Thanks for the congrats guys, it's been a wild week
Anyway, in my post I was talking about my desires for Wii U "power" and thinking that maybe from what Ideaman has said it's not going to really satisfy quite to the level I want. However, I always keep forgetting about the Zelda and the Garden demo's which I thought were pretty damned impressive. The Garden floor demo more-so I feel because the area was much more open than the Zelda one and unless there was some trickery it was a double render job too (Screen and uPad). Given it was such early hardware I probably shouldn't be *quite* so pessimistic.
Still, I can't work out why the hell Nintendo are so damned secretive about EVERYTHING, even stuff we know's in development.
That's exactly what happens to me. Being true, i'm in a bad mood right now concerning the wii U specs. I'm not very optimistic, but then, i think about the garden demo and it's GI, and the Zelda demo and i think it will be enough for me.
The bad thing is that i realmy thing that third parties will be lazy as f*ck (again)

Ehhh, really doubt N-Gamer will have anything worth talking about.
We shall see.
We shall see.
I thought DoA
did well. That's what it says in TK's 2011 earnings presentation, anyway:I'm with you in that I believe they might release DoA5 some time after launch, though.

This might be old, I am not sure, but will post anyway. Is this the March issue for Nintendo Gamer that will have info on AC3?
Wait, a new Mario Bros 3D for Christmas? Is that real? How have I not seen this???

Or a hint about Crytek making Time Splitters 4 for the Wii U!
Well, a new 2D Mario for the 3DS has been confirmed for this year, yes.
There are times when I don't see costumers in days and since I have total access to internet
I spend my time here on GAF or doing some hand job
I'm not sure, tbh, but it should be out this week or the next one.
It feels weider seeing PS3/360/Wii U and it will get worse in a couple years... Wii U/PS4/720
And below "The Truth"
Guess they will up every known fact. Or did those magazines have any exclusive information in the past?
No i don't take it hard for myself, i've seen far worse, it's the internet as one say. It's just the faculty, the ability of some people, to get in a trance state, for what is supposed to be an entertainment, that still impress me

I don't see why developers feel that way about the Wii U. It made sense with the Wii considering that the main controller was something completely different, but that's not the case with the Wii U. I think many people expect third party developers to just put menus in the controller screen. There really isn't anything wrong with that. That would actually work well for a lot of games, and MGS would be one of them.

Thing is - we have no idea if what he's saying is true. And he's ultra super vague about almost everything, talks in circles and recites things that are plainly obvious. Yet, people gobble it all up because they're in some sort of "I need to have a fix, anything. ANYTHING" state.

I'm getting the terrible feeling that Nintendo has ruined it's reputation with 3rd parties to the point that it won't be fixed.

Still doesn't excuse the liable being spewed by commentators on a no name site.

Oh, did it make it to 300k? I just remembered the awful Japanese debut.
300k isn't amazing, but considering the lack of new content, they probably made a tidy profit.

Lower tier "news" websites nobody knows about being bitter about having less news, users, impact and PIs than a forum they don't post on and can't sell as a serious source, is all. If IdeaMan contacted them instead of posting on GAF, he would be an "absolutely reliable insider source with great reputation and insight on the gaming industry".
Videogame "journalism" ho!

Never heard of Nintendo gamer before, neither I recall any leaks/exclusive preview stuff coming out of magazines other than Famitsu or Edge or Game Informer perhaps.
Not saying this is fake, yet it seems a little strange that this magazine has laid its hands on Darksiders 2 for WiiU whereas other major magazines are apparently without a clue.
So, in case this magazine actually exists, is that number already out orisit just being announced?
If it's already out, of course I'm waiting a report from those who can read it.
Well, I agree, I asked him once to be.. let's say... direct
but apparently being vague and cryptic is the way he rolls.
I take everything from everyone with a grain of salt tho
It can be fixed, but they really have to make some huge changes and sacrifices to archive it.
Also this.
The only thing missing is the word 'shocking' before the word truth
No.
They're a long-running magazine. I make no claims about the 'quality' of the magazine, other than they have a pretty happy UK fan-base, but they've only just got their own website. Obviously they'll be fleshing the archive out with the major material from past issues.
But it's patently wrong to say they're "claiming they are new", when they quite clearly state which issue which feature is from at the top of the page.

It's been around for a while, and that issue will exist in people's hands soon.
Still wouldn't expect anything from it.
It exists, not fake. Here is their website:
http://www.nintendo-gamer.net/
They are suppose to reveal some new info on AC3 in the March issue and the issue should be out 23rd of March. NOthing about AC3 in the front page makes you wonder though
I wasn't super vague about the Wii U power range, its memory, the OS/background, dev kit & sdk numbers, the factual resolution of third-parties games currently in development, their use of the padlet, etc. Some other posts are more vague, yes, it's because i want to tease and not spill the beans in a 1 sentence message, spoon-feed the thread. Look at all the interesting speculation about how taxing the rendering on the padlet that developed, it's more fun that "it's like that, end of the story", for some aspects of the Wii U.
For the "i still doubt him", well, i justified myself in a wall of text in thread 2, and i tried to legitimate my information through lherre (by relaying to him things not heard before concerning the Wii U), and he was quite positive on what we talked about in private. It's the best i can do. Now, take my messages as you like, but every time it seems you have some kind of grudge against them.

I find Swastika Man offensive.
I should feel happier, but I don't. I really want the Wii U to be in the same power level as MS's and Sony's next consoles, but sadly I still feel it will be way underpowered in comparison
Why don't you just wait to know the specs of both consoles to make such statement?
seriously, this shit is getting annoying.
Saw this. Thought of this thread.
Hilarious.

No, in the DRC (display remote controller) in possession of third-parties right now, there is no 3D (pictures in relief) feature. And no haptic screen for the few believers
Now, foreign studios weren't aware of some functions of the Wii-mote until rather late in development, but it wasn't as significant as the previously mentioned ones, so i doubt it will be the case again (for big kept-in-secret things on the tablet).

If there is a secret to the U Tab, it won't be a 3D screen, I can tell you that.

By that logic, this thread would not be able to produce even a single post.
