Luigi's Mansion Dark Moon for Wii U? wtf? [Up: Now at Best Buys]
- Thread starter Madao
- Start date
How did you know?
The funny thing is, wasn't that one actually confirmed as a F2P project in the making?
Yeah it was. Their first F2P. No platform announced though.

Remember that Kid Icarus Uprising Wii U listing?
Why couldn't that have been true? ;_;

Because the sinking ship theme matches the Wii U so well, obviously.

Weyo!
Aww man. I was hoping for NeoGAF Mod Confirms F2P MMO Steel Diver Wii U.
It's the transition
If there's some true in this I think a Wii U port of GCN Luigi game makes more sense.
With the quaterly results stuff next week and this revived rumour, plus Eatchildren clear confirmation of Bayonnetta Ultimate Hardcore Definitive Total Complete Über Edition coming digital on Wii U, a NinDirect is very likely.

NeoGAF Mod Confirms Resident Evil 5 is coming to 360.
Although personally I was thinking it was either Bayonetta or Xenoblade HD.

So, thinking about, I suppose it wouldn't be unusual for this to be an error.
Luigi's Mansion: Dark Moon Wii U has a UPC number of 045496680145, and the model code CTRNAGGE. Googling either brings up results, as others have mentioned. Issue is that CTRNAGGE is not a Wii U registry code. It's a 3DS code. It is different to the 3DS version by one letter, the latter reading CTRPAGGE. 045496680145, however, does not show up as a registered UPC code.
I guess someone could have hit the wrong database numbers. After all, CTRNAGGE isn't being drawn by the main Best Buy site, but instead their business subsidiary. If an issue did occur somewhere in a database, it wouldn't be just one site getting the wrong readings. It would be multiple. And that's what gives you multiple incorrect listings from different retailers. A lot of this stuff is automated.

There's stuff they have announced for this year with still no concrete info. GBA VC on Wii U and 3DS Miiverse come to mind. Certainly a Direct of some sort isn't too far fetched.

@EatChildren - I hope it's Bayonetta!
Anyway, the most important thing is when did you hear about this port? I have heard of Wii U ports too through reliable channels (Mickey, Battlefield, Castlevania, etc), but it seems publishers are losing interest and canceling their Wii U projects, the system is bombing after all, so even if your source is legit, the game might be in limbo.

Hum? I finished LM2 a few weeks ago and the frame rate is fine. The game runs amazingly well on the 3DS.

I heard about it within the last week. It "makes sense" to me, I can see why the original source of the rumour might know (due to relatable, believable reasons), but I also can't entirely vouch for them and can see why they'd be mistaken. If it's true, I can understand it and believe it because it's not outrageous. But if it's not I wouldn't be overly surprised, simply because it's not a usual channel.
I'm just being a dick at this point.

That Luigi Mansion team needs to learn how to make Wii U games. HD development is hard
Wo7ldn't be surprised if Miyamoto is recommending his teams to make ports first to get familiar with the the hardware.

That wouldn't be a bad thing if they are able to port it while working on another game. It seemed to help the Zelda team a lot, and it didn't take up much of their time.
They have already made a game for HD platforms though.
Yeah in that Iwata Asks, I thought they said they worked on Dark Moon for 2-3 years.
Now with actual post-game...
Nah we're just messing with you guys! Same port, same graphics! N-space quality!
I'm still skeptical on this one.
Though in general, given how little development time Wind Waker took I do not know why Nintendo doesn't have a devoted team churning out HD ports/remakes to fill in the gaps.
People will clearly buy them and they can be nice transitions from one big title to the next.

Yeah, you also need to consider that NLG is pretty much a C-tier developer. Without close supervision and input from NCL, their titles turn out badly. That's why Miyamoto scrapped all of the original LM2 bosses, that's why the game was delayed by more than a year, and that's why other publishers don't want to work with them unless it's some low budget stuff (Ghost Recon, Captain America; Spider-Man).
Anyway, they already have some experience with the Wii U as they worked on the Wii U Chat.
I'd have to think it would be Next Level themselves. They already have console development experience from this gen, and Luigi's Mansion 2 would likely scale pretty well as is. I'm sure it would get additional benefits, but there's not a massive amount of work needing to be done.
...unless, in my wildest hopes and dreams, they decide to remove the fourth boss from existence and replace it with something else.

Any truth that 3D World was a 3DS game this time last year?
Next Level Games or some other external team. They wouldn't waste EAD studios for a port like this.
Nope
It could have very well started as a 3DS game, not that Nintendo will ever confirm. But that doesn't change the fact that a game like 3D world has a massively increased scope than it would have on the 3DS and looks incredible.
That said I still believe that 3D World was going to be a 3DS game.

Next Level Games should be working on a new Mario Strikers. 2014 is World Cup year after all.

Place it in it's cradle/plug it in?
Im assuming he doesn't game at home during those moments lol.
You don't keep it in standby anyway for Streetpass like your kinda supposed to?
How long exactly are you going without a chance for power?
The idea of it makes no sense. Not even "Nintendo sense".
Forgetting that it's by EAD Tokyo, who've most likely been working on it since Galaxy 2 in 2010 (when 3D Land was being conceptualised)...
Nintendo had very few key first-party titles lined up for Holiday 2013 (Wii Fit U, Wii Party U, and possibly Donkey Kong, and at the time Wind Waker HD was probably just a back-up plan), yet possibly too many 3DS titles (Zelda, Pokemon, MoHu, Mario Party). Furthermore, there would be no need -- nay, it would be stupid -- to put another 3D Mario title on the thing, eating into each other's evergreen sales.
No..they should be working on a wrestling game using Punch Out characters.
