Wii/Wii U

[BlueSuperSonic1]

With the exception of GameCube Controllers, meaning Classic Controllers are needed to play SNES and Nintendo 64 games.

Please be true then I can finally see the reoccurrence of my favorite video game character Conker.

He needs a sequel but if its just a new Mario Kart then its be interesting to see where go now.

 

[Wario Bros.]

Even if this Diddy Kong Racing sequel is true, that doesn't change the fact that Microsoft owns Conker (and Banjo which is a reason why those two didn't appear in the DS remake. This doesn't explain why Tiptup was still in the game since he appeared in Banjo-Kazooie & Banjo-Tooie which is now Microsoft property, however). The only characters Nintendo truly own from DKR is Diddy Kong and Krunch (plus Tiny Kong & Dixie Kong if you count the DS remake). And I'm pretty sure we'll get a brand new cast rather than everyone else returning.

But if this is real, I'll probably wouldn't care so much since I'm satisfied with the Mario Kart series and it would have a hard time competing with Sonic & All-Stars Racing Transformed, which I'm enjoying right now (but the rumor claiming Dillon from Dillon's Rolling Western will appear REALLY gets my attention).

What kinda news site uses Gamefaqs as their source?

It's not a news site, it's just a blog that happens to have the word "news" somewhere in it.

Anyway, last time I checked they post a lot of things about Sony there too, they should renamed it to MySonyNews or something.

OT: If that rumor is true then I will be happy, I'm feeling nostalgic already just to think of it.

 

[Wario Bros.]

Speaking of Monster Games, One of the co-founders of Monster Games has just passed away at the age of 38.

That's terrible.

This is the roster to accompany the Diddy Kong Racing rumor :

Spoiler

If true: Awesome, but it is a bit disappointing to not have the old cast.

 

[PsychoIncarnate]

I don't believe that roster. Looks really fake

 

[GwJ]

Really?

 

[PsychoIncarnate]

Also, I should mention that Tiny doesn't look like that anymore

Tiny looks like THIS now:

 

[Wario Bros.]

The characters chosen look 100% random with absolutely ZERO thoughts on why they would fit in this game (especially Kumatora being on that list). If that is real, than I'd rather wait 2014 for the next Mario Kart than get this game.

To be fair, it's just a mockup picture. It says that at the top.

 

[Pink Reaper]

I like that people are actually commenting as if any of this is true. Allow me to crack this bombshell out of the bag and let everyone know that NO IT'S NOT ****ING REAL, STOP TALKING ABOUT IT!

In other news, whatever happened with that supposed list of upcoming games that someone apparently found in some root file on the Wii U? Are people still covering that like it's actual news? Is it actual news?

A mockup pic by someone ignorant of current canon of Nintendo characters. How could someone know the future without knowing the present?

disappointed that cranky isn't playable in that rumor

I don't know about random... I could see some parallels between the new Nintendo characters and the original Diddy Kong Racing characters.

Diddy Kong
Dixie Kong = Conker (DS)
Tiny Kong = Banjo (DS)
Krunch

Dribble = Drumstick
Bunston = Pipsy
Mallo = Bumper
Mona = Tiny Kong (DS)
K.K. Slider = Conker
Kumatora = Dixie Kong (DS)
Dillon = Banjo
Meowth = Timber
Lololo = T.T.
Rick = Taj
Squirtle = Tiptup
King Dedede = Wizpig

disappointed that cranky isn't playable in that rumor

Well, someone has to be the shopkeeper.

 

[PsychoIncarnate]

who equals krunch, I just gotta know!

Like most things it's total bs.

Or maybe not.

 

[Wario Bros.]

That "Miiverse hack" thing lost a lot of credibility for me when it said big games will be out/announced for the Wii U on December 10, 2012 (and nothing happened on that day), so I'm calling BS on that and this Diddy Kong Racing thing.

At least the hack was an actual thing(i.e it was really a list that was there) and was properly debunked.

In other news, did you guys hear about Pokemon Catch & Race? Cant wait to get some good old arcade fashion racing on with Pikachu and friends!

 

[M@v]

Any madden 13 players here?

 

[Jimnymebob]

I have a question.
Can you transfer data from 2 Wii consoles onto a single Wii U, or just a single Wii?
All that's on my 2nd Wii is Final Fantasy VI and Ghosts n' Goblins, whereas my 1st Wii has a bunch of saves, VC and WiiWare titles. I'm not all that bothered about not being able to get FFVI and Gn'G over, but it'd be convenient XD.

 

[ndayday]

I'm not sure if anyone here has played ZombiU but dfasnkffdsafasuh I managed to stay alive all the way to Tower of London and then I died in the stupidest manner possible. I had a score of 10,000 and most my guns leveled up too.

I don't rage quit often but **** man.

 

[GwJ]

I actually am taking a long break from the game. I think it's an amazing game, but I'm a totally scaredy cat when it comes to horror games. I can only take so much stress in a game before I've got to take a break lol, so I'll finish it later. Also, I get kinda salty when I die because I hate not using the cricket bat because the cricket bat is awesome, but it gets me killed with mobs.

 

[ndayday]

I know right, I have to pause it on the mobs because I shake so much from fear/anxiousness. I'm a baby.

[Pink Reaper]

Most of what I've heard for pandora's tower is that it's just ok. Not great, not bad, just serviceable. Having literally just finished Xenoblade Chronicles i can fully state that serviceable is not enough to make me care because OMG XENOBLADE2GOOD

Either Nintendo screwed up or they're marketing geniuses.

Xseed games are Xseed games.

 

[Jimnymebob]

New Yoshi game announced <3.

 

[ndayday]

Monolith Soft's trailer was cooler imo

[Rutger]

Shin Megami Tensei X Fire Emblem.


Gonna be the best Wii U game ever.

 

[GunmasterLombardi]

The last thing Yoshi needed was his own Epic Yarn game.

I'm gonna go hang out with Sly Cooper.

Looks like a spiritual successor to Xenoblade.... Oh man. Oooooh man... I must have this. Now I have to get a WiiU.

I'm really impressed by what they showed today. I'm not sure about the look of the Wind Waker remake, but I'll hold my judgement until I see HD videos of it in motion.

Looks like E3 will be huge for Nintendo.

 

[Hot_ArmS]

What was today?

 

[Ecks]

A Nintendo Direct about the WiiU.

Everything needs its own epic yarn.

I'm kinda disappointed about the wind waker remake. I mean I love WW but Majora's Mask.......

In other news, Douglas J. Falcon, still jobless.

 

[Minato]

I'm kinda disappointed about the wind waker remake. I mean I love WW but Majora's Mask.......

Maybe it's because Majora's Mask was already perfect and didn't need one.

Spoiler

Still want a MM remake/upgrade one day

 

[wezai]

Holy ****, I want that Yoshi game so bad! I'm a bit disappointed that it's not a Yoshi's Island HD version for the Wii U, but that kind of style is still cool IMO. I wanna play it like, NOW! I'm happy about that announcement.

 

[The Nameless Wanderer]

Guy who will make the new Xenoblade's soundtrack also made the Gundam Unicorn OST.

Hyped beyond belief.

 

[theeboredone]

Pretty cool Direct, though games like Smash, Mario, and Kart were expected sooner or later. The other games are what have me intrigued.
