And serious question: Do any of you guys think Nintendo is actively working with third parties for exclusives and is hiding some of their games at this time? Just wondering what you guys thought...

Iwata has pretty much said as much, highlighting Fire Emblem X Megaten as just the beginning.

expecting a nintendo direct this week

Me too, at least for Japan for a final G&W showcase before release, details of the April update, Pokemon Rumble U details, and stuff on Tomodachi Collection for 3DS at the very least.

rumble will almost certainly get its own mini direct but an appearence in regular direct is likely too

expecting a nintendo direct this week

for the love of fuck nintendo, announce some god damn release dates

And when you do, be sure to have shipping delays so the game isn't available on release date except E-Sho-OH WAIT!

 

[60_gig_PS3]

I personally don't need indie games on my Nintendo consoles. I just need solid release dates for some of their games. I can get a Wii U for cheap but I'm still hesitating seeing as the only games I want are New Super Mario Bros. U and Monster Hunter 3: Ultimate.

Maybe indie isnt the right word. They need some first party downloadables like the art style series. Speaking of art how about art academy? These are the kind of games should be filling the gaps.

Animal Crossing for Wii U? When did that happen?

Ok ok I was really wrong my bad ignore everything I ever say.

 

[Hero of Legend]

Yea Animal Crossng New Leaf for the Wii U.
They had a little promotional stage at the gaming expo at sxsw in Austin two weekends ago.

Uh huh...

 

[fernoca]

Yea Animal Crossng New Leaf(that's what some speculate the title will be) for the Wii U.
They had a little promotional stage at the gaming expo at sxsw in Austin two weekends ago. No release date or anything but its real and looks promising.

How do you mix up a 3DS game for a Wii U game?

 

[Shaanyboi]

They don't know when they'll be done.

Anyone expect a June release for Pikmkin 3?

And serious question: Do any of you guys think Nintendo is actively working with third parties for exclusives and is hiding some of their games at this time? Just wondering what you guys thought...

I don't doubt they're trying. It's just a matter of if third parties are realistically giving this any serious thought. There are those recent Emily Rogers rumours that Nintendo is trying to offer better incentives to developers shopping their games to publishers so.... I dunno.

 

[Weng]

Gamersglobal-Podcast.
They said that one editor (Heinrich Lenhardt) has seen Deus Ex for Wii U yesterday on an event and that Sqaure Enix made a lot of changes in the game. On Wednesday they will post the article.

Thank you very much.

Wonderful 101 is now under "Coming Soon" in the Nintendo eShop.

What!? Aww man

 

[ido]

Does anybody think we'll get any other info on X before E3?

 

[StreetsAhead]

Kamiya seems to be posting less/posting about being busy a bit lately.

Probably not.

Tyrone Rodriguez, the head guy at Nicalis hinted we should hear something at GDC about Nintendo's future developer plans. So I guess we'll find out what's going on very soon.

Hope they have something with substance to show at GDC. Like.....third party support. How big of a presence are they supposed to have this year? No keynote speeches by Iwata or nbyrhing, right?

 

[Keslord]

I don't know if this has been posted yet, but from Amazon:

http://www.amazon.fr/dp/B009FBMM3I/

Dragon Quest X, complete with a PEGI 12 rating. Interesting.

From what I know they don't have any confirmed keynote speeches by Iwata but Nintendo has done crazy stuff before, I'm not 100% sure if this is true but didn't Reggie go to GDC 2011 and go on Sony's booth and showed off the 3DS? Or something like that.

......Is this a thread yet?

Seems thread worthy, someone should make a thread.

 

[Keslord]

Interesting. And new.

This is probably the title Square is showing off at PAX along with DE:HRC

Whats new? Haven't we known for quite some time now (like since the game was announced) that Dragon Quest X also will be out for Wii U also?

In Japan. There has been no localization announcements or even hints as far as we know

Are they showing two games?

The Amazon page. That's new.

 

[campfireweekend]

Someone make a new thread!

 

[Keslord]

Are they showing two games?

Square is showing one title for Wii U. Straight Right, who are presumably porting DE:HRC, are also showing their title

 

[schuelma]

I don't think that is correct.

 

[Tenki]

Square is showing one title for Wii U. Straight Right, who are presumably porting DE:HRC, are also showing their title

But isn't it the same game? I mean, Deus Ex is also a Square game.

 

[Keslord]

I don't think that is correct.

Straight Right is going to be at PAX, IIRC. They also said they'd show their title soon enough.

But isn't it the same game? I mean, Deus Ex is also a Square game.

I guess, but it also wouldn't be really "new". We'll see at PAX

TC, instead of deleting games that have released, maybe you could keep them up in the OP, if need be in miniature form or just by title, but with a link to the corresponding game's review thread or something? Just a thought.

That's what I planned.

I also wanted to add older games like Zombi U, Batman, Mario, etc. as recommendation.

Yea straight right is working on an original ip for Wii U, but when did they say they will show it off at pax?

This was announced yesterday by 505 Games, regarding Ashes Cricket 2013 developed by Trickstar Games:

SUMMON THE PRIDE OF A NATION THIS SUMMER WITH ASHES CRICKET 2013

Live the action on all formats from 21 June 2013

This summer, 505 games puts you in control of the ultimate rivalry in Test cricket with ASHES CRICKET 2013. To be released for the start of the 2013 Investec Ashes Series, ASHES CRICKET 2013 offers unique and realistic features for cricket fans and gamers alike.

Whether playing on X360, PS3, Wii U or PC, dynamic game play adds variety to each match. Players will have to adapt to varying and altering pitches; whether it’s a green seaming wicket or deteriorating fifth day pitch susceptible to spin and bounce. Weather forecasts will also change, altering the course of the match; overcast conditions will be more conducive to swing, while sunny days are a batsman’s paradise.

Source: Games Press

IGN also has an article on it, with a cover that's not colour corrected: http://www.ign.com/articles/2013/03/20/first-details-for-ashes-cricket-2013-revealed

An RGB cover and supporting logo should be available at 505 Game's press site, but I haven't got an account there: http://505-games.co.uk/

Games Press only had the logo in JPG format (I saved it in PNG to prevent further compression):

I figured it was more sensible to post this here instead of starting a new thread. It's not very interesting, but a new game for the Wii U library still.

 

[andthebeatgoeson]

Holy crap, between Monster Hunter and Need for Speed, I'll be set. Gonna get a backlog on the Wii U pretty soon.

 

[Pachimari]

Alright, if we get confirmation of Dragon Quest X coming out here in the West, then that along with Monster Hunter 3: Ultimate and New Super Mario Bros. will have sealed it for me. And when I buy, Pikmin 3 and The Wonderful 101 will probably also be available.

 

[Mihael Mello Keehl]

I dont know when will most likely see a Wii U direct again but with W101 coming to PAX is it more likely we will get one before attendees and the gaming press ask for a release date this coming friday? With the coming soon thing I hope we get a release date through this.

 

[ozfunghi]

Looks like i'll be getting Lego next week (EU) after all. I was thinking of waiting a few months, maybe pick it up after a price drop, but i decided to return or sell my copy of NFS as soon as possible, hopefully tomorrow (glad i didn't download). Next game i'm interested in is more than a month away Deus Ex.

 

[GotEmRunnin]

Lego City is great.

 

[Meelow]

New Watch Dogs gameplay.
