moving on) or focus on a single platform.
I doubt this is it. N would not be stupid enough to not have actual buttons...would they? Buttons salvaged the Wii from crappy motion controls and the WiiU from a screen with little use. I don't see a way around this design at all if it does not click with gamers.
For a game so close to release they should have shown more gameplay to sell it and not make excuses why we should like it.
Die? No. Many 10 year old + franchises just don't do a good job with balancing innovation and respecting the roots of the franchise.
Bad Examples:
RE 5 and 6 away from horror to more action
Zelda: Most games after majora don't break the OoT template
Any sports game: Same game, new year
Banjo Nuts and Bolts: No/little platforming = unhappy fans
God of War: GoW I: Slashy slashy kill kill. GoW II: Slashy slashy kill kill. GoW III: ...
Totally agree and was my first thought. RE4, which I have three versions of already, and two other meh titles that I can get used for under $10 total. Pass.
It seems that Capcom is relying of low cost redubs to keep afloat nowadays which is sad as they had many quality titles for over 2 decades.
Not sure about the author but Bloodborne alone was a system seller for me.
Way overdue. As a fan of TT games I'm sure having more tools and optimizations would make a even more compelling storytelling and flexibility. It seems dated and animations need to feel more natural to step up storytelling.
I thought they said they were going to not have the multiple releases?
And water is wet...
A sad and true, yet obvious article.
Bioshock Infinite did the same thing and that ended up being some of the highest quality DLC I've ever purchased (the later 2 parts in particular).
Pop-fiction and Retrospectives were prime.
I'm for it. That was an awesome series. I remember playing #4 at a friends house and begging my parents to take me to the now bankrupt "On Que" media store in my middle of nowhere town. Played it for months
Honorable mention to Viewtiful Joe and Okami as they were made by the same core team that broke off from CAPCOM before they made Platinum.
For me, after playing WoW for years, I refuse to play a game without a "endgame" or conclusion. Its too much of a time suck and their are plenty of quality alternatives.
Flaws aside, that game should be doing much better. I got it and think is a solid buy at $40 (post patch). Not million seller by any means but better than the rumored 56k.
