Super Smash Bros 4 (Wii U/3DS) Topic

[Pacack]

Also, anyone else really hyped for Zelda U? What little we've heard sounds really promising. And after ALBW, I have high hopes.

Where's the source for this DS Virtual Console?
Doesn't say on the live blog I'm on.

Japanese.

 

[Swamp Sensei]

Oh for the love of...

THERE IS NO DS VC.

Wario Bros misinterpreted the statements made...

http://www.nintendo.co.jp/ir/library/events/140130/02.html I don't know Japanese but I see a DS Brain Age on a Game Pad screen.

Huh.

Hold on, gonna put some salt on my words before I eat them.

May be an eshop title though.

 

[Xhampi]

I'm more waiting Gamecube games on the Wii U than the DS games =/

[Pacack]

"Think franchises can be upgraded in more stable manner working with external developers"

Wonder what this means...

Oh for the love of...

THERE IS NO DS VC.

Wario Bros misinterpreted the statements made...

Nope. Look at the link.

 

[Starcutter]

When did they say that?...
...LINK?!

.....they never said anything about PMD specifically. man I WISH.

.....they'll get around to it eventually, right?




....guys?

But we haven't even gotten a GBA or GC Virtual Console yet. Heck the Wii U still doesn't have 64 titles on it's Virtual Console yet.

Forgive me if I am wrong, but didn't he say he wasn't resigning already? Or is this the same interview?

Could be referencing that interview.

It is best to wait for a full official translation rather than internet users translating it which is prone to errors.

任天堂、社長報酬を５カ月間半減　３期連続赤字で

任天堂は２９日、岩田聡社長の報酬を５カ月間半減させると発表した。ゲーム機の販売不振が響き、２０１４年３月期の営業損益が３５０億円の赤字になって３ 期連続 赤字が見込まれるため。ほかの取締役９人の報酬も２～３割減らす。記者会見で岩田社長は「損失を重くみてけじめをつけた」と述べた。

任天堂は１１年８月にも、通期業績が大きく落ち込む見通しになったため社長報酬を半減。昨年７月に３割減に戻したばかりだった。今回の報酬減は２～６月の予定 だが、その後は６月の株主総会後に業績をみて決めるという。

岩田社長は「どのように任天堂を立て直すかしか考えていない」として辞任は否定。「子どもたちへのアプローチが十分ではなかった」と述べ、３０日に東京で開く 経営方針説明会で中長期の立て直し策を示すとしている。

いまの任天堂ゲーム機の苦戦は、年間の半分の商いがある年末商戦を終えた１３年４～１２月期決算でも明らかだ。新型据え置き型「Ｗｉｉ　Ｕ」の４～１２ 月の世 界販売は２４１万台。発売時期の一昨年１０～１２月に売った３０６万台にも届かなかった。携帯型「ニンテンドー３ＤＳ」も、米国で廉価版「２ＤＳ」を投入 して巻 き返しを図ったが、全体では前年の１２７１万台に届かなかった。

４～１２月期の売上高は４９９１億円で前年同期より８・１％減。全世界で前年を下回った。営業損益は１５億円の赤字で、前年より赤字幅は縮小したが、円安によ って利益が８０億円膨らんだことに救われたに過ぎない。（神沢和敬）

Is basically saying that that Iwata's salary will be cut by half and 9 others cut by 30% starting on the 29th (yesterday). This is due to the slow sales of the Wii U which did not meet expectations. It's expected that the deficit will continue past March 2014 (being in the red is 35 billion yen). Iwata said "Nintendo sees this deficit and is making the necessary adjustments". In addition, since the deficit will increase, they will cut Iwata's salary by half again in August 11th which will be discussed on June 2nd. Nintendo's achievements will be reviewed at the shareholders and decisions will be made afterward. Iwata denies resignation as Nintendo is being re-organized and says "the approach towards children was not enough (satisfactory)". and will open in Tokyo on the 30th. It is assumed that a corporate strategy meeting shows a medium-to-long term reorganization measure.

I am stumped. Exactly what will open in Tokyo on the 30th. The shareholders meeting? The corporate strategy meeting? Anyways, that is the farthest I got and it is an extremely rough translation. I think it's best to just wait for an official translation.


新型据え置き型「Ｗｉｉ　Ｕ」の４～１２ 月の世 界販売は２４１万台。

This is what I got from a fairly reliable translator I use for when I am stumped

"World in 4? December of a new style non-portable type "Wii U" .Boundary sale is 2,410,000 sets."

The World in 4 means "between April and December of the Gregorian (World) Calender)."

Not sure if this alluding to a new style of Wii U...

My head hurts...

 

[Starphoenix]

What am I looking at? What is non-wearable? Implants? Nanomachines?

...I can't believe this...
...What about the 3DS owners! Huh?!

There. That should be better.

"Iwata's admits WiiU had vacuum last year"

um, I think that's probably a mistranslation

Likely, I'm seeing a lot of different translations from just that one text right now.

 

[Kaye Cruiser]

What about us?

You do remember that we can already play DS games on the 3DS, right?

 

[Reznor]

"Iwata's admits WiiU had vacuum last year"

um, I think that's probably a mistranslation

Luigi's Mansion Dark Moon came out last year
ya not the Wii U but still

 

[Wario Bros.]

Pretty cool

 

[N3ON]

DS VC is great and all, but wth happened to getting games from the 64, GBA, GC, and all those other systems already available on the Wii's VC?

...I'd rather get some actual games from systems that have been promised than promises of more systems.
I guess GC was never technically confirmed though.

 

[Swamp Sensei]

On the 3DS.

Ya friggin smartass. ¦D

Oh my god, imagine playing Sonic Rush using the Gamepad...

"Where's Sonic? OH ****! HE WAS ON THE GAMEPA- ****, I died."

 

[Substitution]

What about us?

...Well...
...I like the idea of downloading DS games...

 

[BluePikmin11]

I demand my Gamecube Virtual Console now.

 

[Substitution]

I demand my Gamecube Virtual Console now.

...We're still waiting for GBA games...

 

[Reznor]

Oh my god, imagine playing Sonic Rush using the Gamepad...

"Where's Sonic? OH ****! HE WAS ON THE GAMEPA- ****, I died."

I have always wanted to try that game mostly because of the sick soundtrack

 

[Swamp Sensei]

So....

Is Nintendo gonna do brain chips or something?

Is it gonna be the new robot overlord?

If Japan had that kind of technology they would have used it for hentai by now
so no

 

[Kaye Cruiser]

...Well...
...I like the idea of downloading DS games...

And then what will happen? Easy.

We'll get ANOTHER alternate model of the 3DS that no longer has technology built in for DS games to work with it because they can be downloaded to it. THEN, we'll get a stupid 2DS version of THAT one.

Spoiler

Yes people, I'm just joking. Don't start getting into a hissy fit. ¦D

 

[Starphoenix]

What's going on?

 

[BluePikmin11]

Addressing criticism of the lack of software titles available for the Wii U, Nintendo’s top game creator Mr. Miyamoto says there was a big technological leap from Wii to Wii U. “Not that we’re trying to give excuses,” he said. He says there’s been an internal improvement in conditions for creating new titles.

You know Nintendo, they're doing their best to create quality titles.

So....

Is Nintendo gonna do brain chips or something?

Is it gonna be the new robot overlord?

Welp, I knew this would happen...
Get your tinfoil hats everyone!

"World of sales from April to December of new stationary "Wii U" is 2.41 million units."
I got this through Google Translate.
But, I'm assuming it's the sales prediction. Nothing more...

 

[Pacack]

I still think that he meant "Focusing on children is not working" rather than "We weren't doing enough advertising to children".

 

[PadWarrior]

Well with Mario Kart 8 not being out till May Smash Bros is probably not till the holidays. I can't believe after DK there's a drought of !p games. Ugh.

 

[Bowserlick]

They are going to have to do DLC for Smash for extra profit.
