How good are trine 2 and nano assualt?
How are the jaggies on these games?

I don't understand buying full retail game at full price through DD. At least the disc version will have some resale value down the road when you get tired of it. That's just me though.
Could be because more people purchased the disc version of that game....same with Nintendo Land.

I've been considering Nano Assault. I might pull the trigger; people seem to like it and the 3DS version too well enough.
Chasing Aurora might need more publicity.
I wouldn't put too much weight behind these charts. I mean, Darksiders II might be above Ninja Gaiden 3, but Ninja Gaiden's Miiverse community is a couple thousand members larger.
Correct me if i'm wrong, but the Miiverse number is just the number of people participating in discussion, they don't have to necessarily own the game. At least that is my theory.

Tekken is too far down, cmon guys! Meatiest fighter of this decade!
That's true, but I think it's a better measurement of how well a game is doing than this list. At least the Miiverse communities have a number on them. I think the fact that NG3 has 4,041 members and DSII has 1,669 says a lot more than seeing DSII at 11 and NG3 at 12.
It could potentially mean that the Darksider 2 community is just less vocal. I mean you have to factor in that there are people playing the game that may not post to miiverse. A lot of the times I will see people write "Is this game good?" and possibly more people are interested in Ninja Gaiden than Darksiders. Just a guess though.
I guess it could also be that DSII doesn't have screenshots enabled. People will just post a nice Ayane or Momiji screenshot for the hell of it in the NG3 community. Probably for easy yeahs too.

This makes me sad that so many people are buying this - people buying this game either bought the Wii U Basic set and then purchased the game anyways, losing out on the extra stuff you get with Deluxe set basically for free, or they are getting a Deluxe and then buying a second copy of the game so they don't have to swap discs to play it.

That's me. I'll put the disc in once to make sure my drive works, but that's it.10. Nintendo Land

If we're to trust developer's own words, it should be the best console version.Is Trine 2 a good port? I'm really interested in it.
I see Wii U owners are big Call of Duty fans.

Blops 2 isn't on the eShop. And, it has the fourth largest Miiverse community behind NL, NSMBU, and ZombiU.
This is something Nintendo probably shouldn't have given third parties freedom over. I expect all PS4/720 games to be on PSN/XBLA as well as having their retail versions.
I agree. We originally wanted to do a -20% discount in North America too - just like we are doing in Europe right now - but it wasn't possible just yet.I really want to grab Trine 2 on the eShop because I adored the first game but I just can't get myself to jump at the $20 price point. I know it sounds silly but I have so many other games to play right now that even a $5 price cut would have made me grab it instantly. Ugh.

Yep, and still is, and 1200 MSP on XBLA. On Wii U we include the new Goblin Menace expansion (worth $7.99 on Steam) and the Wii U exclusive level Dwarven Caverns, so the $19.99 is not bad value in that sense ($14.99 + $7.99 on Steam +x for the exclusive). Of course there have been and will be more sales and discounts in the Holiday season, so that's going to make the price difference a little bigger - which we are trying to compensate with the -20% launch discount in Europe and possibly in North America later in December...Would have double dipped on Trine if it was cheaper. It was $15 when it launched on PSN, wasn't it? :/

We are happy to see Trine 2: Director's Cut up there. The sales have been good and we're loving the user comments.

We're thinking of doing the -20% for the Holidays though... nothing certain yet but we think it makes sense, although I'm not sure if there's enough time since the launch to not anger anybody... Maybe we'll time it with the update that we plan to bring in mid-to-late December (featuring Voice Chat, Wii U Pro Controller support, minor fixes, new languages like BR-PT, and additional vividness to the graphics so it will look even more awesome). We also plan to bring the demo in December.
Let's see how it goes... Looks like everybody's happy with the game so we have good reason to be too.

Tekken is too far down, cmon guys! Meatiest fighter of this decade!
As in.. No jaggies? Or extremely visible jaggies?Both are fantastic games that are a lot deeper than they lead you to believe on first glance.
The jaggies are some of the system's best yet!
It's worth mentioning Tekken was added several days after launch, so everything else on the chart had more time to sell. Same for NBA 2K13, which didn't even make top 20.Tekken is too far down, cmon guys! Meatiest fighter of this decade!
Less freedom isn't Steam-like. :3This is something Nintendo probably shouldn't have given third parties freedom over. I expect all PS4/720 games to be on PSN/XBLA as well as having their retail versions.
I wouldn't be surprised if ASR2 ends up selling best on Wii U overall. It really was a smart launch title for Sega: Sonic's already huge with Nintendo fans, ASR2's on the short list of NOT-inferior ports and it's the only racer at launch so it's cornering the genre for consumers. EA really blew it by holding back NFSMW for Q1.Heh Sonic always sells well on Nintendo stuff. Nice list

Par for the course for them to be quite honest.EA really blew it by holding back NFSMW for Q1.
