Battlefield 4 not coming to Wii U

http://www.neogaf.com/forum/showthread.php?t=530418

Battlefield 4 will not see a release on Wii U, DICE has confirmed.

Speaking to VideoGamer.com last night, creative director Lars Gustavsson explained that the decision to skip Wii U was to "ensure that [the team] deliver something good", rather than "risking" the project by stretching the team too thin.

"I think overall for me as creative director, number one is to deliver a really great game and experience," said Gustavsson on the subject of Battlefield 4 on Wii U. "Sometimes, at least for us, it's focus on what you do well and what you know well, and ensure that you deliver something good than trying a bit too much, stretching yourself too thin and risking it.


"I'd rather play it safe, deliver something really good and then look at the future and what could possibly be done than trying a bit too hard and [failing]."


Battlefield 4 is the latest high-profile multi-platform title to skip Wii U, joining Dead Island: Riptide and Saints Row 4.

If you pre-ordered it, you got RE5 for free. Or basically both games for $40.

Why would they not be in all versions? Its built into the gameplay (unfortunately).

Clearly what Tomb Raider needed to push it into success was about double the amount of action and set pieces. This is what everyone wants in all games today, how could they not realise?

I don't think it's so much that the sales of those recent games are what did in Wada on their own but that there was a large financial hole dug in Square-Enix that was hoped to be filled unrealistically by those games. His fate was most likely already sealed.

Wada was an idiot. He was always saying how MMO's were the future and single-player games needed to be done away with. Then he had Square Enix focus almost totally on FF, KH, and DQ for years, ignoring all the other great IP's they had. Maybe they will get someone in there who will try to steer them back to the way they used to be...

Square-Enix claims that Tomb Raider (3.4M sold), Hitman: Absolution (3.6M), and Sleeping Dogs (1.75M) have all failed to meet their sales expectations. What the Hell? Those are great numbers! What were they expecting? This industry is all fucked up.

That chart they showed was messed up as it wasn't clear on if the games had acheived those sales (I don't think they have) or whether the numbers were estimated sales for the fiscal year. I think they were estimated sales and they were saying that those games never reached the numbers.

Tomb Raider fails because its all a giant tease, Lara never gets "them" out properly. By the end gamers have such pent up frustration they'll jerk off to TV Guide in the bathroom just to get it out of their system.

Battlefield 4 not coming to Wii U

But........ I thought EA and Nintendo had an unprecedented partnership? cheeky

I guess no one read the article I highlighted yesterday?

http://www.notenoughshaders.com/2013/03/25/the-sexual-history-between-nintendo-and-electronic-arts/

The Sexual History Between Nintendo and Electronic Arts

"They don’t have much affection for one another, but they can never seem to get away from each other. "

Seems Nintendo rejecting Origin as the Wii U's online service got EA into spite mode.

And what about this?

RE6 is only 40 bucks on Steam... Can't see myself getting up for this one yet.

If you pre-ordered it, you got RE5 for free. Or basically both games for $40.

Were QTEs present in all RE4s or just the Wii version?

Why would they not be in all versions? Its built into the gameplay (unfortunately).

No idea. I read a review awhile ago that implied they were unique to the Wii version. I thought that sounded bizarre.

Robio, the update is up in Japan.

Not sure how I feel about playing it on the Wii Tablet. I'm sure I'll adjust, but right now I play MH on my big screen with all the maps, stat bars, etc strictly kept on the tablet. There's just so much going on that I like to try to keep the battle screen completely free of clutter. I'm sure I'll deal after getting used to it though.

And speaking of Monster Hunter 3U I've just opened up the 4 star quests. Yesiree, in ancient Greece I'm what they would have called a badass.

Eurogamer Italy review of NFS Most Wanted U - while we wait for the Digital Foundry teardown

Eurogamer said:

The base looks more like the PC version than the console, due to more refined textures and more sophisticated effects. Boundary details, such as mountains and rocks, but also the road and the buildings are much more detailed than the versions for Xbox 360 and PS3. Even the sporadic frame drops at more heated times with many cars, debris and smoke on screen are completely gone and the whole thing runs pegged at 30 FPS.

Find also a renewed lighting system that, besides giving a better textured environment, floods the screen with lens flare, sun shaft and very artistic effects, in addition to sparking blaze-ups and that proverbial light at the darkest day. Bearing in mind that the game can also run both on the television and on the GamePad at the same time, the (graphics difference is not insignificant - GG paraphrases dodgy translation), and this should encourage the  Nintendo skeptics ahead of future productions. The only flaws are to be found in pop-in/pop-out that you occasionally see at higher speeds, but does not affect, in any way the gameplay.

9/10

"Imagine a shooter, like Battlefield, with jaw-dropping graphics and smooth character animations of the Frostbite engine, brought to you on a Nintendo system with that breakthrough controller."

To quote GAF:

3rd parties: "Nintendo, increase the sales of your console 100% completely by yourself with absolutely no help from us. THEN we'll start releasing games for it."

To quote a Eurogamer user:

It's a valuable lesson for Nintendo.

Despite what 3rd parties said during the Wii gen....It doesn't matter how capable your machine is or how much you tailor the controller to suit 3rd parties...they still won't support you ....so do whatever you want to as it won't make a scrap of difference.

They've done the screens up from Ninja Gaiden Z like a comic book
