Rare could've helped Microsoft gain new users through their Banjo franchise.  Why do they not create a proper sequel?  And where the hell is Conker?

Well, if Nintendo weren't such cheap asses, they would pay Gamestop to sell their games just like all of the other companies do.

Talking to the manager at myGamestop, I discovered that they have a Hyrule Warriors demo there.  Why couldn't we have one from the eshop? Easy way to raise awareness and get people aware of your game.  Sigh!

Rare should have done a true Banjo sequel, then followed it up with the Nuts & Bolts experiment. It's a shame Nuts & Bolts killed that franchise; and it wasn't even a bad game.

I still want that rumored 3rd person Perfect Dark game; I know it wasn't real, but they should make that, goddammit!

Hmm, maybe I'll unzip my pants, paint my wang like a tentacle and go to one of these conventions.  Let's see what happens. See if anyone notices.

Fixed.

You know what really pisses me off about the Wii U's menu system?

The fact that they force you to look at that fucking stupid screen with all the mii's running across it. There is NO POINT to that screen whatsoever!! Its fucking useless!!! So you click the X button to get the actual real menu on your tv screen...the one with the bubble folders that is basically like an HD upgrade to the original Wii's menu system. Only, you can't navigate the damn thing while its on your tv, only when its on the tiny gamepad screen.

I really hate the way they set that up.

Not really, but it's still a pretty big failure on their part. The phone is currently $0.99, and it's still not selling, lol.

I honestly never even heard of the phone until its failure was brought up.
Maybe the free advertising will save it. Lol

I dont get this, are you using the pro controller or something? The whole menu is made for the touchscreen of the U pad, when you switch it to the big screen you have to use the wii remote to navigate it. But that's all pointless because the touchscreen is better than using a stick and dpad to navigate things anyway.

“I don’t need another military space marine game. I don’t probably need another racing game. In terms of trying things that are new and have a unique reason to be in our portfolio, it’s gotta be a commitment from us as a first-party, absolutely.”

This Spencer quote, after Titanfall and two Forzas with Halo on the way. Rare made a new Perfect Dark, it sucked, Rare made a new Banjo, it supposedly sucked too. So Kinect was the obvious pairing since that sucks too Nyaa

Nooo...if I was using the pro controller I would be able to navigate the bubbles on the tv, hilariously enough. My point was its stupid that you can't use the gamepad to navigate the bubble menu ON THE TV SCREEN. Of course, then you wouldn't be able to zoom in and out on all the dumbass mii's that are now on the gamepad screen....

Its just an annoyance I'm not fond of when it comes to the Wii U menu system. I don't see what makes the touchpad better...just because I can touch it? Meh, I'd rather do it on my TV regardless, even if it was a duplicate of the gamepad screen. Just get rid of the useless mii screen is all I ask.

I just don't get it, what's the problem with the useless Mii screen? I never even look at it? There are two displays, you can just ignore the mii one. Touch screens are always better, like tablets vs mouse and keyboard. You can't even compare them. It is stupid that you can't use the wii u pad to control the menu if you flip it to the tv screen but I almost never do that. There's no reason to.

Again, this will mostly fall on deaf ears but Samurai Warriors 4 for PS4 is --REALLY, REALLY-- GOOD ! ! !

It may not have the instantly recognizable characters or locales of Hyrule Warriors, but the gameplay is --SUPER-- solid!  GASP

I get what Edge is saying.  Most of us have these nice HD screens and want to use them.  Why can't the Gamepad and TV show the Wii U bubble menu simultaneously so you can watch on the big screen and control with the tablet?
