Oh GAF

LOL

Company president Satoru Iwata will communicate 'directly' with fans via the internet, focusing on 1st Party titles planned for release in Summer for Nintendo Wii U.

Developments for Wii U from Autumn of this year will be communicated around the timing of E3 with a Nintendo Direct.

Aw Sad So first party, Warioware, Wii Party, Pikmin 3 and Wonderful 101?

"CVG understands Nintendo is preparing a significant global marketing campaign for Wii U this summer, spearheaded by the planned release of several high profile first-party games, one of which is a new 3D Mario title. Pikmin 3, Platinum's The Wonderful 101 and a new Mario Kart are also set to bolster Wii U's second-half release list. The marketing campaign will commence at E3 next month, where the 3D Mario game will also be playable on the show floor. The title will be released before October, pending development delays."

Someone will know this.

I want to get Last of Us and GTA5 at launch (and one other game I cannot remember right now - suggestions please). Yakuza 5 obviously, but that won;t be coming west and if it is it won't until next year.

When are they coming out?

Sony's new game Pataponacantspellthis

The title of the game is a type of Prison layout so it seems to take place in a prison. The title is Panopticon.

We don't know if it is yet; If it is a Vita title I might finally have another reason to get a Vita.

But some are thinking it is PS4 since they don't think it could be done on Vita it looked too clean but that could be a cutscene.

I thought it was cutscene, not because it was brilliant or anything, just seemed to be a video. Detail and the game seems very Vita-ish japanesy type game. A Monster Hunter rival or JRPG? I like the style.

It may not be a rule of math but the chart is incorrect. It says % of sales, not profit, not revenue. How do you have a negative sale? Is the product  being returned more than it is being bought, which is impossible.

Highly unlikely, not impossible!

"This one, unfortunately, didn't do that well. Not because it was a bad game – we wouldn't be honoring it if it were. But because, for whatever reason, it bombed in sales. Maybe parents took offense to the creepy demonic art on its box? Maybe the game was too tough for players to handle? Who knows why, but Demon's Crest somehow managed to earn an interesting distinction among the entire SNES library – it became the only Super Nintendo title in history to actual register negative sales at one point. That means, in the course of one week, there were more people who returned the game to get their money back than there were others who actually purchased and kept it. Ouch."

None of those.  I will have to dig up Leo's preorder thread and figure it out.  I thought there were three for sures (maybe it was Deadly Premonition).
