No need.
Just needs huge jumps and speed boosts, along with amazing backgrounds through caves and ruined cities.

All we need now is a suit to simulate g-forces. Probably Nintendo's next console.

I've found that in gaming fandom, the following is true:
When reality is "The company services the dedicated audience and the general audience equally"
Then the fans' reality is "The company has utterly abandoned the dedicated audience"
Yep, gamers are a finicky bunch. They do get legitimately taken advantage of now and then (oddly, though, they often don't care when that happens), but they tend to go into Battle Mode on topics that are exaggerated beyond belief.
Actually, this sounds a lot like people who have strong beliefs in politics, now that I think about it.

#13843: Mystery dark oval resembling Wii Remote IR camera now on DRC?
#13859: Ideaman, "This is NOT the final & definitive controller. The one used in this trailer isn't the 'updated' model."
#14026: cvg mistakes devkit DRC connector for sign that controller won't be wireless
#14055: giflet from Rayman trailer showing NFC in action
#14143: Info recap: "four confirmed Ubisoft titles… Assassin's Creed III… Killer Freaks from Outer Space… Ghost Recon Online… Rayman Legends"
#14221: Miyamoto interview from the Guardian

#14430: Project CARS leaked document screenshots
Also lots of actual speculation concerning DRC gameplay ideas and NFC concepts.
There's an explanation for that here
Not one of the shots from the article, but...
Dat steering wheel.
Didn't even realize, but I called it on the 16th. Go me.

You guys are giving Ideaman WAY too much credit. I have nothing against Ideaman, I actually enjoy his posts as of late. He has grown on me. But come on, read the original post. :lol
Also, Ubisoft and especially Nintendo would not intentionally leak a trailer with a wired dev kit controller.
Thanks for the info! I'd (embarrassingly) assumed Project Cars was just some Pixar junk I didn't give a crap about. Seeing some screens along with the info provided makes it now interesting. Wii never had a Project Gotham / Forza / Gran Turismo type of game... So even though this is multi-platform, it could fill a very much needed void in Nintendo's line-up.

Hmm either they're hopefully optimistic and don't really know, or the range actually allows us to play in our bedrooms and bathrooms after all?
Not if Universal has anything to say about this.
21 years old here, started gaming with Donkey Kong on the NES. When I was younger I was a much more casual gamer, only occasionally playing my NES, though this is probably because I had very few games, and I never did own a SNES of my own when I was growing up. It wasn't until Pokémon came along that I really started getting into video games, and that's when I got my second and third video game systems, the Nintendo 64 and Game Boy Color, respectively. After that, it was Super Smash Bros. that really got me into everything Nintendo. Nintendo games and characters have always clicked with me, whereas other games haven't. That's not to say that I haven't tried many third party games or non-Nintendo consoles, however. But Nintendo is the only company who I know will always have something for me. No matter what, there will always be another game right around the corner from Nintendo that will appeal to me. That's why I stick with Nintendo and am primarily a Nintendo gamer. There are so many games that I enjoy from Nintendo that I have no need to spend money on other consoles, and even if I did there wouldn't be many games that appeal to me (not saying that there aren't any at all), plus with all the Nintendo games that I have now I don't really have time for other games.

okay was the Rayman Legend thing on a blog before he posted about it in detail?
His post before the trailer hit was very detailed so unless he read it on a blog I think we should give him credit that he had his own source

32 and the Nintendo was the first console I got brand new when my parents bought it for me for Christmas with Legend of Zelda, Donkey Kong, and Ghosts and Goblins.
I stayed a fan of Nintendo's through the SNES.
But stopped owning Nintendo systems after that, I skipped the N64 and Gamecube. Instead I got a PS1 and PS2 during those generations.
Nintendo got me back with the Wii and I re-fell in love with the company. I am hugely excited for the WiiU, as the Wii has been my most played system of the generation. (I still love you PS3).
One great thing with the Wii was I was able to collect many titles I missed out on during the GCN era and used VC to play several N64 games I missed out on. This has been an awesome generation. (Metroid Prime 1&2...how could I have missed out on those awesome masterpieces of games!!??!!)

I didn't know that EA actually owns the IP.
Still, you would think that they'd have said it in a more tactful way.
I wouldn't want to think that you could get sued over a WIP teaser/trailer that wasn't even "officially" released, that would be scary. Though if they sue, we might get a new console out of it, Ubisoft to take Sony's spot? ;P
(ye good olde Donkey Kong lawsuit reference)
Here links to your post
That Sony Smash Bros thread is downright insane right now. I was the victim of a classic NeoGAF "50 people quote you and say the same thing" attack. Over a joke :lol
More importantly, with the whole "Nintendo going digital" news, I'm considering importing a Wii U from Japan. I'd be able to buy Japanese retail games digitally, right? Cutting out the middle man for importing games (read: inflating the price like a mother fucker) would be real nice.

why? taking shots at Nintendo seems to give these guys bonus points in some cycles

the wheel buttons looks like M&M's, i'm hungry ><
Like i said, they surely fear nothing, it's positive buzz on the short road leading to E3, and nothing revolutionary revealed. The only tidbit that could annoy Nintendo is the "hey it's wired ?!!!" comments, but informed communities did a good job of self-moderation/correction and precise that it's just dev kits + the explanation of Ubi.
I think he knows...
woo and indeed hoo

Yeah I fully understand. I have no issues that it happened to him. I just think that posts here that do nothing but criticize the posters in the thread are just as bad, if not worse, but it seems like they always choose the most convenient times to do so and not get caught. :/
Anyway, thanks for the explanation and not getting mad.Assuming that post isn't being held against me. lol Though I also understand if it is.
Back on topic... Wait, how is the current discussion on topic?;
The Mods are not omniscient and it would be unfair to expect them to be.
In fact, they explicitly acknowledge this on more than one occasion in the FAQ section of GAF.
For example:
http://www.neogaf.com/forum/showthread.php?t=427771
I respectfully suggest that if any GAFer has any issue with anything that is posted on GAF then then the most fruitful course of action would be to take the Mods up on this invitation and raise it with them.
That would certainly seem to be more productive than complaining about it, without alerting a Mod, and harbouring a sense of grievance.
No?
Oh and 46 here. Or is it 64? One loses track after a certain point.
Lol over my joke post?
You should feel flattered ;P
That's what I'm talking about, yeah it would seem so. Most exciting about Wii U in my eyes for now ♥

Correct
That line of my post explains why Project CARS caused people go get all crazytown in the Wii U thread today.
Nintendo would have the option of blocking your IP by location unless you somehow got your router to force requests from your Wii U to use a proxy in Japan.
So why was Cars shown also?
I gave up after looking at the first page.
Dude, your post was implying that Sony actually copied the use of the primary colors red, yellow, green and blue from Super Smash Brothers.
That's one of the dumbest things I have ever read, it does not even remotely work as a joke, and you got called out for it. I'm glad you backed out of that thread to cool off a little amongst friends.
Well as i said, i hinted about this game on speculation thread 3, even maybe thread 2.
"Expect another Ubi project that isn't AC3, GRO, Freaks, rabbids & your shape" x 10 + the fact that i stated yesterday "it's a confirmation that it will come to Wii U", i knew it was in development on the system, and it wasn't a certainty until today that this project would come on the Wii U.
It's the tier 3 of my attempt to legitimate my info. I guess that even at tier 4 (i have a lot of cartridges left before the E3), some people will still doubt me

Leaked through survey; pic on kotaku, article with all the environments he named.
Same day he made that post.
Yeah they do that on 3DS for stuff like the TV and Video channel, but it's very easy to get around that (PacketX free VPN and Connectify).
Also if you rename your connection to "attwifi" in your router or whatever and remove the security your 3DS will think it's in the "Nintendo Zone".
Can I see that?

I'm not looking at the thread, but it seems like a rather fun game. I hope Nintendo takes a tip from here and makes a similar game on their next console.
Seriously, though, I like this kind of fighter a lot more than the "traditional fighters", especially with all the extra added randomness that even super hardcore Smash fans seem to hate. I even got that TMNT fighter, though it ended up being underwhelming and should have been put in the oven for much longer.
Um, I understand fully. I'm not blaming the mods for the part that you bolded; rather, I'm saying like it seems like those guys wait until they don't think there's anyone there to make them stop.

C'est si bon!
why are you fools still posting in Sony Smash?
I would be so banned in that thread because I truly hate the look of that dark and moody mature game :3
I'm joking!
no

I mentioned that even the colors used for P1/P2/P3/P4 were the same as in Smash Bros! (Obviously those colors are used in many, many games)
Apparently, this game is absolutely not a ripoff of Smash in any way and insinuating such a thing in that thread will be met with "what a Nintendo fanboy!" and "are you dumb?" posts.
Come on Nintendo, I want to buy your games/consoles twice. Don't turn me down =(
But serously your right, the colours scheme is indeed... dull.

This post makes me nostalgic for '80s TV commercials.
If you look at all like your avatar, then I want haptics all the more now…
Okay, that's it, I'm outta here for a while. Time for homego. Please to be leaking something huge while I'm on the road so I have a good evening tonight!
I read it
Best joke I heard today.
I mean, c'mon! It might have a different flavour, but it's clearly based on Smash.
I'm not sure it's legit, but I saw what is apparently a picture of the Sony All-Star devs' office, and it had a Wii in the background.
Bwa ha ha ha

Hey, guys. Leave the discussion of that game out of this thread, please.
Haha oh wow. Your backpedaling is even saltier than the original post.

I really don't see them doing that. As much as people think it's an amazing marketing move, there simply isn't the retail space for such a line.
Now, doing it with like plastic playing cards? Yup, that'll happen.
