So both tragic and happy?
It really depends on how you look at it all.
Personally, I think they're both pretty tragic games in the end.
The two are entirely unrelated games, though, right? Apart from the similar titles?
They're unrelated, yes.
Though they share some similar themes.
Xenosaga's story basically requires you to read an old German set of philosophy books for you to understand it.
The OP has a real Zelda in the list, not this dynasty warriors action based spin off
It is the last in the list
Well, we'll get a trailer at E3. Dunno about a release date.

The last three games listed are all announced but without a confirmed 2014 date (hence "TBA" on the left of the images).

My wife has been talking about getting a Wii U. Two new Mario games to play are really tempting.
I got confused because of the thread title that says WiiU games 2014 and not WiiU games coming in general
BTW, is the E3 reveal confirmed ?
Only buy it if you like Nintendos own games cause you wont see any 3rd party titles for much longer.
Yet. There isn't any footage that specifically focuses on plot yet. But we have been given subtle glimpses in the second teaser.
This will come in due time. We have the teasers to tide us over until the game is ready to be fully unveiled.
This isn't a proper question, and so I can't give you a proper answer. What you should be asking yourself is what makes X an MMO.
They're such good Mario games. Totally worth it for those and the other 1st party games out.
Nice, now that is some huge news right there
Cant wait
In the meantime, you can take this opportunity to play every Zelda you haven't already played.

They're great games. And there are plenty of other excellent titles available now as well, far more than I have had time to play. I wouldn't expect much major third party support going forward, mostly Nintendo games + indies + the slow trickle of Virtual Console titles. But it's a great, versatile console and I've put more time into it than any other since I was a kid.

There is a cool library already and 2014 is looking great! Why not.

That would only be the old 2D ones, i plan to play the two i have bought on 3DS after i finish LBW a 3rd time
You shouldn't be looking at this objectively at all if you are trying to discuss it, what you find irrational thoughts sound very rational to another person and while the director being known for what he is makes for a counter point, how much of one depends on how much you think that's actually worth.
I mentioned online is all but confirmed exactly because it's being used as a "springboard" being where the fear comes from, people are understandably worried about this "new feature" is going to be focused on and perhaps "ruin" the single player portion if they take design choices to accommodate both. You say exactly like Xenoblade but there being online at all changes that, some focus will have to be put into it.
Like for example you have WKC Single player where while you can create your own character, it's just "there" for the single player for the most part but you still have your "traditional" JRPG party with character development and story with cutscenes and all that jazz, then you have the online mode which is doing random quests with your created avatar with others. Meanwhile you have PSO where you create your own character but there is only a small main story that you will either tackle offline alone or with people online but the "sidequests" (both single player and online only ones) being the provider of the bulk of the game's story.
Then there is PSU V1 that in singleplayer you are a premade character with his own story, there are characters, cutscenes and "party members" but as the game was designed as an online one as top priority there is no customization or any sort of control for those "party members" as well as the story going through the quest system obviously designed for online parties. There are other examples but you can see the differences, what's X going to do? That's what I see people are understandably worried about.
Reasonable depends you who ask, I find it unreasonable to think that it's impossible to believe that X may have a big focus on online to get to the point of getting angry when people think otherwise. Yet I find it very reasonable to currently think it quite obviously will have an offline mode of some sort.
The usual Just Dance, Skylanders, CoD, one of the two Assassin's creeds games this year, etc...

The second post contains future titles or known titles without a date + recommendations (which I'll update by the way ^^), just like the old thread. I think people also like to know what's beyond this year or which game could probably make it this year.
You can see the TBA-tag left to them.
And X is almost 4 years in development, I'm quite sure that it's going to realese this year.
The french twitter pic confirms this again and it really looks like the order of release.The second post contains future titles or known titles without a date + recommendations (which I'll update by the way ^^), just like the old thread.

Probably a Disney Infinity game along with Skylanders? I think it sold ok on Wii U, plus they had the whole Walmart campaign w/ the Wii U and Disney Infinity.

Nice! So you've already played Minish Cap and both Oracle games, then. Very nice!
I think the Nintendo of France reads this thread and was tired of the no way X or Smash or what ever is coming out this year stuff lol, so they debunked all that
IdeaMan saw the thread and sent a message to Nintendo. It's the only explanation.
He's a French journalist that leaked quite a bit on the WiiU and XBox One before launch.
The Lego Movie Videogame as well.
I assure you, precedence holds far more weight than people's irrationality and the resulting arguments they make based on almost nothing because of it. Substantial plot should be expected in a Xeno game, as much as one expects tight platforming in Mario, puzzles and dungeons in Zelda, a litany of powerups in Metroid, and so forth. Anyways, this part of the debate is pointless, because we know, without a shadow of a doubt, that there's going to be a meaty story in the game.
...Have you played Xenoblade, or Soma Bringer, for that matter? The above portion of your response strongly implies that you haven't. X is using Xenoblade as a base template in a lot of ways. From its battle system, to its UI, to the way its environments are crafted, to its collectibles, and by the looks of things, its quest system as well. If you had played Xenoblade, then you'd realize that you wouldn't have to touch a single hair on X's head to accommodate online multiplayer, and there would be no need to put a "focus" on it. The kind of quests the game had - the kind where you had to kill X number of certain animals, or retrieve Y number of whatever collectible, and so on - already lent itself well to a multiplayer experience. And those same quests will almost certainly be returning in X, except this time players will be able to join your game and take control of the characters that would normally be manned by an AI via an online connection. In fact, they've already made a game following that exact template; it's called Soma Bringer, and its co-op experience is the exact same as the single-player one. There is no avatar character, no character customization (besides equipment, jobs, and, optionally, colors), and no "multiplayer focus/content".
There is nothing, I repeat, nothing in those teasers that implies X follows any of the templates you've brought up, or any other besides the one they've already created themselves. Those who believe otherwise are severely misinformed and/or actively look for something to fear or be disappointed in. Simple as that.
Angry? I hope you aren't inferring that is my disposition regarding all of this. The game has enough strikes against it, and it doesn't need a bunch of people who have no clue what they're talking about scaring away prospective players with the misinformation they propagate. It's just annoying to encounter in every discussion pertaining to X. :/
Why has he stopped posting btw?
Dunno. He still browses the site, though. He was just on today.

Not actually that important
I don't think he *really* leaked anything worthy tho. Besides obvious guesses I mean, iirc. Definitely a teaser, dunno about leaker.

Okay, if we're counting Japan-only ones.

Tantalus Media mystery port
Capcom could have a game coming based on comments from them
Japanese 3rd party Mystery Game made exclusive to Wii U
Could the first and last be the same game? I don't think so.
Now from Nintendo I at least expect 3 or 4 unannounced games in 2014.

Only one more week left of waiting I think.

Tantalus said their game wont be M rated so the rumored Japanese game cant be it since its suppose to be bloody
Was there any merit to that rumor by the way?

Depends on what you mean.
Apparently, Nintendo News talked directly with Joss Ellis at Tantalus about it.

I meant the other one, the supposedly mature one that most of the people in the thread assumed was Devil's Third.
