MAn that megaman trailer looked great, cant wait to try it out. And I really hope they make Donkey Kong a badass again, I was so disappointed with how he played on the Wii.

After watching a few more gameplay videos of Mario 3D World....this game looks pretty fun after all. It might seem similar to the 3DS game but I'm sure this will have more types of gameplay.

Besides Mario 3D Land was based on the Galaxy gameplay anyway, just in bite-zied levels. 3D World however can make bigger levels using the same aspect.

Halo is the obvious exclusive, but Gears is the game that keeps me going. Bullet storm was pretty good., chrome hounds and few lesser known titles.

ANd as for why fps haven't died out is Competative multiplayer, no match is ever scripted and is different every time, unlike rpgs those haven't died out bc they keep coming up with new stories.

Stop calling third person shooters FPS games. Please. I've asked you so many times before.

I love Pikmin, but nobody knows what the franchise is outside of hardcore Nintendo fans. Its only two installments were on Gamecube which was Nintendo's least selling console, but also both games didn't sell that much either. Couple that with the fact that Pikmin 2 came out in 2004...and its been almost a decade since an entry in the franchise came out.

If it wasn't for Olimar's inclusion in Smash, it would have probably been forgotten.

Peanut · 06-13-2013, 08:31 AM

Yeah, there totally wasn't a ton of clammouring for years about it or anything. Nintendo fans weren't asking for a new Pikmin all through the lifespan of the Wii or anything.

I love the way you act like you're talking facts when you're just spewing complete nonsense. I don't even get the point you're trying to make. Nintendo doing something for its fans is a bad thing? It needs to have worldwide recognition to be valid? I don't get it.

Pikmin 3 only exists because its Miyamoto's own personal project. Pikmin 3 was originally a Wii game (it was originally confirmed way back in 2008 after all), and it literally took them 5 years of development time to finally get it out in 2013.

Look at the way Starfox and F-zero have been abandoned on home consoles, simply because their last entries didn't sell as well as they could of. Pikmin is not a huge seller, the only reason its getting a sequel is because its Miyamoto's favored concept.

The only reason why Donkey Kong is even getting a huge comeback is how well DKCR sold on Wii. Starfox, F-zero and Pikmin simply do not have the selling power that Mario, Zelda, Donkey Kong and Smash Bros do. Metroid is another franchise Nintendo only really continues for the hardcore Nintendo gamer, especially since Other M bombed and the Prime Trilogy didn't light up sales charts.

False. People have been asking for a third Pikmin game for years.

Peanut · 06-13-2013, 10:06 PM

Why do I get the feeling I'd feel bad about picking on you if this were the real world?

Shreddhead · 06-13-2013, 10:14 PM

Ugh. Just when I was beginning to agree with some of your opinions, you present them as facts.

People have been asking for a sequel to every franchise for years. People wanted an F-zero sequel since 2003....we're 10 years later and we still haven't gotten one.

If it doesn't bring in tons of money like Mario, Zelda, Donkey Kong, Pokemon, Kirby and Smash....it usually goes long gaps without sequels.

That's why Starfox, F-zero and Pikmin have gone nearly a decade without a sequel, and while other stuff like Kid Icarus/Punchout/Wario Land etc. had to be revived after a long period of death.

Oxymoron much?

*CyberCubed* · 06-13-2013, 11:55 PM

Had Miyamoto not favored Pikmin, I doubt they would have spent 5 years of development time on the title. It was originally announced back in 2008 as a Wii game.

*Ninjinister* · 06-14-2013, 09:07 AM

Do you even read what you type?

Why are you trying to be clever when this is the only reason Pikmin 3 is being made? It's actually been discussed on all the major Nintendo forums.

It doesn't take a genius to figure out why some Nintendo franchises go long gaps without a sequel while the money makers get new installments regularly.

愛 · 06-14-2013, 09:49 AM

So are we all saying we know how the video game industry works? Is that what's happening here?

I'm convinced that the answer to my question then, is "no".

This is a crappy thread! Tell me stuff about E3 or I'm leaving.

Microsoft made a fool of themselves, Sony kicked Microsoft when they were down, and Nintendo were a bunch of bros kinda. That's about it.
