A junior committing account suicide? At least something interesting happened today.

Anyway, I guess Geoff's Twitter account hasn't been hacked and his tweet about the Reggie interview is legit. Awesome.

And he posted a picture with a Giraffe holding a Wii.

I'm so confused.
 
I figured out what Geoff is going for. Nintendo Safari. You collect nfc animals from a store near you, ans build up your safari. With tons of game pad games included!
 
Super Mario Safari believe.

What makes more sense is Nintendo made that Fruit meme, Giraffes like fruit...Interesting.

Remember this...

I'd argue that you're not a true gamer unless you play on Nintendo systems.

And you'd easily win that argument. If you are a true and hardcore gamer, you play a lot on Nintendo systems. Funny how the most broad and actually casual gaming is being offered on the "true hardcore gamer" systems. I've been saying for a while that this whole hardcore vs casual nonsense has been completely misinterpreted over the years.

People who go watch Transformers and Harry Potter in theaters aren't considered hardcore movie buffs either. ;)

I hope we see one of Nintendo's extreme sport IP's (Excitebike, Waverace, 1080). They could really serve as a graphical showcase for Wii U.

might I remind you of my lovely little creation?


GET HYPE!
 
I think he is saying that you wouldn't be a true gamer if you don't play on Nintendo consoles in addition to other platforms.
Yep. It's all about the games after all - the platforms themselves are pretty much meaningless, superfluous stuff like online, controller ergonomics or performance aside.
 
The most interesting stuff always happens while I'm at work, wtf.

Some people STILL aren't over Bayonetta 2 being Wii U exclusive?
 
Oh god daripad and Azure J broke the Internet.

Edit: Maybe it was my phone. Their posts showed up 3 times each.
 
Basically my suspicion as well. Nintendo seems to have just thrown shit in the WiiU with no immediate plan on how to make use of it. The NFC for example should've been used from day 1. No more idiotic cards to rub off. Just hold it to your gamepad, bam, funds added.

A NFC collection RPG with some actual effort in it could also go a long way.
Hell, NFC should be in the next Smash Bros. I would definitely get some Samus Aran figurines and my GF would go bonkers for Link, Zelda or Midna.


I agree, but that's really not something that I would get excited over. It's like buying a car and getting excited about it coming with four tires.

I hope they use NFC for Smash Bros. and Pokémon figurines. It's like infinite money. Don't they sell Pokémon figurines in Japan for Pokémon Rumble?
 
Not everyone has the money for that :'(

Hell, I haven't bought anything since Luigi. I'm starving for new games, but can't pay for that. :'(

Hell, I don't have the money for it, but I'll still follow anything interesting without thinking about where they "fit". Platform wars are fucking lame.
 
dat post history.
His entire post history is bitching about Nintendo except for one where he dick-waves about PC gaming and one where he calls Mario a good series.

Um, ok

This. I have all three consoles this gen (Wii, PS3, 360) but I'm not buying that piece of DRM-infested crap Microsoft is putting out.

I'll probably get a PS4 though

They only added it in at the beginning of last year because Iwata mentioned it in an investor briefing.

That said, there's already an NFC Pokémon game out.

I just want the next 3D mario to be pure platforming. Forget about the open world shit people want please.

Pure platforming? Play NSMBU.

Me too. I even had a ps3 for a while, but I didn't like it much because of DLC and cut content everywhere. Also most games weren't really polished and lacked some little details here and there. The thing I really enjoyed there was online multiplayer. It aas fantastic on some games and very addicting.
 
May I quote wsippels tag here?
You could, but that wouldn't really prove anything. I have nothing against games on smart devices (I play those as well), I simply have a problem with the insane signal-to-noise ratio and question it's viability as a platform for businesses because of how unpredictable and overcrowded it is.

I like that I made that post with the double standard of knowing that I'll never support the XB1 while it pushes those anti-consumer aspects of itself. It's as if I totally wrote off the One into a non-entry. Weird.

I'm thinking Wii U/PS4/3DS and a decent laptop/PC is enough gaming for me for the upcoming generation.
