Wonderful 101 Intro Trailer

Looking forward to it it one day, but pretty concerned at the QTE fest it could potentially be.

Was kinda hoping we'd get to see some high level play that shows an atypical Platinum game rather than the mash mash mashy thats been at all other trade shows.
 
Already pre-ordered, despite not owning a Wii U, or really planning to get one until Bayonetta 2. Doin' my duty.

Is Wonder-Eyes Vergil Troy Baker or what?
 
I like how they've embraced the simple character designs. They look really good. Lots of polish all over the place.
 
I can't get hyped for this due to the gfx. Doesn't it seem like it should look better? The plastic hair? The jaggies? Ugh. I can't even really look at the gameplay because my eyes hurt looking at it. It feels like a PS2 era game to me. I am not trying to flame here but I thought the WiiU could do more than this. It just feels disappointing to me. Am I alone?
 
Hmm hadn't really seen this before, looks really cool style wise. Is the gameplay mostly QTE?

Looks quite appealing still.

I am sure its a deliberate attempt to throw a bunch of shit on the screen and keep it at 60 fps.

Every game does not need tesselated toads and "cinematic" gameplay.

And I think the game looks really great, even if it is low poly compared to some next gen stuff.

It's an action brawler by the guy who made Bayonetta. QTE's are sort of par for the course considering who we're dealing with, but other than that it's pure unadultered action.
 
OK... cool... well help me understand then. Are you guys actually enjoying the look of the game or do you feel as though the gameplay overshadows the look so much as to make it unimportant? If it's the former, I guess that's just a difference of opinion. If it's the latter, what gameplay elements look like so much fun to you? Again, just trying to understand. I don't own a WiiU yet but I am always looking for an excuse to buy one. :D

Have you seen no videos of the game at all? Please go to youtube and search gameplay videos.

Game looks great. I can't wait.
 
^ nope, I had heard of it mentioned a few times but hadn't seen anything

Wow, even better! (not a focus on QTE, thanks, will watch some more clips)

Okay, Pikmin 3, Mario 3D, MK, Wonderful 101.

We're talking now, Nintendo. Actually, Smash too so I guess I'm buying a Wii U :'( might hold off on the 3DS for a while then, gamepad should help anyway.

You lost all credibility with your first post, with me.
 
Nintendo should really setup demo kiosks for this and Pikmin. Helps with any confusion about the games and it's basically advertising.

you feel like that because the low-poly characters remind you of the PS2 days. i like that, it gives me a nostalgic vibe for a game i never played before. everything outside of those characters is running gorgeous. up-to-date modern effects, high-quality animations in use everywhere.

right now i like the graphics and the concept. the gameplay i haven't paid much attention to. it's kamiya so i'm sure it is great.

I like that it looks like a toy city. That gets fucked up by robots.
It's not supposed to look realistic.

It's why I play videogames: looks arcadey, silly and creative.

And 60 FPS.
 
Dat Gavan reference.

Oh god not so many people will catch that but this game really tickles my toku fanboyism.

Now if only I have a Wii U. If I get one in the future I'll get this!
 
Like pikmin, the majority of this game is viewed up above. So viewing up close will reveal some things.

Itll have up to 101 characters on screen at once and it runs @60fps.

Theres even five player co-op, each with your own squad, and it still runs at 60fps.

Watch the whole thing to see the charm and spectacle on hand

Here a glimpse at the bad guys, I guess the special direct will show if there is other departing locations from the city. I would want to see more of the puzzles scattered around the mission like reviving flowers with a circle drawing.
